Taylor was still practicaly dragging Skylar across the muddy yard while her friends were pushing on the mare from behind, when she heard a faint noise like that of a frate train in the distance. "Guys, come on we've got to hurry! The tornado's heading this way now!" she shouted back to them.

Megan looked up at the sky fearfully. The noise that sounded like a train was a clear warning that it was coming closer. She watched in horror as the tornado in the distance touched the ground. She slapped on Skylar's rump lightly, wanting to get the mare to safety as quickly as possible. The others seemed to be thinking the same things. Attachments:

Gena sprinted inside with a weelbarrel or straw bedding. Her black waves of hair pulled away from her ponytail thanks to the wind and rain. On top of the bedding, a big bag of grain laid with a scoop. Next to it was a baby moniter and a pregnency tester. Taking Skyler, she led her into the stall. Quickly, she untacked her and rubbed her lightly with a currycomb. Slipping a breakaway halter, she finished bedding the stall and set the moniter inside. Dropping the grain into a bucket, she nodded to the girls. "Stay outside the stall please." She made sure that the water was full and then tested the mare. "She will be giving birth anytime now. She might not want to during the tornato. We have to stay here to keep the horses as safe as we can." She spoke loudly so that they could hear.
Molly looked around and trembled a little bit. She had never been in a tornato before!

Sara had been in the barn calming Desert. She'd heard there was a tornado warning, and her horse hated storms. After hearing heaps of shouts and whinnies, she followed all the commotion into the alone stables, where she found Cassie, Molly, Taylor and a whole bunch more people she barely even recognised. Even Gena was there! "Guys, what are you all doing out here?" she asked. "Don't you know there's a torn-" Sara stopped when she saw Taylor's mare Skylar. "Oh." She said lamely. She stood back and watched from a distance, not wanting to crowd the mare. She looked around at everyone and they all looked terrified. "Are you guys okay?" she asked quietly.

Cassie.
Cassie shivered in her soaked hoodie, snuggling into it as much as she could. She was scared. Scared of the tornado, scared for Skylar, still scared about what had happened earlier. She looked in the stall, as close to Tay as she could, wanting to give her friend support. "Hey, Sara." she said, lamely, trying to smile at her friend.
Josh.
Josh watched his sister shivering and moved closer to her. He was a bit confused at all the commotion, the mare and the girls... He sighed. He put an arm on Taylor's shoulder and said "Are you okay?"

(Guys... it isn't very hard to tell. If your people turn around, they will see a tornado coming at them... Haha)
Gena spoke, "Tornado." as she slipped the halter off of the mare and shut the window. Leaving the stall, she closed the door behind her and rushed to close both ends of the barn along with the windows. She could hear her Hanovarian, Gracie neighing in panic although her other two horses stayed quiet. "I want Taylor and Cassie to stay here but the rest of you go into the office in the conference room without windows!!"
(You guys can make a thread there)

Taylor didn't look at Josh when he put his arm on her shoulder; she was embarressed because no guy except her dad had ever been nice to her. "I'm fine," she lied quietly to him, noticing the noise of the tornado was getting slightly louder. When Gena told everyone to except Cassie and her to leave, Taylor felt even worse. Cassie was her friend, but she wanted more people to be around her. She was mainly scared that something would happen to Skylar and her foal and that they wouldn't be able to help her.

Megan couldn't help but smile to herself when Josh placed his hand on Taylor's shoulder, but when Gena told all of them but the two girls who seemed to have started all of this, Megan's smile vanished. "Do we really have to leave?" she asked, not wanting to miss the foal's birth.

Megan groaned loudly so Gena could hear her over the noise of the storm raging outside. "Fine," she said grumply. "Come on, guys," she said, waving to the the other girls and Josh. (You guys can start the thread in the Office or I'll do it

Sara tried to smile at everyone, but she was bummed that she would miss the birth too. Then again, everyone's safety was important. "Yeah, come on guys," she said, following Megan. "Skylar will be more comfortable if we aren't all crowding her." She tried to smile reassurringly at Taylor and Cassie, but to her it felt like a grimace. "It'll be okay," she whispered to them. She turned and followed Megan, beckoning to the others to follow.

Josh. Josh squeezed his sister and Taylor's shoulders, then shrugged and followed the others from the room, throwing a glance over his shoulder at the two shivering, scared girls.
Cassie. She watched as her brother left. She felt safer with him there. She huddled in closer to Tay, leaning her head on her shoulder. "G-Gena? Does she look okay?" she asked.

Cassie looked up. Looking at Tay, she said to the girl, Charlie. "Um, sorry, but this mare's in labour... and you should ask Gena if you need anything." she said it as nicely as she could, gesturing to Gena in the stable.

Taylor didn't pay too much attention to Charlie, but watched Skylar pace around in her stall. "Do you think she'll be alright?" she asked Cassie quietly, wishing the others would come back.

Gena frowned when the girl continued, "You should not be riding here if you do not have a horse set up here or taking lessons. Put your horse in the stall a few stalls down and quickly untack her. After that go straight to the office." She shook her head at Charlie before turning to the others, "She will be just fine."

Taylor nodded, knowing that she wouldn't be able to hold back her tears much longer. She bit her lower lip as Gena told Charlie to follow her into her office, feeling that the girl who had seemed nice, was going to be in serious trouble. The second Gena and Charlie were gone, Taylor let out a miserable wail, letting the hot tears fall down her face like a waterfall.

Cassie quickly comforted Taylor, wrapping her arms around her and stroking her shoulder. She felt tears well in her own eyes. They were both way out of their depth. She blatntly ignored the girl, Charlie, who didn't seem to realize that this was so serious.

Gena stepped out of the stall and over to Charlie, "She will be fine. Please leave the barn and go to the office." She took a deep breath, this girl would not listen to her.

Taylor couldn't see well, for tears were blocking all her vision, but she knew that it was Cassie hugging her. She wiped her eyes away quickly when she saw Skylar spread her hindlegs apart; a clear fluid came pouring out of her for a few seconds, then it stopped. She didn't put her tail back down. Skylar let out a soft whinny, looking straight at Taylor, her ears pricked forward.

Gena turned around to see Skyler and kept the door open, "It's coming." She whispered as not to scare the mare foaling.

Cassie watched with wide eyes as a clear fluid poured out of her. Must be her waters breaking, she thought. She took a deep breath and watched.
