The thunder of hooves pounding the ground could be heard from miles away.
A white mare, a unicorn, to be exact, soon appeared. Her pelt shimmered in the sun, highlighting her delicate fame and her large white wings folded neatly on her back.
Her horn flashed brightly in the darkening sky, her white coat a beacon, attracting attention to her.
Yet, the mare was not unduly worried. On she cantered, lost in the intoxication of her speed.
Stopping at a small clearing, she stopped and rested, drinking water and grazing, filling her rumbling stomach with food.
Opening her velvet lips, she nickered. A soft, delicate sound, filled with warmth, welcome. Yet, there was a draker edge. Warning that she would not be trifiled with.
She arched her neck, and looked around. Who would come?

Who would come? This king from Inferno Plains would. He was known as all, and feared by them as well. "Vixen." His lyrics called to her, dark eyes focusing on her bodice.
This king was a hell horse, a daemon horse. Fire and lava coated his body, with darkness, evil and hatred deep in his heart. He was king of Inferno Plains, a desert, it was home to two favoured fae, and a colt of his so far, queen was still open but a newcomer had come, her eyes set on being queen.
"What is your name?" He called out, stepping out of the bushes he stood, the king of the hell horses, this was Hades.

I cantered toward the equines, my large shire body gleaming in the sun. I came close to them, hm, thats strange, a unicorn, dont usually see them around. Also, another, a supposed "hell horse". I hated the way they thought they were so tough. I approached the fae, setting my blue emeralds on her, my nostrils flared, i growled "Lo, there, fae, you may come with me if you wish, you may not be harmed if you enter my lands." My blue roan coat quivered, I was a forcer, king of the terra where all the stags were forcebreeders. Before all these hell horses came I was regarded as the most frighteneing of all the equines, but give a horse a unique colour and a flashy name and then they become top dog.
I turned to the stag, narrowing my eyes at him. I ground my teeth, there was nothing I would like more than to sink my teeth into his throught, but it was the wrong place, and the wrong time. I flicked my tail at my scarred pelt, harks pinned as I looked at the stallion, he was nothing, just because he posessed an anger that exelled any other horse made him think he could beat anyone in a battle, but I belived different.

Hades' neck snapped round at the approach of him. His sharp teeth bared, at any moment he could kill him, in a matter of seconds, crushing his teeth into his throat and spine, killing and paralyzing him at the same time.
"Leave us be nuisence." He told him, he wasn't angry, or trying to taunt him, it was just a warning. He would fight for this vixen if needed so.
He knew of him as a forcer, everyone did, as well as they knew he was a hell horse. It didn't depend of what that stag thought of hell horses were true, but what he knew, was fact. That stag only knew lies, which he believed were true.
"No, how about.. we fight for this vixen? Blood will surely fall of it." He said.
He knew no ordinary stag could kill him, especially this stag, he was too dumb to know of the hell horses secrets. The hooves and teeth of a normal horse were dull, and couldn't puncture a hell horses' skin, let alone their bones, nor crush them either. As the hell horses skin was like a whales, and bones of an elephant, and they also could bare the weight of a kilometre concrete slab. With those advantages, their speed, stamina, endurance, strength and brains still wern't in play, but were in battles, the hell horses were tough, and immortal, he wouldn't lose to the colt, not in a million years.

The unicorn tossed her pretty dished head, he mane covering part of her face, making her look more... appealing, though she did not know it. Nodding politely to the hell horse, she spoke, and the sound was soft and decicate.
"You may know me as shimmer. What be your name?"
Her eyes widened as another stallion approached her, also eager to claim her as their own.
She dipped her head to the second stallion that had just arrived. "My name is Shimmer. What is yours?"
Her pale, sparking eyes moved over the two stallions, nostrils flared to catch their scent.
The first, a special horse. Not one of the normal ones. The second, was a large shire horse.
Her eyes widened as they began to quarrel over her, even willing to fight for her! As much as she was flattered, she was also stunned.
"No," her soft voice sang. "I would prefer blood not to be spilled, thank you. I am not that worthy of this."
The shining horse's gaze traveled from one horse to the next, her beautiful orbs glistening.
She smiled a soft smile, with a mischievous edge to it, tail swishing from side to side to rid herself of flies.
"May I have no say in this? But, you are right. I would not know who to choose. Both of you may challenge each other, but..." Her voice trailed off, emerging once again, but with a darker edge. "No blood must be spilled. "
She narrowed her eyes, wondering how the stallions would react when she gave such an order to them.

