A 4x4 grey truck that had a lift on it pulled up with a horse trailer behind it. The horse trailer was a sliver color and in green along the side said" Fiddler's Shire Collections" As Reed came from a shire neighbor where all of the neighborhood had at least four shires for show and three for breeding. The Fiddler family is known all around England for their purebred shires. As he parked and opened the car door a whinny could be heard from the trailer "Calm down Justice" he said as he rubbed her pole trying to soothe her. It always worked and the just patted Ebony and Henna as he made his way to the door. " Hello" he said gingerly not sure if he should just walk in. So he walked back out to his truck and grabbed two water bottle and poured a bit into his hand. Justice just nuzzled his hand as she drank some of it off of his hand. As did Henna and Ebony, Reed just emtiped the rest of the two bottles into their water buckets. He then grabbed a thick leather lead rope that had a name engraved into it. "Ebony's Colossal" was what was engraved in green on the leather. Reed then opened the back and stepped in and clipped it to the stallion's leather halter that also had his name in green along the side.
Reed clipped it on to his halter and lead the stallion that stood at 18.2 hhs from the withers. He tied the stallion to the side of the trailer as he went to the back of the truck and grabbed a tack box. He grabbed a curry comb and started to brush the mighty horse down. In the back of the truck sat about four boxs and a suitcase plus two other tack boxes. In one of the four boxes was full of blue ribbons and the bows and some trophys that Henna and Ebony won plus Justice had won during their shows.
Reed just finished grooming the stallion down then he just started to rub the horses pole." This is our new home now and it will be for a while" he said quiet yet soothingly to the stallion as Ebony looked from side to side at the surrounding area. He could catch the scent of other horses but he payed that no mind. Henna and Justice stayed in the trailer and looked the best that they could at their new home. All of the sudden Ebony threw his head up and Reed just gripped the lead rope tighter as he started to rub the stallions shoulder. "Calm down whats the matter with you" he said softly to Ebony as the big horse brought his head down once more.
The shire just pushed his head into Reeds black shirt as he was also wearing a grey unzipped sweatshirt. Reed just scratched behind the massive horse's thorns while his black crown rested on Reeds chest. Ebony's thorns flicked back and forth as he showed that he was relaxed by shifting his weight from one hoof to the other. Now as he stopped he just snorted, but Reed just ignored his snort. Reed also wore blue jeans and a pair of brown boots. Reed tossed his head to the side throwing some of his bangs out of his eyes to better reveal his blue eyes. Reed just waited paiently outside with his horses, which is just how he likes it, for a staff member to return to the office.

<Im not staff mamber, but I was hoping I could reply>
Laken grabbed two lead ropes, one bright blue, the other pink. Walking swiftly too twow of her horses stalls, she let her self in one of the stalls. THe pony waiting patiently inside was a 13 hh (when she wasn slouching) shetland pony, dark chestnut with a flaxen main and tail. Rubbin hte pony effectionatly on the forehead, then giving the pony a kiss on the nose, she slipped the small halter over the ponies head. Clipping hte lead rope on, she lead the pony out of the stall. Clipping one cross tie to her halter, Laken entered the other horses stall, an impressive 16 hh thoroughbred bay gelding, named Just a Dream, who was Lakens show horse, and was an impressive jumper to go with his superior conformation. As Laken sliped the blue haler over his head, then clipped the blue lead rope on, she clucked to his, unclipped Sugar, the shetland, and continued on her way. The ltittle shetland's pink lead was held in Laken's right hand, and the thoroughbred in her left hand. As they emerged into the entreance of Whispering Creek, on there way to the paddocks, Just a Dream stopped, flung his head up into the sky, and took a better smell of the air. HE could smell other horses and sure enough there they were.
Laken clucked for her horse to keep walking, and when he refused flicked the lead rope at his flank, so when he kept walking swiftly, Sugar almost trotting to keep up, Laken directed her course to the guy and his horse. Stopping a few yards away so her horse didnt cause anytrouble, she said "Hi, Im Laken, how could I help you?"

