(I made part 15)

Redmoon gaped at him and growled. Instead, she went after Magicpetal and tagged her on the flank. "You're it!" She said before galloping away.

Emberblaze groaned but raced after her. His legs became a blur and he pumped his in-sync wings together, his wings also becomeing a blur. He shot out across the valley and whizzed past her, tagging her on the shoulder. "Tag. You're it." he called, flying up and into the clouds

( Awwwh bai ;c )

(gtg)

Redmoon smirked and furrowed her eyebrows. She opened her wings and flapped one huge flap and went across the grass. She tagged Emberblaze with ease and breezed by him. "you. Are. It" She mocked and dashed away.

Silverflame:

"Ha ha Redmoon!" Called Silverflame, before he two galloped out to her way.

Horizongold and Dusksplash both grinned, watching, then picked up their speed when Redmoon veered toward them.

Emberblaze galloped away, whinning happily. He flapped his large wings, propelling him forward.

Redmoon jumped and glared. "How dare you!" She screeched playfully and chased after him determined to tag him back for pay-back.

Emberblaze smirked. He snuck up behind Redmoon and darted forward and tagged her on the flank. "TAG!!!" -gallops away-

Silverflame:

Silverflame looked around to see if her could spot Emberblaze

"Sure!" Horizongold said. "I think Emberblaze is it."

Silverflame:

The colt spotted his friends playing tag and turned to his sister. "Wana see if we can join in?"

Pearlsong nodded, "That sounds like fun."

Silverflame turned to Shadowstar, "Do you want to come to?" he asked his brother, Shadowstar shook his head. "Okay, see ya later."

Silverflame trotted over to Breezebell, Goldenstream, and the others, followed by Pearlsong. "Hay, can we play to?" he asked.

(Okay, I think I'll throw Pearlsong in there to)

( Yup that about sums it all up :) )

(Oh! Okay, so Fruitfire was guarded overnight. The council disbanded for the night and Breezecloud went into labor. She gave birth to a pinto colt named Dusksplash. That was a few days before now, and Brightwing just came back from a long mission with news that might be the start of another council meeting. Brightwing's triplets, along with Breezebell, Redmoon, Horizongold, (and Silverflame if you want to add him), and Dusksplash are playing tag right now.)

(Umm... the council was voting rather or not to guard Fruitfire and his family)

(Where were we when you were last on?)

(eep, I some how turned of notifications for this, can some one catch me up?)

(Anyway, let's continue)

Bronzewing trotted up and exchanged breath with his son, then greeted Brightwing. "Welcome back," the former over-stallion said.

( Oki........ )

(I know)

( BTW You might wanna go to the ROTR RP )

Redmoon dashed to the side from Duskslplash and saw Cloudroot smiling at them. She smiled back with pleasure.

Cloudroot finished up sorting roots and herbs for the day and dozed in the mouth of the cave. Her eyes flew open again when she heard happy nickers from the clearing. She saw a group of yearlings playing tag, and heard them nickering more than usual. As Redmoon dashed aside, Cloudroot saw why. In the center of the game stood a very cute-looking Dusksplash. She grinned, since it is almost impossible to keep a straight face around an adorable newborn.

Embermoon smiled. "Wish I had a connection like that," She muttered.

Brightwing smiled sadly at his mate. "I've missed you so much, you know that?" He said, and hugged her tight.

( brb )

Embermoon smiled weakily. "Yeah.."

Starsummer nodded affectionatly. "Sure. And to be honest, I couldn't either." she said, wrappng her wing around him

Brightwing leaned into Starsummer as well, their weight holding each-other up. "Will you go with me?" He whispered in her ear. "I don't think I could stand to see another grave on my own."

Embermoon nodded solemnly.

