`anntho ;;down time ::
With a lagging gait I finally did make it back home, shoulders bobbing as I slowed and was just content to crash through the bracken, I was in no state to try and be quiet, what was the use when I was home? Besides, it'd only bring three other herd members that had approached me on there own so far, but then again, one of those three was always with me, and she probably didn't count as an actual herd member, more like the help.
Coming out onto the open ground I paused and stumbled with a yawn, it had been a massivly long time since I'd gone to a fight, and in all reality I wasn't as young as I used to be. Suddenly a thought came to my mind and I gave a low snort before picking up my muzzle completely and giving an actual summon for Chaos, I wouldn't be surprised it that made him feel like I actually wanted him.
With the call sent I traveled across the snow, my gait rough and choppy, everytime I over stepped a few drops of the fresh blood falling out of the gashes along my stomache splattered the ground, leaving an unattended trail. I only stopped a few feet from where I had been when I called for him, close enough to a puddle of water to bend onto my knees and rub the chilly liquid into the brush burn like mark on my neck, I wouldn't put the water onto my stomache, the bare skin would freeze before I could clean it away.

CHAOS [/center][/font] You could spill a thousand words and none would mean a thing. [/color] In the distance; it seemed almost like a cry, more than a call; but i was so suprised to hear a call from my Negreo; Anntho. She never called and never wanted to see me; what was wrong with her? In a slight panic and concern; i set off toward her call at a rapid canter; harks flattened back into my skull; eyes wide and nares flared; as the scent of decaying flesh and fresh blood came to my nares i slowed immediatly and gave a low growl; i sensed i was close; but yet i couldn't see her. "Anntho?" I called out in a musky tone; it held concern; at times like these; i wished she wasn't so good at hiding. [/color][/size]

`anntho ;;down time :: I heard him coming, jeez, he was actually making good time for always acting like he didn't want to see me. Pushing my forefeet under me I heaved upwards with a grunt and swayed unsteadily, my head spun but other than that, I was good. Waiting for the dizziness to leave me, I pushed both ears up and closed my ears, hiding the maroon shaded gaze.
When the feeling pasted I ventured forward, slinking up to him with unnaturally short strides. My gaze trailing from the snow and up onto him, judging his look, he was genuily worried. Pausing a few feet away from him I slouched forward slightly, the pelt on my neck twitching away the cold water that I had rubbed onto the mark to help soothe the burning. I'm here. I murmured, my head dropping away from it's normally dominate height, making me look up at him through my eyelashes.

CHAOS [/center][/font] You could spill a thousand words and none would mean a thing. [/color] It wasn't too long before i heard a rustling in the bushes; my skull shot around to face where she was emerging; but my harks snapped back into my skull when i saw the state she was in. she stopped a few feet away from me, was this because she simply couldn't walk further? Or because she still needed space? With hesitant steps i hurried to her side to act as a leaning post for her. I dipped my skull and snorted in disbelief; turning slowly to touch her swollen neck. "Anntho! Who did this?!" I hissed in an annoyed but worried tone, i would get them for this, Anntho had always held a special place in my heart and the bastard that did this to her would pay.

`anntho ;;down time :: With a heavy sigh I watched him move around me, coming closer, but he still seemed to think I'd bite him, which in all reality I probably would of if I wasn't wore out from the fight. When he did reach my side and I felt him on my side, and only flinched once before just leaning back against him, swatting the opposite of my haunches with my dark colored tail.
Some stallion just showed up...challenged me....said I was hiding behind you. I think..his name is Rage. I murmured, my voice tightening as Chaos's muzzle touched my neck, I was being rather neutral now, but I had a good reason, who was I supposed to be acting tough for? I guess it was a nice change for someone to actually want to kick the snot out of the guy who permanatly scarred my underside.
With a quiet grunt I shifted my weight again, dropping my head and hitching my neck against his shoulder, taking the pressure off the tender flesh, at least I got him in the nose, that would make me happy, and another thing would make it even better. Also...A little birdie shared with me. Zarian took him in. I added in a low hiss, before going silent again and listening to the world around, well, us, I guess Chaos did have a heart.

CHAOS [/center][/font] You could spill a thousand words and none would mean a thing. [/color] My black optics studied her tired frame; even breathing seemed to hurt her. And i would make it my duty to care for her and make sure she was in top form as soon as possible; i did care about her, quite alot, yet i also couldn't afford to have her out of order at this tender time. When she leaned onto me, i ave a soft snort, this was like a miricle; never before had anyone been so close, and i couldn't help but cherish the momnet, as i knew it would past by all too quickly. I knew, that in my old age i was becoming slightly more caring with my mares and family, but jessh it wouldn't hurt anyone, right? When she spoke; my muscles twitched under my chestnut pelt in anger. and i narrowed my eyes and spoke in a rough tone. "We'll soon see who he runs to hide behind.." I snarled; tightening my jaw to make my teeth grind together. Of course; i was talking about damaging the brute in some way; prehaps even killing him. When she spoke i gave a low grunt from my stomach, ah so Zarian had finally let himself out eh? He had been quiet for some time. "Lets hope he came off Zarians orders; prehaps two shall die" I murmered; keeping my voice low as i stood supporting my special dark demon; i shifted my skull so i supported her more. "Is there anything you want, Anntho?" I asked; knowing she wouldn't be happy that she couldn't do much by herself. [/size][/color]

`anntho ;;change of heart? pshh.. :: I nodded at him as he continued to speak, fading in and out of the conversation. I was still trying to devise a way to reach my own stomache. With another silenced grunt I craned my neck around, ignoring the stinging and reaching to lick at the open wounds, trying to keep them clean. With a fustrated growl I pulled my head back around and dropped it over his back, finding the position much more comfortable actually. No. What I need done, I'm not letting you do. I mumbled, nibbling at a few stray strands of his mane for my own amusement, both of my ears still lain out sideways, like I was mad, really, I was just to lazy to pick them up.

CHAOS [/center][/font] You could spill a thousand words and none would mean a thing. [/color] I watched her lick at her wounds on her stomach, this was obviously quite painful and i winced slightly...i hated seeing her in pain, along with any other mares. But somehow, i wished she would stay like she was now, munching on my tassles, being close and almost friendly with me. But i knew it would fade. When she finished cleaning, and drooped her skull over my back i rested a hind leg to lower my frame slightly, so she didn't have to reach up as far. Flicking my harks back to hear her vocals. "What is it you want done Anntho? And why won't you let me do it?" I questioned with a concerned hint in my musky tones. [/size][/color]

`anntho ;;change of heart? pshh.. :: Finally my ears turned over to listen to him, my tail swatting at my side and his shoulder, gently, unlike the first time we meet and I got this close to him. Because, I don't want your muzzle under me, nor back that far. I mutter, a yawn breaking my words, I needed to go to sleep, Chaos needed to go do whatever he did normally.
Again I backed away from him, pulling my head over his back slowly, my muzzle brushing his haunches, wow, I was being touchy. Pawing away at the snow I cleared a spot big enough for my body, and with a wince, I folded myself into the bare spot of grass, giving a releived sigh when gravity wasn't pulling on me. Flopping my head back, I let my neck land into the snow, the cold feeling nice on my swollen brush burn. You can go Chaos, I'll be fine to lay here. I murmured closing both of my eyes and letting my body relax, hmm, the first time anybody other than Thea would get to even see me vulnurable.
