was hunting?” asked Mist Flower, after licking Breeze Leaf on the cheek.

“Good, there's enough for the whole clan.” concluded Breeze Leaf.

“I sure miss hunting, the days when we would hunt together...” remembered Mist Flower.

“The butterfly wolves were in our territory. That was sort of suspicious.” realized Breeze Leaf.

“Go tell Blue Feather Star, she'll know what to do.” suggested Mist Flower. With that, Breeze Leaf headed towards the nursery, where Blue Feather Star was talking to Holy Swirl.

“The pups are growing fast and healthy. We'll have more warriors in no time.” said Holy Swirl to Blue Feather Star.

“Good. We need warriors for battles.”

“Blue Feather Star!” greeted Breeze Leaf.

“Breeze Leaf! How's Mist Flower?”

“She's doing fine with the four pups.”

“Good! What brings a father like you here?”

“I am here to report that butterfly wolves were spotted in our territory.”

“Hmm, I didn't recieve any letters from their clan about a visit. I'll go talk to them. In the mean time, go get the warriors ready.” directed Blue Feather Star. Then, Breeze Leaf headed off to Yellow Pelt.

“Get the warriors ready for battle, from Blue Feather Star.” ordered Breeze Leaf. Yellow Pelt nodded and howled to signify the warriors. Red Stripe heard it and started howling. Red Stripe was one of the prettiest dogs of the clan. She had a shiny red coat and beautiful red eyes to match it. Her tail was soft and beautiful. The rest of the clan howled back. Blue Feather Star got to her place.

“The Butterfly Wolf Clan was on our territory. We must be nice, but ready for surprises.” announced Blue Feather Star. Suddenly, butterflies started flying all over the place. It blinded Mist Flower. Out from the trees came howling. King Butterfly II flew out first. Then the rest of the clan.

“Attack!” he shouted.

 

“Get ready everyone!” ordered Blue Feather Star. The butterfly wolves had an advantage, they could fly.

“Grey Swirl! Protect the nursery!” cried Mist Flower. Gray Swirl ran towards the nursery. Suddenly, a butterfly wolf popped up.

“Kill the children!” cried one of them. Gray Swirl jumped up and bit him and the wolf fell down. She ran and ran and defended the nursery. The pups were whining and crying for all they heard was chaos. Yellow Pelt used the golden bracelet to fly up and kill some of them. Mist Flower ran to protect the apprentices.

“Go hide, when we need you, we will call you.” she directed. All of the pups ran to hide, as if they were playing hide and seek.

“Look out!” cried Breeze Leaf as he jumped towards Mist Flower. She ducked and Breeze Leaf scratched one of the flying wolves. Blood and dead bodies lied everywhere. Queen Pink III was fighting at all her strength. Then, Blue Feather Star met with King Butterfly II.

“Why are you doing this to your people and our people?” asked Blue Feather Star.

“Selfish fool! Do you not know how much we suffered? Our land, our hope, our love, has been destroyed because of your selfish acts! If you had asked some warriors to come defend us, this would have never happened!” complained the king. Blue Feather Star saw his eyes turn black and red. The evil had gotten into the butterfly wolves. What was once impossible was now possible.

“Wake up King Butterfly! The evil is controlling you!” cried Blue Feather Star. But it didn't work. He was lunging towards Blue Feather Star. She quickly dodged away.

“I don't want to hurt you.” she warned. But he still didn't listen. Blue Feather Star escaped from him and ran towards Holy Swirl, who was also at the nursery.

“How do we get the evil out of the clan?” she asked.

“Here, have this. Throw it on the king and everything will go back to normal.” said Holy Swirl as she handed a bottle of potion to her. Blue Feather Star ran towards the battle, holding the potion. She spotted King Butterfly II, and threw it at him. There was a big cloud of smoke, black and white smoke. The smoke slowly turned into a shape of yin and yang. It was the symbol of balance, good and evil. King Butterfly stood there, all confused. Blue Feather went up to him.

“If you ever need something, you can always ask nicely.” said Blue Feather Star. He looked at Blue Feather Star and nodded.

“Thank you. I never thought I would turn out like this.” thanked the king.

 

The friendship of the two clans remained strong. Blue Feather Star even sent some warriors to help defend his territory. In the end, all went well. And the balance was back in place.

Chapter 4: The Annual Horse Race

It was that time of the year again. The time for the Annual Horse Race. The course is raced by apprentices of the Horse Clan. They have sort of like their own religion. The purpose of the race is to see who shall be the future leader of the Horse Clan will be. According to the Chicken Goddess, a race is the perfect way to determine who is the future leader. This event happened during mid summer to early fall. That was when most of the foals were apprentices. The Horse Clan was a mix of 2 types of horses. The royal horses and the shaggy horses. Royal horses are skinnier and look beautiful when they are full grown. Shaggy horses have messed up hair when they reach adulthood. They are stronger during apprentice age. But when it comes to racing, no one is sure who will win the annual race.

 

It was July, the month of the Annual Horse Race. Each apprentice was getting ready to race. Some got into gangs to go for a 10 km run.

