The mare slowly sighed as the tall dead grass tickled her belly, she sourly grunted at the sensation as it only reminded her of the fact that she was in fact growing wider in girth.
Her short tail flicked as she approched the thick heart of the forest, by the clear lake that Remy had shown her. The moonlight danced off her dark form as her hooves softly padded on the ground. She had come here for a purpose, one that had filled her heart full of dread. Ever since she had met that oddly colored mare, whom had been laden with foals...she'd been full of doubt.
It was true that her and Remy have never... Professed love to one another, had never... spoken of deep things, but they had a kindred spirit, a wild streak that had brought them together. Would he shun her now that she was baring his children?
The Mare looking forelorn, her brown knitted with worry stood by the side of the lake...looking almost pleedingly around for that wild stallion that had entraced her and raced the wind itself by her side with the rain and a storm nipping at their heels.

The hour was late and the stallion was slumbering. He stood not far from the lake's edge, head low and breathing slow. It had been a peaceful night... One good for simply lazing in the lingering warmth of the sun. Soon enough the weather would turn cold... But not tonight.
Even as his midnight coat blended in with the darkness of the lake his fiery mane stood out as did the patch of flames on his backside. Easily spotted and, in his state of slumber, even more easily approached. He wasn't going anywhere any time soon.

Kitara's amber eyes squinted into the night, like living fire she spotted the framilure stallions mane as it moved, caressed by the wind. Swollowing the hard lump that crept up in the throat the mare quietly walked forward along the shore.
Her mind raced, how would she tell him? Should she wake him from his slumber or sit by his side until morning to tell him? Her ears flicked back and forth as she quietly approched him. At last, she stood only feet from his side. "Remy?" she stage whispered to him, clearing her throat she called again. "Remy?" she coaxed, trying to gently rouse him from his slumber. She would tell him tonight.

He whickered softly as the sound of a voice stirred him from his slumber. He shook his head, nostrils flaring slightly as he took in a breath of air that gave him the scent of the voice's source.... A familiar scent.
"... Chere? What'chu doin' wand'rin' 'bout so late?" He blinked his eyes, trying to get the sleep to leave them as he did so. "Everythin' alright?"

Kitara's ears fell flat against her head for a moment, was everything alright he asked. Why did that stir anger in her? She Shruged her shoulders a bit and kept her tounge, this strange rage would not due to explode out of her now. All he did was ask a simple question... not so simple if he knew the truth of the current situation though.
Clearing her throat she looked up at him with a soft smile. "I'm...sorry to wake you Remy, But...we need to talk." he voice almost cracked as she looked at him, that lump rising in her throat again. Why was she so scared to tell him? It was a natural occurance and a chance both of them had risked.

His brow furrowed slightly as he stretched out his neck, touching the tip of his nose to her shoulder. "What's wrong, chere? Seems like somethin' got you spooked. You ain't got nothin' to worry 'bout. Remy here. He keep you safe from whatever out there gettin' you all worked up.

Kitara sighed softly as his warm muzzle touched her shoulder. She listened closley to his words, but they struck a sour chord in her. Meeting with that mare had shaken her world and her beliefs. "I wouldnt say its out there remy..." After a Pause she looked up at him, her expression was serious in the glow of the silver moonlight. "Remy... Im Pregnate."

His eyes went wide for a moment before he closed them, opening them after another moment had passed only to look up at her. "Ah'd ask you who da father was... But you don't seem too thrilled 'bout this an' ah might have to hunt down whoever upset mah petite chere."

Kitara looked at him, long and hard for all that was in her wanted to explode. He either didnt remember, or her thought she was a fleeting mare whom would bed down with any stallion? Both thoughts filled her body with hot rage.
"Really? And what prey tell Remy.. Would you say if I told you, YOU where the father? Why else would I be out here in the dead of night worrying my a** off what you would think." her tart responce slipped from her lips before she could stop it and come up with an answer that reflected more tact.

He blinked at her, taking a step back before quickly regaining his ground. "Ah... You mean... Me? Ah'm a... A..." He couldn't even find the word in his vocabulary. It seemed so foreign a thought... And yet she'd said it. "You carryin' mah foals, chere?"

Kitara looked at him, she was utterly dumbfounded. "yes Remy.. .Im carrying your foals. " she said after a long pause, though her voice dripped with anger that she was desperately trying to hold back. Fear had ebbed way into irritation which had lead to the anger she now felt. His comments only moments before hadnt helped matters either.
Yet, she knew if she continued to yell at him it would do them no good, besides.. he was normally sharp as a tack. He was just sleepy...and surprised. That was all..

He lowered his head, trying to let this all sink into a sleep hazed mind. Kitara was pregnant... Not to any stallion that he would have to hunt down and stomp for disrespecting the wild, freedom loving mare that had become dear to him... Well, not unless he was somehow going to find a way to stomp himself.
"You carryin' mah foals..." He seemed to brighten for a moment, ember-like eyes glowing warmer before he recalled that, although he might not be displeased by this fact, Kitara was not happy. His ears flattened against his head as his entire body seemed to sag. "... You carryin' ah foals an' you not happy 'bout it. Ah sorry, chere..."

Her amber eyes washed over his midnight coat as he dipped his head and seemed to sag before her. He was happy, but he knew she wasnt, all this fear inside of her had washed away what traces of happyness she should have had. Her small tail flicked gently behind her as she took a step forward. "How could I be happy when I thought....You might not be?" Speaking with that mare had lead her to believe that males didnt always want to have children, that it wasnt always a happy thing. Yet.. Remy was reaffirming her faith in stallions.
He wasnt running away, nor was he angry or anything. It was as she had thought it should be... he was happy or at lest seemed it at the news. A small smile crossed her face as all that fear and pent up anger left her in a sudden rush leaving her feeling dizzy and light headed. "I am happy... "

"Ah always say world needs more wild'uns like us, chere. We teach our little ones what it means ta be wild, oui?"

Kitara nodded her head somberly as he touched her shoulder again with a gentle caress. "I suppose so, if you lead a free life...you cant always expect the outcome either. "
A small smile formed on her face, he truely was accsepting of her.. of the situation and his soon to be children. "We'll of corse, I couldnt think of any other way to raise them." she added with a chuckle. "Oh!" she blinked startled as a hard kick from one of the foals landed against the side of her stomach.