Starsummer leaned against Brightwing. "I don't know if I should tell you this, but, our foals were very brave in that situation. Emberblaze fought off the remaining wolves after Crimsomstorm had been taken to the medicine mare den. Magicpetal had fled, but ran to get help. Horizongold was the help she had gotten and he finished off the Alpha. And Goldenstrem didn't leave the medicine mare's side. I think that's what she wants to be." she said, nuzzling his face, wiping his tears away with her muzzle. "Yes, you may go see him. He is that way. Past those trees, you will find an apple orchard and you will see his finall resting place." she said, pointing toward the orchard

Embermoon nodded. "You can pay your respects at his grave if you like," She answered.

Brightwing shed a single tear. "He was such a strong young stallion. I-I liked him. He seemed so patient and kind."

Embermoon nodded sorrowfully. "He died in the attack like I said,"

Brightwing's eyes widened until they showed the whites. "Crimsonstorm is dead?"

"Redmoon was. A steed died in that attack. It was her father. I don't know why they were so close to the herd! Maybe because they were on the verge of starvation?" She said.

Brightwing's eyes narrowed. "How did they even get near the Herd? Who was attacked?"

Embermoon thought a moment. "Well, we have captured quiet a few herds in the past year..... Can't really think of anything else that was REALLY big accept for the wolf and Puma attack.." She answered.

Brightwing snorted. "True." He looked at Starsummer then his sister. "Can you two tell me what's been happening here that I missed?"

Embermoon smiled at him. "Thanks but I doubt any stallion is good enough for me," She smirked.

Brightwing nickered, not affected. "I bet you will. Any day now. You're pretty you know." He said teasingly, but meant the last part.

Embermoon gaped at him and punched his shoulder with her wing like siblings do to tease eachother. "No I have not found anyone yet," SHe spat.

Brightwing grinned again. "Just wondering. Figured if you found someone while I was gone, I should kow about it. Being your brother and everything. Also, I haven't had any fun in months, and as my sister making you tell me things that you're embarrassed about is as fun as it gets." He tried not to smirk, kowing he would look like a foal if he did.

Embermoon gulped and blushed. "Uh no not really," She asnwered. "Why do you ask?!" She asked.

Brightwing grinned. "Hey sis. How've you been? Found anyone good enough for you yet?" He was only teasing, but was also curious about her answer.

Embermoon turned to see Brightwing talking to Starsummer and smiled. She flew over and landed beside Starsummer. "Hi Brightwing! Long time no see," She snorted.

Brightwing's whole face obviously brightened. "Thank goodness. Last time I saw her she was flying to almost definite death. Well, it was great to see you Breezecloud." He turned back to Starsummer. "How've our foals been? Do you think they're upset that I've been gone so long?" He asked, starring his hooves guiltily.

Breezebell squealed and chased after Wmberblaze. She soon tagged him on the shoulder and galloped away saying, "You're it!"

(ok)

(I commented on ROTR)

(btw River, we need you on the ROTR RP)

Horizongold put on more speed and tagged Breezebell on the hindquarters. "You're it!!" he said, then turned around to exchange breath with Dusksplash. "Hello, cousin," he said.

Magicpetal nickered loudly at the foal. She saw him tag Horizongold then Horizongold run after Breezebell. She slowed to a fast trot since Breezebell and Horizongold were no where near her.

Dusksplash nickered. He cantered after Magicpetal, but fell flat on his face. He was greeted by the amused nickers of 'cuteness overload' from the yearlings. He decided to go up to the biggest one, a big brown stallion with gold wings. He put on a spurt of speed and tagged him on the wing. Horizongold grinned, then chased Breezebell.

Magicpetal nodded. She opened her wings and galloped forward. She ran up behind him and tagged the little colt on his wing. "Tag! You're it!!" she squealed, cantering away

Dusksplash trotted faster toward the yearlings, excited. He couldn't talk yet, but his expression clearly said, "PLAY!"

Breezecloud looked up. "Yes, I can stay." Hearing his next question, she shook her head vigorously. "No! She's very much alive. In fact, she's one of the flight school instructors, along with Horizongold and his mother Oceangold."

