Knowing that if he spoke he would not be able to do what was needed Demon simply changed forward, shoulder prepared to make contact.
BINGO! It met its target, forcing the slightly larger stallion backwards with such forced that he could hear his father groan and strain against his speedy attack. Knowing that to do this he must have taken his father by surprise Demon didn't hang around long enough to gloat. Instead he darted down the next tunnel.
He was so determinded to make it to the exit that he ignored his fathers growns as he obviously got back to his feet and set forth with the chase once more.

Gishoni took the hit, it was a solid hit of the boys shoulder to his throat. The attack left him breathless, his throat raw.... still all he did was grin.
Regaining his strength he lunged himself forward and towards his son once more, his red glowing eyes making easy work of the darkness before them. He bared his fangs in a menacing grin..... the hit had managed to remind him who he was chasing... driving back the bloodlust a little bit.
He stalked closer and closer....

Silence greeted him in all directions.... how had the large form of his father become so muffled? If he had been a lesser beast the eary silence may have actually frightened him, but for Demon it actually excited him.
He dulled his own steps, doing his best to ensure they weren't quite so heavy as he trudged forward. The scent in the air had changed..... it was... fresher? It took him a moment to consider what that meant, but then he realised the truth of it.... he was close to the exit!
Excitment at victory being so close made him hasty, he rushed forward, turning towards the delicious scent.
He was going to win!

His son was too eager as always, the distraction of the air had been enough to force the young colt to forget what was happening..... if he believed he would get away with that then he had another thing coming.
Gishoni followed, stalked and inched ever closer to the now unsuspecting stallion..... soon he was within biting distance, and unlike Demon Gishoni did not hesitate, he simply bit down on the colts rump.
His large fangs penetrated flesh, muscle and blood.... oh the delicious blood..... for a moment it sent him into a frenzy, he turned his head forcing his fangs to tear at the wound opening it more. The delicate aroma filled the air. Clogged his sences until he could think of nothing else.... just blood..... blood.... blood.... BLOOD!

Demon knew in a flash of a moment that he had been foolish, the pain in his rump rippled through his entire body and erupted as a wailling scream of agony and annoyance. He turned just as his father began to tear open the wound, the combined action forcing the fresh wound to sting on rip more.
With a roar of agony he shifted his rump out of his fathers reach, the smell of his own blood filled the air and sickened him. He growled low in his throat and snapped his head forward to his father. "Back off old man!" He could see that his fathers eyes had narrowed, focused in on their target.... him!
In that moment he knew he had truely underestimated his father and the true nature of a Kalona.... he realised he did have much to learn..... but first..... he needed to escape. Even though his own anger and bloodlust were threatening to bubble up the scent of his own blood was keeping them at bay. He could kill his father.... wanted to kill his father.... but after what he had seen he was starting to realise that such a feat would take much more than Demon had anticipated.
However, he would have revenge! He would get his father back for his insult! He would show him!
With another flash of his teeth and a growl he turned, brushed his wings on the ground and walls to disturb dust and dirt before spreading them as wide as the cave allowed and pushing all the debre towards his father. A wall of dust rose up and seperated the pair as Demon took the opportunity to escape.
Hooves heavy in the ground once more he started to run, following the scent of fresh air. It was hard to find now, his nose filled with dirt and dust.

Gishoni licked his lips as he stared at his son. His mind was sizing up his opponant, deciding on his weakness and the best way to have more of that delicious blood.....
The vein in Demon's neck called to him, so rip and for the taking. He snapped his head forward just as Demon acted, a cloud of dust whirled towards him. Clogged his sences, blinded him.
He roared in agony and at the pain of losing his prey.
Blindly he pushed himself forward, desperate for a glimpse of his target and to be free of the dust clinging to him like a second skin. "COME BACK HERE!" He roared.
If he had been thinking straight he would have been proud of his son for his trick... but as it stood, he was simply pissed.

Demon heard his father roar, and it took every ounce of strength in his body not to look back.... he had never considered himself a quitters... but then the game was to get to the exit? Right? He had lost track, the nature of his blood was bubbling.... all but begging him to go back and finish off what his father had started. His rump stung like a b***h, but he was doing his best to ignore it as he raced closer and closer towards the fresh air.
He ran for what felt like an eternity, the muscles in his legs burning.

