Buckeye / 10 / Lt. / M - Jade, Alaska, Orion
Buckeye hurriedly backed up, head raised, ears tilted back slightly to avoid being easily bit if either of the agitated mares attacked. It was unusual for lone mares to come so close to the herd, and Buckeye wasn't entirely certain how to address them. They certainly weren't a threat, after all.
The lieutenant threw a slightly desperate glance to his leader. "Er," he began, tilting his head away from the mares in an attempt to set them at ease. With the smell of blood thick in the air, surely it would be dangerous to let the heavily pregnant mares wander away. More predators were likely to swarm the woods soon. |

Dez || 6 || Herd Stallion || M: Herd, Lone mares, Ares With all the sudden commotion happening so early in the morning, the flaxen stallion had woken abruptly and was now in a semi-irritable mood. As everyone crowded around the foalless and bloodied mare, Dez stayed his distance; nothing could be more dangerous than a distraught mare, and he had no intentions of getting involved with any of the drama going on around him. His eyes wandered to where Buckeye was being met with two lone mares, neither of which looked very happy, and then to where Orion was dealing with each situation that presented itself. It was then, with great reluctance, that he realized he was the only one available to meet the next challenge that showed its face: a single horse was moving at a lope towards the herd, and the wind carried a stallion's scent. Dez pinned his ears and moved to intercept the newcomer, muttering under his breath about how ridiculous the day had started. He was in no mood to be welcoming and, with the new threat of mountain lions on the herd's doorstep, an extra stallion could either be very good or absolutely terrible. Either way, Dez had the feeling that the lieutenant or lead stallion would end up confronting this horse. He released an alarm call to both stallions, still moving in Ares' direction. |

Ares||Stallion||5 years||Lone stallion||M:Twilight herd, Dez
Ares slowed his paste to a trot then stoped infront of the flaxen stallion swaying his tail nervously "Greetings my name is Ares and im no threat to this fine herd." The stallion started with a polite introduction pausing as he looked behind the stallion before continuing. "as you may know mountian lions are in the area causing much trouble. iv always wanted to join a herd and this is a good opportunity for me, so if you would get your lead stallion or lieutenant i will be very grateful" the stallion finished he kept his position relaxed and calm though you could see in his eyes and and the way he swayed his tail he was very nervous and alert.

Apollo || 2 Months || Colt || M: Astraea, Rain, Epiales, Blake Apollo smiles at his “sister” cantering after her. However, he soon skids to a stop, turning his head to look at his mother. He glances between the two horses - torn between them. He did want to race Rain, but he also wanted to listen to his mother’s order. Astraea notices her foal’s dilemma - nodding her head the next time he looks her way. “It’s alright, young one. I’ll join you soon.” The young bay dun begins to vibrate in excitement. He breaks into a galop, rushing over to the black spotted yearling. “Coming, but not too far, I’m supposed to be near my mother now!” He soon arrives by his sister's side, ready to race. He bends down in a goofy pose, ready to take off. However, before he takes off, he pauses - an idea forming. The young colt canters a few steps away, heading to the herd. He looks back, calling over his shoulder, “I’ll be right back, I want someone to join us!” Apollo continues his way to the herd. He stopped suddenly when he ran into someone’s leg. Apollo looked up seeing the infamous black and white stallion. His glaring near-red eyes bore into the young horse’s hide - seemingly try to tear him apart with just a glance. His mane waves behind him as he glared down at him, waving like smoke behind him. The dun foal flinches, ducking down and shaking. “S-s-sorry M-mister! I w-won’t do it again!” The colt skitters around the nightmarish yearling, hurrying to get back to his original mission. Behind him, Epiales tilts his head - confused by the interaction… or he would be, if he was not used to it. The imposing stallion then shakes his head, going back to looking for his mother. Apollo soon spots who he was looking for - the nearly full-white colt he encountered earlier. He canters up to the younger foal, skidding to a stop before he runs into him. His amber-brown eyes shimmer in excitement. He then asks, nearly shouting, “Want to join a race with me and my sister?!” |

