 Punk yawned as he got to his feet, having rested on a hill just on the edge of Michiko and Jaromir's territory. Birds don't fly by night, and Punk was no exception. Unfortunately, that meant he'd started walking the moment the sun went down, and he'd been too tired to make it to his destination. That was alright, though; he wasn't one for appearing at night. Well, except that one time with Ca. But that had been an emergency. That was one of the two reasons he was here; word had slipped to him through his network of sources that his adopted daughter was expecting--and he wasn't going to be in the south when the foals were born. They'd said they'd be visiting Paimon's in-laws around this time... The second reason... was because of an agreement that was long overdue on payment. He'd told Haides he'd come and visit the black stallion ages ago... and he was finally fulfilling that promise. He stretched his wings wide as he yawned again and prepared to descend into the heart of Jaromir's territory. He didn't know a lot about the pair except the alpha mare had an extreme hatred of Ruin. He couldn't blame her; he didn't know many that actually enjoyed the flamer's presence. He began trotting down the hill at an easy pace. He wasn't expected, but what could go wrong?

 Michiko had wandered a bit away from her home, and was grazing just at the edge of her territory, while Hecate lounged lazily on her back. She was enjoying the solitude, memories of her life flashing through her head. It hadn't seemed that long ago that she had just been a little filly, playing in these same fields with her friends, and promising to never let Ramee be alone... Then she met Jaromir and her world changed... Until that demon took her away... She shuddered, her violet eyes squinching at the thought of what that demon had put her through in those couple months he had her in his grasp. She shook her head, pushing the tears that were welling up behind. It was over now. She had found Jaromir and they had beautiful children.. and grandchildren galore... Oh how she adored them.. They made her almost wistful for her own foalhood, so she could gallamp around like they did, and play with them. Her thoughts were interrupted by a loud screech from Hecate, who immediately took off from Michi's back and took off at the bird like creature. "GET BACK YOU FOUL CREATURE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Hecate screeched as she launched herself at Punk's eyes. Michi's heart started beating fast as she took in the sight of the male. She had heard of him, enough to get a description and know that, even though he didn't work for the six, he wasn't to be trusted. At all... Especially near her children and grandchildren and pregnant daughter and daughter-in-law... sorta.. Michi still considered Paimon her son.. even though he was born of that foul disgusting.... She growled and whirled towards the male, anger flashing deep in her violet eyes. Protect. Protect.. It was her mantra.. she had to protect her family.

Punk couldn't help it; the shriek made him roll his eyes. But he couldn't afford a direct confrontation at the moment... He had appointments to keep. He spread his wings wide as he accelerated, using his higher ground to leap over the charging mare and glide back down to the ground. He closed his eyes when the bat creature clawed at them, shaking his head to make her job harder. Then he took off, eyes still closed. He didn't need sight to do what he was here for. Sound was all he needed--and he wanted to get a little farther away from the screeching duo so he could utilize his hearing a little better.

Michiko caught up to the bird easier, for once cursing that she didn't have wings so she could take him down in the air. "Get out. You have NO business here." She growled.

Punk chuckled as he danced about to avoid Michiko and her little... pet. "On the contrary. I have plenty of business here. Some of which is notoriously overdue, and all of it is important. So if you wouldn't mind stopping your chasing of me, that would be lovely." Oh, he was probably pushing all of the wrong buttons. Well, such things happened when you were a punk. His ears swiveled atop his head, searching for the familiar sounds of Haides, Ca, Paimon, or any other familiar Azrien.

Michiko growled and trumpeted in frustration as Hecate flew off for reenforcements while she tried to head him off.
Hecate flew to the first male she could fine, which happened to be Paimon. Paimon nodded, and with panic in his heart, what if it was someone after his and Ca's soon to be born babies?? No. He wouldn't stand for that. He took off as fast as he could, charging straight into the intruder without even stopping to see who it was.

Punk quickly jumped out of the way, both startled and relieved to hear familiar sounds. "That's not the welcome I'd expected from you," he called out to Paimon. A wicked grin was spread across the bird Azrien's face, yellow eyes dancing with his infinite amusement. "Long time no see, Paimon," he greeted cheerily--despite the fact he was still dodging Michiko. "How's my little ankle-biter doin'?" A flash of black made his grin widen. "Haides! No, wait." His grin fell when he got a better look. This stallion had a mask. But those same blue eyes and black-and-grey coloring... "Not Haides. Son of Haides?"
Plouton nodded slowly, confused out of his mind. First word of an intruder was spread, and then he finds... "You're the Punk, right?" He watched the bird Azrien's grin return. "Thaaaat's me. Wanna go get your dad for me? I kinda got my hands full here..." He continued to dance about Michiko, doing his best to avoid getting mauled before he made his visits.

