A little [surprised] Gift (Open)

[Nevaeh]

Nevaeh

Nevaeh made her way very slowly towards her home known as Moonglade. As the chestnut and white pinto fae had to keep stopping for lots of long breaks, and taking her travelling very slowly. One reasons this nine-year-old fae, was taking it slowly was because she was weak, and also her beautiful painted daughter birthed. Nevaeh loved her daughter very much despite her filly not being the fitiest of all horses around, but neither was this chestnut and white mare, was not the fittest. Just by looking at Nevaeh’s body you could tell she had been though a lot of battles, and there was a most recent wound on her stomach was very red, but it had heel up a little bit, but was still noticeable to tell that it was a very new scar.

As her pillars stopped walking having a little rest, while she let her beautiful daughter nurse from her milk bag. Lowering her mainly ivory painted crown lowered, and nuzzled her daughter lovingly. Nevaeh did not mind that her daughter was different from others around; she also knew that it would be hard for her baby girl.
Finial we had made it to the beautiful land that is know as Moonglade, as Nevaeh crossed over the border and was home, she lay her whole chestnut and white painted body on the ground, as she was very tired. But her auds back, and let out a call, telling them she was home, Nevaeh knew it was a quite call, but it was all she could do.

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

Chimera

As opened my eye all I could see was half the beautiful world out here. Feeling a loving nudge from a mare, she’s my mother. as I turned my crown around very slowly to see her, to me she was beautiful despite the battled look she had. Slowly I began trying getting to my long pillars, after few failed attempts I had finally managed to get myself up onto my pillars. As I caught the scents around me, I knew something was very different here, and a little wrong, but I could not but a hoof on it. Shaking my little crown as soon as I heard a thud on the grass I knew we must be home, from what I could see of the land it was very beautiful. I then lay right down next to my mummy, while she scent out a call to some one.

I moved with light graceful steps through the surrounding lands. If felt good to be light again, carrying my own weight rather than an extra body too. I gave a light snort and perked my auidits forward breathing in deep breaths of fresh air, glancin down at my newly born son who matched my steps perfectly, keeping up with me with ease. He made me proud, but what would Asteria think of me now? I had birthed a colt, and not a filly, but now she had softened up on the rules around Moonglade, would she mind?

I felt him move from my side and grind to a sudden halt as we reached the edge of the realm, its strong scent of Mare dominance filled the place and he half-reared; flattening back his harks against his skull "Come child.." I hissed at him, turnin a tight circle around him and urging him forwar,d clacking my teeth at him rump. I let loose a call for the herd, i wanted to meet up and talk, it had been a while. however, as i continued at a trot throughout the lands; i soon spotted the duo coloured mare, Nevaeh, with a very small and weak looking foal. A slight frown spread across my facade and i made haste to greet her, givin her a nod and nickering a small hello; i slowed to a walk and halted close by her. "Greetings Nevaeh; everything okay? I thought i would be the first to return, is the foal okay?" I asked, concerned as she looked so weak and tired.

[Nevaeh]

Nevaeh

Chestnut auds flicked back and forth when hearing hooves upon the grass, as she lifted her mainly white crown off the ground while blue orbs scanned the area and then, once she saw the black mare know to her as Chiron, and heard her vocals, but Nevaeh was also making sure that Chimera’s farther wasn’t anywhere near her. this chestnut and white painted mare, was tired and very scared despite she had already met the large fae. All you had to do was look at Nevaeh’s blue ice to know that she was scared, but trying. It took her a while to open her muzzle. Hey Chiron, I’ll be fine in a few days. turning her crown towards her daughter, she then gave her daughter a nudge. She isn’t perfect as foals go but I don’t think giving birth in winter helps either, but Chimera is perfect for me. What about you?

[/color] It was also not very hard to tell that Nevaeh had a lot more scars on her the last time she had been seen.

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

Chimera

My auds could hear very well, as I listened to what was going on, as my nares open I caught scent of two horses. While I let my eyelid lift up, I knew my white eye was closer to my mother, and then I turned my little foal crown around towards who she was talking to, as my ice blue orb then looked at her. To me she was a giant, What did mum call her? oh yes Chiron. I knew I was too weak and tired to stand, and as I felt my mum nudge my I have a happy little sigh. While my auds still flicked back and forth. Hearing my name both of my auds pricked forward, I would only speak when I was taken to, and not before.

My amber optics lockewd onto the skewbalds frame; frowning slightly as my gaze lurked upon her wounds. I had fought in many battles; and only once had i scarred. And that large scar ran from my left eye down to my muzzle. I gave her a soft smile, i did feel sorry for her; the poor mare, but i had to admit that the stallion that had caused them, knew how to fight. My gaze shifted from her to the foal that lay by her side. I gave a soft snort. "Well, not all of us can be so lucky hmm? The magic of the Galde will keep her alive and safe, no worries there, Nevaeh." I spoke with sweet words, yet my voice was still strong and catty. "I am fine, dear." I added with a slight nod, again i glanced down at the foal; and noticed the colt shift forward to take a look a the pair and i stepped back, leaving him out in the open, giving him a firm hard nusdge forward. I wwouldn't let him be a coward.