I stared down at the stag, thinking about how i would go about battling him without spilling blood. I knew he was a special breed of horse, but he was nothing compared to me. I stared at the vixen. "My calling is Surreal, you do so have a say in who you go with, in the end it is up to you, but if we battle, the victor will gain you to our herd."
I shook my mane, licking my teeth, the taste of blood was so.... enticing, that I didnt know if I would be able to stick to the mares rules of no blood being spilled, My icey emeralds stared at the stag, I had killed many a hell horse, I was a survivor of the Light and dark days, with age and maturity to rival his.
I cocked my hoof, as much as this stallion tried, he couldnt intimidate me, he was nothing more than a coward, as were all hell horses. Turning to him, teeth bared, I growled "You will do well to avoid battling me, weakling." I could feel the bloodlust growing in my mouth, urging me to hurt somthing. I shook my head of the thoughts, I could save the growing urge to harm another until the battle.

Shimmer narrowed her eyes in displeasure, but there was no way else but to fight. She snorted, wings flared, starting to back off. She had no intention of being hurt.
Tossing her gleaming head, she arched her neck, ears pricked as she surveyed the two stallions. What was going to happen now?

"Or Vixen, you may choose to come with one of us, instead of a fight, if you wish of that. My name is Hades." He said quietly. Indeed, he wanted to kill Surreal right on the spot right now, but not infront of the vixen, or maybe so, she would do well as a slave...
He didn't care about the other stag now, his attention was completely focused of her.

Shimmer's ears twitched nervously under the intense scrutiny of the hell horse.
She shifted her weight, before answering, her words coming out slowly, hesitently.
"I do not know who to choose. I barely know any of you. First, tell me what you have to offer, before I choose, then."
She tossed her pearly mane, focusing her intense amber eyes on the hell horse, before moving to the shire horse.

"I can offer you a home, a very safe one at that, No stag or mare may harm you, if they do they will be personally punished by me" I looked down at the unicorn, blinking and casting her a small smile. Turning back to the stag, I narrowed my eyes, licking my teeth, I felt that we were enemies now, and one of us would pay for it in the future.
I flicked my tail, taking out many flies with each swipe. I kept my eyes fixed on the Hellhorse, I didnt want him making any funny moves, I had heard he had killed his own child, I would never do such a thing. I stamped my hefty flint, leaving dents in the dusty ground. My Blue emeralds looked down at the mare once again, and filled with warmth. I liked mares who were like her, she was going to be one that I wouldnt be able to harm, even if I wanted to. Maybe we could be friends or such, wait... what was I thinking, she was a mare, stags dont become friends with mares.

"I offer you a home, where you may roam free in it, without the watchful eye of others. I offer you security from bastards. "He looked at Surreal, a evil grin upon his maw, and turned back to the fae.
"I have three vixens already, and a place of queen is up for grabs. And, you are never forced to have a foal, as he may make you." He told her.
Things were starting to heat up here, tension beginning to brew. He had a smug smile on his face, he didn't care if she came or not really, as her fate was already sealed by him.

Shimmer twisted her neck, absentmindedly polishing her horn on her flank while thinking.
Raising my head, she let her amber gaze rest briefly on each stallion, showing no emotion.
She closed her eyes. The hellhorse had played his trump card, and he knew it, judging my the smug smile on his maw. Shimmer had absolutely no intention of being forcebred.
Reopening her eyes, she spoke softly, the words spilling as water would from an upturned leaf.
"Surreal, you have fought bravely. However, I have decided to go with Hades."
She stared at the shire horse, regret barely perceptible from her eyes.
"I do not wish to be forcebred."
Turning her gaze to Hades, her amber eyes warmed a little, as she stepped closer to him.

Hades smiled at them both, nipping her in claimence. He turned and began to lead her back to his land, he kicked out with his hind hoof at Surreal, a hoof mark left upon his rump.

I flared my teardrops, she would not be forcebred, I had told her that, but there was no point in repeating it. I flattened my ears at the hellhorse, throwing myself at him, gnashing my teeth, and flicking my tail, I hit him full on the side, knocking him over. I turned to the mare. "You dont know what mistake you have made by going with him." This wasnt meant as a threat to the mare, she was in great danger from this...... monster..........

Hades stood as the horse had knocked him over, Surreal was big and bony, but he was taller, stronger, faster and wiser than the colt.
Hades turned and knocked Surreal over, Hades had gained a graze as he had been knocked over. He bared his dagger teeth at Surreal, threatening to bite out his throat and take his mares, and kill his foals.
"Let's settle this then, if your so eager for a fight." He growled at him angrily.
