it had not been that long since they all had come out of their baskets and it seemed already the colt known as Liang was already very vain. tossing his head and struting alogn side his mother and siblings, he was obsessed with keeping himself perfict looking. also it seemed he and his brother had a rivalry going about who was the better looking one. glancing at his brotherhe shot him a arrogant smirk, knowing it would rile him up most likey since it seemed his brother felt he was better than his 'older' brother, which ofcourse he totaly disagreed with.

Everything have been very perfect for this colt ever since he popped out of the basket along with his brother and sister. Its almost like the world is in awe of this newborn god and Xiaodan is determined to keep that image in his head. He believes that he was sent from above to rule the earth and his simple siblings is just the pawns in this entire scheme that is whipped up just for him. He stood by his mother with his chest puffed out in pride and arrogance before his mother began to lead them all to the lake to teach them the finer points of keeping themselves pristine and perfect.

Xiaodan was purposely being kept on the outside and Liang on other because ever since they both got out of the baskets, they have been competitive toward each other. Xiaodan would occasionally shoot his brother a disdainful look and huff when Liang shot him an arrogant look. He rolls his eyes and sticks his nose up in the air as he follows his mother, trying his best to stay ahead of his siblings.

Shimshek ushered her offspring towards her special lake where she would teach her foals how to keep themselves proper. However, she also disapproved of her sons: their rivalry would be the end of them, it would. Such as it was, it came from her, after all. Khepri had more of Taiyaung's appearance, and more personality, though, however, Khepri was the "princess" of the trio, as well as the youngest. Also, she was Shimshek's only daughter: Khepri would be spoiled to death, and Xiaodan and Liang were sure to be protective of their sister. Shimshek had to force the brothers to be on either side of her with Khepri walking in front so that she could keep an eye on her squabbling children. Much as she was proud that her children were already showing some intelligence that beauty truly was something to appreciate, she disapproved how they were going about it. "Behave," she warned, and though she had a gentle voice, there was an underlying threat to it as well.

Khepri was silently laughing at her brothers. They were both such idiots it was tough keeping a straight, beautiful face. Why her brothers had a complex about who looked better was beyond her, especially when it was so obvious she won out on both of them. She was the most beautiful from their batch, and obviously, since she was the youngest, was going to get the best treatment from their mother. It was a strange thought to her if Shimshek loved all three of them equally, which, oddly enough, their mother did. Shimshek loved all three of her children equally, although she complimented and insulted all three of them. But that was all right: that was just how she showed her love, and she would protect them with her life if need be. Their father had taken off on a quick "business" trip, as Shimshek called it, and so the three were left in her care. Khepri smirked as she "led" the way to the crystal lake that their mother often visited; it would become their special "place"... she knew it would be.

Liang still held the smug look on his face as he held his head up proudly but very arrogantly also. struting allong, he had no problems with his sister and it didnt matter to him if she thought she was better sicne she was the girl out of the batch but his brother was another thing. being the 'eldest' child he felt he was the better out of him and his brother but as for his sister she was better only because she was the only girl. flickign his tail he couldnt wait for his mother to teach him how to keep proper apperance.

Xiaodan eyes his sister speculatively before he shrugs. He knows that his sister doesn't count because she is a girl and is guaranteed to be a beautiful female but his brother and him.. is one entirely different story. The colt couldn't help but to feel protective of his sister and the incessant urge to up his brother by being a most handsome colt around. He slants his eyes toward his mother and nods slightly before he smirks at Liang with a knowing smug aura around him. He ruffles his wings before he visibly preens in front of Liang, showing him that he is better at keeping himself clean and beautiful.

"No physical fighting, boys," Shimshek threatened as they reached the end of their walk. "If I see even one speck of disfigurement on either one of you, neither of you will be allowed to play or practice flying." She eyed both of them carefully, making sure she made eye contact to tell them she was serious. "Now, children. Stand here as I show you the proper way to care for your bodies and outer beauty, as well as to shape your own inner beauty so that you shine more beautiful than the stars." She showed them how to polish their hooves by taking some sand and rubbing it at just the right pressure to sharpen them, and then rinsed them slowly in the crystalline waters, where she produced her sparkling silver hooves with pride. She glanced at Khepri and nodded at her daughter's horn. "You only need to rub your horn against your first, dear, to keep it glowing and beautiful. Sand will destroy your horn should you use this particular method, as it only works for hooves." She smiled beautifully at them as she showed her sons how to care for their wings. "Wings are tricky. We have enough feathers that, when together and wetted, they are heavy and difficult to dry. As such, we use a spraying method..."

