"This
is Shimmer. She's an Easter Unicorn that I got from the Adoption
Centre.
She's new here, and isn't used to people yet. When she calms
down, she's quite gentle, I assure you." With that, Rose
offers Shimmer a sugar cube, and strokes her velvety muzzle.
Then she turns toward you again. "Would you like to pet
her? She's calm now." Reaching out hesitantly, you stroke
her neck, wondering at the soft silkiness of it. "She is
very beautiful, isn't she," you say. Totally over her jitters
now, Shimmer nudges you, nearly pushing you into the wall. Rose
grins, "She wants you to scratch above her eyeridge."
Complying with the mares commands, you watch as she closes her
eyes in bliss. "You've done it now," Rose says, "she'll
be you're friend for life! Well, we must be going back out, and
let her be. Hopefully soon I can put her in the meadow with the
others." With that, she walks back to the barn doors, opening
them. "Lets
go."