Reed just stopped rubbing Ebony's pole and lightly pushed the massive horses crest off of his chest. Ebony just snorted and straightned up to show his true size. Reed just sighed as he turned to face the girl. "'ello Miss Laken I am Reed and this here is Ebony and then Henna and Justice are the two in the trailier." Reeds british accent was easily reconized by basically anyone.
Henna and Justice just poked their crests out of the trailier looking at the girl and two new horses. Ebony just pawed at the ground." I was just waiting for someone who works here so I could feel out the papers and find out what stall I am to keep my three equines in" he said as he gripped the side of the leather halter and pulled down and wispered something really low into the big stallions ears. Ebony just snorted and turned and started to sniff the ground trying to edge closer to the horses with no luck though. Reed just patted the stallions houlder and walked towards Laken leaving bony tied to the side of the trailier.
"Um are they friendly" he asked warily as he stopped a few feet out of both horses reach. He then walked to the side of the throughbred." Wow this brute is very nicely built" Reed said admiringly. "What disclipine is he trained in?" Reed asked as he studied the brutes features. Though he still keapt a safe distance.

As Reed intorduced his horses, Laken imeediatly picked up on his english accent. She herself didnt have one, seeing as she was born in California and never really adabted to the English accent. Smling at the horses names, she raised her eyebrowx at Ebony's height. she even said out loud "Hes a big horse." She smiled as the two other horses poked there head out of the trialer. Smiling at them, she looked back at Reed. She herself was only a stable hand here, with no clue what so ever about the offical crap, but she knew where the office was. Smiling, she said "Im onl.y a stable hand, but you could check the office. I guess you could justy pick random stalls for your horses. Thats what I did." . Giving Sugar a rub on the neck when the pony nugged her side, she smiled at the pony and said " They are both extremely friendly." As Reed complemented Just a Dream's conformation she said "Thanks, thats Just a Dream, hes a thoroughbred gelding, and the sweatest horse ever." Ass she signals to her shetland who whickered to the horses in the trial, she siad "and this bucket of sweetness is Sugar. She is the sweetest thing in the world." . She was overly attatched to Sugar. Huigging her pony, she said "Feel free to pet him."

Reed just placed his hand out for Just a dream to sniff then stroked his muzzle. " So your a stablehand uh" Reed said as he took his hand away from Just a Dream." I am a new teacher possibly if any of the staff members return" He said" Whats his dicipline?" Reed asked once more as he looked at the shetland. "Wow shes pretty tall to be shetland" he said more to himself. "What block of stalls are they being held at?" and as he asked two heads popped out of the drivers side of an open.
A border collie and Pharaoh hound looked out the window towards the two people. Lucky just leapt out the window and sat by Reeds feet while Casper stayed in the car with his head poking out. "Oh this is Lucky" Reed said as he patted Lucky's head. "And that is Casper over there in the car" Reed gestured to the dusty gold dog in the car. "Do you have any pets?" Reed asked.(Sorry that this is so short)

<no problem>
Laken smiled when JD sniffed his hand and enjoyed the scrathing of the muzzle. Laken nodded when he told her about being a teacher. "Well, we are mostly english, ut we do do western. Hes a really good jumper, with alot of natrual talent, so we specialize in shw jumping and cross country. For now unofficaly, they are being held in the North stable block. And yeah Sugar is kind of tall for a shetland, but shs only just makes thirteen hands high when she isnt slouching." Looking over at the shetland, Laken watched as the poy walked toward Reed and extended her muzzle to his pockets sniffing for treats. "You silly pony, your ofly nosey.' Laughing at her ponie curiousity, she watched the dog come rnning over, and Just a Dream shy away. He was only beig a pain and wasnt really afriad of the dog, so all Laken did was watch him spook, and stay cler of his dancing hooves. "Easy boy, you are a pain. I knw you not realy afriad o those dogs, so dont even try it." As the dog aroached Reed and sat at his feet, JD stuck his muzzle out and sniffed at the dog, showin his real feelings of curiousity and not fright. Laken smiled and crooned to the dog. "Hi lucky. Hi Casper.' Laken looked around her horse to the oter dog sticking out of the truck. "Yeah acually, I have a german shepard dog who is best friends with al of my hroses."

Reed just smiled and patted the ponies nape. He just watched the throughbred dance around and JD come over to investigate. Lucky just extened his muzzle and sniffed the new horse. Lucky then slowly let his tail wag but then stopped as he looked up to Reed. "I know but we aren't going yet I have to wait until I get all the paper work" Reed said as he patted the border collies head.
"So are my dogs" Reed replied to Laken about he last statement. "Do you work here or" Reed cut off not sure if he should say student or client. Reed just scratched the back of his head while Ebony just snorted and stomped one great big dagger to the ground."Calm down" Reed said to the big brute. The two mares just stood silent in the trailier watching the throughbred and shetland pony.
