Heart Broken.

Death dodged Angus's kick and stood infront of Royal protectively, "No stallion. This is not Tio. This is Royal, her twin sister!" He explained quickly before the stallion lashed out at him again. Death looked back at Royal and pushed his rump to her chest, telling her to move back incase this stallion tried to start a fight.

Royal looked at Death and moved back a couple metres

Angua snorted and landed on the ground"tio has no twin sister!"h growled

Death moved forward a couple of paces, "Yes. Tio has a twin. I know how you feel, she has hurt me to." He assured, not looking back at Royal but trying to calm Angus.

Angus snorted and glared at Royal"how can i be sure you aren't lieing?"he asked"you could be her mate, and just say that she has a twin sister"

"Stallion." Death sighed. "Please work with me here. Tio has hurt me too. I made the same mistake when I saw Royal too, but trust me, you'll regret it once you hurt her." He snorted, pinning his ears slightly and shaking his coat as a warning to leave the mare alone.

Royal watched Deah then glanced at Angus

Angua snorted and reared"i don't believe you!"he growled"show me proof she's is Tio's twin sister."he said as he landed on the ground

Death looked back at Royal. "Royal, come forward. Proof please." He snorted, unsure of how she would do it but he would stay by her side, protecting her from this angry stallion.

Royal came forward and stood next to Death then thought for a moment and sighed"for one, i have a bigger snip then Tio and i dont have 4 even socks, Tio does same with our stars, hers is perfect, mine isn't, they are all little things and not really noticeable unless you actually look"

Angua snorted, not sure what to do now

Death nodded, all these things about Tio and Royal were facts. He nickered softly and waited for Angus, hopefully he would believe her.

Angua nodded"i can believe all that...but seeing as i can't find Tio any where her twin sister will have to do!"he snorted adn lunged at Royal, grabbed her neck, drawig blood then threw her to the ground and reared, about to land on her neck agian

Death felt fire burn inside of him as Angus knocked Royal to the ground. He let out a high-pitched squeal and charged at him, smashing his shoulder full blast into Angus's chest, sending him immediately to the ground. Death flared his nostrils wide and snapped his teeth dangerously close to Angus's neck, where one of his important vein's laid under his skin. He could of taken Angus's life there and then, but decided not to. Death reared and landed on the side of Angus's rump, hearing a few cracks inside of his body as his heavy hooves landed. Death bared his teeth and backed away from him, he walked over to Royal, nuzzling her gently. He nickered softly and helped her up, deciding she'd need his help, he swung her front legs over his strong, broad back and gently dragged her over to a river where he could wash her wounds.

Royal looekd at Death and smiled"thank you"she said quietly"i'm not sure what i'de do if you were'nt here.."

Angua squealed in apin

Death dropped Royal in the stream gently, "Lucky I was here." He muttered and a half-smile creased through his face.

Royal smiled"yeah.."she said and looked at Death

Death washed Royal's wounds carefully and stepped back, going to graze and let her finish up herself.

Royal washed the rest of her wounds and stepped out of the stream and shook off then walked up to Death"thanks again.."she said and looked over at Angua who was staggering to his feet

Angus staggered to his feet, glared at Death then at Royal icyly then slowly walked away

Death nodded and lowered his head to graze, keeping a wary eye on Angus, just to be aware if he decided to return and challenge him.

Royal took a step to the side away from Death, not to be rude, but just to give him his space and she started grazing

Angus walked away

Death nodded and walked into the forest, munching on a few raspberry bushes as he watched his surroundings. After satisfied, he trotted out to the meadow, bits of red smeared onto his black coat, looking like blood but t'was just raspberry juice.

Royal saw Death, thinking the red smudges were blood and trotted up to him"you okay?"she asked

Death chuckled, looking at Royal, all he said was "Raspberrys." Still chuckling in his deep, but friendly tone.

"oh.."Royal said, feeling really stupid now and lowered her head slightly

Death gently nuzzled Royal's cheek and pulled himself back. "I would of thought blood too if I hadn't of known about my raspberry issue." He snorted, hoping to lift her spirits and not be so ashamed because of a silly question.

Royal raised her head and smiled"really?"she asked and giggled

Death nodded and gave a vague smile, nipping Royal's rump gently and pranced off, lifting his knees high, daring her to come after him.
