Jack's playful mood faded as he looked up at the stallion emerging from the portal. Although he did not understand how or why his wings reacted in the way that they did, he trusted his instincts. If there was trouble on the horizon, he could not afford to take it lightly - especially since he was currently unable to use his abilities effectively.
The stallion looked around until it locked eyes with Jack, and faint recognition seemed to flash through its eyes.
"Are you the being known as 'the captain' associated with the one who identifies himself as 'Bob'?" the steed asked, looking down at Jack.
Jack frowned. He knew Bob was a trouble magnet, but for some reason, he'd never caused more trouble than the group could handle. Of course, that could be just a complete coincidence.
Jack flew a little higher till he was eye level with the steed and looked him in the eyes.