Never say never

I shifted from my mother's side, Amber optics glaring at the other two; this place wreaked with the stench of dominating mares and i didn't like it; stallions were supposed to be in charge, where was my father? Where was this fillies father? i wanted to fight and learn from them. Giving a warning snort to my mother, i reared up and grazed my pearls along her skin, ending it with a firm nip; I darted forward; arching my neck and flciking my stubble tail, standing tall and proud. I extended my right foreleg and spoke with strong confident words "I'm Asylum." I boomed, my deep voice was cocky and charming, i gave a smirk and glanced down at Chimera, would she get up and start playing or just lie there? Of course, i didn't know how weak she was.

[Nevaeh]

Nevaeh

Blue orbs watched what was going on around her, and to what the black Friesian mare called Chiron saying towards her. The chestnut and white paint fae just hoped that Chimera would be fine and safe because she did not want her farther finding out that she had given birth all ready. Shaking her crown which caused her white part of her my to hit her neck lightly. I just hope her farther doesn’t know. I don’t want him to know yet. That’s good to here. turning her white crown towards her young daughter, but she was still very beautiful to Nevaeh.

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

Chimera

Turning my crown towards the black colt that stood in front off me. Auds pricked forward hearing what he was called. I did want to play in one way, but I also knew I couldn’t I was to weak to even stand up at the moment to my frustration, I gave a little snort at that. I then opened my maw Hello Asylum. I’m Chimera. I then let my blue orb watching the black colt that was standing in front of me. While my auds flicked back and forth listening to what was going on around me.

The stars will guide me

Three duo colored bodies erupted out of nowhere as the shadows gave away for the day, the night had been a hard one but strangely enough I felt full of energy and I was very eager to return to the Glade to show off my two girls. Our tempo was slow and stops were frequent – the little one didn’t fare well and I was quite worried for her health, would she survive the day? She seemed so small and fragile. I twisted my slender neck to stare at the other filly and yet again I was surprised by her energy and curiosity – she was absolutely everywhere already! I rolled my blue orbs as the stronger one danced to the side and did a series of bucks and jumps, what a show off! That had to be from Zack’s side, no doubt about it. For now I ignored her energy and instead focused on my youngest paying attention to every step she took and every breath that left her vulnerable body. I barely noticed as we crossed the border to Moonglade, it was only as Chiron’s dark voice reached my sensitive auds that my head picked up and I upped the pace a little – yet still being very mindful of the smaller filly. Soon the four equines came in sight and immediately I sent Chiron a grin before focusing my orbs upon the black bundle at her side. The colt was large and healthy and I enjoyed seeing Chiron’s fiery spirit shine through his amber orbs – he would be an excellent protector he if choose to stay. Next I let my eyes glide to Nevaeh and sent her an acknowledging nod before setting my eyes on her tiny tiny filly; she seemed even smaller and more fragile than my youngest! Immediately protector instinct wafted through my veins and I promised to myself that I’d do everything in my power to protect the little girl from any harm.

Their names spun around in my head like a twister as I desperately tried to note them down and forever imprint them in my head. “Asylum and Chimera. Beautiful names.” I uttered in a low and soft tone while looking at the two foals with a tender gaze. I turned my head to look at my two fillies – only to find one, where on earth was the other? Panic spread through my veins and I quickly jerked my head back to Chiron – only to find my oldest standing next to the Black mare. I let out a sigh of relief and mentally prepared myself for the next two years – she would surely be a pain to raise! A grin formed on my lips, perhaps I should let Zack care for her? I lowered my crown slightly before letting their names roll out of my mouth, I hadn´t really given it much thought, only that their names had to have something to do with the sky. “Chiron, Nevaeh – meet Venus” I nodded towards the larger filly currently staring intently at Chiron. “And Vulpecula” I turned my cranium to nod towards the smaller one at my flank.

It's showtime!

