Welcome to Gaia! ::

Vengeance had left his old master on the ground, his life force draining at a steady rate from his body. He had done to the man what the man had done to Sky. He was no longer that horse. Sky was dead, and so was his master. The master that had left him to die and betrayed him. He would no longer trust man, no longer idolize him.

With little thought for anything but his hatred for man, the stallion had left the clearing, making his way back to where they had arrived from hell. He wasn't sure where anyone else had gone or if they had even moved far yet. Wherever they were he would find them.

As vengeance neared the place of his rebirth he thought he could hear the others. Good, they hadn't left yet. It would be a bother for him to have to chase them down. Now where were the two who had led them out? He was sure they were bound to be the alphas and he needed to befriend them quickly before anyone else. He would get ahead and rise to the top. Even in death and rebirth he was still ambitious.

As the stallion came into view of the herd he spotted Thanos first. Well, he did need to meet both of the leaders but one at a time would probably be best. If he could at least weasel into one of their good graces it would be a start.

He slowed down a little and made his way over to the black stallion. Now that he could actually get a good look at the stallion, Vengeance noticed just how bad of shape the leader was. However many years in hell had not been kind on him for whatever reason. What had the stallion done to warrant such a beating in hell? Vengeance supposed the pain and torment that he himself had suffered had been no where near as bad. Although he only retained bits of fragmented memories.

Once he reached Thanos he came to a stop. When they were in hell he had known of the stallion and knew who he was. Back then he hadn't had any emotion and had honestly not cared. Now he wished he had spent more time with him.

"Hello Thanos." Vengeance greeted the Alpha. He wasn't entirely sure how he would continue, but he at least needed to greet his leader.

Vengeance stood quietly as he awaited Thanos' reply. "No, they bore me." He spoke simply when the leader had. The others were a bore to Vengeance. None of them would help him get to the top. He wanted power. Not alpha though, no that was too much responsibility that he didn't want. Maybe beta though.

The gray stallion fidgeted a bit as he watched Thanos think. What if the stallion turned him away? He supposed he could come back and try again later but there would be only so many chances before the black stallion would finally start to ignore him completely and he couldn't have that. At the moment Vengeance was in a delicate situation. If he said anything wrong who knows what would happen. Vengeance wanted power, however, if Thanos thought that he wanted his power, who knew what would happen? He couldn't let him think that.

"I thought you might like some company." Oh wait, "Well, perhaps some company in your own species." He said as he nodded toward the rats that sat on Thanos. Personally, Vengeance wasn't sure why he kept them around. It's not like they actually did anything.

Vengeance stood patiently, trying not to fidget too much. However, he only became more nervous when Thanos started to mumble to himself. No fighting? Was that what he had said? That didn't make any sense to the stallion at all. None of the others were doing anything at all, that's why they were so boring. Maybe he ought to pick a fight? Yes, that could be fun, but then again if Thanos didn't want any fighting that would likely just put the stallion on his bad side. No, he sighed a little to himself, he probably shouldn't start a fight.

The gray stallion was just about to speak up again when the rats began moving around and one even started squeaking, what seemed quite madly in his direction. Had he actually offended them? Up until now he wasn't even sure they could understand anyone, I mean, it wasn't like either of them could talk.

After Vengeance took his mind off of the rats he then turned back to Thanos. "I uh, I'm sorry about that. I didn't mean to upset them, to be honest I didn't even know they could hear me." Apologizing to Thanos first would be the best course of action, after that he could work on trying to get into his good graces. He still wasn't sure what he was going to do or say, perhaps that hadn't been such a good idea.

Hmm, so the rats could hear the rest of them. He didn't give it much more thought than that. What good were a couple of rats that could hear everyone else but not communicate? Or could they communicate? Now that was a thought to hold onto. Not that it was worth much. He might continue to watch them in the future, but for now he didn't care much for them. Let them do what they wish.

