(a spirit from heaven will come down and give her a new life.)
A couple of weeks pass. Then a spirit came down and did a spell for Nevada. Giving her a life. After the spirit did what he did. Nevada rose from her feet and searched for Midnight. Then when she found him. She nudged him.

Midnight had been almost engulfed by his sorrow during the weeks after Nevada's death. His only reason for living was for Twilight. He was completely preoccupied with simply trying to keep her alive. With Nevada gone and Twilight not yet weaned, Midnight was faced with a formidable problem as to how he was going to feed her. As the days and soon weeks went by, Twilight's strength waned until she was a mere shadow of a filly. She was hardly able to walk, or even stand. Midnight was helpless to do anything, and felt worthless. He tried to find another mare who could nurse her, but he found no one and was left to watch his precious daughter -- the only living remnant of his beloved Nevada -- starve to death.
Morning came hazy one morning, a few weeks after Nevada's untimely death, when Midnight awoke to find Twilight hardly breathing. She was barely skin and bones by now and he was weak and tired from staying up with her so many nights and trying to find ways to get food into her. He moved close to her, wrapping himself around her and trying to warm her cold little body. Silent tears slid down his face as he layed there, praying for all he was worth that Twilight wouldnt be taken from him as well.
Suddenly, he felt something nudge his back. He spun around, on his feet in a second despite his worn condition. He stumbled back almost as if he had been struck a physical blow when he saw Nevada standing there.
Thats it....I've gone crazy.....
He shook his head and blinked hard, staring intensely at her as she stood there. He looked back in the direction he had taken her body. He had laid it out among the trees in the forest after she had died. Looking back at Nevada, he began shaking hard. He reached out slowly, until his velvety muzzle touched hers. When he realized she was real, he could hardly belive it. He stumbled back slightly, tears pouring profusely from his eyes. He looked down at little Twilight, still struggling for breath on the ground.
"Nevada?" he said, his voice raspy and rough.

"midnight." she nickered. She came up and licked him on his cheek. Then licked his tears dry. Then she looked at Twilight."Oh no." she nickered and got down. She nuzzled her and let her nurse. She couldnt believe it. Nevada almost a month of milk aready in her. She couldnt run out. "its ok mommy is here. Im not going anywhere." she nickered.

Midnight could hardly belive it. He looked at her with awe in his eyes as he felt her touch and watched her feed Twilight.
"I...I saw you...you were dead. I took your body into the forest...."
He was confused and bewildered, but exctatic. "Oh Nevada....You'll never know how sorely you were missed...." he said, his voice cracking with emotion. He layed down beside his mate and daughter as Twilight nursed ravenously for the first time in almost a month.

"i remember completely going black. My whole life flashed before my eyes. oh midnight. I sware im never leaving you again." She nickered. She licked Twilight. "there ya go little one. Drink up." she nickered. She felt how his heart was when she died. "Midnight im soo sry. I didnt want to go. I tried hanging on to you and Twilight. But i couldnt." she nickered. SHe then but her ebony black dial on his shoulder. She could feel his warm body against her dial. "im sry, im really really sry. My heart told me to stay with you. but my body couldnt." she cryed. Tears came down her eyes. She ashamed of her self.

Midnight stared down at her, awe still written on his face. He was still having trouble believing that all this wasnt just a dream, even as he felt her against his shoulder and side.
"I know you tried, my love, I know." he said, trying to conceal the heavy emotion in his voice. "It's not your fault...not at all." He nuzzled her, closing his eyes and breathing in a long breath of her scent. A peice of him had seemed to die along with Nevada, and he struggled as he tried to put that peice back into place.
Twilight nursed hungrily, milk streaming down the sides of her mouth as she drank. She had been very close to death before her mother had come back and was still weak and thin. After nursing for quite some time, Twilight finally stopped eating and looked up at her mother and father with smiling eyes, so bright on her tiny, gaunt face. "Mamma...." she said softly. She hadn't spoken again since her mother's death, though Midnight had tried to coax her, but she had still learned. Listening attentively to Midnight's words through her seeming hunger induced haze.
Midnight couldnt stop the tears from coming to his eyes at the sound of Twilight's voice. He reached over and nuzzled her gently, thanking the heavens that she had been spared such a heartless death. He then let his dark maw move to Nevada, gently carressing her face, wiping away the tears as his own streamed down his face.

Her harks perked up when she heard Twilight. Then she looked at her. "what did you say. Did you just say mamma." she nikered. Then she nuzzled her. Then she looked at Midnight. "when did she start talking?" she asked.

Midnight smiled, his eyes dancing happily.
"Only just now. She tried to call out to you after the panther..... but you were too far gone" He looked down at her, some curious joy in his eyes. "She hadnt spoken again until just now."
Midnight looked between the two, sensing the strong bond that was growing between mother and child. He smiled at them warmly, feeling as though he could burst from all the emotions coursing through his veins. Awe; Joy; Fear; Excitement....
Twilight looked up at her mother, a grin on her tiny face. "Mamma!" she said, more enthusiastic this time.

"yeah thats right." she nickered. Then she licked her face. A tear came down her eye. She was happy. Then she licked Midnight. Nevada was going to do the best she could to make her daughter strong again.

