Subject: Her eyes, too, are wide with fear, especially at Dusk's enterance... She knew she had to be careful with her words, for this was sensitive ground for Mercury... Dusk had come and spoken too soon for her liking. She inhaled, holding her breath and watching for Mercury's reaction as she fidgeted in place, breaking into a bit of a sweat...

He sees Dusk enter and his eyes widen for only a second, he watches even more closely, now his attention focused more on the edges of the territory, wary for his uncle or another angry horse to enter." on 09:55:45 07/30/01 Mon [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]

Subject Author Date *She snorts. "Oh just go, I'm not going to change your minds. Fine Dusk, have it your way. I hope you are happy, for I have lost everyone I ever cared about." She turns and walks away to another part of the territory, her back turned on the youngsters and her long black mane flowing behind her neck. Half turning, she says quietly. "Tis near time for me to leave this place anyways, all it has brought me is grief and hurt. I must admit, Cobweb." she says, raising her voice."I never took you for a quitter. And you Dusk, if your grandfather were here today..." She trails off, and walks further away, standing alone on the highest point of the territory.* (NT) Mercury 11:05:11 07/30/01 Mon "if WE are such quitters..then why have we returned here? You say you love her but love is unconditional...I love my father...I dont like him...but my love is his...just as my mother loves and supports me...and I promise you that you havent lost Cobweb...she is and always will be free to come and go as she pleases...It is better to keep her out of my fathers site till he cools down...I know him better then you do Mercury....and what do ye know of my grandfather...he would be proud that I took a stand for what and whom I love...hed be sorry that my father turned on those he loved...hed be sorry that you are throwing everything away because you cant see that we arent leaving you...we are here...she came back because of you and I came back to make sure she was alright here....I have also decided to stay and face my father...cousin Wit has had her foal...her foal hates me...she can sense my evil...shes smart....Ive come back to talk to my father...to keep Cobweb safe...to not leave her" (NT) -- dusk, 11:43:06 07/30/01 Mon *Anger rises inside her. "Don't you dare speak to me like you know me, because you don't. What do I know of your grandfather? He was dead before you were born, what do you know of him? Of course Whisper in the Wind's foal hates you, you cannot expect the good horses to put behind them all we evil have done to them. I'm suprised she even took you in. But then you are just a young one, and just remember that. I have asked you to leave, Dusk. Tis not you I need to be speaking with and I do not like your interruption."She pins her ears slightly and awaits Cobweb's response.* (NT) -- Mercury, 12:49:28 07/30/01 Mon She pins her ears slightly, upset that both are arguing. In a low voice, biting back any anger she has, she says, "Dusk, please go. This is between Mercury and I, and I don't need your help... Please, it's my problem, not yours..." She watches him for a moment more before slowly turning towards Mercury. Her words had held so much truth- they always had... She drops her head, "Mercury, I... I just wanted to apologize to you. I realize my leaving was perhaps a bit rash, and that I might regret it, but..." She sighs softly, "I saw, and still do not see, any other choice... You heard the words the King had to say about me- how could I have stayed when our ruler hated me so?" She lets her voice trail off, glancing up with still-pleading eyes... (NT) -- Cobweb, 15:12:48 07/30/01 Mon "My grandfather may have been dead before I was born but we are related by blood...I grew up on stories of him...what stories will they tell of you? That you lost one foal and now your holding onto another one so tight she cant breathe? Your wrong Cobweb this is my problem because I want you to be apart of me....perhaps I was wrong about ye...I think I wasted my time protecting and standing up against my family especially my sister whos going to be queen and my father the king....I stood up against everything for you and now you tell me it isnt my problem! Well its not now im going home and apologizing to my father to tell him he was right about you and to my sister...your nothing more then a submissive little filly who wont take a stand for someone that thought you cared about them....instead you come back here to be suffocated"*snorts*"Come Death we are leaving to speak to my father"*gallops out* (NT) -- Dusk, 15:39:24 07/30/01 Mon She pins her ears, seething with anger at his words. She says nothing as he goes, but snorts and says in a low voice once he's out of earshot, "Perhaps I was the one wrong about you, Dusk..." >>> -- Cobweb, 00:11:49 07/31/01 Tue She watches them from the darkness and laughs at their quarrels (NT) -- Gemini, 15:40:07 11/24/01 Sat
