TENDER HEART
Not again, not again not again. She'd already seen the tide pull out once and come roaring back. Had they already forgotten? Fear clenched her gut, winding tight, the signs clear as day of another tsunami. 'Haven't we suffered enough?' she wondered to herself.
"It's not safe!" Her cry was likely on deaf ears. Those that were injured from the first were in the care of healers back in the castle, and she had come out to find others. She had not expected them to fall for the trap once more. Hooves pressed down, digging in to wet sand and kicking up soft clods of it as her wings spread on either side of her head, wide, ruffled, worried.
She skid slightly, kicking up a small spray of water and some bits of shell as she spied one mare, moving toward her and easily waving a hoof to shoo away the crabs. "Go! Go! Shoo!" Her head ducked and she rolled one of the crustaceans over, huffing and lifting her head, eyes worried for the unicorn mare.
"We must get the others away from here. We cannot have more injured." Not with the storms in the distance and the thunder birds riding in on them. They were caught between a rock and a hard place, and needed to find their high ground and shelter, fast.
