Biru

Annabelle was adamant about their participation in this event. Ever since winning some feathers from adoring fans, she seems to think that she’s the boss now. She trots around, Rei’s feather tied tightly into her antlers, and waits for Biru’s decision. It’s the least she can do, considering in every other aspect of their relationship, Anna was large and in charge.

Biru, finally setting upon an idea, grinned. He began work on prepping himself, making sure his thoughts were guarded from his nosy companion. Upon his back, he fastened a green, loose fitting vest. It hugged the front half of his body, gripping around him like a real shirt, with two holes for his front legs to fit through. Finally getting the idea, Anna went to a nearby pine and broke off a branch. The sap oozed from the broken end, and she moved in front of Biru, pressing the sap onto the seam on his chest. After a few moments, it solidified, and allowed the vest to fit firmly. Next, he headed over to the snowberry bush. Carefully picking up the red berries, he squished them against his lips, until a cruel grin was etched upon his dark skin. Yet, he still was not finished. Annabelle, having cud in her mouth, reached for Biru’s mane. He would need his green hair! As Biru lowered his head, he admitted to her he was more than a little sickened. After a few moments however, his mane was a dingy green. Pulling away, and looking at Biru, Annabelle smiled and trotted about. It was her turn to get dressed up now!

The Joker is not complete without Poison Ivy! Wasting no time the persistent fawn began to roll herself in red clay. From the top of her head, down her neck she was covered in red. Next, she had Biru apply the same green goop to her back. Reluctantly, he obliged, only because he appreciated seeing her so happy. Soon enough, the dark fawn was covered in green from the bottom of her neck, all over the rest of her body. Though Annabelle was still not satisfied. She fashioned herself a green cape, which slowly melted into red, and fit it around her body. It encircled her neck and hung all the way down to her hooves on both sides! Biru could only roll his eyes as she fawned over herself in the reflection of the water.

The fawning did not last, as Annabelle was much to eager to wait. She bounded around Biru, herding him towards the spot where they were meant to be. The sun was high in the sky by now, but luckily, no precipitation would be coming to ruin their fight. Annabelle was so eager because this time was her time to shine. This would be the first fight where Biru would allow Annabelle to participate; and on one condition; that she uses her powers so she can learn to harness them. She was still young, so her powers would no doubt be shaky.

A few more moments travel, and they see now what the battle will look like. A vast, grassy meadow is sprawled out before them. It would be the time to take a nap, but there was something keeping them from that; their opponent. He is a unicorn, and the same glossy black that Biru is. Upon his head he is adorned with a large horn that splits off. He would no doubt be a worth opponent. He shot a look to Annabelle, who had now rounded him and was standing on Biru’s left side. A determined look crossed her face, and she looked forward, as if saying; “lets do this”.

Annabelle had the first attack in this, using her dark mist. She attempted to summon it around his feet, so that for a moment, he would experience a brief moment of confusion. That is when Biru took off. He ran forward, lowered his head, his horn flashing violently in the strong light. Biru was aiming to impale the neck of Vale. If all went well, Joker and Ivy could walk away as quickly as they came, and unharmed. Somehow, both doubted that would happen.
