Darken Nights

Sohalia

My ghostly limbs brings me into the new land while I followed Yarraman scents that he left for me. My sentinels forward listening to the new sounds that the land gave. My icy lanterns scanning my new surrounding of this place called Taunting Marshes. The more my limbs carry me into this land, the more I understood its name, as the new suited it while. Small roots showed them selfs in the dirt path that I walked upon, while they looked like tiny rattle snakes dancing upon the earth. A thick blanket of fog lurked above the earth. The storm was still coming forth toward the land while it still made itself known with a rumble of thunder and the stronger breeze whimping through the timbers. I looked through the thick timbers, into the darkness while I notice a few pair of red eyes blinking and staring at my ghostly carcass while I still made my way down the path toward Yarraman. I let out a warning snort toward the blinking red eyes while I could felt there stare upon my flesh. Was my mind playing tricks on me. Was the souls wolves lurking in the shadows wanting the next soul of prey. Who knew.

My cerebrum held low to the earth, my sentinels now lower as they touched my upper tassels. My icy lanterns filled with hate and rage, the reason was unknown why, but thats how she felt. I released small snorts in the darkness to let Yarraman know I was on my way. My smoky talons hit the earth with force while I was in a fast gallop. I didn't care who heard me in this hell hole. Everyone would know me soon. So why do I care. I was here for Yarraman. I came to a halt in a small meadow. My cerebrum rose to its normal level while I let a call out for all to hear, but it was for Yarraman, for him to know that his new mare was here. I lower my cerebrum make toward the earth while I began to graze upon the flora while I hated for him.

Bite me.

Most of my wounds still hadn't healed; an open gash was still spilling with crimson from my right shoulder. Other bites and scratches were minor. Nothing to worry about. I enjoyed pain, especially when it was given from those who thought it was painful. Ha. I let a low cackle escpe my blood stained kissers as i patrolled my home, i was the princess here, i had duties to do. And making sure no-one crossed the border uninvited was one job on the top of my list.

Dark Bay carcass hifted with ease upon the rough and rocky terrian, the swamps clung for my body, sucking my down, but this was all a daily routine now, i was far too used to it. I barely even realised now. As i passed by the caves i loved to visit, i peeped inside, my dark musky mocha optics scanning the gloomy caves.

Black tipped audits snapped back, as a new unfamiliar scent wafted through my nares. I let a low, yet loud growl flew from my kissers as i lunged into a flat out gallop towards the scent, as it became stronger, i picked up further speed. And as the cremello came into veiw. I skidded to a hlat, dirt and water flying everywhere, splattering my already dirty pelt. Hakrs where hidden in my mane, mocha optics narrowed to slits, nares wide. My jaw opened and i clacked fangs together loudly, stalking forward with ym neck extended low. "Who are you." I spat, my tones hissing, how dare she just wander into the realm, invited or not, she should of waited at the border and called for someone to escort her.

Keeping my angry eye on her, i began to circle her, every now and then snapping my fangs at her, warning her, waiting for her answer.

ooc; ew ew ew, sorry, that post sucks

My sentinels lowers to there graves while I seen another soul rushing toward me. Her blood bay bodice stretched over the earth like one of a thoughbred. My lanterns watches the wrench while she circled my creamy pelt. My icy lanterns watches her circle me like some kind of prey and indeed she was really to pounce. But the only thing that I could think of, if you feeling that froggy why don't you just leap sweetheart. It might be fun. I let out a slight smirk while this wench held her cerebrum low in a threat toward me. But little did I care about this. I wasn't going to waste my time stinking to her level playing kids game. There just wasn't time for that.

I released a chuckle toward the minx while my voice released toward her. I'm Sohalia, wench. Thats all what I had to say toward her. I wasn't wanting her title nor did I care for the fact of wasting my breath on her asking her things. This might change later on. But right now she wasn't nothing but a pest to me.

I could feel her fangs crackling just inches from my flesh while I let my tangle creamy whip hit my sides as I treated her like the pest she was. My sentinels flickers while I tryed to listen to anymore sounds that might be heard, but I couldn't hear nothing over this loud minx. Didn't she have any grace and style? I guess not. I let out another chuckle her while my cerebrum shook from side to side. Indeed many may be scared of her and I wasn't one of them.

[sorry its on the short side. blah, I have no muse tonight.]

