( HERE )

Emberblaze noticed that Redmoon was in his group and his heart soared. He opened his wings, feeling her eyes on him. He wished he could walk over and talk to her, but, Cloudroot was about to give instructions.

(PLS SOMEONE BEEEE HERE!!!!!!!!!!)

(Anyone here!????)

(Made 13!!!!!!)

(AAGGH!!!! SRY!!! At a riding lesson!)

Magicpetal trotted over to Breezbell happy to see her friend. "Hello, Breezebell!" she nickered. She flapped her aqua wings and smiled. She wasn't the most skilled flier, but she always tried her best at anything she tried, and that is what was important to her. Magicpetal went from a long legged, skittish filly, to a sleek and slender, slightly muscular, determinded yearling and she was happy with the change, although she didn't feel any different. Horizongold led the group toward the pond, and Magicpetal was as excited as ever. Some of the yearlings glanced at her sideways and some snickered quietly, "I didn't know they let weanlings join flight school." a lage yearling stallion snickered quietly to the palomino. Magicpetal heard the remarks the foals said, but she just stuck her nose in the air, and pranced, showing off her brightly colored wings. Also letting her teasers see she wasn't afraid of them.

( River? )

Embermoon rasied her wing for the chatty ones and led them to a good spot. "Now, I want one of you at a time, to spin around in the air. Make sure to stay in place!" She instructed and pointed to a grey appoloosa filly and she nodded. She raised into the air and flew slow circles. She watched closely. If they could stay in place then would have an easier course, but she noticed one or two yearlings had trouble with that and told them to keep on doing that warm up while we watched.

Breezebell to self: She knew she had struggled with both but she didn't really care. She just wanted to have some fun and followed Horizongold, prancing with pride and enjoyment.

( ;c Oki bai )

Horizongold continued talking with Embermoon. "Right," he said. "So first we need to see how well you do it already. Everyone lift off, please." He watched them follow his instructions and nodded. "Now fly in a big circle around our heads and land back where you started." He watched them carefully as they did this. The majority of them, eight or nine of the fourteen, had one of the two skills mastered and was struggling with the other. The remaining five were Magicpetal, who was fairly skilled at both things, two Frost Herd yearlings, a flea-bitten gray filly and a brown pinto colt, also were capable of both things decently well, a weanling palomino colt from Valley Herd who stumbled severely when landing, and Breezebell. Breezebell, he noticed sadly, struggled with both skills. Her circle in the air looked more like an egg, and she also stumbled when landing. Horizongold frowned thoughtfully, filing away the information from what he had just seen. He also noted which of the students performed which task better. He nodded approvingly to all of them when they had landed. "Okay, we've seen what you can do," he said. "I will instruct those of you who struggle more with landing, and Embermoon can take the ones who need help turning." He made eye contact with the trainees, then pointed at six of them: Magicpetal, the palomino, the brown pinto, two gray appaloosas, and Breezebell, and said, "Come with me." He led them slightly away from Embermoon and the others to begin his instruction.

(gtg, sorry)

Embermoon nodded swiftly and dashed into the air quicker than lightning leaving a cloud of dust and flew to the group and nodded respect to Horiozongold. "Today you will be learning landing and turning technices and skills," She said loudly.

Redmoon to self: Oh man..... Emberblaze grew..... I didn't even notice! He looks so more mature and handsome now.... She had been put in the group with Emberblaze and wasn't sure why. She ahd landed and took off very well but she didn't know what they were getting at. Breezebell had gone to Embermoon's group and they were seperated. She waited to hear instructions from Oceangold.

Oceangold: "It's okay," she said when Embermoon arrived. "How about you go with Horizongold to do landing and turning?"

Redmoon had grown into her beauty and was one of the prettiest fillies in the herd but was quiet. She hadlanded with the flight school and had just stood still and glanced at Magicpetal and Emberblaze. She felt feelings for Emberblaze on that day he admitted his crush to her. She didn't have the courage to say anything about herself though and just stood tall and proud. Breezebell had grown also and was very loud and fun. She wasn't as beautiful as her twin but she was average. Redmoon had lifted off as silent as an owl and landed as graceful as a feather falling down from the sky. Her sister was fast and light and had easily passed her twin Redmoon.

Embermoon to flight school: She had forgotten what day it was and flew to Oceangold quickly and landed perfectly beside her. "Sorry I'm late," She said roughly.

( YESH SORRY FINALLY DONE READING :P )

(me too. Riverbreeze? U here?)

( here )

(can you make 13 soon, if not now?)

(gtg)

(Yeah that makes more sense)

Oceangold nodded to Magicpetal, noticing the determination in the yearling filly's face. Then she looked more closely and grinned. "Magicpetal, right? I'll be sure to put you in Horizongold's group today, since for some reason Embermoon isn't here." She winked knowingly, then raised her voice to address the whole group. She raised a wing and was pleased to see that they all quieted down this time. "For some reason Embermoon isn't available today, so Horizongold will be taking a group of you across the apple orchard to work on landings and turning. All of you have mastered the takeoff, obviously, but I noticed some of you need to work on those other things. I will keep the rest of you here to do a few more advanced things, since you are already good at turning and landing." She pointed her wing at ten yearling colts and three yearling fillies, plus Magicpetal, and gestured for them to head past the pond to work.

Magicpetal was the first to lift off and fly after the flight instuctor. Emberblaze glanced at Horizongold and tossed his head as if to say, "If you're gonna make a move, do it quick.". He lifted off, without doing anything else, and followed Magicpetal. He cruised next to her. "Oh man! Not the apple orchard! I have bad memories from here..." he said, recalling the wasps. Magicpetal nickered and glided swiftly down and landed in front of Cloudroot, Emberblaze landing next to her. Magicpetal pranced ,excited. Seconds later, all the other foals, landed and chattered excitedly, some bragging about flying experience, other complementing one another's wings. Magicpetal shook all the voices off and only focused on Oceangold, her eyes blazing.
