( Ahh..okay..no pressure..heh heh..
And that's fine..hearing is fine..that's great, working out great..
I'm gonna back away now..)

Amaris looked up, ears alert and listening. Was that another horse?
A sign of life, hurrah!
Then again, this could go in two different directions. She had no way of knowing if the horse who was whinnying was friend or foe. For all she knew she could be on some stallion's land..
She stood there for a moment, thinking it over. She was still listening though.

Alarico saw Makkila and ran after her almost in full speed, but that'd be a waste of his energy don't you think?. Well he was seemingly concentrated on this yearling now, he had his mind set, and one way or another, he'd get to her.

Makkila saw Alarico trailing her and thought of a small plan in mind. She smiled and pushed forward, hoping her idea would work.

Karma
He was moved aside slightly, but took off after them again, cursing several times under his breath. Of course, with Karma's luck, he wasn't fast enough and even if he was he couldn't do anything about Alarico. Finally realizing this, something that he should have realized with Ebony--that he wouldn't have a successful herd-- Karma slowed to a trot then eventually halted and watched. He knew he shouldn't have tried to start a herd; just stick with having allies for his future plans, like he had told that one stallion in Havana. Maybe it was just because he was so young that he was failing, and that he had only tried to begin a herd because he wanted to prove he was capable of doing it, but Karma would try something a couple of times and if it didn't work out he'd give up and probably never make another attempt again. He wasn't too persistent.

Makkila thundered into the forest at a wicked speed, knowing exactly where she was from when she wandered before she got lost. She pushed onwards, jumping roots and bushes in her way. It was just a bit further...

(*gets gag ready* Jk )
Anguis was getting irate now and trumpeted loud and clear once before going to drink then graze a bit. Same routine as he had done before, it felt like he was stocking up but for what he didn't know.

Rai felt a bit ashamed. "But I probably wouldn't treat it as one of my own." She admitted and brushed her muzzle against his. "If it's Reaper's, I just don't know Parousia, it's my first foal and the circumstances are horrible. I mean really; I don't know the father, I'll probably be a horrible mother, and the lead hates my guts." She sighed and didn't even dare to speak the last line. How worse can it get? Rai pressed against him and took a few steps back to the herd.

Alarico was gaining on the yearling now. He reached out and nipped at her flank, though softly, but trust me, he would bite her if she didn't listen to him. He was in control though he knew she had a mind of her own at the moment, but a lesson would be learned either the hard or easy way.

( EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP D: )

Amaris sighed. She'd never know until she tried..
Gathering her remaining strength, she whinnied back, as loudly as she could. She felt like simply laying down, but she couldn't rest. Not now, if someone heard her. Someone, somewhere would know she was out there. They might come looking for her.

[G.L'S]

Parousia understood her point of view. It wasn't an easy thing. He saw his own mother go through something similar once but he was told the foal died luckily for her. He nuzzled and walked back with her. "I know about Amira and I know I will have to either elect one as lead and lose the other. As for the foal, Reaper's always had a soft spot for children. If you didn't want to raise it, I'm sure he'd take care of it somehow."

Makkila felt a nip and smiled a bit? Does that mean faster? Well okay! she thought and pushed forward. She burst through the clearing to see her mother. She winnied like a baby foal.

Shady saw the stallion again and whinnied in rage. She let Makkila return and stand with Treesha.

Anguis flicks his ears in question when he hears a feeble reply. Not interested in the mares by the watering hole, he struck out at a canter toward the sound. His reply echoed again and he flattened out into a gallop, a his long black legs pumping hard and fast. For a large heavier set horse he was pretty fast but still wasn't much of a match for an Arab or something.

Rai made a horrible face at the mention of Reaper having her foal. "It'll be touch and go Parousia. Touch and go." She replied, not really sure how things would end up.
