(making the next part now!!!)

Callum:

As the hours passed, he never moved from that spot except just for a drink of water. Maybe even doze for a few minutes. But otherwise, he kept looking toward the opening of the cave in hope of seeing Fawnroot's silhouette coming nearer toward him. But it never came.

He leaned against the wall, aches of pain shooting through his stomach topped with the missing of the mare. He longed for her, and waiting was not a specialty in his character. Callum turned his eyes upward and gazed at the ceiling hard as if it would make the time go faster.

After a long while, he lowered his eyes again to the floor, twirling the creamy white feather in his fingers absentmindedly. He listened for her wingbeats, her warm nicker; he waited to see Fawnroot's kind, soft face looking at him. He closed his eyes, feeling as though he could, her picture being engraved in his mind.

"Please come back, Fawn," he whispered and sank to the floor, his head on the ground. He held the feather before his eyes limply, never feeling more alone.

Fawnroot:

She smiled as she heard Callum’s words being called to her. Her heart fluttered affectionately and she had to swallow the urge to turn around and stay with him, ignoring Hawkflight and her herd completely. She pumped her wings faster-the quicker she can get to her herd, the quicker she can return to Callum.

In less than 30 minutes, she landed softly in the meadow and trotted into her medicine mare den. There, Hawkflight was waiting expectantly. “You took your time.“ He said gruffly, but Fawnroot didn’t reply. She sent him a glare, then turned her full attention to the awaiting pegasi. Hawkflight was right about one thing- her herd was injured and they needed her medicine mare prowess. So, she threw herself into her duties as a healer. She was far too busy helping her broken, bruised, and bleeding herdmates that she didn’t have time to recollect and worry about Callum. At least three long and hard hours later, Fawnroot found herself finally done. There was no one left in the den, other than herself. Eventually, Hawkflight left her to go perform his duties as flight instructor. Now that all was silent and that she was alone, Fawnroot shook out her coat and bit into a leftover oak tree root to soothe her aching wings. Her mind wandered back to Callum and she hoped and prayed that he was doing okay.

Cole:

He shuffled his hooves. “I-never heard of her.”

Avery;

She shook her head. “Never. You‘re the first pegasus that I’ve ever seen.” She promised gently, staring fearfully at the stallion’s massive wings upon his back.

“Who is it? What does Hollowcliff have to do with us?“ She asked curiously, but still eyes the stallion nervously.

Cloudflame:

He believed Avery right away. “NEVER?” He asked, and looked at Cole specifically.

(Brb, gotta take a shower, to take this warm yucky pool water off!!)

(sry, just multitasking too! I saw your comment, sry, I’ll respond)

Cole:

His (big bushy XDDD) eyebrows lowered. ”What does this, Hollowcliff, have to do with us, anyway?” He asked, putting his hands on his hips.

(Recomment) Avery:

She glanced at Cole, then back to Cloudflame. She didn’t answer him right away-out of fear for what he might do. But, the intense and angry look on his face told her that he would be even angrier if she didn’t answer him.

“N-No...We don’t know who that is.” She whispered softly, her legs trembling.

(Sry, I forgot to tell you, but we were swimming in our pool with some of our friends, and our relatives are coming again. So, we won’t be able to do tgh for long, but I can fora little bit)

(Sorry!!! Multitasking! Here now) Avery:

She glanced at Cole, then back to Cloudflame. She didn’t answer him right away-out of fear for what he might do. But, the intense and angry look on his face told her that he would be even angrier if she didn’t answer him.

“N-No...We don’t know who that is.” She whispered softly, her legs trembling.

(Cloudflame:

”you know Hollowcliff?” XDD)

Cloudflame:

He suddenly remembered where he was going to and going to do. He wanted to forget all about Hollowcliff, and he knew exactly how to do it. “You, know Hollowcliff?” He asked, trying to ignore the pain once again.

(Ok!)

(Oh oh oh!! I think I chose one! thanks for the suggestions!)

(Oh yes, good ideas, Ima gonna take one of them, but gtg! Bai!!)

(Yes, still actually thinking why Cloudflame is not letting them pass!! XD)

Avery:

She froze as she watched Cole hammered the pegasus straight in the nose.

