Macy began to cool down Toby and gave him another pat. She was proud of his hard work.
Summer's blue eyes switched back towards Kayla, keeping up with the conversation. She was happy to be social despite her first day being on campus.

Kayla smiled and rolled her eyes at Macy and turned back to the other girls, "that's cool I have owned Marya for about a year now, he is the only horse I have ever owned but I practically grew up on a Thoroughbred racing ranch but it was also a rescue ranch for all horses and a lot of other animals too" she said with pride that she had gotten to share in helping animals heal, "my best friend T her family owns it, her dad is a famous race horse trainer, her mom has even been to the Olympics, and she breeds wolf type dogs" she said smiling "and her brother Marak has one of their rescue horses he got into the minor Olympics with his horse," she said getting a dreamy look in her eyes when she mentioned Marak, "and her twin brother Matt rides here with his mustang mare Te Amo" she said smiling, and looking around at least most of the people here were nice.
(Te Amo is said like Tay Amo witch mean I Love You in spanish)

"Oh...so T goes here too?" Summer asked. She started pulling her Blackberry out of her pocket to text her father. Although she usually never talked to him, now she actually had a good reason to. I think you should contact the school and start organizing an equestrian team for here...there isn't a team and you could be the head trainer of it or something because you used to train a lot of teams. Talk to the school about it. You could at least sponsor the team if they get their own trainer, Summer typed, pressing send. She hoped her father wouldn't be the trainer for the team; being at this school gave her a chance to be away from him. She nervously played with the silver cuff bracelet on her wrist; there was no person she was scared of the most other than her father. Macy finished cooling down her black warmblood. Toby had barely broken into a sweat despite the fact that he had been working for about an hour. "I'm leaving, noobs. The arena won't look as good without me, but whatever," she said, getting off Toby to unlock the gate and leave. She closed the gate, but didn't lock it.
"Hey, close the gate!"Summer yelled. Macy ignored her and kept walking back towards the barn, keeping the reins long in one hand with Toby walking behind her. Macy disappeared in the distance.

Kayla smiled and shook her head "no she rides over at Whispering Wolves Academy" she said smiling "and her older brother Marak rides over at Willow Springs Academy" she said smiling even though she wished he rode at her stable, she rolled her eyes in disgust at Macy not locking the gate, "jeez whats her problem?" she asked looking at the other two before turning her attiention back to Marya she sped him up to a fast canter she had sized up the jumps that Macy had highered she knew Marya could work them without a flaw, as he went around the ring jumping the course his blue black mane flowing behind him and his cherry red coat shinning as she jumped over each jump without a hitch, she felt him flex under her as he jumped again "get, get" she said smiling as he went a little faster and flew over the jumps with a problem, and then pulling him down to cool him out, "that's my pretty boy" she said smiling and patting his neck.

"Mmmm is this Marak good looking?" Tarlar asked, her blue eyes shimmering. Distance wasn't an issue for this red head. She twirled a loose strand of hair that rested on her shoulder, holding the reins in her left hand. She slouched a bit in her seat, just chilling on the huge black beast.

Summer smiled at Tarlar's comment, realizing it wasn't a bad question. Her blackberry vibrated; it was a text from her father. "Guys guess what! My father will be able to organize an equestrian team for this school! This is going to be cool! Except for the fact that my father will also be a coach for it," Summer said with a frown. But being on a team again will be worth it, Summer thought, feeling nostalgic over the fun times she had on the US youth equestrian team.
(i asked supernora if it was ok to start a team and she okayed it)

Kayla felt a slight smile tug at her lips "yeah he's hot" she said smiling her half smile, "but he has a girlfriend has had for about five months now" she said smiling her devise smile that drives Marak totally nuts over her, her eyes lit up, "but yeah he is a totally hot" she said smiling and turning back to Summer "that's awesome" she said she thought it was pretty cool have a team for the stable.
(my best friend's cousin has a TB/QH and she told me that one time her cousin was riding him and he went fast enough to pass a atv going 30 mph and that she actully got pulled out of class to get asked to join the high school equestrian team cuase of how fast her horse coudl run.)

(haha whoa! i'd be too scared to go that fast...is Marak an actual character?)
"Oh..well I guess you're happy to know him," Summer joked, "And by the way, what time are we going to go on that trail ride?" Summer was excited to take a break and escape from the world into the woods, even if it could wait for tomorrow.

