Listening quietly for a few moments longer until the voices lapsed briefly into silence both boys tried to maneuver themselves so that they could untangle their extremities from one another. It always seemed to work out that one of them was sitting on part of the other but they couldn't move before the other. After a bit of trial and error they both managed to climb back to their feet and shake themselves off. Turning his back to his brother Aeolus took a few hesitant steps closer to where whoever was on the other side of the bushes. A small hill led up to the thick layer of shrubbery separating them with a small ditch at the bottom. Hopping over it with ease he wandered up to the bush. Ducking his head with a little hesitance in his movement he tried to peer between the branches to make out what the others looked like.

Levex after a moment figured out what he was doing and came to investigate himself pushing himself up alongside Aeolus. The quieter of the pair seemed to be a colt perhaps from what they could make out but its colours were rather odd. Maybe if they could actually see him without all the leaves and branches in the way.. Levex took a couple short steps trying to stick his head between the branches to get a better look. Twisting his small head as he pushed aside some of the smaller branches something began tickling his nose. Casting his gaze down his long face he saw that some ugly creature with wings had seemingly attached itself to his nose. A frightened squeal tore from his throat as he threw his head backwards snapping some of the thin branches in the process as his small hooves dug into the dirt. Forgetting all about his brother standing behind him he finally managed to rip himself free only to run straight into Aeolus once again sending them tumbling down the small embankment below.

Aeolus had heard his brother's squeal but before he could react Levex came tearing backwards into him. If they were on flat ground he would have likely been able to just shift out of the way but being on a hill his sidestepping failed miserably and sent him rolling down the hill his brother not far behind. Pain shot through his ankle as he landed awkwardly only to have Levex land on top of him. Groaning he could only lay there while his brother tried to right himself and move off of him. Seriously why did this have to happen to him twice in one day? Mom was going to kill them if she ever found out. Slightly dazed he allowed his head to flop to the ground before trying to move himself out of the ditch.
