(I think I'm going to make part 20 right now)

Darkstone: He tensed at first, but immediately relaxed and nuzzled her. "I've missed you, too." he whispered

(Umm.. I think so)

(Yea, I guess)

(I want to check on this: Jaggedwing’s injuries are a broken rear leg, five broken ribs, possible concussion, and a bunch of cuts?)

Darkstone:

He tensed at first, but immediately relaxed and nuzzled her. "I've missed you, too." he whispered

Whiteshadow:

Whiteshadow stared at him, she had not been expecting this, "Darkstone, I-I... I don't know what to say. I missed you so much, and I thought you were mad at me fore some reason." she leaned into nuzzle the stallion

Darkstone:

"Look, I know you must be a little mad at me and I need to get one thing off my chest. I would never avoid you. I never meant to. I just got so stressed out when I learned that Flame herd was planning an uprise. I can't take it back, but I can say I'm sorry."

Twigstrike:

He looked up from grazing just in time to see the pretty little chestnut filly leaving the medicine mare den. Up close she was even more pretty then she was form a distance, her dark chestnut coat looked like it was fire and her purple feathers complimented her fiery coat perfectly.

Whiteshadow:

She looked at the silver dapple stallion, even though she was mildly mad at him, Whiteshadow couldn't help admitting that he still looked handsome as ever. She smiled, "Hi Darkstone. I'm doing great, how are you doing?"

Darkstone:

He sighed in relief and went in. He went directly to Whiteshadow. "Hello, Whiteshadow! How are you doing? I-I haven't seen you in a while." he said, his heart fluttering

Mistcloud:

Mistcloud nodded, "Yes, good idea." she said to Bronzewing, "I'll go round up the other council members." Mistcloud trotted away, and returned in a few minuets with the others.

Whiteshadow:

At the sound of Darkstone's voice her heart leaped with joy, but that was suddenly replaced by frustration. Whiteshadow had missed Darkstone so much, but it seemed like he had been avoiding her for the last few moons. The pinto mare took deep breath to calm herself, maybe Darkstone was here to make up for their lost time, with that in mind, Whiteshadow poked her head out of the den, "Of course you can come in." she said.

Coalblaze nodded weakly, fearful for his over-stallion. "I can not imagine the pain Twigstrike might be feeling for his grand sire.." Coalblaze said.

Mintcreek:

"Well, when I found him he was badly injured. He had cuts all over his body, not to mention several broken bones, plus he's unconcious. But, I fixed him up the best I could and we brought him back here for more professional treatment. So, he should be fine. He's strong, He'll make it."

Breezebell sighed heavily. "Phew!" She said and walked slowly back out of the den and saw the strange steed she had seen earlier beside Jaggedwing. She came to the conclusion that they were relatives somehow and sighed.

( *Breezebell )

“I hope so, Breezebell,” Cloudroot said. “He is badly injured, but Mintcreek got to him quickly. It is likely he will recover completely, but it will take a while.”

Coalblaze nodded. He leaned off of his injured hoof. "Hmm....... Is Jaggedwing alright?" He asked.

Mintcreek:

"I think so...you guys have proved that you are great warriors and that you know what to do in dire situations, not to mention your over-stallion didn't join with Flame herd during the attack." she explained

Coalblaze blinked. "Do you think Cave Herd will be allowed to stay here now?" He asked.

Redmoon: She trotted over to the triplets and greeted them softly. "Hey guys!" She said and grazed the tips of the grass.

( back )

Mintcreek:

She snorted loudly. "Ok then. Do you have any questions for us, Coalblaze?" she asked, ignoring Embermoon

Goldenstream:

She huffed. "Finally." and she flew toward the stream. She took a long sip, then headed into the valley to rest and graze.

Magicpetal was already there, grazing beside Emberblaze, talking quietly.

Goldenstream cantered over to her siblings and they greeted each other and talked.

Breezebell heaved with relief and went to take a drink at the stream. She took one quick drink and then flew into the air and headed towards the Medicine Den. She landed outside and looked around. She saw Jaggedwing on the ground, and flared her wings and raised a hoof in shock. She stared at him, fearing the worst and trotted into the Medicine Den and up to Cloudroot. "Will Jaggedwing be okay Cloudroot?" She asked urgently.

Embermoon snickered. "Oh don't be like that. See, he answered no that he hasn't," She said, winking at Mintcreek. Coalblaze looked back and forth between the two, confused. "Okay......," He said in a very polite tone.

Mintcreek:

"Embermoon!!!" she said, staring at her, astonished she would ask such a question. "That is his own personal buisness! Don't ask him such a thing." she glared

Darkstone:

He hadn't seen Whiteshadow for close to a year and he missed his friend. He had grown, just like everyone else. His creamy mane was long and thicker and his coat was shiny. He trotted toward the medicne mare den and stopped at the entrance. "May I come in?" he asked

(I know that it was minsummer. I meant like once in their life-time Embermoon flung a snowball at her. And YAASSS DARKSHADOW)

(**questioning

Also, I thought it was Mid or late summer, like August)

Bronzewing stamped a hoof. “Quesrioning in front of the council,” he said.