Today had been a good day, I thought as I travled towards the entrance to Taunting Marshes. For I had a new very promising mare to my already dark herd. Sohalia was not only attractive by appearance but also by personality. I loved the why her starch pelt gleamed against the rays of the sun and her light blue optical held so many mysterious that I wanted to un foaled. Then their was the most important aspect- her personality. Sohalia was passive but she held so much evil inside her and I one day she would let it all go and become an even more powerful mare. She reminded me of a hibernating volcano and I couldn't wait until she erupted.

On our way from Zukura Brook I had travled a good distance in front of the mare, but left her signs to know where to go. I wanted her to feel the power that Taunting Marshes- her knew home held. I wanted to see how she would react to the stench of hell that it produced. Plus the storm was coming closer and with it my beast was rising. It had been a long time since a thunder storm had passed through Midnight Acres and this one would be big. Perhaps big enough to fill the quenched marshes? I hoped so. But if they filled I would have to warn the herd. The last thing I wanted to to was to be rescuing a member from the quick sand.

I had travled to the the cluster of caverns to send my spies to warn the herd members of the storm and tell them that we would soon be having a herd meeting. For I needed to have my newcomers know about what I expected of them and maybe I will have chosen my queen by then? Only time would tell. So now that the bats where out looking for the herd members I was free to meet Sohalia at the entrance, for she would have already arrived. My grey pelt blended in with the trees as I cantered soundlessly through the cluster of trees. As I neared the entrance a smirk crossed my maw. So my darling daughter had reached the new mare first. Well this would be interesting.
Coming to a halt walk I watched the two mares quietly from a distance. Cocaine's bay pelt clashed with the white of Sohalia's, I just hoped their personality's worked well together. For after all Cocaine was the heiress to these lands and the one and only daughter of Sophie my late queen. Seeing my daughters auds embedded into her skull I knew that she wouldn't be welcoming to my new mare. However I waited a few moments to see how the two would react. When Cocaine started to circle the white mare and snap her jaws I decided it was time to step in. Not to defend Sohalia for I knew that she could take care of herself, but to put my daughter in her place.

Trotting forward I came in between the two mares. I smirked as I saw how Sohalia reacted, well it was good that she knew how to take care of herself and didn't resort to violence at first. I shot Cocaine a warning look. And then turned my attention back to the white fae. "Cocaine. This is Sohalia, as you already know. She is a new member of my herd." I paused to let my words sink in for even though Cocaine was the heiress she was only the heiress not a queen. "Sohalia this is my daughter, heiress to this terra, Cocaine." I stepped forward and nudged the white fae, as a sing of welcome and acceptance to my home. "Well Sohalia this is Taunting Marshes your knew home. There a a few other mares wondering around here." I waited for the clash of thunder to fade before I finished speaking. " I anticipate the storm to pass right through here, so it would be wise for you to stay away from the thick swaps as you don't know where the wholes are. There are caves in the center of the terrain for shelter. This is where all of the herd members sleep. They only cave that's off limits is" I paused once again as the thunder let out a deafening roar followed by a few cracks of lightning." The first cave. However the other mares also have their favorite caves so just look for inhabitants before you enter. Oh, and the bats will not hurt you they are our allies. Yes I know it was odd to have bats as your spies but at least they didn't threaten your herd like wolves and they could fly into any terra unnoticed for who would be wary of a bat?

As another crash of thunder filled the air I looked towards the sky. It had been a deep blue a mere few minutes ago but was now a dark black. I couldn't wait for the arrival of the storm. I shifted my weight I was not very passante. Glancing to Cocaine, I watched for her thoughts. For I knew that she knew I would be leaving later on tonight to chase the storm.

I came around to face the wench infront of me as she lamely swatted her cord, missing my pelt by centimetres. My optics glowed with hatred, and power, and when she spoke to me, i couldn't help the evil cackle that escaped my lips. "I'd watch your mouth if i were you sweetheart." I snapped back, again, clacking ivories, this time, latching onto her creamy neck, hoping to draw blood. How fantastic it would look to see crimson clashing with her 'oh so perfect' coat colour. I just simply couldn't have mares in my home that looked perfect, each would need a sign on their frames to show they fought. I simply glared at the mare infront of me, and gave a loud snort, licking at my maw, wanting to see ehr reaction. Would she attack back? It would be very unwise...did she not know i was daddy's little angel? I smirked, and turned my head slowly to the left as i heard approching hooves and my father himself entered our littl conversation.

