Midnight nuzzled her feeling tears in her eyes.
Silverstar watched his grandmother with saddness he wheeled around and galloped off to find his uncle Barley.

Silverstar galloped hard back in Barley hard on his heels. Barley stopped stunnded. His mouth open to say something but nothing came. He walked forward nuzzling his mother on her neck. He finaly got some breath to say. " Oh mother....." He layed down with his nose on her side.
Snowstar lifted her head weakly and nickered something that only Bella could hear. " Please take good....good care of Midnight and Barley for me." She gasped and gave a shudder. "please Bella." She said again.

"Of course I will Snowstar...I will take care of them as if my life depended on it......" Bella replied softly
Larka came in behind them, stopping short seeing them on the ground, giving a short gasp. She walked forward, stopping when she came only a foot away. "Auntie Snow" Larka whispered, small tears falling down her face as she struggled to stop them.

Snowstar nickered to Larka. "Thank You Bella." She said. She turned to Larka with some amusment in her eyes. " Make sure Barley doesn't get into to much trouble." She said and one last shudder ran through her body before her breathing stopped. Their beloved Snowstar, was gone.
Barley stepped back tears streaming down her ceeks. "Mother." He gasped and backed up. He reared up thrashing his hooves and letting his call of sorrow ring out across the land.

Silent tears streamed down Larka's face, her head down low. Sorrow overcame Bella's body as she touched her lifeless body. "You are welcome" Bella whispered, rising from the ground slowly. "Midnight,Silverstar, Barley,Larka" she said each of their names, looking into their eyes as she said them. "Let us not be sad, but happy. Snowstar has lived her last part of life happy, as it should. This is going to be a tough time for all of us, and I hope we can use each other as our rock, our center of happiness. Remember Snowstar as we had, happy and full of life. Turn your sorrow into happiness and joy, as Snowstar would want us to. But for now, let us leave here in peace and remember Snowstar in our memories and most importantly, our heart"

Silverstar bowed his head.
Midnight nickered softly and nuzzled Larka.
Barley let himself fall back to the ground. His legs spread wide to keep him from falling. He felt as though the hole world would just disolve in mist now that his mother was gone.

Barley started to shake alittle as though every breath was hard for him.
Midnight stepped forward and closed her mothers eyes. " Good bye my mother. Fly away, Flay away." She said gently nuzzling her mother for the final time.

Bella started to walk away, her body gently swaying side to side as she took each step. Benny saw her, and trotted up. "whats wrong?" he asked. Bella said nothing, only looking back at the group, and continued back to the herd. Benny walked over to them, standing over his small neice.
