( Somehow I don't find that comforting )

"Mommy?" she whispered. She opened her eyes, listening intently. There was silence, except for a few moans and sobs echoing from the plains. On tip-toe, she walked out from the bushes. "Mommy?" she neighed, swinging her head from side to side in desperation. Suddenly, she smelled it. The sharp, metallic scent of blood. "Mommy?!"

"Gemma, I'm here..." She said softly, nuzzling her. "Are you okay?!".

"I'm fine, mommy," she rushed into her mother's chest, curling her head under her neck and closing her eyes tight. "I--I was near the forest when it all started. I stayed there when I heard the noises, the screams. . ." she gave a small sob. "What happened, mommy? Is everyone all right?"

"Help, please...." She whimpered, pulling herself some more out of the bush, streaks of shining, deep red blood following her on the ground.

"Shhh," Remus approached touching her withers comfortingly. "It's all right. It's over." He helped her out of the bush, pulling branches aside to make her path easier. "Just lie down right here, you'll be more comfortable."

Esther, crying quietly, laid down painfully and yelped. "It hurts...." She said.

Adam limped over, "Are... You alright, Phoebe?!" He asked.

"Not really. They c-came over and killed the filly almost instantly," she cried, motioning to the dead soul spread across her back, blood dripping down onto her belly. "Then the stallions noticed I was pregnant so they kicked my stomach...I tried to fight back but my energy was bad...They managed to black me out and leave my skin torn up like the rats they are!" She shook her head and held back her tears. "Are you okay?"

"No Gemma... Some horses got killed, and some got hurt. You need to nurse, then we'll leave..." She said softly, cuddling her close.

"You'll be okay." Ira sobbed. "Just have a rest."

"I know," he hummed soothingly. He glanced over at Ira, and gave a weak smile. He turned back to Esther and began licking her wounds, cleaning them. The cuts were many, and flowing a dark river of crimson onto the ground below. "Take deep breaths," he mumbled in between licks, trying to keep his own panic under control.

Apollo moaned and woke up, blinking rapidly and looking at Yang. He half smiled casually, and looked at her. "Hey Yang, l-long time n-no see." He said in a very raspy voice. "And th-thank you." He said, becoming serious again.

She simply nodded to him and moved over to Sprite, grimacing at the taste of blood as she placed the sheets of moss. Seeing that she would need much more, Yang bolted away to find more moss.

Adam ignored her question, "Did they... Kill it?" He asked, meaning her unborn foal.

Gemma shook her head firmly. She couldn't eat, her stomach felt like it had tied itself into a dozen knots. "Where's Esther? And Chance? And Ira?" she whispered, eyes wide. "And what about you, mommy? I smell blood. It isn't you. . . is it?" she whimpered.

Esther obeyed, and closed her eyes, trying to not give in to the sleep she felt coming on. She tried breathing deeply like Remus said, each breath raspy and painfilled. She did her best not to cry, and scream in pain, so she kept her mouth closed tightly.
