He twitched his ears, his mind returning to days long gone as he tried to recall who had done the braiding on his mane and tail, when he realized a two-legger had done that. It was a young girl... what did Aruna call her... ah, Miakoda. He returned to the present as Ringlet's voice pierced through his recollections.
"It is all right," he soothed.
When she laughed, he only looked at her in confusion until he realized why she was laughing. He only rolled his eyes at her, but other than smiling slightly, he did nothing else. His ears twitched, however, when he heard a voice.
"Did you hear that?"
He looked around, and frowned when he heard the same sound again. It was human speech...
Miakoda stumbled along the forest as she went in search for her bonded Soquili. All of them had officially decided to live in random places around the lands, so she had made it her mission to locate each and every one of them.
She was slight in built, very athletic, intelligent, around her teens--perhaps 17-19 years old--and was an outcast, but she was loved by many Soquili and cared about them deeply. They were her only friends aside from her few humans friends, like Krouw and... well, she hadn't thought about that guy in a long while, but he had been kind to her.
She took note of where she was before proceeding, discovering Windflame's tracks (he must have been exceedingly careless for some reason) and following them carefully.

She looked around when Windflame said if she had heard something...hmm no she didn't hear anything really but Windflame apparently had sharper hearing then she had she hadn't practiced that much either. She walked up to his side and puffed his neck lightly with her nose.
" Hm no i didn't hear anything...is it someone here? "
It was probably not that odd that someone from her hew herd was looking for her she just hoped it wasn't Taroji he would freak out specially if he saw Windflame first he was already botherd that all males was bigger then him and it wasn't better that Windflame was a Kalona..she sighed and looked up at Windflame she couldn't help that she liked him he was just so perfect.
The man pulled back some of his brown greyish long hair and took a jump over a bigger rock where could she be? he knew he had seen her traces not far from here what if something happend? this forest use to be safe but he knew that Rin wasn't that aware of all the danger around her.
Then he found some other traces of another much bigger soquili it looked like maybe she met someone? a new friend perhaps?
" Rin! come on show yourself "

He shook his head, thinking perhaps he was hearing things when he heard the familiar sound of his two-legger friend. He straightened a bit, nuzzling Ringlet before he did so, and moved in front of her. Miakoda was coming from this direction, his gut instinct told him... and then the sounds of another two-legger made him flinch. That human was coming from behind them... Oh dear.
"I think there IS someone here," he said, tense. "It sounds like a male two-legger. I smell my own human coming, but she is farther away from us than that other two-legger."
He didn't like male two-leggers very much; they usually hunted his cousins or tried to kill his kin, the Kalona, and often times he usually stayed away from them (the only human he ever showed himself to was Miakoda) and usually he would be inside his cavern home if he heard the sounds of a male human but Ringlet, his innocent love, was here, and he wasn't about to abandon her. No, he would protect her, and if he had to, he'd die as well if that human male was dangerous. His nostrils flared; the two-leggers were almost here.
Miakoda noticed the unusually large hoofprints of a Kalona and hid a laugh. Windflame was being strangely careless, she noted, because it was usually hard to find him. She also noticed the tracks of much smaller hooves; female, and from the way they looked, a Wind type Soquili. She frowned. Was Windflame hunting other Soquili? No, these tracks didn't indicate any chasing or anything, and Windflame in his bloodlust mood usually had an imprint of a hoof that could shatter boulders...
Sighing, she decided to just call out to him to let him know she was coming; she figured that by now Windflame had probably caught her scent. "Windflame!" she called out. "Bloodrider, you know I'm coming! I hope you haven't gotten in trouble." She didn't want to go into detail how she found out what his name was; she shuddered as she remembered first encountering him; it was so sudden and surprising and creepy she had nearly screamed before she realized he wasn't trying to kill her.
Well, Kalona were unpredictable, and when she first saw him his mane and tail were such a mess she couldn't help but fix it for him. He'd shown appreciation by leading her to a tree filled with the most delicious apples she'd ever tasted. "Windflame!"

