Morbid Temptation

He was in agony, but the blood red stallion would not go down. Not without a fight. His muscles clenched and unclenched as he made his way to the top of the canyon, his breathing slightly labored and his eyes dark. Blood was dripping from various cut wounds from a whip, and there was a halter that was much to small for his face that was growing into his flesh. It was a graphic sight, and he merely looked like death warmed over. the stallion still however, would not give in. He would not give up, and he would certainly keep on going. He still had fight in him, and with that fight came a lot of pissed off horse.

Athena

Athena stood by the edge of the canyon, grazing on the small grasses that grew bettween the rocks. Then she heard scraping of hooves on rock and looked over the side stil munching on the grass in her mouth. Then she saw him. He was cut up and bleding and and he had a halter on. She swallowed fast and called down to him, "Hey do you need some help?" Her voice echoed in the canyon as she awaited an answer.

Leo

Leo came looking for anything wild he could catch.At least he might be able to catch something.He had a tranqualizer and a couple ropes with him.He was riding along on Wisher.Looking around he spotted the stallion, but not the mare.Clicking his tone he made Wisher go faster toward the stallion to see the horse's reaction.It might be a easy catch if he was tamed.He brought Chita with him.

Chita

The male cheetah padded along beside the horse. Then saw the other horse. He watchd it carefully unsure what he should do

Athena

Athena saw them coming and panicked a bit. "Hurry up!" She called to the sruggling stallion. "There's a Human!" She whispered harshly flicking her tail in annoyance.

Morbid Temptation

Morbid glared at the mare, then his eyes fell upon the human and his horse. With the strength of an andalusian and the will of an arabian, the stallion lunged forth until he stood atop the canyon, closer to Athena. Go. He hissed to her. Then he glared at Wisher, and let loose a scream of challenge. He may be in pain, but he was not about to lose his freedom. Not again.

Athena

Athena stood beside him. She was not about to let him get captured. She understood his frustration and anxiety, so she was not mad at his reaction or tone. Then she spotted his tranqualizer gun. "He's got a gun!" She warned him. Before the man could spot her she backed away a few steps out of his sight. As she left she gave a worried glance at Morbid. She would step in if things got bad.

Leo

Leo attepted to make Wisher go closer to the canyon top, but not that close to the horses.He shot his gun at the stallion hoping to make the horse dizzy.If the mare try anything he shoot one at her too.He got ready to have Wisher move off in neither worked.He glanced at Chita to see what the cheetah was doing.He wasn't worried about Chita being able to escape.Chita could run for safety.

Wisher heard the scream.Having been abused by males the mare didn't trust them.She screamed a challenge right on back ears pinned.

Chita

He growled at the horses.

Athena

Athena heard the gunshot and winced. She looked at Morbid to see if he was okay.

Temptation

Morbid had tried to jump backwards, but in doing so the tranquilizer shut him straight in the shoulder as he had turned. Beyond infuriated, the stallion reared and gave a scream of challenge. He went to charge forth, but only made it a few yards before the world began to swim and his eyesight began to fade. Not again. he hissed in his mind. this had to end, him getting captured and recaptured. He fell to the ground, his massive body hitting the rocks and a loud thud of flesh on solid ground could be heard throughout the canyon. the stallion lay there, his breathing heavy but his body unresponsive to his will.

Athena

Athena watched in horror as the stallion was gunned down. No way! She thought in her head. Athena Galloped foreward. She was at his side in a flash. She nudged his shoulder. With no reply she pulled the dart from his skin and tried to pull him back by his mane.

Leo

Leo saw the mare after the stallion fell.Maybe he could get two of them he thought.That would make Jake real happy.He fired at the mare.Than had Wisher move forward.A rope in one hand as he came closer.Eyes watchful for any attack.

Wisher snorted at the other mare.

Athena

Athena saw him fire and flinched as the dart grazed her skin. She took off running at the man, teeth bared ears pinned back. She changed her target and tried to slam into Whisher while biting her bridle and push her off the cliff.

Chita

The cheetah saw the mare coming and lunged for her neck and attempted to clamp on and then move his body onto hers to attack and protect his owner. He hissed as he did so. this mare was stupid. No horse had he met before would charge a human!

Athena

Athena saw the cheetah jump and closed her eyes. He jumped onto her and she tried to bear the pain. He was light being a cheetah, and did little damage to a full blown horse. She still carged for whisher trying to grab her bridle and throw her off the cliff.

Leo

Wisher snorted as the other charged into her.Not expecting it she stumbled near the edge.However Leo grabbed the reins, and had her move forward at a gallop dodging Athena's attack.Seeing the cheetah on the horse Wisher smiled."Rethink your stragedy if i were you,"she called out smirking.

Leo galloped Wisher back rope in hand.He chuked it at Athena hoping to get it around her neck."Good job Chita,"he called speaking softly to the cheetah.Smiling he waited to see if the rope landed right or not.

Chita

Chita could do lots of damages. They could take down wildebeast occasionally. He made to bite into her mane and therefore her neck. Though it wasn't near her life veing. Though she would loose blood if he got it right.His tail flailed around to keep his balance as the horse flailed around.Your not gonna throw the horse over give up!He spoke in a hiss to the horse.

Athena

Athena slid to a stop so as not to fall over to the edge. She jumped into the rope he threw. I hope this works, Please wake up! She thought to herself glancing at the fallen stallion. Then she felt the Cheetah bite her neck. She whinnied and twisted around trying to throw him. When it didn't work, she galloped around Whisher and Leo once and ran to the edge. Athena stiffened and stood stock still. The rope hanging from he neck. She looked worriedly at him as blood flowed from her neck.

Leo

Leo watched this for a moment."Chita down please,"he called softly hoping he understood.Than he tied the other end of the rope to the top part of his saddle.Than he looked to the stallion he had dropped earlier.

Chita

He held on with his claws and fangs till he listened to the male and lept off and just circled the horse keeping safe distance but all the while making it so she would avoid the edge or get bitten

Leo

Leo smiled when he caught the mare in his rope.Tieing it to the saddle he looked back to the stallion with a smirk.If Morbid was still out from the gun he would throw a rope around him.If not than he wait for the stallion's reaction before he did anything.

Wisher snorted as she flicked her tail.Light sweat covered her body from the running, but she wasn't going to give up.

Leo

Leo jumped in front of Whisher nad reired. He kicked at the rider, trying to kick him off.

Chita

Chita saw this new horse and made to leap for its neck in hopes of causing it to run of. The cheetah was not afraid of any animal and would not allow its human to be hurt.Scat horse or come live with ushe growled.

Leo

Leo bucked and kicked as he tryed to get the small animal off of him.He wasn't going down easey.He would never run.Not now, not ever again.

Leo

Leo was not in the mood anymore.Especially for a over arrogent stallion.Bringing out his tranquilizer he shot it at the stallion.He waited to see what would happen.

Wisher was angered.If the stallion came near her she attack.Not trusting males from being abused by them.

Chita

Having latched on succesfully he kept his grip with his claws fully extended. He held on tightly. His tail flailing side to side to help with balance as the stallion tried its best to rid him of Chita. He wouldn't kill the stallion unless his owner and Wisher were in danger and this stallion was coming close to that.
