(I only want three RPlayers here,so please don't pile on. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Legend says that the unicorn is a beast of purity,innocence,and benevolence.To see see one is to know true beauty and grace.They bring fertility to young women,and offer courage and strength to young men.Their tears can cure any illness,and their horn can bring back the dead.They wander their forest protecting the animals from hunters,and keeping travelers safe from harm.For hundreds of years,these beasts were worshiped and revered as holy.Some versions of the Bible even said that Christ was a unicorn.And for the longest time,to kill one was considered unforgivable.That was a long time ago. Now the humans that once revered them,hunt them mercilessly.Wanting to either kill them,or keep them captive.Most want their horn,while others just want them as pets.Many have been killed.Their horns crushed and turned into potion,selfish kings and queens hoping for an easy way to immortality.Some spent their entire lives in cages.Forced to offer blessings to their masters until they die of loosing their magic in sorrow. This one mountain had been void of unicorns for many years.The unicorns that was once there had been either killed,captured or left.Save for one. Deep in the forest,past the oldest oak tree,over the waterfall,and across the river,lived the only unicorn on the mountain.He was small.Only 14 hands tall and slim.He was deer like in his build,with long thin legs,cloven hooves,and slightly large ears,and had a beard.He had a tail like a lion,and had pale blue eyes.His white pelt shinned in the morning sun,glistening and sparkling like a star in the night sky.He was much older than he looked.Tho,by how much he wasn't sure.Time had lost meaning to him long ago. The unicorn looked up and sighed.The day had just begun,and already he was tired.Another day of trying to avoid the humans was sure to come,and he would have to hide as he always did.With a sad look,he gazed at the morning sky almost pleadingly. "....Please,spirits of the earth,give me strength to live another day.So that I might meet one who cares"he said to the quiet of the forest.Hoping he would find some hope in this world.Just a hint of true innocence left in the dying world of faith.

His auds perked. The unicorn raised his dial, listening. Surely he hadn't heard what he thought he had, there haven't been any unicorns living here for decades at least. Not since they'd all been hunted to near extinction, anyway. That was something the young one couldn't figure out, what had caused humans to change so much? And why? "Hello? Is someone there?" he called out softly, rising to his rather large, feathered hooves. Unicorn he might be, but having hailed from a line of Shires, he looked almost like on of the large draft horses, just a little sleeker in look, though he shared the unicorn's long tufted tail and chin hair, as well as thier long horn, otherwise he could have been mistaken for a normal black coated Shire from a distance, something that he'd had to rely on far to often in recent years... He hadn't heard a reply and his heart sank a little. "It's ok, i'm not going to hurt you..."

The white unicorns ears perked at the sound of a voice.It sounded like an equine.He raise his nose and sniffed the air to try and smell who and what the voice had come from.His eyes scanned the trees for any movement.As he looked over the thicket,he heard the voice again.It came from behind the bushes,and they sounded close.The white male raised his head high and began walking towards the voice.With a smooth voice,the white one replied.
"Yes,someone is here."he said as he rounded the trees.He took offence to the 'I wont hurt you' part.With a disinterested look on his face,he prepared to display his irritation to the other equine.Those thoughts quickly left his mind as he laid eyes on the other.It was a unicorn.A very big unicorn at that.He easily dwarfed the white stallions 14 hands.The white one was taken back by the massive creature before him,and shook his head to clear his thoughts.
"U-um,...ahem.And who might you be?"he asked still slightly in shock.

There was someone there! The unicorn took a step foward, but the owner of the voice came into view first. <Oh my> he thought, as he took in the sight of the stallion. He was smaller, graceful looking, certianly the classic "unicorn" look. And good looking too, his white coat reflecting the sunlight. The big stallion quickly pushed that line of thought aside. "By the spirits! I didn't think there was anyone left here! I had serched but..." he trailed off, his nares flushing slightly. "Sorry, it's just been a long time since i'd even seen a fellow unicorn, much less talked to one....my name's Justin..." he finished, smiling shyly at the other unicorn.

