.:Black Hearts... Black Snow:. « Thread Started on Dec 19, 2007, 9:40pm »
Midnight barely made it into the fields even with Omen's help. The snow was not what slowed her however the foal in her belly was.
---Foal---- Gah.. I want out of this place I say! Let me out.
The foal was already energetic, Midnight could tell that just from her labor. Just into the birthing field, Midnight let herself colapse into a small clearing. This would do just fine. Another contraction set it just as she had settled on the cold earth beneath her. A kick nailed her left side. This foal just wasn't having anymore of being inside or her and that much was evident.
---Foal--- I'm going to kick and push my way out of this icky hole if it's the last thing I do!
Midnight pushed with her all the might she had left! Gahh.. get this thing out of me already! she screamed, could anything be harder than this? And with a few more incosistent pushes and as much of the foals help as it could provide, out the little darling came. Black as coal with a hint of silver from Omen. Midnight's breath labored now, chest heaving but she turned back to the foal, nudging it slightly, raspy tounge licking it's face.
---Foal---- It's cold out here! I want back in! The small foal nudged Midnight's flank, attempting to push her tail out of the way. Quit licking me already! I don't want to be out here!
Midnight chuckled to herself lightly. She looked up to Omen, So, any thoughts of a name?

During Midnight's entire labor, Omen stayed beside her, keeping his head low to watch for the foal, and nudge and lick her from time to time, encouraging her to go on with her pushing, but remaining silent for the foaling. When the foal was on the ground, he only watched with slightly widened eyes. It was somewhat hard to believe that just a few moments ago the foal ahd not been there. Soon his expression changed to one of pride, his eyes tender as he licked the foal's side, then nuzzled Midnight affecionatly. No names come to mind....We'll have to come up with something.Omen said softly, coming down to his pillars beside the two, staying close to Midnight so she would stay warm against him. His gaze went back to the foal, its birthsack sliding off due to its Mother's licking. Omen smiled, and looked at Midnight. Our foal is perfect Midnight.He said, hsi breath kind of taken away by the fact that this was their foal.

So, are we going to share the foal? Or who's gonna take her? *is having fun with the foal comments*
---Foal--- What are these things and what are they doing here? the foal wondered to itself. Why is this one licking me and the other one staring at me? Laying there letting this thing lick me is no fun. I wonder if I can stand like the silver one was. The tiny filly evaded Midnight's tounge, ducking a bit to the side so she couldn't reach. She put a scrawny leg out to her front, quickly pushing the other out with it. Splat... back to the ground she went as she tried to push up on her front legs. Ok... let's try that again. she thought falling is so not fun.... Hesitantly, she decided to work with her back legs first this time. One hoof out, two hooves out. I can do this.. I can do it I know I can! the filly decided maybe both should go out at once... So, she jerked her front legs out from underneath her and she went tumbling. There's got to be a trick to this somehow... And finally, up she went on all four legs, wobbly and spread out but she was up. I did it! Oh yeah! She was so proud of herself and she wanted every one to know it.. a weak little whinny sounded from her throat. What was that? she jumped from her own noise and splat she went, back on the ground. Hmm.. I wonder where I get food.. I'm awfully hungry. Looking at her legs for the first time, she examined herself... I'm.. one of THEM? she was oh so confuse but supposed they knew what was going on. The filly turned to them, not moving from where she lay on the ground, and again whinnied, this one a bit more... powerful than before.
Midnight watched the foal attentively, motherly eyes making sure she wouldn't wander to far in her attempts to stand. She couldn't help but chuckle to herself, I wonder if I tried it that way. she said aloud. Midnight looked up, eyes toward the sky, it was black as night and the moon was shining brightly. How about Moon for a name? Midnight had always loved the moon, especially when it was full. She nickered to the filly, standing to go to her, but hesitant a little, Omen was very warm. She should be quite hungry I think. Midnight's foal.. and she was completely clueless. Standing beside where her filly lay, she nudged her slightly to stand, she wouldn't reach Midnight's milk from the ground. Stand my little one. I'm sure you're hungry. Her voice was soft and sweet.
---Foal--- Food! That's all she wanted. She took her time to stand, legs quite wobbly and she honestly didn't want to end up on the ground again.
That's it Midnight thought, take your time. Once the filly was up on all fours, Midnight pushed her head towards her milk sack. I hope she figures this one out.
---Foal--- I guess my food is in that... sack? she wondered. Instead of waiting to find out, the filly plunged her head underneath her mother's stomach, latching on to the tit offered. A warm milk gushed into her mouth and the tiny filly drank greedily. Boy, this sure is yummy!
Thank goodness. Midnight said to herself. Looking towards the spot Omen lay, she said to him, Yes, she truley is... a perfect little angel isn't she? Her eyes beamed with happiness as she thought of the upcoming days.

