 Zaballa turned her attention to the stallion before her. His handsome looks had attracted her over to him and his yellow eyes held her own in his gaze. His Mane and tail were of a deep black with strands of purple woven in. His body was muscular and a dark purple to match his Hair. This one who called himself Chester seemed to be bumping about to some unknown music, a tune that only he could hear. Zaba twitched her own tail to bat at a fly who had landed upon her rump. She wondered if he would notice her on his own or if she would have to speak up. As he moved around she almost became trampled once or twice and had to quickly side-step to avoid his hooves. Finally she cleared her throat and issued a greeting. "Hello?" She asked, not at all sure that he would hear her.

He looked at her as his eyes widened a little. "Ohhh, dang girl.. Where'd you just pop up from? Almost gave me a heart attack!" Then he chuckled, shaking his mane a little. Then he looked her over. He remembered watching the carousel moving. Whenever it was moving, he knew more carousel horses were coming to life. It thrilled him to his bones to rush over and watch it happen. Watch the riders and their mounts come off the carousel together, like walking through a magic portal.
"OH.... You be one of them fillies that just came off of that there carousel the other day! Wow... Hey! Welcome to the island! More nad more come every few weeks. Why... this is da first tim-e that I ever got to be here to meet one when they arrive. So, how you likes it so far?"

She smiled up at him. At least he had been able to hear her. She wasn't entirely sure he would. "It's an interesting feeling to be able to walk. It took me some time to get used to it at first, but I think I've adjusted fairly well so far. When did you come off?" She was rather curious about this one. He was quite handsome and the more she was around him the more she seemed to like him. Then again they had only just met and she couldn't be completely sure just yet.
The sun was still high in the sky so Zabella wasn't too worried about trying to find shelter for the night just yet, but eventually she would need to. Perhaps he could help her out there? Well she wouldn't ask just yet, she really didn't want to intrude upon him. "Oh I'm sorry! Where are my manners? My name's Zaballa. You can call me Zaba if you want, it's just a shorter version of my name is all.

"Oh... I got here several months back. I came not too long after Fluttershy joined the stable. I was special you know. My wooden body had been made especially for the human who rode me." It was one of those things that made him feel special. It was also a reason he was often so happy go lucky and in a good mood. He knew he was on that island for having been wanted from his creation.
He turned his head looking over at her. He noticed he wasn't too much taller than her. He smiled. "Nice to meet you Zaba. My name is Chester." Then, just by chance, he caught the look in her eye that she had been studying him. Though he wasn't exactly sure what it was all about. Even though he had a breeding with Mia; it wasn't like they had anything romantic going on. Just his human took him to the tent for all that just cuz she wanted to see what would happen by using his essence. He didn't mind since it made him feel even more valued by her.

Fluttershy? She had yet to meet this one. Then again Chester was the only other being like herself that she had met so far. When he mentioned how his rider fit him perfectly she understood. She had actually been quite suprised to find that out herself when she came to life. She and her rider were a perfect fit, knowing that they were meant to be together made her feel a sense of pride.
The sun beat down and warmed them as they talked and she could feel a slight breeze flowing through her mane and tail. She wasn't quite used to these feelings yet and whenever something such as a fly or other pest landed on her it startled her. Feeling, seeing, smelling was all new to her. She hadn't had those senses while she was on the carousel and it was all so overwhelming. A small butterfly landed on her rump and startled her once more. She blushed a little as she realized her mistake and hoped Chester didn't think her too jumpy.
Turning back to him she wondered what sort of fellow he was. He seemed nice enouch, gentle enough, but was there something hidden under that? No, it didn't seem that there was. She definately felt safe enough and she doubted she would feel so safe if there was something hidden beneath the surface. "Do others like us come off the carrousel often?" She asked, trying to strike up a conversation.

"Most of the time, but for a while there, noone was coming off. Before that dry spell, they were coming like every other week at least! It's usually at night. I wonder if that's because.. people get on the carousel during the day.. and the time to ride it takes a while to get to this side. I love being here to welcome the newcomers. I always feel like we're all knit together somehow."
He then looked at her. For someone so new, she certainly was brave. She wanted to walk and talk with him. Why.. his stablemates were always telling him to shut up at night when he'd ramble on to himself about the day. "You know.. we should go trot through the beach. Ocean water feels great on the ankles this time of year." He was already forgetting what they were supposed to be talking about. His own mind changing gears on their own.

Zaballa smiled a little and followed him to the water. The initial chilliness of the water shocked her a little, but she soon got used to it. Chester was right though, it did feel good. Gulls flitted about and called to each other in the sky, and in the distance she could see one or two of the other horses that had just come off of the carousel. The sand and water felt good as they walked along. She had to be careful as she walked, examining the sand before her to be sure that she didn't unknowingly step on any sea creatures.
After walking in silence for a few moments she then turned back to her companion. "So what is life like outside of the carousel? Now that I'm off of there I'll need to adjust to this new life." She paused then and waited for his answer. Continuing to watch the sand beneath her hooves as the moved on.

Chester had been trotting along not really paying attention to what laid on the beach sand. He did however pay some attention to how Zaballa took everything in. When she asked her question, he just grinned.
"Well, for one thing... that depends on your point of view. There are a few here that scowl and complain about every little thing.. or sometimes they complain about the absence of stuff.. For me, I think everyday is like a picnic. When I frequent the carousel, I am always reminded of how exciting it was to come off of it and be alive."
Then he trotted on ahead a little bit, and he bent his head in, finding a sand dollar as the tide washed back. He picked it up with his teeth and brought it over to her. What he said next might have been hard to understand with him trying to say it while holding the shell between his teeth! "If you put your ear to this.. you can hear the washing of the ocean. It's soo cool. and there are some kind of little things inside.. and it rattles around."
