West never really got angry... he was a gentle giant with a disposition of a teddy bear. He loved to give horses second chances, and third chances, and fourth chances... but when some strange stallion came galloping in and questioned his authority he got a little angry. West could easily hold his own herd, and he would. He watched the other stallion with hard eyes, all the gentle gone from his brown gaze. When Dixie had Lazarus stop nipping the stallion, West did give a small nod of thanks.

Dixie stepped back and nuzzled Lazarus towards the woods. He obediently crawled under the brush and climbed into the nearest tree, watching from above.

Mystery looked at West, then Dixie and Macy, then Brave. she wasn't sure what would happen next, she would occasionally flick her tail and shake her pelt

Scarlet stood there, squished between Macy and Dixie. The little white filly pushed forward between the two mares. Dixie side stepped and Macy snorted and nipped at her foals scruffs of mane. Scarlet squealed and did a hop step forward, coming head to chest with the stallion. She scrambled backward and tripped over her own back legs, toppling over backwards. She stood up and shakes her head while Dixie held back a laugh. Macy snorted at her younger sister but held her own laugh back.

West finally flicked his tail with a small sigh. He wasn't going to wait his whole life to see how the stallion would react. He had to chuckle slightly at the foals fumbling, taking a couple steps back before glancing around

Dixie grinned before backing up. She wanted nothing to do with this stallion. She turned and walked away, her black tail flicking anxiously behind her. She honestly hoped someone would follow her but neither Macy nor Scarlet followed. She lowered her head and continued to walk away.

West watched Dixie walk away for a moment before casting a glance at the stallion, then following. He did a little turn / sidetrack and went under a tree, stopping to observe everything and let out a giant breath

Dixie flicked her tail and pawed at the ground. The was uneasy about this new horse. She tossed her head slightly then her eyes flicked to West when he gave a large breath. -is that a sigh of relief or a sigh of oh no?- Dixie lowered her head lower

Mystery was nervous, she wasn't a fan of stallions, not since Flame. She felt uneasy as she felt something seemed to be wrong with her, she saw Dixie and West were further away so she felt safer to talk to Macy, She walked over to Macy and asked quietly "Hey Macy.. Can i talk to you?.. But not here, out of the herd.. I don't want to tell anyone except you..." Mystery turned and headed slowly to the stream, stopping to see if Macy would come

(Guys, I have not been on here fo THE LONGEST TIME EVER O.o sorry...)

Moon yawned, bored to the bones. She wondered where Aurora was... Maybe by the river? Moon trotted to the stream, but Aurora was nowhere in sight. Frustrated, she cantered up to West who was under a tree. "Hey West! How's herd buisness going?"