I stepped back, allowing him to come close to his new mare, i would always respect him. Yet the filthy wanring look he gave me was ignored, and as a reply, i half reared, my hooves landing neatly on his dappled back, my fangs sunk deep into his mane and i tugged hard, before allowing my slender arabian frame to slide down his spine and land on the sodden earth.

I gave him a sly smile, showing him i was happy to see him "A fine piece of meat you've caught, father." I said, simply, my tone came out in a snake like way and i glanced back at her. The smirk still visable on my skull. "Ah so Sohalia; ready for battle? Time is running out; and soon, we will kil." I smirked at her, and darted elegantly to my fathers side, giving him a nip of affection.

So she wanted she show who was boss, eh? This shall be fun. I was very laid back and easy going, most of the time. But I didn't let no one touch me and get away with it. That went for mare, stallion or youth that dare touch me. Why did she think that I didn't have no scars upon my flesh, no dare to. Inplus this little princess was raised here with her family and never really got out to see what lurked in the darkness besides this land. Which I have, I knew the things that lurked out and how to handle them and showing your bad ass side all the time wasn't one thing I did. But oh dear, I did have one.

I watched her blood bay carcass comes to a halt before me. My eardrums catches the words that she spoke toward me. I'd watch your mouth if i were you sweetheart. Then her neck extend her fangs latched on to my neck like a blood sucker. A tingle feel shot upwards toward my brain cells while it told that Ive been bitten. I could feel the red poison lurk out of my flesh and down my cremello pelt and onto my chest like a tiny river. The red poison mix as it turn my long tangle tassels the same tint as the blood. So the mare did feel froggy and she did leap.

Before I could make any reaction told the blood bay wench I heard another talons hitting upon the earth while they stepped forth. My lanterns notice that it was Yarraman come forth toward the both of us. My lanterns leaves the wench and moves toward the dapple sliver stallion while he came to a halt. I notice the warning smirk that he gave toward the minx, but she seem to pay no mind. Then I notice the words that was spoken toward me while he began to speak. Sohalia this is my daughter, heiress to this terra, Cocaine. So she was only a heiress and acting like this. Indeed I knew that she held some power, but she was showing it in a wrong way that would cause her to get her ass beat. Then I felt the touch of Yarraman warmth upon my flesh while he welcome me. I extended my neck out while I nudged his nose with mine and blew my warm breath onto his flesh. My sentinels then lends forth while I listen to his words that he spoke of about the storm, the land, the caves and the bats. My cerebrum nodded as to let him know that I understood what he was saying.

Sentinels flickers while I still listen to the sounds while I began to get use to my new home. My icy lanterns still upon Yarraman while I glared into his navy ones. The my words began to lurk out toward him as I began to speak to him. Thank You Yarraman for letting me know these things. They will come in much use for me. I'm also not afraid of a bat. My words was spoke in a normal tone toward him. My nares flares while I took in his scent into my brain cells to remember later on. Then I began to speak once more toward him. How many call this place home.

Then my lanterns moves toward then wench called Cocaine. While I notice how she bounced around upon her father like a little girl that didn't do nothing wrong. But I wasn't going to fall for any of that. While she began to put on the sweet action infront of him, but this I wasn't going to let that go. I wasn't afraid. I let my mug open while I began to speak toward her, What do I need to watch my mouth for dear? I don't think its going anywhere. I let out a slight smirk toward her. Then I bowed my neck while I began to lick the red poison off my chest. The tasted filled my taste buds, as my mouth began to water. Then I let my pink tongue roll upon my upper lips, the I began to let my voice speak out toward her once more. I hope that your glad that you caused blood upon me, because it comes with a price. This was in my way to tell her, that I wasn't going to let this go and pay back would be when she least expected it. If Yarraman had a problem with it, the only thing I could say was sorry, he should had a better hand on his child. I also notice her words toward me, ready for battle? Time is running out; and soon, we will kill. I let out a smirk toward the mare, so we might have something in common after all. My mug open once more while I began to speak toward her Indeed dear, I am, I love causing pain upon others. Then my lanterns look toward Yarraman once more, while my voice began to speak toward him. Thats if you would like my to join in it. I would love to.

