chapter one
She watched as the sun lazily set, Silverrose eyes watch for any movement. "The hunter should be back by now" She mutter, more to herself then any one else. Then she saw a speak appear on the plains, she squinted he eyes, at first they appeared to be centaurs, then at a dawning horror, it was humans and the bull men.Fear crept into her body, she gallop off to the village, she had to warn them.
She went as fast her her horse legs could go, but it felt like she was running in quick sand, by the time she got there she was out of breath, her mother trotted out to see what every one was abuzz about, a basket of roots in her right arm, her lovely raven black hair was lose, she looked at her daughter's eyes, Silverose silver eyes made contact with her mothers blue ones."humans" she weezed "coming, this way"
gasps filled the smalle village, but it was to late, the sound of beating hooves filled the air, silverrose felt her arm be grabbed, she was about to drop kick whoever snagged her when she heard her mother sweet voice "here!" She hands her a pouch "run to the mountains, quickly!" She pushed Siverrose into the chaos. As she weaved through the small huts, the screaming mothers as they fought the humans and bull men for their foals filled her ears. She quickly jumped over a fallen horse and rider, almost there, just a few more quick strides. a round brown things went around her neck, she was jerked back, she clawed at the thing.
a rope! she thought in horror. She pulled and fought the rope, nearly choking herself. She whipped around to see who hold the rope, a bull man, or know among humans, elfs and other races, a minotaur. He command the horse to back, dragging Silverrose, and chocking her, leaving her no choose to follow.
The Minotaur, a tall blacked fur bull head man dragged her to the small group of other centaurs, most of them foals. She scanned the group for her mother, the fair skinned, with raven black hiar and rare ice blues eyes didn't appear in the group.
The minotaur lead her to some other foals, most of them around ten humans years, but a few her age. She kept on hoping, praying that the hunters would come back, but as the humans slowly walked around them as if choosing a horse to be broke, to be lost of it spirit. One of them, a male pointed at her and said something to the minotaur that had caught her, she started at him blankly. Slowly the Minotaur got down the horse, he had some roped in his hand, he talk to her in soft, soothing voice. he gently, to her surprise, tied her hands. he then got back in the horse, a day that started so beautifully, has became a nightmare.
The started to move the group, leaving the wailing mothers to watch, unable to help in fear of death. Silverrose tried to see if her mother one among them, but she was jerk forward. She closed her eyes, tears rain down slowly, she hold the memory of her mother heavenly face, with long flowing raven black hair, eyes as blue as ice strong in her mind. What has she done to deserve this? Which god has she angered to be torn away from her mother, her father?
Will I every see them again? She thought sorrowfully. By then, the sun has set, and the first starts started to appear, she looked up at the dazzling stars, among her people they meant hope, but they seem to be mocking her now.
Chapter 2
Silverrose throat felt dry, how long have they been traveling, days, no weeks the last full moon was 2 nights ago. the group stopped as the humans gave out water, they are greedily drank, it was never enough. By the time she was finish with her ration (SP) it was time to move, but instead of walking they were force to gallop, her hooves felt like they were about to give out. She saw what happen to weaker foals, she wasn't going to see them, she was going to
live.
She watch as the scenery changed, the plains became lush grass lands, over time the smell if a humans and other things filled her nostrils. Were was she? she were corralled in a pen of some a sort, she watches things, mostly humans, orcs and other things. She felt ready to collapse from exhaustion. Then one of the watchers caught her eyes, he had a natural grace to his steps, his clothing was of a leather she never seen. He turned to face her, and to her shock he was elf, he had grey slanted eyes, his ears like her was pointed, his hair was stark light blonde, he seemed to be looking at a sheet of paper, and back at her ,as if trying to see if her face match that paper.
Baldar looks at the picture again, then back at Silverrose. this can't be the last centaur magic user, can it? Nut the pictures match. He closes his eyes, his people despise this sales, tearing away children from their world, their families, and they call the centaurs barbaric. He looked at Silverose again.
She looked to be around fourteen human years.She had a blue roan horse body, her skin was a fair color, rare among centaurs. He looked at her face next, what most likely startled him the most was her eyes, they were silver like the best silver work from dwarfs, he then look at her hair, it was a deep black with silver-white mix in.
Silverrose felt uneasy with the elf staring at her, she head to talk to one of the younger foals who was crying, she sand softly to him, hoping to calm him down.She watch those that were closer to her age, she looked into their dull lifeless eyes.They have lost hope.
No, I am not going to become like them, she thought.
The minotaur that capture her came in with a few of the humans that were kinder to them, and start to cut the ropes off their wrists,Silverrose nodded thankfully to the minotaur while he cut the ropes, she looked at her wrist, they were raw and blistered, she rolled her wrists and wince, they were sore.
As the minotaur head to one of the foals, a colt around her age to cut off the rope. The colt reared up, and a sickening sound of a head being crushed under a hoof filled the corral, Silverrose whipped around, she looked at horror as the minotaur fell into a lifeless heap. The colt yelled 'come on!" he gallop to the other humans, they yelp and moved out of the way.
Silverrose came out of shock, no this is not the way! she trotted in front of a human, the colt snarled "why do you do this Silverrose? they took us away from our families! they should pay!" his green eyes glisten in the glaring sun, he wanted revenge.
She shook her head "No Jadewolf! this is not the ways, They will be judge when the gods deem it right."
Baldar watch in a mix of horror and and awe.
Jadewolf snarled, he reared up. He didn't care if he toke out both Silverrose and the human. Silverrose kicked him in the chest he colasped back. Quickly humans, minotaur who every was free came in and put ropes on the young colt. The human that Silverrose saved looked at Her, "thank you" He said softly before running off.
