(Also, Firesplash [cute name by the way] is pretty close to Twigstrike, witch could end up pretty funny:

(Wispi, I have to admit I laughed when I red your comment about the secret 'rebellion', because this is literally the definition of rebellion: an act of violent or open resistance to an established government or ruler.)

(So, would Firesplash kinda look like this:

I tried to make him as close as I could but it's REALLY hard to do a bay roan pinto on DDFH)

Robincloud:

The mare blinked. "Then we can do something after the delivery, if you'd prefer, Starsummer," she suggested. "But at least until it's a weanling," she said calmly and cooly. She glanced at Moonstream with pestering eyes, but looked away quickly.

Redmoon:

Redmoon and her sister both huddled under a tree with Emberblaze, Magicpetal, and Goldenstream.

(Nvm, and OOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHH THAT"S SUPER COOOOOOOL!!!!!!!)

(Oh, and here‘s the secret:

Brightwing and Moonstream are both part of a rebellion nobody knows about unless the rebellion wants you to know. The members are some of the smartest, quickest, most talented pegasi in all of Anok, but their group is still rather small. That’s where Brightwing always disappears to.)

Starsummer:

She stamped her hoof at Jaggedwing's previous statement. "Are you saying that we attack Emeraldheart? Because if you are, I under no circumstance will be apart of that. We are not going to attack a pregnant mare, especially one who's so close to delivery." she snapped. She momentarily saw Brightwing glance at Moonstream, but she didn't think to much of it, but when he commented about Moonstream, Starsummer furrowed her eyes, but didn't say anything, nor think to much of it.

(YYYAAAAASSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!! HE LOOKS SOOOOOO CUUTTEE!!!!!!!!!! I'll announce it after the council meeting or something)

Hollywing:

He thought for a moment. "There are many effect ways to deal with this kind of situation in Desrt Herd, which one I find very terrible is going without water for at least a moon.... Somehow they all managed to survive," he said, serious now.

(Back, but not for very long)

Jaggedwing-

"We cloud remove all their wings." suggested Jaggedwing.

Briarcloud shot her mate an annoyed look, "Let's not do that."

Breezecloud looked less aghast and more disgusted. "No. We're not removing any wings, spy or not. But if we think Moonstream would respond to the pain of ones she cares about, what do you have in mind?"

Breezecloud looked aghast. "How on earth would you remove a pegasus's wings, Jaggedwing?"

It wasn't until Ashbrook touched down in the jungle that she realized the significance of what she had just done. It was quite possible that she had just initiated a war with Flame herd. She consoled herself by telling herself that Snakewing wanted that.

She cantered up to the lead couple, who were nickering over something while standing under the trees that held their nests. She nodded respectfully and when Snakewing nodded for her to give her report she did so. "I do not know whether I succeeded in killing Cherrycloud or not. I know that one of my hooves hit her shoulder and one hit the main wingbone, so if she remains alive it is extremely unlikely that she'll ever fly again. I'm almost certain that we have just sparked war against Flame Herd."

Snakewing nodded. "Good," he said. "We've delayed their war against Glacier Herd, and Desert Herd steeds know nothing about the jungle. I'm confident we can win. Thank you, Ashbrook."

Ashbrook nodded respectfully and flew over to her hoofholds to prepare.

(gtg to bed)

Bronzewing glanced up at the sky as it started raining. "Better decide quickly," he said.

Robincloud:

She lifted her head indignantly. "Moonstream, you know very well there are many options that we can look into," the mare smiled viciously. Hollywing nodded. Red Herd had many affective punishments that was rarely every used.

Redmoon:

She careened to the right and shook her coat and baring her teeth just in time to see Emberblaze fall into the water. Everything was silent for a moment before she broke into a barrel of laughs. "AHAHAHAHAHAHAAA!!!!" she hooted, falling onto her back. Breezebell squealed in joy and dived into the water, also soaking everyone in cold water. The next moment, it began to rain, and all of them started to find cover.

Moonstream became bored as the Council steeds murmured among themselves, deciding her punishment. “Please decide what you’re going to do with me. There can’t be that many options.”

Magicpetal:

She wheezed and coughed she was laughing so hard. "HHHHAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!" -cough- "Ok..." -wheeze- "I....." -wheeeeze- "....I think I'm good now...."-cough cough wheeeeeeeezzzzzze-

Goldenstream:

At her sister's laughter she remembered the whole reason she chased Magicpetal over here. She galloped forward and tackled her sister, sending them both splashing into the lake.

Emberblaze:

Is dead. "HHHHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!" X-X XDDDDDD"

Magicpetal: She opened her eyes underwater and saw her sister's face, smirking at her. Magicpetal shoved Goldenstream and Goldenstream chuckled, letting her air out. She pattled to the surface and broke out of the water, still laughing.

Magicpetal:

She patted to the surface as well, but instead of letting her whole head out of water, she let her nostrils and mouth peek out from the water, not revealing her whole figure. She slowly went over to Emberblaze, who had his back turned to her and he was laughing as well. She waded onto shore, grabbed his tail in her teeth and jerked with all her might and strength. Before he knew what was happening, she yanked him into the water.