Attacking the pegasus was probably not the best course of action-especially since they don’t know what it wants-so she stepped closer to Cole, staring at Cloudflame cautiously. The chestnut Appaloosa centauress wondered if the winged beast was going to retaliate against Cole for the aggressive kick, and she suddenly felt useless and pathetic compared to the 2 massive stallions.

Emily:

She smiled at him. (Gahhh sry sooo short!!)

Fawnroot:

She smiled to him, "You would've made it. You would've found a way without me." She nickered gently, nuzzling his shoulder and back of his head affectionately. "And you would'hv done the same for me."

She said, enjoying the moment with Callum, even if their time together was coming to a close, she knew she would see him again. The sun barely peeked over the Eastern horizon, casting light yellow rays across the distant mountains.

"I love you Callum. Stay safe. Get some rest. I'll come back as soon as I can." She promised, as she embraced him one last time before slowly releasing Callum from her wings and stepping back towards the entrance of the cave.

Callum:

His hand went to his side and he inhaled sharply, holding it. Finally he let out his breath slowly, looking down at the mare with deep gratitude. He let out a long and soft moan, breathing in deeply and letting it out again. Wrapping his arms around her, he buried his face into her mane, stroking her neck affectionately. “Thank you...” he whispered with a squeeze. “I don’t know what I could have done without you.“ (AIIIIII)

The drowsiness of sleep came over him, but he blinked it away, undesirable of falling asleep when Fawnroot was there. He wanted to spend the last few moments with her, he could sleep later.

(Thanks, well, to tell the truth, they aren’t here right now, so we can do a little bit)

Cole:

He was about to speak, when the sound of hoof prints just behind them, could be heard. Cloudflame:

He lowered his ears more, gaining up on them.

(Bai!)

(oh! yes River! gotcha!!)

Kai,

He trotted through the forest.

(River? R u typing and I can't see it or r u gone?)

(here ya go) Avery:

The fact that Cloudflame wasn’t leaving or hasn’t stopped watching them, made her even more nervous. She stepped closer to Cole and walked shoulder to shoulder with him.

“Cole...he’s not leaving.” She whispered, her voice on the verge of panic.

(Earthquake did u see Avery’s comment to Cole?)

(ima make a chaercter real quick to interact with her)

(I haz arrived!)

(Hello? River? Cinder? Bright? anyone on?)

Fawnroot:

"I know....I wish I didn't have to either." She rested her head against his as he embraced her. "I would try to convince them, but I fear that they'll be exactly like Hawkflight-irrational and unjust. ...I guess we'll just have to make do with what we have. We'll just have to live through it together and roll with the kicks this world will throw."

She nickered softly, trying to stop her shaky breath as she also tried to soothe Callum. "But, we'll make it. We'll be okay." She promised to both herself and to him.

Callum:

He hugged her tightly, "Anything for you, Fawn," he whispered, full of dread and many other emotions. He swallowed warm tears, feeling as though this was the last time he was ever going to see her again, even though he knew it wasn't. He leaned backwards, (making dat face... the one I drew!) "When you're doing your work, remember that I'll be here, thinking about you. And that," he drew closer, placing his hand on her cheek, "I love you." He kissed her muzzle, never feeling more affectionate toward anyone. Not even Vailaa.

(Oof, and bai!)

(I also had 30 levels when I died, which sucked)

(YES!!! It's sooo weird and annoying. THE NETHER DOES NOT NEED A FOREST OR BLUE OR PURPLE WOOD PEOPLE)

(XD, also I almost died from a ghast in the nether, I honestly hate the nether update XD)

(I'm sorta here, I died in minecraft, and my spawnpoint for some reason wasn't set, and a enderman killed me, after I came back from the nether)

(River? You there?)

Cloudflame:

He watched them for a little while, then lowered his ears. He kept walking towards them.

Fawnroot:

She smiled at Callum, but then froze, not knowing how Hawkflight would respond. “It’s fine Callum...” she mumbled, not wanting to make it a bigger issue. Hawkflight digested Callum’s words for a moment. Then glanced from Fawnroot’s shoulder to Callum, and his face darkened. Hawkflight stormed up to him and stopped abruptly, their faces mere inches apart. “Hawkflight, don’t.” Fawnroot snorted a warning with her ears pinned, but the stallion gave no proof that he heard her. “And how did that wound get there in the first place? Hm? Cause I certainly didn’t put her in harm‘s way. Tell me, Callum, if that arrow was just slightly to the left by half an inch, it would have pierced her heart. Whose fault would that be? Not mine and not her’s. It would be your fault-you’d have no one to blame but yourself.” He snapped, his voice thick with intensity and malice. Hawkflight whirled away and stepped back several feet.