(yeah I know I would prble have a haert attack if my horse ever went that fast! and yeah check my tracker I have lots of charries and so is Matt and T) Kayla smiled licking her lips and then found herself pulling the horse charm on her neck-less back and forth a habit she had when she was talking about something, she never took it off not since she was eight years old, "you bet I'm happy to know him" she said winking, "well Marya is never tired and he loves the trails so I am bassicly ready to go trail riding anytime would just have to change his tack I prefer to trail ride in western saddles and Marya prefers them as well" she said smiling and tapping his sides with her heels "Marya, Bow" she said and felt him lower to the ground and he hopped off of him "I don't normally make him do that do much but I have knee problems and it was acting up yesterday so I try not to jump on it to much" she said tilting her head to the side and tapping Marya's shoulder making him stand up.

** hmmm i cant find Maraks form... want to see his hotness in an image lol **
Tarlar smiled. "Well, we can't let it become a girlfriend of six months, now can we," she said, a devlish grin spreading upon her lips. She pat Zeph on the withers with a free hand. She followed Kaylas suit and gracefully swung off her 18 hand horse, landing in the soft ground with a small thud. She took the reins from around his neck to use as a lead rope.

"How did you train your horse to bow like that? It's cool," Summer gushed, watching Marya bow gracefully to the ground. Her high white blonde ponytail swished to the side as her head tilted down to watch the horse.

(haha it used to have a pic, but then it stopped showing up but heres a link to a pic of him, web.me.com/brendanbradley/SquattersTheSeries/RS.jpg well the acter I bassed him on anyway haha) Kayla's lit a spark "I dougt she is gonna let anyone breack them up" she said with her devise smile and turned to Summer "oh its easy alls you need is one of those things they use to train dogs the clicker training thing, and you get their fav treat and a lunge whip and you have alls you need" she said smiling "I'll show you some time, Marya knows lots of other tricks too," she said proudly.

(OMG I LOVE THAT ACTOR! isn't his name ryan sypek or something?) "Ohh cool. Maybe when there aren't any competitions coming up I'll work on it with Firefly...I just don't want him getting all confused and stressed out. I mean, that one home competition was cancelled until further notice but until then, I'd like to keep Firefly in shape and stuff. Did you enter that competition? I entered it for cross country, it's my favorite," Summer said. She felt her phone vibrating in her pocket; someone was calling her. "Excuse me, it's my father," she said, blushing and feeling rude. She walked away from the girls for two feet, not wanting them to hear her constant arguments with her father. "But why! I like Firefly," she complained into the phone, "He's good with dressage. Dad. Having another would be hard and annoying to handle! Why can't I just improve Firefly's skills in dressage? You won't need to waste your money that way. Fine. Goodbye," she said, hanging up and walking back over to Kayla and Tarlar. "Ugh. My father insists that I buy a dressage horse," she said, rolling her blue eyes.

Tarlar raised an eyebrow. "Than what is stopping you?" she asked. She would leap at any chance her parents gave her to have another horse to love. She looked at Kayla. "Who is the girlfriend?" she asked, clicking off her helmet. She took her hair out of the loose ponytail, and let the soft wavy hair fall back into place. She ran her fingers through her hair on her partline, so the strawberry blonde waves would fall into pretty layers.
She spun on her heel, and started to walk to the gate to leave. She softly 'bumped' the reins, encouraging Zephyrus to keep following her.

"True...do you guys want to come with me to buy the horse?" Summer offered. She has nice hair she noted as she followed Tarlar out of the arena. Her high white-blonde ponytail bobbed and swayed as she walked.

(yeah thats his name ) "yeah I understand that" she said smiling and waited for her to get done on the phone. smiling she looked to Summer "I would love it if I could get another horse, but I barley got Marya on a count that my mom can barley afford to pay for him, so I don't complain" she said smiling, and answering the question "no I didn't enter the comptian I have kinda gotten out of showing, but my best friend T entered some western events with her horse, and I guess some one from here entered as well a Robby Palmer" she said with a shrugg, "Marya, Heal" she said walking to the gate with him fallowing like a well trained dog, "I wouldn't mind at all my friend just got a new dressage horse Voodoo hes beautiful and such an awesome horse too" she said smilng, and then she was debating weather or not to tell Tarlar who Marak's girlfriend was.... Marak walked threw the trees today was one of Sorrow's good days so he had taken him out for a little trail ride, leaning down to pat him on the neck "good boy" he said after he kicked him into a nice fast trot as he broke into the stable area he slowed to a walk and dissmounted Sorrow and began walking to the jumping ring he was pretty sure he could find Kayla there, he remembered her saying smoething about wanting to get back into show jumping. Once he found the ring he saw Kayla with two other girls that he didn't know and figured that Kayla had just meant them. as she left the arena he walked up to her "hey babe" he called to her, and walked up to her, he had made sure Sorrow was tied up but not left unsupervised, "hey" he said again kissing her and then wrapping his arm around her turning to the other ones, Kayla was as bright as a christmas tree "hey ya babe" she answered after he kissed her and then gave a Tarlar and Summer looks that said I told you so "huh Summer Tarlar this is Marak, Marak this is Summer and that's Tarlar" she said smiling.

