 -Today was a very different day. Instead of hiding as she usually did, happily tucking herself away in the meadows and hills, Elarinya was actually TRYING to hunt someone out.
It wasn't that she was particuarly lonely.. She was quite intent enjoying nature and solitude. But she'd met some really nice soquili by chance.. and after a few days of debating with herself, she decided it was best she try and get over her shyness. However it was harder then she'd imagined, even with noone around. Simply the thought made the feathers of her dual wings shiver delicatey. And her eyes hid protectively behind those golden locks despite her best efforts.
She had to try! She just had to be a little brave.
Traveling slowly across the forest path, she kept her ears turned forward, hunting for the sound of another amidst the regular sounds of the day.-

 The day was a beautiful day. The sun was out, shining its bright, warming rays down upon the earth. There were barely any clouds in the sky and a small, pleasant breeze blew by every now and again.
It was a fine day to take a walk down a forest path. In fact, some probably were... just down this particular path, it seemed baron. Actually, besides the wind rustling the leaves in the trees, a few crickets here and there and a few birds chirping, it was pretty quiet.
Speaking of birds, did the chirping seem to get louder? From the once quiet path, the twittering and chittering of a bunch of small birds... a flock perhaps? Just then, a scream rang out from the trees, followed by a stallion being pecked by numerous of birds. "I'm sorry... I didn't know you had your nests in those bushes." He whined, trying to get them to leave him alone.
He didn't even notice the mare that he was heading toward because of his paniced state.

-Elarinya paused abruptly as the scream sounded, eyes widening, and ears flashing forward even more on alert. Someone was in trouble? A male she could tell, but she didn't really have much time to think on it, before her body was dragging her forward, her protective nature seeming to dismiss the shyness before she could fight it.
Hurrying down the path, headed in direction of the obviously angry twittering, she slowed once more as the scene unfolded before her. It wasn't a life or death situation thankfully, and she tried to settle her pattering heart. But she was sure the poor male wasn't enjoying the attention anyway.
Unfortuntely for him however, now that things were as they were, the overly gentle mare was slipping back into her usual timidness. And instead of helping run the birds away, she simply called meekly to them, stomping one golden hoove.- "Stop it stop it! Leave him alone!"
-Smart enough to know that her soft voice and self might not be intimidating enough, she shrank back a little, fretting softly, before gently she began to glitter and shine, another dual set of irredestant wings appearing from her.
She might not be able to stop the birds? But atleast she might be able to stop the pain and calm the stallion? Gently a coat of white magic enveloped the stallion, and though it wasn't much, as the birds weren't really evil enough to allow the true exertion of her powers, it would dull the pecks some, making them more an annoyance then a sting.-((Ha, that was kind of clumsy and more weird then helpful. XD It's my first time using her powers, so forgive me if it sounds bizzare. And, she only have her extra seraphim wings when she does use her powers, FYI. So she would have them until she lets off on the protective barrier on him.))

Continuing to run, Abel hoped that he would venture far enough away from the nests, the birds would return to the unprotected eggs. So far... it wasn't working. Well, except for one or two, but that wasn't enough.
The stallion was still not aware of the mare, his head held low so not to get pecked in the eyes. In an attempt to free himself from the bird's 'wrath' he spread out his black wings and brushed them away. Boy, birds were persistant... they just came right back.
It was when he faintly heard the sound of a soft, feminine voice when he looked up and stopped. Wait... why'd he do that? He screamed again when the birds seemed to swarm around him, bucking about to get them away.
Thinking he was going to be pecked to death. Such optimistic thinking. He tucked his head in and closed his eyes shut. It'll be all over soon. Or so he thought. His eyes quickly opened when he didn't feel the sharp pain that he got from the bird's beeks. With that, he brought his head up to see that the birds were still trying to get at him -though some more were leaving- but he didn't feel a thing. He then looked to the mare, who had gained another set of wings. He let out a gleeful squeal. She's an angel and she came down to save me from my torment.

-Concern laced her features as she watched the stallion struggle along, so consumed in the 'attack' that as of yet she hadn't come to question the strange appearance of the male. No, she simply stood her ground.
Until she actually thought about what she was watching. What if she were helping the wrong person? What if the birds were simply paying back a theif, or murderer! No no.. that couldn't be right. She'd just have to get everyone to settle down. Then perhaps she would know.
Stepping forwards a few more steps, she hoped the birds wouldn't turn to her as well, but readied herself just incase they did.- "Shoo birds. Leave him alone. Please.."

His red eyes watched as the birds started to give up and eventually disband from circling around him. When the last one finally fluttered off, the stallion sighed in relief, his body slumping from releasing his tension.
Once calming his nerves, he brought his head up and tossed his mane, causing his 'ponytail' to flop over his shoulder. That's when he remembered the mare with the odd wings, the one that had helped him with the birds.
With that thought, Abel turned to face the mare, smiling awkwardly at her. "Thank you very much Ma'am. I greatly appreciate your help. I was in a bit of a pickle with those birds." At the word 'pickle', the odd stallion thought. Mmm... pickles. How I wish I could get a bite to eat.... possibly some berries. That's when he remembered, that's how he got in this predicament and shook the thought off almost as quickly as he thought of it.

