Taylor whistled to her mare, Skylar and her filly, Tempest, who were both out in an acre of pasture all by themselves. Skylar whinnied and trotted toward the gate; Tempest whinnied in a high-pitched voice and bucked, cantering after her mother.
Skylar slowed in front of the gate when she saw Taylor with Satan. She eyed him warily, and blocked Tempest from being near him.
Biting her lip with nervousness about what might happen, Taylor opened the gate and let Satan go into the pasture. Skylar stood in front of Tempest protectively as she and Satan sniffed each other. Satan pinned his ears back at Skylar, but when he did that, she copied him.
Satan noticed Tempest standing next to Skylar and lunged at her. Tempest squealed and ran from Satan faster than a lightning bolt. Skylar spun around and aimed a kick at Satan. Satan jumped out of the way just in time and stared her down. Skylar bared her teeth at him, her ears lay flat against her head.
Taylor watched it unfold with complete anxiety, but she knew that Tempest was okay: Satan hadn't even come close to biting her. She knew it was working, the way Satan was now backing up from Skylar.
Skylar darted forward and swung around, again aiming a kick at his face and neck. Satan ran from Skylar and back to fence where Taylor was.
"I thought she might teach you a lesson, boy," she said, laughing with relief that they were all alright. She clipped his halter to his lead rope and tied him up to the fence.
Taylor walked over to Skylar and gave her a treat, patting her head. Tempest hurried over and nipped Taylor playfully. "Hey, girl, you okay?" she said softly in a sing-song voice; Tempest's ears pricked. She patted the little filly, and went back to Satan.
She opened the gate and led him back to the stable.
