VOICE OF THE PEOPLE.

Sweat lined a body that was beginning to grow farther into itself. Light colored fur stood up on end in places, a lather growing thick between her hind legs and behind her ears where her mane rubbed. Her bright blue eyes were fierce with an odd emotion as the mare stormed through the jungle of Paradise. Her feathered legs flicked stones, dirt, and grass, but she paid no mind to the churning ground under her hooves as she chased a certain lightly colored stallion from her home. Her uncle had pissed her off officially and it was well within her right to usurp him from his position and send him running.


Pinning her ears tight to her neck, Snapdragon let out a deep breath and reached forward with bared blunt teeth to snap at his haunches, her teeth managing to make their mark as she pushed harder and harder forward until she was almost on top of him in their run to the ocean. It did not take too long though for the dup to go crashing into the waves of the ocean and the greying red roan to vanish from her sight, his crimson blood slowly leaving a trail in the ocean as she gave a snort and stomped a front hoof. He had caused trouble when she had tried to fix things and now he was as good as dead in her mind.


Shaking her head, Snapdragon was about to go back to patrolling her home when a scream echoed over Paradise and drew her gaze from the ocean's white capped waves. Her pale ears perked forward, but she did not reply to the call with her words. Instead, her only reply was her hooves turning in that direction and slowly moving into a long strided trot that would take her through her territory at a decent pace and as she used well made trails, she found her traveling to be easy with her muscles pumping with well needed work.


Weaving in and out of vines and branches, Snapdragon's loud movement slowed and turned more quiet as she came around a bend in a trail and set her blue gaze upon a set of three. Her brows faintly drew together as her hooves stopped all forward movement, but she did try to keep a peaceful air to her even though it was heavily laden with her head raising and her neck bending with her body seeming to hold a more regal stance. She had just run out her uncle and now she had a group of three and it set her on edge. Were they coming for her home? Did they want her territory and to make it something like Siren once did?


Pushing those thoughts away, Snapdragon took in a deep breath and finally opened her lips. “You have come into my home and called for me. What can I assist you with?” Snapdragon did not say her name for at the moment, she did not wish to fully let out who she was, but when the silence bothered her a bit she finally relented that part of herself. “My name is Snapdragon and I am the Crown of Paradise.”