OMen laughed lightly at their foal getting up, them repeatively falling to the ground with a comical *Splat!* Moon...Yes that is a perfect name darling...He said, trailing off, his orbs starry and shining as he stared at their filly, their perfect little dark Moon. She's beautiful, just like her Mommy.He said teasingly, nuzzling Midnight's nape softly, his eyes starry still. The snow around them fought against the warm moment, but in the end the warmth of their hearts and bodies won the battle, but had they won the war? Their old enemy would return once the magic of the moment wore off. Maybe not wore off, but once the magick was normal and became the mundane. He watched Moon drink thirstily, a pleased look on his face as he lifted his dial up. His nares flared, catching a scent. At first, he pushed the scent away, but his nares flared once more, and he registered it as the scent of death mingled with a scent he knew, the scent of Zanthos. His brow furrowed, but he wished not to disturb the moment, and merely hoped Midnight and Moon would not smell what he smelt. The smell crept and crawled into his nasels now that he had detected it, and he could not help but shake his dial, trying to rid himself of it, as it bothered him imensly. M'love, stay here, I will be right back.He whispered into Midnight's soft aud, and rose, slinking off into the trees, following the scent. He stopped in his tracks when he found the source. There on the ground lay the source, Zanthos's mangaled and blood stained body, one eyes falling out of its socket. Omen resisted the urge to vomit, seeing a name was written sloppily in the snow. he read it apprehensivly. Zeecarian. He jumped back, and rushed to get back to Midnight and Moon. His mind was haunted by the name. Zeecarian? Whom was Zeecarian? Was it even a horse? Was it just random nonsense? HIs mind swirled with thoughts, his eyes dark and troubled when he came back into the clearing where Midnight and Moon lay. The stench now rose and swirled in evne the clearing, a plague. Zeecarian...Where have I heard that before?Midnight, I think we should go...He murmered, looking behind him as if the corpse had followed.

Midnight faded in and out of reality. Her body and mind were tired, worn dry. She had no thoughts really of what to do now. A light breeze flowed through the fields and brought with it a minor disagreeable scent however nothing to disturbing to her. Omen snapped to attention, scenting it. Midnight watched him. He seemed alarmed as if the scent was something other than just the breeze floating by. He shook and turned and such, something about this bothered him and he told Midnight he'd be right back. Be careful dear. Midnight called to him as he left the clearing. Moments later as he promised Omen returned. Before he had even reached her, Midnight smelled him, a scent of death.. blood surrounded him. She snapped back into herself quickly. There would be no time to fool around, something was wrong and she knew it. M'love what is it? What happened? She nudged Moon from her suckling saying to her Darling I think it's time you became more acustomed to those legs of yours. Looking at Omen, a rock dropped into the pit of her stomach, What's happening to our fairy tale? she thought.

Omen looked at his mate sadly, not as sad for the lost life as much as he was for the moment of calm and peace being ruined, and for the first smell their foal smelled was not the pungent oder of death and crimson blood, hanging in the air like a curse. His eyes saw the ivory snow blanketing everything, and at first the novelty of snow had been quite exiting but now it too became a curse as well, making them all shiver and hunt for a mere sprig of grass more than ever before. He looked upon the foal with loving eyes, wnating nothing more than to just nuzzle the little horse's coat, and help the darling little Moon to her feet. But right now he could not do that, his mind was too clouded by questions. Who was this creature whom had killed the black brute? It had to be a dark, a light could never commit to such a deed, could they? Wondering won't help Eclipse, just keep going with your family. Zanthos was not your family, he was one of your kin but never fmaily.He told himself, and shook his head to Midnight. Though their foal would probably not understand words yet, he did not want to say what was wrong aloud so she would hear them. So he would get around saying he was dead. Zanthos.He said in a way that hinted the steed had become one of the army of dead. [/size]

Midnight shook her head. We've got to get Moon to a safer place. Her eyes fell to the little one at her side. She had not known Zanthos well but he had held power and that much she knew.
--Foal-- What is wrong with them. she wondered, she did not yet understand the words they spoke however she could pick apart feelings. The auras around the clearing had turned dark and the air smelled retched. Moon gave a little neigh, as if trying to say Hello.. I'm here and I don't understand.
Snow blanketed the world around them and Midnight knew it wouldn't be easy to get Moon anywhere fast. Where are we going? Back home I think may be the safest place but then again... I'm not sure.
Re: .:Black Hearts... Black Snow:. « Reply #7 on Dec 26, 2007, 12:48pm »
He nodded to her suggestion. Home, that will be best for everyone.He said quietly, wanting to help Moon onto her legs but he was still frozen. It's not a big deal, you and Zanthos did not get along.He told himself, taking a step forward, the smell of deaht overbaring for his nostrils, yet they still flared. Do you yet know of truth, Eclipse?!He heard a bubbly voice in his mind, gigling childishly. Aw, do you plan on telling her everything?The voice said, and added a gasp. She'll hate you then you know, lie, lying is best to do!The voice with the child like tone told him. A look of confusion crossed his fadace, but he brushed it off and looked to Midnight. Come, let us go home.He said, his voice half hearted with a hint of confusion.

Have a look, very good, pass by... Be honest but not too modest. Dress properly. Don't shake hands with the interviewer until he/she extends his/her hand.
