The puzzle [Vel!!!!]

[Vel]

The stallion would honestly admit he was a bit confused as to why the mare smiled when she gave him her answer to his almost rhetorical question. It always annoyed him to some degree when horses would answer questions that he had meant to be rhetorical. It was all just a part of his spoken monologue. Of course, how were they to know when he had been conversing (if it could even be called that) just moments prior.

Jigsaw wanted to laugh at her question and patronize her for inquiring about such a silly thing. "Many a 'orse would enjoy this love. Y'jus' gotta learn how to relax..." he breathed out, touching his muzzle to her coat in a fake caress. "An' obviously, I enjoy this, an' tha's all that pret'y much matters 'ere." he said, a careless tone weaving it's way in and out of his rough vocals.

Audits flattened against his skull as the mare gave a pathetic attempt to take a bite out of him. "Is that what y'call self-defense love?" he asked with a laugh. "That wouldn't even chase a fly off! My dear, I'm surprised y'aven't already been taken by some other stallion." he said with a sad shake of his head. "Y'truly are a sad excuse for a fae." he spat at her, letting her know what she was. "But, y'sure are a gorgeous lit'le thing."

The stag proceeded to move even closer to her as she pleaded for him to just get it over with. "An' where would the fun be in that love?" he asked her, another chuckle escaping his dry lips. She was much too fun to just take now and discard as a broken mare. She deserved something a little bit more... special. Perhaps he could 'really' teach her how to defend herself. It might do her some good. She would learn what not to do, and Jigsaw would get his masochistic pleasures out of it.

Disa was mad, no pissed. How dare he call her a sad excuse?! Just at the moment Azu swooped in from the sky, attempting to rake his long talons alone the stallion's back.
I'm sooo Pissed off, Azu!
tsh, of course you are.
Disa knew this was her chance. The air filled with anger then fear. She attempted to rake her hooves across his pelt. "How. Dare. You. Call. Me. A. Sad. EXCUSE!!!!" She raged, aiming for another blow. Azu aimed an attack to the neck while Disa aimed another rake across the pelt. Again with all these emotions Disa turned invisible, but for 5 seconds then apeared again. She snorted, and said,"Now, leave me alone...."

Jigsaw looked up from his prey momentarily as he heard the noisy swish of wings from a hawk. Damn birds were horrible at sneaking up on anything. No wonder their kind had slolwy been dying out on Isola Dei Dei. Their food would hear them just in time to escape the now clear and present danger. He quickly deduced that at bird was friends with this pathetic creature. Great. She was one of those bird-buddies as he liked to call them; horses who would suck up to the birds only to use them for their personal gain. This was one of those times he would benefit her, swooping down at Jigsaw like this. The stallion snort and half reared, reaching out with his teeth to hopefully grab the bird, or to at least injure him in any way possible. That winged rat needed to be disposed of. Not to mention Jigsaw would only be doing him a kindness, seeing as he would have a hard time trying to catch his own food.

Jigsaw was grazed across the front of the chest by the mare's hooves. His brow raised as he heard her raise her voice. "Oooo, y'angry now, are ya?" he prodded, delighted that he had finally won. His whole motive had been to make her snap like this. Success. Jigsaw found it funny how meaningless words like that could cause someone to explode like this. It was like watching the heat rise under a pot of water, anticipating the moment when it would boil over.

Jigsaw easily moved out of her range as she lunged at him again. He foudn it a bit sad that she made her attacks so open, so unguarded, not to mention way too obvious. She had obviously never been trained as a fighter, and from her looks, that was something that she reamined far from. Jigsaw's ears went flat against his skull and he reached to bite her, but quickly spun around and aimed a hard kick for her head and neck. Unfortunately he could not get his second blow in when the mare's feathered friend raked his talons across the stallion's neck. Jigsaw snorted at him and once again reared up, reaching for the feathered creature with his teeth.

When Jigsaw landed he saw her hooves coming at him again, wondering how she was able to turn so well in the very cramped space. There was barely room for her to breath let alone turn and aim kicks at him. Whatver the reason there was one up to this. With her being so close her kicks did not do much damdge since she could not follow through all the way. Her hooves connected with his chest, but did nothing more than push him back a bit. Jigsaw quickly boxed her in again, knwoing that these kciks would just cause pushing and mild bruises. "Love, y'only gave me more reasons t'continue on with ya, knowin' tha' I knows y'got that in you. Pret'y sad that this only came out when meaningless things were said. Didn't your mum ever tell ya 'sticks 'n' stones may break yer bones, but words ain't never gonna hurt ya?'"

Disa was even more angry when Azu fell to the ground, not moving. She was about to aim another blow when she was kicked in the head. She stumbled back until her side touched the rock. "No." She said. Disa lowered head, tired as hell. She groaned softly at her aching body. Her eyes finally fell off the stallion and onto the ground. Her body was tense and ready again to fight even though that was impossible without death. "No, my mother died from people like you." She said, saying the word you with a managable hiss. Disa was following her mother's past.

The stallion's orange optics followed the bird as he fell to the ground, motionless. Jigsaw did not know if he was injured or if he had killed that rat with wings, nor did he care if he was dead or injured, just as long as he was not being pest any longer. He quickly turned his attention back to the mare, seeing her fall to the ground. A sadistic smile spread across his muzzle when he saw this. She was jsut another vain mare who thought that she could get out of situations like this, away from stallions like Jigsaw.

Jigsaw moved to stand towering before her as she pleaded with him not to and then went on about how her mother died from someone like him. Probalby his father. "Oh, 'ow sad." he said sarcastically. "I guess you'll jus' be followin' your mum's footsteps, eh? I don't see a problem with that'. Mothers are soemthin' to wanna follow their lives. So... I'll give y'two choices. One, y'can lemme kill ya 'ere, OR, two, y'can come with me back t'my 'erd. I think Aro'll like you. You're such a pret'y mare, an' all tha' beauty shouldn't be wasted out 'ere."

[Mad Nysa]

Disa knew her choice. Her mother wouldn't want her killed. She turned her eyes to Azu. He was gone.
Go!!!! I'll be back don't worry.
but Disa....
No buts go!!!!!!
She lifted her head up to see him flying away, looking back with sadness. "Choice two, please." She sighed, no longer seeing Azu in the sky. Flashes of some of her mother's past flashed in her mind. "What's the catch?" She asked, seeing there had to be a catch. Well it could be worse. She thought. Like a reaper.... Disa had heard of the dreaded reapers. They were vampires to pretty much all other horses with their fangs, venom, and bloodlust.

Jigsaw rolled his eyes at her words. Of course, the always picked that, why shouldn't they? The stallion hoped that just once in his life someone would pick option one. It would oh so much fun. Not for his victim, but it would be the most fun, wonderful thing that Jigsaw would get to do in a long time. Perhaps the next pathetic, unsuspecting horse he stumbled across.

"There ain't no catch." he told her. "Yer jus' gunna follow me t'my 'erd an' we're gonna go find Aro, the leader, an' 'e will decide what t'do with ya. 'Til then, I suggest y'do as I say, or you'll regret it. Now get yer sorry arse up off tha' ground and come along. Mind you, I ain't afraid t'urt chya." The stag brought his head down and roughly nudged her, while trying to kick her again for good measure when he had lifted his head back up.

OOC: would you like to post in Aro's lands now?
