Welcome to Gaia! ::

This is the main Rp room. Here you can rp the Native, Cimarron, and Riverbend herds. The Native and riverbend herds are feuding, therefore their interactions with each other will mainly be hostile. To Rp here, be sure to put the Horse you are rping before Rp'ing the first time.

Ebony and ivory hooves pounded the earth with a great force as the adult, bay stallion entered the lands. It was good to run. He loved the feeling of the wind in his mane, and the beating of his heart.

This stallion had a coat of deep auburn and a thick, white blaze down his face. His two front legs were dipped in white, and his eyes were a brilliant blue. He was a handsome one, but then again, what horse wasn't handsome or beautiful? Yes, he was a young, just recently reaching adulthood. It has been a long time since he's seen his pure white mother who gave birth to him long ago. It's been a long time since he met...her...Her...the filly he met when he was only a day or so old. The filly whom he helped to stand, and in doing so, costing him to fall. That filly stole his heart that day. Sure, when he was a foal he recognized it only as taking a liking to her, which he did. However over time, his memories of that brown and white filly swept him away. Memories that were not enough. Not enough memories of her to quench his thirst. His thirst to know that filly, to know everything about her. He'd fallen in love with that filly.

Of course, she'd be a mare by now. She'd probably already fallen in love with a stallion by now, and this stallion would be crushed. However he wanted to risk it. He wanted to try. Even if it meant destroying him. He simply had to see that filly again.

And so Mikai, bay stallion of the Cimmaron, vowed that no matter what, he would find his lovely filly, Fawn.

Mikai stopped his gallop, and slowed to a trot. He sniffed the air. In his he scented the grass, the trees, and a mare nearby.

The scent was vague, but oh so satisfying. He drank in the scent, bathing in it's sweetness. He did not know what kind of mare beheld this, but he wanted to meet her. Of course, he knew he couldn't be seducted by her, not when he heart still clung to that brown and white filly.

He trotted a bit, and saw in the distance a brown mare. Her mane was streaked with whites and dark browns, and her velvety muzzle was black. He squealed, reared back, and whirled around a foot or two, then landed, and whirled back. Recognition was the hardest to conceal, especially since the one you recognize is the one you love.

He bounded towards the mare, and stopped within a few yards. He reached out a nose, and nickered lightly.
"Fawn?"

Mikai was struck dumb. It took him a moment to find his voice. "As a teen, I wandered off to the other herds for a bit, but when I returned as a teen nearing adulthood, I found out my mother was gone. I went looking for her, but gave up. I gave up because...I wanted to find...you."

He gazed into her deep auburn eyes. They were dark, like the bark of the trees. Dark and deep. So deep, that Mikai wondered it their complexity could swallow him whole.

Mikai was jumpy. He shook his mane and pawed the earth.
"I didn't have to, but I wanted to..." He paused.
As she neared him, he exhaled slowly. Tentatively, slowly, he reached his nose out to hers. As his nose touched hers in a delicate kiss, his body quivered.

And now Mikai knew that all that time searching had been worth it. Mikai had found his love, and would not let her go ever again. And with the tiny kiss, in his mind flashed an unknown future. A future that may be filled with happiness, or heartbreak. New life, or death. Separation, or togetherness. Peace, or war. Only the future beholds what may happen, and what may not...

Mikai's head was surprisingly clear, considering the nervousness he felt inside.
"I'm glad I did too." he paused, deciding to say it before his confidence left him. "I would've followed you to the ends of the earth and back." He nuzzled her. "I love you Fawn. And I want to spend every minute with you." he swallowed, moving right next to her. "I want...I want you to be my mate, Fawn. I want to have foals born of our love for each other, and I never want to love anyone else." the words spilled from his lips.
"Let's run away. Let's run away and be mates. Together, we can make our love into something special." his heart was now talking, not his head. His mind was pushed aside, his common sense telling him to hush now, but his heart overpowering it, spilling it's deepest passions with her. Hopefully he regarding it with kindness, and not fear.

((Aw, thanks Buffy. ^^ heart ))

Fawn nuzzled him back, eyes gleaming with joy. "Yes, yes! I will be your mate. I love you, too, Mikai... oh so deeply, and for so long." Fawn smiled brightly at her newfound--well, old--love. "Foals? Yes! I so wish to have children!"

Her heart was pounding so hard, she was sure that Mikai could hear it. She was so excited, so happy, so... in love. Yes, those were the words. "Run away?" She nuzzled him, then nipped him teasingly. "I like the idea. Eloping, to a world all our own, made only by us with our love. Yes. Let's do that, Mikai."

What more could she say? She was so happy. She leaned against him slightly--he was so strong, so handsome, so... Mikai--and he was hers. All hers. No other mare's, but hers. Her life felt so... complete. That is, without the children, but otherwise, it was complete.

"Silly, you are too eager! You'll have to catch me first!" she teased, and with a challening whinny, kicked up her hooves and fled, laughing. "Mikai, I want a family too, but you have to earn it!" She really couldn't wait though. She was soon to be pregnant with children. Mikai's children. Her children.

Their children!

She was so happy, it was hard to believe she couldn't fly, like that little blue butterfly she used to play with when she was a foal. The blue butterfly was gone now, probably died... since butterflies didn't live for very long, but she was sure she'd see its children someday. But for now, Mikai was her world.
