the mare's voice was a mere echo as he bolted off towards the ear piercing scream that filled the air around him. one of his own, his mare, was being hurt, and he hadn't been there to stop it. pushing his body as fast as his legs would carry him, misery rushed over to vagabond's side, dark eyes glistening over with light tears as he saw the young sorrel mare lying restless on the wet soil. he closed his eyes as to give a moment of sorrow for tuka, but knew they needed to move. other predators would scent the blood of his fallen mare and come running, also it wasn't very pleasant to stay around here. opening his mocha eyes, the dappled stallion nudged vagabond ever so lightly, letting her know they needed to move. misery knew it would be tough on the older mare, but mourning here wouldn't bring the young tuka back. putting on a mask to cover his emotions, the stallion trotted off from the two, then drawing his legs forward into a canter. pinning his ears, the dappled stallion moved along towards freyja and regalia, snaking them away from the scene and to a better area. he could only hope that vagabond followed, he didn't want to snake her at this very moment. as he ran, his voice echoed in his head, you weren't there to save her, it's all your fault. the male let out a loud scream, distancing himself slightly from the two mares ahead of him. he needed some space, but he would still watch the herd- actually, he would never stop watching the herd, not after what had just taken place.

the palomino stallion watched with pricked ears as the mares before him settled their placement within his harem. he was actually taken aback when all four of the mares quickly agreed to be with him, to start his herd. with a flick of his matted white tail, he let out a surprised squeal as someone's blunt teeth made contact with his flank, though it was not painful, just startling. he whipped his head around, neck muscles rippling, as soldier looked to see who the culprit was. when he saw that it was the older chestnut mare, his muscles relaxed, letting his back hoof cock up, tossing his white mane to the side. his velvet nostrils flared at the mare's strong scent, it was very enticing. he balanced his weight on all four hooves again, running his muzzle down the mare's hind legs before snorting against her dock.

the warmblood mix landed back on all fours, running his velvety muzzle against the mare's flank before backing away. he took a few sidesteps before moving back to her side, clamping his blunt teeth down on her withers, claiming the pretty thoroughbred. he then looked over towards her dappled daughter, she was a pretty sight. soldier snorted against the chestnut's shoulder before moving over towards the buckskin mare, her scent begging him to come closer. he let out a soft nicker while approaching, bumping his muzzle against her cheek before moving forward towards her side. he let his velvet muzzle trail down her neck, stopping at her withers. he ran his teeth along her spine, then nipped at the coarse hairs before continuing his exploration. his tail flicked as he stopped at the mare's tail, nostrils flaring widely at her strong scent. with a snort, he positioned himself behind the painted mare, bumping his maw against her hind leg, asking. ( for finny. )

the older appaloosa mare continued to graze by raven, flicking her tail lightly to scare away the flies. it was rather peaceful here, her newest stallion was just gathering up new mares to expand his herd. with a snort, dani felt her stallion's muzzle against her neck, making her nicker lightly. but he was soon off again, courting a rather pretty palomino mare. the mare hadn't even really gotten to introduce herself to all of the new mares, but that would come in time. or so she thought. a loud thundering of hooves made the appaloosa snap her head up at an instant, seeing two older stallions come barging into the nice, peaceful area in which they stayed. the older of the two, a dappled dun stallion, came racing at her and raven, ears pinned. dani let out a loud squeal, kicking her hind legs out in a fury at the stallion, making contact with his broad chest. she knew the herd would eventually be overthrown by these two males, but it worried her, having two testosterone filled mares herding around five mares. it just spelled trouble in big, bold letters. snaking her head towards raven, she nipped the younger mare's hip, wanting to get her moving with her. dani let out a squeal as the male's teeth hit her spotted flank, but out of the corner of her eye she spotted savior. maybe this would give her and raven a chance to get away while the younger male was busy rounding up the younger mares. the appaloosa mare extended her black legs forward, pushing herself faster to move away from the fight.

