quote quote quote
The darkness was the perfect time to hunt, the perfect time to have time to himself. Carefully the panther, after letting his bonded know where he was going or course, slipped away from the Falls. He needed somewhere quiet to hunt. The meadow was perfect. He had seen this place in his beloved bonded's mind so many time. Often it was when she thought of her love Breeze. Either way, it was to this meadow the panther was going to hunt. However tonight his plans were quickly changed. As he entered, the smell and sounds of a fight hit his senses. Something was not right here. Quickly the panther headed for the sound, but was to late. By the time he arrived, all involved seemed to be gone. It was only his keen sense of smell that told him otherwise. Quickly he called for Kiara through their bond. Something has happened. I am okay, but need you.. He could hear the sobbing from nearby, it sounded like a child. He followed the sound, while reporting what he was hearing to Kiara. The roan meanwhile looked on, watching her own young as they slept. Another child needed her, and as Earth Medic she could not turn away. Even if it meant leaving her own young safe within the Falls. Quickly she responded, trotting at first until she was far enough away that she though the sound of her hooves would not wake anyone. Then she burst into a gallop, quickly covering the distance between the Falls to her bonded. He was hanging back, watching the child from a slight distance so he did not scare her. The poor dear. I wonder what happened to her mother... Slowly Kiara moved forward, nickering softly to let the little black and white filly know she was there. "It's alright little one, I will not harm you. Are you hungry?" Kiara kept her voice soft as she moved closer. "I know I am not your mother, but I have milk. You are welcome to it. We can wait together until your mother comes back." She honestly did not know what else to do. Especially if the child's mother did not come back... "Sed interdum rutrum urna, sed pellentesque sapien tempor in." ❧

There may be others there to hunt, but as long as the panther was there none would harm the babe. Already he found himself growing attached to the little one. In reality, he always had a soft spot for the little ones. However he was glad when Kiara arrived, since she could speak to the child and look after her while he made sure everything was safe. Kiara's tender heart nearly broke at the little girl's voice. She was so young, so innocent. To have her mother torn away, and it seemed from the sounds Keiran had heard the rest of the family as well... The roan could not imagine being taken from her twins. She did notice that the girl seemed very nervous about Keiran's presence. Go off a bit farther. I think she's scared of you. Without question the panther moved off into the night, but not to far that if trouble came he would not be able to help. He had promised Kiara he would not let her be hurt again. She moved closer, longing to reassure the child that everything was alright. "Then how about we stay hidden together." The moonlight caught the amulet hanging around the child's neck. However she nearly laughed when she was asked where her stick was. The roan knew the girl must mean her horn, which of course she did not have. "I was not born with a stick. Some are born with sticks, others are born with wings, and others like me are born with neither one." The clear sounds of hunger came from the little girl's belly. "Come, I have milk. My children will not miss any. I can tell you are hungry. Can't have you starving when your family comes back." She looked towards her hindquarters, inviting the child in. She was a mother and a healer. Neither part would allow such a young life to go without what she needed. Not when Kiara was so easily able to provide.

 You're not welcome in the Falls, you're not welcome in the Beach, you're certainly not welcome in any of the other herds. So, if you're not welcome in any of those places, where exactly are you welcome? You're not entirely sure, in the same way that you're not sure how gravity works or how the rain knows when to fall or why ants also seem to have so many important places to go. Yes, despite trying... almost trying to kind of fit in a few different places, you're still not exactly sure what your place in this world is. And even though you think you know, it seems like the rest of the world doesn't care at all what you think. Because if they cared, you'd definitely be General Oxy the Addict by now. Oh well. After your meeting with Rainbow Vomit here in this field, you've been kind of wary to come back. Who knows what kind of hot mess might be floating around here now. Besides, she's looking for someone. And if she's looking for them they're probably looking for her. And then they'll want to know if you know her, and how to find her, and how she's doing, and a whole bunch of other stuff you don't actually care that much about. Except even though you'd rather stay away, here you are anyways, wobbling about not quite so steady on your hooves. Good plan. Of particular interest to you, as you wobble about, is that you see a reasonably familiar mare in the distance. Her name and position are foreign to you, but you know that you recognize her. She was there the day you hollered at the group for making too much noise and being a general nuisance. Mother of two and yet.... the child she nursing is not one of the two that you remember. Entirely interested in causing trouble today, you decide to waddle on over and stir up some nonsense. “Two wasn't enough, you had to steal somebody else's too?” Except your voice isn't that full of disdain, because you kind of have a soft spot for foals. A little bit... until they're annoying. Your companion, on the other hand, is very interested in getting to know the child and, because she enjoys annoying you, she flits down to the foal and morphs into the shape of a butterfly dancing about- a favorite form of hers ever since Bellona. Your lips turn down in a sort of frown, but you make no move to stop her... yet. @[Kiara] Fell asleep writing this last night- whoops!  we all look for ways to make the pain go away Permission granted to use magic or physical force with Oxy at any time for any reason to any degree, with the exception of killing him.

