Her body ached with every step, but still, the grullo mare lumbered forward. She didn't dare to show weakness as she heard the cry go up for Rougaru. It was another stallion, but it wasn't in challenge. Curiosity drove her forward. She hadn't ventured out to the Crossing in too long and she felt so out of touch with the other islands. If this was a lead stallion from another herd, it would do well to know him. Rougaru always came back smelling of other stallions from his battles and though she would often overhear the squeals and collisions of bodies, she never ventured close enough to see anything. But this time, she wouldn't hold back. She had another son to protect and like Loupgaru, Alpha would need to grow up knowing how to run his own herd if that was something he wanted to do some day.

For his own part, the colt was already living up to his name. He was bossy and boisterous, often snapping at her sides and flanks as if trying to herd his own mother and if other foals came near, he would pin his ears possessively and try to drive them off. Monster didn't quite know what to do with the colt's personality. He also didn't speak much. Most of his verbal communication was in squeals and the occasional loving nicker (usually when he wanted milk). Even as she slowly moved forward, the colt pranced at her heels, occasionally snaking his neck and gnashing his teeth to try to hurry her along to wherever it was they were going. His red dun coat stood out in the herd, but Rougaru didn't seem too discouraged. At least Alpha's vivid green eyes told who his father was.

Of course, that was before the painted mare saw the tall lanky stallion ahead and his own green eyes turned in her direction. She gave a soft snort, letting her blue and brown gaze sweep over his athletic form. He had marks on his coat to prove he was a fighter, but how could he get in bites around those legs? He seemed to tower above her, but she wasn't intimidated in the slightest. Her head lifted as her gaze met his evenly. She nudged Alpha more behind her protectively, even amongst the colt's nipping teeth of protest. Shaking her head, she stopped a few feet away. "I am Monster. Rougaru should be along shortly. Something we can help you with?"