As her mother's voice droned on about the procedures to care correctly for themselves, Khepri's mind began to wander around as she stared at the surrounding forest. She held deep affection for her brothers, but, like Shimshek, she tended to get exasperated with them as well. But, no matter. Unlike them, she had no rival to worry about, and obviously would grow to be the most beautiful mare ever to have appeared. "Mother, if it so pleases, may I take a bite of that grass over there?" she asked, and once Shimshek gave approval, she wandered away towards the juicy-looking, sweet grass and began to nibble on it. One ear flicked to show that she was somewhat paying attention to her family but otherwise she ignored them.  

[samus x]

" yes mother." was all Liang responded with when his mother told them no physical fighting or misbehave. oh he had no plans of doing any physical fighting as he felt that was just down right beneath him to do plus he had to keep his looks at all times beautiful. ofcourse he paid attention to what his mother was teaching them and even attempted to mimic what she did. ruffling his wings he started fusing over his feathers and wondered why his sister had gone off though right now he wouldnt pay much mind to it for now while he had to fix his feathers.

Xiaodan nods lightly to his mother as he glances at his brother with a smug smirk on his face. He knows that he is the most wonderful son that Shimshek will ever have in her lifetime.. hands down. With that thought firmly lodged in his head, he began to strut around his family in show-off manner but he suddenly stops when his mother began the lessons. His ears perked forward as he listens intently to his mother's voice before he nods slightly at the right part to let her know that he is listening very intently.

Just as his mother showed them how to make their hooves clean and shine, he clumsily tries to clean his hooves and make them shine. After few tries, he managed to perfect the method as he dips his hooves in the water proudly. "Look mama!! I did it!" He exclaims happily as he sticks his little hoof out proudly before he eyes his wings then water suspiciously. He don't want to ruin his perfect wings by messing up. "Mama... can you show us the spraying method along with how to wash our wings?"  

[PhoenixGuardianMikazuki]

Highly amused at her children somewhat, she ignored Khepri for the better part of the day as her daughter seemed perfectly at ease, especially since her sons had to live away from their mother with two different herds. She worried the most for her eldest, as he lived with her hated enemy, Artemis Entreri. However, since Entreri was rarely around the 'herd' that belonged to the human called Samus, that didn't mean much since she knew that once Entreri heard rumor of -her- children he would come without a doubt to kill them. Especially her sons. She glanced over at Xiaodan as he strutted about, making her mouth quirk slightly. "Xiaodan, calm down. I shall show you the spraying method soon. For now, your wings glisten perfectly... as does Liang's. No fighting," she warned, and then glanced around for her daughter.

She hadn't wandered far away, but it was far enough she couldn't hear her family's voices anymore. She was actually on a self-made quest to find her father, whom Shimshek said had gone on a trip for a little while. This made her sad somehow, as Shimshek was a harsh mother, though she had come to appreciate the few times Shimshek was affectionate and kind, as they were rare. It appeared her mother was only this way because she missed her mate (not that Khepri knew that Shimshek and Taiyaung weren't quite yet mates, but that was besides the point). As she pranced along pretending she would find her father hiding just to scare them, her mother's voice made her jump in surprise. "Khepri!" Startled, she didn't see that she had stumbled down a steep hill until it was too late.

(( lol Mika only Dyami, Tori and Khirsah will know my indian persona in rp. all my other soquili roam about on there own away from humans xD))

Liang puffed up and wanted his mothers full attention though if their father hadn't gone his trip he would have most likey been a daddys boy but he like being a mamas boy for now. knowing he would just get into trouble if he cause a fight with his brother, he went off to his sister when she suddenly disapeared behind something. that was odd in his opinion and he wondered if she was just hiding low on the ground. struting over to where he had saw his sister with out even sayign a word he tilted his head. " come on dont play around like this Khepri!"  