As the wind started to pick up a shiver of excitement ran through my pillars. They wanted to run. Wanted to catch the storm and race it for as long as they could. But I made them stay still, this was my life style now the life of being a ruler. And if I missed the storm so be it. I had already made my choice. Raising my head to the sky I allowed the wind to flow through my mane, the power of it caused my eyes to sting. But I loved it. The sound of my bay fillies movements, brought my sights back to the two mares. I watched as she latched on to Sohalia's pearly white coat. Now my daughter had not made a good. Move not a good one at all.

Stepping from my position I moved quickly towards Cocaine and nipped at her shoulder. It would draw blood, but wouldn't cause any serious pain. It was a warning I was putting her in her place. A low grunt came from my chest, and it was a deep domineering one. I would not have her lashing out at mares that I brought into my territory. I had spoiled Cocaine but now that she was nearing her third year she needed to stop acting like daddy's little girl. For she wouldn't be getting away with anything now. She like the rest of the herd would have to face the consequences. I listened to my daughter has her snake like lyrics flowed to my upright thorns. However, like she ignored my look of warning I ignored her friendly smirk. "You better take my warning loos when they are given Cocaine. For soon you wont be warned. Yes she is a fine mare but she is mine not yours. Nor is she a toy. Understood." Yes I was fully aware that I was speaking to her like she was a foal. But of the shoe fits. And I sure as hell had no problem putting others in their place, especially my own daughter. Cocaine would have to start acting like a respective herd member now that I had built up the herd; and there was only one way to learn how. The hard way. I ignored Cocaine's affectionate nip, although I wanted to give it back it was time I stopped spoiling her.

I took in the sweet scent of Sohalia's breath. It was the perfect combination of evil, understanding, cuningness, death and so many other things that made her all the more tempting. I already knew that this pearly white mare would hold a high position in my herd. It would be a waste if she was just left to be a common mare. And image the destruction she could do; for she inevitably would be bored. Then there was her lyrics. So calm and yet they held so much power, kind of like mine and I loved it. I nodded to her first statement and laughed slightly as she finished speaking. It was true I couldn't even picture this wench being at all offended by the vampires. "Well besides us three there are three other mares. Adelina, Iodine, Twisted Insanity and a yearling stallion Radon" I knew that the herd was small and that I needed some more mares and possibly even some stallions to use as warriors. After all we where heading for a war.

Now it was my time to sit back and watch Cocaine be put in her place by the mare. I knew that my daughter would have a rebuttal to everything that Sohalia and vice versa. This could go on for ever. But I wouldn't interfere the white mare had a right to defend herself however if my daughter took herself to far I would have to punish her.

Deep blue orbs watched the white mare's light colored ones as she licked her wound. The fire that passed through her eyes was in thrilling. She was thirsty now, but not for water. This wench like most darks was thirsty for blood. My harks pricked forward as Cocaine challenged Sohalia to a battle. What a more perfect way to be introduced to Taunting Marshes then battling with the heiress of the lands? The only thing I could think of was battling with me, the king, but Sophie had already completed that task. As the new herd member spoke my auds swiveled in her direction. I was not surprised by her response in fact I had expected nothing less. "You are free to battle with my daughter Sohalia. But I do not want any serious ingurys done to ethier of you" My glance looked twords the bay filly. And gave her yet again another warrning look. She knew that we couldn't afford wasting time on nedless injurys. But I knew how blood thirsty my princess was.

I stood next to my father as he introduced me to sohalia hmm, she had a good name that obviously meant something. I glanced at my father, then back over to the mare; i take it she had a rather short temper. I smirked and gave a short soft snort toward her. "don't be cheeky, Sohalia." I snapped, and flicked my whipcord sharply. Even if my father was here, i wouldn't soften my actions towards her unless she did do herself. When she spoke again; i scoffed slightly, that sly smirk still visable on my mug. "Bite me.." I hissed at her; i wanted to know she could obay orders, i wanted to see her attack me; this way only, would she gain my respect. I had to know she could fight; for i didn't want my fathers herd falling down in this battle.

As i felt blood stream from my shoulder, given from my father, i snorted at him and slapped my audits back for a few seconds, before perking them forward once more towards the mare. I listened to his words, but merely shrugged them off. "Don't you ever tell me i won't be wanted father." I hissed at him. Now i was angry, my eyes began to fill with tears, but i blinked them back. My mother had said that to me, just once, but it hurt; to know in their eyes, i was nothing. Nothing but a runt. I hadn't had the best upbringing, i hadn't been learnt anything from my parents, they left me to do everything by myself, and that hurt, hurt real bad.

