"Move faster you useless b*tch."[/b] Her master barked at her as they moved toward auction rock, he bit her back leg to make her speed up, she obeyed and started into a trot. He had already beat her this morning and threatened to do much worse, she kept up the pace limping on her back leg. Once they reached the rock he shoved her forward making he back leg tense up and her yelp. She didn't understand why this male hated her, but she couldn't decide if being here was worse than staying with him. She walked over to a shady area and started licking a cut on her shoulder from her beating the night before, her first beating. She knew she had a lived a pretty sheltered life as a slave and she knew all she had been used to was over.

Skylark snuck along the rows of wolves. The sight of so many threatening beasts all at once scared him despite his great size and strength. A pack of wolves could take down the strongest horse in the world. He scanned the group of wolves, looking for a wolf that was lonely looking enough for him to snatch away. The stallion would probably end up with a few wolves to protect his mares from other wolves. They would be free, just like all of his herd members. Although he usually disliked wolves, he was not a fearful creature and he would never give up his beliefs on freedom for all creatures.
Skylark spotted a small female wolf. She seemed to be sulking in the background. No masters had approached her yet. The stallion slowly paced closer to her. His head was down, a sign of passiveness and peace. "Hello there. I am Skylark, leader of a herd located in the land called Canaa. There, horses who were enslaved are set free. I offer you freedom, too. You could have a mate if you like, too. What is your name?" A smile tugged at his long face. She had been injured previously, judging by that gouge on her shoulder. It could all be fixed when she traveled to paradise...

Purity looked up as two daggers landed in front of her, a horse stood in front of her. Wow she thought to herself, horses and wolves generally didn't usually like each other and this horse had offered her to join his herd. "What do you mean, sir? " she finally stammered out with a shaky voice. Purity wasn't a wolf who usually got confused by this had completely taken her by surprise. All in a few words the horse had offered her freedom, she started to wonder if the cut on her shoulder was worse than she thought and if she was hallucinating.

Skylark's muscles were tense. He hated the feeling around this place. So many wolves... It sent a shiver down his spine. The horse was unusually large but also very friendly as most who knew him found. He spoke in a soft tone to the wolf. "I need a protector, perhaps, to keep my herd safe from wolves. That is all you would have to do in return for freedom and the ability to free any of the other wolves you want for yourself." He understood that it would be hard being the only wolf in a group of horses. It would be implied that she would be able to gather mates or friends for herself.

To be free, and to be able to free others? Purity thought to her self. She had never even imagined that she would ever be free, much less the ability to free others. She was hoping that this just some cruel trick the horse was playing on her, but who knows she would just have to trust him. Purity stood up and nodded to the stallion, she hoped she addressed him in the correct way, she didn't really know how horses addressed each other. "My name is Purity ,sir, but most call me pure." What was her mother thinking when she named her? Purity often asked herself that question, though now her mother was nothing more than a distant memory.
It would take time for her to get used to being around horses, she would be the only wolf there, at least for a while. She turned her gaze back up to the equine, he seemed sincere and like her truly meant what he said, but she had never really known a horse before. Pure also hoped that the horses would accept her, them being free and all would they want a wolf around?

Skylark nodded. Purity... The name was so beautiful. Once that wound healed over, she would be quite the looker. Although the concept of having a wolf live on horse land was strange, Skylark was sure it would catch on. Most horses were scared of wolves, and if a pack of wolves attacked their herd it would be quite horrible.
Skylark spoke in the same soft whisper. "If you want to come, now is the time. I can't stay here too much longer before they scent me and hunt me down..." The large horse was easily three times the size of most of the wolves, but yet he was still quite afraid of them. He took off a stilted trot in the direction of Canaa.
