The Wild Horses of Utasia V.2 - Not Accepting.

[eleutheromania]

The colt heard Sin and turned in her direction. He followed her now, understanding exactly what she wanted. He didn't looked behind him and slowed when he was sure they were a good distance away. The yearling colt had gotten his first target to begin with very easily under the certain circumstances.

[G.L'S]

Steel stopped drinking and nosed around for his other family members. He caught a whiff of Brumby and didn't react in fear of a stallion that was not introduced as his father. He sniffed the open air and made his way over to Poesis by scent. He nickered to his father proudly.
~~~
Poesis nodded as the stallion left to assist his other mare. He turned towards his children and nuzzled Steel when he made his way over. "Good job my son," he praised the colt and turned to Oaka unsure of what else to say.
~~~
Pandora broke into a canter and headed up the mountainside. She looked down at Utasia and her family seeing her brother venture off for the first time. She smiled at her parents and turned toward the mountain's other side and catered out of the land.
~~~
Euphoria eased herself over towards a thicket of trees. Kairan had been gone a long time and she often wondered if her stallion would ever return. She wheezed as she rested against the trunks of the trees and sunk to the ground as she felt like her lungs were failing her. She layed down hoping the rest would help, it usually did.

[red fox.]

Sin grimaced to herself, but made sure not to let the stallion see. She gazed at him silently, waiting for him to make the next move. Her only movement was a flick of her ear as she checked to make sure no one had followed them.

[eleutheromania]

"What's your name?" Deacon asked as he watched her for a moment of two. He was also checking to see if anyone had followed them but he was positive that they were out of sight now. He wondered what had gotten her to act out this boldly, if it was because of him, well he felt impressed.

[Tigermay]

Feels so good being bad,
There's no way I'm turning back.
Now pain is my pleasure
'Cause nothing could measure.

~xX Dark Light II Xx~

Dark was not paying attention, that is, until the stallion came barreling into her. After the impact—which she artfully had recovered from—she was alert and ready to fight. Her mane and tail were swaying with her movements as she backed away from the stallion to give her ample room to lash out if need be. "What the heck? Look where you're going next time, stallion," she grumbled, wanting to break up the tense moment. Now that she was on her own, she wasn't extremely eager to fight.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Once upon a time somebody ran,
Somebody ran away saying,
'Fast as I can, I got to go, I got to go.'
Once upon a time we fell apart.

~xX Xanthos Xx~

Xanthos snorted, rolling upright, but not onto her hooves. "Err, yeah," she said, tilting her head in embarrassment. She shook her head hard, ears flopping about as if she was trying to shake dirt out of them. The leopard waited a moment more then got up, putting on a smile to let everyone know she was fine.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Rising from the ashes,
You spread your wings to fly,
Reaching out now for those final dreams.
Belief will never die.

~xX Velvet Sun Xx~

Vela saw that as soon as the colt noticed her, he dropped the topic of Adara and began to flee. She had to admit, the most wonderful gloating sensation came over her at this sight. However, Sin called him back. Frowning with brow furrowed, she grudgingly let Sin take her own risks. The mare stopped, turning and passing Adara and Isis with a nod as she swiftly returned to her filly. She stopped just before Haven and all the foals and began to pace agitatedly, unsure if she should do something about Sin and still not sure if they were safe.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Oh no, I can't slow down, I can't hold back,
Though you know I wish I could.
No, there ain't no rest for the wicked,
Until we close our eyes for good.

~xX Devil's Advocate Xx~

Advocate was indeed still on the grass covered earth, and this was because Shetan was right; he needed a crutch. At Adelita's nudge, he raised his head a bit, blinking groggily. All of his wounds had stopped bleeding, but if he moved a couple would probably reopen. He had been forced to rest as the other horses took off, hoping and praying that some predator wouldn't come upon him in this state. His lips parted, his eyes clearing after a moment or two. "Sorry, Adelita." He told her, wishing that by some chance he could've won and shown that twisted stallion that he can't just do anything he wanted. His eyes closed for a long blink and when he reopened them, he looked around the clearing. "I figure he beat Isis as well and got whatever he wanted, didn't he?" The silver bay's brow furrowed and he let his head rest against the earth again. "D*mn."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Nobody's a picture perfect,
Everybody's got a dark side.
Do you love me?
Can you love mine?

~xX The Colors of Falling Xx~

Oaka tilted her head at the call, letting out a small sigh. As Brumby spoke her name she gave him a nod, showing she was ok with him going off. Now that she was once again alone with Poesis, she was a bit unsure just the stallion was. "Why don't you take off?" She gently suggested, already drifting after Brumby. "We'll talk more when they're weaned, ok?" Her eyes searched his, a bit of an apology written in their depths. She wasn't sure what exactly to think anymore, but knew that the grey stallion couldn't hang around Brumby's herd and that the foals' needed milk until they were around six months. And so what she proposed seemed to be the ideal solution for now, at least in her eyes.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

~xX Kairan Xx~

Kairan bobbed his head in reply, then looked back to where he had left his mare. "Do you mind if we go check on her? I know she seemed to be losing health recently..." He looked back at the mare, not wanting her to just go. But he had a nagging feeling in the back of his head that couldn't be ignored. And it was pulling, pulling him towards Euphoria.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

[G.L'S]

Poesis dropped his gaze to Steel and nodded. "Ya, Right," he said and nudged his son back to his mother. "I'll see you around then," he said and turned to leave. Best make a clean break while he could.
~~~
Steel felt a little confused and disoriented as his father relocated him back to his mother again. He stood looking a little stunned for a few seconds until the scents and sounds realigned.

[eleutheromania]

Relic took a few steps backwards. His long black forelock covered his eyes and he had to toss his head to get it out of his sight. He looked at the mare, mostly angry with his own clumsiness. "Sorry." He said to Dark, tail swatting at flies none stop. The large bay stallion wasn't expecting a reply but he gave a pause for her to reply if she wanted.

------------------- ---------------------

Adelita frowned. She folded her legs and laid beside him. "not truely god fault. Isis just left oddly." She told him as she thought over the events. She sighed. "Let's just keep this from Marvel for as long as possible...please." She said to Advocate. She didn't want the stallion to literally go out and get into a deadly fight with Shetan again, it wasn't pleasant the first time she had seen it as a newborn.

----------------- ------------------

"Good." Galaxy said to her and watched her get up. He didn't feel like running anymore and he was actually pretty tired now, along with hungry again. To him, his life was pretty simple at the moment, he gladly accepted it this way.

[Ariana Black]

Shadow chuckled. "A lively bunch."

Cavalia gave her a strange look. "She has Shadow."

Adara wheeled away from Deacon back to Haven and the foals.

Isis squealed and fell back. She followed after her bother blood trickling down her face.

Nefertiti and Anubia ran to her worriedly.

[eleutheromania]

Haven, no longer the comfort zone for the foals, watched the appoloosa colt run off with Si. She s offer before looking to Adara and then the mare's two grand-foals. "Does your daughter expect us to babysit while she goes after that colt?" She asked.

[Ariana Black]

Adara looked at him. "It is your daughter now in foal with her sire."

Isis came over weakly. She shook her head and blood droplets flew everywhere.

Nefertiti nursed silently.

Anubis nuzzled her sadly.
