Blue didn't feel any pain. She didn't feel the blood fall down her back. She didn't moo in pain or tried to heal her wounds.
Because she simply didn't care.
All her life Blue had been misunderstood. Deer of The Endless Forest tried to chase her away, and although the forest was indeed endless, there was a way that Blue did not know that would lead you out of the forest.
They chased her because they believed she was a demon from hell. When Blue was born, and she first opened her eyes, they were blood red. The deer believed when a fawn was born with red eyes, they are demon spies from hell that were on a mission to destroy the world. Blue did not believe this. She was not a demon from hell.
But, if she couldn't be chased out of the forest, she would be beaten, and the blood would fall down her back. She would cry in pain and run away, leaving a blood trail behind. The deer would follow the trail and beat her some more until she is almost dead.
But now Blue didn't care. She wanted to die if she would be treated like this. And now was her chance.
Earlier that day, she had been attacked by a herd of some mini deer. They jumped up and with their antlers, they pierced her back. The mini herd then ran away, but Blue did not cry in pain. She did not run away. She just walked and walked.
Blue lied down in some tall grass. The grass become blood stained and smelt of Blue's blood. Slowly, she closed her eyes and fell asleep, hoping that she would die in her sleep.
Peppers, who was traveling
Alarmed Peppers froze. "h - ... hello?" She stammered. Was this deer even alive? She saw the shallow breathing and felt a little more comfortable. She took a step forward. "You poor deer!" She exclaimed. "What happened to you?"
Blue woke from her sleep. She
Or maybe he had not heard about the demon deer.
Blue slowly got up and looked at Peppers with her blood red eyes.
Peppers looked at Blue's
Blue was surprised that this
"I'm Blue," she said. "Yours?"
"My name's Peppers." Peppers
The Old Stag had taken over
As he walked, lost in his twisted thoughts, he saw in the distance a bloodied doe, tended to by another. Something about the doe intrigued him, a rarity that shocked him when he realized he kept staring. What had happened? Who attacks a doe? Even he had more class than that. It was then that he saw her red eyes, and understood. They think she is a demon, he thought bitterly. That makes it okay to senselessly attack her in their eyes. Pitiful deer and their prejudice and fear. He felt rage well inside him, and, bizarrely, compassion for her. He refused to get too close, convincing himself he didn't care and suddenly becoming wary of her companion, but he found his feet had thoughts of their own, and he was now only feet away from her, her back thankfully turned to him. With any luck she wouldn't see him, and her friend would be too busy to notice...
Sorry its long. I figured I'd set up the character, in case you've never met Sionnach, and I can get carried away. o_o
(It's okay! XD Moon Theif
Peppers flicked her ears behind her, did she hear something? Peppers continued to wash the doe before she heard something again. She stopped cleaning and heard a crack in the grass. She jumped up. Who was making all that racket!? She turned around and saw a stag. She took a step back. "Who are you?" She asked hesitantly.
She then remembered the doe and jumped to be infront of the doe incase if the stag was hostile. "What do you want?"
(oooh, that's gotta happen
Suddenly faced by the strange doe, he sighed. Why did he have to get involved in this...
"I have no name. I saw blood on the ground. You're near my home," he gestured to the old oak tree, several yards away. He had taken it upon himself to label it his. It was one of few places he felt calm, and his mind was quieted. So it was his. To hell with anyone else. "If deer see blood they'll think I did something," he sneered. Resisting the urge to get any information out of the other doe before trying to get away, he simply huffed, "just get her out of here, and soon," hiding his strange interest in the injured doe behind his typical apathy and anger towards the forest residents. He never cared about anyone, why should he start now?
Peppers felt anger bundle up
The stag simply snorted at
Peppers looked at the plants
"And don't you think just because you gave us those plants makes me think anything else kind of you!" Peppers said to the stag biting her snarl once more. "Stags like you make me want to lose my temper, but I don't want to give you the plessure." She said tossing her hairlike peacock feathers behind her with a hmph to make him annoyed.
The whole time Blue was
Why weren't the deer attacking? Blue didn't stray on this thought for long. Simply, she thought, they don't know about the cursed doe. And I shouldn't tell them about it if we want to be friends.
The plants were helping Blue. Slowly, she looked at the unnamed buck. "Thank you." Blue whispered, for she could not talk any louder due to her injuries.
The old stag didn't respond
He turned his attention to her companion again though, and smirked. "Ah, but you already have. How fun for me when you lot try to take the high road and fail. Now, tell me," he fixed his gaze on the standing doe, "Who are you? Why aren't you being stupid like the rest of them and running from her? Or, for that fact, me? And," he turned to the injured doe once more, "Who... are you?"
"I am Peppers and I would
"Well, aren't you noble,"
Peppers sighed, trying to
oops double post
Track. Will reply soon
The stag gave a dry,
Peppers snorted. "And were
Blue no longer thanked the
"And if you think i'm a demon," she said, "how do you like THIS?!" Blue reared up and pounded on the buck's back. Then Blue bit hard on his shoulder, and didn't let go until a few seconds, then she bucked him on the side.
"Now you know how it feels!" Blue mooed, and ran away crying.
The ragged buck was
"Oh, little deer, I've known how it feels for a long time now," he muttered more to himself than Peppers or the blue doe as she ran off, though not getting far with her wounds. His scars were faded but still there, a thick, dark line running from his neck to his haunches, branching out along the way down to his shoulders, sides and hips. The dark brown of the scars almost matched the dark orange-red of his pelt, creating, in a fit of irony, an almost pretty appearance. He couldn't even remember how he got some of them... they just seemed to appear. He suddenly felt a lighter, but sadder change come over him... how is this happening? What's wrong with me?