Brightwing remembered an important detail with a frown and looked at Breezecloud. "I think he'll be all right for a minute if he stays with them, right?" He took a deep breath before asking, "Do you know what happened to my sister? Embermoon? I haven't seen her in so long. She isn't dead, is she?" He asked, looking away in case the answer would sting.

Magicpetal felt her heart getting warmer at the sight of her newborn friend. She trotted faster toward him and Emberblaze, who was also feeling warm and happy, trotted forward, too. "Hiya, Dusksplash!!!!" Magicpetal called, grinning

Dusksplash twitched his tail and bleated. Breezecloud smiled. Dusksplash was feeling rowdy, so he bucked and started cantering rings around his dam. Breezecloud laughed. "True," he said to Brightwing. "But we don't need to focus on that. Now, please excuse me so I can calm this rascal down." Breezecloud tried to lead Dusksplash away, but Dusksplash didn't want to. He trotted away from his mother and toward a group of yearlings. Breezecloud looked up and smiled when she noticed who they were. Magicpetal, Breezebell, Redmoon, Emberblaze, and Horizongold were looking up at Dusksplash, who was coming toward them.

Brightwing smiled. "Congradulations." He smiled down at Dusksplash. "Pleasure to meet you. It's nice to see an innocent young face in time of such violence and tears."

Breezecloud flicked an ear in surprise. "You have been gone for a while!" she said. "I was assumed dead, but was actually unconscious. Glacier Herd ordered me to be buried, but I dug myself out when they left and I caught up with them here. That was more than a year ago. Since then, we've fended off pumas, found an apple orchard, captured Ice Herd and Frost Herd, started flight school, and progressed in army training. Mistcloud got back a few weeks ago from what I assume was a similar mission to yours. She informed us in the council that Flame Herd has been doing the same thing as Glacier Herd and has trained an army. Mistcloud believes that they plan to attack us. Bronzewing found a Flame Herd steed in the woods and questioned him in front of the council. He was found to be a roamer, only distantly in the past from Flame Herd. He has a filly who was hiding in the bushes near where we first found him, and his older son was spying on Flame Herd. We have decided to use this to our advantage in the coming war between our two herds. Oh, I forgot two things. Mistcloud and I have both given birth. This is Dusksplash, and Mistcloud's filly is Pearlsong."

Brightwing nodded to Breezecloud. "Glad to be back. Glad to see you back too. Last time I was around here you were supposed to be dead. What was that all about? And no, I would prefer not to call attention to my being back and what I was doing. It was kind of personal, in a way."

(byee!!!!!!! See u later!)

( XDD )

Redmoon trotted behind Magicpetal and looked around warily.

(actually gtg to bed, even though I would much rather do this lol)

Emberblaze: -growled, but followed-

Magicpetal: -let out a breath of relief-

Redmoon nodded. "Alright," She said and Breezebell dashed forward running towards Dusksplash.

Magicpetal: "Yes please!" she said, anything she could think of to get away from the dreaded game

Horizongold thought quickly. "Ya know what? Why don't we play with Dusksplash instead?"

Breezebell: "I';; go!" She exclaimed. She wuickly thought of somethin. "Alright Emberblaze, truth or dare?" She asked.

Magicpetal: "No!!" she said, simply

Emberblaze: "Sorry, sis. It's 3 to 2. Your outnumbered. Okay, who's going first?" -he said ,giving his sis the stink eye-

Breezbell glared at him. "You party pooper!" She snarled.

Horizongold rolled his eyes. "No," he said shortly.

Redmoon lifted her head. "Fine by me," Breezebell squealed in excitement. "OOOO Yeah!"

Emberblaze: he opened one eye, getting an idea. "Anyone up for Truth or dare?" he asked, mischievously.

Magicpetal grimaced at his words. "I know that." she said quietly. She dropped the subject and grazed, not wanting to talk about it.

Emberblaze cocked a hoof and folded his wings, relaxed

Redmoon dipped her head and nibbled on some grass when a butterfly landed beside her. She peered at it before it flew away.

