Name: Bonded Chains {Bond}
Gender: stallion
Height: 17. 2 hh
Story:
Bond sighed, smoke escaping his nose. A light snow fall had begun, and the sky was a dark grey. It was almost midnight; it had almost been a year since he had done something he regretted the most.

Being Jealous....

If he hadn't been jealous years ago, he would of had his brother standing next to him. His eyes fell next to him, and almost like magic he could see his little brother standing there, his eyes meeting his own. Shivers crawled down his spine. He turned from the edge of the forest, and stopped looking over the colorful streets of the town. He walked back to his home, a large cave in the snowy swamp/forest, his giant hoofs leaving monstrous steps of regret to haunt him this night. Unlike most Kelpies, he enjoyed being in forests, and snow. So, he lived in a forest that had swamp in it that was close to a human village. He suddenly stopped in front of a giant oak, and looked at the engraved symbols on the tree. It was where his little brother had been buried; his own father had chosen the sight for his burial. Tears almost filled Bond's eyes as he remembered his brother, Geotermia.

Long ago, when Bond was just a foal his little brother Geotermia was born. Before his parents named him, Bond called him Geo all the time, after the word Geography meaning The Earth's ground. Bond had always believed Geo was one with the Earth. Butterflies always landed on his nose when he slept, and whenever Bond tried it, they flew away. Over the years, Geo became more loved by everyone, even though he didn't talk much, but when he did, he seemed so smart. Bond was almost a stallion at the time, and felt unloved, and became jealous of Geo.

Of course, what he didn't know was that Geo had always loved him, and only got his smarts from Bond. When Bond and Geo moved away, Geo still got loved by everyone. One day, though, Bond, Geo, and their parents went for a hike in the woods. Bond's father wanted to speak privately with Bond, while Geo and their mother walked ahead. While they were talking, Bond were so angry when his father kept babbling on about how proud he was of Bond teaching Geo to become a fan favorite, that his jealously blocked out everything he had said, except for this line, "I'm so proud of Geo...." But Bond didn't hear the part where he said "and you." When a bear attacked their mother, and Geo ahead, Bond, and their father were too far behind to really help. Trying to be like Bond, Geo fought the bear, but lost, and soon lost his grip, and fell. Too angry to really think, Bond watched as Geo fell to his death.

Bond shook the memory out his head, and then with his antlers scratched a heart into the tree. "Happy Birthday, Geo. Enjoy where you are..."

Soooo purdy! It's 500 words exactly! :D

Name: Haiti
Gender: stallion
Height: 16.2hh
Story:
Haiti stood from where he'd been laying in the shadows. He shivered as rose, his legs and back stiff and his head reeling. With a heavy sigh, he started down the slight hill, his tail dragging listlessly over the frozen ground. Everything weighed heavily on him- the cold, the stiffness in his body, hunger- but not what he had done.
Haiti had loved her. Sweet and beautiful Lamir. She had let him show her to all his favorite palces- the hilltop, the lilly pond, and a beautiful garden with an ancient stone fountain. But when he had asked her to be his, she had refused, stating that she was betrothed. Outraged, Haiti had searched for hours until he found an old sword in the forest, and returned to Lamir, seeking vengeance. He took her life quickly, then went on to her father, as he was the one who had forced to her be engaged to the stallion, who Haiti allowed to live and suffer his loss. Haiti always felt the vice of pain clenched around his heart when he thought of Lamir, but it was eased slightly now with the satisfaction of taking her from Ai. Haiti kept the sword with him everywhere, praying to never forget Lamir- as well as to never let anyone get so close to him that he could never keep.

Name: Valiant - his name is a constant reminder of his cowardice
Gender: stallion
Height: 14.2 hh
Story:
The great Kelpie sighed, laid down to rest from his days of galloping through the thick foliage. Valiant's body seemed to sink into the damp soil, though he did not care. He was numb, numb to the hunger, the exhaustion and fatigue, numb to the screams that had pierced the air days ago...

"Valiant!" the mare cried out, her hooves stuck deep in swampy muck. Tears trailed down his beautiful mate's face, staining her coat and breaking his heart. The sound of a gunshot startled both Kelpies, and they were reminded of their approaching fate. The danger which took the form of the two-legged creatures that hunted for their horns.

Valiant was pulled from his paralyzed fright when the mare cried out to him again, cried to him to help her as she struggled and flailed in the muck. The stallion was torn, would he risk his life to try to save his love?


The answer was frigid and bitter in his heart as he rested his cheek against his forelegs. His mate was far behind him, as well as the gunshots and screams that had echoed throughout the Bayou and shivered through his bones.

- I know this doesn't really matter, but this is the only BK I've ever truly felt compelled to try for. He's amazing, and I hope whoever gets him will cherish this broken soul -

Name:
Death Wish

Gender:
stallion

Height:
16.2hh

Story:

Death watched with cold, hard, unflinching amber eyes as the last breath shuttered from the loner. A feeling of satisfaction welled inside his heart as he remembered all too clearly the sickening thud of the stallion's head meeting rock. An unmistakable and wretched sneer spread across his face and a snarl escaped as steam rolled off his hot body in waves, into the surrounding abyss. "That'll teach you to touch what's mine." he hissed into the dead loner's ear. Death watched in awe as the blood pooled like a deep, dark lake around his hooves, HIs own blood ran cold as he realized the true meaning of what he'd done.

