Zeda smiled at the little one as her ears twitched her head shooting up very quick as she looked over her shoulder a cold shiver going down her spine as she nudged the little one.
"Shhh." She whispered before walking to the direction of the tree's, her eyes widened slowly as she stepped backwards towards Forte. "Run, come on." she stated as she lunged ahead pushing Forte forwards as she jogged lightly looking down at her, she would lose her other wise, she assumed short legs meant slow runners.
She looked back seeing the black creature come into sight, Kalona where in the forest just as she guessed, this was a large male which was bad news because she had heard of there violent nature and with an Usida around it would just mean an easy dinner for them, she could just run and let the monster have Forte she would get away easy if he went for the bait, but... she did not want him to hurt Forte for some strange reason.

Forte tilted her head at her, and she had moved a few step forward, and then she was pushed backwards to run. She wasn't as fast as Zeda, but she did okay for her size. She had to move faster to keep up with Zeda's longer strides. She had looked behind her to see the Kalona. She had never seen a horse that looked like that before... "W-what is that?~" She questioned Zeda breathlessly. She had never heard anything about them... She wanted Liberty right now... She felt a fear run through her, because Zeda was running too. If she was frightened then there was really something wrong...
The Kalona looked around, his blood red eyes took in the area, and instantly picked up on the two running. They both looked rather delicious... With a swoosh of his big leathery wings, he took up off the ground and moved onto the path the two were on.

Zeda looked down at little Forte and slowed down slightly as she saw the monster take off.
"Thats a Kalona a walking demon on earth they live to hunt anf kill, they are the evil which is in many of the stories my two legger tells me, thats why i dont really come here, they where rumours of a rogue." she stated as she turned around looking at Forte. "Keep going get a head start ill catch you up." she said with a small smirk.
"c'mon then you over grown pony." she muttered with a small growl to her voice as she ran back towards it circling the edge of the forest slightly in hope to get its attention.
The Kalona looked at her with a small growl bearing all its fangs and it kind of dived out of the air like a darting eagle hitting the ground just behind Zeda. She looked back and took a sigh of relief that it had missed her if only by an inch. She looked back at it as she snorted and darted off into the forest. Taking another look back to see if Forte had hidden

Forte looked over at at Zeda as she took off. She snuffed around some, looking for a place to hide. She saw what was probably a nesting place of some smaller creature, but she would be able to fit in the brush... She hovered down and wiggled her way in, facing out, she bit down on the branch, and she pulled it to cover the hole she was in. She looked out, and from the very corner she could see the Kalona go after Zeda but then saw her vanish into the woods. forte whimpered some, she really wanted Liberty right now... She laid her head on the ground, moving her ears around to try and catch the sounds that were going on out there. "Zeda...."

Zeda weaved in and out the trees it was hard for the Kalona because of his big body and his bulky build, she started to pant her mane and tail flying all over the place the Kalona kept up with her though until it was able to kick her in the side. Zeda went flying as she hot a tree, she panted looking over jumping back up onto her feet. She started once again to run off, she was running for quite a long time and soon she seemed to have lost him.
She smiled and walked back to the clearing a giant hoof mark in her side as she panted looking around. "c'mon hes gone... i hope." she muttered as she rolled her eyes thinking the young Usida should appreciate all of this she was so tired.
Unbeknownst to them they where still being stalked.

Forte looked around alittle, seeing Zeda. she wasn't running or anything, so it would seem it was safe to come out. She wiggled her way out of her hiding place, and she moved onto the path and looked at her. "Zeda, what happened to your side?" She padded over some and looked at it. She couldn't really tell if any of Zeda's ribs had broken. She looked up at her worriedly. "We should really get that looked at Zeda...."
The Kalona decided to lay low for the next few moment. Just watching them. He hoped they'd head to the field... there was no where to hide for them there. It was an easy hunting ground.

"Dont worry it is just a scratch. I am fine but thank you for worrying about me Forte it means a lot." she panted as she kneeled down it was true that she had injured her side and she was in pain but she did not want Forte to worry and above that exept help from anyone it just wasnt how she worked, she smiled as she looked over at her little friend she seemed fine which was good if that Kalona had got her a little Usida like herself would stand no chance. She tilted her head as she got back on her feet. "well all of that running has made me hungry you know some good eating around here half-pint?" she asked as she looked around having the feeling they where getting watched, she did not want to go back by the river she knew that that would open them up for another attack.