My sad, cold optics traced my fathers outline, then i locked onto his eyes, never before had i felt like this, never had i felt angered by sadness in my soul. "It's your fault i'm like this you know. My mother wouldn't be happy, she'd of murdered you." I winced when i spoke of the word. murdered it was always something i wanted to do, but now, things were different, my mother had been brutally murdered by the bastard of Black Lake, and i had been a captured slave, why wasn't my father there to rescue me? Did he really mean it? Was i not wanted; was i a mistake?

I turned on the mare; she could probly sense the mood change; but she didn't know, she didn't know anything about me, my father or our past. What she did now could cost her her life. If she said or mentions anything about my past or upbringing, or dead mother, i didn't think i;d be able to stop myself, ever. When my father spoke, giving Sohalia permission to fight me; i half-reared, a distressed squeal coming from my blood stained lips. How dare he put me in for a battle?! Could he not do it himself; or was he really trying to rid himself of me; prehaps i should do him the favour. But did he really kknow what i was going through? I was pregnant, with Riku's child; forced to breed with the murderer of my mother. Why was he like this? He was normal when we were alone; but now, the herd was growing and he showed my no affection; i wanted him back, he was the only one i had left now. But he didn't sense my sadness, would he ever?

I listen to the storm still rumbling in the distance threating to leave the land forever. My lanterns moves to Yarraman while I watched his actions. I could tell that he wanted to runaway with the storm, chase it down and become one with the force. But he stayed behind, which was in his job duties that he applied for. I watched his actions with his daughter. His firm nip upon her while he put her in her place. I thought that she looked old enough to find her own herd. But I wasn't sure her age. I just sat back and took everything in like a song. I then listen to the words that Yarraman spoke toward his daughter. Yes she is a fine mare but she is mine not yours. Nor is she a toy. Understood. I let a smirk form upon my mug. If Cocaine thought I was going to be a toy for her to play with. This mare better wake up, I was alot more than a toy, nor would I be treated like one. I wasn't hers, I wasn't Yarramans, I was nobody's. No one owned me, but myself. Yes I could stay here and live with Yarraman, but that doesn't mean he owns me. I hope that he don't get the wrong idea either.

I watched Yarraman nod after my words that I wasn't afraid of a bat. Then a chuckle escape his chest, then he began to speak about the rest of the herd members. I listen carefully to there names as he spoke. Indeed the herd was small. Which I thought the small ones did better than the bigger ones. You don't have as many problems. But I knew that we was soon going to be going into war, I could sense it in the air. Then I heard his words once more broke the air while he spoke toward the both of us. I was more than welcome to fight his know it all daughter. With this I let a smirk form upon my mug while I let my words lurk out toward her. The choice is yours dear, do you want to waste my time fighting you? I knew that this mare wanted me to prove myself toward her. But I had nothing to prove to her and nor would I.

I then listen to the words that Cocaine spoke toward me. don't be cheeky, Sohalia then followed with bite me. I let a chuckle lurk out toward her, as my mug began to open toward her. I can be cheeky, are you going to stop me? Oh also dear, I'm going to bite you, its just a matter of time. I took a step forth. I wasn't really into fight Yarramans daughter. But that that was her wish, to be put in place by a new mare, then that was her thing. I would hate to make his little princess look bad. But then something changed, while my copper lanterns glared at her. I could feel her mood changing. I could see the tears that began to flood her lanterns while her lids washed them away. Her words snapped at her father. Then I notice her half rear. I tossed my white cerebrum sending my white tassels into the air, while they landed upon my broa like tiny rattle snakes striking at my flesh.

Then my copper lanterns moves toward Yarraman while my mug began to speak toward him. Indeed the choice is hers. Then I began to speak once more about the herd while I paid no mind to the mare being fussy, mad because she just found out her father was making her grow up a little bit. Indeed sir, smaller the better, or so I think. I then let my lanterns moves toward the mare to see her actions. Was she willing to fight? Was she going to take her angry out on me or her father. I smirked while I watched.

The wind was moving the storm closer by the seconded and pretty soon there would be storms in Taunting Marshes. One of these storms was the natural one, which had been threatening Midnight Acres for an hour or so. The other was taking place between the two mares that stood beside me and myself. Right now however, both instances where at a calm, but as we spoke the tension rose and rose fast.

