Comet

Comet still some what bloody from the battle with his son called out to his herd proudly. His call could be heard from anywhere in the terra. He was demanding that everyone in the herd come to the meeting. If not they would be kicked out unless for a good reason. His head and tail was held high in lead position. Elegant black and bloody body stood proudly. He waited for the following others to show Starfire,Tribulation,Vintage,Jewelwing,Firetail,Startail,Mocha,Sunburst,Star
Dreamer,Eclipse,Soulbane,Destiny,Courage,Skiff,Heidi, and Melinda. He made one last call a soft one asking Soulbane to come as well. If his son planned on leaving the herd he had something to say to him as well as Tribulation.

Startail,Firetail,Star Dreamer, and Melinda we're one of the first to show. Eclipse came not to far behind. Melinda glanced around. She was the only wolf there.

Jewelwing stood in the back ground in the shadows unsure. She had hopped Soul would win the battle. Fear cursed through her. Was her son alive or dead? "Where's Soul,"she called out from the shadows. Comet shook his head saying he didn't know.

Tribulation & Others

Tribulation was sick, not literally, but in a mental feeling. Torn between her loyalty to Soulbane, the colt she had caressingly let her heart entwine with his, and the inner loyalty to her adopted parents, and her mother. If she choose to go with Soulbane, would he decide to go against his father in a act of rage and vengeance? Or, perhaps, maybe they could just live alone, create a neutral herd. Paying no heed to the worriabouts of this damned valley? Tribulation didn't know. Either way, it would be tearing her from those she loved. Either she'd loose Soul, or loose her family.
Oh, God...will this be a huge mistake? Tribulation thought, knowing Soul wanted to leave. A fleet thought swung into her mind, telling her to follow her heart. Soul, I must go with Soul. I love him too much to let him go...

Vintage, the stallion now quit grown and full, trotted towards his father. Head held high, the maturing stud began to canter. The stud had no mind in being so highly ranked, hell he didn't even want to be. But whatever Comet said: went. Vintage could tell Soulbane had never liked the colt, but Vintage learned to shake it off. The stallion had lived on the edge of the territory, keeping a vigil as a guardian. Seldom did he come into contact with the herd. Vintage felt nervous, his muscles bunching up as he neared the herd. Standing a good distance away, Vintage awaited.

Sunburst was following shortly, swishing her dark tail with elegance. The rather-choppy mare's gait was now stiff, with the coming of the colder months now making her joints achy and stiffy. Sunburst snorted softly as she neared the others, ears perked. Dark eyes glittered with inner blithe, the enjoyment of autumn was beginning. Although Sunburst disliked the physical agony the colder months gave her, it was swiftly replaced with that of the joy of dancing threw piles of leaves and, as snow cascades, plowing threw heavy snowdrifts.
But that was also not what Sunburst was joyous about. It was nearing the time inwhich Sunburst had finally mustered up the bravado to ask Comet a little question. The bay Mustang was know relaxed and ready to once again carry a foal, the first in her Sparkling Creek Valley home. Of course, Sunburst would wait to ask the leige the question. It appeared as though he needed to speak.

StarFire

Star cantered proudly to stand beside Comet, their bleeding flesh a badge of victories won and trials overcome. Touching her muzzle to his own, she breathed in his scent and whispered "We have won, my love. Now things can settle down. I have something to speak with you about when you are done addressing the others.

She threw her crania and plume up high, looking at the mares she had just conversed with, content now that a bond had grown between them.

Soulbane

Soul still stood proudly and didn't show any submitting to his father. He limped toward soulbane ignoring his father.Tribulation, I am leaving here for Pyrola After my fight with my so called father i went there and defeated a stronger and much braver steed then my father, I was hoping you would join me and be my lead mareHe spoke. His tail lashed out at the flies gathering on his flank. He then moved to his mother.Mother, I also wish for you to come with, You deserve better, You will be my advisor which is pretty much the same rank as lead mare for you shall make most of the decisions and help my love TribulationHe spoke. His ears were flat back.He snorted. He had new cuts that his father had not made. He did not see how his father won. Soul sustained damage but his father had more. His tail lashed out.

Comet

Comet watched as the others gathered. Dipping his head to Tribulation, Vintage, Sunburst, and Starfire when they appered. He nuzzled Star back smiling. "Yes my love we have won. Nothing will ever stop us. As soon as the meeting is over,"he said to her voice warm. Soon he spotted Soul with Tribulation and Jewelwing. Comming forward he ignored how Soul held himself for the moment. "Tribulation, Jewelwing, and Soul if you leave rember you will always have a place here if you need it. And Trib whatever you choose I will be proud of you, and I'm sure your mother will be too,"he said. Once done he moved away back to where he stood.

Jewelwing came forward to nuzzle her son when she saw him. Smiling she was glad he had survived. Ears perked at what he said about a new home maybe. "Yes i will come,"she said, and she dipped her head to Tribulation. However when Comet came over she listened, but didn't say anything.

Startail heard what Soul said. Deciding to go say goodbye she came over quietly. "Soul good luck in your new home. Your a great friend,"she said. Then she went back to where her mother,aunt, and cousin stood. Firetail and Star Dreamer kept quiet. Eclipse attepted to catch Soul's eyes. If she did she dip her head showing she respected him and goodbye.

Melinda just stood not to far from the leads and kept quiet.

Comet raised his head to speak. Now that Jewel will be gone he would need a second in command. Searching out the face he wanted in the crowd below he smiled down at Vintage. "Now that Jewel is leaving Vintage will be the new second in command,"he said feeling proud of his son. He had saw how Vintage had tooken up to patroling the lands, and watching for danger. He waited to see his son's reaction.

Tribulation

Tribulation glanced at Soulbane, keeping her head low and glancing at Comet. She directly trotted up to him, touching her muzzle to his. "I love you. You're the closest thing I had to a father, and my loyalty falls close," Tribulation vowed in a soft voice, so quiet that it could barely register in her ears. Flicking her tail, she gave Comet one last glance before turning to Soulbane. "Let's go." Her voice twirked with remorse.

Vintage looked at Comet wildly, his muscles bunching. "R-really?" Vintage burst, ears perked with a flicker of pride. Vintage shook his ebony mane, looking up at the sky. Mom, if your watching, I know your proud.

Soulbane

He snorted and shook his head. He listened but made not motion to acknowledge him. He turned to the supposid lead mare.I pity you, My father let you lead just cause you challenged, you are stronger then heHe spoke beforeleading his mother and mate away. His dial held high and tail high.

Comet

Comet watched as Trib came forward to speak with him. "Farewell Tribulation,"he said speaking softly. He watched them go catching Soul's words to StarFire. "No, I let her lead because she's strong, goodwitted, and smarter than what i could say for some others. Not to metion she wasn't scared like your mother was. I pity you son. Your a coward thats running becuase you lost to me. I hope you treat your herd good,"he said before turning back to his herd. "Vintage, i will be vistiting South Of Heaven as soon as i'm done with whoever wants to talk to me after the meeting. Watch the herd with StarFire,"he said. With that he flicked his tail saying the meeting was over.

Soul

He snorted.OH please father! Your a coward for not taking her on! MOTHER Was braver she fought her! Unlike you! I ain't leaving cause I lost.. I am leaving because I know i can lead better then you and I will not stand to be with a herd being led by a cowardHe spokeand then cantered off proudly.
