 Knuckle was running for his life...and having the time of it!
"Can't catch me, stupid 'walker!" he taunted the being charging after him while dodging around a tree and under a branch.
It growled and started moving faster though having more trouble navigating the forest than was Knuckle. The closer the skinwalker got the less this seemed like a good idea...had it ever? Oh well! He ran faster. Angry claws and teeth were such good motivators. The trees of the forest were starting to thin and he started to worry a bit. Without the foliage to provide obstacles, he might just get caught. He wasn't sure he could beat the predator behind him on a flat plain.

Down the shaded forest path Thesh-ah ploded along her cloven hooves makeing a muffled clop clop against the soft moss and dry leaves. Her eyes wich peared out from under a mask made from the skull of the kalona that slain her family, were made for low light like this. They were liken to twin emerald flames in the way that they glowed and flickered. Her Taterted battle vestments and long royal purple mane rustled gently in the sweet breeze.
The sound of discord came lightly to her ears it as it was aprently a fair disstance away.
Skin walker. she thought her ears pricking forward. plungeing forward through the underbrush she banked a sharp right toward the sounds. As the gap between them closed A warning whinny came from deep within her.

As the creature got close enough to snap at his short tail, Knuckle paused and kicked his rear feet into the skinwalker's face, catching it off guard for a moment as its own forward momentum plowed it into his waiting hooves. His bones hummed with the force of the impact but he was sure the walker would shake it off in a few seconds. He dug his rear hooves back into the earth when they came back down and leaped over a small bush before continuing to run.
A high, shrieking whinny tore through the air as he ran for his life, the adrenaline pounding through his veins. He roared a whinny both in reply and in a further taunt to the skinwalker that was recovering a few yards behind him.
((Nbd, I can take a while to respond sometimes too. ^^))

((( acidently edited my last post istead of quoteing . . . sad so yea ))
The distinct resonace hoof meeting bone meet her ears in a familiar way.
the skinwalker snarled with rage ad shook it's head in an attempt to clear the ringing in its ears. That was exactly the openig she needed. The ringing in his ears drowned out the pounding of her metal shoed hooves against the forest floor. Closeing the small amount of space between her and her intended target she reared on her hind legs and knocked him full force in the side liken to the way a ram would butt heads with an oppent.
A few ribs buckled under the force and he toppled side ways some how mangeing to stay on his feet.
She wasent a pretty thing but she was a sturdy thing. Rage burned in her eyes under the skull mask as she whirled and jump to place herself between him and whoever it was he was presueing.

Knuckle seethed that someone had gotten in his way...interrupted his game. In a dim part of his mind, he admired the mare's bravery and her ability to bring a skinwalker down. He noted that her hooves were iron shod and resolved to get him some of those!
Despite his vague admiration, this mare had gotten between him and his game. This would not be tolerated!
-The skinwalker took one look at the fierce looking mare with the skull mask and decided to find easier prey. Though if he ever found that blasted brown and green worm he would take great care to make the end...enjoyable...-
As the skinwalker made its escape, Knuckle moved forward and got up in the masked mare's face.
"What do you think you're doing?!", he demanded.

For a moment she looked about stunned nay (no pun intended) super confused. He hadent really been talking her had he?
No . . .he couldn't have been no one is that clueless he couldent have not known he was being presued by a skin walker could of he? No he had to know because i distinctly heard him kick it she thought looking behind her once more. Well there is no one else so it had to be her she figured.
Tilting her head to the side in a manner that clearly said boy you must be crazy.
"Last I checked I was saveing your a**?" she replied slowly as if she was unsure if that was an adaquit answer to his unushual questioning.
Or perhaps he was one of those hippie types and was concerned that she had hurt it.
"don't worry I didn't hit it to hard a fee cracked ribs is all." she added in an asureing manner

Knuckle snorted, "Who said I needed saving? Huh?!"
He laid his ears back and blew a breath through is nostrils. Saving?! Him?! Now what was he supposed to do for entertainment! This mare had chased off his skinwalker...perhaps she would like to entertain him? He got himself ready for a good shouting match.
"I'm not worried about it being hurt, more that you SCARED IT AWAY!" he practically howled.