Then she flicked her ears as well he was right someone or well more then one human was approching them oh Bhavesh was probably one of them he probably got worried about her and went looking for her. Ok the situation got a little more nervous now because she knew Windflame wasn't taht use to humans..
" Yes i hear someone as well...but i think the male you are sensing is Bhavesh he is the human i live with together with 3 other soquili's...he is very nice "
But who was the other? she had no idea not taht many humans lived around her home. She looked up at Windflame maybe he knew? Her hair was still wet and small water drops was dripping down on the ground beneath her. Should she call out for Bhavesh he probably recorginzed her voice now.
Bhavesh felt a little tense something wasn't really right here something was making him feel odd maybe someone else was with Rin? maybe she was in danger maybe that is why she didn't call out to him. He bite his lower lip a little he got more and more worried for every minute but he kept walking..
" Rin i know you are somewhere around here...you better not be hurt "
He almost tripped on a rock he was passing because he only concentrated his eyes on the area around him and not on the ground. He had noticed other footprints as well maybe she met someone?

Windflame flicked his ears back and forth as he tried to listen carefully, feeling extremely uncomfortable with the thought that the strange human might think he attacked Ringlet, because Ringlet mentioned that the strange two-legger was a human she knew. The other two-legger was a human he knew... and boy, was this going to get awkward.
"Bhavesh?" he repeated, blinking down at her. "If that's your human, then the other human is a friend of mine; her name is Miakoda."
He tried to relax by breathing in Ringlet's scent, but that did nothing to ease his fears. He was worried that Ringlet's bonded would think he attacked his lover, which in turn would make him feel threatened, which would lead to him going through his blood-lust mood, which would then cause trouble for Miakoda, Ringlet, and the other human... and...
He frowned at himself as he tried to stop his thoughts. He knew that sometimes he looked through at situations far too deeply, and perhaps Ringlet's human wouldn't think of Windflame as a threat... he hoped. "Are you sure one of the humans is this... Bhavesh?" he asked. "Because I recognize the other human's scent; it is most definitely my human Miakoda."
She stumbled across a huge tree root (she wasn't sure how she missed seeing it; it was so big), but passed it off as her being slightly clumsy, as usual. Seeing as the area was basically silent (well, birds and such were making their own usual noises, but that was besides the point), she heard the sounds of another Indian.
Hearing the sounds of another Indian made her freeze for a moment. She wasn't used to being around others, and the few that she was close to usually were Indians whom her own Soquili interacted with, and she felt comfortable because they did and because they felt safe.
However, she didn't know if this other Indian was safe or not; Windflame might be in danger, or it could be other way around. Frowning, she hurried, quickly following Windflame's footsteps, afraid to call out his name this time for fear it would alert the other human to his presence.

Ringlet just rememberd she didn't answerd his question so stupid of her and embarrasing. And now the situation had gotten a little weird well she better say it before the other two came or else she would be to nervous to say it...she leaned closer to him and wisperd.
" I answer yes to your qustion before...sorry my human Bhavesh got me a little confused when his scent appeared "
She smiled and blushed, her cheeks was now light pink but she was glad she answerd his question now it felt much better she was going to be Windflame's mate that was just awsome! specially when she get to be with someone like him for the rest of her life..
" Oh Bhavesh well i am sure it's him~~ i know how he smells and walks so no worries ok Windflame "
Bhavesh had a hard time reaching them he got stuck in branches and things the he otherwise never would have done. So he had to stop to take care of that before he could continue. After a while he could spot something yellow ahh it had to be Ringlet she was safe...he felt really happy.
But wait there was another soquili here as well and it was...it was. Bhavesh cleared his troat it was a kalona he never saw one before he had just heard about them. How could Ringlet know someone like him Rin was so innocent to hang out with a guy like him..

Stiff and tensed due to being discovered by a strange human as well as worried about Ringlet, his thoughts turned to earlier question before the humans' scents had hit his nose. Why... why hadn't she answered him? He mentally crushed his depression, deciding he could worry about it later. And then, Ringlet's whispered words filtered through his mind, making him feel too shocked to do anything else...
...His tensed body began to relax as the emotion called love filled his entire being, and before he knew it, he was nuzzling Ringlet gently, carefully... lovingly. "My mate," he breathed, enjoying the softness that was Ringlet. As a result, however, he missed her next words, and with the scent of the male human entering the area, he immediately turned around to address the new... hopefully not... threat.
She finally found a better, easier path to travel before she saw something black out of the corner of her. Gleeful, she quickly entered the area, only to discover Windflame was standing protectively in front of a bright yellow Wind mare.
This puzzled her greatly since she knew Windflame never stood that close to any particular Soquili, not even the ones he felt safe with (her other Soquili). Did that mean...? And then she spotted the other human. She twitched. Another Indian? Here?
Windflame's and the mare's back were toward her, while they stood looking at the other Indian. She hoped nothing bad happened...!

