Hold on tight...it's a rollercoaster ride we're on

[RosaLuna]

RosaLuna wasn't exactly sure where she was, or what she was doing, but being lost wasn't necessarily a bad thing. It was being without a purpose that got her nervous.

She trotted along the stream's edge quickly, her head up and her nostrils flared wide to catch the scents that wafted her way on the breeze. She could smell, of course, the fresh scent of running water and hear the pounding of said water in the distance...perhaps a waterfall? Her pointed ears flicked this way and that, listening for the sounds of other horses. Other than being a little alert, her posture was completely relaxed and sure of herself, her Arabian tail held up high and her neck arched gracefully.

The beautiful mare paused for a drink from the clear water, cold from snow and ice but still clear and healthy. Her hooves sank into the most recent snow as she drank, wishing instead for the feel of grass beneath her hooves. Rosa nosed the snow away and found a few shoots of grass, tearing them up before moving along the streambed towards the roaring, which was increasing in intensity. Suddenly, the trees cleared and she could see the waterfall, a beautiful sight of crystal clear water flowing rapidly down into the large stream. Beyond the waterfall was something else...she couldn't quite say what it was, but she wanted to find out.

Venturing around the edge of the pool that gathered at the base of the waterfall, she soon found herself behind it and looking at a few caves. Well, night was falling...it was better than sleeping outside in full view of predators. RosaLuna took a quick walk-through of the caves and found them secure, no signs of predators ever having been there and completely empty. She decided she would stay here for the night, if only to stay out of the foul weather she scent coming from the west.

The Sexy One Has Now Arrived

My galloping hooves could be heard as I advanced deeper into Dream Falls. I spotted a mare and my mood was the ever so famous, Flirty. I looked at her and I smiled. I walked over to her and let out a nicker. I looked at her and I could tell that she thought she is very sexy, That's no lie. I looked her up and down before I decided that I liked her. My sexy voice filled the air. "What's a sexy mare like you doing all alone? Do you want some company? The name is Cory by the way" I said to her. I smiled at her and I winked. 'It's time to turn the charm on' I thought as I waited for her to answer me. I got a little closer to her as I stood beside her. I looked up at the sun and it looked back at me. I smiled at it and turned my attention back to the mare. I hoped she didn't mind my flirting but then again, Many mares love to flirt, Right?

[RosaLuna]

RosaLuna certainly had no such notion! She did not think she was 'sexy', that was a vulgar term applied to harlots and mares with no self-respect. No, she knew she was pretty, a good catch for any stallion, and she knew she was manipulative. Not 'sexy'.

She heard the stallion before she saw him and studied him as he came through the falls, her eyes narrowing for a moment before her expression turned pleasant and endearing. Her ears pricked forward as the stallion whinnied and she waited for him to come to her. She smiled back and tried to appear innocent, although there was that gleam in her eye again. RosaLuna laughed prettily as he called her sexy, shaking her head at the amusement he had brought her with his statement. "Sexy? Darling, that is a vulgar term and I'd please you to not use it to describe me again," she responded silkily, the words rolling off her tongue easily. So he wanted to play, eh? This was just her kind of game.

"RosaLuna, but you can call me Rosa," she said, not even bothering to answer his question about if she wanted company or not. It was clear to her that even if she didn't want company, he would still provide her with some. Still, he appeared to be the average stallion with just a little brain driven by hormones and the sight of pretty mares. His charm was perhaps a little more sophisticated than some other stallions she had encountered, but she could easily outsmart him and have him play right into her hooves. Teasingly, she moved away towards the back of the cave. "It's going to rain soon," she told him, gesturing with her head to the clouds that could be seen outside the entrance to the cave. "Unless you want to get drenched, you'd better come inside."

CHAOS

You could spill a thousand words
and none would mean a thing.

Dark red frame moved silently through the lands. Harks gently pressed upon my skull; big, black opticals wide and alert. Arabian frame was carried in a perfect manner. Tail slightly kinked, neck arched so ocassionally, my chin bumped my broad chest. Nostrils expanded and inhaled the thin air; taking in the many scents; but the one that powered over them all was death. Yes; hours earlier i had killed a mare. She went by the name of Nevaeh and was a slave in my lands five years ago.

A sly smirk came across my jaw line on thinking about it; the sound of her cries as my forehooves pounded onto her fragile body; the screams of the small filly; our daughter, as she watched her dearest mother die. Yes; there was an evil, twisted and almost insane killer on the loose.

