Alright, since we have so many pages on part one and it takes forever to load (for me, at least) HERE"S PART 2!!!!!
>So, anyway, here's what's been happening in the RP: a plague infected Desert Herd, who have traveled far east to where Dawn Herd lives in search of new lands to keep the healthy pegasai until the plague dies out. The Desert Herd steeds are being kept in a quarantine for a moon, just in case they have any unwanted sicknesses that they need to get rid of. While the new herd was settling into the quarantine, Raincloud caught the sent of wolves. The wolves are timber wolves, and they are in a pack of 14. These wolves are acting strange, as if they're on the run from something, and the leaders are discussing what to do about the wolves.
>Last comment: Dustwing- "Thank you but as much as I respect your offer, I don't think it is a good idea to attack. These wolves were obviously scared away by something. Timber wolves don't just get scared away. And they aren't here to mate. Their mating grounds are north of the trap. If they were this scared we wont be able to drive them back. I think we should sent a scouting mission. Choose five of your strongest steeds and I will choose five of mine and we can go investigate. Raincloud you are welcome to come along."

Well, start RPing!!!
I want to start this one up again.)
Dustwing: His and Ashrays platoon headed towards where the wolves were running from. They cruised or a while when Dustwing smelled something coming from the trap. He strained his eyes and finally saw what scared the wolves. The faintest glow of a fire grew till the front line of the trap was engulfed in flame. FIRE! There was plenty of trap for the fire to die down and there would still be miles and miles of trap. But it spread into the trap AND into the meadow around the trap. "There! They're running from a fire.
Daisyfire-
Daisyfire flicked her ears as she over-heard Mossbrook talking to Sunfire. When she heard the palomino captain dismiss the yearling filly, she trotted over. "How bout I check it out." offered Daisycloud, "Where did you smell the wolves?"
Mossbrook- She wondered what the herd would do about the dire wolves. "I hope the herd is safe..." she thought.
Redfeather- Redfeather resumed wandering around the quarantine, not sure what to do.
(......hi....can i pls have a summary?)
(Im going to be gone all next week. Im leaving tomarrow and wont get back till......................idk. But anyways, ill catch up when im back)
Dustwing: He explained his and Ashray's findings to Lilacroot and Honeyblossom. He looked at Ashray and then to Honeyblossom and saw how they looked at each other. He gave a soft chuckle and waited for the answer.
Ashray:
He nodded, and called over his group of steeds and Dustwing. Ashray spread his wings and leapt into the sky along with his other group members. When Dustwing’s team was ready, Ashray picked up the pace into a pretty speedy flight to get the energy out of his mares.
Soon, they could yet again see the canyon and the pegasi perched atop the plateau. They could even see the dire wolves themselves, deep in the belly of the canyon. Ashray signaled for his group to land and get some rest from the fast flight. He knew they didn’t rest, and that they could’ve gone like that for hours, but he figured it was the polite thing to do.
Then he neighed, calling over both Honeyblossom and Lilacroot. Then Ashray explained his theory on the dire wolves, and Dustwing explained his plan. Then he tucked his wings on his back, and waited for either one to answer. He took note of how Honeyblossom’s wings shimmered beautifully In the sunlight. He quickly looked away, and back to the pegasi held up on the plateau.
( OMG HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAA I DIDN’T EVEN REALIZE! :D )
Dustwing: "Alright but we'll need more steeds to take down a dire wolf. Even if we are tricking it we need back-up. (We've been calling them timber wolves this whole time XD) And I want to get Lilacroot and her assistant out here to examine them. Im sure you have good knowledge but i'd prefer more practiced eyes."
Ashray-
As they flew through the forest as silently as possible, he didn‘t see anything amiss with a regular forest, accept there was a lack of animals, noise, and movement. Perhaps that was just how The Trap normally was. They searched for about an hour more, but found nothing, even though they had searched in the air, on the ground, and in the trees. There was nothing of real threat, but it looked deserted.