Blake | Colt | Twilight Falls foal | 10 months | Mentions: Apollo, Adira, Open <><><><><><><><><><> It was safe to say that Blake was a confused and a little more then mildly disappointed when Apollo had first left him to join his mother, and he blows a soft huff as he pokes at the grass while deep in thought. A brief moment of consideration told him that trying to nap right about now was pointless, and his mother had begun to wake as well hearing the call from Astrea, so he didn't have to worry about waking her either. The colt stood there waiting for his mother to stand and join him, when he lifted his head to see Apollo running towards him not far off, to which he tilts his head and flicked his ear patiently. When the younger foal eventually reached him, almost half shouting and asked if he wanted to join him and his sister in a race, he blinked slowly as his blue-brown eyes filled with wary confusion but gradually started to look interested; a race was something he could definitely do. "Oh - sure, I'd like that. But just a warning, I'm really fast." The foal turned his head to glance at his mother for approval to go race with Apollo, to which the inky black maregives a slow nod of her head, huffing tiredly as she blinked sleep out of her eyes and went to graze for a bit; the only comment she made was that she could see him. ~ Blake gives the slightest smile at his mother's reply, saying that he'd promise to stay close, a light flick of his tail showing his amusement as he walked a few steps away from his mother to approach Apollo, tilting his head a bit before he reached over with his head to carefully snatch something off of other's mane. He pulled back holding a leaf that the other foal had gotten caught in his mane while running, to which Blake dropped it once he'd removed it as he tilted his head. "You're a little crazy, I'll admit that much. But I don't mind it." He murmured softly, then narrowed his eyes playfully before bouncing around Apollo and flicking his tail at him mischievously. "Wanna see who can reach your sister first?" |

Apollo || 2 Months || Colt || M: Blake, Rain, Open Apollo brightened at the colt’s words. His tail wags ecstatically behind while he holds the urge to shout in glee. “Maybe, but I bet I’m faster! Ready set go!” The colt springs past Blake, not even waiting for him to react - dusting flinging up behind his small hooves. Now, Apollo is known to be very fast for his age. However, with Blake being so much older than him, Apollo stood little chance against the colt with longer legs. He soon comes to a halt in front of his “sister”, breathing somewhat heavily as he works to catch his breath. The dun foal congratulates the elder colt, being a good sport as always. He then turns to his sister, his tail wagging once more. “Rain, this is Blake,” he nods to the nearly white foal as he speaks, “And Blake, this is my sister, Rain!” The colt steps back, allowing the two to greet each other. He was so glad to see these two get along - or what he assumed was getting along. After all, if he were to be friends with the older foal, he should introduce him to his family. It’s only right. After their greeting, Apollo goes to stand where his sister was before he left. “Well, are we going to race or not?!” |

Alsie // Heard Mare // Twilight Falls // Mentions: Orion // Faleen // Astraea // Others indi // Alsies body seemed to give out as Orion offered his words to lay down and that he would watch over her. Dispite her distrust she knew him well enough the he would keep his word. "Thank you." She breathed out her legs neatly splayed under her body her nostrils flaring a bit as she tried to steady her own breathing. Turning to Faleen and astraea she nodded slightly. "Of course I will go, with assistance but, not right now. Im no use to my helper if I cant make it five steps without collapsing." True words her had gently resting upon the earth now. The scent of grass filling her nose. Her coat gleamed even in its dull state. She listened to astraeas words as the lead told all the remaining mares to make sure to not birth alone or leave the young unatteneded. She also breifly raised her head to watch the other stallions in greeting a few new mares. Turning her head she brushed her muzzle to orions shoulder. "If you must go assist you may." Alsie stated softly as she shifted her hind leg some. Her soft eyes turning to the forest before she sighed and rested her head back upon the earth. She would rise in 5 or so mintues to go to the stream. For festering wounds where not something she wwanted to deal with. |

Alaska ll Lone Mare ll 4yo ll In Foal She looked around, still very unsettled as the news set in. Another wave of predator attacks! She thought worriedly. I am going to foal soon! I will have to find a safe place. "If only the herd would let Jade and I stay..." She said the last bit out loud by accident, barely audible but loud enough for the stallion to hear she thought. Alaska felt Jade's nip and backed away, snorting uneasily. She glared at the luitenant and pawed the ground. "Mountain Lions! Just when I am about to foal, great!" She whinnyed angrily. She crab stepped slightly, her brown eyes flashing from side to side. "Stallions everywhere...." She was scared, her mind flashing back to when the stallion attacked her all those months ago. She swayed on the spot, goigng in and out of conciousness before regaining her balance and stepping back towards the edge of the forest. "Well, I must go, finding a safe place for Jade and I will not be easy." She turned away from the stallion, before glancing over her shoulder and looking at him. |