So finally the day had come that I had stopped babying my daughter. And yes perhaps it wasn't fair of me to throw it at her now but with the coming of a war and the herd becoming stronger it had to be done. My thorns pinned back as my daughter once again paid no attention to my words. Clearly I had babied her for to long. I saw the anger rise in Cocaine's eyes as well as tears. I never told you you weren't wanted Cocaine. It just time you know your place. My voice did not soften. But the look that she have me the look of being abandoned cut into me. So why was she blaming me? Was she not the one who had taken off to go gather followers. If she had wanted guidance she should have stuck around more. I would not be taking the blame for that one and there was no way in hell I would let Sophie be blamed ether.

As my daughter and I locked eyes any laid back attitude disappeared. Our orbs clashed. Hers where filled with anger and pain to the soul where mine were blank. I wanted to quickly apologize to her. To tell her that she could do what ever she wanted. But I knew that Sophie would kill me if I treated her as my little devil forever. But this bay mare would always hold a special place in my heart along side her mother. Auds pricked forward with shock. I was pissed off now. My daughter had crossed the line. Yes it is my fault your spoiled. Your mother always yelled at me for that. I stepped closer to the yearling and pawed the ground before her. Darling your mother was probably the most powerful mare I will ever come across. But she could not kill me. I saw the doubt flash through he filly's eyes. Shit. Cocaine I want you to know that you are not a mistake. You always have a place here. The fact that you doubt that means that you doubt both your mother and I. My vocals softened slightly with these words but yet they where still stern. I would have to make a point to talk to Cocaine latter, about the situation with black lake.

I had heard Sohalia speak and processed her words but I didn't give any response. However now that I had spoke to Cocaine I turned towards the ghostly figure. I saw some uneasiness in the mares orbs and I thought back to my previous words to think of what caused her change. It didn't take me long to figure out what it was. I had called her mine. I knew that there was no way any stallion even one such as myself could ever belittle this fire ball. And I knew that she would never belong to me but for the sake of what I was saying to Cocaine she did. I shot her a knowing look. To let her know that I knew she would always be in a sense free. And if she didn't pick up on it it was her own fault. I was in no mood for explaining now.

The sky above gave a deep rumble of warning. My blood surged to my legs. Dam did I want to run. But I knew that this storm would not be one that I would be chasing. For tonight I was creating a storm of my own. My thoughts were confirmed as Sohalia once again met Cocaine's taunting. This mare was making me like her more every time she spoke. I had lucked out with this white ghost she would be extremely important to this herd.

Feeling Cocaine once again shift her attitude. I knew what she was going to do before she even did it. My deep blue orbs watched her arabian frame meet the air and her squeal rang through the trees. What is the matter Cocaine. Did you not just challenge her to a fight. And now your acting as if I put you up to this. What was going on with my daughter? I had no idea. And I doubted if I ever would. Looking deep into her orbs something flashed in them. Something that I had only scene once in Sophie's eyes when she had been pregnant with Cocaine. But... Suddenly it all clicked. God why hadn't I realized before?

Stepping towards Cocaine m posture was different that it had been a few seconds before. My anger and dominance had left and where replaced with remorse and a new kind of anger. I was angry with myself for not even thinking that Riku would have forced breed Cocaine. That mother fucker. Now I wished that I had killed his queen instead of just putting her on the brink of death. Cocaine. My god. I am so sorry.... It was the first time in my life that I had ever said those words. And something inside me told me that it was to late. But I hoped that my daughter would forgive me for being such a bastard. Turning my boa towards Sohalia, I shook my head. There was no way she would battle with my daughter now. I would have to explain everything to her latter.

My mocha optics flashed a dangerous glare at Sohalia when she spoke. "sohalia i am in no fit state to fight; can't you see?" I hissed at her; clacking my fangs at her and slashing my whipcord upon my flank. Dangerous eyes stared next at my father. As our eyes met, he showed no remorse, no feeling at all. My audits snapped back into my skull and my optics narrowed to slits; i half reared slashing my forelegs through the thin air infront of me; i landed with a deep thud. Nares flared with anger. "You don't care do you?!" I screamed at him; i felt insane. This was only the second time it had happened; the first was when i was just a few months old.

