Chapter Seven: Eros; A Change Of Pace


The mare wasn't out for an outrageous amount of time, a few hours at the most. The sky was a bit dark, even darker with the forest blocking almost all forms of sunlight. The sun had to be setting now. Or maybe it was already set. She couldn't tell too well with the trees hanging over her; blocking out the sky.

Wearily she stood to her feet, shaking herself off a bit like a dog. Besides from being tired she felt pretty good. Sniffing herself the mare noticed she was healed once again. Confusion evident on her face.

It was then that she remembered she had the boy with her. Panic setting in just a little bit she looked around. Searching desperately for the green clad child.

Seeing him nowhere in sight she charged towards the clearing from before, dodging and weaving any obstacles in her path. Searching for the boy. She had to find him, that strange man was bad news. She could feel it in her bones. The mare was going to find her little green clothed friend.

She was determined to do so.


Horse P.O.V. (Experimental. Let me know if you want to see more of it)

Elidora knew not where her little green friend went after what happened. Honestly it terrified her. After so long without a worthy companion brought that wonderful feeling of purpose back into her life.

She hadn't been able to find him anywhere near the original area. Thus she had expanded her search.

Now she found herself about a mile from a very large and intimidating volcano. The name she knew not but she felt like it would be the place that unnerving man could have possibly taken him.

The unsavory environment brought her fur to a stand. Her brown eyes wide open and wary.

A brief snort and she started a slow cautious walk, head low as if she were snaking a herd like any stallion would. The cloop of her hooves sounded as she walked on the warm stone. Eyes up on the thick smoke shooting up out of the volcano.

The gentle rumble of the ground. It sent the flight or fight response coursing through her veins.

Elidora fought it and held firm, watching as pebbles shook below her hooves. A loud explosion sounded from the top of the volcano. With a racing heart she snapped her head up to gaze at the sight. Fear etched in her expression.

Nostrils flaring as she watched bright warm colors explode out of the top.

The sound of fellow hoofbeats approaching quickly. It was a wonder Elidora could hear them over all the loud explosions.

They came to a halt, skidding across the rocky terrain. The golden mare turned to see who it was just as quickly as the sound had appeared. The stallion.

It was the stallion from before. That golden white hued stallion that man rode.

With clenched teeth the mare let loose a call that could very well be considered a hoarse roar. Clearly distressed and angry at the same time. The stallion's ears perked up at the sound, but he wasted no more time and got straight to the chase.

"The volcano is erupting you stupid mare!" Surprisingly his voice was deep but not so that he sounded like her sire. Almost smooth.

She made no move. Her ears pinned flat against her neck.

The male snorted, stomping a hoof down hard in clear distress. A loud crashing had caught both of their look to see what it was. The mare's eyes widened at what she saw. A giant rock tumbling down straight for Elidora herself. "MOVE!" The lean and tall male blurted out loudly.

Stamping her feet in quick succession. Panic shooting through every fiber of her body. She charged out of it's way, feeling the rock brush against her tail.

She seemed to be in the clear, her attention turning to the stallion. Some would say she was sour about him and the man taking her green clad friend. No she felt it was closer to rage. Her mane covering most of her face. Another boom sounded off and the stallion uttered quickly. "Let's go."

Without any hesitation she followed, scowling at his rump as she followed him to safety.

'I swear if he thinks I'm his to claim just because I chose to follow his orders I will rip him a new one.' The mare silently claimed, snorting as she followed his pompous rump down to a safer part of the volcano.

Just seeing him prance with self importance really got her all riled up. She never liked stallions and a good thing too. They caused nothing but trouble in her eyes.

He lead her down to a very well hidden location between cliffs and rocks. It almost seemed like a stone prison along with extravagant exterior decorations. The stallion slowed down to an extended trot and Elidora followed suit.

She cautiously kept a few lengths behind him. Still skeptical about this clearly pompous acting stallion.

"What is a mare like you doing way out here anyways?" He turned to face the golden mare. Taking notice in her clearly hostile body language. Ears pinned, teeth clenched, flaring nostrils. The whole package.

A few seconds later Elidora calmed down enough to give a reply. "Oh you know looking for my friend. Which I distinctly remember you were there too." Elidora remained hostile, gaining a cocked head from the stallion.

A nicker came from the pale colored stallion. It sent a wave of annoyance to the mare.

"Have a told you how beautiful you are my lady?" The stallion bantered on, a smug smirk adorned on his face. Clearly trying to impress the mare. "No and don't start." She hissed through clenched teeth.

He takes a few bold steps closer, ever the smile adorned on his face. Elidora leans back as he got within a few feet of her, but still holding her ground.

"Then might I ask a lady's name?" Cooed, getting even closer, almost enough to touch her muzzle. The golden filly backed up instantly, not at all liking how close he is getting. Elidora snorted, looking off to the side in a bratty manner. "Elidora." She mumbled, flashing a glare towards the pale stallion.

"You're sire has blessed you with such a wonderful name." He purred happily, arching his neck in a display of stature. The mare merely rolled her eyes subtlety.

"And your's?" The golden mare questions, clearly calming down for a bit. Interest sparking in her brown eyes. "Eros." His name was said without any hesitation. A true smile playing at Eros's muzzle.

Elidora had to admit, he caught her interest.