Gemfrost:

Around her, the other yearlings were starting to shift their hooves ever so slightly, clearly a sign that they weren't going to be able to stand there much longer. Gemfrost didn't blame them, in fact, she herself was inching stench out her legs. Finally, she heard her mother order the yearlings to stand down, and told them to go get a drink form the stream. Gemfrost followed her mothers orders, and headed over to the stream.

Twigstrike:

Twigstrike grazed a little ways away from Jaggedwing, ready to jump to his grandsire's defense at the slightest hint of trouble. Jaggedwing was still unconscious from his fall, but Whiteshadow had assured him that the old over-stallion would recover quickly.

Mistcloud:

The council mare looked up at Bronzewing, and saw the two Flame Herd pegasi. Mistcloud nuzzled Pearlsong, "Go see if you can find your sire," she instructed her filly and she scampered off. Then she turned her attention Bronzewing, "I see." she said, "What do you propose?"

(Okay, two things:

1. I was pretty sure that it was spring/early summer, and I can personally vouch for the fact that Snow Herd territory would not have snow at that time of year

2. I think it's time to bring back Darkshadow [Darkstone and Whiteshadow])

( XD )

Coalblaze wondered what they would think of his answer, but Embermoon only kept glancing at Mintcreek with a smirk.

Embermoon glanced at her with a smirk. "Have you ever been in love?" Embermoon asked Coalblaze, glancing and smirking at Mintcreek. Coalblaze cocked his head, shocked by the question. "Well.... No. I don't think so...... Many mares have had interest in me but I am only told that long after and I am shocked. I have never actually been in love before," He explained.

Mintcreek:

She nodded. "Ah. I see." she thought for another questions. "I'm running out of questions to ask." she said aloud, hoping Embermoon would have one.

Coalblaze: "It always chills me and the morning smells are baffling," He added.

Coalblaze thought for a moment. "It was not extremely cold, and not warm. It was tolerable, like a fall morning," He replied.

Mintcreek:

She chuckled. "Yeah...not a good feeling. Anyways-" she was cut off when she realised that Coalblaze was looking at her. She smiled at the ground and continued. 'Anyways, uh- was Cave herd hot or cold?"

Coalblaze looked at Mintcreek longingly, wishing he had friends like that.

Embermoon snickered quietly. Coalblaze chuckled with realization. "Like I said, unpleasant," He chuckled.

Mintcreek:

"Yep. Sounds familiar." she said, glaring at Embermoon who had once pelted her with a snowball while she was sleeping.

Embermoon smiled even brighter and nudged Morningcreek. Coalblaze saw this and glanced at Embermoon. "Waking up to snow doesn't sound that pleasant...... When you get hit in the face by a snow ball," He said with a smirk.

Mintcreek:

Her eyes twinkled as she imagined that. "Wow! Sounds really awesome. In Glacier herd, when you wake up, you wake up to snow. Lots and lots of snow." she chuckled

Embermoon shifted and looked away. Coalblaze nodded. "It's like every day when you wake up and come out of the cave, it's like being born again and again, seeing the world in a new light from the cave. Sometimes, if we're lucky, we find caves with crystals and hold ceremonies there," He continued.

Mintcreek:

"Yea, I bet it's a little colder." she said. "Tell me about Cave herd? What was it like living in caves?" Mintcreek asked, whipping her tail at Embermoon

Coalblaze smiled warmly. "it's just fine. A little colder than what I'm used to, but great," He said. Embermoon smiled so brightly at Mintcreek it was unbelievable

Mintcreek: "Greetings." she said, swallowing her fear 'How do you like Glacier herd so far?" she asked, trying to spark conversaion

Embermoon stopped abruptly in front of the Cave Herd steeds. The stallion was in front of them, facing away, and grazing. "Excuse me," Embermoon said. Coalblaze raised his head curiously but then glared. "Yes?" He asked, releasing his sharp gaze. "I'm Embermoon and this here is my best friend Mintcreek," She said, gesturing towards Mintcreek. Coalbalze nodded. "I am Coalblaze," He said in a deep and low vioce.

Mintcreek:

"Embermoon!! I'm gonna kill you!!!!! Let me go!!!!!!" she said to her friend, trying to pull her wing out of Embermoon's grasp

( Yeah... )

Embermoon laughed. "Just because of the way he looks........ You really should get to know him first!" She snickered. "Now, come with me," She said, dragging Mintcreek with her to the Cave Herd steeds.

(I don't think Dragon's here)

Meanwhile, Bronzewing was with the Flame Herd couple. He was searching for Mistcloud. After a search, he found her nursing Pearlsong next to the path leading to Crimsonstorm’s grave. He approached her, the two Flame Herd steeds in tow. “Excuse me,” he said. “I would explain why I want to talk, but the reason seems obvious.”