I inhaled a big pocket of air; catching the nearby scent of a stallion first, followed by a mare. My smirk widened and i picked up pace, moving at a silent three-beat pace across the 'Dream Falls' a place i hadn't visited since my younger days; no, now; as my eldest son ruled the darkest herd known on Midnight Acres; equines went to him, not the other way around. But seriously; what harm would it do to fetch a pretty lady back to the hell hole i called my home? None.

Minutes seemed to fly by as i crossed the border into the lands, the scent of the stallion and mare growing stronger by the second. Pace slowed to a two-beat trot, picking my legs up high, that natural grace a purebred arabian held was so obvious in me. The two came into sight; first, optics landed on the mare, i let my gaze slide over her delicate frame, an arabian, like myself; as words were parted from the other brute; my gaze was quickly snappedto him and harks pressed further bnack into my skull.

I walked forward; caracass still held the strong scent of death; everything about me gave confidence and evil. Yes, i was the great Chaos. "Such fools roam the lands today." I hissed at the stallion; raising my neck to an arkward angle and clamping my ivories together, a loud 'clack' could be heard. One hark remained pricked on the mare; an interesting character, by the way she spoke with intelligence to the idiotic brute. "I, Rosaluna; am Chaos, great king of the darklands, Hollow Woods."[/b] I stated, with a clear voice; deep, musky, very stallion-like. One could tell i was twisted by the way my vocals carried out to the mare.

[RosaLuna]

RosaLuna this time scented the other stallion before she saw him. It was a strong, unpleasant stench...salty with a tinge of iron. Blood. She knew before she saw him that this was a dark horse approaching and she would do well to be wary. Of course, she wasn't worried. Her intelligence had never failed her before and shouldn't now. She could manipulate these two into a fight, or to leave her alone if things got too bad.

She smiled easily as Chaos spoke to Cory, clearly insulting him. Apparently she wouldn't need to provoke a fight. She might need to prevent one. "Ah, but where would we be without the fools to walk themselves to the slaughter while the rest of us sit back and watch? Such a dull place it would be without such fools," she said silkily to Chaos, the words sliding off her tongue quite easily. "Chaos," she repeated his name to herself, wondering where she'd heard that name before.

Then, she remembered. Chaos had quite the reputation as an evil horse of the most epic proportions. RosaLuna would be wise to step carefully around this one, but she wasn't sure yet if she would want to be around him for too long. Perhaps a quick conversation and then be off? Or should she let him claim her, even though she was neutral, and perhaps gain his trust or a high position. Well, she'd let things play out as they would for now.

"Such a...strong name, don't you think, Cory?" she continued, passing by Chaos teasingly as she went to the more open area of the cave.

His Pissed, Run For The Hills!

I snarled at the stallion as he talked to her. I laughed at her words. A strong name? More like a name that meant confusion. It wasn't a strong name at all, Just a name for a stallion that caused a lot of confusion. I spoke sharply, My voice was clearly giving off hints about my newest mood, Mad and clearly pissed off.

"Please Rosa, That name couldn't be strong. That name means confusion and any stallion named that is well, Annoying and just loves to start conflicts" I said to her, Ignoring the stallion as I talked about his name being really annoying and totally not strong. I talked again, Watching my tongue but then again I could have a lot of fun fighting with this stallion, Acting like the badass he's not.

"Fools are the ones that keep life fun or entertaining. They can also be wise, Wiser than that stallion right there. All he wants to do is breed with mares and murder other horses" I said, Looking at the stallion in total disgust. He made me want to just kill him now and send him right off to hell but if he was lucky than he would be accepted into heaven, But the chances of him going to heaven were slim.

RAGE

I walked into Dream Falls. The last time I was here it had been to get Asthela and return to Zarian. Then I was exiled than, embarrassed among Midnight Acres. I didn’t care if Asthela knew that I was here. I was planning on asking her if she wanted to stay or leave.

I was rather pissed but I didn’t want to show it in this female giving place. He walked forward, keeping his neck to the side, his uninjured side. He didn’t like the fact that the brute Zarian had grabbed ahold of his mane as if he were nothing and proceeded to shake him like a rag doll. A blinding pain shot through his skull. Another damned migraine, another side affect of his fight with Zarian.

I saw a small crowd up ahead. I stepped forward lightly, I was meant for sneaking just killing. I stepped forward until I was in front of them. I looked around, a mare, a stallion, and….. CHAOS!!!!!! He snorted and backed up. Chaos was here.

“Chaos, I thought you never ventured out of Hollowed Woods,” his words held worry, the stallion wanted him dead.