Everything was so new and exciting for the new filly – her limbs were already long and steady as she shifted between gaits at her slow mother’s side. She had been graced with striking blue orbs and a duo colored pelt to match the one of her mother – but where her dam was slow and boring, she was full of energy and filled to the edge with curiousity. Small crown turned to stare at her younger sibling – why wasn’t she dancing about? There was no fun in hiding at mother’s side! Venus edged a little away from her mother and sister before doing a serie of bucks and funny jumps to show off. But the playing stopped as soon as they crossed the border to the purple paradise. Tiny ears pricked forward and frame tensed slightly at the new atmosphere; this was really interesting! Blue orbs scanned everything for new things to explore or .. well, other stuff. If you looked at the young filly from the outside she would appear cocky and arrogant already, but truly she was just a very curious young lady – with a healthy appetite for new exciting things. Her duo colored pelt didn’t provide her with any sort of camouflage here so she wisely choose to stay a little closer to her mother – that was, until she spotted the black mare. Venus had never in her (very short) life seen an equine like her and already she was intrigued, she was enormous! Without thinking twice the young filly dashed forward to stand in front of the huge black giant; what was she? Some kind of titan? Curiosity took over and soon the small princess found herself pressing her pale muzzle against the larger female’s broad chest to check if she really existed. “Wow!” She muttered to herself before turning to her mother with a huge grin planted on her young lips. “See mother! It’s huge!” Venus exclaimed in a ‘oh-look-what-i-found’ tone. It was then she spotted the dark youngster standing a few yards away from her. “Who are you?” The young princess asked with shining blue orbs and a curiosity without boundaries.

; ZACK
- The wind has changed it’s decision again.

So, this was what nervous fathers felt like – and I just believed that this was an old folklore, spoken by the maidens to scare us. Hmpf. Crystals opened slowly, staring up into the dwelling hues of the coming night, soft smile molding across my inky maw, affectionate expression holding an ounce of that anxiety. It was still okay though; I didn’t know Asteria very well, but I could assume that she would be a terrific mother. Besides, didn’t they already have that mothering instinct? Clouded mind was suddenly cleared, as voices carried to my radars, gently pricked forward, intent. Although I was rather.. new here, I knew who it was; the grim tones of Chiron. Barrel shook in a small, bright chuckle – she must have foaled! The sight of small children scampering around your limbs must be addictive. Inky stilts pushed my limber statue forward, pace quickening, stretching and reaching past my mate’s realm with every step. Lilac hues lit up my camouflaged form, and my pace only slackened when crystals caught the group together. Nevaeh and her child were there, and of course, Chiron and her leggy, cynical tyke. Throat shook in a faint attempt to whicker to the pairs, handsome voice carrying to them – only cutting off when I still noticed that Asteria was absent. Gaze dropped slightly, maw tightened around ivorns, and I started forward, smile returning to my façade.

”Nevaeh, Chiron! You’ve foaled already!” My voice exclaimed out of sheer happiness. I flashed both of the essa’s a warm smile, then let my crystals drop down to their children – façade softened slightly with a pitying feeling for Nevaeh’s weak filly. I watched her silently, managed a small lift of my lips, then sidled over to the ebony colt, already tall and bulky. Crown flipped slightly, vocals lifting out into the warm air, staring at Chiron. ”You haven’t seen Asteria, have you?” Almost as though my mate’s sweet calling was like a magic spell, nares inhaled deeply, carrying with it her sweet fragrance – intertwined with that of our child. Ivorns were shown in a large grin, and my frame lifted off the ground, wheeling around to stare expectantly at Asteria. When she appeared, surprise rung in my crystals, widening. In front of my mate’s splashed frame was a leggy child, molding our looks together. Orbs brightened, trailing to Asteria’s side, snorting abruptly when a much smaller, awkward child was spotted, clinging to her mother’s form desperately. Twins? Twins?! I waited for Asteria’s sweet arrival, and immediately greeted her, arched boa engulfing over her withers, embracing her delicately. ”Asteria! It’s so good to see you again.” Words were murmured, and after a moment of scenting my queen warmly, I released her and stepped back, watching my.. first born? Approach Chiron, and only soon after did I heard Asteria’s voice float out in a harmonious tune; Venus and Vulpecula. Orbs peeked over my mate’s ebony splashed form, watching the tiny pinto child with admiring eyes. If there could ever me a moment where I’d promise to be a good father, it would be now. Soft sight emitted into the cool breeze, locking this memory away in the back of his mind.

