Kromium & Karat
They were growing quickly. Much too quickly some may say, but they still could be found trailing behind their mother as she checks up on the well-being of her kingdoms residents. Karat, sporting her necklace of shells she had gathered from the beaches, is happily prancing along. Krom is right at her heels but struggling to balance on the weight of his changing hooves. Something strange was happening too him recently. The dark brownish black of his hoof was becoming shiny. It didn't hurt so everyone past it off as just a strange oddity.
As they round a bend in shoreline, a mischievous look befalls their mothers face and instantly they squeal in delight. Karat leaps to the side as their mother snakes her head in Kroms' direction. Planting a touch along his honey coat and then darting off with the customary, You're it!
Karat quickly gallops off after mother. A soft jingling of her shells as she races down the beach. With a slight cock of her head she sees Krom struggling to catch up, so she slows slightly. Allowing him with striking distance. Krom is huffing as he comes up behind Karat. A devious grin and determination on his green pointed face. He pushes forward and nips Karats butt before breaking a skidded stop and turn. "Karats it!" He shouts before darting off in the opposite direction. Karat smiles that her brother doesn't see she purposely slowed for him.
Bright silver eyes look to find mother isn't too far ahead of her. So she surges forwards again. Ears pressed into her purple mane as her lengthening tail flows like a banner behind her. She was faster this time and she was determined to catch her mother.
As her eyes narrowed upon the earthy brown of her mother, she hears a beating of wings from above. The familiar form of her father descend from the sky down the shoreline in front of them. Landing he stands with wings spread wide across the beach and a grin upon his pale lips. She laughs as she guesses he is attempting to block mother's path so she can tag her, but she has different plans...
Her target changes as she gallops as quickly as she can to him. A smirk playing on her own maw. Tiny hooves fly across the beach and she is quick meet him. Ducking under his feathers and snaking her nose to his barrel. With a nip she tags him and continues down the beach, calling out, "Dad's it!"
Krom sees the action from afar. Realizing he is not a target anymore he slows. Now beginning to make his way towards them at a walk. A snort flutters from his nares as he sees his sister still running about. She has way too much energy, is his only thought as he comes to stand amongst the sands. Emerald tail flicking lazily as his eyes begin to shutter close. Nap time.
