Orion walked out of the hot desert that had berated him for so many days. He had followed the smell of salt and was now at the ocean. He was glad to see some water and some sea oats and grass that he could graze on after seeing nothing but white desert sand.
He wandered down some more sand dunes and stopped before a large eyed doe, her gray coat turning brown for the warm months that are lying ahead. His large frame of 15 hands high muscles stood before her. Orion's steel dust coat was darkened from sweating as the sun beat its fury down on him. "Good afternoon doe, I hope your day has gone well." She looked at him and bowed before standing upright again. "It has gone well King Orion, and I hope your day has gone well too." He gave her charming smile and dipped his cranium in farewell before leaving her. Such a nice doe.
Orion walked to wards the ocean, flicking his long jet-black tail lazily against his rump, swatting the flies away. His long jet-black forelock blew slowly in front of his face, making him appear dangerous and threatening with his dark brown eyes currently not showing any emotion. He smiled contently at himself, knowing full and well that he was handsome, young, strong, and popular. He thought back to earlier this morning, when he had left a mares side, while she slept peacefully. It had taken days for him to get close to that beauty and when he did, he snatched her up fast. She was now probably heart broken and filled with rage at him or herself, or maybe both. She was carrying one of several offspring that he produced.
Orion stepped on to the beach, the white sand burning hot under his hooves, hissing in surprise at the heat. The strong wind of the beach was hot and humid, blowing his mane and tail with it. It roared in his ears with the sound of the waves pounding on the shore with it. He smiled with pleasure, enjoying the sight and smell of the beach. He moved his Mustang frame down towards the clear blue ocean and looked down at the water. Orion saw his reflection and admired his handsome features and the dished shape cranium he had that showed the little Arabian lineage he had flowing through his hot blood Mustang form. He waded farther into the water, feeling its coolness wrap around his body, making him relax. It felt so good to have the water gently lapping his sides and making him move with the water. Orion looked down into the water and stared at the brightly colored fish that swam around him legs and then he looked up and down the beach towards open emptiness. He was bored and he wished he had some entertainment or at least somebody to talk too.
Turning back towards shore, Orion waded out of the water and walked on to the beach. He shook his body, sending water droplets flying everywhere, catching the sun and sparkling like diamonds in the air. He walked away from the water, heading up the beach where grass was starting to grow. He collapsed underneath a well shaded palm tree and looked out to wards the ocean, watching the waves crash on shore and feeling the wind blow on him. "I wonder what the day has in store in for me."
