When Pilgrim reared up, he saw that Thallium did the same and a small twinge of fear raced through his chest because he now finally realized that he is actually going to fight a dragon, not a kalona as he thought. He would kick at the dragon quickly and hard as he could kick when being deadlocked with the dragon. The pain bursts in his sides and stomach as the dragon landed some hits and he gasps alittle bit.
The chestnut stallion spotted the lethal tail swinging toward his stomach from the corner of his eyes, he tried to detangle himself from the fight before he gets stabbed because that tail looks pretty sharp. He knew little bit about kalonas and dragons but not much as he would have liked. Neighs could be heard from his muzzle as he kicks at Thallium, trying to push him away from him. But the tail of the dragon connected with his stomach, inflicting a good-sized wound across his stomach. A hiss of pain escaped his muzzle as he tries to headbutt Thallium so he could back away from the fight.

Thallium felt the blows of hooves from the chestnut and didn't try to avoid them. They drew some blood but otherwise did not bother him. He was accustomed to pain, so a few kicks from a weak lesser stallion did not concern him. He snapped razor teeth at the chestnut's throat as they deadlocked in the air.
He could sense the stallion's fear. He knew it would not be long now. Successfully ripping the stomach open, he now aimed his tail for the chestnut's chest now, aiming to make contact and gouge it deep into his chest. The stallion's efforts to now escape made it a little more difficult to do so, but he kept striking at him regardless.
The headbutt connected and Thallium was slightly stunned. He let go of the deadlock and hooves came crashing to the ground hard. He shook his head angrily, crimson eyes blazing. With the smell of fresh blood in his nostrils he lunged at the stallion once more in a blood rage now, aiming his tail yet again and striking at the chestnut's chest. He knew if he connected, the chestnut was done for and the fight would be over.

As the pain from the belly finally hits him, he staggers back several feet. When he had realized that he had hit the tree that is behind him, he frowns while panting. His legs barely had the strength to keep him up thus the swaying side to side. He looked towards the dragon while his eyes struggled to stay focused.
He knew that his belly was bleeding enough which wouldn't let him be able to move all that much. His pants worsen and his vision blurred. That is when he felt the tail stabbed him in the chest. Suddenly, a loud shriek erupted from his muzzle and his panting got more ragged It was like the world was in slow motion around him, he slowly fell onto his side. "...Zaria.." was the name that was whispered upon the wind like a petal.
As the blood began to spread onto the ground around him, he sways around more struggling to stay on his hooves and his breathing becomes more worse and sounds like he is choking on his own blood. His legs gave out under him and he fell down, feeling like everything is in the slow motion. The loneliness intensifies in his head, almost like it is in union with the pain that is spreading all over his body. A lone tear rolled down his cheek as his last blurry sight was of a dragon bearing down on him before he passed out.

Thallium grinned maliciously watching the chestnut swaying in his weakened state as his tail struck its intended target. The shriek of pain was music to his ears. He dug deep into the stallion's chest, lowering his head as the stallion began to fall to his side. He wanted to be face to face with him, he wanted to watch the light leave his eyes and he wanted this pathetic creature to see him as the last thing he would ever see on this earth.
"Zaria" he repeated. "So thats the mare's name. Well....she must be a smart mare to have left a pathetic waste of flesh like you......I will be the last thing you ever see...you will never see your children...you will never know true love....." he cackled menacingly. "Perhaps I will go find her...." he whispered into the chestnut's ear.
As he saw the tear slide down the stallion's cheek, he knew he had succeeded. He released his tail and pulled it from the stallion's chest, watching a the blood flowed freely and the stallion seemed to lose consciousness.
Toxicity finally stepped out of his place where he had silently watched with pride. A wide grin plastered all over his muzzle at the viciousness his son had displayed in this chestnut stallion's final moments. "Well done my son...you have passed your final test and your training is now complete. Shall we feast?"
Thallium shook his head. "He tastes awful father, I would not recommend eatting him. " He kicked the limp, seemingly lifeless body. "He is as good as dead. Shall we find better food elsewhere? why dine on bottom grade meat when we can have venice?"
Tox walked over to the body, bending a head down and licking the unconscious stallion's chest, where the blood flowed form his son's final blow. His face scrunched in disgust and he backed away. "Perhaps you are right, but this night, you can go celebrate and feast upon the spoils you well deserve. I have other matters to attend to this evening." He spread his wings, but before taking off, he turned and looked at Thallium again, his chest swelling with pride. "I am very proud of you my son. Now all you have left is to find a strong mare to give you strong offspring and continue our line...and your mother's of course. She would be so proud of you if she could see you right now at this moment." and with that being said he took a few running steps and took off into the darkness of the nightsky.
Thallium watched as the dark figure of his father flew away in the nightsky. He was proud to have earned his father's pride and respect. His stomach growled, reminded him he needed to eat. Unmindful of the chestnut's blood covering his chest neck and legs, he too took off into the nightsky, heading for his favorite ledge and hunting grounds.

