Horizongold’s mind was running on similar lines to Silverflame’s. Breezebell was making this into a much bigger thing than it was. And in fact, if looks could kill, Forestbeam and Redmoon would have another family member to grieve about. Horizongold blinked rapidly to dispel this and moved on. “Racers ready?” he asked, raising a wing. Not surprisingly, Stormglade was in the first position for his group. “GO!!”

Breezebell wasn't glaring at her sister because of the this stupid competition. But because Breezebell knew that Redmoon was still grieving. Breezebell had tried to make her let it go, but now she pushing her family away to build walls. Her sister wouldn't be okay if something didn't happen. She needed to bring down the walls. The walls that were keeping Redmoon in, and her family and friends out. Breezebell waited her turn and completed the race after the first had gone. She watched the others do it and she tried to take her mind off her sister. She was making a big deal about this, to help Redmoon bring down her walls, but it didn't work.

Silverflame:

Silverflame launched himself forward, he was the first of his team to go, and he need to gain them the lead. He galloped towards the tree using his wings to propel himself forward. He reached the tree just before Stormglade. Silverflame circled the tree, then he spread his wing to their full length and kicked the ground with so much force that he was shot into the lead. He returned to his group before the racers did and tagged Breezebell's shoulder with his wing tip.

Breezebell had taken off the moment her shoulder was touched and pushed off with force at the jump. She barely missed the tree and came back and tagged Emberblaze's shoulder. (Was he next? Can't remember lol)

(we never came up with an order, other then Breezebell was going second and the first runner would also be the last)

Silverflame:

The yearling colt started cheering for Breezebell as soon as he caught his breath, then quickly change to cheering for Emberblaze.

Breezebell stood silently with her head down. She didn't pay attention for a while just thinking and planning up schemes to take down her sisters walls.

Silverflame:

One after another Silverflame's teams mates raced away, flew around the tree, came back, and tagged the next racer. Finally it was time for Silverflam'e second run, he shot a slightly concerned look at Breezebell, and waited for Magicpetal to tag him. When Silverflame felt the roan filly's wing brush his shoulder, he shot forward, toward the tree.

One glance to his right told him that Junipersky was less then a nose behind him. Silverflame dashed around the tree barely managing to stay in the lead. He used his wings to give him an extra boost as he raced back to his team. Silverflame reached his team half a second ahead of Junipersky, and clasped panting. Then he started to roll around in the grass.

Breezebell pawed the ground and snorted. "Can we go now?" She asked. "I wanna fly by myself for a bit," She said, shooting Redmoon a look. Redmoon had stayed a little aways but had stayed to watch.

Mistcloud:

"Yes of course." said Mistcloud, "Just don't wander off, and don't be gone to long."

Shadowfire watched this with eyes of a hawk. He noticed that one group, the one with an Appaloosa filly with pale green wings was a split-second behind Silverflame, yet the team that the filly was in hadn’t sent their twelfth member out yet. Silverflame and another group member, a cream-colored yearling colt with indigo wings, was two winglengths behind Silverflame. “Winners!” Shadowfire called, pointing a wing to Silverflame and the cheering yearlings behind him. “All flight school students may have half an hour of free time in the apple field.”

Mistcloud:

"Go on." said Mistcloud to her two colts, she was very proud of the way they had handled the course. She watched as Silverflame and Shadowstar moved off with their friends and the other yearlings. "So, what do you think?" Mistcloud asked Shadowfire, who had been one of the steeds appointed to observe.

(I think you mean Shadowfire, not Shadowstar)

(Ah, yes that would be my auto correct)

(AutoIncorrect)

Shadowfire considered that question for a moment. “They were all quite good,” he said. “Groups 2, 3, and 5 especially.” Before the obstacle course had started, the council had quickly come up with a number for the groups. Group two included Stormglade and Junipersky, group three included the two sets of twins and the triplets, and group five included one of the injured bay roans and the cream colt. “Emberblaze— it is Emberblaze, right?— and Silverflame, as well as the gray pinto twins in group 2, will be great fighters.”

Horizongold had trotted up during this and processed his father’s words, then asked a further question. “What about spies?” he asked.

Mistcloud:

Mistcloud was proud to hear that Silverflame had done well. "Yes, that would be Emberblaze."

Honeyfall:

Honeyfall trotted over to the group discussing the yearling, "I think that Magicpetal and the twin fillies from group 3 would make good spies, as well as the silver bay dapple appaloosa filly from group 2, and a few others."

Redmoon looked over at the group who was discussing their places. She then looked at her cheering group, that she had failed miserably. A tear slipped down her face, but she quickly turned and limped away to a tree far, FAR in the distance.

Breezebell trotted off with her team with a smile and a happy face. She danced her skip dance, but, she had forgotten the most important thing. Her family.

Silverflame:

Silverflame followed his group to the apple orchard, he glanced back and saw Redmoon with the other yearlings that had been pulled early, and then he looked over at Breezebell, who was trotting next to him. "Hay, nice job." he said.

Horizongold’s heart jumped at Magicpetal’s name; suddenly fearful for her. Of course he knew she would be a great spy but his feelings didn’t agree with his logical mind. However, he did agree with the adult mare’s assessment of the other three spy nominations. He nodded, still concerned. “Well, I’m going to go eat some apples. If that’s okay with you?” he asked.

Shadowfire nodded. “Permission granted,” the captain said. “In fact, I think I’ll join you.” Grinning at his son, Shadowfire followed Horizongold back to the apple field.

Breezebell smiled at him. "Thanks you did great too," She said, still not remembering her sister.

Redmoon trotted/limped as far away from them as she could. She entered a forest and sat down just behind the border. She looked around and saw creatures in the trees. She mostly birds, but some squirrels and chipmunks. She sighed and layed down all the way and rested her head on the forest floor, swatting flies with her tail, and resting her leg.
