1 Chapter 1

On this day with clear skies and the sun still shining, on top of a big mounatin that reaches far in to the sky, there was a small spacial disturbence in the cliffs not far from the top. a baby not older than a month appeared. it was sleeping inside a black carpet, only the head was seen. it had fair skin and white eyebrows. The eyelids were closed with black eyelashes. on top of the head you could see a pair of small horns growing very close from the skin, but only if you looked carefully. a bit of white hair covered the rest of his head. The baby was in a cold part of the region high up in the mountains all alone, this is not a place where he could survive. The baby was would not know as it was sleeping. a few hours had passed since the baby arrived in the cliffs. the skin of the baby could be seen almost frozen. The baby was still sleeping and would not wake up even though it was cold, it was fortunate it had the carpet.

A pair of cliffs down the mountain some goats were going up the mountain, this mountain was a part of their home. on top of the mountain they would go every week to graze and find salt. they were about 10 of them goats in the herd. Now that it was spring and the coldest season was over. it would be time for the mounain goats to lay birth. The mountian goats were a minimum of 1,5 meters tall when becoming adults. They have a white shaggy winter coat. they have a crest of long, erect hair up to eight or more inches in length runs along the length of the spine, on the rump, and over the shoulders and the neck. They walk at a delibarate gate, as they treck up the mountain sometimes eating or licking salt and plants on the way. when passing by the baby, one of the goats stops. It was a goat walking in the middle of the herd. It trecked to the baby in the cliff while some other goats stopped and watched, and the rest found a place to eat plants. The goat was a female about to give birth this year in the spring. the goat was four years old having become a mature adult last year luckely getting pregnant. Having no experience giving birth or raising a kid she was a bit anxious. Maybe that was why when it saw a baby being all alone in the cliffs, her motherly instinct kicked in. She thought that she could take it with her in her isolation period. The nanny goat picket up the baby that was sleeping and but it on her back and began trecking behind the other mountain goats again.

On the way down the mountain again the Nanny split up with the other goats and trecked the steep cliffs eventually finding an isololated and inaccessible place to give birth. she put the baby on her back down on the ground and looked him all over. finding the potruding horns that was stuck on top of his head she thinks he is part of her species. she watches over him and makes sure he is warm before making ready for giving birth. giving birth was tough but she had a storng will and was part of a strong herd and had gotten enough food to sustain herself and the kid she was giving birth to. it took about 11 hours before her birthing process was over. the kid she gave birth to was a female like her. The first hour of being born was looking around and seeing her mother and the brother her mother had found. After an hour she began trying to walk and then begun to run around her nanny. the nanny was a bit tired after giving birth so she watched the kids. (she began calling the baby a kid too after recognising it as part of her species.)

The newborn kid approached the sleeping Baby licking its face making it wake up. it had blue green eyes that stared right in front of its face after waking up. The kid goat looked much like her mother except being about 40 cm high and not having horns yet. It had been curious about everything since being born.

Baby POV

it looked up at the grey world in front of its eyes. It being a baby could not speak or move much. It could only learn about the world trough its own senses. Being a baby it had not developed colors to see the world. but in its mind it could remember everything that happened since birth. Although he slept for most of the month, he could understand that he was in a whole new place. He could only recognise his own name by some power it was Hirano Reve. This did not make much sense to the baby though. Reve blinked his eyes and saw the new sibling he had gained without knowing. it had four legs and was hairy he felt the salvia of the tongue that had licked him. For every second he was awake his mind would be filled with everything that had happened, and him being a baby was a bit hungry. he began to cry. the nanny started giving milk to them after hearing him cry. he remembers having drunk milk from his mother before and therefore adapted . After having had his fill he fell asleep. The kid goat slept beside him after having played around.

no one's POV

Reve would drink milk and sleep everyday while the kid played and drank milk. It lasted for five days. When the nanny begun to move. the nanny bit down on the black carpet binding Reve and called the kid to follow her. she startet trecking slowly while remaing alert. when finding a place to eat she would fill up her belly. she would also see that the kid learned. the nanny did not go back to the herd like normal she looked around and found another inacessable place and started milking Reve and the kid when Reve woke up.

nanny POV

Having been a mother for the first time she was afraid of accidents like all newborn mother goats. but she knows that she can't go back to the herd before both her kids have learned to walk. yes having a short memory she can't rememer not giving birth to Reve. so by default she gave birth to him too. but she thought Reve was very week not being able to move much after birth. he was also small. and had a black coat. (this is her misunderstanding.) so in the next days she would go on searching for salt to lick and plants to eat while avoiding the herd and other animals. she would milk Reve and the kid. After about three months the kid was weaned and started learning from her how to distinguish smells and find food while avoiding predators. she had also done her best to make Reve move by pushing him with her muzzle from time to time. Maybe he understood, because he started rolling on the ground when she did. He also started using his hoovs. her kid must have thought this was some kind of fun though because he started mimicking him.

Hirano Reve's POV

Now that three months had gone by he had started recognising some things that the nanny was saying, even though that was only body language and some snorts. He could understand that she was his mother, even though he could remember that being someone else too. he had also understood that his little sister grew much faster than him and ran very fast. He could not understand why they were so different and could understand at the same time. He had learned to roll over now and felt a bit of accoplishment. He would sleep about 20 hours a day and be up for about an hour at noon, the morning, the night, and the afternoon. He was trying to stay up longer, but his brain exhausted him too easely with all the information. The next two months he knew that his little sister had stopped eating milk and was following his mother and learning knew things. He had learned to separate his memories from his daily interaction with the world. but it only lasted an hour before the information came back, making him capable of being up an hour more each day. he had also learned to sit as of recently. he would cling to the black carpet everytime with is hoof when his nanny decides to move to the next place. He was cold most of the time because he was naked without the carpet. But he could withstand it and learned to resist the cold up in the mountains. it was also harder breathing air here but he learned to live with it. He could feel horns growing from the top of his head like his mother and little sister so he did not feel to much different. his sister has also learned to take me on her back. so i have been traveling on her back recently. it is warmer now though and i can see the sun almost everyday.