His panic was enough to make him forget his migraine. Chaos being here wasn’t a good sign. My grey frame continued to back up until I hit a tree. I was just here for a mare, not a fight with Chaos. I lowered myself onto one knee in a mock gesture of respect.

I didn’t do this often. I never showed a fool of myself, not since Zarian. I didn’t like being bonded to a Master. I remembered the anger in Zarian’s eyes as he charged me and caused me to flip onto my left side. I still had bruises from the experience.

I looked at Chaos again. Was he going to kill him? No, he didn’t think Chaos would attack him in front of mare. He held his place up against the tree. He wasn’t going to be knocked over again.

Then a thought went through his skull. What if the other stallion helped Chaos? Than he would be mega screwed. He tightened up his forelegs and shook his head, the damned habit. He looked to them both for either signs of movement, nothing yet.

You could spill a thousand words
and none would mean a thing.

It was the mare that spoke first; one hark pricked on catching her intelligent words, the other still pressed firmly against my skull; showing my disproval of the worthless runt standing infront of me. Head tilted slightly to the bay mare, looking at her frame, her posture; parting my blood stained muzzle to speak, the same tone as before, calm, yet twisted. "You speak words of true wisdom; mare. Fools shall be fools, but only fools themselves would run into such a trap such as myself.." I told her, the corner of my lip twisting into a curl, in sheer amusement of what the stallion spat back at the mare. "I shall cause chaos to your life if one more word is said; brute." I hissed at him; extending my neck out towards him and clamping my jaw shut firmly; sidestepping around the mare so i stood close to her.

Reaching to the right; i placed a firm nip on the shoulder of Rosaluna; shaking my skull, trying to keep my calm, i could see a fight brewing; did he think he would be making a name for himself fighting the dakrest of them all? I gave a small snigger, but when his words were spilled once more my mood quickly changed sour. Curling myself around the mare in a 'protective' way, i spat words out at the bastard. "You would be wise to avoid such accusations.." Grinding my teeth through closed jaws.

Stepping back, i continued the whole 'this mare is mine, touch her and die' act. Already, i had taken a liking to her, she stayed calm in the tense situation, something Hollow Woods needed as the war would begin soon. Nostrils exhaled a snort of carbon, and on the inhale, harks snapped back and my forefeet left the ground by a few inches; tucking my muscular neck into my chest, i pivotted around on my hinds, staring directly into the eyes of 'Rage' the idiotic brute that had once attacked a resident of Hollow Woods, my female warrior, Anntho.

At the idiots words; a snarl came from my lips. "You thought wrong, bastard. Unlucky day you picked to venture, no?" I hissed at him, my mood changing rapidly; anger flashing with furious glints of silver, as my optics caught the suns rays. Then he went down. Rage bent forward, a discusted snort came from my nostrils and i lunged forward, forefeet either side of the stallions head, my skull came down fast, jaws opening, in a hope to latch onto the bowing stallions poll. With a low hiss, i pulled away, clacking my teeth at the brute. "What makes you think you can show your face Rage." I snarled, my words rolling off my blood red tounge, sliced with venom.

I backed back to my 'spot' next to Rosaluna, waiting for both hers and 'Corys' responses, i allowed my glance to lurk over the bay mare, opening my jaw to speak with her. "Will you be coming back to Hollow Woods with me, Rosaluna? I dare say Intrepid, my son will be pleased with your presence." I told her, words slightly 'tenser' than before due to the sudden rise in my blood pressure. "Or would you care to see a small fight between me and the idiot..perhaps we could stay and play a little while longer."[/color] I added; throwing my head in Rage's direction, completely ignoring the quiet, Cory. Perhaps he would be a little pissed I had 'advanced' onto the mare, pushing him out. Who knew, i'd take her.

Take Your Pick!

I growled at Chaos and I looked at Rosa. I looked over and another stallion was coming into sight. When Chaos attacked him, I wanted to just kill Chaos. I snarled in disgust as he attacked Rage. I opened my muzzle and my sharp words flowed out like a river.

"Rosa, Do you really want to go with a manwhore or someone with more class and someone who isn't as dark as Chaos to kill a poor mare right in front of her foal? You should chose wisely" I said to her. I spat when I said his name. I stepped closer to Rosa, to try and protect her from the thing that was trying to claim her. I looked at Rage and I could tell by his face that he was worried. I was guessing that he was afraid of Chaos, Who wouldn't be he's acting like he's the god, Zeus. I snorted in disgust when Chaos curled around Rosa, Trying to protect her. I let out a chuckle when he did that, He looked like he was desperate when he has more mares than anyone on Midnight Acres.

