Mercury threw his head up as Fiona left... and began running after her! "Mercury!" Pyro stood quickly, slipping on the hay again and falling on his face. He jumped to his feet again and made a leap for the horse. He grabbed his tail, but it slipped from his hands. The boy, still sticky from wine and now covered in hay was having a hard time getting around. He stood for a third time and began running after the horse. Guests who had decided to leave the ball early stared at the sight. "Mercury!"

Ellie turned to see the horse following her. Oh, of all the rotten luck, now all of the guests were staring at her... then she heard one of the gaurds gasp and shout the alarm. 'Crap,' she thought, 'they recognized Fiona and now they think that I'm the possible kidnapper, or that I'm stealing her.'

"Mercury!!!" Pyro slowed down when he passed Jirynd, panting. He watched the horses move farther and farther away. "My horse... is running... awa...ay..." He gasped.

Ellie sighed, she really hated to be a bother to other people. She turned Fiona around and so as to get the horse back to it's owner. She wondered if there could be a trick to it.

Pyro thanked her sheepishly and fell backward, stretching out, "I will die now," He muttered. Mercury bent down to lick the wine off of his forehead. He still had his ear turned toward Fiona and his muscles were tensed...

Ellie looked at the gaurds uneasily, seeing that she wasn't safe. "I would keep a hold of your horse before I go off." She said it in as boyish of a voice that she could muster.

Pyro reached up and grabbed the horse's halter, looking up at Jirynd. ((*cough cough* JIRYND!!!))

"So, did you run into some difficulty?" Jirÿnd asked, standing over the fallen Pyro. Giving him another look-over, he added, "You look awful."
Jirÿnd had been as serious as he could in his last two comments, but it was all he could so to keep the laughter in. What a mess Pyro had gotten himself into! How could he have possibly managed that in the little time he was gone?
When the new boy spoke, Jirÿnd looked up to see a 'beautiful' boy. And then, even for the smallest, flighting moment, he wondered...
(( Like I said, I've deleted three posts already! >< Curses and maledictions upon these slow hands of mine! ))

((Heeheehee...)) Ellie smiled, then glanced back at the gaurds who were slowly coming. Quickly she got Fiona to start running. She quickly got the horse into a gallop and jumped the fence into the field. Now she was going to have to run like the wind to escape the gaurds.

Mercury pursued her, nearly ripping Pyro's arm off as he got away. "MERCURY! YOU CURSED FIEND!" He yelled before running again, "THAT'S MY GOOD ARM YOU ALMOST REMOVED!"

"Calm down, Scarecrow!" Jirÿnd called after Pyro. Jogging over to him, Jirÿnd tugged on his sleeve and started into the forest. "Follow me. I think I know where they're going, and I can get there before they."

((Awwwww... is Jirynd in love?! lol)) Ellie kept Fiona at a good pace. Making sure that she swerved and double tracked to make it more difficult to follow her.

"Thank heavens," Pyro sighed, "Will you carry me?" He joked in spite of himself. Mercury had a harder time, but he was quick and sure-footed still and kept up fairly well. ((maybe Pyro's really a girl in disguise Pyro: .... -_-'))

(( Ah! But! I-I thought you said this was strictly no //? *shifty eyes* Jirÿnd: Tish. Give it up, you're terrible at lying. ))
After a quiet laugh, he said quite bluntly, "No. Besides, I could hardly drag you! You share your horse's weight." He glanced back with a grin to show his good humor, but it was probably lost in the darkness of the forest.
After they had come upon a little stream, Jirÿnd started going north a little, and then stopped. "If I'm not mistaken," He told Pyro, "They should have to cross this stream. We'll be able to hear the pound of their hooves after the jump."

((I KNEW IT! PYRO IS A GIRL I TELL YOU! Pyro: I have no shame in proving otherwise... Me: *whispers* Believe him... he has no shame at all... *wraps him in duct tape* Okay, okay, I believe you! You aren't a girl! Enough cross-dressing, peeps! Pyro: 'cross-dressing'? Me: *points to his medieval tunic and tights* YOU WEAR NO PANTS BUT YOU WEAR A DRESS! Pyro: *sighs and shakes head*))

And Jirynd was right. Soon Ellie was coming towards the stream. Urging her tired and sweating horse onward she jumped the stream. Then she turned into the woods, so as to be able to give her horse a break.

((didja read my post above yours, Elli?)) Pyro then ambushed his own horse, giving him the biggest scare. Pyro wrapped his arm around the colt's neck and latched onto his mane. It was stupid, but he was desperate. It was not very long before Pyro miraculously learned to fly! ... and he landed in the shallow stream. He needed to bathe anyway...

((lol!)) Ellie heard the noises and so she went a little deeper. Then she stopped her horse to rest for a bit. She led her to the stream that had wound it's way to where she had stopped, so her horse could get a drink.

(( *lol* Even Jirÿnd wears pants! ))
Shaking his head, Jirÿnd went to Pyro and helped him up. "Hurry, or your horse will be alight again!" Jirÿnd said, resisting the urge to comment on Pyro's little flight. Following the tracks the horses had left behind, the two of them came across the young boy and the horses.

This time, Pyro went up slowly, either because he wanted to try a different approach, or his body ached too much for going any faster. "Hello," He said, both to the boy and the horse. ((Pyro: Tunics are not dresses! Me: Whatever. Pyro: Let me wear pants! Me: Fine... over your tights! XD Pyro: So long as no one sees them, I am fine with that...))