Isadora have been with Qismah for hours now, just talking and laughing like they usually do whenever they get together. They decided to go to a mountainside forest to explore while catching up with each other on what have been going on since last time they have seen each other. She laughs at something Qismah says as she pushes some branches out of the way for her friend then she froze when she heard blood-curling screams, shrieks and sounds of a body hitting the ground. "Qismah..." She gasps as her eyes widen, not sure what they should do. She instinctively steps in front of her friend and she takes in a deep breath when she heard someone or something taking off into the skies.
"I feel like I need to go this way..." Isadora murmurs as she feels a pull that usually happens when someone is in a dire need of healing that is getting stronger and stronger. "Someone needs me." she looks at Qismah with a worried expression on her face then took off to a clearing where Pilgrim lays with blood pooling around him. "Oh dear.." She gasps as she circles around Pilgrim nervously, not sure if she can save him in time. "Hang on in there, stallion." She whispers as her horn began to glow brightly when she aimed it at his chest wound.

Qismah was enjoying the day. It had been a while since she had seen Isadora but she always laughed til her belly hurt whenever they were together. She considered Isadora to be her best friend. She had been there anytime the mare had needed to laugh cry or a shoulder to lean on.
The sun was just setting when they had set out for the forests on the mountainside. How she loved to explore at night! it was her favorite time. What adventure would they find today she wondered. Perhaps star gazing on the mountain tops? It was then she and Isadora both heard the screams. What on earth?Her ears caught Isadora's gasp. She looked at her friend as she stepped in front of her. "Should we go see what that is? Maybe someone needs help?" She heard her friend;s words and nodded in agreement. "Lets go then. I"m right behind you." Following closely behind Isadora, they came into a clearing. On the ground, she saw a bloodied chestnut stallion, who seemed to be either dead or seriously wounded. She rushed forward to him, her natural instincts to help others kicking in now. She lowered her muzzle to his. "He's alive...but barely. Quick my dear...if you don't heal him now he will die very soon. " She watched as Isadora began the healing process, hoping they had made it in time.

Pilgrim's legs jerked slightly then started to move. He was slowly coming out of his comatose state. "Ugggg...W.. Wh.." He groaned as he tried to move but felt like his body was working against him. He once again tried to speak. "Z... Zaria..I.. I got to.." His ears was the next thing that was starting to move again. He felt tears rolling down his cheeks, feeling like everything was lost in that moment. He then felt someone nearby.. the sounds of hooves that was right by him."..w.. wha..what do.. you.. w..want..?" He struggles to say to the unicorn.
That is when he felt a muzzle and air breathing in and out of that. His vision was still coming back slowly. He looked up towards the other one. "..Ar... Are you my angel? Am.. I going to the other side?" He shakes his head. "I can't.." He whimpered out, wincing at the wounds that was still bleeding and giving him alot of pain. "I.. I ha.. have to find her..Zaria.."

Isadora was just about done with the wound on the chestnut stallion's chest when he began to stir, she uses her soothing voice when she spoke to him, "Stay still, dear. You are gravely injured and I need to heal you. Please let me help you." She kept her voice soothing and gentle when she kept up the commentary as she moves toward the stomach so the stallion wouldn't get spooked. "My name is Isadora and this is my best friend Qismah." She introduces them as her horn glows against the nasty gash in his stomach.
After healing the stallion's stomach wound, Isadora is covered in a sheen of sweat and shaking from exhaustion but she wanted to keep going until all of the wounds she could see is healed. "Almost done, stallion." She moves her head in the stallion's line of vision with a reassuring smile at him before she goes back to healing all of the wounds. It feels like a hour have gone by after she healed that chest wound, Isadora is finally done with the healing and she sways little bit from sheer exhaustion as she moves away from Qismah and Pilgrim. "How are you feeling now, dear?" She looks at him with almost dazed look on his face.
"We need to find a way to get water and berries to him, Qismah..." Isadora murmurs as she looks around for a way to bring the water over without it dripping all of the way. "I will be back." She smiles tiredly at her best friend as she moves toward the edge of the forest to hunt down a large bowl-like leaf so she could gather the berries and 'drown' them in the water.

Qismah watched as Isadora healed each wound. She knew this was a big job for her friend and she would be very tired after. She would have to be on the look out and keep an eye on both of them. Isadora would surely need some rest. Her eyes met the chestnut's as he looked at her. She smiled at his question. Zaria? She wondered if perhaps it was his love? or perhaps a family member?
"Shhhh rest. We can talk later dear, for now, just close your eyes and concentrate on a happy memory. You're going to be ok now...we're here. you're safe." She smiled softly at him, staying where she was since it seemed to comfort him. Looking up at Isadora, she could tell this was having an exausting affect on her, her splotched coat glistening in sweat.
She nodded at Isadora's request and remained with the stallion as her friend left to find water ad berries. "Isa....make sure you get enough for yourself as well...You are gong to need rest after this. I can watch over both of you."