Thesh took a step back to avoid haveing snot blown on her as he snorted and shouted. her ears laid back flat against her head she looked about.
Was this guy nuts??!?!? Had he eaten a bad batch of mushrooms or something? She wondered looking about to see of there was anyone arround to help her.
I wish Blake was here she thought she would take care all of this.
"I-I well I just asumed that you didn't want to be eaten is all." she replied
Oh no what if he has rabies?!?! She thoght takeing another step back she certainly didn't want to have that as it was offten hard enough for her to make new aquantinces without haveing A virus that made her as clinically insane as this soq clearly was.

Knuckle pawed at the ground some more. Well. Hm. The mare had thought he was in trouble. It was a common misconception. He supposed he could forgive her that...maybe. With a final angry grunt he slumped forward.
"Yea well. I was fine. I had things under control...you chased off my fun." he grumbled, towering rage all but forgotten.
He idly noticed that he was bleeding from a gash on his flank where the SW had gotten him with a claw. Funny, it hadn't hurt until just now. Oh well, it would be fine.
"Next time, leave me be." he muttered, mind wandering to the next adventure he might find.
A thought struck him and he looked at the mare calculatingly. "You chased away my fun. So. You should find something for us to do."

She studied him as he spoke and acted assessing that he wasn't diseased. No foam at the lips or what not and . . .he seemed to gather that she had meant no harm by chasing odd his so called fun. So mental recognition was indeed forthwith.
Despite the fact that it now seemed that he had some common sense (and by some she meant just enough to make him seem just a tad away from being totally off of his rocker) rattling about in that skull of his she still eyed him quite warily and in so noted the gash on his flank about the same time he did.
"if that's what you "fine", "under control", or "fun". I would wager your definitions of other words are just as inaccurate. Is today opposite day and just no one told me?"
He's like blake on sugar cubes she thought . . .lots of sugar cubes.
"and by something else to do I suppose you mean something highly dangerous??" she asked with a sarcastic snort.

Knuckle frowned. It felt like he was being made fun of for some reason. He shrugged the feeling off, if it was happening he couldn't do anything about it and if it happened to his face he would retaliate in kind.
"Those things are fun. What is life without a little danger and excitement?!" he exclaimed, "it's not opposite, just a matter of perspective. I would hate to live a dull life."
He tossed his head in anticipation, "You should help me chase down another skinwalker or something...since you chased mine away and all."

He was serious she thought tilting her head to one side.
What a loony notion. . . Almost dismissing the whole idea and walk away but then she paused as a new rain of thought pulled into the station.
During their short encounter She over looked a very important detail . . .there was now a skin walker close to indeed quite to close the campsite. The campsite where Blake and Poet were staying. In actuality she had done more harm by interrupting his game . . . As he had been leading it away from her friends where as now it was likely heading straight for them. Thusly this skin walker more rightly at the moment this threat needed to be taken care of before it caused a problem. . .a problem such as Someone actually being attacked and harmed.
"perhaps your right . . .but let's get that wound of yours taken care of first can't very well play a game with a wound like that." she replied nodding her head in the direction of a nearby stream.
"I'll get that skin walker back to chasing you of you agree to run it that direction." she nodded the opposite direction of camp.

Knuckle glanced again at the wound and scoffed. "It's fine. Not even bleeding anymore!"
He considered the mare's sudden change of heart briefly. Why was she suddenly willing to help him find the skinwalker? Oh well. The point was that he was going to get his fun back. He smirked at the thought.
"Now then. I think he went that-a-ways." he said, indicating the crushed vegetation that clearly lead through the area.

"I would certainly say so as well." she replied giving her head a nod as they began to trot in the right direction. They walked for some moments fallowing the various trail signs. For being injured he certainly wasn't taking it easy as far as traveling this skin walker was bookin it and making damn good time too.
"you . . .do this kind of thing often ?" She asked looking at him as she stepped over some fallen vegetation.
"get chased about by skin walkers I mean." she added.