"Now Rosa, I wouldn't mind claiming you but I need to know if you like that bastard over there, Chaos" I said to her, Hoping she would come to her senses and come with me instead of Chaos, He would make her life a living pit of hell! Plus I loved her so much that I just couldn't let that happen. I imprinted with her but I had a feeling deep in my heart that she likes Chaos more than me, But that wouldn't stop me from trying to get what I want the most, Her. I flashed her a sexy smile and when she wasn't looking I bared my teeth at Chaos and bucked the air behind me. I looked into her pretty eyes with my own dark brown eyes. I didn't smile with my muzzle but with my eyes. I looked at Rage and I felt a little bad for him. He didn't have to be scared of Chaos if he could round up a few stallions and then they could attack him and try to kill him. I would definitely join him in that group. I would just love to kick Chaos off his high pedestal.

His Sinned Name;; Cory
The Angry Words He Spoke;; 450
All The Complements;; He is getting super pissed off at Chaos and would just love to kill him since Chaos is getting way too close to Rosa and he just adores her so he would do anything to protect her. He imprinted with her meaning he fell in love with when her first saw her.

[RosaLuna]

If Rosa could, she would have preened, just like a bird. Two stallions in one place almost fighting for her attention? Why, she couldn't have been enjoying herself more unless there were three stallions trying to claim her...she might just get her wish.

Her ears flicked forward to catch Chaos' words, not completely enraptured by him but interested. Curious, if you will. She was curious about all stallions, though, surely, and this one seemed like he could be quite the dark one. Rosa's gaze went back and forth between Cory and Chaos even as the darker horse nipped her gently on the neck and curled himself around her almost protectively. It was clear who was the kinder and gentler stallion here, Cory, but RosaLuna couldn't help but like Chaos. Of course, not romantically for the moment, he just seemed to be stronger. Perhaps Cory would be safer, but then again he might just also be duller. RosaLuna didn't like dull, she liked excitement.

Ah, look, a third stallion. It really was her lucky day, wasn't it?

She watched impassively as Chaos lunged forward and down at the bowing stallion, who obviously didn't want a fight. Yet, here he was, exposing his neck to a dangerous stallion. A small smile flickered over her maw at Cory's reaction. He was cute, but seemed a little...weak? Maybe later she'd be in the mood for cute and weak. Now she was liking the scary and strong. If he fought for her, that could sway her decision of course, but he didn't seem like the type.

"Ah, so I have to choose, is that it?" she said smoothly as both Cory and Chaos expressed that they clearly wanted to claim her. Her gaze slid over both of them and briefly over Rage, a smirk on her pretty face. She practically glided around the two of them, stepping high and carefully, nibbling each of them playfully. "Mmhmm, darling, you're adorable, but I like a stallion with a little more backbone," Rosa said to Cory, blowing gently on his nose. Of course, she had no idea about the imprinting thing, and couldn't see how much he cared for her after only knowing her for a few moments. That could make for interesting situations later on.

She came up close to Chaos, smelling the scent of blood on him and wondering if she wanted to cause trouble. Clearly, she was in a position to do so, but she had to decide whether it was worth it or not. "Maybe another time, another place," she finally decided, glancing back at Cory. Perhaps he could sway her decision...

He's Got The Swagger Of A Champion

The way she spoke to Chaos and me telling us that she wasn't that interested in us made me feel angry but weird at the same time. I saw her talk to Chaos then look back at me. She looked like she was making up her mind, Deciding to either chose Rage or me and Chaos. I looked at her and smiled. She wanted backbone huh? Well I could give her the backbone if Chaos were to try and sway her decision. He would have to get a hoof to the ass if he even tried that. I laughed at my comment and I spoke to Rosa.

"Well, I see that you don't want the bastard. Nice job, you can see that he's nothing but a fake and a total ass" I said to her, Glancing at chaos quickly then turning my attention back to Rosa. I smiled at her then I smirked at Chaos. I was just having so much fun playing with Chaos and getting him pissed off. I don't think he would attack me in front of a mare like Rosa but then again he attacked Rage. I would have to watch myself if I wanted to show Rosa that I have a backbone. It's a big backbone too.

His Sinned Name;; Cory
The Angry Words He Spoke;; 236
All The Complements;; He's trying to show Rosa that he has a backbone. Hope you like the post!

