Samurai Equine

Samurai nods, impressed at her story. However, upon hearing her ask that question, a spark shines in Samurai's eyes and he smirks. He runs ahead just a little bit so that he can stand upright and strike a fighting pose. "The official warrior authorized by divine providence! The fire soldier! Samurai Equine is here!' Samurai makes a very flashy introduction! So flashy, he almost trips on some mud, and has to go back to running on all four hooves. "Well, it works better when I'm not running in the rain." Samurai explains with an awkward nod. Moushley somehow pulls out a package of candy and gives it to Dynamo. Each candy piece is shaped like something a gamer would enjoy. As she makes herself comfortable, she points at the race and excitedly squeaks about it, as if trying to making racing commentary on it. Samurai stops when he comes to the river bank, hesitating. He notices what Dusk is doing and whistles. "Way to go! Clearly no one should underestimate you." After that, Samurai considers the rope she left. He then looks back at his flame-lit hooves. "...Can't use that. It would snap the rope and make it unavailable for other racers. Water is my ultimate weakness. Is this really how the race ends for me?" Samurai thinks to himself while considering all options. "Ah!! Hang on, Moonlight! I'll save you!" Without second thought, Samurai deactivates all his magic and leaps into the water. He swims over and grabs onto him, pulling him out of danger. "Hang on tight! And let's hope my years of combat training pay off." Samurai tells him as he relies only on his physical strength, swimming to the opposite bank on the other side of the river for all he's got.

Samurai tilts his head at @PrincessPriscillaPT Priscilla's answer. "You don't know? Well maybe this race will help you find out. Good luck!" Samurai slows down for only a second, but it's enough to see @liujiadong Sunshine. He smiles. "You know, Pink and Red are very similar colors." Occasionally, Samurai slams his body against a few trees to bring the leaves down. He occasionally is tempted to use his hooves, but he quickly remembers the light amount of magic fire he has at the tips of his hooves. Better to avoid starting any fires today, even if the the rain might put it out. He looks over at @Dusk Haven Dusk. "What about you? Are you royalty also?"

Samurai sees @Wizard Titanium and @Nitobit Midnight sharing a hug and getting along. He tries to run up closer to them, but nearly slips because he almost loses focus on his magic. "Okay, maybe hugs some other times..." Instead, he waves at @PrincessPriscillaPT Priscilla. "Excuse me, I don't mean to be rude for asking, but are you royalty?"

As Samurai looks for trees to knock down and clear of leaves, he can't help but notice that @PrincessPriscillaPT Priscilla and @Dusk Haven Dusk are both alicorns. "Hmm... Do we have royalty in this race?" Samurai asks himself. He looks over at @liujiadong Sunshine and nods encouragingly. "I guess the rain doesn't bother you anyways. For me, it hurts, but I'm not letting it stop me!"