Ashray could tell Dustwing was thinking similar thoughts when they had fully rounded back to the place where they had originally entered The Trap. Ashray whistled for his group to stop and flew up to Dustwing who stopped his group also. The two groups landed and took to themselves, eating at two different places.
Ashray and Dustwing landed quite a few winglengths away to speak alone. “Nothing seemed amiss, sir, accept for it seemed to quiet for a normal forest, and seemed deserted. I don’t know if that’s how The Trap normally is, I’m just speaking from my experience with forest, siR,” he finished. Then an idea came to his mind. An insane and very dangerous idea, but an idea that could still work, no matter how crazy it sounded. He turned back to Dustwing.
“Sir, I have a small hunch on what’s going on, but I don’t know for sure. Guaranteed, the wolves looked scarred by something physical, but I would still like to take a look at one to see if it’s a possible disease chasing them from their lands. Just an idea, of course, but it would make sense why they are all going to the same place in the canyon. I’m asking for permission to knock one out, feed it narcotic berries, and examine it. I would not harm it, and then I would set it free,” Ashray suggested.
Pebbleheart: "Im bored" She sighed while rolling in the dirt "We should do something!!"
Daisyfire-
Daisyfire flicked her ears as she over-heard Mossbrook talking to Sunfire. When she heard the palomino captain dismiss the yearling filly, she trotted over. "How bout I check it out." offered Daisycloud, "Where did you smell the wolves?"
Mossbrook- "O-okay," she replied, relaxing a bit.
Sunfire-
Sunfire hearing the mare, he trotted over to her, "Don't worry, a young stallion named Ashray of your herd has already sent out a platoon, and I know that Dustwing of my herd as already sent out a platoon, right now they should already be deciding that to do with the Timber Wolves. Don't worry everything will be fine" Sunray said to the mare.
Mossbrook- She heard Beestripe, and flew back to him quickly saying, "Beestripe, I think I smell wolves but I'm not sure. I'm scared."
Redfeather-She smelled the wolves and galloped full speed back to the herd. "Everyone! I smell wolves!"
Nightriver-
Nightriver was walking around the Dawn Herd lands, anxious about the Timber Wolves that are lurking nearby, she was hoping that Duskriver was staying safe with the other foals.
Beestripe - as Mossbrook turned to leave, he ran after her. "Wait, you could get hurt! We're not supposed to be in the quarantine!" he said, his eye full of concern for the filly.
Sunfire was walking around the desert herd quarantines growing more and more anxious about the wolves with every second that passed.
Rivercloud - while her mate was away, she walked around, making sure the herd was safe and each steed was healthy and accounted for.
Redfeather- Redfeather walked around, looking for something. She wasn't quite sure what, but she kept walking. It was in a dazed sort of way, but she continued walking.
(also im bk)
Mossbrook- She flew to the quarantine and stopped abruptly. "What is that?" she wondered, smelling the wolves
( lol )
( Welp, we’ll pretend that they do, some weird donkey and horse got together, had a baby, and made it a mythical mule! BOOM! NEW LEGEND! xD)
Dustwing- "No everything has been fine here. Have you seen anything on your trek over here. Odd swarms of animals or irregular predator movement? Also I never said you were an ignorant mule. I was just telling you to watch your manners around high power." (they also probably don't know what a mule is XD)
Ashray:
When Dustwing had finished speaking to a more who had suddenly joined their expedition. He then turned to look at the stallion. “I have to be harsh with her to get her to listen. She is with foal, my sibling, and I don’t want either of then to get hurt. And with all due respect, sir, but I am jst simply trying to protect my weak herd, even if it appears that I’m an arrogant mule,” he said softly, and then turned away to observe the landscape.
After a few minutes, he spoke again, “Dustwing, sir, but do recall anything strange happening with vegetation or animals these last few months? Any decreases in population of certain species of plant and animals alike?” Ashray was asking this question because he wondered if they weren’t the only ones who had been affected by the plague, They could have very well brought the plague to the animals, and that could be the reason the wolves were here, but he doubted it.