-Relief as the birds began to depart soon changed to that familar little nervousness as the stallion's attentions turned to her. And slowly she let her eyes divert behind golden locks as the transparent wings faded once more.-
"You.... you're welcome.." -A soft sound, barely over a whisper. And after a moments thought, she added curiously.- "Why were they so.. angry?"
-Her curiousity was beginning to get the better of her shyness, and as she waited for an answer she slowly let her eyes take in his pressence. The black and gold wings, the pulled back mane, and the strange something that seemed to lay over his body. What was it? She'd never seen such a thing before.-

When the mare spoke, he tilted his head as his ears perked forward to catch the soft-spoken words. Either she was just shy or he scared her. He wouldn't be surprised if it was the latter, especially with the scene that just happened not too long ago.
At her question, an awkward chuckle joined his smile. "Well, I got hungry while on my stroll. So I checked some bushes for berries. That's where the birds flew out and started attacking me. I'm guessing they thought I was going for their nests." He explained, another embarrassed chuckle escaping his lips.

"O...oh!" -The embarrasment and open chuckle soothed the mare, and before she could think to stop it something of a smile crossed her muzzle, a relieved little nicker escaping her.
He'd meant no harm. And though she'd never run into such a problem herself, she quite understood how protective some of the smaller animals could be. What a strane perdiciment he'd been in!- "So I suppose you scared each other really."
"What a strange thing!" -The exclimation was like one of child, soft awe in the statement as she mulled over the situation. She'd had her share of being scared, but never in her days had she scared anyone else. Intentionally or not.
Seeming finally to notice just how silly and outright she was being, she shifted a little timidly, adding lightly as her eyes once again settled curiously on the stallion's appereance.- "I'm glad you are alright now."

Just like the mare was glancing over his 'attire', his own red eyes were scanning her. He was getting a better look at her since when he first saw her, he was in his paniced state... he could have seen her wrong. But he wasn't. The mare was adorned in multiple feathered wings. Was she really an angel? He beamed at the thought, but quickly came back down when he heard her voice.
"Oh, yes. I'm glad I'm alright as well. Thanks to you My Dear." He told her, giving her a warm smile. "If it wasn't for you, I don't know how long I would be running for." He added before shaking the feathers that rested on him off, watching them flutter to the ground before looking back to her.

-Tilting her head just a bit, she let her golden locks slide forward to half hide her eyes when she noticed his returned glance, dual wings giving a subconcious little shiver.-
"I quite like to help.. It feels nice.. right even." -Was the answer to his thanks, and gently she glanced from the path she came, and then back to him. Her body and fluttering heart told her to go.
But she had been trying to find someone today.. and he did seem nice.. and made her smile.. Silently her head and will tried to fight with her reflexes. Until finally the ebbing of nervousness began to weaken, and her curiousity perked, sheepish smile touching her.- "What is? I mean..."
-She paused, uncertain of how to even explain her question, simply staring helplessly at the many symbols and ornate details that hung from his cloth. Was it a part of him? Or was it something on him? Was the something on him alive? Skeptically she glanced at the way the fabric shifted, feeling that want for flight returning.-

"I will have to agree whole heartedly. Helping others is a wonderous thing and a marvelous feeling." He replied. He looked to his disheveled wings and sighed. He couldn't help but wonder why these types of things happened to him as made to preen at the dark feathers. He promptly stopped though when he thought, would it be rude to just lose interest in the mare and concentrate on his wings... or at least, until they were 'fixed'. He wasn't quite sure, but he didn't want to risk it, so he put it off for now and looked back to her.
It was when he noticed her gazing over his clothing. Was something on me? Did the birds leave a 'mess'? He thought as he looked about his form, then looked back to her, especially at the beginning of her question. With a confused, curious tilt of his head, he asked. "What is it you're trying to ask me, Miss?"

-Indeed she hadn't minded the preening. Though most might have, it was somewhat more comfortable for her to talk when she knew his eyes weren't staring her down. But when he looked up, she wasn't nearly as scared as she thought she would be. Instead the feeling was.. sheepishness? Embarrassment?
"Ahhh.. I" -She drew back minutely at the question, letting her golden strands fall so that her eyes were almost completely shielded from his sight, only the slight hint of blue shimmering through.-
"Your back.. and your sides.. I've never seen.. something like that. It is a part of you?" -It's strange. But she kept that last little bit to herself as she turned her eyes once again to the cloth that adorned him. Ignorant 'child' she was.-

He seemed to have noticed her awkwardness around him, though he couldn't imagine what it could be. Inwardly, he hoped that he didn't say or do anything for her to feel this way toward him, it would be a shame if he unwittingly did something to offend her. Slowly, he backed up lightly, hoping that the slight increase in space between them will give her a bit of comfort.
When she spoke up again, his ears flicked toward her and waited. He tilted his head when she seemed to cover her face. Does she think I'm a maniac? The way the birds were attacking me... He thought worriedly.
The winged male sighed in relief when she finally told him what was on her mind. But it was his clothes? His red eyes scanned over his jacket before looking back to her. "My clothes? I've had these as far as I can remember."

-The added space, and the draw to her curiousity as he explained, albeit vaguely, seemed to do the trick, and Ela's fidgeting settled minutely.- "Clothes..?" -She tested the word on her tongue, trying to find a place she'd heard such a term before.-
-Tail twitching softly, she motioned back at the red ribbon that wrapped around the base of her golden tail, eyeing the black one that adorned his mane.- "Like my ribbon? It's been there since I can remember... but it does come off. Only then I need help putting it back on..."
-Last time in fact it'd been a two legger that'd helped to put it back. Luckily a small one, so it wasn't nearly so scary, and she'd done a good job really.-
"That's neat." -She finally proclaimed, almost like a foal as she nodded, letting her hair slide back once more, as not to completely shield herself.- "What does it look like under it?"
