"I'm very sorry" I said to them all in a rather posh way, which was strange because I'm anything but posh, "There is not normally anything out here, did you not wonder why the grass was slightly burnt?" I asked before looking at the grass myself, it looked healthy and, if it was daytime, green. "Hmm" I pondered to myself. "Either I haven't been here in a while of Berry has been here" I looked at the three, I suddenly realised what they were "Well this is the strangest trio " have ever seen" I said trying to change from the subject that i could have killed them "We have a horse, a dragon and a...." I looked at the third creature for a moment. "What the bloody hell are you?" Just as I finished my sentence i knew I had dropped myself in it...again. ----------------------------- ((Ok Berry is another OC, she probably won't be in again, but if you want her her in I'll put her in. Here is a picture of her and her Mate ( the-horster-tamer.deviantart.com/art/Wheat-and-Berry-93387375) Oh and I don't know if swearing is allowed so I put the best un-offensive words I could think of in their place , If you allow swearing I will change all the words to their proper ones ))

((Swearing is acceptable if that's how your character speaks )) I stomped a hoof in irritation but otherwise chose to say nothing for the time being. I would do well to keep to myself if I wanted to stay alive, but at the same time I was ready to snap at the haughty stallion. First he apologizes, then he goes and insults Sentinel... smart creatures we had here, even I could see that the creature wasn't one to take any crap, especially from anyone who seemed to have a high opinion of themselves. I was the same way, but I hardly had the power to kill them if they got on my nerves. What an ideal specialty that would be. "The moon reveals some of the most interesting of characters," I mumbled to myself, referencing my company but only the storm being in irritation. He hadn't killed us, so i couldn't find it in myself to blame him for that.... but at the same time... With a snort I bent my neck and ripped up a mouthful of grass to chew on while the others bristled at each other. It would help me keep my big mouth closed since I wanted to explode. With a deep inhale I focused deeply on breathing and stretched my neck out as I swallowed to try and relieve the pressure building in my temples once more. Encounters with strangers had a tendency to give me head pains like this, so I wasn't completely unaccustomed to it, but these were fairly intense, probably due to the interesting nature of my company.

I flicked my tongue, feeling my temper begin to break off at the seams. I should be used to blunt and curious characters by now, but getting asked why you were what you were some fifty times a day was getting old. "The next person to asssk that isss going to die..." I mumbled as the last of the poison dripped from my tail. "In all honesty I don't know what I am. I'm obviousssly no animal any one has ever ssseen before so perhapsss this form was crafted by the gods themselvesss. How about we leave it at I'm the thing that can kill you without even trying?" I said, my words stern and clipped to keep me from yelling. Then It would be nothing but jumbled hisses.
"Maybe we should talk in the morning when I'm more civil. All of thisss excitement has me worn out," I suggested after a beat of stunned silence. I could talk better without a hiss and when I was on level ground anyway.

I chuckled to myself after the strange creature said that he could kill me with out really trying, he obviously didn't know what I am. But I could not be bothered to start an argument that would result in someone getting hurt, I could tell none of them had accepted my apology. Now the beast suggests we should sleep? "But I have just woken up" I thought to myself but I agreed anyway, i thought while they are sleeping i could go for a run and see a few friends, that is when I realised something. Why should I do what that creature says? I'm to tied to this trio in anyway, shape or form, but something it my gut said I should stick with them. Why?...well I'll have to find out. I bid goodnight to the odd trio before finding a spot on the grass to sleep.

"I wouldn't test him," I sighed, pointing the comment at the flying creature as I nodded my to grab another mouthful of grass. Sleep would be nice, but I wasn't entirely sure if I was capable of it seeing as I hadn't slept in a few days now. I just loved the night so much...
"I'm going to eat a bit more before I find rest," I said to Sentinel, "But I would love to continue our conversation. I won't wander too far."
With those words a trotted off to where I could see a patch of particularly green grass and began to nibble on it, watching the pegasus with intense eyes as he found a place to settle down for the rest of the night. Who was to say what the dragon would do? I assumed she would want sleep as well but I could never know. I was a creature of the night at heart, and once I had had my fill of grass I would most likely lay down and watch the sky for a time. The peace I felt at that point would decide whether or not I would sleep, seeing as I didn't necessarily need much of it.

I regarded the new commer. Even though he apologized, I got the feeling that he was anything but. Still, there didn't seem to be anything else to do but wait for daylight. But I certainly wasn't about to go to sleep. "Well, i'm not going to waste an night like thisssss" I said, spreading my wings. "I'll see you on the ground in the morning" With that, I lept into the night sky, powering up toward the clouds.

I nodded to them, and just as I was about to settle in, a small sound reached my ear. A doe moved gingerly across the far side of the meadow, the moonlight casting a faint glow to her silhouette. I licked my chops as her scent came to me.
"Dinner."
I burst from where I stood and set chase after it immediately. I sloughed through the grass and with a final push I bounded out and seized the small animal in my paws. I had my meal.
With that taken care of I was able to curl into a good spot and rest to sleep off the food. In the morning I would graze again at last, something I missed. In the morning I could figure out what to do with all of these strangers.
But that was for the morning. And for now I was sleepy.