The white one put on his best stoic face as he looked the other stallion up and down.He was huge compared to him,then again,He'd probable be huge compared to anyone.The white unicorn took long graceful steps towards the other,shaking his head lightly to show off his beard,one of the more prided aspect of the unicorns.He tilted his head slightly as the stallion told him his name.The white one snorted stood as tall as he could for someone his size.
"Justin,huh.Interesting.My name is Samiel....As like you,I have not seen my kind in a very long time.VERY long time."he said with slight sadness.

"Yes, it has been too long..." Justin agreed, sharing Samiel's sadness. "But at least....maybe we could stay with each other for a while?" he asked, hopefully. "I'd prefer....company" He caught himself before he said what he wanted to say. There weren't many of thier kind, FAR less shared his.....preferences. The last thing he wanted to do was isolate the first unicorn he'd seen in nearly two decades...

Samiel thought about this for a moment.This unicorn was young,much younger than him certainly,but he was also enormous.He wasn't sure he could win in a fight with him.Then again,the male seemed rather...Non dominant.He did't seem to be interested in fighting with him.Also,it would be nice to have some company in his cave,other than the small animals that visited.And two pairs of eyes could spot trouble better than one.Samiel sighed and nodded in the direction of his cave.
"...This way.My cave isn't too far from here....Come along...Justin."he said as tho the name were foreign to him as he began walking with long graceful steps.

Justin smiled. "Thank you, Samiel." he said, following the smaller stallion, watching his graceful movements as he walked. Justin's own stride certianly lacked the grace of Samiel's, but his more than made up for it in ground covered. He had to walk slower, to avoid outpacing Samiel.

Sam kept his eyes forward as he walked.Or,at least he tried to.Justin's size was impressive,and his muscles worked alive with every step he took.Sam shook his head lightly and forced his attention up ahead.His cave was on the side of the waterfall,so they would have to go over it.His cloven hooves made it no problem for him,but he didn't know how the larger stallion would do.He stopped short of the waterfall and turned to the other male.
".....I can't exactly lift you up,so your going to have to climb.I'll try to stay on the less rocky paths."he said as he began climbing.

Justin laughed. "No, i'd imagine i'd be a little difficult to lift as well. No worries there, Samiel, i'll manage." he replied, nuzzling the smaller stallion gently. "Lead on, friend"

Deep in the shadows a horse stood watching the two other horses. He seemed sad as though he was only a ghost floating around aimlessly in this world. He couldn't help but watch the two. He thought of a time when he had someone like that but alas that time had passed. As he made his way back through the path he recently walked a rouge branch was lying in his path. Oblivious to this he walked on it. With that a loud 'CRACK' echoed throughout the silent forest. He stood paralyzed with fear.

Sam twitched lightly were the other had touched him.He was a bit of a touch-me-not when it came to other equines.He chose to let it slide this time,as they needed to get up the rocks to his nesting cave.As he continued the climb,he heard a snapping sound fill the air.His ears perked forward and he held his head high to try and find the source of the sound.
".........Hmm?......."

His auds came up again, hearing the snap of a branch nearby, even over the sound of the waterfall. "I heard it too..." Justin remarked, realizing just how vunerable both Samiel and him were out on the rocks like this. "Um...maybe we should continue? It'd be much easier for me to work illusions from that cave of yours if I had too, as opposed to out on the rocks here." he said, his nervousness evident in his voice. Whatever was out there, it was fairly large. Justin just hoped it wasn't a threat to either of them...

Nyoka snapped out his shock and looked down. {Calm your self Nyoka, Just a branch...Its just a branch...It's just a br---} His eyes widened his mouth started stuttering "S...s...SNAKE?!?!" He bolted the other way to the snake. He knew how dangerous snakes were and how some could kill even the strongest horses. He opened his eyes and realized the was completely out of the forest. {Crap!} he stood for a while and then just remembered what snake it was {It was a grass snake...ARGHGHG!} then he dropped his head of thinking about how thick he had been.

Samiel snorted and reared as the new stallion shot from the trees.He didn't like the amount of new comers he was meeting today,and he quickly ran up to the other stallion and lowered his horn to him.
"....And what do you want? Are you here to fight?"he asked rudely.