Paimon stopped his attack, tilting his head at Punk, his sides heaving. "Michi. Its okay. Punk... I'm guessing you heard?"
Michi stopped and Hecate landed on her back as they watched warily.

Punk grinned. "Of course. It's most of the reason I'm here." He glanced over his shoulder as Haides walked towards him. "And there's the other part. Long time no see, *Unseen. Been busy, I see."
"You sure take your time..." Haides stopped a few feet from the bird Azrien. "And yes. That's one way of putting it."
"You seem happier too." Punk's yellow eyes danced. "But I guess that's a given, since you've got mate and kids."
Haides smiled and nodded. "Indeed. And what have you been up to lately?"
"Eh, not much. Mostly avoiding direct contact with the other southern bird and occasionally chatting with those I consider tolerable. Oh, your brother says 'hi,' by the way." He ruffled his wings a bit. "It's gotten quiet since the girls left the nest," he remarked, grinning at Paimon afterwards. "Speaking of my girls, how's Ca been?" Besides expecting foals.
(( *pun off of Haides's name, which means "unseen" ))

Michiko stomped her hooves angrily. "WHY IS HE HERE AND WHY ARE YOU JUST LETTING HIM STAY!?" She bellowed angrily. One could almost see the steam rolling out of her nostrils, ears and eyes.
Paimon winced and turned to Michiko. "Mom, just go over and keep an eye on Mila, Jara and Nae. They all need their mom. Punk isn't going to hurt them, he didn't even come to bother you. He's here to see Ca and Haides." He said softly, nudging Michiko away. She glared over Paimon's shoulders but finally turned, a warning snort, and walked away.
Paimon turned back to Punk. "I'm sorry about that. She's been through alot..." He said softly. But on to Ca, and happier matters. "She's doing well, Punk. She will be happy to see you too."

Punk just shrugged at the apology. "So have I. That's why I'm not even bothering to respond to the whole 'You live in the south and you must die!' bit." The comment about Ca made him grin--and got a remark out of Haides.
"Somehow I can't be surprised that Ca is your daughter. Despite the lack of feathers, she both looks and acts like you."
Punk's grin widened. "If I didn't know you, I'd swear you were trying to embarrass me. And Ca would be happy to hear that." Haides just raised an eyebrow, so the stallion explained. "I'm to Ca what Serenity is to you." He shrugged. "But she's my daughter either way. I couldn't just wait around, hearing she's having kids." He smiled. "Who knows? Maybe I'll find Melda during this visit."
"Melda?"
"The mare that Ca considers her mother. It was only for a winter, but we were... very close." He grinned sheepishly. "But she never came back, so I guess I get to scour my old stomping grounds for her."

Paimon nodded at Haides and Punk. "We'll be over the hill, Punk. I don't like leaving her alone... especially with how far she is." He nodded a goodbye before trotting off to Ca. He only smiled and didn't tell her who was here.

Punk nodded and excused himself from Haides to follow after Paimon. His face lit up at the same time Ca's did, a wide grin spreading across his face as he trotted over to his pregnant daughter. "Hey there, kiddo. How're ya doin'?"
Ca Thu Thi smiled as her father came over and nuzzled her. "Bored... but good." Despite her obvious joy and excitement at seeing Punk, the mare made no move to get up and meet him. She was carrying foals, after all. The last thing she needed was to make a clumsy move due to the extra weight and hurt herself or the children.

Paimon grinned and nuzzled Ca before looking up at Punk, not sure if Ca would tell him herself, so he decided to. "She Chose." he said lightly.

Punk blinked slowly, then gave Paimon a look. "You should've mentioned that when I asked how she was doing," he said flatly. Even so, his expression softened slightly as he turned his attention back to Ca. "She must be quite a two-legger, then. Congratulations, sweetheart." Seeing the silent question in his daughter's eyes, he shook his head. "Better not, Ca. Old habits die hard..." Although he wouldn't attack on sight, two-leggers did make him edgy... and he'd probably fly off if they came too close.