[eclipsemidir]

Had it been truly foolish to come here? I thought not but the brute standing in front of me thought so. My migraine began to fade and I could think clearly. I looked at Chaos and a whimsical smile spread across my face. I continued to smile at him as I spoke my words carefully, ensuring no signs of disrespect or anger.

“Chaos, former lord of Hollowed Woods, you ask what why I come here when you yourself is here. I believe you have… several mates. One including Anntho. Also, last time I checked, you don’t own Midnight Acres, Black does. Black is my ally and your friend. So I believe I can go anyway I want as long as I stay away from Intrepid’s land,” I put a lot of emphasis on Intrepid.

My words were braver than I was. I always feared Chaos but now I was calm. I watched as the mare spoke to the one brute and went to Chaos. I tightened up, anger erupting with in me. A low growl escaped my throat. I wasn’t sure what to do.

and none would mean a thing.

My attention soon snapped to Cory, harks gently pressed back into my skull; lip curled in an amused smirk at the bay brute who was hurtling insults at me like there was no tomorrow. I shook my skull; allowing dark red tassles to draw iver my cold stoned optics. hiding the future threat i held against him. "Really, Cory. You ought to watch that mouth of yours. It could lead you into some trouble one day in the future..." I chuckled, swinging my body sideways so i didn't face the bay; instead, my attention was switched between Rosaluna, the bay mare, and Rage, the pathetic idiotic one. One hark twisted around to catch the mares words. "so i have to choose" I gave a loud snort, one way or another, i would have her in my grasp, if she chose to go with the bay stallion, perhaps i would leave it for a while, then pop up and breed with her out of spite? That was, of course if she still wished to stay with Cory, otherwise, if she was happy to leave him, i'd take her with me.

At the wenchs words, my smirk grew bigger, ah so there would be some action further down the line...something to look forward to. Again, the bay stallion shot at me with insults, and finally, my audits got sick of his tones; slapping them back, i half-reared, twisting my frame around in the air and extending up to full height, positioning my body perfectly and allowing my weight to tip forward, hoping to land my forehooves in the small of his back. It wasn't a 'proper' attack, just one to let him know i'd be on his tail, one to say 'shut the hell up' With an angry snort, i turned around to face rage; a discusted growl coming from the pit of my stomach. "One can never have to many herd members, fool." i hissed at him when he spoke, allowing my frame to pounce forward to latch my blood thirsty fangs onto her shoulder. "The land f Midnight acres is owned by no one, Rage. Black is simply an excuse. He is offspring of dio; not Dio himself. Black cannot do what he wants, he has no more power than the others here." I confronted the bastard; clamping ivories shut close to him face. "It seems the deal is sealed then, right? Rage, i'l meet you at the battlegrounds at dusk. Rosaluna and Cory, you both know where to find me; however, i think you'll find i might find you, first." I snarled through gritted teeth; sidestepping around in a 'prance' so i was facing the way i wanted to go; hanging around to wait for any last comments, before i set off to the battlegrounds to seal the deal with the grey sucker.

[RosaLuna]

RosaLuna never said she wasn't interested in Chaos. In fact, it was quite the opposite. Cory was cute, but in a young kid kind of way that didn't totally appeal to her. Chaos was strong, plus easily manipulated and could be used for her own purposes. Which she always loved. Besides watching stallions bicker over her, manipulating was one of her favorite past times.

Rosa smirked as Rage tried to tell Chaos off without provoking him. That wasn't working out so well. Chaos was clearly an easily provoked horse, even when it was clear the other stallion didn't want a fight. Everything was getting a little misconstrued now, especially her intent. She looked at Cory, who Chaos was not taking seriously at all, and would have raised a brow if she could.

"I never said I wasn't interested in Chaos, Cory? Where in the world would you get that idea?" she said innocently, hardly paying attention to the angry comments between Rage and Chaos. They were talking about herds, most of which she had no knowledge of, but she intended to learn all about them. Then she turned her head towards Chaos, who was in the process of declaring a duel between him and Rage. Obviously, there were some past feelings under the surface between those two, for it would make no sense that Chaos would fight a horse without some sort of reason, and Rage had given him none in the past few minutes.

With a flick of her tail, she trotted up behind Chaos and passed him at a slower pace, flicking him teasingly with her tail on the nose. "Who said I was going with Cory? I can make my own decision about who I believe is the more /capable/ stallion," Rosa spoke over her shoulder with a grin upon her maw. The devilish flirt who was half light, half dark, had made one more move towards the dark side. Yet her next move could bring her back to the more light side, who knows?