Dustwing- "And by the way Ashray I heard you perfectly fine. I was talking to your mother not you! She was offering her battle mares to help fight the wolves or the mysterious threat. I said it would be a good idea! You need to get your mind straight!" He said a little more harshly than he meant it. He kind of felt bad for yelling at him. He was a fine young stallion that would some day be a wise over-stallion. He snorted and with a flick of his ear they set off. Dustwing chose 3 strong stallions and 2 smart, and brave, battle mares. He saw that the young stallion also chose battle mares. Dustwing had trained his steeds to look and listen for the slightest movements. It was one of his strategies. Once they were away from Raincloud Dustwing spoke. "Dont be so hard on your mother. You have leader blood but your not yet over-stallion. Your lucky she is so calm and respecting. I have met lead mares that would have lashed out on you or maybe even striked you."
Hazelwood- She searched the sky and finally found Dustwing and Ashray setting off. "Wait! Im coming!" she said. "And why do you think that" Dustwing asked. "I have been scouting this area with Flamefire's patrol. I know this land and what lives here. I also just really want to come." she answered. She knew Duswing may get mad but she knew he was calm. "Fine you can come, but don't be trouble." He replied knowing this mare was not as serious as the others. She was like a little filly trapped inside the body of a skilled fighter. "YES!! I mean thank you" She dipped her head respectfully putting on her most serious face. (sorry that was long
( Recap: Not much has happened except for Desert Herd having been affected by a plague, and they are currently quarantined around 2-3 miles away from the herd. Daisyfire’s report of wolves near the canyon has been confirmed, but they are timber wolves, a pack of around 14, and the pegasi are wondering what had driven them this far Easr/South/Southeast And now, Vixinleap and Lilacroot are going to get a platoon from Dustwing to fight off the wolves, while Ashray, Honeyblossom, Rainclo9ud, and Scorchwing, along with around 40 healthy pegasi, are heading already heading towards the wolves and are estimated to arrive before Dustwing’s platoon of pegasi. Now Ashray and Dustwing are headed into The Trap to try to find whatever it is that is scaring the wolves this way. They are leaving an additional 10 pegasi, just to ensure their safety, but twelve will be traveling in total (Including Dustwing and Ashray this time) Did I help? )
( Don‘t know. You made him after I they all had traveled to the canyon where the timber wolves were, so completely up to you XD )
(@Nightmist, is my OC Stripefire, over there at the Wolves, or at the quarantines?)
Ashray:
“You clearly did not hear me correctly. I did not say attack. I said to find whatever is scaring them, figure out a way to take the thing that is scaring them out of the picture non-violently, and then drive them back to their territory. So I guess we have come to an agreement,” he snorted. When the over-stallion nodded, he whistled for two of his captains, and three battle mares.
Some would doubt bringing battle mares to a possible battle, but Ashray knew these mares well enough to know that they acted like full-grown stallions and would be even greater for a scouting mission. Then he turned to deal with his mother.
“Mother, you have disrespected my wishes by coming here, and I must politely ask you to return to the quarantine,” he said harshly. Then he eyed her belly, and whispered, “I also would prefer to meet my sibling, as well.” Then he looked to his other captains and called them over.
”Make sure Raincloud is returned safely to the quarantine,” he ordered. “Or, if she is too stubborn, then make sure she stays here instead of following us,” he commanded. When they all turned to leave, Ashray called Robinfire back. “Return to the quarantine, regardless if Raincloud returns, and retrieve my father, Scorchwing. Bring him back here and tell him our plan and where we are headed.” Robinfire nodded, and took off into the air, flying in a direct bee-line for the quarantine.
He then looked back to Dustwing who had gathered his five steeds. Ashray spread his wings, and waited for the over-stallion’s signal. His group would follow slightly behind the over-stallions, for Ashray was smart enough not to disrespect an opposing over-stallion, for it could go very badly for his mother, father, and his herd.
(So what happened exactly right after Desert Herd arrived?)