Fawnroot puffed out her chest and wrapped a wing over Callum’s back. “No, Hawkflight! It wasn’t Callum’s fault, even if it did hit my heart-I wouldn’t blame him!” She turned to Callum, her eyes sorrowful. “Don’t listen to him.”

Fawnroot:

She winced at her re-opened wound, but looked up at Callum and smiled gratefully. "I am. Thank you." And she nuzzled his cheek in return, then glanced at Hawkflight, who was rubbing the side of his head where Callum had punched him. (OOF) Fawnroot sighed and approached Hawkflight, holding a wing in front of Callum to protect him if Hawkflight decided to charge again.

"Hawkflight, I know this is strange and hard for you to believe, but, Callum is my friend, and he's very important to me, so please stop trying to hurt him." She said gently.

Hawkflight shook his head and groaned. "Why, Fawnroot?! What happened to you these past few days? Why are you defending a centaur?" He looked over Fawnroot's wing to stare at Callum, "And you! Why won't you say anything? Why won't you just leave and be done with her? You don't belong with Fawnroot, just as she doesn't belong with you-you know that- so why stay?" He asked, his voice on the verge of anger.

(Yah, ikr?)

Callum:

"Let go of Fawnroot! You're hurting her!" He roared. Charging forward, he punched the pegasus in the face and stepped in front of Fawnroot, rubbing his fist. He turned toward the mare, inspecting her wing and her shoulder wound. It looked slightly torn from the sudden yank from the stallion when he had pulled her by her wing with his teeth. He tore some of his shirt and lay it against her shoulder, stopping the blood that had started to flow again.

"Are you okay, Fawn?" Callum whispered, placing a hand on her cheek, his eyes bright with hurt and concern. (WAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH)

Haflight:

Noticing Callum’s hand on the hilt of his sword, he recoiled backward and pinned his ears. “Fawnroot! Step away from him! Come to me.” He whinnied, eyeing the centaur carefully. But, to the stallions surprise, the mare didn’t step away from him. “Callum wasn’t going to hurt me.“ She started to say, but Hawkflight wasn’t listening. “That beast is going to kill you, so step away from him.” He boomed, and pawed the ground of the cave, his sharp hooves scratching the rock.

She tried to back-track to take the focus off Callum. “Why are you here?” She nickered gently, trying to calm the raging stallion.

“The herd is worried. You’ve never stayed away this long, so I wanted to come find you. And what do I find, but you huddling with a centaur. Don’t you know what they’re capable of? Why in Anok are you defending such a monster?”

But before he allowed Fawnroot the chance the respond, he grabbed the base of her wings in his teeth and pulled her away from Callum. Fawnroot struggled and twisted, “Let go!” But her resistance only caused pain to roll up and down her spine. Fawnroot turned to Callum, her eyes wide, and tried to reach out towards him. “Wait, stop! Callum! Hawkflight, wait!“

Hawkflight:

As soon as he saw the centaur so close to Fawnroot, he pinned his ears and lunged forward. "Get away from her!" He whinnied harshly. He didn't notice Fawnroot's wings wrapped protectively around him-the only thing he saw was a centaur laying close to Fawnroot and he immidtaly figured the beast was trying to hurt her.

Fawnroot noticed this and shook her head. "What?! No, Hawkflight! Wait!! Let me explain-" But, he didn't wait. In the blink of an eye, he grabbed one of the centaur's hind legs in his teeth and ripped him away from Fawnroot. Fawnroot was now on her hooves and yelling at Hawkstride to stop, but the stallion ignored her pleas.

Once he dragged Callum a good 2 winglegnths away, he let go of his leg, but immediately pinned the centaur down using his powerful wings-one pressing against the centaur's bare chest, and the other against his horse side. "Who are you and what were you doing to her?!" He whinnied, his teeth bared and muscles rippling.

XD, me too))

Riverdream: She blushed and looked the other direction so he couldn't see her face

Solardream: She nuzzled his shoulder