Pilgrim's body was covered in sweat and blood due to the shock and the wounds. He winced slightly when he felt the wounds were slowly being healed... He didn't know what was going on. He had never knew that an unicorn could do such a thing. It goes to show him that he didn't know every thing in this world. He then heard the soft angelic like voice, calming down rather quickly. It seemed like he had to do what she wanted but didn't know why. He winced once more and then looks towards her with blurry eyes. "..Th.. The name is Pilgrim." He tried to smile. "Th.. Thank you so much for.. he.. helping. I don't deserve you two angels." The more he wanted to stay awake, the more struggles he was facing. His thoughts to his body were, "Damn it.. No.. not now.. I.. I want to meet her.. What is going on...Z.. Zaria.....Angel.." He paws the ground lightly, trying to stay calm but is fighting his body even more. He did a hard swallow to fight the dryness in his mouth and throat. But when he tried to get up, that is when he wince even more. He let out a pained yell. "I.. I need to find.. her, Angel.. Zari.. Zaria.. my.. son's mother.."His ears flicked, taking in the words of the mare "..I'm.. gonna be.. ok?" He slowly passed out again due to losing his energy to stay focused.

Isadora nodded at Qismah's statement before she moved off toward the edge of the forest, but she could see that the stallion is still in so much pain and is still woozy but she have given the stallion everything she have so if she gave him more, she will probably be laying next to him dying. Her legs trembles violently as she found a bowl like leaf that is big enough for her to gather water for the stallion and berries and she grits her teeth while she determinedly goes deeper into the forest where she have spotted a stream with line of bushes full of berries there.
Dropping to her knees with bone-jarring impact in front of the stream, Isadora struggled to stay conscious while she drank deeply and desperately like it will be her last drink for very long time. Cold water ran down her throat as Isadora breathes heavily, seeing the black dots floating in and out of her vision and she whispers to herself, "Not now.. not now..." She takes in a deep breath as she dunks the leaf under the water with her hoof after she stood up shakily. Gritting her teeth, Isadora pulls the water-laden leaf out of the stream and that is a HUGE challenge to her in weakened state. Her eyes blurring as she spots an night sky-colored alicorn running toward her while her body just collapses to the ground. "Berries. Put them in the leaf and take it to the clearing behind me to a laying stallion and mare tending to him." Isadora managed to says huskily before she completely collapsed from the exhaustion.
Katilana swiftly moved to the mare's side before the mare's body could hit the ground with the full hard impact, easing her down while her white horn flares up, feeding the mare some energy to stay conscious. "Stay there." She simply says as she quickly gathered the berries for the mare without knowing why she is helping this one out. Dumping the berries in the water laden leaf, the alicorn dragged it out to the clearance carefully but swiftly because she doesn't want to stay around longer than she have to.
She spotted the pair the fallen unicorn was muttering about and she places the leaf full of water and berries in front of them. "I will be back with your friend." Her voice is soft and almost lyrical. Katilana went back into the forest where Isadora is sitting on the ground, clearly exhausted but managed to stay awake with the energy Katilana 'fed' her. "Come on. Let's get you up." She says in an emotionless manner as she helps Isadora up, occasionally having to nudge the female up with her head.Isadora felt her eyes roll back in her head as she began to fall to the ground but felt someone hastily keeping her up, she tries to express her gratitude but she was too exhausted to do that simple action. A short and sudden burst of energy filled her body as she managed to stay awake while laying on the ground, watching the night-sky colored mare with mane and tail streaming behind her like fire bustles around gathering the berries, and dragging the laden leaf out to Qismah and that stallion.
With a sigh, the unicorn closes her eyes briefly knowing that her mate will be really annoyed with her for risking herself for a random strange stallion she doesn't know. As she opens her soft blue eyes, the mare is back and is watching her with those seemingly soulless eyes with golden pupils, Isadora refrained an apprehensive shiver as the mare approached her. "Thank you." Isadora softly says as she struggled to stand up with the mare's help and they slowly made over to Qismah and the stallion.
Isadora felt the mare feeding her little more of the energy to tide her over while she rests up and she turns around to express her heartfelt gratitude but the mare is gone, just like a ghost. The last thing she saw was the mane and tail colored like fire streaming up into the skies. She looks at Qismah as she slowly lays down. "I am tired..." She murmurs as she laid her head down, struggling to keep her eyes open so she can keep a watch over them while fully knowing that she can't defend them because she is too weakened by the massive healing.Katilana swore the trip from the forest to the clearing took forever when she was helping the exhausted unicorn return to the pair and it doesn't help that she doesn't feel very comfortable around soquilis she is not familiar with at all. She had to 'feed' the mare several short bursts of healing energy during their 'trek' so the unicorn won't collapse again and the second they arrived there, she nudged the mare little bit. Satisifed that the mare can stand on her own without the support, she dips her head little bit toward Qismah whom seemingly to be the only fit one of the trio.
"She need sleep." She simply says in her lyrical voice then she turns around, taking off running with her wings spreading out. She took off flying into the skies with her mane and tail streaming behind her and not even once did Katilana looked back at the trio as she disappears among the clouds.