“Run away shaggy! The new leader will be me!” cried Speed, the fastest runner of all apprentices.

“The only place I'm running to is the finish line!” argued Sunshine. The foals continued arguing about who is going to be the next winner.

“Alright, settle down little foals!” calmed Clover, “Shouldn't you be practising?”

“If we practise too much, we might not have enough energy for the race.” complained Treetop.

“Alright, we'll see which lazy bum will get to the finish line first.” chuckled Clover as she walked away.

“I'm gonna have a huge lap around the land,” bragged Speed, “I was born to be a boarder patrol and runner!” The girls looked at him with awe.

“Can I run with you?” asked Swirl.

“I wish I could be like you...” agreed Woody. The other ponies were admiring Speed, thinking he would be the next leader. But River, Speed's brother, was no match. He couldn't be that fast. His brother had a mentor! And him? He was left alone running around the boarder 7 times a day. Speed bragged about how he ran 10 laps each day. But really, he was only running with his friends for 5 laps.

“Can I please join?” begged Forest.

“No shaggy! You're too fat and slow for us! You're only gonna slow us down!” teased Speed. Forest ran away with tears in her eyes. The other royal foals laughed, except for some of them.

“You can run with me.” said River.

“Thanks.” sniffed Forest.

“Can we run with you to?” asked some other shaggy horses. They all looked sad. They were not being accepted for who they are.

“Sure!” replied River.

“Hey look! River's with the shags!” teased Speed.

“It's not really nice, Speed.” admitted Violet.

“Oh, so now you're on their side too?”

“I'm just saying, it's not nice.”

“It's not nice, meh meh meh meh! I don't CARE!”

“Then I'm gonna run with River. No one wants a mean leader like you!” Violet stomped away. Speed was heartbroken (Violet was his crush), but didn't actually show his feelings.

“Fine! Be that way losers!” screamed Speed. Wing (Speed's mentor and dad) came over.

“Time to train Speed.” said his dad.

“Alright! I'll take some of my friends for a lap or two.” said Speed.

“But remember, the race is in two days, they can't come along during the last day.” concluded Wing. Wing was really proud of Speed. He loved River too, but he wasn't as proud. Mist Glow, his mother, was proud of both of her sons. She knew River could fit in somehow. The gang set off with Wing, also the fastest runner. River just stood there with the other horses.

“Shall we begin?”

 

From behind them was Brave. He was probably the best warrior, runner, fighter than any of the horses. But he wasn't fast enough when it was his turn to run the race. He could have been leader.

“You want to train us?!” asked Tree.

“Of course. I don't have anything to do in my spare time, and I think you guys are a good team!” admired Brave. They all looked at each other in disbelief. Brave, the best warrior horse, wanted to train them!

“Of course, of course!” shouted all of them.

“Then let's begin.” he said. They followed him to the edge of the border, where their neighbour, the Rat Clan stood in border patrol.

“Let's start with stretching.” he said.

“Stretching?!” said Stripe with surprise.

“Of course, stretching is recommended for runners so they don't pull a muscle when they run.” replied Brave.

“What kind of stretches are we going to do?” asked Violet.

“You'll see,” explained Brave, “the stretches we need to do involve our chest, legs and head.” The foals mimicked the leader as he was performing stretches. After 3 minutes, they stopped.

“We're now going to do some trotting around that field.” he said, pointing at a little meadow.

“Why are we wasting our time doing warm up?” wondered River.

“Because our bodies need to get ready and know we are about to run 10 laps around the border.” explained Brave.

“TEN LAPS?!” cried Forest.

“The actual race is 12 laps. If you want to win, you have to practise. Each day increasing the distance.” he said. They followed him as he trotted around the field.

“Remember, this is not galloping, it's trotting.” he reminded. After 5 minutes, Brave ran to the border's edge.

“We are now ready to begin.” he concluded. Some of the ponies were panting and sweating. But he started anyways. He started off slow. Some of them went ahead of him.

“Don't go too fast!” he warned, “You might run out of energy along the way!” The rest of them stayed behind them.

 

The first lap was refreshing. The second lap was a bit weird, but he kept on going. The third, fourth and fifth lap were a bit tiring. When they made it to the sixth lap, some of them were walking. But River kept running.

“It's important to keep a steady pace and never stop running no matter how slow you are.” he pointed out. When they reached the last lap, they bumped into Speed and his gang.

“Hello shags!” insulted Speed. But he didn't notice that Brave was there with them.

“What do you mean by 'shags'?” he asked with sarcasm. Speed looked up and saw Brave talking to him. The rest of the gang looked at the running foals and Brave.

“Nothing...” said one of them.

“So Brave, why train them?” asked Sunshine.

“They have great potential. And someone was being really bad...” he said looking at Speed. His cheeks started turning red.

“Sorry, we have to go now. We're finishing our 10 laps.” added River. Speed stared at them as they galloped off.

“Come on! Let's go! We can do 20 laps!” he shouted to his gang.
