"Shhh!" Tali giggled and turned to her beribboned companion, "Yer gonna get us caught fore we even get in the yard."

She caught at the silver ribbon tied to the halter and tugged the snuffling nickering beast through Johhny and Sianna's back gate. The sky blue and black pegasus reluctantly followed the girl, giving up trying to nibble the hedge.

Soap the kitten peeked out of Tali's apron pocket, and gave the flying animal a dubious look.

"Oh don't you look at me like that. You know Johnny and Sianna won't have gotten another wedding gift like her. She's perfect."


Tali tied the silver ribbon to the porch rail, and straightened the pearl silk saddle cloth so the silver embroidery looked nice.

It read:

Free Falling, Property of Johnny and Sianna Smith
With Love, Tali.