There could be no witnesses. Solemnly, he turned icily to the way she'd run. 'no witnesses.' he repeated over and over as he padded quietly after her, slinking through the trees. The other stallion's blood had already dried on his coat and hooves. He needed more. The feel of the warm sticky liquid oozing around his hooves. "Yes." he let out a soft, crazed whine. Suddenly, Death stiffened. 'She's near.' A terrible smile spread brutally across his face, shadowing his already dark features against the black of the falling night. He resolved to slink quietly, keeping to his strengths in the shadows.

There she was at last. So gorgeous. So strong. So... terrified. Hatred and anger surged through him, his eyes flaring as he let out a shrieking whinny, charging the unsuspecting mare as she drank nervously, her body racked with chills. He easily clobbered her to the ground, slamming her head under water. A maniacal and crazed look spread over him as he watched her thrashing helplessly beneath him, growing weaker and weaker with each twitch of her sleek body.

Death watched with no emotion on his face as bubbles rolled to the surface of the water and popped. As no more came, he stepped cautiously off of her head. It floated to the top, pale and covered in mud. The blank, deep-brown eyes stared off at something far off that neither of them could see. Death nuzzled her a last time before whispering in her ear. "No witnesses." He stood, tossing his head triumphantly before turning on her and padding into the dark. The shadows. His home. Death shrouded him as he disappeared into the gloom.

Username: SkySmoke
Name: Rumex (it means Sorry in Latin)
Gender: stallion
Height: 16.2
Story: I'd like to start off by saying this is over 500 words...but not by a ton. Once I got going I couldn't get the story in there without going over. 2nd, everyone was kind of going with a story involving regret about a mate. This story just kind of....happened after reading the breed info and seeing him. I don't know that what he did was "bad" in the traditional sense, i kind of went with the "weigh him down" part of the story. Anyhow...i'm rambling. On to the story:

All the children knew to stay out of the swamps. They were dangerous and forbidden, which of course made them that much more irresistible…
Ten year old Keri had been finding comfort in the swamps as long as she could remember. Sure, she knew they were dangerous, but they were also the only place she could be alone. She had been tormented at school her entire life because of a skin condition that left her with large white patches all over her body. Her mother assured her she was beautiful; the kids at school told her otherwise. Every day after school she would come home, drop off her things, and head to the swap. She was careful but she loved to be alone. She loved to sit and listen and imagine all of the secrets the swamp held. She hoped one day she could learn some of them.
Her biggest dream was to see a Bayou Keplie; a creature that some weren’t even sure existed. One of the legends said that the creatures chose who to show themselves to and Keri prayed nightly that one would show itself to her. Little did she know how much it would change her world.

Rumex moved quietly through the swamps without too much of a purpose. He was moving for the sake of moving, and listening. He was always listening. It was their job to know the swamps; to protect them. His body grew tense and his ears swiveled towards a sound. It was soft, but a sound that was fairly foreign to this part of the swamps; the sound of a human. His nostrils flared softly as he caught the scent. It was a female. He moved quietly closer and realized the sound was crying. He kept moving closer until finally he could see and he was even more surprised to find that it was a child.
Keri looked up from her tears and gasped softly. In a clearing of the swamp, not more than twenty feet from her, stood the most amazing thing she had ever seen; a Bayou Kelpie. He was beautiful. A dark bay, almost black with pristine white antlers, mane and tail. They seemed impossibly white considering the swampy conditions surrounding them. But what drew her attention the most were the markings covering his body. Amidst the dark bay were white marbled looking markings that covered his stomach, part of his neck and face. The creature stood immobile and watched her.
“You’re like me” She said softly as she stood and started moving slowly towards him. Rumex flared his nostrils and pawed the ground with one front foot, a warning to her to stay back. Yet at the same time he didn’t move. He was oddly drawn to the human child who was so different looking from any other human he had ever seen. He watched her as she kept moving slowly closer, his amber eyes never leaving her.
“You are stunning. I wish I was as pretty as you.”
Her voice was soft and quiet and before he knew it she was standing directly in front of him, her little hand stretched out towards his nose. He blew a sharp, short breath at her and pinned his ears but did not move. He would not normally tolerate a human being this close and it was in his nature to harm or kill any that tried to tame him at all, but for some reason this one was different. He couldn’t hurt her, could he? She was just a child.
Keri smiled at the fact that the Kelpie hadn’t run from her yet. She knew they could be dangerous, but she just had to try. She inched closer, hoping he would let her pet him.
“I won’t hurt you. I’ve wanted to see you my whole life.”
She stood on her tiptoes and gently put her hand on his muzzle. Rumex jerked his head back but in that instant knew the damage had been done. He had felt all her pain, knew all her secrets just like he knew those of the swamps and he knew he would always be drawn to her, to protect her the way he did the swamp that she seemed almost a part of.
“Thank you” she whispered, as though she knew, and he watched her as she quietly backed away. He knew it was a mistake. He knew he couldn’t be connected to a human this way, but he also knew in his heart that there was no turning back. She was his, and he protected what belonged to him.
