i had a way then, losing it all on my own
i had a heart then, but the queen has been overthrown
i'm not sleeping now, the dark is too hard to beat
and i'm not keeping now, the strength i need to push me

She had barely been in her home at the Ridge for a decent amount of time, and here she was, stolen by some asshole stranger. While she didn't express that she was content at the Ridge with Nikola, she'd much rather stay there then become the property of some brute she didn't know. This stranger had also stolen another of her herd mate's. Perhaps he had a thing with Nikola. Why anybody would have a problem with the strange accented stallion was beyond her, but Pierce had made herself at home in the wet territory and hadn't planned on leaving. The stranger hadn't arrived to take her away yet. Then again, Pierce wasn't one to wait around and she set off the moment she was "stolen". The Dunes was where this thief hid at, and so the Dunes is where she would go. She splashed into the ocean, kicking furiously at the water. Her ears stayed pinned tightly to her head as she fought the ocean's current.

It took her a good while to swim around the large islands of Atlantis then finally Salem. Waves brought her onto the shore but she gripped firmly to the sand and pulled herself free of the water. All she saw was sand. Sandy beach, then sandy hills. How boring. This was where she was supposed to be taken? Ha whoever had the nerve to steal her was in for a great surprise. She stood in all her pissed mare glory; nostrils flared and quivering and eyes white-rimmed and piercing.

"Brute!" she screamed her arrival; not afraid in the least to make herself known. Blood pulsed through her and she couldn't wait to feel his flesh in between her teeth. Biting was her thing, and she was determined to make this stallion regret when he even considered stealing her. Perhaps she would even bring back Vesti for Nikola. She owed him now since she had let some brute steal her away. Pierce was the kind to take care of herself and she was furious that this Badr had snuck in and stole her away, right under her own nose.
