Seriously?!!!! - Hertz - 05-06-2018 Hertz
I was born to run!
"So tell me, world." Hertz said to the wind. "You seem to be alive, what with the way you tried to steal my magic and all. So how 'bout you give me some power?" He stood atop the cliffs, looking to the sky over the ocean. "Or are you not like Helovia and just go around pestering the handsome new guy?" He turned, looking for any sign that he had been heard. Seriously, if the place could try to take, it had to be able to give. He wanted some of that power for himself. It sounded thrilling, taking power from a mysterious being. But the only reply he received was the sound of the waves crashing against the cliffs. He turned again and frowned. "What? YOU SCARED?" He shouted to the sky. "Afraid to face me after being sent home with your tail between your legs, eh?" He chuckled. A coldness swept over him. He clamped his mouth shut as he felt a presence behind him. He whirled around. Thousands of eyes watched him from the shadows. The same eyes that had blinked at him within the forest of the portal. He smiled. "Finally came out to play, huh?"
A voice whispered to him, caressing his mind with fingers of ice. It spoke of tasks it needed for him to complete in order to receive the power he desired. He smirked. "Bring it on."
Have sex with another. Did the rift get off on that kind of stuff? Create a fire and burn a piece of yourself in it. Weird, but doable. Collect flora from three different regions. What, was the presence into flowers or something? It hissed. Hertz wanted to laugh. This was too easy! The coldness vanished as the presence left him. But the eyes remained. He scowled at them. He strutted off, ignoring them. "Take it in boys." He taunted as he flaunted his muscular form. Taking extra care to exaggerate the movement of his rump as he raised his tail like a war banner. One task called for him to burn a piece of himself in a fire. Easy. Still paying the hungry eyes no mind, the cocky stallion set about gathering the driest brush he could find. Which was darn hard in the wet weather that seemed to prevail in these gods forsaken lands. Once he gathered enough wood and tinder into a pile he stomped a hoof. The earth erupted into flame, igniting the pile. But it was not the only thing that erupted into flame. With a shriek of pain and surprise the arrogant boy began the buck and dance as his flesh burst into flame. The hair along his body singed and the fire threatened to devour his skin. He dropped to the ground, rolling in the damp mud and leaf litter. The flames sizzled out. Mud streamed sides heaved as Hertz lay there, stunned. "What the heck?!" he finally snarled. He stood cursing and spitting as he inspected the damage. Nothing serious, but the fur was burnt and damaged on his legs. He wasn't a dumb stallion. it did not take long for things to click into place. He raised his head to the sky. "You cheeky, two-bit, mongrel!" He roared. "You screwed with my magic!" Somewhere, he could have sworn he heard a chuckle.

#### Hertz has asked for some powers. Here he seeks to fulfill one of his tasks by burning a part of him. It works, but not the way he planned. xD

A shadow appeared. Wait no, that was a horse. He was a dude. Hertz as disappointed and irritated. Why couldn't he find a pretty girl? Did this world just have guys in it? That was a mortifying revelation. A world with only guys. No way was he messing around with another stallion. It just wouldn't be the same. He wanted a mare, blast it! Not only was this black guy not a mare, he did not speak. Mute or dumb. How was he supposed to tell which one he was? Maybe it was both. He seemed to be wondering what the heck had happened. Hertz thought about snapping. yes, he actually thought about his action. He thinks every now and again, thank you very much. "What, you ain't seen a bonfire before?" He asked. That thought process didn't last very long. "Yeah, yeah. I'm fine." He breathed through his nose. Hertz had seen the question on the man's face. Why was this guy so worried about him anyways? Was he into him? In a world with only dudes, he guessed that the guy had to find some fun somewhere. No way was he into that. Of course, he hadn't actually confirmed that this world was void of women. Best to explore a bit more. "Freak'n jerk of a world messed with my magic is, all. The fire was part of its tasks to get it set right." He scowled at the fire that was now dying. Lifting a hoof he stamped out the rest, letting out his anger on the thing.

@Hertz ooc// Feel free to stop him if you want! RE: Seriously?!!!! - Hertz - 06-27-2018 Hertz

The quiet shadow stood there, looking at him. Yeah.... He probably went too far. When the black man turned her closed his eyes and sighed. "Look, I'm sorry." He said. "I took my frustrations out on you, it wasn't right." He approached the other. "Kinda stinks having your magic messed with, turned on you." If Seiji would try and leave he would trot after him. The other guy was not a chick, but he was better than talking with himself.
Of course, wouldn't he still be talking with himself since this dude didn't speak? Huh. That was too complicated, best no think about it. "So..." He said, looking off into the forest. "You don't talk much." His gaze turned back to the black stallion. "Can't talk?" His head lowered as he titled it as he trotted along. His wings raised slightly to help him balance better as he moved. He had never met someone like this odd fellow and he wasn't quite ready to let him go.

Yup. Blackie couldn't talk. He was also a big softie and it took all but a simple apology to get him to turn and accept his presence once more. His trot held a confident, cocky dance to it. He was looking at him again. Appearantly when you can't talk you have to look at people and hope they understood. This guy got the looks down pat, Hertz wasn't having any trouble telling what he wanted. At least, right now. Who knew he was such an awesome mute-reader. New talent unlocked! He smiled to himself. "So, if you can't talk. Why not ask this world to change that?" he said, making small talk with the man as if he could actually carry a conversation. "It messed with my magic and when I started yelling at it about the fact, it gave me tasks to fix it. I imagine the world could give ya a voice, or something close to it. Course, it seems to have a twisted sense of humor." It also had a dirty mind. Talk about someone that'd like slutty books. It was slightly disturbing to think that the world like to yank people around for its entertainment. Oh well, it kept things interesting.

Again with that curious look. It seemed this guy had no idea what he was talking about. He shook out his main. Oi. "I'm assuming you have no magic, so this place probably didn't mess with you when you entered." he said. "Or it did and stole your voice. I don't really care. But it seems if you ask it, it will give you an answer how to fix what's wrong with you. Ya just gotta want something from it and it seems to know and respond from that. All I did was yell at the sky and it told me to do stuff to fix my own magic." He raised a brow as he looked at the black stallion. Get it? It was a simple enough explanation. Surely he had caught on? "Might as well give it a try." he suggested. "Seems to understand desires as much as words. I'd bet it'd figure out what you wanted and give you some sort of answer." He flicked his tail. Actually curious if the other would give it a go right then an there. It wasn't everyday you get to watch someone receive a set of trials from this world. Could you even watch it? There probably wasn't much to see.
