Nodin stared away from them. "So.....who....who's the father..." he asked slowly.

Zenya: I sighed. "Stormcast."

Nodin's eyes flashed angrily. He glanced at the foal again and then turned away. He began to walk away without a word.

Zenya: I ran to Nodin's side. "What is wrong? Is it something about Stormcast being Zoro's father?" I nuzzled him.

Nodin turned to a wolf and leapt back, snarling. "What the hell do you think?!" he growled. His glowing eyes drifted over to the foal.

Zenya: I stared at him. "I don't have a stallion, or a mate."

Nodin stared at her. "What's your point?" he growled.

Zenya: I sighed. "My point is, if I don't have a stallion or mate why should it matter. And I'm giving Zanari another soldier."

Nodin snorted and glanced at the foal again. His nose wrinkled in disgust. He leapt into a tree, his claws digging into its rough bark. The wolf stared out across his territory.

Zenya: I sighed and started grazing, moving slightly closer to Zoro.

Nodin watched them carefully. He suddenly felt an urge to eat as his belly rumbled. He stared at the foal from the corner of his eye.

Zenya: I looked up at him then at Zoro. I pawed the ground uneasily.

Nodin glanced from Zoro to Zenya and smiled. "Nervous, Zenya?" he asked slyly.

Zenya: I stomped my hoofs nervously, laying my ears back in an agressive posture. "I will kill you if you touch him."

Zoro: stands there not knowing what to do.

Nodin laughed and leapt down to the ground, transforming to normal. "Is that so?" he asked, approaching her slowly with a grin flickering across his face.