Forte watched her, she was still worried, but if Zeda didn't want to try for help then she couldn't make her. SHe'd just keep her eye on her. "Good place.... oh, I think theres an apply orchard the humans have." She tilted her head thoughtfully. "Yeah thats right.. it should be on the other side of the woods." She looked up at Zeda. "Does that sound alright with you?" It was then that she heard a twig break in the woods, and she looked out.. her eyes narrowed but nothing really stuck out... But it made her feel uncomfortable.

"Do not be scared Forte lets just carry on." she stated as she squinted slightly looking at her side she was bleeding a little but that did not bother her there was a lump there it was swollen and bruised she was really surprised that one hit from a Kalona could cause her so much discomfort. She looked down at the little one and was glad she was okay she felt as if she had adopted Forte as a little sister. She speeded up just a little hearing the same thing, it was still around which bothered her but just a little further she had a chance of her owner being there and she knew Kalona kept away from humans as much as possible.
She knew the place that the little one was talking about and she was happy by her disision she gave a small smile and nod in approval as she looked to the side and smiled over in the direction that the noises where coming from. In a way of telling it there was no way it was going to get them, Zeda knew that thing could kill her but she was not too bothered at the minuet its not like she had anything to live for anyways.

Forte sighed lightly. She was glad that she wasn't alone... She walked with Zeda, weaving in and out of the trees, toward the place the humans grew the apples. She didn't want to embarrass of put Zeda on the spot... But she was really grateful for what she did. Had she not, surely she would have been eaten. She couldn't help much on that feeling of being watched, but she decided to take Zeda's advice and jsut carry on. "I like that they grow different types of apples." The variety in taste was always a good thing.

"Huh? i didnt know there where different types of apples they where just all the same thing to me? you sure know a lot of random thoughts half pint." she stated as she looked down at the Usida walking next to her, "So tell me Bean Sprout, do you have a family or anything waiting for you back home?" she asked, she knew it was a very random question but she thought it might help the little one take her mind off the events that had just unfolded.
She looked up ahead they where not too far away now, maybe she could go and get her side checked out when they got there, she did not go near the village often but it always seemed to cheer her up when she was feeling down, because of all the fires and huts, plus no one came up to talk to her there because they can not comunicate with Soquili.

She blinked. Was knowing information random like that? "Well... it really depends on what you're looking for. An Apple is an apple, but if you're looking for a taste... Thats when you notice the different shapes and colors... give a different taste." Her human treated her well, maybe to well... She'd always bring home different things just for her, and this is how she learned that there were different kinds of apples. "Family? Well... Yes and know. " She laughed a little. Through the trees she could see the shorter apples ones. "I don't really have any brothers or sisters, but, I guess the closet thing to family i Have is Liberty." The face of her love popped into her mind. "He's my mate." She blinked up at him. aside from him all she had were alot of friends... "What about you Zeda? Any family?"

Zeda looked at her. "Well my father doesn't even act like i exist, my sister hates me, my mother wants me to be a friend not a daughter, then i also have a lot of friends boys and mates are not on my list at the minuet." she stated as they soon came to the apple groove Zeda smiled as she walked over to a tree stretching up and throwing a few on the ground.
"So this Liberty what is he like?" she asked as she tilted her head in a little bit of confusion not because she did not think Forte could have a mate she just wanted to know... "How do you know he is the right one? how do you know you love him?" she asked blinking her eyes and starting to munch on a apple.

"Hm.." She commented on Zeda's family. Forte wished she had known hers, but maybe the reason she was alone was because it wasn't right for her? Drama or no Drama, a family must be nice... right? "Liberty... well. He's very sweet, and pretty energetic. He takes good care of me, and teaches me things, or helps me with things i need help on. He has a lovely herd too." She followed after Zeda and she took one of the apples on the ground. "Well... as for being the right one, its a bit of aleap of fate, if you will. I know I miss him when he's not here, I'm happy when he is. We never fight. And He's always o my mind... and I know I love him because I would do anything for him, just as he would for me. I waited while he had to leave, and he came home to me." She looked up at him after taking a bite from the apple. "I guess there is no sure way to tell, but you just have to trust in that feeling."

"I see." she stated going quiet for a few minuets taking in the words Forte has just said. "So there is no real way of knowing unless it happens to you." She stated with a small smile as she let her mane fall over one of her eyes. "I see what you mean, all you can do is hope that whats lies ahead of you, is something that is worth that trust, something you can hold onto." she stated being very precise in the words she used.
"It must be nice having someone like that by your side." she stated with a small smile as she yet again finding herself nuzzling the little one behind the ear. "He sounds really nice i am happy for you." she stated in a whisper so only Forte could hear her. She would like to have someone like that one day, but as her mother had told her, she would have to go threw a lot to make sure that he was the right one, after all she did not want to follow in her mothers heart ache.