"True, you're right, I shouldn't complain, it's just...I feel like if I get another horse, I'd be abandoning Firefly or something. I wish I could buy you a horse!" Summer said to Marya. "Hi Marak," she added. "I think I may go to check the horse out today or something...I have a long time to kill before classes start and stuff. The horse's name is Danza Felice..it means Happy Dance in italian. So I'm going to assume this horse has very nice gaits by his name." And by his price, she thought.

Kayla smiled at Summer "don't worry I'm sure you'll still have plenty of time for Firefly" she said smiling "I still have Marya and I work with a gelding colt here at the stable and I still have time for my pretty boy" she said kissing Marya's cheek, Marak smiled "Nice to you" he said smiling "so your getting a new horse, I have two horses," Marak said smiling "that one over there Sorrow, and then a nutso paint/thoroughbred gelding that has tried to kill me on more then occasion" he said with a laugh, "huh yes how is Flame?" Kayla asked "same as the last time you asked" he said with a sigh "oh I wonder if that horse even has a mind or if he is just crazy" Kayla laughed to herself she had only seen Flame once and that hadn't went well since he tried to kick her, "I'm guessing that horse cost a pretty penny" she said with a smile, "better make sure you know a lot about him before you buy him, cause Flame was pretty expensive too, and he turned out to be a wacko" Marak said with a laugh about his crazy colt.

"Oh! Ahaha, now I get it!" Tarlar said, her pretty voice filled with realization. "YOU"RE his girlfriend! haha, thats why you didnt want me to break them up for you, cause you are already going out!" Tarlar said good naturdly. She didn't like that the girl was speaking in riddles, but she wouldn't dwell on it.
"I'm Tarlar," she said, extending a dainty pale hand, clearly expecting a handshake. She glanced over at Zephyrus, who was no longer attached to her through his reins. But she trusted him to stay put. "And thats Zephyrus, my monster dutch warmblood," she said. She looked back at Marak. "So Marak," she said, not liking the way his name tasted in her mouth, "Whats wrong with Flame? I am pretty good with the crazy ones, I would like to take a look. I can ask my trainer to take a look as well if you would like. He works mostly with wild horses, like fresh mustangs. He won some event where you pick an insanely wild mustang, train it for 2 days, and then ride it through this insane obstacle course. So basically he trained and made a wild horse bomproof in a few days, but I dont know the details," she said. She looked up thoughtfully, trying to remember the name of the event.

"Who's your trainer?" Summer asked to Tarlar, expecting her trainer to be some random person. Her mind started drifting towards what that dressage gelding would be like. I hope he's normal, she thought, but then again, my father wouldn't suggest for me to buy a crazy horse.

"Craig Cameron," Tarlar said drowsily. He was her western trainer. She was still looking for a halfway decent english trainer. She smoothed back her strawberry blonde waves. Her bright blue eyes scanned the faces of Summer, Marak, and Kayla. She pulled out cherry lipstick/chapstick from her pocket, and applied a healthy coat to her lips.

"Ohh I've met the guy at a national trainers conference thing that I went to with my dad - he's interesting. My dad hates him though," Summer said with a laugh, "Only because he's a well known western rider. My dad hates western. Too bad he doesn't know I know how to ride it," she added with a mischievous glitter in her bright blue eyes. "I even went out and bought a used western saddle myself. I don't know how he didn't notice but whatever. My dad doesn't notice half of the things I do." She rolled her eyes, thinking of how her dad didn't notice her sneaking out to parties and getting a tattoo.