She looked up at Windflame so he was happy after all..she was glad he looked happier when she told him yes to his question she could never turn him down she was deeply inlove with him already. She stroke her soft nose over his neck and patted him with one of her colorful wings.
" Yes i am your mate dear~~ "
Then she looked to both sides apparently the two humans had reached them and Bhavesh looked rather shocked the poor man couldn't really understand what she was doing with Windflame how could she explain this to him and the others? She had no idea but she hoped they wouldn't hate Windflame.
Bhavesh just stood there starring for a while he didn't felt angry anymore just shocked and that other black soquili looked rather goofy first he snuggels up to Rin and then he seems to change his mind. He blinked with his deep blue eyes and took a few steps closer to them..
He hadn't noticed the other girl at all he was still shocked over finding Rin with this stallion. And he was so hudge that mad him realized that Taroji was very small to be a male.
" Umm Rin are you ok? "

Windflame felt so much better... lighter even... now that Ringlet was his, and he, hers. It just felt... right. Of course, when both the humans he had sensed earlier both appeared, he sighed. Perhaps Miakoda would be willing to share information and help to better explain the situation. He did not feel up to letting Ringlet get near this male human until he was confirmed as not a thread.
"Are you sure... nothing bad will happen...?" he asked again, worry dripping from him. Usually, he did not show any emotion, or if he did, it usually meant he was mocking his adversary. He narrowed his eyes at the human male, but made no move to indicate he was going to attack. If the human so much as proved he was going to hurt Ringlet, or something crueler, he would attack.
"Windflame!" Miakoda finally said, breaking the silence that had resulted after the other human had spoken. "I've been looking everywhere for you! And look at what you did to your mane and tail again!" she scolded, deciding she'd feel better once she got Windflame's attention. Thank goodness it worked, because her Kalona turned to look at her... was it her, or did he look like he was... worried? She blinked, and then look around for Windflame's things. How on earth he managed to take away his braid and remove his things was beyond her, but he'd managed, at least, to get his leggings and necklaces all back on.

Ringlet decided to greet her human friend instead of just standing there next to Windflame he was the best human she had get to know so he would never do anything to hurt someone he cared about. Ringlet smiled and walked over to Bhavesh...she puffed him lightly with her nose.
Sadly Bhavesh couldn't talk to animals like that human girl that use to hang around him latley so she couldn't really explain to him what happend and why she was here..
" Yes nothing bad will happen...i am sure he is just surprised that he is seeing me with a kalona nothing more "
Kalona's where still feared by many creatures.
Bhavesh smiled as well and patted the small winged female on her neck she was ok so he guessed that that kalona was no threat after all he just seemed to like Rin but who didn't she was always so sweet and carring.
" Hey Rin...so who is your new male friend? he seems really protective "
He said and laughed lightly. Then he looked a little shocked when he heard someone else speak oh there was another human here? he peeked out behind Ringlet and saw a human girl oh who was she? maybe the black stallion was hers?
" Oh hallo there...do you know these two soquilis? "
He smiled and made a greeting gesture with one of his hands. He hoped there wasn't any problem going on around here he was just comming to get Ringlet.

He watched as his newfound lover and mate greeted the male human, before he heard the loving-somewhat-annoyed-scoldings of Miakoda fussing over his hair. He wanted to roll his eyes at her nonsense, but only nuzzled her gently on the head before he turned to eye the other human. He could tolerate two-leggers for only so long... Miakoda was the only one he would allow to be near him, and at the moment, all she was doing was rebraiding his mane and tail, and fixing his... decorations. Darkened thoughts filled with worry battered at the edge of his mind as he stared at the human called Bhavesh. He was jealous; jealous that there was some others important to Ringlet, and he wanted to be the only one important to her. "I only hope you are correct, my beloved..." he answered, after a long moment's hesitation.
Sighing with satisfaction when she finished doing Windflame's mane and tail as well as reaccessorizing him properly, she turned to look at the other Indian, decidedly a few years older than her. A little timid, she somewhat smiled at him. She understood Soquili a lot better than most others, but only by so much. "I don't know that mare you're petting, but this stallion is... a friend of mine." She had almost said Windflame was hers, but he was a wanderer, and the only Soquili she truly had a bond with was her first Soquili, Hania. She was able to befriend other Soquili, yes, but they were not hers, for they only accepted her because they knew she would never do anything to harm them. "This stallion's name is Windflame Bloodrider. He comes from a herd of Kalona who have cut themselves off from our modern ways." She glanced over to the pale, yellow Wind mare. "And who is the pretty lady? ...Um, I'm Miakoda, by the way. Pleased to meet you..." she said nervously.

