The mare does not politely get out of Taiga’s way as she had expected. In fact, the mare does exactly the opposite of what Taiga had expected. The dark roan squeals and pins her ears, looking for all the world like she’s ready to rip off Taiga’s head.
Any normal, reasonable horse would have just apologized for the mistake and moved on. But the recent visit of her older sister, and her subsequent realization of her demotion in her own mental hierarchy, have left her in a rather unreasonable mood. So she’s spoiling for a fight. And since the object of her ire is far away in Nerine … she takes her anger out on the stranger in front of her.
“Where do you get off, screechin’ at me like that!” Taiga scowls fiercely at the mare, her own ears pinned tightly against her skull. She is so not in the mood to be ‘sassed’ by some random she’s never met. “I was just minding my own business!” She snorts loudly, still eying the mare. “And what do you expect, just standing there like that. How am I supposed to see you through the thicket?”
She takes a few steps toward the roan, head low and threatening. “Who are you anyway? I’ve never seen you around here before.”