sharp grey hooves dug into the moist soil with every step, the mustang thoroughbred mix hauling herself up the hill. she wanted nothing to do with any other equines, they weren't worth her precious time. she was in no mood for a stallion as she had just started her cycle and other mares would just piss her off. snorting loudly, the bay colored mare pinned her oval shaped ears against her chiseled skull, huffing as she pushed herself to the top of the hill. finally, now she could be alone, and gain some much needed weight. tori hungrily shoved her muzzle towards the tall green stalks, ravenously ripping up the grass with her blunt teeth, then grinding down the vegetation. she could get used to this, the whole solitary thing. she had managed to get away from all previous stallions last year and had forced herself to stay with a band of mares in the winter for warmth. as soon as the snow started to melt, tori was out of there. she needed her space and they were always pressing up against her body, craving her warmth. now she was free to be alone until winter again, that is unless a stallion was crazy enough to try and tame her wild soul.

octavia pressed her forehead to his shoulder for a moment before bringing her head back to its resting position. apparently this male wanted to speak some, which was okay with her, but her hormones were still going crazy. the painted mare pricked her oval shaped ears towards the grullo stallion, listing to his rich voice. "nice to meet you kalmin, i am octavia." she spoke with her gentle voice, scented tail flicking against her black and white haunches.
( i am so sorry for it being so short, i don't really know what to put for her >.< )

the white arabian watched the events of the herd play out before her, amused with the young mares causing trouble for the black stallion. she flagged her tail up over her arched back, continuing to spread her strong scent throughout the air. a displeased snort left her nostrils as the older lead mare decided it was a good time to move the herd. with a toss of her dished head, itami hopped down from her perch, landing on the soft ground below her. arching her neck, the mare pranced along the side of the herd, though not too close. she let out a whinny to the male, wanting his attention. she always got what she desired, and if she didn't, all hell would break loose. for now itami would just stay on the outskirts of the herd, that is until they stopped, they she would challenge the lead and take what was rightfully hers.

letting out a relaxed snort, the palomino mare continued to listen to the stallion, though still not giving him that much attention. she continued to flick her white tail against her haunches, knowing very well that the stallion could scent it. juniper wanted to see just how much this stallion could take, only then would she consider him worthy of a band stallion. the mare had to chuckle lightly at the stallion's remark about her name- she could admit that he was charming. lifting her head, the palomino finally gave the stallion some eye contact, her bright blue eyes flickering up to his. "the name is juniper. it is a pleasure to meet you." she smiled ever so slightly, looking over the stallion. he was well built, but he was younger than the mare. if she were to join him, she would need to keep themselves slightly hidden in order to evade the older stallion out on the land. "tell me timo, do you have a herd?" she questioned, her sparkling blue eyes continuing to gaze onto the ebony stallion.

the dunalino continued to stand her ground, a few feet away from the stallion. her hip stung slightly from the harsh bite he had given her, but it only fueled her anger. as the dappled stallion came closer to her, she bared her teeth menacingly, angrily lashing her tail against her haunches. she despised stallions, they weren't allowed into her presence unless she deemed them worthy, which would probably never happen, at least not with this male. as another mare came down the hill, a slight angry expression filled the three year old's face. why were these mares coming to this stallion? now absolutely confused, the mare took one glance at the stallion before lipping at the grass below her, flicking her scented tail lightly. perhaps she could lure the stallion into a false security? after all, she was getting later into her cycle, but she knew in her head she would probably even put up a slight fight at stage four. with a light whinny, xìnrèn looked over towards the stallion, flagging her tail behind her.
cendres pricked her ears as a new mare came over, showing her dominance towards herself and the sabino mare. with a snort, she pinned one ear back, but made no aggressive gesture towards joanna. she knew she was young, and there was no point in fighting. turning her head, the painted mare nickered to ezra, curiously extending her muzzle to the older mare. she lowered her head below hers in submission, making it clear she only wanted a friend and not to be in a ranking above her.
