Punk acknowledged the other male's warning, then headed down the path. His pace was a little hurried, but slow enough where he could watch his step. The last thing he needed was to trip or run into someone. Especially if that person was Cardinal. He could think of few Azrien he wanted to meet less at the current moment.
(( That, and Punk's also braver. So maybe he did something brave--it could have even been something for Cardinal's benefit--and someone saw and praised him for it. Then maybe it got overemphasized and Cardinal got mad and lashed out?
It could've even been a love interest both of them had and Punk won their heart?
Sure. Do you think Nocturne would remember at least the names of her siblings? ))

Nocturne’s slumber was sound and nice until she heard something coming. Strange she rarely saw others. She was near the herd Me’urra was training at. She was going to see him soon, but she didn’t think he would come and find her. At least not so soon. Opening her eyes she blinked a few times trying to get the sleep out. (What a romantic idea. *snorts* Not gonna happen though. The only love CAA has ever had is Shadow’s Fear. He has always loved himself first before her. Though the overpraise could work. *first part of that* Nope all she knew when Me’urra found her was her name ‘Nocturne’ she added the Shaddowspirit later herself. )

Punk carefully picked his way along his desired path, pausing only when he saw something blue among the brown and other autumn colors. As he continued, he found the source of both the color and the quiet noises from its movement: a mare that had been sleeping. He dipped his head. "I apologize for the disturbance." He finished as he raised his head. "I didn't realize you were here."
(( Then maybe they were doing something--I'm assuming something that was supposed to help feed Cardinal's ego--and Punk ends up doing something that gets him overpraised by a spectator/spectators.
Ah, alright. 'Cause Punk's already met Haides. Whether he actually makes the connection, he'll probably make at least a small comparison between them. ))

Nocturne starred at the male for a moment before deciding he wasn’t a threat. He apologized to her and didn’t seem at all hostile. Laying her head back down she proceeded to look like she was going back to sleep. The only thing that may have given her away was one ear was cocked toward the male betraying her wariness. Wondering what the male would do she thought perhaps she might scream to get others nearby to come, but that might only make matters worse so perhaps not the best idea.
(A contest of courage not to flinch or bat an eye in the face of an oncoming attack and CAA flinched while Punk didn’t?
*snorts* good luck with that. If Punk has met Senka I could see him getting the connection right away, but Haides looks like a whole other kettle of tea.)

Punk C.A.B. started moving past her, though he paused to inspect the mare. She barely made a sound, and he saw her ear raised to keep track of him. "You're interesting," he decided aloud. "What's your name?"
(( That works.
And I meant more of the comparison between their attitudes. Both quiet and don't really want to talk to others. ))

The eye closest to him peeked open and her yellow eye glinted out at him. Me’urra had said something similar when he had first met her. It brought back memories that made Nocturne almost smile. “Shadowspirit.” She didn’t bother giving her first name to him. He really wasn’t worth the effort of talking more.
(Fair enough. Noct isn’t really my most social little angel… )

Punk couldn't stop the grin from spreading across his maw. "Shadowspirit, huh? No wonder I didn't notice you sooner." This situation was so familiar. Hadn't Haides acted the same way? "You don't have an *unseen brother, do you?"
(( Aaaand here come the name puns. ))

Why would her name make her not noticeable? Stupid male. “Doubtful. No family.” She didn’t have any blood relatives to her knowledge. All she had in this world was Me’urra. A mate and friend so that was close enough to family right? Or did that count?
(fun~)

"Everyone has a family, even if you don't remember them." Punk shrugged. "That's too bad. I met a stallion a while ago that was looking for his siblings. You two don't look alike, but..." He grinned. "You sure act alike." He blinked and suddenly took a step back, smiling sheepishly. "Ah, I'm probably bothering you... I should get going." Glancing over his shoulder as he passed, he added, "But it was nice meeting you, Shadowspirit."