I continued to glare at the dappled one infront of me; waiting for him to realise what he had done wrong, apologise; but it never came. My eyes began to fill up with tears and i backed up; keeping my dangerous look upon my father. "If you don't care; tell me now; tell me to leave, right now. I'l go." Would he tell me? Prehaps i should save him the trouble hmm?

I gave him a discusted look; and cast the same one to Sohalia, no dout she would side with him. But i didn't know if she had ever had a foal; would she know what i was going through? The look i gave her was replaced with one that screamed out for help. Would she understand me? I knew my father never would. But as i turned to go; he spoke and i spun my bodice back around. "Sorry? you think that word will make a difference? you think it will make things okay between us? How do i know your not lying father?!" I hissed, trying to hold back my tears.

My scent let loose one for female company; even though both me and Sohalia were dark; would she sought out to help me? If we really were to be family, could she bring herself to do it? right now all i wanted was to feel her agaist me; by my side, i wanted to know she would be there. I began to wince and shift my weight to take the strain off my belly. Ifelt sick and i snapped my skull around to bite hard into my own flesh on my stomach as the unborn foal moved around inside me. Again, i looked at Sohalia, would she know what to do? All of this was a first for me; i didn't want a foal, not onw, i was three years old and a war was approching, i wanted to fight and kill; not babysit.

ADELINA
FAMILY IN BLACK LAKE.

;; The rumble of thunder overhead had announced a fall thunderstorm, and quite frankly she was not one in the mood for such weather. If only she could control the weather and how it changes, she'd be alright. But from her place approuching her old homeland she began to feel slightly better, but she did not know how Yarraman would cope with Riku stealing her away along with her sister Nautical. Ade didn't mean to leave her king, no she was just in one of those moods that she had no idea what she was saying or what she might do, and frankly she was disappointed in herself for leaving such a loving king as him.

;; Her pillars were throbbing painfully as she approuched the border of Knife's Edge and Taunting Marshes, a call coming from her cavern as she stopped a few feet away from the lands. A small frown formed on her facade as she could scent her fellow captive Cocaine, should she go and meet her? She stepped forward, a curious ring in her tone as she spoke. Yarraman? Cocaine? she called softly, expanding her nares and perking her auditories.

[Sohalia]

Sohalia

I watched the angry rose between father and daughter. But I stood at my place, out of it. I then notice how Yarraman glanced at me. It was like I could read his mind. He was letting me know, while I lived here with him, I would always be free and not claimed as any prize. This made a sense of calmness run over me once again. I then spoke toward him in my own words to let him know that the message was through my thick skull. Thanks Yarraman. Then after more words was traded between the two of them. I once more notice the shaking of his skull as if he was telling me no. My voice spoke once more toward him. Indeed I understand and respect the reasons.

Then I notice Cocaine words thats me. Then I notice her looks, how they changed to more of a help me look. Indeed the young mare had dig the ditch herself and it was herself that shall be digging herself out. But then, my childhood stroke me like a rock. I had it rougher that she did, no I never had a foal to call me own. But my mother left me for died. Then another mare came to my aid and saved me life and raise me and help me through my troubled years.

My copper lanterns begins to move from Yarraman to Cocaine. I wasn't going to take sides between them. But maybe I could help them. I reached my ghostly limbs out while I began to move toward Yarraman. I moved my slender figure down his side, my flesh touching his smokey dapple flesh. Then my copper lanterns moves toward Cocaine, my look wasn't wanting to fight. I was wanting to help her. My mug extends out toward her blood bay boa while I rub it softly upon her flesh. This was letting her know that I didn't want to battle her. My voice released softly toward the both, Yarraman and Cocaine. I know that its not my place, but if you can let me, maybe there is something I can do to help. I let a slight smile lurk upon my ghostly mug, but then as fast as it came, it disappear like a thief in a night. My copper lanterns drifts back and forth to the both, while once more I began to speak. I understand where you both are coming from. I really do. Then after my words I snorted toward myself. While I quickly let my limbs carry me back where I was standing. I was out of line for a mare. I could get in trouble and this I knew. My lanterns then looks toward Yarraman, my cerebrum toward toward the earth to show respect. That wasn't my place, for a herd mare.