[Caitlyn Hellstorm]

Xiaodan noticed that their mother ignored Kherpi for good portion of the day and it concerns her but at the same time, his appearance is number one priority. He flares his perfect wings out as he flutters them before resting delicately against his body. "Where is Kher?" He murmurs as he looks around for his sister and when his mother shouted for Kher, he saw his sister fall down the hill. His eyes nearly bulged out of his sockets as he ran across the meadow toward Kherpri because he doesn't want to see his sister's beauty tarnished by dust and mud.

"Kherpi! Get your tail back up here so we can help you clean yourself again. You clumsy girl.." The colt shouts down to his sister as he stood there next to Liang before he jabbed his brother sharply with his wings. "She wasn't playing, fool!"

[ Time Jump! One month has passed and all three foals have now become beautiful adults! ]

[ *Khepri falling down suddenly happens in an inserted RP where she meets Ochoco. ]

She had struggled with herself and her children to the best of her ability, and that day where Khepri fell off a cliff seemed so far away. She had had a scare when she had flown down to check to see if her daughter was all right, only to find an enormous amount of mud... and no Khepri.

She was happy to have found her daughter again later that evening, safe and beautiful as ever. She had then vowed to herself to never be the cold-hearted mother had been acting like recently. Though she doted on her children now, she felt old age creeping up on her. She was still young yet (thank Epona) but she felt old when she looked at her newly grown adult children.

Her sons were ready to take off and live on their own now, but she hoped they would visit. Khepri had chosen to live with her for the sake of not letting her feel alone because Taiyaung was still doing his duties. Shimshek allowed Khepri to wander about on her own, however; she herself knew that her children couldn't always stay cooped up in one place.

Now, however, she and her daughter were bathing (it was both habit and ritual) as they waited for the boys to return from claiming their territories. "Khepri," she called softly as she washed her wings carefully.

The newly grown, young mare fixed her hair with a simple flip as she smiled appreciatively at her reflection in the gentle, swaying water of the lake. She was, in a word, gorgeous. Yes, she was quite vain, but she couldn't help that. She had learned all her young life that beauty was the essence of life itself. Inner beauty, specifically, but she ignored that in the throes of the glorious feeling of her adult form.

She immediately walked to her mother's side when she was called, though she said nothing for she knew Shimshek needed her concentration when cleaning her wings. Her mother glistened beautifully and all Khepri could do was drip with envy and awe. Shimshek had been doing this sort of thing for a long time and so did everything with an easy grace that belied the storm behind it.

She sighed and nodded when Shimshek finished. "You called for me, Mother?" she said politely, but kindly and lovingly. She wasn't sure on the concept of love yet, but she knew family love, and family held her strongest affection above all else. They were all she knew and had right now, which was why she chose to stay with her mother rather than to move away; she was still nervous about living on her own, truth be told.

Liang landed gracefully in the clearing he had callled home for so long as a foal though now he more often was off on his own but had yet to fully decide to leave and call another place home even if now a days he was goen fore a few days at a time. giving a quick toss of his head to fix his wind blown mane and giving a flick of his tail annd a ruffle of his wings, he walked with purpose to see his siblings and mother. giving one last stretch of his wings, he noticed they where not in the clearign and so he figured they where off at the water cleanign themselfs up and makign themselfs beautiful. grinning, he headed that way and once he knew he was close he called out. " Mother, Sister, brother are any of you around!?" he surely hoped he would find then easly becauseit would be such a damn pain to run around looking for them if they where not close to home but other than that he was loving life as an adult already.  

[Caitlyn Hellstorm]

Xiaodan spent few days after he finally grew up searching for the perfect place to claim as his own home. He found one just right around the 'corner' from his mother's home with forest, a clear river and mountains with a small cave where he could flee from the nasty weather or when he want to catch his beauty nap. A happy sigh escaped his lips as he is done with the marking the markers of the perimeter of his terrority which is HUGE. He stood on the hill with a smirk on his face while he oversees his kingdom.

After a week or so of guarding his kingdom and learning everything about his kingdom so now he finally knows the kingdom like the back of his hoof. Xiaodan began to wonder how his mother and siblings is faring and he decided to pay the visit to them so he spreads his large powerful wings then took off into the air. He flies toward his parent's home and lands in front of his mother and sister. It appears that he is the only one throughly knows his mother and sister's routine. "Hello mother and Khepri.." He smoothly says as he glances over his shoulder. "I think Liang is little bit lost." He smirks idly.