Mintcreek:

"Please, don't tell anyone, but when I came back from the lake, he just...was so handsome.....he was....curious about Glacier herd and I thought that he was kinda....cute." she said, blushing

Embermoon stopped and looked at her with a smirk. "Alright. Tell me," She said urgently.

Mintcreek:

"Embermoon!!! No! No! Fine!! I'll tell you why I like him, just please don't tell anyone else." she pleaded

Embermoon looked at her suspicously. "He just I don't know what? You know what, we are gonna go talk to him!" She cackled dragging her friend away.

Mintcreek:

She punched her friend in the shoulder. "I don't know! He just......I don't know."

Embermoon laughed. "Oh no it's TOTALLY not obvious," She said heavily with sarcasim.

"He was also glaring at us, as if he knew that we were his mortal enemies!" She cackled. "What is it about him that you like so much?!" She pushed.

Mintcreek:

She glanced behind her and gasped. "How did you know!? Is it obvious?!" she cried

Embermoon's spirit fell. "Why? I just want to know who it is to give him a piece of my mind!" She teased. She looked at the Cave Herd steeds and saw a stallions glaring at them. He was a grey Cave Herd steed, black mane and tail, and light pink wings. "OH Is that him?!" She asked tilting her head towards the steed glaring at the sideways.

Mintcreek:

She stubornly shook her head. "Nu-uh." she said

Embermoon laughed quietly and kept up with her friend with ease. "just point him out to me. is he a Cave Herd steed?" She pushed.

Mintcreek:

She jumped and lashed her tail. "A what?! Uh uh. No way. No how." She trotted away with her head high and her tail streaming behind her.

Embermoon. She almost squealed for once. "Oh you have got a crush! Point him out to me!" She exclaimed.

Mintcreek:

She looked at her friend's hooves. "I-I don't know. I came back from washing my wings off in the lake and now I can't breath, my ears are hot, and I can't get this one stallion off my mind...I don't know what it is....I'm sure it's nothing." she said, shrugging

Embermoon trotted up to Mintcreek and felt like something was wrong. "What is it Mintcreek? You seem stressed..... Or something," She said concerned.

Mintcreek lashed her tail at a fly and put her back to the steeds, angry at herself. She dipped her head to graze and stuffed the idea about the stallion out of her head and into a place where it couldn't bother her anymore.

Coalblaze glared a t her hard once but then eased up and looked away, flaring his wings and stretching them. He began to talk with the others and began grazing again. He kept one hoof up, because there was a cut right above the hoof where the skin was.

Mintcreek:

She looked at one stallion in particular. For some reason, she felt her ears get hot. "What?" she whispered to herself and looked away.

( His curhs is TBD so, YEAH!!! THAT WOULD WORK PERFECTLY!!!!!!!! EEEEIIIYYYY!!!!!!!!!! )

(IDEA!!!!!!! What if Coalblaze and Mintcreek fell in love!? Or des he have a crush on someone else?)

Coalblaze turned his head to face a mare nickering at them. He narrowed his eyes and blushed, a little embarrassed.

Redmoon: She moaned wanting to be out of position. They had been standing there for almost an hour now.

Mintcreek:

After she washed her wings, she went back to the valley to rest. She stood a the tree line border and looked out. She looked at the Cave herd steeds, so curiously looking at everything around them and she nickered, amused.

Coalblaze: He was with the group of Cave Herd steeds grazing. He looked around at everything and saw that this envirement was much different than his homeland but he didn't it expect to be very similar.

Mintcreek:

The bay mare smiled and nodded. "Of course!" she said, sweetly and left the cave to wash her bloody wings.

Twigstrike:

The roan stallion, who was standing beside the still unconscious Jaggedwing, dipped his head, "Thank you for healing by grandsire." he said to the medicine mares, and Mintcreek.

Mintcreek blushed. "Thank you. I'm a little out of practice and I was only trying to help." she said, folding her wings on her back

( Okay XD )

(I'll go up-date it then)

(Oh, right, Starsun)

( Okay then they are Red Herd steeds )

(Desert Herd already has a lead mare)

(Red Herd is the only one open)

( K, COMING and, THANK YOU )

(Nightmist, BTW i commented on OC chat)

(I think the actually Desert herd is still open)

( Okay )

(Umm... I'll brb)

( Ah darnet..... Then which herds are still open? That were originally in Desert Herd's territory? )

(They already excepted. I made a comment a wile back from Ginderblaze's prospective that Beach Herd was one of the herds that I said had agreed to join up with Flame Herd)

( yeah I just checked XD. Will, then doesn't that mean that Beach Herd can refuse? )

(Flame Herd isn't capturing, they're forming alliances)

(They don't, at least not one that I'm aware of)

( Oh..... Will that changes quite a few things.... Nobody told me which herds had been captured............................ )

(Yea, and I think beach herd already has an over-stallion and lead-mare.)

(Beach herd has already joined up with Flame Herd)
