Here we are, you decide

[horsespirit]

Night walked behind Velocity and oushed her on to his lands. He came to a peaceful clearing with caves and a lake that had a sparkling river that ran into it. "Here we are, don't judge it too quickly just because you want to leave. I shall be by your side until you decide Velocity," he added and stopped beside her, it was time to see what she thought.

Velocity

he walked close behind her, pushing her forward. when he finaly stoped in what must be the begining of his herdlands. they were lovely, beautiful scenery was everywhere, but it was deffinatly not what she was used to. she was used to places that consisted of no life. this place was teaming with life. it was something most would die for.

she listend as he spoke, she was not one to judge quickly, but after todays presentation it was hard having him so close. she moved a few feet away from him, lifting her black facade to the sky, it was almost night now, and she could see stars. it was peaceful here. with that she colapsed on the ground below her, exausted, she lay her gray eyes to rest. snaping them open just to say a few last words of the day..

I will stay here as long as you wish me to be near, and when that time ends.. i will go just as i came.
she stated with a low sigh, before laying her eyes to rest again.

That night she dreamed..
There is not a chance in hell your geting out of this, you stupid mare, how could you be so stupid, he will never take you as queen, you put up to much of a fight, it was to bold, you will never be more than a common mare, its best just to go.. you want your freedom, take it. you will never be truely happy, life as you knew is over..so take it or leave it.
she snaped awake in an instant, it was just a dream, but still the thaughts were real.

Velocity more from him a few feet and then layede down to sleep. Only opening her eyes to say what she had agreed to. Night trusted her enough to walk from her and go to one of the caves. He knew that she might run away, but if she did, then it was her choice. How annoying faes could be, he kept thinking.

Yes, I agree entirely with that. Try being in a fae's mind till she died, how annoying in the extreme.

Poor you, though I don't care, nor give you sympthy.

Enough talk, sleep

With that Night felt Serpant leave his head, what a relief. Night layed his bulk down and went to sleep. Tonight he had no dreams and the next morning came quickly.

The sun was just coming up and Night woke up. He slowly got up and shook himself awake. He walked out of the cave and to the lake, drinking some water and turning around to see if Velocity had run away.

[Cantora]

Velocity

Waking with a snap, her grayblack eyes looked arround, she rose on long black pillers and shook of the dust from her pelt. she could run now, but it would be to no avail. he would find her again. her hide shook and the nip on the flank that he gave her the day before began to hurt. she nursed it, thinking maybe that would help, but it was in vein.

she looked arround again, the stallion was nowhere in sight, knowing the horses of the night, he was probably taking cover somewhere watching her every move. so she walked arround and streched out before erupting into a full gallop, black daggers leaving heavy footfalls as she ran. she came to a slideing stop as she noticed the stallion drinking from the lake. she stood a few hundrend yards away from him now, she stood there frozen wondering what he would do next.

[horsespirit]

Night noticed that Velocity had frozen when she saw him,"And sleeping beauty finally awakes. Rest in the water with your flank in it, it will ease the pain and it a good exscuse to lay down for a few seconds or more. The water is cool, it will also numb it. Now m'dear what do you want to do? Or do you want to leave or leave to my neighboor's land? You chose, and chose carfully, I'm still not in a very good mood," he said to Velocity. She would probably chose to leave. It was the most likely one, even if she was one like his own type, it didn't matter.

Velocity

She looked at him inquizitivly before she waded into the cool waters.. it was nice..to be able to have the heat and pain off her side. she moved away from the waters in an instant. before she began to think to herself.

why did he keep asking if i was going away..after all the fight he put up to claim me, now he asks if i want to leave. this is quite diffrent. i will ask him why.. but i will stand back to avoid another blow..

she shook her black bodice to free it from water. then she began to speak to the dark stallion before her.
why is it that you ask me if i will leave? why would you put so much fight into claiming me, if i have the choice to leave? it did not make any sence to her. but she did not want to be traped all her life, and she did want to be free, but she would not leave, she just did not want to be treated like a slave.. and she really did wonder if she was to be his queen, she really had no idea.

[horsespirit]

Night smirked at the fae's question. "Because that is what I promised you when I brought you here. I do not want to dwell on it, I need to keep moving forward and get rid of this question," he replyed to her. In truth, if you got on his bad side, you stayed there for a while, if you become his friend, you just made an invauable friend, but this mare had gotten on his bad list ans was staying there for a while.

[Cantora]

Velocity

she could tell the question had hit a nerve. but it did not matter, she had the choice here, but what would it be.. on one hand she could have a perminate home, with a stallions protection.. but in the other hand.. freedom was what she had always had, she had never had anything else in life and she wanted nothing more. so here was her delima, day and night almost.

Black, slender bodice moved quick arround night, she wanted to say just a few more things before she went off..

I will stay Night..for you have claimed me and i will not protest any more, you have broken my spirit and i can not go back to the way i was. but there is one thing about me you should know, I am not what you need, i am like a gost, lurking the lands, a loner, i dont deserve company, but if you so wish it, it will be done.
she moved away from him, but turned on her back pillers to look at him once more

[horsespirit]

Night listened, "Fine by me Velocity, just don't be claimed by another stallion," he said and walked back to the caves to climb up them. He was going to sun bath up there until he felt like finding a real mare.

[Cantora]

Velocity

She looked back it him with a quizical expression. he was surely diffrent than what she was used to. as he turned away from her she began to wonder why he wanted her in the first place. there was certinly nothing special about her, she was one color, and had nothing special to offer, regret and remorse were about it.

Thank you. this was all she said, it was all she could think of, no lyerical poetic words came to her maw, it was too late for that, there was nothing she could do now. she pivioted on her heels and began to trot away, black banner floating effortlessly in the mid day sun, she was off in her own world of mental imprisonment.
