"Yeah. Oldering kids have their uses." He chuckled. "they make great babysitters." he half smirked. "And even if we're been tackled by foals wanting to play, at least we'll be able to do somthing other then sit around until out legs fall off."
Steel stumbled a bit to the side, not expecting the push. He lifted his head and looked Isabella, cocking a brow at her. "what was that for? i didn't do anything to you." he said innocently.

Macha smiled, "I just hope they all have wings. That way none of them are left out of the fun." she nodded lightly. It would be abit harder to have a wingless child and watch them be sad because they couldn't fly with the family. Then again Racer and Steel couldn't either.
Isabella rolled her eys, "Innocent? Don't make me laugh. You're far from it." she paused and tossed her mane, batting her eyes, "I, on the other hand, am completely innocent."

Dalex nodded. "yeah. Would hate to see one of them upset because they couldn't go flying with us. But of course, should that happen...somhow...Racer and Steel don't have wings and they can...play with them and watch them." he smiled.
Steel burst out laughing. "You? Innocent? my dear Bell, that is the biggest lie i have ever heard!" he said, chuckling. "no innocent mare could ever have said half he things you said to me." he laughed.

"I guess you're right. Still I'd just hate to leave one of my children out of the fun." Macha replied leaning against him.
Isabella looked at him, "Well I had to stand up for myself." she persisted.

"I know." he said. He smiled lightly. "I know." he resisted the urge to tell her that she hadden't changed at all, but held it in, least she go off and another fight happened. He simply smiled to himself and fell silent beside her.
"Oh sure. Couldn't just walk away?" he smirked.

Macha looked up to him,"If I could..I'd give up my life as a demon, just to be normal again." she said lightly. She closed her eyes and rested against him. It was so nice not to fight with him. Sure it would take time to get use to having a mate, but she was willing to wait.
Isabella snorted, "Walk away? Then that would show weakness and fear, which I'm not. I don't stand down to anyone. I'm strong and I'm not going to let others walk all over me." she pawed at the ground. She wasn't a weak little mare that hide behind her mate. She was strong and would fight for what was her's and not stand down. Steel couldn't protect her forever. What if he had to go away one day? Then she would have no one to protect her. She had to stay strong.

Dalex nuzzled her. "I know you would..." He said. "But i'm trying my hardest to make you happy as you are. you know that right?" He said as lightly as possible.
Steel looked at Isabella before shakeing his head before turning away and begining to graze a little. "Fine, go ahead and lay there and get fat. See if i care." he said, going back to where this all started from.

"I know." macha replied. She looked off over the land. "I just wish things were like they were back then."
Isabella rolled her eyes, "Wow, that got far." she muttered. The mare turned and began to walk off. She was soon over the hill and out of sight of Steel. She looked off into the meadows, her ears drooping again. Foals came to mind. She didn't see it happening anytime soon. Steel seemed to be right. They were both still young and it probably was best to wait. But how she wanted them. She sighed and flicked her tail as she hung her head abit. Isabella walked on abit, through the meadows.

"So do i...Personally i'd just love to wipe away everthing that has happened over the years....just take everthing back to before things went wrong..."
Steel watched Isabella walk off out of the courner of his eye. He then lifted his head and looked after her. She had been the one to start it in the first place. He shook his head. Least, he thought, that shouldn't have counted as a full blown fight...and she'd be back soon enough. Tho his ears were perked and listened, strainign to keep an ear on her and her wearabouts.

Macha nodded. She wished it too. Maybe then she could watch her boys grow up with her mate. Instead of that tragic day. Watching the fear in their little eyes as she cried out for them to run. It must have been hard for them to watch their mother be taken to her death. Only have each other to protect and stay safe.
Isabella snorted lightly as she kept up her walked. She paused, hearing something. A twig snapped and she whirled around, "Who's there?" she questioned the air.
William lept out from the tall grass, "Boo!" He cried.
Isabella jumped back, "William!" she smiled and nuzzled the wolf.
William yelped out happily, "Isabella! I've missed you! How have you been? Sorry I can't stay long. I have to get back to my mate."
"I've been ok. Glad to hear you have a mate. I'll let you go though. Stay safe, and visit me more often." she called after William as she watched him vanish into the treeline.

Dalex held her close. His ears went back lightly and he nuzzled her. "I'm sorry..." he said softly. His mind to had drifted back to that day as well...and guilt flooded him. "I really am..."
Steel flopped down, bordum setting in. He had moved a little along the way Isabella had gone and had his ears perked as he sat.

Macha closed her eyes as a tear rolled down her face, "So am I." she sniffed. It was the worst thing anyone could have ever done. Be forced to watch your children run. Forced to watch their mother be taken from them. She felt awful for having her boys experience that pain. No one should have to.
Isabella looked back. She figure Steel wasn't going to follow after her this time. She sighed and trotted onward. It seemed calm out. Unusual for her. Something was always going on in her life. But it seemed nice to just take in the moment, and the culture around her. She idn't really get chances like this to admire the beauty around her.

"I wish i could have taken your place....that i could have saved you....you didn't deserve what happened to you..." He held her close to him. His eyes drifted to the clearing below and he shook his head, clearing memories that tried to resurface...Steel and Racer...in tears...Macha being taken away....himself...helpless...He had tried so hard to get her away from those men...and yet he couldn't....he just couldn't...and Steel and Racer...they begged him...they were in tears, screaming and crying. They ran away...out of his site...and then a scream...and then another...and His entire family was gone in that instent...
Steel stood and streatched and set about trotting circles around the medow. Slowly he increased his speed to a gallop.

Macha sighed lightly, "I was taken for a reason. You weren't ment to be taken." she replied. She closed her eyes again as memories flooded her mind. She knew it wasn't something she could escape. It would always be there. The most she could do is write the next chapter in her life.
Isabella snorted as she reached the end of the meadow. She stopped and tossed her mane, letting off a soft sigh. Quietly she took the time to graze while she had it.

Dalex sighed. "You still shouldn't...at least i dont think you deserved that. you were to just a sweet mare..." He nuzzled her. "But...it is in the past. nothing can be changed...no matter how badly we wish it." He shook his head to stop the screams from echoing in his mind.
Steel soon slowed and layed down, breathing heavely from the exercise. "ok....i think that....was enough..." he heaved, rolling over to see if Isabella had returned yet.