Emberblaze:

"AAAAAAAH-" as he felt himself getting plunged into the water

(I figured that if Ashbrook knew what Cherrycloud looked like, the two may have met before)

Cherrycloud-

Cherrycloud flicked her ears at Honeyfall, "Oh, she's no one." said the lead mare, "I'll join you in the sky in a moment."

The bay silver dapple mare gave her captains orders not to do anything to their captive, then took off. Moments later, Cherrycloud was gliding beside Ashbrook. "So what did you want to talk about?"

Horizongold chuckled and flapped out of the water to go along with Breezebell's words. He landed next to Redmoon, who had stopped and was eyeing him warily, and promptly shook himself off, flinging water all over her.

Horizongold laughed at their outbursts and came up with an idea. He waited until Magicpetal began looping back around the field, back towards him and the others watching. He then took off and nosedived into the pond, creating a gigantic splash. He couldn't keep a straight face at Breezebell and Emberblaze, whom he'd almost drenched. He stayed in the water until Magicpetal passed him, then drew back his wing and sent a huge wave over Goldenstream. She emerged, sputtering, and he burst out laughing at the fact that she now had a lily pad frond draped over her head like a forelock.

Redmoon:

She cocked her head. "Hmm...... Watching sisters fight... How... interesting," she said curiously. Breezebell smiled. "Sounds fun!" she said in complete contrast to Redmoon's words.

Emberblaze:

He skidded to a halt once he heard Breezebell and Redmoon's voice. "Oooh. You missed it! Magicpetal is super muddy, so she scooped some mud off herself and chucked it at Goldenstream! It was hilarious! Now, they're chasing each other and I do not want to miss this sister fight!" he said, over his shoulder, headed towards the lake

Magicpetal:

She giggled in spite of herself. "Yeah!" she scooped mud off her chest and wings flung it at her sister. The mud ball splattered on Goldenstream's face, neck and chest.

Goldenstream:

She tried to dodge the attack, but it was to late. "AH!!!" she screamed, as the mud ball splattered onto her face. She opened her eyes and said "Ooooh, it's on now. You gone messed with the wrong sister." she said, glaring at Magicpetal. She wiped some of the mud away from her eyes and galloped towards her.

Magicpetal:

"BOO-YAH!! Nailed it!" she said, dancing around, but then shrieked and ran towards the lake as Goldenstream charged after her.

Emberblaze: He nickered with pleasure and called after the two. "GET HER GOLDENSTREAM!!! GET HERRRR!!!!!" and he canters into the woods after them.

(In case you didn't see it, this is what Flamefrost said, Dragon,

Ashbrook eventually made it to Flame Herd's territory, less than two hours before sunset. At least, she assumed that because of her home in the western jungle, but realized that the sun would set earlier further east. She dispelled that thought and coasted through the desert air, searching for the main mass of Flame Herd. She landed among a small group that were huddled close to a bay mare with dark blue wings. Ashbrook noted that this was an unusual coat and wing color among desert steeds, but she didn't worry about it. She turned her attention to a familiar mare. "Cherrycloud?")

Silverflame:

After his group broke up, he had gone to checked in with Pearlsong and Shadowstar, and had lost track of Goldenstream. He now was scanning the crowd of yearlings for her, but didn't see the chestnut filly. Finally, he spotted Horizongold trotting over to a stream, and a second later he saw Goldenstream, Emberblaze, and a lump of mud standing in the stream bed. Silverflame quickly followed Horizongold, and arrived at his the group of friends, just as the silver dapple stallion asked Magicpetal, "That was you?"

"That is quite a bit of mud you got there." nickered Silverflame.

Magicpetal:

She grinned back, her teeth and eyes the only bright part on her body. "Yep! That was me." she said, blushing, glad that the mud would hide her roses cheeks.

Horizongold was looking around for Magicpetal. After a few minutes of searching, he saw the mud-covered pegasus from the training standing with two other pegasi that Horizongold realized were Goldenstream and Emberblaze. When the muddy steed rubbed off some mud from their wing, Horizongold saw aqua and realized the muddy steed was Magicpetal. "Figures," he muttered to himself. "What she doesn't have in size, she makes up for in ingenuity and brainpower."

He trotted after the trio, which had started moving. He realized they were headed to the pond, presumably to wash off the mud. He grinned at Magicpetal as they broke through the trees near the apple orchard. "That was you?"

Magicpetal: She stretched her neck to see over the wings and backs of the steeds who were breaking away from their training groups. She looked for the familiar colors of her brother and sister and soon saw them walking side by side, heads low, looking just as tired as the others.

She waved her brown, muddy wing at them.

Goldenstream: She looked up and saw a small mud-ball waving her and Emberblaze over. She shrugged and the two walked towards it. As they got closer they began to see the distinguishing features of their little sister, but they couldn't't be sure, since it was covered with mud.

Emberblaze: He held back a nicker. "Magicpetal? Is that you?" he asked, dipping his head to the figure

Magicpetal: She smiled and nodded. "Yeah...it's me." she said, wiping some of the mud off her wing to show her bright aqua coloration.

