Wishing he could hide behind his mothers tail he snorted and moved to the grass away from the bee.

"Bees shouldn't be that big!" he huffed and lowered his head content to forget the episode which was quite unstallionly and he just had to do it in front of fillies to make it worse!

He knew in his wisdom of all 8 months that colts should not be afraid of a bumble! A colt his uncles had taught him never showed fear!

( i might vanish my tooth is killing me!)

(Aww Okie, bye Silver :) )

Starlight snorted "You feel bad? Why? It's not your fault. I chose to jump in and fight, you shouldn't feel bad... But tell you what, how about we forget that ever happened?" She asked with a minor head tilt. She let out a small laugh when Tex fell over "Wow drama queen not gonna put up a fight?" She asked trying to sound disappointed, she helped him back up as best she could then stood back and nodded "Yes please! I wanna know if they're okay, and who's separated" She said hobbling out looking back at Isabella, Isa nodded but didn't follow, Starlight understood that Isabella wanted to make Gem feel better so she looked forward as she got out of the cave she scanned the area before walking a certain direction "Maybe if we split up than we'd all have a better chance at finding the others?" She asked staking out which way she'd go

________ Isabella

She saw Starlight looking at her and nodded "I'll catch up" She said, Isi walked to the corner and sat next to Gem "Hey, it's okay! He just needs time I guess, but at least you still got me?" She said trying to be optimistic, she nuzzled Gem's neck gently "Did you want me to try and talk to him?" She offered with a smile

_____________ Nala

The golden filly tilted her head as the colt retreated, she trotted after him "What's wrong?" She asked "Was it that scary?* She asked looking for the bee

Tex snorted back, matching her tone. "Of course I feel bad. It should've been me, but i froze." He grumbled, then nodded vigorously. "Good idea. Poof. Forgotten." He paused. "Who ar we going looking for?" He asked with an innocent grin, then followed her. "Sure. Meet up at the cave in ten minutes." He chirped, trotting off, ignoring the stinging of his wounds. He searched for the rest of the herd, coming upon Willow and Lismore after a couple minutes. "Hey! Are you all okay? We're meeting at a cave not far from here. Starlight, Isabella, Stone, Sapphire, and Gem are all there." He commented, pausing and nipping at his seal brown sides that were streaked with silver brindle.

(Sapphire is in the cave already)

Starlight closed her eyes to think "Umm... So Sapphire ended up at the cave which leaves Lismore, Willow, Tiger, and a few others (The NPC's)" Starlight said firmly sure of herself, she scanned around before nodding"Okay, but I might take a little longer than 10 minutes" She informed "So don't go losing hairs over me being a little late" She grinned before splitting off, she hobbled, getting the hang of three-leg walking, she picked it up to a trot, deciding to head back to the clearing to see if any of the herd had retreated to there, and to wash her leg in the water, though Starlight dreaded the pain she knew she was in for once she submerged her leg under the water, as she trotted along she called out for the others seeing who was near. She came out into the clearing to see some of the foals from the herd who had made their way back to the clearing, that golden filly who had warned them about the predators, and a new colt. She nickered to them "Are you guys alright? There's a cave in the woods where we're all regrouping, I'll take you all there soon, I just need to quickly wash myself" Starlight said to the herd members and new foals, she glanced their way as she passed "You two can follow too if you want safety" She offered, Starlight stopped at the Waters edge and held her breath mentally preparing herself, she took a few bold steps in, her back right leg cocked high, she finally just lrt herself fall in so it was forced to get wet, Starlight winced and groaned in pain as the water stung, but soon the pain eased and Starlight could wash it better. After she had cleaned herself the dark brown filly came out of the water, she tested putting her full weight on her hind leg, but a pain shot through and she toppled over, getting back up she held it slightly off the ground this time and body shook the excess water and strides forward, her white speckles glimmering as the warm sun hit them, she went back towards the forest "Okay guys we should go before anything else happens" She asked them as she walked back towards the cave

__________ Nala

She turned as a filly exited the woods, she recognized her from before, she nodded at her "Thanks" She said discreetly looking at Starshine "We should try and join this herd, I think it'll be good" She said strongly waiting for the injured one to finish in the water before following behind the actual head members

______________ Willow

The palomino brindle pinto filly laid near a tree and looked at Lismore scanning the area, she got up as a crackle came through the bush, relief hitting her face as she saw Tex "Almanzo? Oh thank goodness you're okay! I'm sorry I left you there" She apologized feeling bad as she saw his wounds "Lismore told us to run, so I did" She said in a low voice "Does it hurt?" She asked edging closer and feeling around the area with the tip of her soft nose. She smiled lightly "The others are safe? I didn't know where Sapphire went, but thank you for telling me" She said with a grateful nod, her head turning to look at Lismore, waiting for him to come, she turned and followed Tex

(Up date me on this please I suck)

(Yay Ghost Light! You're on! And no you don't suck!)

(So basically everyone ate the berries and stuff, Isabella met Gem and Stone, Tiger joined, than a golden filly named Nala came out from the forest warning the herd of predators (That had just killed her mother), the herd freaked out, most running into the forest, some staying. Gem and Isabella were about to get eaten so Starlight jumped in and fought the wolves giving the others a chance to run, but a wolf took her by surprise, grabbing her leg and tearing into it, Tex jumped in too, so did Stone, giving her a chance to run to safety. Tex and Stone got hurt as well, by the end the herd was separated. But Starlight and Tex went out to regroup the rest of the herd and meet back at the cave)

I'm about to draw my characters so I'll be off and on but I'll still be playing :) )))

Tex flicked his tail as Willow spoke. "Don't apologize- you did the smartest thing. Staying would've only gotten you hurt." He offered a smile, then shook his head. He was lying, but... Meh. "I'm fine." He answered, then turned to head back towards the cave. When they both started following, he went into a Trot. Soon they were back at the cave, with Sapphire, Stone, Gem, Isabella, and hopefully Starlight and some others. Sadly, Starlight wasn't there yet, but Tex was going to wait.

Gem lifted her head when Tex walked in. She hadn't formally introduced herself, but she knew his name. She watched him from her sad little corner then sighed, lowering her head again over her legs.

Stone stood and shook then walked a small circle. His sides were cut and his neck scraped but overall he was okay. He glanced at Gem, sadness and guilt taking over his prideful body. He shouldn't have been so mean to her. He should've been okay with her attacking the wolves for him. But no. He was the older brother. HE was the one that was supposed to do the protecting. Not her! Stone pawed at the stone floor then looked up at Willow and Tex

Saphire trotted up to Willow. "Oh thank goodness you are alright!" She cried out as she slid to a stop and nuzzled her twin. She didn't even notice Tex standing beside her. She did a once over of her sisters body. "Are you alright?"
