Fear was bitter and all consuming as he raced after his father and bonded. He had been scared before, when his father woke him after he had been born, but this was different. This was pure flight instinct and it tore at his heart. He raced blindly after his golden father being guided by the silver wolf at his side. He was older now, more prepared to take care of himself, but unwilling to. In their mad dash a mare joined them one that looked like his father. They greeted each other with tears and warm words. He stood back until they turned to him, Ilios introduced the lady as his granddam. "Hello, I'm Kyros." His smile quivered weakly as he gazed into her rich honey eyes. A falcon fluttered down and landed in front of him cooing warmly. His muzzle reached out and he embraced the mare. She pressed against him while his father pressed on them both. Penna and Isabella joined in adding their own love.

After a moment, a much to short moment they raced on again as the smoke pressed around them. They burst into a clearing filled with strangers. He swallowed hard pressing against his father and wolf. He swallowed his heart hammering as others moved around them. Ilios shoved him back and they all spoke to hi before stepping forward. 'No... NO!' He tried to follow them squealing his fear at being left alone. Isabella blocked his path and Penna landed on his back cooing his feathery body shaking. Both companions knew they were about to die, just as their horses did. The foal came first, before all else, they knew he was what their soulmates wanted them to protect. They had said their farewells already; bid their love and were continuing to do so.

"NO PA!!" Anguish pierced his heart as his father was pulled into the air. Their eyes met one last time and he screamed, "I love you too!" Tears burst from his eyes as he watched them die. His aunt, grandmother, and father all gone. Then he looked to Isabella and Penna. They gave him one last loving touch before their own life was sucked from them. A shrill cry exploded from his lips and he hit his knees his eyes blank and glazed. "No. No. No." He kept mumbling to himself his eyes staring at the ground. He felt as if he had been drained of life and been with with a burning pain.

Someone brushed against him and the boy lifts his ivy marked face wondering if someone had come for him. His heart clenches tighter as he realizes there is no one left. None of these strangers would care about some poor orphan boy. He watched loving mothers shove their babies into the portal ahead of them while they call back to loving fathers making sure they will follow. Black eyes turn away gazing at the fallen around him. So many had died here today, most of them he hadn't even noticed. When his tiny family had vanished so had a part of him. 'Maybe I'll just stay here and die along with my family...' He looks up once more tears rolling down his silvery face pleading etched on his handsome features. Would anyone stop and help pick up a child they didn't know? Surely someone in this mess would have known someone in his family. He struggled to his hooves ready to make the journey on his own, if he had to. He watched everyone race past praying one last time for someone to help him. If nobody stopped he would slip quietly into the portal, completely unprepared for the next life.