Horizongolf nodded. "Exactly, Emberblaze," he said. "I couldn't have put it better myself. Always remain optimistic. For example, you fell because of a wind gust when you were a foal. this happened for a number of reasons. You were an inexperienced flier, you were and still are the smallest of the triplets, and you doubted yourself in the first place. This is something that happened to you, though. It does not define you. Learn from your mistakes, don't surround yourself with them."

Redmoon thought about that. "Star? Was he the black foal who was executed by Thunderwing? No things were also bad then. You know the battle between Sun Herd and Mountain Herd. I do agree with you sort of Magicpetal, but, I just can't right now,"

Magicpetal looked at him and snorted. "I know that. And no Redmoon. Anok was not always like this. Not when Star was alive, anyway...." she said, hoping her friends would get her point.

Emberblaze sighed and nuzzled his sister's shoulder. 'Leave it, Magicpetal. The world will always be filled will terrible things. It's how you deal with them that makes a difference."

Horizongold shrugged a wing. "I definitely agree, I don't like the idea of war. But those things you mentioned are all normal. Predators will attack, pegasi will get sick. That's natural. Sorry if that sounds cold-hearted, but it's true. And hey, that flying fiasco is behind you and us. Leave it there, where it belongs: in the past."

Redmoon looked at her as if Magicpetal had missed something. "Magicpetal, it's been liek this always. The pegasi have broken this world and have broken themselves in the process. That's why we msut stay strong to keep the good alive," She said warmly. Breezebell stopped and noded agreeing with her sister.

Magicpetal swallowed. "No." she peeked over her shoulder at her parents and sighed. "I wish Anok would just go back to normal without all the fighting and death. I wish we yearlings and 2 year olds could grow up normally and not have to face with ravenging wolves, pumas, Firemoth trees, and.." she swallowed again "Crosswinds.."

Horizongold nodded. "I guess that's not surprising," the young stallion said. "He was on a top-secret mission, so it's logical he would have news."

Breezecloud saw Brightwing from across the clearing and trotted up to him, followed by

Dusksplash. She snorted softly to get his attention and he turned to her. "Welcome back," she started. "I noticed that this seems confidential. Do you want to call a council meeting?"

Redmoon looked at them. "If only I knew what ot was like to be reunited with your father but then have him send you away for a bit," She said sort of jokingly but then swallowed. "Too bad that won't happen. Anyways...... Anything new other than that?" She asked. Breezebell was looking around for butterflies to chase still acting like a foal.

Starsummer: she nodded. "Which herd was it?"

Emberblaze's head dropped. "No. He sent us away because he wants to talk to our mother privatly." Magicpetal nickered at the sisters. "Hello!!!!" she whinnied back to Breezebell

(I feel like I haven't been on this RP in too long XD)

Horizongold saw Brightwing across the clearing and saw him send his foals away after greeting them, which seemed odd. He didn't spy on him, as Magicpetal had, but he walked over to the triplets. "Hey guys," he said. "What's up with Brightwing? Did he tell you why he's back?"

Redmoon pricked her ears to Emberblaze and his sisters trotting towards her. "Hi" She said before preening some of her feathers. Breezebell galloped up to them and flared her wings. "Hello!" She exclaimed.

( back )

Brightwing took a deep breath before beginning. "Well, I've been working with other Herds, trying to help spread peace. It was starting to work a few month ago, then got bad again. So I had to go back. That's where I've been going. This is highly clasified, but you need to know because peace is finally settled in one of the Herds. The whole Herd agreed to peace. So I can finally stay here with you." He nuzzled her. "That was ever better then a whole Herd who wanted peace."

(brb gotta eat)

Emberblaze nodded and turned around and trotted toward Redmoon, Magicpetal and Goldenstream following behind him.

Once they were out of earshot, Starsummer turned all of her attention her her mate.

(Idk why I didn't make the time for it for so long.)

( brb )

Brightwing sighed deeply. "I've..." He looked down at his listening foals. "Guys, I know I just got back, but I need to tell your dam something in private."

(same. I lov this rp)