Kayla smiled her half smile "sorry about the speacking in riddles thing I don't usally do that, normally I and brudely frank" she said smiling, Marak smiled "nice to meet Tarlar" he said shacking her hand and then smiling "he's a good looking horse, Sorrow is a Oldenburg gelding" he said smiling glancing over at Sorrow who seemed to have fallen asleep, and then laughing "I'm am not really sure what is with Flame, he is well nuts if he doesn't want to do something your gonna know about it, he has even manged to dump me in the dirt a few times," Marak said shacking his head, Kayla have a slight laugh "last month he almost clipped my head with his hoof" she said and letting Marak continue "Flame has issues mostly trust ones but I don't think he was trained right and on his rump he has a scar that looks like it was casued by a lunge whip, so that might explain some of his issues, anyone would think he was a freash mustang" he said with a laugh "but yeah you can take a look at him some time, just don't get hurt and blame me" he said half joking "people have looked at my moms rescue horses and gotten hurt and blamed her for it, so I am careful when it comes to people looking at my horses since both have trust issues" he explained nodding toward Sorrow he wasn't as bad anymore but he still had some issues "yeah I have haerd of those events, those are some really good trainers" he said nodding. "my mom used to attend them all the time, was in one once but then went back helping her rescues become show horses" Marak said, "so yeah I have met him once, but my dad knows him OK since my dad is a well known Race horse trainer" Marak said cheeking on Sorrow again.

** kayla wouldnt know tarlars thoughts...? ** ** hey, in between marak and kayla talking, could you put a line in between it? it is extremely difficult to read all mixed up. thanks **
Tarlar raised an eyebrow. Why the hell were these people... boasting about their horses throwing them. These people must not have a lot of knowledge on horses, if a horse is constantly bucking, you dont keep riding it and putting yourself in harms way, you do something about it. Hire a d*mn trainer for heavens sake. Whatever, she would leave the little lovers to their happily-getting-thrown games. She glanced over at Summer, wondering if she shared Tarlars mixed feelings.

(I know that, Kayla said that cause she never talks in riddles normally and she wanted her to know that in case it irritated her, and yeah sorry bout the usually I do just in a hurry today and Marak wasn't boasting about getting bucked he's just in a good mood, he does not think there is anything funny about getting bucked) Kayla smiled a tight lipped smile "I haven't seen Flame since then, makes me feel weird being around him" she said shacking her head, she was thankful for Marya her perfectly trained gelding. "yeah Flame is an odd horse, his main problem is that he can't be lunged, I am working on getting him into the round pens those bother him too" he said with a shrug. "I have a feeling that his old trainer hit him with the lunge whip and made him scard of being lunged, but he has gotten better he does kick at people anymore" he said "and the other day I took him for trail ride and he didn't buck till we got back to the stable, so he's getting better, hopfully with a little more training he will be good to bring into the ring" Marak said thinking, he was proud of the colt he owned Flame was perfect mix between the paint and thorobred. "and what I saying beofore Sorrow doesn't buck hasn't bucked in years, and he has never bucked with me, he was one of our rescue horses his owners thought they needed to train him by whipping his heels with a llunge to make him jump higher" he said with disgust.

** yeah, it just seems like that when you use my exact wording... **
"You shouldnt be riding him until he is fully trained..." Tarlar muttered. She was suddenly very grateful that Marak and Kayla were going out. If he was dating someone else, and she had to seduce him into dumping that girl for Kayla... whooooph, she would really be in for it. She sighed. "Is there a mall near here?" she burst out. She wanted to meet the guys from other stables...

(yeah sorry bout that, some times I kinda run on auto polit)
Marak smiled "huh I wasn't riding him I was riding Sorrow, Flame was being led, I was ponying him on the tral he seems to like them so I use them to help reduce his stress witch it seems to be working" he said looking back over at Sorrow "well I think I better be going, I am gonna take flame down to the creek on a lunge, he loves the water, hopping doing theses things with him will make him more trusting" he said walking over and mounting Sorrow and heading back down the trail "see ya later Kayla and it was nice to you all" he said waving before heading back down the trail.
Kayla smiled "yeah see ya later," she said waving to Marak and then grinning wide at Tarlar "yeah of course there's a mall, newport mall I think" she said smiling and walking Marya to the barn, "that's cool that you know that trainer, I only know one person really good trainer who has shown in everything and I mean everything both western and english riding" she said to Tarlar "so do you ride western?" she asked Tarlar hopping to make good conversian.

"Yeah, but Zephyrus is more for jumping," Tarlar said. "Can we go to the mall? Like today? Like now?" she asked excitedly. She looked over to Summer, to see if she was up for some shopping too. Tarlar wanted nothing more than a smoothie right now... Maybe some topioca...

Kayla laughed "yeah Marya still thinks he's a hot shot barrel racer, I retired him from barrel racing though it was way to fast for me" she said shacking her head "yeah its cool with me, I love shopping" she said agreeing with Tarlar she could really use a good day out, "to tell you the truth I have been really stressed out latley, and getting away sounds totally awesome" she said smiling and leading Marya into his stall and untacked him, brushed him out real fast and picked out his hooves "that's my boy Marya" she said leaving the stall and waiting for the others.
