To his astonishment, he was... alone! Tess and Tal must have gotten lost someplace along the way. Or maybe they ran off because he talked too much, but that thought didn't really come to mind. Not that it mattered! He was fine on his own, strong, tough, bravest of them all! Teo pranced forward, head held high and chest puffed out, uni-tail swishing behind him idly. Then... something danced across his nose. "Ooh, fireflies!" he giggled and chased after the glowing insects. Opening his glowing mouth, the little colt nabbed a few insects from the sky and began to crunch on them. Something wasn't right... something was going on inside his mouth! An ambush! Oh god no, he had to sneeze...
Before Teo knew what was happening... AHHHHCHOO! Fireflies flew out of his mouth and nose and his eyes watered. Well, he wasn't going to try THAT again! It was then he heard rustling in the bushes, automatically assuming it was Tal or Tess the little colt sighed, "What took you so long?"
Then... the talking started all over again.

  A great heaving sigh sounded out into the evening clearing, the owner of such a sound giving off a slightly bewildered glance into the darkness, little particles of light giving off into the night in pinks and green.
Siblings, were infact, a bit of a pain. Well, that was a bit harsh, they were a pain sometimes, and this just happened to be one of those times. They also seemed to like repeat occurances during the generations - was she like this also, when she was a filly? Or was she just very bad at keeping an eye on her little munchkins? Tess had grown up to be a very self-sufficient stallion - all the times he had gone missing gave him a bit of practice at finding himself, she noted, as she turned to regard the stallion in his corner of the wooded area, his own lights fancying the area around him with his own green and pink shades, his face set in a serious mood.
"Any luck, Tess?" she voiced out into the darkness, eyebrows raising in curiousity. It was nice having a second .. fourth? pair of eyes to looking out with her, when she had lost the other stallion near her she was alone, and if it hadn't been for Dante showing up, she would have been searching still, she was sure. She figured an apology to Jack was needed if she ever finds Teo.A black ear twitched as the voice travelled to him, showing that he did infact hear his sister. Tal's voice was very recognizable, having heard her yell his name many a time as a foal. Turning his head to regard her, he couldn't help but give her a sly smile, his pink hued maw glowing into the night softly.
"For Soothe, dear sister, I'm sure he's not too far; if he's anything like I am, or Jack. Jack is a good hider, an so I'm sure he is too." he voiced out to her, hoping to calm her a little, "Besides, Teo is bright teal, we'll see him from a mile away. If we don't hear him first." he stated, before turning to look under a rock
"Teeo~~, where are you?"

Luck was on his side, the shaking of the bushes wasn't Tal or Tess but it wasn't anything dangerous either. It happened to be a frog, a large bullfrog to be exact, and it was staring up at Teo with huge froggy eyes. Not that he cared, as soon as he'd figured out it was a frog... he decided to engage it in polite conversation.
"It's a very dark night, isn't it?" he asked and the frog croaked, taking that as a reply of sorts, Teo continued, "I think I lost my siblings someplace when I wasn't paying attention. I think it's probably better to stay where I am rather than go find them, the world's a big place and they couldn't have gotten too far. Plus, it's not like it's boring here or anything, I mean I have you for company, right?" The frog made more noise and began hopping away, this upset Teo a bit, "No, don't run away, I can't follow! I just explained that I'd like to stay in this spot until I'm found or someone familiar comes along, I mean it shouldn't be too long!" His efforts were in vain, for the frog had soon disappeared and he was once again... alone...
Didn't matter to Teo though, he was just mildly concerned for his new friend, it was dark and he didn't want him getting lost too. "Well, perhaps his parents missed him or he had some business to attend to, he'll be alright, I know it." Yes, Teo was talking to himself now but... who didn't talk to themselves on occasion. "I wonder when the sun comes up, is it at the same time every day? Maybe it's different every day or... well, maybe not, it seems like it's the same."
He then began to ponder the sun, how it worked and if it was used for anything other than light. His mind was whirling, because of this he seemed to have missed Tess' calling for him. Not that he was really keeping an ear open for someone calling his name, it seemed he was doing more of the opposite. Drowning the sounds of others out with his own voice...
