.Crawling.

[raven]

Rocket glanced around as her legs propelled her through the land, her held her moderatly low. The place had quite an eerie feel to it, yet she continued to walk. She had, after all, agreed to join Toxin. She had no thoughts of attempting to turn and flee, even though she hated being a slave. Either way, the Quarter horse mare resumed moving forward. Her dark brown eyes scanned everything around her, and she occasionally turned her head to look at something behind her as the followed the Stallion deeper into his land. She listened to the own sound of her hooves thudding dully against the ground, her ears laid back against her skull.

[arabelle]

He looked around his land with pride, what a perfect land fit for a perfect king. He turned around to look at the pretty mare behind him. He snickered a little before he came to stand beside her, "Do you not like my land?" He started circling her again while they were still walking forward at a very slow pace coming closer and closer then letting his ivrons rake across her back stopping to nibble her tail head. Fighting his hormones back into place he circled back around intill he was beside her again. He gave thought to testing her like he did with another mare to see if she had any defiance but he sighed his chest still hurt and he didn't feel like testing it out again on a pair of razor sharp daggers. He turned again to study her and reached down to nuzzle her lightly rewarding her for how good she was being. Then he turned away to walk in front of her they were in his land but not quite where he wanted them to be in his land.

[raven]

Rocket lifted her head slightly when Toxin turned to face her, and then questioned if she liked his land. She nodded her head at his question. "I do. It'll just take a bit to get used to." She answered truthfully. Her brown orbs followed him as he moved towards her, and then began to circle her, drawing closer each time until he brushed against her. She jumped slightly when he nibbled her near her tail, but she did nothing else aside from that. He then moved up beside her and nuzzled her, before beginning to walk again. She shook her head slightly to clear her chocolate-colored fringe out of her eyes, before she began to follow him once more, making sure to keep up. She walked quickly, but stayed behind the stallion instead of walking beside him.

[arabelle]

He rolled his orbs at her timidness but he guessed she didn't understand how he was yet but she would in time. Yes he was cruel and yes he liked his slaves but he like companionship to when he was in a good mood. He also liked having regular members of the herd to. He motioned with his head for her to come walk beside him. He was in a very good mood today and it showed besides he liked confusing the mares, and he actually liked her truthfulness. At least she spoke her mind.. most of the time. He snickered again they would never figure him out nor his ways.

[raven]

Rocket glanced up, nodding slightly when he motioned for her to come walk beside him. She increased her pace a bit, only slowing down when she was beside him and continuing forward at a steady walk. She had never been the kind of mare to shy away from someone, or refuse a request. She had learned from her previous master that if asked to do something, you did it right then. No hesitating, no staling, no refusing. Yes, the mare had been trained quite well. And she made sure to keep what she had learned in mind with her new master.

[arabelle]

He wondered at the mares quiet exterior if she was really that well trained or was she a time bomb waiting to go off? He really should test her he told himself to see if she would do as the other slave had. He sighed then then motioned for Rocket to stop so he could walk behind her. He watched her out of his evil ebony orbs before running his whiskered maw down her spine and stopped to nibble on her tail head gently then he lifted his maw back a little and sank his ivrons right in the fleshy part of her rump twisting his now red ivories slightly to induce more pain. He removed his ivories and waited to see if she would explode and ready to put her back down if she did. He wasn't usually intentional like this but he needed to know something and so he waited for her to do something.

[raven]

When Rocket noticed Toxin motion for her to stop, she did so, standing patiently. She watched the stallion as he moved around, nibbling her tail head gently once more. When he pulled away she stayed still, not expecting anything more. When he sunk his teeth into her rump and twisted slightly before pulling away once more, however, it took the mare by surprise. She threw her head back and neighed loudly, jolting forward a few steps. Shaking her head slightly, she snorted once before taking two steps back-- coming to stand in her original place. Her backside was in terrible pain, but what was to be expected? She couldn't have possibly expected him to be anything short of crude after a while. Rocket kept her gaze cast ahead of her, not looking back at him due to the pain that would reflect in her eyes. She simply stared forward, muscles tense, waiting.

[arabelle]

He smiled pleased greatly with this mare. Nothing fazed her. Still smiling he bent his head once more to lick her wound gently hoping to sooth her. He nuzzled her rump and continued to clean the bite. When he was done he came up to push her neck in a playful way before moving off again to walk beside her happy in a twisted way that finally here was a mare that did not show her pain and that did not lash out. He started thinking sometimes he moved a few select slave mares to regular herd mares and this mare her was a prime example. He reached over to lick her withers smiling warmly at her to put her at ease even though it was a fake smile because he was not warm and could never be but he could be rewarding and treat you right if you treated him right in return. He turned to her once more to say softly in his harsh vocals, "We're almost there." Then he turned to face the open land once more for he was so ready to get to his land it hurt to be away from it.