; VULPECULA
- Once in a while,

This world.. It was so interesting. Mocha tinted maw mouthed silent words as her crystal blue orbs took in the surrounding world; how was her sister so brave? Gangly limbs struggled with each step; trying not to fall behind – she could be forgotten if she did! Soft whimper escaped her duo toned lips, inky tresses batting her sides softly. Couldn’t mother slow down some? Tender crown turned slightly, staring at her older sibling, envious. Only when she clung too close to mother and ran into mother’s long forelimb did she start to fade, creating a small distance between them. Slender boa tipped forward cautiously, orbs peeking around this new place. Statue slowed, taking a deep breath, deflating when mother started to hurry forward – without her. Surprised squeal emitted from the child’s ebony lips, rickety stilts scrambling after the pair. ”Wa-it!” The child exclaimed quietly, her pace increasing until it was a strange, see-sawing run that lasted until she had almost reached her elder sister’s form, tiny mug reaching her sister, who had long since stopped, and was staring at a tank of an animal. Crystal orbs widened frightfully, and her small statue wheeled around, barreling towards her mother, whimpering. You’d think that the giant would have eaten the poor child. ”Mother!” The newborn started, motioning to the inky, draft form. Stilts then carried herself closer to her mothers flanks, reaching under and nursing ferociously, as though she thought she would be lost forever. Orbs opened underneath her mother’s large stomach, blinking with surprise when she spotted another pair of inky limbs. Soft snort escaped the child’s lips, and she peeked up, right into the façade of her.. father? Identical orbs blinked, and a small, shy smile lit up her kissers, and she soon sidled away, butting her tiny crown into her mother’s forelimb, radars pricking forward at her sweet words. Vulpecula? What in the heavens did that mean? ”Sissy...” Vulpe started quietly, soft, high pitched vocals pleading her brave counter part to return to mother’s side, ”Sissy, come back here..” Statue froze when a hot breath was felt above her back. Flimsy boa turned slightly, the black steed breathing upon her withers, and he was embracing mother. Was that love? Oh, such a fairy-tale this might be!

Black tresses spilled over my facade as a slight nod was given to Nevaeh; the foal she had laid by her side was weak, no duoght about it; however she held some qualities, her father, whoever he was must be a fine stud; but by the was she decribed him; he was dark. I lowered my skull to take a closer look at the lightly patched filly. "You will grow strong if you stay here Chimera; the glade will guide you." I spoke in harmonical vocals, yet they still held dominance and power.

It wasn't long before Asteria; the painted mistress herself came into veiw; with two?! When she sent me a grin; I couldn't help but give a sly chuckle. One bounced happily around her; the other stuck to her side; obviously the weaker one. I gave a low nicker of welcome and steppd forward to greet her; pulling gently at her tassles before backing up to give her room. "Welcome back, Asteria; their beautiful." I spoke with such a proud tone; my little angel; she was perfect in everyway, grown up so fast, learnt so quickly.

I grinned at her when she spoke of Asylum and nodded softly when she told me the names of her precious fillies; but before i could reply, i found a miniture version of the Queen prodding my chest and exclasiming about my size. Arching my bulging neck so i could peer down at her; i managed a grin and spoke in a powerful deep voice. "Venus; child. I would be careful who you wander up to in the future." I grinned down at her; feeling such an intimate touch off someone other than Asteria made me feel slightly uneasy; i ermained still for a few moments but i soon backed up and away from her; smiling, all the way.

My glance soon turned to Zack, who had appeared by Asteria's side; there was something about the brute that held my anger inside and i nodded to him. "Yes; Zack, his name is Asylum." I confronted as the colt walked away from me, neck arched and stumpy tail kinked slightly.

Never say never.

Listening to everything that was going on, my amber optics glanced from Chimera to the apparant 'Queen' who had arrived, with two other beautiful fillies; imediatly, i pranced forward; neck arched and tail kinked; a shook my tassles and snorted, jogging smartly to Venus's side i turned my crown to nip playfully at her shoulder. " 'Lo there, Venus. Asylum. I'm Asylum." I told her; standing proud by her side; i was much taller, as pour breeds differed greatly; I took a glance back at the smaller filly who hadn't spoken yet and walked over to her next; curiousity shone bright in my intelligent amber eyes. Hestitantly, i extended my neck out to touch her muzzle; i could tell she was much queiter and more shy than Venus, and i didn't really want to scare her away. "Hello, Vulpecula; come play, will oyu?" I asked in a calm tone; before prancing forward once more to Venus; nudging her hind in a playful yet demanding gesture.

[Nevaeh]

Nevaeh

Nevaeh began to get on her hooves when chimera gave her a little nudge. As the chestnut and white painted mare was standing she the listened to what was going on around her. Nevaeh was still nervous despite that she had all ready seen and meet the other horses around her. As her ice blue orbs watched her beautiful painted daughter walking towards her. despite Nevaeh being nearly ten years old she was still a very quite mare, and also knowing who Chimera’s farther was, and this painted fae regret what she did when she was younger, and she did not want to go though that again with Chimera.


Chimera

Slowly I began to stand on my little foal pillars, as I began to turn my little crown to duck underneath my mummy I then began to drink from my mummy’s milk bag. As I began to try and walk on my hooves, my legs were still very wobbley. When I finished having a drink, I slowly managed to turn my body around and looked at everyone though my beautiful blue orb, then I began thinking about what had been said to me, about his place I’m in, what I could see off this place called the Glade it was beautiful. I did not know what to say or anything so I kept myself quite, because I had not been asked anything. Then when I saw a few other horses coming in, I knew I want to play, but something was telling me I could not play.
