Jazzy had a feeling the mare was not addressing everyone but nodded politely to her. She seemed nice enough. The black mare also gave a thankful smile to Waters Warrior. "Rockslide was right about you" she said, grinning at the mare, admiration growing in her. She glanced at the stallion, and answered his former question. "My brothers are Challenger and Violent Victory. They should be along here anytime soon. They do that extremely annoying big brother macho thing, so I can guarentee that you'll meet them soon enough" she smiled devilishly, eyes glowing.
