Re: When Death Comes My Way, The Darkness Will Be All Too Welcome {Please Reply!}

~The Phantom
I look at the little fairy, almost wishing that she weren't here so that I wouldn't have to deal with it. That was one problem about living for so long; When you start getting older, you stop caring about others' problems more often.

[Guest]

I look at the two and sigh.."She was chasing it because she wanted to destroy it." My voice was soft now with sympathy. "It is sad..I have been with Black Rain all her life...she will never be the same. She will always be a monster lusting for the heart that pumps warm blood through the veins of living things..." I shake my head as I continue to hover there. Then I look to the stallion. "She came here because she had heard of you..she thought you had left for good, so she had taken up residence hoping to just rot away here for eternity and not kill anyone."

[Guest]

"Well she was wrong." I said harshly.

[Guest]

I lean back and arch an eyebrow. "Excuse me?"

[Guest]

"She was wrong. He is back." I said, venom in my voice.

[Guest]

"I'm sorry, but I believe I was talking to him...not you." I say slightly aggitated with eyes blazing. "He has the right to know if someone is on his land." I shake my head and put my hand to my forehead with a sigh. Calming down, I sigh again. "Now lets not get nasty. We have no reason to be angry"

[Guest]

"But he does know." I pointed out. "He can sense if there is another."

~Phantom
I shake my head slightly, listening to her. "I never truly leave, I just get bored staying out here all alone and travel a lot," I say. Turning at the sudden sound of bitterness in Mystie's voice, I arch my eyebrows slightly.

[Guest]

"What?" I ask, seeing Phantom's eyebrows go up.

[Guest]

Noding I reply. "Yes, I know that." I turn back to the stallion. "May I talk to you." My eyes dart to the mare. "Alone." I say as I look back at him. "Please"

[Guest]

I snorted and bared my teeth as my ears went back. I didn't like this fairy, and she needed to leave. There was something suspicious about her.

[Guest]

I flutter back a little bit. "Whoa there, no need for hostility." I say with hands raised.

[• Echo]

~Phantom
I look at her for a moment before nodding. "Of course," I say, flicking my long tail unhappily, wanting to know what was up with Mystie.

[Guest]

"You know, you're right." I said, all venom gone from my voice, mouth closed, ears forward. Two could play this game.

[Guest]

Nodding undecidedly I turn and glide over to one of the many dead tree's covered in snow and wait there. The tree was huge in wideth and was at the edge of the forest. Sighing I lean against it and face the mare and stallion. *Is he coming?* A thoughtful voice whispered so quietly that I almost didn't hear it. Not even flinching I nod and say "Yes, in a moment."

[Guest]

I lowered my head when the fairy left. I fell to the ground, exausted. "Go." I said weakly.

[• Echo]

~Phantom
I sigh, lifting up into a rocking trot after the fairy, my legs sinking up to my knees in the mushy, wet snow. Slowing to a walk as I come over to her, I stop beside her near the tree. "Yes?" I ask, feeling tired of all this even though I knew I couldn't sleep.

[Guest]

*Do you think he will be angry if he realizes I'm here?* The soft, gentle, yet strong femine (sp) voice whispered again. The fluttering sounds of my wings stirred slightly as I frown. "No, he probably already knows you are here. The mare doesn't know yet. I sense she has yet to grow in strength...unless you are using your sheild?" No sound answered the fairy at first then the tentative voice answered. *Why does she hate me so?"* "Maybe because your very presence makes her competative?" The fairy replys shruging and looks back to see if the stallion was coming. Seeing he was almost here I hush the whispering voice and half smile at the stallion when he approachs. Sensing he was unhappy i look away then look back at him. "Does it bother you, as much as it bothers the mare Mystie, that Black Rain is here?"

[Guest]

I rolled on my back in the snow, enjoying the cold. I stuck my muzzle in it like a foal and sneezed when I got some up my nose. I shook my head as if to clear it of all this.

[• Echo]

~Phantom
Coming to a stop beside the hovering fairy, I snort softly, then shake my head. "No, of course not. I don't mind if she stays here; Everyone has their own needs, and if she needs a place to stay where she can be alone for the most part, then she's welcome here," I say. Again I found myself wondering why Mystie didn't like Black Rain very much; We were all different, so why did she hate her so much?

[Guest]

I reared as a snake slithered around me. I stomped the ground, trying to kill it, but somehow missing each time. I tried to listen to what they were saying, but they were talking too quietly.

[Guest]

Black Rain~

I slowly back away from the tree and immerse myself into the forest. Seeing Mystie playing I watch her for a few minutes, remembering the days when I was happy like her and could play without feeling like a damned fool. Wanting to get closer I make my way around the clearing until I'm resting in the tree's literally feet from where she was. My icey cold breath crystalizing around my muzzle and rising like steam into the cold frosty air.

Fairy~
I smile more easily and with gratitude. "Thank you..so much..It has been so hard on her having to adjust and be alone all the time." I sigh, once again, and shrug. "At least she has these dreadful creatures to be around." I chuckle half heartedly then suddenly turn serious. "I don't get it. You've had to have had crossed her before.? Both of you have...been this..creature, for so long. How do you manage to live like this?"

[Guest]

I find a spot of grass on the ground not covered by snow. I grab a mouthful and chew slowly. It tastes funny. I spit it out and see nothing unusual, so I lick the snow to get the taste out of my mouth.

[• Echo]

~Phantom
I smile small back. "No problem, we all need a place to live, don't we?" I say. I shrug then, lsitening to her continue. "I was born like this, it just is how I've always lived," I say, a little nervously. I didn't like talking about my Life too much, I didn't even know how I was born, I had never had a mother or father.

[Guest]

Black Rain~

I flick my tail and let my sheild up. Sighing inwardly, I rest a back hoof and contiue to watch with a longing look on my face. Feeling the presence of the spirits again I flatten my ears and shake my head. Turning my head around and facing them I toss my head a few times with bared teeth. They only bothered me so badly because it reminded me of the countless lives of those who I had taken. Rolling my eyes I lick my lips and turn back around to watch Mystie play and move about.

Fairy~
I nod in understanding. "Like Black Rain...Kind of anyway."
