A loud commanding whinny, from atop the hill behind them,
halted their petty wranglings, abruptly.
"who the?", Rhodes muttered, as he turned to look.
Desiree squinted,
and quickly realized the attempt to use her hands as a sun shield,
when the sun was behind them, was futile and illogical.
" Whoa..sis, that is Stallion, I believe."
Stallion heard and pawed the ground,
motioning them to come to him.
The siblings dutifully trotted up the hill.
" I sense your equilibriums are skewed. The sound of your dual discontent,
rang enough discordant bells that could be heard for.....well,
it was not a pleasant thing, let's leave it at that for now."
Brother and sister stood still;
quiet on the outside - both afraid to speak first - but wanting to.
" Relax, you little freaks," Stallion casually commented, as he lit a cigar.
"Rhodes, your Yin needs some attention, I have a plan, if you'll listen."
Before Desiree could even shift her weight to one hip as a body smirk,
Stallion countered,
" And you, Miss Construe, are a coming with us, don't worry,
we are going to have all sorts of glorious painful fun, you'll see.
Pardon me while I take care of an itch, please?"
Stallion then rolled about on the rough salt-grass 'till his back was slaked.
" Okay, let's go kids, march!"
