History: Wayra was born into a wild herd in the Appalachians. He was the lead stallion of his herd for a year, and a good one at that. He was by far the fastest in the herd, and outran all other horses he met. Quechua tribe had been silently stalking that exact herd, having had their horse numbers dwindled down from an attack from another tribe. They quickly targeted the large, fast stallion and captured him within the first week of spotting him. The stallion resented these humans for a while, but eventually gave in and became a trustworthy horse.
Story: Wayra's footsteps were silent as he carefully walked along the mountain pass, a nearly impossible fast due to the hard and rocky ground beneath the stallions hard hooves. He had left his large herd only a few bends back, a risky choice, but one he would take.
For about a week now, he had his eyes set on a mare from another heard. She was a beautiful chestnut pintaloosa, her coat sleek and glossy. She had long and elegant legs, her perfectly arched neck prouldy holding her perfectly shaped head in the air. He was seeking her to be his new lead mare, seeing that his current lead mare was an older horse on her last leg.
Usually he would have made his usual reckless decision of stealing the mare the minute he set eyes on her, but this one was different. He had just cleared the next bend when he came to a halt, finally catching a sight of the other neighbooring herd. To his luck, the beautiful mare was on the outskirts of the herd, making it easier for him to steal her without the lead stallion noticing.
He slowly began walking closer to the herd, carefully placing each hoof with unusual stealth for a horse. He was only a few horses away from the desired mare when his ears picked up a sharp neigh of a horse. His head whipped to the side where he had heard the noise, and to his dismay he discovered several horses galloping towards him and the herd. The amount of horses were too small to form a herd, and had odd blue and red markings painted onto their coats. He noticed there was an odd creature riding on the backs of each horse, completely naked of hair except for a long tuft of hair flowing from the top of their heads.
The herd spooked, frightened neighs echoing through the mountain. The herd began to disperse, and Wayra reared, bunching his muscles up to take off. His hooves clattered to the ground when he felt a strange string of pressure tightening around his graceful neck. He trashed his head, trying to rid the uncomfortable object and instead feeling another slip over his head and tighten around his neck. He gave up after a few moments, instead staring at the creatures on top of the horses with hard and wild eyes. The other horses stared at him with sympathy, but the creatures stare remained hard.
They lead the feisty stallion away to an unfamiliar land outside of the mountains, where they tied feathers to his hair and painted similar markings onto his coat that the other horses had. He struggled briefly through every step, resenting these creatures for taking him away from his home.
Sorry for the bad ending >.<