[raven]

Rocket flinched slightly when she noticed him bend his head once more, but relaxed slightly when realizing he was cleaning her wound, instead of harming her. She smiled slightly as he walked forward and nuzzled her neck playfully, before starting off again. She began to walk as well, staying by his side but never ahead of him. She smiled once more as he leaned over a licked her withers, announcing that they were almost to his land. She nodded her head slightly, lowering her head slightly and watching the ground as she walked, thinking. The mare was glad he hadn't harmed her all that much, but then again, she didn't know how long that would last. Living in the moment, she actually relaxed a bit and allowed herself to be a bit more aloof. It had been a while since she had gone untroubled and walked with a easy gait. She was glad she was finally able to again.

[arabelle]

He noticed she had relaxed a bit and his smile grew she was such a cute little mare he thought amused. He shook his head slightly so that his long thick forelock draped across his orbs watching her out of the corner of his orb the whole time. They finally stepped onto his land and he smiled a triumphet sick grin thinking that Rocket was his second slave in the last two days. "We're here." He said again in his harsh tones then he started to walk off to his watering hole but stopped remembering Rocket, He called out over his shoulder, "Do you want some water?" Making it a question and in turn giving her the option to refuse if she wanted to. He rocked back on his haunches and waited for her reply.

[raven]

The mare only lifted her head when she heard him announce that they had arrived. Rocket looked up, shaking her fringe out of her dark eyes once more before glancing around. She noticed out of the corner of her eye that he had started to walk away, but she made no move to follow him, as she hadn't been told to. Her auds perked forward, however, when he stopped and ask if she would like some water, awaiting her answer. Rocket thought for a moment, before nodding her head slightly. "Yes, thank you." She said, tone light yet audible. She turned her frame slightly and walked forward, strides low yet long as she watched the stallion.

[arabelle]

Again this mare surprised him but why should she he thought she just wanted some water. So arguing with himself for reasons unknown he led her to the water before bending to quench his own thirst. His dark orbs lit up slightly when he thought of an idea. He let his dark maw linger in the water getting as much water as he could in it before pulling it back up again. He turned to Rocket and sprayed her with the water, then he sprang back getting ready to dash off then back again. Because even though she was a slave she could still play around or would she he thought. He waited to see what she would do.

[raven]

Rocket had followed Toxin, still watching the ground as she walked. So, she was stunned when the stallion sprayed her with water. She took a step back, watching as he sprang back as well. Smiling slightly, Rocket acted if she were going to charge at Toxin, but stopped at the last second and hung a sharp turn to the right. The Quarter Horse mare bounded into the water, smiling as the liquid splashed up around her. Though it had only drenched her as well, she could only home the water struck the stallion up on dry lands, too.

[arabelle]

He jumped with shock as she sprayed some water back on him and acted as if she was going to charge. His dark kissers drew back in a harsh smile as he watched her. So the mouse comes out of the hole. He thought with amusement, but then snorted as he was drenched in water when she jumped into the clear water. His rough laugh erupted from his maw as he stood there dripping. He then galloped forward to launch himself into the water beside her landing with an almighty splash that sent a wave up to come envelop the mare beside him. As he wheeled back around to race toward the shore his mass moved water and sheets of it feel in his wake. Finally he heaved himself up the bank to stand proudly, his pelt gleamed an ebony fire heightened by the water he was dripping from. He snorted a couple of times and rocked back on his haunches watching her carefully to see what would happen next.

[raven]

Rocket laughed slightly when he followed her into the water, only soaking the mare more. She smiled, watching as he galloped back to the shore before turning and watching her. She snorted, shaking her head slightly. The chocolate-colored mare began to wade around in the water a bit, making sure to walk slowly. The water splashed around her hooves slightly as she picked up her pace a bit. The mare then turned toward she shore and trotted in that direction, snorting once more when her hooves hit dry land. She looked up at Toxin, smiling, and made her way towards him. She circled behind him once, so she came to a halt standing beside him. She neighed softly, nuzzling him gently before laying her head on his back. She had no idea how he would react to this, as each stallion seemed to react to things in a different way; but what was life without risk?