I could feel the sun shining through my eye lids, but I couldn't be bothered to open them so I decided to bath in the sunlight for a bit, well until I felt someone standing over me. I opened my eyes. "AHHHHHHHHH!!!" I screamed as I leapt backwards ((Imaging how difficult that would be for a horse that was lying down )) away from the green thing standing in front of me. "Oh will you relax, it's just me" said a familiar voice. I gave my eyes a chance to focus, then i realised who it was. "Berry? What are you doing here?" I asked as I clumsily stood up. "I was just checking the area, to see how things were growing" She replied "But then I found something, follow me" She started to walk away from the spot, I followed. Berry stopped a few meters way from where I slept and indicated to the ground. Lying in front of her was the carcass of a deer. "Who did this?" she asked in an angry tone, which was very rare for Berry "Erm..." I stalled as I glanced around, I had a feeling it could have been the dragon or that other thing, I couldn't see them which ment Berry hadn't either. I sighed with releif. "Well?" Berry asked "Erm...I could have been Sabre, Shadow...maybe even Fang...he is being weaned at the moment isn't he?" Berry looked at me in disbelief. "Listen...I don't really know who did it, but if i come across them i will kick their ass" I answered Berry didn't let up her stare. "I promise" I replied. That answer must have satisfied her as she snorted and walked away. I sighed in relief again before heading back to the group. "Hey! Hey guys?" I said as looked for the others. I found the only other equine in the group but I couldn't find the other two. "Where could they be?" I asked as I sat in the grass "Maybe they are up and looking for food" I decided to wait.

I felt my bones melt and my muscles mold into an equine's form, and I knew it was morning. When I had finished shifting I jumped up and stretched, happy to be back in my unicorn form. I snatched up some grass, loving how it tasted in my mouth. The grass here was amazing.
I sucked in lungfulls of fresh air, happy to no longer breathe through my mouth. The sun felt warm and inviting on my black pelt. My white mane and tail were tangled somewhat, but not enough to bother me. I trotted around, swishing my tail as I went, my hooves kicking up turf in my wake. I saw the Pegasus roaming around, probably looking for us. "Good morning!" I called, happy that the feral snarl was no longer in my voice. "Lovely weather, isn't it? And you slept well I assume?"

"Ow.....equus, I HATE that part...." I mumbled, as I staggered to my hooves, my legs (and most of my body) complaining at the movement. At least mornings weren't as bad, becomming a dragon hurt worse than you can possibly imagine. I'd managed eventually not to pass out during the process, unfortunatly. Still, at least the sun was showing itself. I stood for a moment, letting it's warmth hit me, finally melting away the last of the pain. I inhaled a deep breath, the scents seemed diminished, somehow. Dragons apparently have better nares. Still, the others scents were in the air, so I followed them back, grazing as I went along. I eventually saw the pegasus overhead, and an unfamilliar black unicorn on the ground below. His scent was familiar, however. <So, that's what he normally looks like> I thought, as my eyes drifted over his form. <Not bad> "Morning, yes. Good? Not if you have to go through what I do every morning" I smiled, grimly. "But that's nothing compared to what happens at night..."

I stared at the two newcomers.
"Who the hell are you" I asked their eyes seemed so familiar. I stood up tall and puffed my chest out and slightly spread my wings to make myself look bigger.
"What was I afraid of" I thought to myself "They are just horses" But I could sense there was something strange about them.
I stared at them for a bit before it suddenly hit me.
"Dragon? Thing?" I asked them "Is that you?"

"Thing?" I laughed. "I like that, it fits you" I said, with a nod to Sentinel. "But yes, we did both say those weren't our actual forms, remember? I felt we were both pretty clear about that" I said, walking closer to the two. "And it's Kolorsha, not dragon, by the way" I grinned at the two, before looking back at the pegasus. "So. You were looking for us?"

I looked stunned at the to equine standing in front of me.
"Erm... Yeah i was looking for you" I stuttered "I wanted to know who ate the deer over there" I used my head to indicate to the spot where Berry had found the half eaten deer "You see, who ever it was could be in a lot of trouble."
I paused for a moment ant looked at the pair again.
"God I wish I could transform" I said glumly "The most I can do is hide my horn and wings...oh and form a plate around my head if im going to fight."

"No, you don't" I replied, shaking my head. "Least not the way I do. Can't speak for him, though my shift usually knocks me on my tail" I indicated Sentinal. "As for the deer, I don't know, I had eaten earlier. I always tried to make sure I ate before I shifted, in either form, I could eat until I was full, and it would carry over. I did NOT want to find out how much i'd have to eat as a dragon. "Why would there be trouble? That kind of thing happens all the time, what's so different about it here?"

"Well, you see..erm...I have a friend..well she is actually my mothers friend...erm-" I stutter and pause as i try to explain "-and she...well...she takes care of plants and animals...she happened to be looking after this area and she found the deer...she looked really mad and Berry isn't normally mad...erm...." I felt like a fool, stuttering my words like a nervous foal, I'm supposed to be a stallion. "I really don't know how to explain it" I said "Just forget it I threw her of the trail anyway. Suddenly something random hit me. They didn't know my name. "Er, I seem to have forgotten to introduce myself" I said blushing slightly with embarrassment "My name is Ekaitz, but everyone calls me Flash...even my enemies." "Erm...can i ask what you three are doing together anyway? Are you on some kind of journey or quest or something" I asked ---------------------- ((Flash has a new reference )