Yes he was bothering her but most of the time those who bothered her didn’t even stop to think that they were doing just that. It was a pleasant change. “Goodbye.” Nocturne closed her eye and dismissed the male and the conversation from her mind. It didn’t matter if she didn’t remember her family, or even if she had one. They weren’t here and Me’urra was. It was that simple. She slipped into a light sleep waiting for Me’urra to come and visit her like he promised.
(Well that was.. anticlimactic. Still the fact he realized he bothered her and left scored some points with Noct I think. She said goodbye which is more than Me'urra gets some days. : Why must I have such a difficult girl? )

Punk continued down the path, careful not to wander onto a different one. Hopefully Ca wasn't getting too antsy... He pushed through the overgrowth ahead, smiling when he saw a familiar landscape around him. He was close. He broke into a canter as he headed for the cave that he'd made his home.
(( Yeah... though I thought of a way for Punk to make the connection between Nocturne and Me'urra. If Cardinal and Punk have a confrontation, Punk's likely to tell Ca to find "someone safe" and stick with them until he comes to get her. Maybe she chooses Nocturne or Me'urra?
I kinda want to see Nocturne's reaction to someone that's even quieter than her. XD ))

Cardinal’s tail twitched annoyed. Shadow’s fear was supposed to be here by now but she was off and running late. Where had his little rose gotten off to? If she was hurt at all there would be some pain and suffering that would have to be spread around. He wanted to bite and kick something right now.
(Well since Me’urra will be on the path with Noct on the way back I don’t see why not. *may have had that planned out a bit, with either Punk coming back or with Ca fleeing to them.* )

 Punk slowed as he reached home, smiling as he peered inside. "Ca, I'm back," he called inside. His gaze went to his surroundings, however, just in case his little ankle-biter had tried to search for him. His gaze froze on the bright red figure farther up the path. Cardinal. At that moment, he felt weight against his leg. Alarm swelled in his chest. He couldn't let Cardinal see Ca, especially since the other stallion appeared to be in a bad mood. "Ca, there's a mean Azrien nearby," he said quietly to the blanket at his feet. "I want you to go find someone safe and stay with them until I come for you, alright?"Ca huffed, nipping lightly at her adopted father's leg before scurrying into the overgrowth. Now that she'd been given an instruction, she was like a little clockwork soldier, shuffling along until she finished her task.Punk watched his adopted daughter disappear into the bushes, then glanced at Cardinal once more before turning towards his cave again. Hopefully the red Azrien wouldn't see him at all, but if he did, at least Ca would be safe...

Cardinal snorted and paced ripping up the ground wondering where Shadow’s Fear was. The bushes rattling made him stop and look, but not seeing his white rose come out from the leaves he snorted and resumed his pacing. Where was she at? What if one of the other members of the herd found her? Shaking his head out he started to pace around with his wings doing small jerks showing his agitation. His violet eyes scanned the area and noted a small hint of red. Curious he headed toward it. It was a simple red feather much like the ones in his crest. He didn’t think it his though since it was at the entrance to an alcove he had never entered. Hearing noise further in he called out. “My rose?” it would be like her to hide and have him come in after her. His annoyance slowly started to shift toward anticipation.
 Noct was lightly dozing waiting for Me’urra to show. Hearing steps she looked up to see yellow eyes looking at her. Nodding her head she greeted Me’urra glad he could come.

Well, either Cardinal was coming in, or Punk was coming out. Sighing, he moved towards the alcove's entrance. " 'My rose?' That's a strange name to call your ex-partner-in-crime, Card," he said dryly as he came into the other Azrien's view. "Do you have something you want to confess to me, or do you have the wrong alcove?"
Ca continued to wiggle along the path that her adopted father had taken, stopping when she came across two unfamiliar scents. She shuffled over to the closest one, peering at the light blue leg in front of her face. Then, as she always did, the filly clamped her little teeth around the Azrien's ankle. It wasn't a hard bite; she lightly gnawed on the leg for a moment, then suddenly released it. Then she scurried over to the other Azrien, repeating the ankle-biting procedure. She snuffed her satisfaction as she released Me'urra's ankle from her grip. They were safe enough to stay with. She would wait with them.