Goldenstream: "Woah! What happened?" she asked, wiping some mud off Magicpetal's face, like a mother would wipe a chocolate stain off her child's cheek.

Magicpetal: "Uh...we played Horizongold's version of hide and seek....I must've got a little carried away with the hiding part...hehe..." she said, starting to walk towards the river.

Goldenstream and Emberblaze: They both burst out laughing and followed behind their mud-covered sister to the lake.

Ashbrook eventually made it to Flame Herd's territory, less than two hours before sunset. At least, she assumed that because of her home in the western jungle, but realized that the sun would set earlier further east. She dispelled that thought and coasted through the desert air, searching for the main mass of Flame Herd. She landed among a small group that were huddled close to a bay mare with dark blue wings. Ashbrook noted that this was an unusual coat and wing color among desert steeds, but she didn't worry about it. She turned her attention to a familiar mare. "Cherrycloud?"

Moonstream forced herself not to smile. This was going better for her then the council mare knew.

(gtg :(

Briarcloud-

"You may think your being a good spy right now, " whispered Briarcloud, "But every move you make is giving more and more away."

Moonstream snorted, but had no other reaction to Briarcloud’s words.

Magicpetal:

Her tactic had worked. She got a stick on her first try and she was about to try it again, but Horizongold called them over. Her coat still had mud caked to her and no matter how hard she shook, it wouldn't come off. "I'll just rinse it off in the river." she mumbled to herself and trotted over to him. Once he was finished with his comment, she went over toward the middle of the clearing and looked for his sister and brother. Although, she looked like a totally different pegasus, they could easily tell it's her from her small size. She was still one of the smallest yearlings in the clearing, so it wouldn't be difficult for them to recognize her for her size.

(Uhh...ok..I think I caught up now... hehe)

(Can you post the link for the correct part? I absolutely can’t find it, and it would be a big help if you could.)

Mistcloud:

Mistcloud was slightly concerned when Bronzewing had used her son as means to get what he wanted, but she didn't want to interfere

Moonstream’s face was completely emotionless as she said, “Shadowstar is the son of Moonsing and Mistcloud, is he not? I care about his status as the foal of two important leaders. Where does this question come from?”

Shadowfire had steeled his face as well, but inwardly he was whispering to himself, "Tough nut to crack." Then he asked it again. "I asked you a question. How do you feel about Shadowstar?" He was trying to crank up the embarrassment so that she would feel obliged to talk, but it didn't seem to be working.

(Hmph. No useful answers yet, huh? If they are going to be revealed, when will that be?))

Shadowfire spoke up on an unexpected note. He knew how infuriatingly uninformative captured spies could be, so he wanted to catch Moonstream off guard. "How do you feel about Shadowstar?" he demanded.

(OOH I have a guess!! But I almost don't want to know if it's right because it would spoil the surprise.)

(No, he’s not siding with Cherrycloud. You’ll see...

Oh, and I think I’ll be sticking with this role after all. It was SOOOO hard deciding which one was the most interesting. They’re all so amazing.)

( XD. That's understandable. )

(Uhh, do you mean Brightwing?)

Breezecloud saw the significant look pass between Moonstream and Brightwing. She wanted to speak up to ask about it, but restrained herself. Instead she resolved to ask Brightwing about it later, in private. "Well," she said instead. "Even though we might not get answers, should we start the questioning?" She looked at Briarcloud as she said this.

( What?! Why would Moonwing side with Cherrycloud? )

(Is Moonwing siding with Cherrycloud?)

(I think I’ll stick with this role)

Moonstream ignored the pleas for her to talk, even after the threat of being forced. She shut her mouth tighter when Briarcloud began speaking. She knew about Briarcloud. This former lead mare was the master of getting spies to talk. Moonstream prayed that she would be able to keep her information and mission specifics a secret. She glanced briefly at Brightwing again, and looked away in an airy I Don’t Really Care About You Pegasi way.

Brightwing met the filly’s eyes, and blinked an intricate pattern before she looked away casually. He hated keeping secrets, but when he did, it didn’t even seem like he had one unless he told you. He murmured to Starsummer. “She’s just a foal. Even if she is supposedly a spy for the enemy, she hasn’t actually agreed that she is from Flame Herd. Perhaps that’s what she wants us to assume.” Brightwing needed this filly to be freed as soon as possible. It was very, very important.

(Yes, Brightwing and Moonstream share a very, very big super classified secret.)

Horizongold nodded respectfully to the trainees as they came up to meet him. "Well done for the first time doing this. I'm glad you all caught on so quickly. Tomorrow is another off day of training, but the day after we will be doing this again. I recommend practicing your techniques, because when this happens in real life there will be no second chances. If you're caught, you're caught; and that's it. So the next time we do this, I don't want any of you to be caught twice. If you're caught once, that's okay, just try again. I'll let it slide this early in the training. But if you're caught on the first try, don't make haste in trying a second time. Slowly works better. Now, you're dismissed."

(gtg to bed)
