He was virtually invisible. Huge, but invisible. His black coat, drawn tight around packed muscle, was slick with the rain that fell. The lightning flashed across the sky, racing the wind and illuminating his figure. His long, thick mane and tail dripped with water. His ears were pinned against his skull, and his daggers struck sparks against the stone plateau. The king had come looking for his princess. A wicked smile danced on his lips, and his eyes were as cold and lifeless as stone. He let out a terrifying cry, a scream that would make the forests tremble and the mountains shake. And somewhere below him, a dappled silver mare lifted her head up, fear in her eyes. And she turned, sprinting off, a large silver she-cat following her.

Snow heard a frighting cry near her.She tried to see where it was coming from.Snow knew it was coming from in front of her,but she couldn't see anything.

The lightning flashed through the sky, revealing the stallion, a meter away. He snorted, charging into her like a freight train. He held onto her nec'. Have you seen her? Silver arabian, with a pesky cat following her around?" His voice was deep, harsh, and ice cold, meaning he was no friend.

Snow gasped,her eyes wide."N-no,i don't know who you'r talking about!"

He snorted in frustration, and reared, hooves slamming down and cracking the rock. He snorted, turning and charging across the plateau. "Pssssst." Came a voice from the dark behind her.

Snow turned around to see what had made the noise.

Two pairs of blight blue eyes peeked out at her. A silver arab head poked out. "Come on, beforw her comes back."

She followed her."Who are you?And who is him?"

"I'm Tide, this is silver." She said, the silver cat hopping up onto the mares back, sitting.