Ringlet watched the stallion in the corner of her eyes what was he thinking? she still didn't know Windflame that well even if she agreed to be his mate he had many secrets and she hoped she could deal with them. She smiled and nipped at Bhavesh shirt she was happy to see him he was always so nice but Bhavesh was the first human she met she didn't have any negative experience from them at all so that female human had to be nice as well...and she knew Windflame.
She decided to walk over to great the other human as well and so she did. She bowed down her head and nipped at the girls hair real light as a hallo.
" Do you know this girl well Windflame? "
Bhavesh watched the girl fix the stallions hair he had really long hair but all soquili's where amasing even if they where kalona's or not. Then he stroke a hand over Rin's curley hair and then she decided to strut away to greet the other human. Heh she was always so sweet almost to sweet.
" Ah well this is Ringlet she is one of those soquili's i live with and it was a really intreresting name that stallion has "
It sounded really strong but that suited that dark stallion. Then he bowed.
" Oh please to meet you as well "

He flicked his ears as he resumed his comfortable stance with all his items and his braids as he tilted his head in a silent 'thank you' at Miakoda, who looked at the ground nervously. He didn't like the male human for the simple fact that he took some of Ringlet's attention away from him, but he would deal with it for now since his own human pet was here.
"Yes, I know her well, Ringlet," he replied softly. If he spoke any louder the male human would probably jump, thinking he'd try to attack them all or something along those lines. "Since my human is here, though, I believe it's time for me to go, Ringlet," he added.
Miakoda smiled as the Wind mare came over to nibble on her hair, which she took was a hello and petted Ringlet. She was glad to have finished doing Windflame's hair; sheesh, the guy knew how to cause trouble, but she didn't do anything to make him angry since it would cause her death.
"Oh, well, hello, Ringlet," she said, nodding to Bhavesh. "Yes, but I can't explain how or why he's named that, or how I knew he was named that. It's one of those mysteries of the Soquili world." She blushed slightly when he bowed, and then executed a kind of bow of her own to show respect, since he was older.
"I came here to find Windflame to bring him back home... so, uh, Windflame, say goodbye to Ringlet and Bhavesh--nicely--before we go."

Ringlet looked a little sad when Windflame said it was time for him to go they just agreed to be mates and he was leaving already? she sighed but he was probably right he should go back with his human friend and she should probably head back with Bhavesh as well.
The other in her home probably wounderd where she went as well. But she didn't regret staying here with Windflame at all or else she wouldn't have noticed that she as in love with him or all the other romantic moments.
It almost looked like Ringlet would be in her own little pink world at the moment when she tought of the romantic moments with Windflame...then she blushed and walked over to nuzzle Windflame some before he left..
" I hope to see you again soon...i will miss you "
Then she stroke one of her wings over Windflames back before she walked over to Bhavesh side.
Bhavesh nodded well it was a strong name it sure did fit the stallion very well and all soquili's where a big mystery he wouldn't have found out the soquili's names that lived with him if not his female friend had told him. She could talk with animals he could not.
" Maybe we see eachother again it was nice to meet you and Windflame "
He smiled and then glanced over at the stallion before he slowley started to walk back to the teepee with Ringlet.
" Goodbye! and take care of eachother "
Bhavesh said gently and then they left.

He didn't like the idea of separating from his mate, but it had to be done... he'd come find her again soon, that was a promise. He knew that Ringlet's newfound friends and family were probably worrying and wondering where she was so he had to let her return with her human.
"We will see each other again," he said with certainty. "I will long for your company as well... I will miss you, too..." he said, hiding a shiver of pleasure from Ringlet stroking one of her wings on his back. He gave her a quick, affectionate nuzzle before he turned to follow Miakoda.
She nodded and waved as she led the way out of the forest. "Bye! It was nice to meet you both. Take care of yourselves." Though she could speak with animals, it was very limited and usually she could only understand when they introduced themselves and thus, she learned their names. Of course, she had a few Soquili she'd named herself but most of the Soquili she knew already had their own names. Grinning at Windflame, who was walking beside her, they left the area.
