(I'ma making a new part so don't comment)

Callum:

"No, no, it's fine," he said with a warm smile down at Fawnroot. "It's for her, not for me."

Zayne:

"Uhhh, well, they'd probably put you in jail. But I don't think that'll happen," he added firmly, crossing his arms. "I know they shouldn't do it because it wasn't your fault."

Raven:

"W-what happens if they decide I a-am guilty?" she said quietly

Kelly:

She laughed and took another bite. "Uh HUH." She smirked.

Kelly:

She blushed. "It looks to good to touch," she said, and carefully used her fork to slice a bit sized piece. She ate it and her face lit up. "Mmm! It's really good!" She leaned back, "Thanks, Ben!" she called out.

Kelly:

"Yes, delish," she said with a wink. "I'm fine."

Fawnroot:

She looked up at Callum with a concerned look. "Are you sure? I don't want to ask you to do something if you don't feel comfortable. I could just describe you to her, if you'd rather." She said gently with a glance to Kilroy.

Raven:

"Y-yeah," she said, nervously pacing.

(Bye)

Raven:

She looked around, wondering what was going to happen

(I gtg again!)

Raven:

"Thank you, sir."

Zayne:

He took her hand gently in his, reassuring her that everything was going to be alright.

The old stallion stopped at a doorway. "I am Yonire, one of the head council centaurs," he said with a kind smile. "I will help you with your case as much as I can."

Raven:

She took deep breaths, trying to stay calm even as fear tried to overwhlem her

Zayne:

He laughed and broke into a canter, flicking his creamy white tail.

Callum:

"Store up on fuel and then head back to the herd," he said with a shrug. "That's what seems like the plan to me."

Kelly:

She smiled softly at him and looked down, blushing.

Merrick:

He smiled and pulled his hand back, but didn't look away from her. "Thanks for understanding. We can go whenever you're ready." He said as he ate the last couple pieces of popcorn before looking back to Kelly.

Fawnroot:

As they ate, she ruffled her feathers and looked at the 2 stallions. "So, what's the plan now? Just wait for Coalwing to come back and try again for an alliance?" She asked as she swallowed a mouthful of the green grass.

(Hey Ashsong?! I've been thinking about this for a while-what if Fawnroot has a friend that's completely blind and even though she can't see, she's always wanted to meet a centaur. What if Fawn introduced Callum to her as a sign of peace because Fawn knows Callum wouldn't hurt her! I think it would add something! Kilroy could meet her too! I just figured it would be another way to get the herd to trust the centaurs)

Raven:

She trotted, staying just a little bit ahead of Zayne.

Raven:

She smiled, "Race you there!" she said with a grin

Zayne:

He put a comforting arm around her shoulders. "Let's go," he said softly.

Callum: (I forgot, but i think he dislikes apples...?)

He picked up the sugarcane and flowers, eating them together with the sugarcane providing flavor. He noticed Fawnroot watching him and he smiled, still munching.

Raven:

She smiled slightly, the defensive look in her eyes that had been there for years was fading

Fawnroot:

A sharp twinge of pity and guilt flashed over her as she listened to the centaurs conversation. She nosed the few apples she found from a nearby tree into a pile for the men. She also found few edible flowers, berries, and sugarcane which she added to the pile as well.

Fawnroot allowed the centaurs to eat the fruits and other treats she's found on their own and have the pile to themselves-she opted for good old grass. She lowered her head and started grazing on the familiar flavorful grass of her homeland, keeping one eye trained on Callum.

Raven:

She couldn't stop crying, she felt like her cold, calm exterior was melting and who she really was was coming to the surface

Raven:

She turned around and hugged Zayne

Raven:

She still felt horrible about dragging him into her family issues. "I'm sorry. I really am," she said again, wiping away tears

Zayne:

His expression was still forlorn, but after what Ben had said, he had relief mixed in as well.

Raven:

She made sure that her bag was still closed.

Raven:

"I don't think so, thank you anyways."

Ben:

He smiled grimly and nodded. “Sure, lass. Anytime. I’m sorry to hear yer father’s been treating you that way. It‘s not right.”

He said before standing up taller. “Anything I can get ye?”

Kelly:

Besides the awkward moment, she blushed as he tucked a strand of her hair behind her ear. "It's okay, I understand. I will only meet your parents if you want me too." She exhaled softly and stared into his amber eyes.

Raven:

"W-we need your advice." she explained the whole story, her part in killing the centaurs, her family's part in the whole tale. "And now we don't know what to do. I deserve punishment for killing those centaurs. I didnt kill them because I wanted to, I killed them because I had to."

(GTG)

Raven:

"I just hurt everyone I'm around," she said

Raven:

She wasn't sure what to do. If she saw Ben she'd ask him what they should do

Merrick:

He extended a hand and gently cupped her cheek in his palm. "Kelly, no. No, you misunderstand! I don't mind. I'm not mad or annoyed at you. You asked a valid question. I'm sorry for being so pessimistic. If you want to meet my mother, I'll take you to her, but it won't be a pleasurable experience."

His cheeks flushed and his eyes saddened. "I'm embarrassed of her and I just...I don't want you to meet her. You could meet my father, however, if you'd like." He tucked an errand strand of blonde hair behind her ear.

Kelly:

She blinked rapidly for a second, as if she wasn't hearing right. After a moment she bit her lip, feeling stupid for even asking the question.

"O-oh... I... " She looked at him and saddened. "I'm sorry. I didn't think... I... sorry. I was being dumb."

She sighed quietly. Kelly, what the heck!? Why are you so stupid!?

(I'll be back in 26 minutes)

Raven:

She didn't know what to say. "Should we talk to Ben and see what he thinks?"

Raven:

"I'm sorry." she whispered

Raven:

She hugged Zayne. "If the worst comes to the worst, I die. I regret killing those centaurs, I've regreted killing them since it happened."

Raven:

She looked at Zayne, "I don't know of a way to get out of this, I-I'm not scared of the punishment I deserve."

Raven:

She hugged him back. "I deserve death, that's the punishment for killing." she whispered back

Zayne:

He hugged her. "Ssh, Raven. Don't apologize, everything's going to be okay," he whispered.

Raven:

Her shoulders shook with silent sobs

Zayne:

He sat there in silence for a moment, thoughts swirling in his mind. Finally he spoke, "You were forced to kill the centaurs against your will," he added quietly. "By your brother and dad. So really it would be on them, especially on how they've treated you."

Raven:

She nodded slightly, "Y-you'll need to report me too. I've killed people, just like my father and brother." she said quietly

Raven:

She shook her head. "I normally only eat a potato or two and sometimes a roll."

Raven:

She took a bite of the cupcake, getting a little bit of frosting on her nose. "Wow. You're right, these are amazing!"

Zayne:

"Hey, it's okay, they're really, really good!" He reassured her, gently touching her forearm.

Raven:

She nervously took one of the cupcakes
