Herd meeting{Open all Winged members please come)

[Zar]

The brown stallion slowly trotted up upon the large stone. Gazing down upon the empty valley. He sighed calmly to himself. He scanned for any sign of his herd members. It was time to tell them he thought. His wings twitched nervously.

What would they say? The stallion was so unsure. He lowered his head with ears pivoted against his skull. Ears perked at the slight sound of an equine. He jerked his head in the direction of the sound. His eyes rested upon his ranger Evalyn.

"Up to now good eh?" She said jokingly. She did not bother to wait for a reply from the leader. She stood before the rock scanning around. She shrugged off the fact she seemed to be the only herd member besides Aetos

[Omega]

Fira trotted silently up to Aetos were he stopped and glared as usual. He swung his main to cause a fly that was bugging him off his neck. He then waited for others.

Torinatoi flew down swinging just inches from Aetos before landing next to Fira. Toi flapped her wings up and down before her hooves rested happily on the earth. Then she delicatly folded in her wings and gave a nod of acknowledgement toward Aetos guessing inside her head what he had to bring the whole herd to know about.

[fleur.]

It wasn't often that Eden mingled with the main herd. Her reclusive-ness was partly due to the inadequacy she felt when she was around other horses that had wings, and partly because, well, she was just like that. The white mare didn't mind her own company, and actually enjoyed being on her own. Of course, this could often lead others to think that the mare was stuck-up, but this was not even close to the case.

Noticing the leader of the herd atop a large rock, the white mare perked her ears forward and watched. Was this a signal for a gathering? Exhaling, the beautiful mare made her way slowly to the rock, where other herd members were gathering. Even if it wasn't anything official, it wouldn't hurt for Eden to get to know some of the herd members, seeing as she was going to be living her for the time being.

[Zar]

Aetos scanned over the equines that arrived. He sense that not all of the herd was presence but he felt best to start. "I thank you all for coming.." He said started in a rather formal tone. His wings twitched as he forced himself once more to speak. "I mainly called you here to discuss some problems within the herd.." he started. "First off i have noticed disapreances of the old members. Next is i sense some sort of disturbance within the Fallen.. a Ranger was spotted here. Which is no suprise but there are high tensions there i fear" he said as he took a deep breath.

Evalyn simply stared at the leader. She gave a slight shake of her head as she heard about the rival ranger. She also slipped out a snort.

[Omega]

Toi sighed sadly what she had been guessing was true. She gave a angered grunt then twisted her head slightly watching a mare she hadnt seen before come up toward were the herd gathered. She moved slightly closer to her to get a good look at her. She was curious at who it was.

"Hi, Im Torinatoi who are you?" she asked Eden quietly.

[Calla]

Wilma trotted up to the scene just as he announced the missing members. She gasped slightly. "What do you mean?" She called slightly astonished.

[Zar]

Aetos perked his ears as he heard Wilma speak.
"What i mean simply is that members of the herd have basically vanished. Gone or dead. Members that have been around since i was a foal!" He exclaimed. He tried to force back the irritation. "But that should not be our main focus. It should be the high tensions within the Fallen. It can threaten us. I have heard that a younger stallion has ideas of taking the herd" he said with a serious tone.

[Calla]

Wilma nodded. "Alright... and what are we going to do about the Fallen attack?" she said jokingly with a smirk.

[Omega]

Assassin crept forward in the shadows silently and emerged next to Wilma almost soundlessly. His pupiless white eyes focused on the scene. IF they were to get attacked they would most defiently fail. Their numbers are low anyways and the herd was in no position to attack. Silently he watched his leader, Aetos, curiously.

"Yes Aetos what would the herd do if the Fallen were to attack? What if it is taken over by whatever that 'young stallion' is. What if we are driven out? What then? Will we stay together or fail?" he asked charging questions at Aetos.

[Amy]

Stranger flew silently through the air, he had been patrolling their territory making sure no Fallen member was sneaking around. He had been doing that more often than not, mostly because there are very few warriors. Stranger blinked slowly, hopefully soon the Winged would be ready for an attack, it was easy to sense the Fallen's tension and once he had even heard a few whispering about the Head Warrior Underworld, about how much potential he has to be a leader. It made Stranger fear for his herd. He spotted the herd and flew down, landing close by his precious sister Aureate. Aureate stared at him with her dark grey eyes, they were opposites in each way Stranger was strong, powerful, handsome, and pure white with baby blue eyes while Aureate looked small and fragile and her color was a dark grey matching her eyes. It sadened Stranger because Aureate was fearfully afraid of the dark, though like his wings her's were pure white which helped her through the dark nights alone when he wasn't there with her.

Stranger blinked at the words spoken in the meeting, but he focused his attention on Aetos before speaking "I learned that the stallion is called Underworld, it's the Fallen's head ranger that seems to be the one stirring up the Fallen. It doesn't look good for Crow it seems the Fallen support and trust Underworld much more than they do with Crow." Stranger looked at Aetos with respect and he wondered what The Winged Leader would do if Crow gets overthrown.

[Zar]

Aetos perked his ears as Stranger spoke. "I see.." he muttered to himself. "I have seen him once before i feel like" he muttered to himself. "Then we will face them bravely. You must remember we can fight them" he said as he tried to encourage his herd. He sighed.

[Omega]

Assassin angrily stepped forward. He watched Aetos slowly with his pupiless white eyes then stepped another hoof forward.

"We will not win and you know it! Our numbers are low and well why encourage a failure!" he said slightly close to a yell but he calmed himself slowly. "Why lie to your own herd?"

[Zar]

Aetos closed his eyes as he felt himself running out of breath. He took deep breath but sounded a bit more like a weeze. "Numbers do not matter. As long as we stay loyal to the ancestors they will help us. Even if they don't i will die like my father did to keep peace" he said as he began to weeze like an elderly stallion his ears pinned against his skull. He twitched his wings displaying his anger. He narrowed his eyse at Assasin. He then felt his knees buckle and his legs came out from under him. He slammed down upon the memorial. He called out with a loud neigh.

Evalyn sprang forward upon her leader. She scanned over him. A worried look came across her face as she looked him over. Times like these when we need a fricken healer she thought to herself frustrated.

[Omega]

Assassin quickly galloped up to his leader leaping with his back legs onto the elevated area were his leader lay. His pupiless white eyes scanning over the poor stallion as he seemed to age right infront of him.

"Oh boy.. Age is catching up to him!" he blurted out.

Toi quickly forgot about the mares reply and lifted herself off the ground landing next to her leader. Her green eyes compassionate as she knew her lovely leader, Aetos would not survive.

"Aetos who is to lead without you?" she asked quickly.

[Zar]

Aetos looked up as his members as they crowded around him. "D-don't worry about me" he said. "i-i'll be alright" he said in an attempt at a comfurting tone. He gave a sincere smile as he forced himself to his feet.
