Abby grasped her horses black leather reins. Leading Serenity over to then entrance of the fourth arena. She has made sure to adjust all the jumps to a suitable height before tacking up her horse, a comfortable 130 cm. She flicked the reins over Serenity's head, she let out a small whinny, followed by a friendly sigh. With complete trust of her horse, Abby let go of the reins, so to put on her helmet. Serenity didn't flinch, let alone gallop away. Within a few seconds, Abby was holding the reins again, and was mounting her horse.
Taking a firm hold of the reins, she gave her horse a gentle kick, then another, then another. She was now at a steady gallop. She let her horse round the arena once before lining up for the jump course. She gave her horse a slight nudge, to get a slight bit more speady. She stood up slightly in her saddle, leaning forwards, then back at the appropriate time. She gave her horse a congratulative pat on her neck.[/url]

The weather wasn't bad, the cool summer evening was a nice time for her to get away. She was grateful that Ana was being taken for a couple hours, giving her time to finish up the other lessons and ride her three horses that had to be worked. Sitting up on the big bay gelding, she reached down and patted the horses neck affectionately. Time Keeper. She had the big gelding since she had been sixteen, and she was just getting him back going after two years of sitting in a field as he recovered from the tragic accident at Black Hills Equestrian Centre, which he had been lucky to live from.
Every day she was a step closer to having the same horse he had been before.
Walking him out on a long rein in the flat arena, she looked over and noticed a young girl climbing on to a dainty black mare. Pulling TK up to a halt, resting a hand on her hip she studied the two as she suddenly took off to the first fence she had set up. Frowning, Grace watched as the mare sped up and cleared the fence. Gathering her reins, she shook her head and pushed TK in to a walk over in to the other arena. Halting out of the girls way, she called out: “Honey. You need to be warming up your horse before you even consider jumping that big.”

(I did mention that she toke him for a round around the arena before starting. -blushes-)
Abby blushed, and pulled the reins, slowing her horse and turning it towards the other teen. She had taken Serenity round the arena before starting on the jumps. Even then her horse was used to jumping higher, so this wasn't to much of an ask. "I did take her round, you must have missed it!" She said kindly in her heavily accented voice. She gave a smile. She hoped the other girl didn't perceive her as being rude. "I'm Abby by the way, and this is Serenity," she introduced her self, and once she was close enough, she lent down and wrapped her arms around her horses neck.

It took her a half of second to figure out the girls thick accent, but she sat tall and easily in her well worn saddle. Double reins were held in one hand, the other resting on the pommel of her saddle. “Ah. I must have,” she said thoughtfully, “but you still should warm her up more, you don't want to risk her hurting herself.” Grace had seen plenty of injuries over the years from horses being overworked and not doing enough flat work to be conditioned for the jumping. She hadn't seen her around, patting TK's neck as he strained forward to try and get closer to the horse, she lifted her hand and backed him up a couple of steps. “Pleased to meet you, Abby. I'm the farm owner and main trainer, Grace Moselle.” Smiling slightly as she gave her horse a hug, she remembered being that young and that being TK for her. “And this is Time Keeper, but I call him TK for short.”

Say oh, got this feeling you can't fight,
Like the cities on fire tonight,
This could really be a good life,
a good, good life...

Abby Slowther x Serenity [/color][/font][/i][/center] Abby tightened the reins, turning her horse, and giving it a small nudge to start her at a calm walk. "Cute!" Abby gave a curt nod, and leaned over slightly to give TK a pat on the neck. "Oh and thanks, by the way. I'll keep that in mind!" She looked down, at her own horse, and wrapped her arms around her neck briefly. She watched Serenity, who seemed to be rather interested in this new horse. "I know we barely know each other, but I was wondering if you wanted to go for a short hack/treck?" Abby asked enthusiastically. [/center][/color] |

Grace watched her curiously as she stepped forward and patted TK. She was brave to walk up to a horse she didn't know well, but being as calm as he was, the gelding just looked over at the mare and tried to smell her. Pulling his head up, she studied the girl as she suggested going out for a hack. Pulling her cell phone out of her breeches pocket, she checked the time before setting it back.
“Sure, as long as it's short. I have to be home in forty five minutes or I'll have a very unimpressed baby sitter on my hands...”
Smiling slightly, she could imagine that Danielle would be less than impressed if she left an unhappy Ana in her hands for any time longer. It took Grace a lot of convincing just to get her to watch her this once. Closing her leg and walking him in a small circle, she began out towards the gate. “Do you know the trails at all?” She asked, looking over her shoulder, “they're truly lovely.”
