Summer was coming to an end and Fall was on them, the summer days grew cooler and the flowers slept longer. The leaves even began to fall from the trees, oh the dreadful winter was upon them, but that just meant another year he loyally served his kingdom. He had so much on his mind, but today he was curious to the whereabouts of his friend Raxa, the last time he saw her she appeared to be limping before she disappeared.

He stepped forward from his position aside the waterfall and took in a deep breath before allowing a whinny to escape his maw, hopeful that Raxa was near and would respond to his call. The two have grown close recently and he did view the mare as a close friend and he worried about her health.
 

He gazed about as the winged birds chirped out loud, whether it was playful or a battle he couldn't tell. But his thoughts were distracted when Raxas voice rang through his ears, his head moved to find her and a gentle smile grew on his lips. Ahh yes, I see you have been hiding from me? he tilted his head sarcastically. I am sure this does not come as a surprise to you, you never did tell me what happened to your leg he questioned as he gazed down to her legs, all of which appeared healed.  

She managed to escape his questioning long enough that her wounds healed, he breathed a sigh but was glad to see no severe pain came of it. Perhaps a story to share? he laughed, cocking his hind right leg as if he was preparing for a long story.  

He gently laughed at the sarcasm Raxa gave, it was so interesting to see the young angry mare turn into a playful friend. It was clear to Jedi that she did not want to share her story of what happend a few weeks ago, but after a few moments of silence she sighed and began to tell him. He smirked and lowered his head to grab a mouthful of grass, lifting his head to continue listening. His eyes bursted open as she talked about a big cat and he almost spat out the grass in his mouth.

you encountered a big cat and didn't tell anyone?! he snorted slightly irritated you could have been really hurt, you should have told someone! he cared for all the members of the Falls but he and Raxa grew close over the past year and he wished she would have allowed him to help her. She was so independent and did not want to let anyone know of her struggles, mainly because she did not want anyone to think she was weak, or whatever reason.

The painted stallions ears flicked back as Raxa glared at him, she was so quick to change her attitude it was really just annoying. She was quick to give a tongue lashing, one in which he stomped his foot with anger and whipped his tail about with irritation. He would not stand for such disrespect, he was just being caring and Raxa was so quick to turn rude.

She spoke again, stating she was fine and it was over, pleading to move on to a new topic. He rolled his eyes and looked off to the left, he gazed at the animals that flew in the sky and ran around on the ground. His ears lifted back up as he calmed down and his muscles relaxed from there irritated state. Of course he flicked his gaze back to her with suspicion, why was the topic so hard for her to talk about? have you recruited any new members? he asked curious to the mare who appeared to always be out and about. He sighed, always the one to keep calm, he never had a short temper like Raxa but perhaps that was why he was good at his position. He was able to keep a political stance at all times.

Raxas body seemed to relax when his did, but of course she remained slightly on edge. As expected the mare just withheld full trust in Jedi, no matter how hard he tried to be a good friend. His eyes narrowed in on her as she spoke, she did not recruit any new members and inquired about his own.

He stood for a moment of silence and gave a shrug no, I can't recall any new members that you haven't already met. his voice was gentle So Raxa, have you thought of having any foals? he asked, the mare was older like him and it was odd that she did not bare a child yet. Was he crossing the line? Did they talk about this already? Surely she would not like the topic, but there was little that Raxa did enjoy.