Kiara could not help but smile at the young filly. So sweet and innocent. She could only hope that she would remain that way as long as possible. The world is cruel, but the child doesn't need to know that just yet. As the child began to nurse eagerly, Kiara's thoughts wandered to her own son and daughter back in the Falls. Nursing three little ones was going to be hard, and take a lot out of the young mother.... But made this was the Gods way of allowing her a second chance. She had royally screwed up with Malachi. She had hated and loved him all at once. But she had learned from it. Now she had the chance to raise a second beautiful little girl. As the little one finished drinking, Kiara turned her head to make sure she was alright. "No need to thank me. Couldn't let you go hungry now could I?" The girl went on to ask a question. "That black thingy- was it yours?" "He is mine just as I am his. We are what you call, a bonded pair." Incoming. Big stallion from Falls. Emerald green eyes quickly look around. At least Keiran knew it was a herdmate. Being out here alone with a young child was not ideal. “Two wasn't enough, you had to steal somebody else's too?” Ah, this stallion again. He had arrived at her birth... When she and Delinne were chasing the "father" of her twins back out of the Falls. "Who am I to deny a child in need?" Keiran slipped back closer, placing himself between the stallion and the filly and his bonded. He watches the butterfly, unsure as to why there is a random butterfly this late in the night. She glanced to the filly, realizing that she had not caught her name. "Don't worry, he is from the herd I belong to." Since the girl had said her family was taken, the roan wondered how she would react to a strange stallion arriving. "Sed interdum rutrum urna, sed pellentesque sapien tempor in." ❧

You watch as the cat places himself between you and Kiara, protecting the mother and child from you. Of course, you don't blame him. You're not exactly the most reliable of creatures on the best of days and on the worst of days... well, like you said. You understand. As for the child, you almost feel bad that you frightened it. Almost. The world is full of terrors. If the child is to grow to be strong, it will have to learn to control its fright now while it is young. Closing your eyes for half a moment, you begin to remember too many lessons from your father and the guardsmen. How many scars on your body are from when you were young, and not from your battles as an adult? Many would hate their fathers for what yours did to you, but not you. You know that it made you stronger, a warrior- the fighter you are today. In response to Kiara, you simply grunt. It is not an unkindly sound, but you've never been terribly social and you're not about to start being so now. In fact, you're about to turn and go with the small creature speaks. Two sticks? You furrow your brow in an attempt to figure out what she means before turning to Kiara for some sort of aid. Sticks, sticks? Oh- horns. Rolling your eyes, you turn back to see the violet-eyed filly playing with your boggart. You are torn between yelling at the boggart to stop her foolishness and letting the filly have her fun. You opt for the latter, just watching for a moment as the butterfly continues to flutter. “Herds are where you go to follow orders you don't want to take,” you respond grumpily to the child, sure that Kiara will have something more eloquent to say. “But they're the only place to go if you want any respect.” @[Kiara] we all look for ways to make the pain go away Permission granted to use magic or physical force with Oxy at any time for any reason to any degree, with the exception of killing him.

Kiara could not hold back a small chuckle as Oxy was informed that he had two sticks on his head. She smiled and looked to the stallion, waiting his reaction. He looked to her instead and Kiara tossed her head a bit to try and silently communicate that the sticks were his horns. When she wasn't sure that worked the roan joked a bit. "I guess he got the stick I didn't huh?" She hoped that would give it away if nothing else. When the coversation turned to herds, and the young girl asked if that was where Kiara's family was. "Yes sweet girl it is. Herds are also a lot more safe than staying out in the open. Perhaps until we figure out what has happened to your family, we should go back to our herd." Her eyes flashed to Oxy, concern for the girl's well being clear in her emerald eyes. His answer had been a bit, well, not that great for a young child. But what was she to expect when he yelled at them for making to much noise when chasing off an intruder. She looked back to the child, wondering if she would balk about leaving this spot. After all, it was the last place her birth parents knew she was. Being here would be the best place for her.... But not the safest. If it was discovered that there was another, whoever had the girl's family could come back for her. The roan mother did not want to take that chance.
