There is a scream that rattles even the core of the black shadows that had been swirling around the Friesian's legs, lapping at her belly with fangs and claws as blood hungry lust cued cries of want and desire. Even these loud cries were silenced, however, as Veteran's scream is sent out towards the sky in a way that was not calm, it was not the Veteran that Skraeling had spoken with upon entering these Dunes and that causes concern to fuel her legs as they are quick to pick up a ground eating gallop. Each stride pushing through the sand, muscles straining against the sinking sands that just eat each step. It does not take long for the sun to raise a thick sheen of sweat that just seems to cover the mare's entire body as she powers through the heated dunes, breathing roughly by the time she is able to find the painted stallion who seems relatively frantic towards a mare that does not look familiar to the black mare. The wind works in her favor as it shifts towards her direction, his words clear against the wind which brings more concern towards the black. She has seen the depths of insanity. She'll be damned if she loses another to their depths. Skraeling had saved her sister from the damned shadows that Skraeling is forever stuck with, she'll help restore what she can of his sanity or she will die trying. It would seem, however, that this gray mare is not helping that situation and that means a threat has wandered into their little piece of hell, and that means she is now left to deal with Skraeling until Veteran tugs back on the leash to quiet her, and even that isn't guaranteed to work. This means her journey towards the pair is not complete as she continues to power through the sand, listening as sentence fragments from the mare glide past her eyes through the horrid summer wind before something makes her stop dead in her track. "Open your eyes, Vetty." That isn't bound to help his sanity, not in the slightest and Skraeling lunges forward, taking only eight quick strides towards the mare as she abruptly slams herself between stallion and mare, practically body slamming the mare's shoulder with her chest should the mare not be paying attention. She had caught the name but that is of little importance. First off, Vetty? Evanescence would have died laughing, and not in the "it's cute" way but the "you are seriously not the brightest star in the sky" way. Skraeling, on the other hand, will mentally choke on her thoughts at the disgusting froo-froo way of saying Veteran's name. It's as if she knows him but that can't be possible. She's looks to be roughly the same age as Skraeling and Skraeling has known Veteran Soldier her entire damn life, granted there was a huge gap where they hadn't seen each other so that is very much possible. However, Veteran had already had troubles with his sanity while she was a foal so that means this bitch (Skraeling may not have been brought up in the kindest and most polite way) can only mean trouble. "Whether you are truly from his past or not, you should damn well know better than to get so close to someone that has no recollection of who you are." Her words are dripping with a venom that will be all too familiar to the ears of Veteran as she keeps a stance in front of him, and part of her almost dares him to stop her. She did warn him about letting her stay in the Dunes, seems that is coming into effect a lot sooner than anyone probably had intended. "Glow - because a lady doesn't try to shock someone into panic while getting in their personal and intimate space - what the hell do you want? And you can damn well say it from there." She's dominant, she is protective and she has her ears pinned against her skull, teeth ready to attack while a hind hoof cocks up, prepared to cow kick at this mare if she even takes a single step towards her. Skraeling is a mix of pure schizophrenic insanity, and no one could ever tell her just who the hell her father was, some claim it to be Sleepy Hollow, while others claim it was a dark friesian that had been powerful but broken by his own psychotic need for bringing pain upon others. Evanescence never spoke of her father and besides, Sweeney Todd has raised her just as well so it may have been him with his own voices. No, she stands tall just like her two parents - Evanescence and Sweeney Todd - and she dares Lady Glow to take a step against her, and she dares Veteran to pull her back. She smells blood in the water and she doesn't like it.  |
You'll have to forgive her. She's very protective of the last connection she has to an old form of sanity ^^; that and she's not too people-friendly in general.