My cerebrum rose quickly, thorns lower to there graves. Another was stepping forth. I let a slight smirk upon my ghostly mug. This mare looked like she just came back into the lands. Was she the one that dump Yarraman and then came back wanting to be welcome back with open arms. I bit my tongue. I wanted to tell her what a useless slut she was and beat her ass. But this wasn't my place either. Only the queen she be the one to open her mouth to her. But I wasn't that so I just sat there watching the slut come crawling back like a puppy, trying to make everything alright. But truefully everything was fall from it. But would Yarraman let her come back. This I had to see. If he did, would he just let everyone walk over him? My lanterns moves to Yarraman to see what he was going to do about this mess.

Well this was certainly not what I had expected. When I had brought Sohalia home I expected that I would just give her the normal tour and lay down the rules. But of course when I expected something fate had a way to fuck me up. But on this one I couldn't blame fate I could only blame myself. How could I have been so stupid? I had messed up everything between me and Cocaine. I had thought tat she was over everything that had happened, but I couldn't have been more wrong.

My harks snapped back as I took my daughters screams. But I wasn't angry at her just pissed off at myself. I stood and took everything she through at me. The bay mare hissed and glared at me, her rage filling her body ye her orbs still held shimmering tears. Cocaine. If I didn't care or if I didn't want you here. You wouldn't be here. My vocals where calm and held sympathy. But lacked the understanding that Cocaine needed for I could never truly understand. As I watched the bay filly turn to go I stepped forward. I couldn't have her just walk away, I needed her. I knew that my daughter would always have this herds best interest, and somewhere deep down I loved her. No Cocaine I am wise enough to know that one word doesn't change what has happened. And I have never before lied to you daughter. So why would I start now? I was hurt by words. But more so b the fact that she thought I would lie to her. However, I made sure that hurt staid deep inside for right now it was about Cocaine not me.

Thorns laid back as a new scent was carried into the clearing. My anger rose, right now was not the time for the overo mare to come back and ask for forgiveness. Right now she just might be the one that I took all my frustration out on. A shiver rain through my bodice as Sohalia slithered alongside my bulk. Her touch seemed to sooth the beast inside me, the one that wanted to run with the storm. I had to admit I liked the affect she had on me. But what prompted her movement? Auds flicked in her direction as her soft voice parted from her maw. I felt her warm tone for Cocaine, clearly I had missed some sort of passing between the two. I went to speak but ceased as the opaque wench moved once again to the outskirts of the circle. Turning my head I locked orbs with Sohalia and glanced back to Cocaine. If Cocaine wants you to help then I welcome your assistance. Yes her movement was out of place. But I think all of us knew that Sohalia wouldn't be just a herd mare.

A voice interrupted the lull of silence, and with it my anger rose once again. Adelina had crossed into Taunting Marshes once again unwelcome. However, this time she would not be forced to stay heck she would be lucky if she made it out alive. I knew that the wench had travled to Black Lake and that was completely forbidden. Yes I knew that she had a sister there, but I had given her options and she chose to leave. I had warned her that she would not be welcomed back but clearly my warnings didn't mean much these days. But that would change.

Tossing my head in the air, I called for the wench to come forward. My call was deep but held no warning for she had already received hers. This was now her judgment day.

Bite me.

I almost immediatly tensed up when i felt the warm touch of sohalia's mug on my neck. I gave a soft snort, a silent word of thanks, before looking back at my father who stood before me; keeping one eye on Sohalia at all times. sure the mood had suddenly changed, but if she was anything like me, attack could encounter at any given moment. My anger began to calm as my father spoke his calm words to me, yet i still wrinkled my nose at him and looked away, ashamed. I smartly sidestepped towards Sohalia and gently bumped her body with mine; now things were different, although i knew we would always have our moments; we were family now.

Tossing my skull so my ebony forelock covered my mocha coloured optics, i stared into the distance; a shadow was lurking, i could sense it, i too, had that power to sense when an intruder was lurking or when i was being watched. I gently pawed at the frosty ground underfoot, and snorted; it was loud, and echoed throughout the realm, two great spirals of carbon were exhaled from my nares and danced around my muzzle froa few mometns, before slowly fading into nothing. "Adelina. Come!" I screeched, the sudden loud noise making a few ravens that roosted in the nearby trees to scatter and call out loudly in annoyance. I too, wanted to see and speak with this wench, how dare she betray us! And by the worst possible way at that! Again, i pawed at the earth; showing my fustration, i glanced up at my father; now we could connect, for we both knew what we had to do to the wench.
