[CrimsonMoon]

Thunderstep stood on a ridge near his herd, watching as his huge family grazed in the long green grass. He was old now but no less ferocious and feared... But he was a reapected old war horse by both human and equine... His gace flickered to his son Jetstorm who flirted with one of the mares and rolls his eyes in amusement... When would he find a mare like his mother...?

Thunderstep's ears flickered, he spotted one of his more trusted young mares gazing toward horizon," RedRaven!!" He calls," What is wrong?"

The blue roan looks up and gallops to him, her blue roan pelt was more like a paint's but instead of brown and white, she was a gorgeous blue and red roan mix," I hear hoof beats," she answers, the raven feather in her mane resting against her slender neck

[Blazy]

Blaze cantered with his small herd over the endless grassy plains, his heart beating strongly in his muscular chest, hooves thundering over the land. He tossed his head back, silvery mane fluttering in the wind. He glanced to the left to see Star galloping gracefully next to a younger brown mare, to his right was Buck galloping next to a pure white filly, with him bringing up the rear. They came to a stop at a small watering hole, to drink their fill and to graze while they rested for a brief time. He looked out over the prairie, deep brown eyes ever watchful for any signs of danger.

[CrimsonMoon]

RedRaven and Thunderstep immediately spot the small herd,"... Should we confront them?" The gorgeous mare asks

" Yes... They're too close, our scent is all around the watering hole... Our hooves mark this earth," Thunderstep snorts on annoyance and tosses his mane," JETSTORM!"

The young stallion relctantly gallops away from his new pursuit and trots up to his father," Yes?"

" intruders,"

" Got it, Challenge them, be right back," he neighs with laughter and takes off, RedRaven galloping behind him

[Blazy]

The five horses grazed for a short time, when Blaze heard hoof-beats in the distance. Lifting his head, he spotted horses coming towards his small herd. Turning towards Buck, he nickered a warning and trotted out to meet them before they got too close too the grazing mares.

[CrimsonMoon]

Jetstorm paused when Blaze approaches and nickers loudly," What're you doing so close to Yellowstone land?" He asks aggressively

RedRaven shoots him a warning look and suddenly looks shy when she sees Blaze

[Blazy]

Slowing to a halt, Blaze took note of the beautiful mare standing beside the stallion. Turning his gaze to Jetstorm, "Just passing through. My herd stopped for water and a brief rest, we were leaving shortly." He replied easily, "We will leave now if you wish it," He added as an afterthought after glancing at Buck's wide eyes.

[CrimsonMoon]

" Yeah you better leave becau-"

" Put a rock in it, Jetstorm," RedRaven finally sighs, the two having a glare match until Jetstorm wins and RedRaven just lowers her head and pins her ears in passive defeat

" Fine... I guess you can stay for awhile, but we'll keep an eye on you... In fact!" He turns to RedRaven," Why don't YOU stay here because you're eyeing Blaze so much!"

" WHAT?!"

[Blazy]

Snorting, Blaze shook his head, his tail lashing against his powerful haunches. "As the leader commands!" He retorts, with a mock bow of his head. His eyes fixated on RedRaven, she was quite the mare, he thought.

Buck watched the interaction between the three, growing more and more nervous the longer they talked, he shifted from hoof to hoof, trying not to draw attention to himself.

[CrimsonMoon]

RedRawvn flinches and lets her head drop again. Jetstorm rears in suprise but steps back and neighs with laughter," I'll see you in a bit~" he mocks, galloping back to the figure of his father who was on the ridge above

RedRaven glances back at Blaze and snorts,"... I have to LIVE with that thing,"

[Blazy]

"Terrible." He replied. "How does a beautiful mare like you, wind up in a herd with a stallion like that?" He asks, turning back towards his small herd, Buck following a short distance behind.

[CrimsonMoon]

She snorts and shrugs," I'm just lucky, I guess," trotting after him and looking at Star curiously," my name is redRaven,"

(I feel... Like a rivalry between Star and Red would be fun xD)

[Blazy]

Star looks over at RedRaven, "I'm Star." She replied shortly, clearly not as impressed by the other mares' beauty. Buck trotted past the two, not saying a word to either as he went to the water's edge and drank heavily. Blaze shot a look at the other stallion, "That's Buck. He... Is different." He shook his head once again. "His story is not mine to tell, but I'm Blaze, since we were never formally introduced, and this is my wonderful herd of five."

(Yes! Star gets jealous and tries to get Blaze to like her instead of Red!)

[CrimsonMoon]

(BWAHAHHAA!! XD)

Red instantly feels the unfriednliness from the other mare and can't help but smile slightly despite her bashfulness,/she was... Jealous...?

" Wow... I've... Never heard of such a small herd," she nickers, smiling at Buck gently, easily bejng seen as a Mare you could get alone with

[Blazy]

Blaze snorted, "My herd was scattered when a cougar attacked." He whinnied softly, his dark eyes haunted by memories.
Star turned her back to RedRaven, pushing her velvety muzzle against Blaze's shoulder.

"We're here for you now, Blaze." She nickered softly, reassurance in her voice.

[CrimsonMoon]

Red flickers her ears sympatheticaly," You should talk to Thunderstep, he'd be glad to help you find the rest of your herd. He may be tempermental but he's wise," she whinnies, taking a dainty drink of the water...

No competition here

[Blazy]

"You think so?" He asked, thoughtful, brushing off Star as if she didn't exist.

[CrimsonMoon]

She nods enthusiastically," Of course, we can... Talk to him now, if you want, i'm sure hemd understand if you explained", she encourages... She looks at Star curiously

[Blazy]

Star looked at Blaze, wondering if he'd leave with this mare he'd only just met, and if he'd take the rest of the small herd with him. "What about us? Are we invited?" She asked, curious and slightly fearful for her fate.

Blaze looked back at Star, "I'd never abandon my herd, Star. Never." He assured, before turning back to RedRaven. "Will you bring him? We can meet in the valley just below that ridge." He indicated the ridge Jetstorm disappeared over not long before.

[CrimsonMoon]

" I wasn't asking you to leave your herd!" She laughs and nudges his shoulder playfully before trotting a few feet away," He won't be happy about it, but I wouldnt worry!"

[Blazy]

Blaze nods and follows after her, motioning for Star to stay and watch the rest of the herd.
Star snorts and tosses her head, anger sparking in her cerulean eyes before turning away and trotting over to Buck to talk to him.