Midnight smiled at her and at Twilight, standing slowly and walking over to the cool mountain spring for a long, satisfying drink.
I wont lose you again.... he thought to himself, looking back at Nevada. You are too precious....I wont let anything happen to you again. his thoughts flew furiously to the panther that had almost taken her from him.
Twilight slept peacefully, head nestled in Nevada's side, for a few hours, but woke up hungry again. She drank ravenously for long periods of time every few hours, slowly letting her strength build up.
A week went by, life once again peacefull. Twilight's strength was slowly returning, and before the end of the week she was once again on her feet. A little thin and tiring easily, but very much as her old self. She was speaking well, slowly learning every word she could, and listening intently to everything her parents said. She often tried out new words the moment she heard them.
Midnight beamed with pride the first time Twilight called him "Daddy", and the gentle father was all together captivated by his tiny daughter.

"your never going to lose me. Even if my body is gone. You will never lose me. I will always be right here." she nickered and put her maw where she can feel his heart beating. After a week Nevada watched Twilight recover her strenth. She smiled and looked at Midnight and nippled on his back. Then whiped her tail at him to give him a hint on what she wants. Then she nippled and licked his back to make him week in the knees. Then she nipped him in the butt to see if he got the point.

Midnight's body responded to Nevada's silent hints, warmth rising within him and his heart beating faster. He nuzzled her mane, breathing in her scent and letting his soft velveteens move down her neck and back, gently, with hot emotion. His response to her was strong, but he wondered what she was hinting at. He knew it had been too soon after Twilights birth for them to mate again.
What is it she's hinting at....?
He looked into her eyes and could take a fair guess, but his confusion remained. "What is it, my love?" he asked, his deep voice even deeper with mounting passion.

She looked at him with her black orbs and then looked at twilight. "Never mind. its too earily." she whinnied and walked to lay under a tree.

Midnight grinned ruefully, realizing what she had wanted. He glanced at Twilight, happily chasing a butterfly around the terra, and smiled softly. He walked slowly over to Nevada, joining her under the tree. He stood next to her silently for a moment, then reached his black neck down to nuzzle her gently.
Twilight hopped and leapt around after the fluttering butterfly, her eyes bright, and giggles and laughter bubbling from her.

She nippled gentel in the maw. She nickered a light nicker and nuzzled in the same place she nippled him. She looked at him with Joy, Happyness in her orbs. Warmness in her coat and heart.
As the months went by Nevada watched her family grow. Life in their land was quiet and peaceful. One night. As she was sleeping. She had a dream about the day. She got taken away. She woke up and glaced over at her family. They were sleeping like a baby. She got up and snuck out to get a drink. She didnt want to wake them. She came to the watering hole and looked up at the moon and stars praying that every thing is going to stay the same way before anything happend. She thank god for giving her a second chance. She just dreamed and prayed through the night.

Midnight enjoyed the months that followed, watching Twilight grow slowly, becoming a very beautiful mare, and watching Nevada too, growing closer to her. His love for them grew each day.
Midnight felt Nevada stir that night, the cool air chilling him with icy fingers when her body moved from his. In his sleep induced stupor, however, he didn't awaken or follow. The next morning he awoke to see her by the stream, seeming to be wrapped up in some peacefull state, alone and serene. He walked slowly over to her, stretching out his stiff limbs as he did so.
"Good morning, Nevada." he said softly, playfully nipping her ear.

"good morning hunny." she nickered. She nipped him back. She then leaned on him and signed. She listened for Twilight incase she woke up. She whiped her whipcord on his back and stroaked his back.

Twilight stirred, the morning light shining on her face and awakening her. She got up slowly, yawning and stretching before trotting over to her parents.
"Morning mamma! Morning daddy!" she said, nuzzling each before getting a drink and running off to play. She was 6 months old now, and growing fast.
((sorry, I'm doing other stuff so the post is not good))

"morning." Nevada nickered. When she ran off. Nevada looked at Midnight. "She is almost ready to have a mate. What do you think about that?" she asked him.

Midnight snorted and looked abruptly accosted. "she's only six months old....we've got at least another year or two with her." His fatherly affection for her didnt want to let go. He wanted her to stay here, his little girl, forever. He didnt want her to grow up. Yet he knew that she would, and was happy for her. He hoped and prayed all sorts of good things about her future.
My little girl is growing up...
He sighed deeply. "Sometimes I wish we could just keep her as a child forever....." His black hide twiched once with the touch of a fly and he lowered his head to grab a mouthfull of grass. He munched quietly for a while, thinking about what Nevada had said.

"i know she is only six months. But she is growing up fast. In about a year or 2. She is going to find a mate. Have foals. Then her foals are going to repeat the same process. you know that. What did your parents say when you wanted a mate?" she asked him. As she watch her little filly. She looked beyond that. She looked at the surroundings by her.. Then she nickered," Yes same here. I wish that too."
She jumped up by a tree and got some apples.

Midnight nodded as she explained the process. He knew very well what would happen, whether he liked it or not.
"My mother never knew....I had no father, and my mother was stolen from me by another stallion. I havnt seen her since." A hint of sadness coated his voice as he spoke of his mother. It had been a long time since she had been taken from him, but he still remembered his promise to find her again, and to bring her back.
He trotted over with her to the tree and munched on apples. "Twilight, Come over here." he called, wanting her to try an apple. She was getting old enough for solid foods and apples were a wonderful treat.
Twilight came cantering over quickly, always obedient to her father's call. Midnight offered her an apple, telling her to try it. She did, hesitantly at first, but very eagerly once she tasted the sweet, juicy fruit. She ate several of them in rapid succession.
Midnight laughed softly, "Woah now, dont eat them all...." He nudged her playfully.