"DEMON!" he cursed, racing ever closer to his son despite being blind. He kept crashing into the walls, had hit his head several times on low ceilings and had taken to feeling his way with his wing tips on the wall... but still he did not slow. Like a cat from hell he raged and roared with all his strength and might towards his son and the looming exit.
He supposed his son would win their wager afterall? Unacceptable.
Gishoni was not a forgiving stallion.... and the incident with the dust had angered the beast within him.
His son was doing nothing to muffle his footsteps now, simply ran full pelt.... could Gishoni turn that into his sons downfall?
His eyes stung but he ignored them, focused on the darkness, allowed his hearing and touch to take over. There were two tunnels that lead to a wide entrance cave.... maybe he could cut Demon off?
Decision made he turned swiftly to the left and the slightly longer of the two tunnels, but he had an advantage.... he knew were he was, his son was still trying to figure that out. Using his wings and all the muscles in his legs he rushed forward.

Demon ignored his father's call. Annoyed he just pushed forward, he could smell the fresh air.... the only problem? The pain in his rump was shifting to his leg, sending spikes of pain with each movement and although he couldn't tell for sure he was almost positive it was slowing him down.... definatly NOT a good thing.

Gishoni didn't stop, he simply continued stomping down his path in an effort to beat Demon to the entrance. He wanted to roar in fury, to shred his son to pieces to simply teach him a lesson.... but that would come when he reached him, yes..... that would come.
Soon he rounded the last corner, he couldn't see but he knew that... the air felt different, it wasn't stagnant but instead fresh and despite being blinded for the time being he could make out bright lights and several shadows, nothing clear but he knew he was at the entrance. He turned his whole body to block it and called into the direction he estimated his son was in. "Now that is a good Demon... come and give your father a hug." He snarled.

Demon hesitated, he had been so close to the light... he was sure of it, yet now it was gone. He stopped and growled deep in his throat..... he had escaped worst prisons than this! Lana'thel had kept him chained up, and he had some how managed to escape her not once by twice! Surely he could escape here.....
Once again the lessons of his mother, even if they did appear to be generally useless when put into practise, brute strength seemed to work better... yet right now he was not in a situation to try that. So... manipulation, trickery... foal play! He smirked, trying to remember what he needed so that he could find his way out of this hell hole of a lesson.
Silently he stalked his way to the wall of the cave, his wing tip touching it with a gentle flutter causing him to stop. He moved his hooves lightly on the ground looking for a loose rock.

Silence greeted him, something that usually didn't bother Gishoni except right now he wanted to get this lesson over with, teach his son that he could not get the better of him so easily. It sounded simple enough but the reality was appearing far more difficult.
He grunted and stilled himself, all he needed to do was focus... if he listened hard enough he would hear a sound. There was only him and his son in the cave, or at least the immediate section, for their presence alone was enough to scare all others away.
And so Gishoni played the patience game. He waited.

Finally Demons hoof met with something loose. He had to resist letting out a breath of victory and relief, that would spoil the trick and give away his position. As careful as he could in the near darkness he leaned his head down and attempted to pick up the object with his teeth.
It took several attempts, each time Demon was sure his father had heard him.

Gishoni's ears twitched. He could hear a few scraping sounds but the hollow cavern was making it difficult to pinpoint a location.... and so he listened for a breathing, or a heartbeat. Although his son hid his fear and panic well he was sure the boy would have an excellerated heartbeat. Again he couldn't hear anything.... Demon was too far away.
With a grunt of defeat he turned to plan B. Wait until his son messed up.

Demon had a firm grip around the stone, it was hard in place but covered in dirt in others. The taste was foal in his mouth.... he was a flesh eater, but he did his best to ignore it.... he could wash his mouth when this was all done.
With a toss of his head he tossed the stone as hard as he could to the opposite wall, he wasn't trying to miss his father but instead caused a distraction.
Sure enough, a moment later there was a loud CRASH! that echoed and rebounded off the walls. He waited, looking to where the entrance of the cave roughly was.... now he just had to hope his father fell for his trick long enough for him to escape.
One.....
Time seemed to be ticking by so slowly, but Demon tried to remain calm and patient.
Two.....
Still no movement, but he knew it had litterally been a second since the sound had erupted in the cave, the aftermath of which was still rumbling around them. He knew what his father was doing.... assessing the situation, something Demon would of done as well.
Three.....
