A Stroll through the City(Open)

[ShadowWalking18]

Down the streets of Manehatten, walked what could only be described as beauty incarnate. At least that was what went through the griffons mind. A sleek body, with elegant curving form clad in a Coltand Mouret long dress of white that clung to her form perfectly, Anastasia Ironclaw knew she looked good. Her sleek white feathers were well preened and straight, and her brown patches of her feathers helped blend her natural coloring with her dress.

 

She also wore silver pseudofeathers mixed into her real ones to give her a sparkle in the sun, though she longed for the days when she would stop feeling the itch of these things. They would sadly interfere with her flying, but she didn't feel she would have to fly anywhere any time soon today.

Besides, the cloudless sky and the bright shining sun made this a perfect day for a walk, even if it was in a city. Anastasia wasn't a fan of big cities, but she found that pony cities in Equestria had a more cleaner air then Talonopolis.

 

And, she thought as she cast a wink and glance to a trio of stallions, who stopped in their tracks in awe, the city had quiet a wide range of....selections.

 

And the shops were even better.

 

But even a lady of her breeding need a rest every so often, and the sight of a delightful little café made Anastasia walk over to take a seat. She winked and flirted a bit with the waiter before perusing their selections. The day was well enough, But Anastasia felt it could be better, that something was missing. She sighed as she tried to figure out what it could be.

Time to bring in a character never played before

 

 

In the safety of a nearby tree, a young griffon that was part red-tailed hawk and part tiger laid lazily on a branch, looking down at the crowds passing below. The city was her jungle to explore, but every now and then Gale Force just wanted to relax. Looking down with a yawn, she noticed a rather striking looking pure white griffon. Part of her was apathetic to her beauty, taking an "Oh that's nice" stance. But there was part of her that, although she hated to admit, felt jealous, like she wanted to be that pretty griffon that drew attention from all around her. Her parents tried to make her a proper griffoness, but surely she could be herself and beautiful at the same time, right? Anything but having to learn ballet or paint her talons or worse wear dresses! 

 

As she inched forward on the branch to watch the striking griffon sit at the cafe, she couldn't help but notice that many male ponies were attracted to her simply with a turn of the white griffon's head or a wink. Silly colts, Gale thought shaking her head, when suddenly she heard a loud cracking sound. Before she could react, the branch she lay on snapped under her, causing Gale to tumble through the branches and onto the sidewalk below with bits of branched. 

 

"Ouch, ugh! Stupid tree!" she said shaking her talon at the tree above her, "All I wanted to do was rest!"

 

Unbeknownst to her as she ranted against the tree, she was right next to the cafe where the mysterious white griffon was.
