Chapter 4 RP:

Kiger
The black mare woke with a sudden snort, mane flying in disarray. It took her a moment to get her bearings. Then the memory of a messenger from the other night flooded back into her mind. Hira chose her for a mission! It had almost sounded a bit unreal at the time, and it still did, but Kiger supposed that the War Lord would probably know of most, if not all, citizens passing through her capital.

Speaking of missions...wasn't it supposed to be...today?

She leaped out of bed like a panicked deer and had to restrain herself from jumping straight to the bottom of the stairs. Not only would that result in a huge costly mess, she didn't want to risk twisting an ankle or something dumb before she even got out of her house.

Kiger scanned the dimly-lit back room of her shop quickly. Should she bring something with her? A weapon maybe, or provisions? She didn't know how far they'd be going. Hira's messenger had said it would be some presumed-to-be ruins of an old guild hall from way back when Oneans were still living in clans. She dithered with uncertainty. It wasn't like she owned much gear in general, but she decided to bring a waterskin and a burlap sack. Everything else they could scavenge off the mountains, right?

Well, no use wasting any more time hesitating. She navigated through the narrow aisles cautiously until she reached the storefront and checked the lock. Safe and sound, like usual. With that, she cast one last glance around the dim space before exiting and locking the door securely from the other side.

With the sun already high in the sky, she headed down the main road towards where she assumed a traveling party would be likely to wait. Her hunch paid off, as she spotted a decently-sized cluster of horses standing in the distance. She picked up her pace a little, feeling her face burn in embarrassment. This was the first time she'd been late to anything, and it probably didn't make that great of an impression. As she drew level with the rest of the group, she slowed and began to study the others' markings, in case she lost them or they met again.

There was a lanky orange and white stallion with bold, black stripes who seemed a little nervous but had a determined aura about him; a hooded mare with a pup, and dark chestnut stallion who seemed to know her; a haughty-looking stallion, and... She squinted at the familiar pelt-covered back.

"Hey, Killiah!" she blurted out. "Is that you under that bearskin? I thought I recognized you!"


Killiah
It hadn't been too long of a wait before others started to join her, something she was glad for; rather then standing here on the side of the road by herself looking awkward now she had some company. The first to join her was a rather lanky looking horse, she couldn't tell as they got closer what exactly they were and even when rhey stood at her side she still didn't know. Was that a stallion or a stallion esk mare?, either way she decided they were very easy on the eyes and she had to bite her lip to stop anything rude from slipping out and causing a mess before they had even left yet!

A short while after him a snobish looking stallion joined them, only dipping his head to both in turn as a greeting, Killiah gave him a snort in response. She didnt plan on being looked down on the entire trip, if he wasnt going to speak to her then she wasnt going to speak to him!- The large mare was cut off from her thoughts as two other joined them, first came a firey red mare with a hood and so so much hair, greeting everyone quite cheerfully, 'Beautiful day for a journey, isn't it?', in response a dark chestnut perked up, his reply just as kind as the mare's, 'It most certainly is'. Killiah was already poease with most of the party and couldn't help but grin from ear to ear, "More then a fine day it seems! Just take a look around at our little party and you'll see!" She bobbed her head as she spoke not noticing a dark mare come up behind her

The large mare hadn't even noticed their newest party member til her name was called, forcing to spin around to face where it had come from. Her white face lit up at the site of the little mare and she couldn't stop herself from bounding over to nuzzle her, "Kiger my little friend!" She beamed, her smile widening even more, "How funny of you to recognize me from my fur covered behind ha ha!" She wiggled her hips as she guided the mare to the rest of the group, she was glad to have someone she knew around but who knows maybe the others would become good friends of hers too, the firey red mare seemed to be interesting


Yakira
More began joining the group, finally. Yakira felt uncomfortable next to this tall and intimidating mare, discreetly glancing at him whilst biting her lip. Yakira pretended not to notice.
A beautiful buckskin who cared a lot about his appearance, not a single strand of hair was out of place. He seemed quite reserved thought Yakira, only a polite nod to him and the mare next to him.
A puppy and presumably its owner, a stocky pony with a voluminous mane, approached the group of now three.
"Beautiful day for a journey isn't it?" the pony asked. Before Yakira could answer, a heavily scared stallion came from side and responded
"It most certainly is"
The scared stallion inspected the small gathering with a blank expression.
"Hey, Killah!"
Yakira promptly turned his head to see a sleek coal-black mare.
"Is that you under that bearskin? I thought I recognized you!"
The intimidating mare, or Killah, 's face lit up upon seeing the black mare.
"Kiger my little friend!"
Her eyes lit up like Christmas lights and her smile reached her ears.
"How funny of you to recognize me from my fur covered behind ha ha!"
Killah shook her fur covered bum at the black mare, kiger. Yakira couldn't help smiling at the two. The intimidating mare didn't seem all that intimidating anymore!
He introduced himself to Killah and Kiger began to small talk with the two friends
