Empress tore into the lush field faster than she ever had before. She skidded to a stop and glanced anxiously around for Vivian. She whinnied loudly. Remebering the bite on and blood on her shoulder, she quickly craned her head around and licked off as much as she could. At least the foal from the horrid stallion would be Light. She gazed around her home. So much brighter than the gloomy lands of the Dark. Empress looked across the clearing for Vivian, and whinnied again, not yet spotting him.

Gold galloped out to the returning mare. Empress! You have returned, good! She nuzzled the mare. I am glad to see you. Are you all right?

Empress nuzzled the mare back, relieved that someone was there, she was . I am glad to see you too, Gold. she said, but turned her head away.I am...fine. She still would not look at Gold, Empress was too ashamed. She turned also, so that she was still facing Gold, but so the bite on her shoulder was on the opposite side. She felt terrible, for her lack of respect, but currently she was far to shameful to face her. She feared that Gold would be angry that she had allowed that.

Gol felt that Empress might be still frightened over the circomstances, and put her head near the mare's. You aren't the only mare to endure what you have. My daughter Treasure has a Dark sire. I know how you feel. It will be all right. You are not at fault.

Empress lifted her head slightly, she had forgotton Gold had been through pratically the same thing. As awful as it was, she was glad to have someone who understood. Empress smiled weakly. I suppose both our foals have a Dark sire. shaking her head, and now Dancer she thought, she had heard from Faith that she also had been stolen. Looking at Gold, Empress said, What about Dancer? She will terrified! Empress began pacing. Another Light mare stolen! She was sure there would be a fight over her. She only hoped the dark brute would still be hurting from the fight over her. She sighed, and begann to graze. It had been to long since she had had such lush grass.

Vivian tossed his head in a happy way. He had fought back for Empress and won. He was still in pain very much, but didn't show it when he was around Gold, not wanting to worry her. He had also been told that thief had sired a foal with Empress, but he was glad she would be raised light. Cryssy had also been stolen, and he was going to get her back. Vivian tossed his head again. "Empress you're back! I'm so glad!" He said nuzzling the mare. He then turned to Gold. "Cryssy has been stolen, I have to go in a bit and get her back, and I'll be careful." He said in a urgent tone, so quiet only Gold could hear.

Empress nuzzled Vivian back, happy to see him again. A true leader. She noticed that no one else was there, then saw Vivian whisper something to Gold. Someone was stolen. It was not a question, Empress knew someone was missing. Who is it? Empress closed her eyes in anger/saddness. There was only one other mare. Cryssy, and she had a foal coming.

Cryssy came galloping home, head held high, she had out-smarted the dark brute. No one needed to fight for this mare, she could take care of herself! Her maw opened and she let out a whinny. Taking site of Viv and Empress, the gold fae headed toward them.

Empress whinnied to Cryssy as she galloped toward them. She appeared to be inhurt, thankfully. Cryssy! It is good to see you again!

Cryssy shook he mane back into place after stopping by Empress "Thanks, it feels good to be back! I was able to sneak away behind the brutes back."

Empress chuckled. Leave it to Cryssy to find a way out. She glanced around at her herd. Everyone of them where her friends. Her family. She made a silent vow to protect them all at all costs.

Several weeks later...
Empress slowed to a walk, her knees buckling beneath her. She sank to the grass, taking a deep breath. She tried to ignore the pain, and enjoy the sun on her back instead. It was difficult but she managed in the end.
Some time later...
Empress heaved herself to her feet, and looked down at a small, dark bay colt. He quickly staggered to his feet without a second thought, and drank his fill. As he did so Empress licked him clean to reveal a deep colored coat, shinning in the afternoon sun. As she studdied her son, a name popped into her head. Adagio. She said it aloud to herself, liking the way it sounded. Adagio. The colt looked up at the sound of his new name. Empress smiled, she couldn't wait for Vivian to meet him.

(OOC: If you don't mind Cryssy bringing her colt over...)
Cryssy walked with Duram prancing beside her. The gold mare knew that Empress was due soon and decided to see how she was doing. Coming out from the trees, Cryssy spotted the mare with another small figure next to her. She had given birth!
Duram lifted his long legs high as he stayed beside his mother. He wanted to go and explore, but his mother had told him no. Coming to a clearing, he spotted a mare and foal in the distance, excitement coursed through him and he wanted to run and play.

OOC: not at all!
Empress trotted up to Cryssy, grinning widely. She looked at Duram. He's beautiful! Empress told Cryssy her smile widening. Cryssy had a foal practically the same day. She craned her head around to look at Adagio, who was standing close to Empress's side, staring at the other colt and fae.
Adagio watched the other colt closely, wanting badly to play. Flicking his over sized ears, Adagio pawed one tiny hoof playfully. He moved from the protection of his mother's side, so that he was even with her head. He cocked his head side ways, a curious look on his face, little chocolate orbs met big ones, then the other set of little ones.

"Thank you, what did you name your handsome colt?" Cryssy could feel Duram at her side, wanting badly to romp around and play.
Duram was trying to be good and hold himself back until the mares said they could play, but it was so hard. Finally the chestnut colt took to the air spinning and bucking, then running a little way away, hoping the other colt would fallow.

I call him Adagio, and yours? He's certainly something. Empress smiled at Cryssy, as she watched Cryssy's foal romp around. Empress looked at Adagio, seeing he badly wanted to join. Shall we let them play? She looked at Cryssy, before allowing her colt to join in.
Adagio looked at the other colt, now tearing around a few feet away. He watched longingly as the chestnut played. He wanted to join in, but he waited for his mother to give him permission. He wished she would hurry up, there conversation was taking much too long. He snorted immpatiently, earning himself a scolding look from his dam.

Cryssy watched her colt rip around and play, I really should scold him, but he has been so good today, ill just let it go. "I named him Duram, and certainly." she said laughing "wouldn't want them to die from lack of play"

Empress chuckled and nudged her colt toward Duram. Go and play, but don't stray too far. Empress smiled as her colt rushed forward, dashing around, chasing and running after the other colt. You certainly can't keep their energy levels to normal! She couldn't keep the smile off her face as Empress looked at Cryssy. I think they'll be good friends.
Adagio bolted toward Duram, whinnying excitedly. He took off bucking and rearing happily, but minding his mother's order to stay near. He caught up quickly and spoke eagerly. I'm Adagio, youbare Duram right? Adagio bounded around on slender legs, using all his strength to race the other foal to a nearby tree.

"Hi Adagio, and ya I'm Duram!" The chestnut colt was smaller than Adagio, but was light on his feet and could spin on a dime. "Here I wanna show you something!" Duram took off toward the bushes, he stuck his face in and smiled. A hedgehog sat with its baby, curled up in a small spiky blob.

Adagio followed the other colt, dashing over and sticking his nose in the brush. Poking his head through the tangle of branches Adagio could see a fat spikey thing. A hedge hog and its baby. He flicked his over sized ears around. They're cute. He said, his breath ruffling the pale grass. Adagio yanked his head out, leaving a small gap in the leaves. Turning around, he spotted a shallow creek. Race ya! He exclaimed, and bolted in the direction of slowly trickling water. He leaped in nad luckily for him, could stand easily in it. He splashed around, snorting water around as fish scattered in all directions.
