Grass crunched under Oria`s feet as she plotted briskly through the forest. She still felt a bit weary, but a little better after her talk with Phaios. As usual, thoughts of her sister whirled in the back of her mind- was she safe? Happy? How are the fawns?
The antlered doe sighed, reluctantly pushing the thoughts out of her mind. Remember what Phaios said. She thought to herself. Aria`s isn`t entirely your responsibility. Others can look after her as well.
A sudden scent made the doe stop in her tracks. Whoever it was, the scent was very familiar....

Zash didn't bother doing, well much of anything. He had just looked over to notice a white doe moving some distance off. He had considered following, since he was genuinely curious as to how she had faired in his absence. The last he had spoken to her, she seemed...confused and frustrated. Was she like that now?
Though when Oria stopped, he knew she had either had some notion of his existence or had picked up his scent. He shifted and started away from the shadows to slowly intercept her course. He didn't have the energy-or the coordination- to do much more than walk. He considered calling out, but he bit his tongue. That would just ruin the silence and probably spook her in the process.
//squeals// Its great to see
Ohhh, yeah he needs to talk
Yeah he's old, all the years
Maybe! I`m pretty lazy,

Looking over, Oria spotted a grey and white stag slinking through the shadows nearby. She tilted her head, trying to determine who it was. Then, it clicked.
"Zash?"

Awwwww. Zash tries to stay
@Poppy
"Hey, Oria. How are you?" He halted as he came within a few feet of her, looking her over. She seemed okay. But most of her issues were in the mind anyhow.
Yes, he is very lucky,

Bear lifted his head from the cold pool he was drinking from, smelling a very familiar scent near by.
"Oria?" he called, getting out of the small stream, shaking himself dry.
Oria smiled. It was good to
"Hey, Zash! I`m pretty good, I suppose." She shrugged. "How are you?"

Why thank you! I still have a couple of things to work out, but I think it gets the point across. I like compact bios that can hold a lot of information. But, thank you! I thought it was pretty cool too. Even better when I realized I could make it. xD
@Poppy and Nettle(I'm assuming, Nettle, that you're joining into the existing RP? If not then that's okay too, I just want to clarify.)
Pretty good? Better than dead, he supposed. "All right I guess," he replied, mimicking her shrug with a teasing half smile, "I'm glad to hear you're okay though, Oria." he murmured. His ear twitched, causing his brown eye to glance away, "Did you just hear something?"
Yes, I will be joining into
Bear continued to call, shuffling hiself through bushes and grass. He had not seen the doe for a long time, well, he had not seen anyone for a long time.
OH THIS GONNA BE GOOD. XD

"You too Zash. Things have been hard, but I guess it`s getting better. Doesn`t make Aria`s situation easier, though. Phaios told me that she`s having some problems with Irie." Oria sighed. She really did want to be more involved in her niece and nephews lives, but at the same time she wanted a life of her own. Selfish, yes. But could it be justified?
Right now, she was happy just sitting with Zash. He was a good friend, though she hadn`t known him too long. Her ears flicked. She looked behind her, to see a large stag nearby. He, too, looked familiar..
Oria froze, the fur on her back standing up. Was that...
"B-bear..."
EDIT: And yes, that was Oria. I was wondering why he kept moving. XD

Bear. Zash wheeled himself around, spotting the stag not some distance away. Too close. Too close and he had barely noticed him. How? Was his other ear going deaf too? Anger flared through him as he shifted to place himself between the doe and the other stag. His scruffy fur spiked up along his spine as he stared at the male, but said nothing.
Oria`s eyes lifted in
The closeness of the other stag somewhat alarmed her. That, and the fact that he was supposed to be dead. Yes- he was dead, he had to be!
Right?
Oria closed her eyes as she remembered the first and only time she`d met Bear. She had been with her sister and Zash- that was the first time she had met Zash, as well. Or so she thought. Bear had come raging, accusing Aria of ruining his life because she didn`t feel the same way about him as he did her. At first, of course, Oria had been furious at the prospect of anyone blaming her sister for anything. She`d probably have fought him herself had Zash not.
Then, they later discovered that in despair, Bear had thrown himself into the Pond. Oria couldn`t believe it... she`d begged for some sort of forgiveness on her part, aware that she didn`t know everything.
But none of that mattered much right now. No matter what had happened, Bear still had almost harmed her sister. And she had no idea how this stag would react to seeing the stag that fought him off and the sister of the doe who refused him again.

Bear immediately stopped,
Zash?
The name flashed through his mind like hellfire, and anger boiled inside him.
He stood there, observing the two with deep eyes.

Zash ignored the doe's annoyance, his whole attention focused on the giant. He tried to figure out his motives as the tense silence rolled between them, but he really couldn't say. Bear seemed just as angry to see him as Zash was to see him. Suddenly, he shifted his weight, moving out of Oria's way.
"He was calling your name; he wants to speak with you," he muttered to the white doe. Whether that still held true because Zash was now in the picture, he couldn't say, but he'd rather let Oria talk with him than giving it a shot himself.
Oops, sorry! |D Oria
Oria narrowed her eyes, staring at the large stag. Inside, she was scarcely keeping from trembling. But her own feelings didn`t matter; she had to stay strong for Aria.
If all went well, perhaps she wouldn`t have to now. Knowing their luck, though, it probably wouldn`t.
Oria nodded. "Alright. What do you need, Bear?" She could hardly keep the contempt out of her voice.

He looked at her eyes, and
"I.....I" he could not speak, for his mouth was unpleasantly dry.
Oria did not blink. The stag
"What?" A single word escaped her mouth. Her eyes glowed with bright blue emotion, in stark contrast to her black mask.

Zash glanced between them but
"Things have changed, Oria,
Oria glared at the stag.
"Oh, really? I`m surprised that you know." Her voice was condescending, laced with bitterness. "Last time I`d heard of you, you`d flung yourself into a pond like a coward who couldn`t handle the truth."
The doe took a careful step closer to the massive stag, painfully aware that he was much larger than her. But that didn`t seem to matter much right now.
"Do you realize how much you hurt her when you did that? How could you? Why did you need to fling more stress into her life? Why couldn`t you have just been friends? She needed all the help she could get."
And now, you have the audacity to come back here? You`re supposed to be dead."

Oria rant :3

The stag was taken aback,
"You have no idea how it feels!" he replied, looking from Oria to Zash.
Oh crap. So much he wants to
"We don't know?" Zash repeated, suddenly coming alive. He took several limping steps toward the male, keeping enough distance so he didn't have to crane his neck up to look at him. He opened his mouth to speak, but stopped himself. He couldn't talk about that. Or that.
In that moment all of the fight went out of him, the anger flickering one last time before it snuffed out, "I know how that feels all too well," he muttered finally, angry and embarrassed that he let himself be sucked in and controlled by his own emotions.
Something flashed in Bears
That didn`t excuse him from what he had done, though.
"What do you mean, how it feels? Whatever you feel doesn`t come nearly as close to the pain Aria`s been though!" Oria replied, eyes gleaming with fury.
Her force of her own words surprised her. That had been a bit harsh. But Bear needs to know.
Oria turned to look at Zash, a bit surprised to be that he looked more melancholy than angry. Hadn`t he been as furious as her just moments before. Oria sighed, once again reminding herself that there was so much she didn`t know.

Yep! Don`t stress yourself
Should we continue the with just Zash and Oria? Come to the think of it, I should probably start an rp with Aria. XD

No, we should wait for Nettle
Hmm, good idea. I don`t think
And Oria has some things to settle with Bear as well. So it`s good to wait.