One month later, Reve had recently seen with his own eyes that it was becoming colder and it rained more often. he had started becoming awake six hour a day now and had learned to go on all fours. He had also started learning to eat food like his mother and sister. and licking salt when finding it. He's mother had started teaching him how to avoid a predator too. Now that he had learned to walk on all four hooves like his mother and sister, the nanny would make him walk on his own when he could. his hoofes would bleed and get scratched from time to time and he would hold his carpet with his teeth which had grown. (he is reffering to himself as a goat because he thinks he is one.) when he falls asleep he would wake up in another place with his sister and mother. today was just like any other day except he did not rememper walking this way before. he remebered every path that has been taken since he has been here. he would walk behind his mother and sister on four hoofes like them except he was slow. so they could only wait. after walking like this for an hour he got tired and fell asleep. when he woke up he could see many other goats like his mother and sister. he could tell the diffrence though. his sister was beside him. he stood up on his four hoofes, clinging to his black carpet. he could see his mother talking with others of her kind. his sister got his attention though as she said to find frinds to play with. she took the lead and he followed after. There were three other kids playing around and his sister joined them. he tried playing with them too but it was a bit hard. he lay down on his stomach and watched them play. About an hour later he fell asleep growing tired of watching. When waking up again seven hours later he could see his mother leaving this place with another mountain goat. watching this he stood up on all four trying to find his sister in this big herd. After finding her, he ask her why mother is leaving. Apparantly this was normal. In the next ten days he and his sister would walk with this herd while looking for food. somtimes a predator would attack and the bigger and strongest bucks or billies would fight them off while they run. being a part of this herd was nothing like being with his mother. he learned to trust them while learning to run as fast as he could which was not very fast. it is a good thing this herd was strong. when his mother came back he could follow her again, only this time with the herd.

no ones POV

Reve could be seen learning to use his legs and arms and hands to run. He could also be seen learning to integrate in the herd. He could be seen laying under his sister when it rained and playing with the kids when it was sunny. tThe herd would always move in the cliffs and mountains. two month go by very fast growing up in this moving herd. the kids learned to climb steep cliffs. and if they are about to fall they would get help from the older ones. It would also seem that Reve's mother was succsesful in getting pregnant yet again this fall. Reve and his sister could still follow their mother to learn but not all the time because of her pregnancy. Reve was the smallest in the herd so he was taken most care of. Reve would huddle with his mother and sister since it began to be rainy season.

Reve's POV

Now he was nine months old. He has now learned to separate daily life from his memories so that he could stay awake eight hours a day. when he is sleeping he would be on his sister back. He could climb on top now on his own. He gets taught to climb cliffs each day which is very tiring. He has learned to snort like the others. And can interact through his body language now. He was now eating some plants. what he finds best to eat are those blue round berries because they taste sweet. He has grown used to licking salt on the cliff so it is not so bitter. while he was eating he saw something fall from the sky something that is not rain. It is white. he turned around and trecked to his sister and mother and asked her what is was. It turned out to be somehing called snow. Coming every year. It would be colder she said. I wrapped my black carpet with my hoofs around my skin. my hair had now grown a bit it as it was white and curly. small grey horns growing inbetween the hair on either side of his head where his ear are. Looking at what fell from the sky called snow, he thought it looked nice. The cold season when snow was there was hard to survive.

They needed to search harder to find food in the mountains. and huddled more often. My carpet helped a bit as i leaned on my sisters body. a month goes by very fast. learning to live with the cold. it would be harder to drink water. I learned from the older ones to use my horns to attack the ice. to obtain water. and to get food stuck in the snow. it was freezing cold but i had to endure. Sleeping was harder since it got colder. But not sleeping got me pain in my head caused by all the memories. I huddled together with the other kids and my sister when we slept. Everyday was hard but i had to survive so i held on. when there was only one month of winter left i got sick. It was a very tough night to hold on. I would cough and have a pain in my head. My carpet and the wool on my mother and sister and the herd helped me live through. I felt stronger after the cold. My head felt clearer and i felt it easier to seperate my daily life from my memories. I could stay awake ten hour a day now. The last month of the winter felt easier and it became warmer as the days went by i would now be 12 months old, a year to be exact. my self of identety felt clearer. my mother went off on her own again as spring kicked in. I would now be on my own with my sister and the herd.

climbing mountains was something i had learned now. it was only easier now that i felt control of my body. peeing and pooping was a learning experience taken from my mother. Now i could do it without dirtying myself. it was easier to play with my peers now. I could play attack with horns and play climbing the mountain, it was fun. Sleeping was also a kind of fun. After three months of spring summer came again. This was the hottest season. I climbed cliffs with the other kids following my sister. And after finding the small river i startet learning how to swim. it was hard at first but in this warm weather it was fun. after learning to swim it got easier and easier, learning to float on the water was fun. after having fun in the water. the herd decided to move onwards. the new kids this year was also bigger than him, much bigger. But i did not care. Because someday i would grow bigger.