Turning his attention back to the stallion, Vengeance looked out over the ridge too. It looked like, his old home. Well, without all the circus tents and men. Men. He let that thought pass quickly. He would have vengeance on any man he ran into.

What sort of response was his leader looking for? Was he talking about the scenery or the herd? Better to address both just in case, he didn't want to look stupid and blow his chances. "Well," He started. "It's definitely a change of scenery. Now that we're out of Hell I'm starting to regain bits of memories. I'm still having some issues with it but I suppose they'll come when they need to. They aren't particularly interesting. Just of my old master." The stallion glanced at his hooves, they were still covered with a bit of blood, but by now it was covered mostly by dirt. " In any case I've already taken care of him." Vengeance said with a smirk.

"Any ideas what we're going to do now? I mean, we get a second chance in the world, for whatever reason, we can't just waste it. Think of all the havoc we could wreak. Or we could just simply live the lives we never had. Whatever your choice we'll follow you." Vengeance was rather hoping to be able to wreak a little havoc. After all, the world could use a good lesson or two. "I know the rest of the herd will simply stand by and wait too."

Hmm, perhaps he would talk to Thorn a bit later. For now though, Vengeance was still working on getting Thanos to like him. Originally, he had thought that perhaps talking about havoc might be something the stallion would be interested in. However, it seemed that, once again. He was indifferent. Perhaps Vengeance was merely wasting his time? It didn't even seem like Thanos was all there. That could be rather problematic. If the herd leader wasn't even going to remember much of what Vengeance said why bother? Well, he supposed he could at least continue trying for now. Maybe it would also mean he wouldn't remember if Vengeance did anything to upset or anger him. No, he would surely remember something like that.

"Yes, he's quite taken care of." Vengeance smirked rather evilly. No one would ever cross him again without paying the price. His master was only the first. He would not have another master. He was free now, to do as he pleased. "I might go talk to Thorn, but right now I'm talking with you." He directed at the leader. He hoped he didn't sound too pushy but he did suppose the way he said it could come across as so.

Was he mumbling to himself again? No, Vengeance must just be hearing things. It had kind of looked like it, but he doubted it. He did sympathize with the other stallion. Vengeance sometimes hated that he couldn't remember bits of his past. What if there was someone else he needed to go after? However, he couldn't even image what it would be like not remembering much of anything. Which is what seemed to be Thanos' problem. He did seem to lose his thoughts quite quickly.

"Maybe try not forcing your memories back? I'm sure they'll come when they need to." He thought he might as well try and offer some advice. Although he wasn't quite sure what good it was.

The gray stallion shrugged as he received the leaders words. His master was dead now and he had taken his vengeance, but had it really helped? There were still so many other disgusting humans out there just like that man. Killing his old master had given Vengeance a sort of peace but only just a little peace. It was likely that the stallion would always be filled with rage. After all, he had had ten long years in Hell to allow his anger to boil and rage inside of him.

"I suppose it did a bit." He told Thanos. "Although what he did to me can never be undone." It was true. Even though Vengeance had exacted his revenge the hurt, pain and the betrayal were a permanent part of him now. "What about you?" He asked the black stallion. "Do you have ties left to this world?" From what trouble the leader seemed to be having with his memories, Vengeance wasn't even sure if the stallion would know, but maybe asking would bring something back. Memories did that, just kind of came back randomly when prompted.

The gray stallion had listened quietly as Thanos asked him about memories. To that he did not have an answer. He had asked himself that very same question a few times and still hadn't come up with anything. He supposed he would honestly never know. Had he ever had a mate before Hell? He sort of doubted it, but if he did he had not received any new memories and doubted he would ever know otherwise unless he did.

"Now that is a question I cannot answer." He told his leader. "I wish I could but I can't. I suppose we'll never know, seeing as how we won't know we've even ever lost the memory." He doubted his answer would be of any help, but it was still an answer.
