Duck Lake The Warrior & The Princess

She was quick, he gave her that, and skilled, he admitted that begrudgingly, knowing that because of his pride he gained an insignificant injury but an injury nonetheless. Zeus was teaching him a lesson, and so was Athena, but the sheer fury of Ares still ran through him and fueled him with energy. The gods themselves were proud, probably even prouder than himself but it was alright for them right? The immortal super beings. Arion nearly scowled, and he would have, even in a middle of a fight but he did not, after all, he did fear Zeus's wrath.

Arion fought back, using both his agility and strength but the injury she gave him slowed him down, not a lot but it was enough. He would not admit defeat unless the gods themselves gave judgement, clouds were gathering over the sky and the stallion knew the king of the gods was angry at him, too much pride in a mere mortal was never good. He made sure to sacrifice something later to appease his patron's wrath.