"Well then, Peppers, it seems you are not of this forest then. I hope you stay that way. Don't give in to their superstitions and rumors. Their lies." His posture and expression remained stoic, but there was a hint of sadness in his voice. He felt like he was going to say more, but he was so tired... exhausted... he was still standing, but how? It almost felt as if he were being dragged down into darkness... into sleep... and something else was rising...
Peppers stared at the stag,
"Blue," Peppers said, "What's wrong?"
Blue dipped her head down and
"Blue, what's wrong?"
Blue turned around and saw Peppers staring at her.
"I just can't take it anymore," she said. Her voice was weak and shaky. "I am so sick of deer beating me and telling me to go back to hell. There are many differences between me and a demon." Blue paused, shivering, and looked at the moon's reflection again.
"I am a normal deer. I don't know why this is happening." Blue closed her eyes, then opened them. She didn't know what to say now. She waited for Peppers to reply, half expecting him to beat her until she was dead.
For if Blue was beat now, with her injuries, she surely would be dead.
Peppers sighed, and felt
Peppers looked up at the moon. "I don't really understand some deer. If you were a demon, you would've faught back or something. They should've realized that." Peppers now felt frustration. "Those heartless idiots." She cursed.
Sionnach's fur brightened up
Sionnach has MPD and about 5 known personalities, this one of which thinks its still a fawn. He isn't actually a fawn and looks the same as the old stag(except for the brighter pelt, etc.) Just saying so this doesn't sound weird xD
(Okay yeah, I was sorta
(My dumb fault for not
"I don't understand other
Then it snapped.
Blue hurt the poor stag. She didn't mean too. Her mind was just being controlled by her anger.... which suddenly she realized was the demon inside her.
She was a demon. A devil. An agent from hell.
Blue could hurt anyone. The hell inside her controlled her. Blue could even hurt Peppers...
NOTE: Blue is not literally a demon. She just thinks she is because she feels the guilt of hurting that deer.
Peppers sighed relaxingly.
"I think... I will." Blue
The buck was not there.
"Um.. hello? Are you here?" Blue said. No answer.
"I'm... here to apologize for everything. I was just... angry."
Blue could only hope the buck listened. For no one has ever listened to her.
Bairn was confused as he
"Who are you talking to?" He whispered to the blue doe, tilting his head. He noticed she was pretty scraped up, too. She was the one he was looking for! "Hey, did you get hurt by the monster too? I think there's a monster here... and he got me... we have to hide!" he suddenly became panicky, and the large stag before them seemed more childlike than ever. "The oak is a good place to hide... and... can, um... can I stay with you?"
Peppers fur prickled and felt
She looked at the stag's coat and it seemed now lighter, but the same scent of the other hostile stag. Peppers peered at the stag. "Of course you can stay with us, but, er-- what happened to you?" peppers observed. "Your coat's a different color from the last we've met."
The buck looked dumbfounded.
Peppers hesitated and took a
Blue looked at the stag. She
"Yeah, and remember when I attacked you?" Once again, the doe felt ashamed of her actions. Maybe she was a demon.
"Of course I have a name!
Bairn froze, pure terror taking over him. She attacked him? He was just a fawn, what did he do to deserve that cruelty? His eyes widened and filled with tears. Was she the monster he was running from, trying to protect them from? "You did that to me? Why? What did I ever do to you?" The buck backed away from them slowly as he spoke, before running away into the cavern of the oak.
Peppers was confused, why was
"I'm sorry... I got so fed
Those red eyes.
They made her angry. Too miserable. But she had to face it. Blue had hurt that buck. And that was why he was acting crazy. She had brought evilness to the world.
Blue was a demon.
And she did not like Earth. She wanted to go to Hell. Blue didn't want to be here anymore. World was her Hell, Hell was her Heaven.
So, Blue jumped into the water and watched the fish swim by. Quickly she passed out underwater. Her heartbeat become slower every second.
Blue was dieing. The blood stained the water. But no one saved her. No one cared. And Blue was happy.
"Blue!" Peppers called after
Maybe she should have some time alone. Peppers thought to herself. No, with deer who act crazy towards red eyed deer I must follow her to make sure she will be okay.
Peppers trotted slowly and creeped up behind a tree and peeked around it to look for Blue. Peppers felt astonished. Where had Blue gone? Then she saw a red in the pond and Peppers fur stood on end. What was happeneing? Peppers looked closer.
"Blue!" Peppers screeched running to the pond and fishing her out and setting her on the ground in a sunny spot. "Blue what were you doing?" peppers asked, setting Blue up to get the water out of her lungs.
Blue opened her eyes to see
Blue jumped away from Peppers and shook herself to dry. "You saved me!" She said. And before Peppers could say anything Blue shouted, "You just ruined my life! I was trying to drown!"
"I wanted to go away! I was tired of other deer beating me! And I was about to get away from all the horror when you had to save me!" Blue gave a snort in frustration, and ran away. The water had cleaned off all her blood, so there was no blood trail, and no one could follow her. No one saw her for the rest of the night. Nor the day after. Soon it was a week, and the Forest decided to have a meeting at the Twin Gods.
Rails and Slick, two brothers, also known as the Guardians of the Twin Gods, mooed for everyone to shut up.
"One of the deer, Blue, is gone." Announced Rails. Many deer started chatting at once, Then, a deer told everyone the story, for he was there.
"She drowned." He mooed, and everyone was as happy as ever.
Peppers stared after Blue,
Maybe I should've just ecnored her like anyother deer woud have. She thought to herself. Atleast that way I wouldn't have to hear about another deer going suicide.
Peppers walked back to the oak tree and rested her head on the bark on the outside of it and sighed, closing her eyes.
