Beyond the Horizon (Open RP)

OoC: Okies, I felt like making an RP to use my Centaur couple, Erani and Ceto in and this is it. The RP is open to everyone, but ask me first to join!

BiC: The light breeze flowed gracefully above the terrain as the young Centaur warrior known as Erani traveled about, making her way down a peaceful shoreline. It was mid-afternoon, nearly around the time where Erani started her daily hunt for a fish dinner. However, as usual as it was, the Centaur this time did not feel like eating. Too many thoughts had begun to clutter in her mind, the most of which were related to the love of her life, a Centaur man named Ceto.

Erani brought her right hand to her chest level and looked hopefully at a piece of shiny gold clutched in her fingers. She had found this valuable treasure along a river deep within a canyon and ended up fighting against a human who also desired the golden rock. Although Erani had prevailed in keeping it, it did not change her mood very drastically. For this piece of gold was the only thing Erani had to serve as a part of Ceto himself. He adored the beauty of shiny rocks and had often collected them when he and Erani were young and still a part of their Centaur herd.

Still, what were the chances of actually seeing him again any time soon? This world was wide and anyone could be anywhere. Even so, however, Erani decided not to give up. She would one day reunite with him if it was the last thing she ever accomplished and continued on past some rugged, rocky terrain along the shore.

Erani almost didn't notice something out of the ordinary in the distance a few minutes later. A large figure stood atop a high rock overlooking the vast ocean beside her. As Erani silently approached the figure, she made it out to be a fellow Centaur. It was a rather handsome Centaur man in armor and a small cape over his shoulder. A winter-colored staff was sheathed at his back. Erani moved even closer to this Centaur, but found the newly revealed features to be striking. Gray-black fur... she thought. Dark red hair and tail...just like Ceto. But...this can't be him. He doesn't have a staff or garb like that. ...Does he?

Erani's question was answered within the next few seconds. The Centaur man turned around and began walking in another direction, revealing his front side and facial features. Midnight blue eyes sparkled in the setting sunlight along with the gold medallion attached to his cape. I don't believe it...it is him! Erani exclaimed in her mind. He looks so blue...and he doesn't even know I'm here. She was about to run full speed ahead into his arms for the first time in ages, but before Erani could make her move, Ceto made his first. He unsheathed his staff from his back and twirled it once in his hand.

"Maybe some more training will take my mind off things for awhile," he said to himself and pointed it at some rocks nearby. However, Ceto was unaware that Erani was behind one. As he started with an Ice Blast attack for kicks, the large beams of ice blew two of them to pieces on impact. A thin ice sheet was left behind. However, one other noise, one Ceto did not expect to hear, sounded forth from the other side of his attack. It was a female shriek, a painful one it sounded like.

"What was that?!" Ceto gasped. "Was someone back there?" He immediately raced into the remains of the rocks to investigate. To his dismay, he saw none other than Erani's limp form lying on the rocky terrain, unable to tell whether or not she was alive. A piece of gold lay beside her now bruised and dirty body. Ceto gasped in shock when he recognized the features of the girl he loved and couldn't prevent himself from weeping.

"...Erani?!" he exclaimed, dropping to the ground and lifting her human torso into his arms. "NO! No! What have I done?! Erani, please forgive me..."
