Order and I Shall Obey (open)

[Pandora]

Looking around, Theo risked it, and he stood slightly normally. "I figure, but I have little time. Ice is going to get hurt. That mare she made angry, she's not nicknamed Viper for no reason! She's in trouble. I rushed to find you first, but...I have to go Milady, I'm needed elsewhere," Theo explained as quickly as he could, before becoming submissive again, backing off slowly as another mare came to wonder at the lake.

Theo hoped, he hoped, the Goddess would come crashing down to kill him. Of course, if it meant protecting one of the mares, she might not.

Windspirit listened to Theo speak, her maw dropped open when she tried to say something, but no words would come out. She blinked when he turned and ran away from her. She turned her gaze toward the female that had walked toward the lake. She was looking at it with wonder in her eyes, for the mist was still there. Wind looked back to where she had last seen Theo, but she didn't see him any longer.

Theo was trotting through the forest, and he found 'Viper'. This mare was thinly built, and, ironically, her ears made a heart above her head. Viper would never have foals, and every time she went into heat, she avoided stallions all together, like she didn't want to ever have a foal.

Her favorite past time seemed to be tormenting the colts, and trying to get Theo to 'disobey' again.

Following her, he found she was following the pair, and he tensed. He didn't doubt Ice could fight; he worried what Viper would do.

[ooc: i think viper might die, so i don't want to take the time to make the sheet for her]

[TobyMacFreak]

Ice stood beside her friend, her back hoof was propped up on the tip. Her blue orbs were shut and her breathing was slow, showing she was asleep. Kalypso stood there, swishing her tail back and forth as she hummed to herself. She reached her large black head down and tore off a few strands of grass and ate. She grazed while standing beside her sleeping friend, not knowing about the mare behind them.

'Viper' struck forward, striking her front hooves out at the sleeping Ice. She didn't get far, as Theo did the most dangerous part of his life. He knocked into Viper, and he snorted nervously, sounding panicked. "Milady, my apologies," he apologized, but it didn't save him from being struck across the face by Viper.

Snorting, he lowered himself more in submission. "What is it?" Viper snapped.

Theo wasn't sure what to say, and just repeated how he saw the lake. He just wasn't sure if he was going to live. Breathing heavily, sweat soaking his sides, he was exhausted, and now blood trickled down his head. But Ice was safe, for now.

[TobyMacFreak]

Ice opened her eyes when she heard the sound of hooves hitting something. The white before her made her step back and bump into her friend. The Vanner snorted as she awoke from her daze. She tossed her head in the air and then looked at Theo and the one called Viper. "What's going on here?" Ice asked in an angry voice.

[Pandora]

"This idiotic stallion is scared of a little mist and came running around, trying to find someone to explain it to him. He bumped into me, and he must now be punished," Viper snapped, striking Theo in the shoulder.

He barely flinched, but he was relieved he wasn't going to die, though hopefully it didn't show. He didn't like the prospect of death, his colts needed him. "My apologies m'lady, but I thought for sure you would need to know. I'm sorry," he whimpered, much like a stallion that had been 'properly' disciplined.

[TobyMacFreak]

Ice flattened her ears against her skull. "What were you doing by me anyway?" She snapped at the older mare. She looked over to her father, but said nothing to him. She would not respect him, no she was not. She looked back to the mare and asked, "Well?" Kal stepped forward and said, "Yeah! Well?" Ice looked at her friend and then said, "Shut up." "Okay." Kal spoke before she dropped her head and took a few steps away from Ice.

[Pandora]

Viper felt trapped, and she quickly cantered off, realizing her plans had been foiled. 'That stallion wasn't terrified!' she realized, and turned, a furious fire raging in her eyes.

Turning, she continued to run, and Thor moved away from the fillies, submissive, still bleeding from his head & shoulder. Moving slowly, he moved, trying to find out if Viper would just try to kill him. Snorting a little, he continued on, hoping he wouldn't be ordered to stay.

Viper would want to deal with him, and he needed to move. The blood was starting to restrict his movements.

[TobyMacFreak]

Tha Vanner looked at her friend and she watched as the white figure moved away from her. She looked at the bleeding stallion and walked over to him. "If anyone catches me helping you, I'm dead." She whispered in his ear. Then she pressed against him and let his body weight fall into her. She could take whatever he had for her.

[Pandora]

Thor forced himself to stand, and answered back, whispering, "I won't risk the lives of others. Besides, Viper won't try anything. Just have Ice watch her back please. She's a little mad at me I think."

He forced himself to keep walking, with the knowledge he would have to avoid Viper for awhile.

[ooc: don't know where this is going anymore. Ice is a little mad at him]

[TobyMacFreak]

The Vanner felt his weight lift off of her side and she snorted at him. "Fine, don't use my help." She whispered to him, but it was too quite for him to hear. She swished her tail and then said, "Don't order me around stallion." Her voice was cold, but it held something else. She would watch out for Ice no matter what, and he should know that.

Ice walked around the lake, her breath coming shortly and quickly. Anger rose up in her for some unknown reason. She stomped each hoof as she walked along, making prints all over the ground. "You know, everyone's going to know where you have been." Her mother's voice came to her ears and she lifted her head and looked at the gray mare who was walking toward her. "I don't care." She told her mother with a hit of embaressment in her voice.

[Pandora]

Theo made his way to where the stallions wandered, only to be intercepted by Viper. "Boldness isn't rewarded in stallions," she snorted, and he remained submissive.

Low, he didn't even flinch as she circled him, and then backed off. "You must have been terrified of the mist to come crashing into me like that. How about we make it a little harder for you to see it?"

It was his only warning of her hoof hitting his head, knocking him out.

[TobyMacFreak]

Ice cantered toward where the stallions stayed in the forest. Her hooves carried her quickly across the bumpy land and the rocky ground. Her white mane bounced on her neck as she cantered, her blue eyes were wide with fear. Kalypso had told her about Theo's warning, but she had this feeling.

Ice slid to a stop as she heard talking. "You must have been terrified of the mist to come crashing into me like that. How about we make it a little harder for you to see it?" She snorted and charged forward out of the bush to see her father being kicked in the head. Ice threw herself toward the larger mare, hoping to hit the female with some force to make her unstable.

[/size]

[Pandora]

Viper felt the force, and fell to the ground with a snort. Standing, snorting, she reared up slightly. "What is the meaning of this?" she asked, ears against her head.

Over a ways, Theo was starting to come to slightly. As he opened his eyes, he found on the side of his head that Viper had kicked, his sight was a little off, and he resisted the urge to curse, but he just lay still. No need to interrupt a fight that would end in blood shed. Besides, he couldn't fight this.

Oh, he could defend, but he couldn't fight. He would like to avoid death while he could.
