The 15 hand bay Morgan mare walked around in her pen. It was small and she scented the air. Great.She thought. Two stallions were next to her pen. She sighed as one of them flirted with her. She finally had enough and snapped at him. Saying that she wasn't one to snap he had defiantly annoyed her. She ate some of her hay that the guy had put in her pen and drank some water. The bay mare's name is Jewel. Outside her pen hung a sign that read:
Jewel
Mare
4
Morgan
15Hh
She walked around some more and let out a nicker. Of course one of the stallions answered it and she walked away ignoring him. She hated being in this pen. She wanted to go gallop or canter. She hadn't stretched her legs since she came here.

Joy & DIABLO
At the moment, the curvacious figure of a woman came along the rows of pens. She was talking to a Ranch owner at the moment as well, to see if she could board her massive bulk of a stallion there in exchange for work. Joy really had no motive for being here, she was just awaiting an answer and became bored sitting around.
AS she walked her eyes soon settled upon a bay mare. She was pretty even from this distance. She foudn it quite odd how all of a sudden the wild horses were not just mustangs. They were pretty breeds too, like andalusians and such.. even Diablo was somewhat feral. She shook her head slightly and walked up to the pen. It was smaller than need be, and she frowned at it. She looked at teh sign; Jewel.. Joy smiled and leaned against the bars. She picked out a peppermint from her pocket and unwrapped one for her adn the mare. She popped on into her mouth and held the other one out for the mare to take. "Well Jewel, your name certainly does fit you." Joy said calmly, looking around for who ever she would need to bargain with to get the mare.
To no avail, she turned her attention back to Jewel and watched her as the two stallions in the other pens seemed to be annoying her. Joy could only laugh.. she couldn't wait to see how Jewel would react to Diablo, because she was sure that he would would more than likely give her no attention less she came near her.

Jewel perked up her auds. She saw a women as she talked to her. She heard the crackle of a wrapper and trotted up to the gate waiting to get a treat. She was delighted to see a peppermint. She loved peppermints. She took it gently from the women's hands and nickered softly as if saying 'thank you.' The bay Morgan noticed that the guy was watching them as he walked up. "She's 100 but I'll be willing to bargain." He said to her. She turned her head and saw the stallions mocking her. She snorted at them mad. She wasn't one you wanted to get on her bad side. The mare sensed that the women was nice. She hoped she would take her home. She didn't see that many people here and if so they were looking at Thoroughbred's or Quarter Horses.

Joy & DIABLO
As the mare took the mint from her brown hands she gently rubbed the mares muzzle. So this one wasn't wild.. or she was just sweetheart. Either way Joy was planning on taking her home. Just as she was about to go look again a man came up and nearly startled her with his voice. Joy sighed and laughed shyly, before looking at the man. "I don't have much on me, but I can give you 50 and the promise of a good home." Joy smiled, and reached in her pockets to grab the 50 dollars. She was only 17 after all and this was the majority of the money she had. She stood there humbly, as she was not trying to deceive the man nor cheat him out of his money. "I swear on my life I will give her only the best possible." Joy said. She would do the best she could for this mare as she does the best she can for Diablo. She held out her right hand to the man, a bright smile on her face. she was sure he wouldn't say no.. after all how can you say no to such an innocent and kind face?

The man sighed. "Done." He said as he accepted the money. He opened her gate and waited for the mare to come up to him. Jewel looked up as the guy that was talking to the nice lady who gave her the pepper int entered her small pen. She turned her head and drank a couple more sips of the water. He would have to come to her. The man sighed and walked towards the mare. Jewel raised her head when they man got close to her. She lowered it so it would be easier for him to put on her halter. He buckled it and took out a lead line. Jewel waited for him to put it on. Finally! I'm getting out of here! She thought brimming with happiness. The man attached her lead rope and lead her up to the gate. He lead her out of the gate and handed the lead rope to the lady standing by her pen. The man shut the gate. Jewel looked annoyed as the two stallions nickered to her flirting with her and then bickering with each other about her. She sighed. Oh well. She was getting out of here so no more fo them. Jewel could handle a stallion but two. Oh no there were either going to be injuries or well they would out how sharp her tongue was.

Joy & DIABLO
Joy was almost brimming with happiness. She took hold of the lead rope and once again patted the mares muzzle. She thanked the man and led the mare out of the auction house. Once they were outside, she walked around to the side of the building where there was grass, and where Diablo stood. His mighty skull was held high, his broad chest puffed out as he caught sight of Joy. HE gave her a sweet nicker before prancing up to her, his huge skull lowered to her chest. Joy laughed at his childish antics. She was surprised he hadn't noticed Jewel. Joy pushed DIablo's nose away from her chest and scratched JEwels cheek. "Diablo, this is Jewel.. I just got her and you are going to teach her to stay near us for now." Diablo snorted then, his fine harks fallign into his jet black tassles as they streamed from his nape like a waterfall. The black stallion was not happy, but he did not dare attack Joy's new companion. He knew thats what she was, because Joy didn't even see Diablo as a pet. He was her friend.
Diablo stomped his large hoof as Joy lengthened the lead rope so she could keep Jewel a safe distance from the 17hh stud for a moment. She mounted quickly, and gathered up Diablo's reins. She moved diablo forward toward Jewel, and ruffles the mare's mane behind her ear. "Well, we better get going to Evergreen, let the owner know she has two new guests." Joy smiled and although she was happy Diablo was fuming. HE was not a sociable stallion and he did not know this young mare. HE kept his cold gaze on her as they walked, the black hellion speaking just a simple sentence; "should you even think of hurting Joy, I hope you like the feeling of death." His vocals were hoarse and cold as he then snorted at her. Though Joy could never understand the language of horses he would do his best to protect her from everything as she protected him.
Diablo's words are in maroon

Jewel followed Joy out of the auction house. They turned a corner into a grass area. There stood a large 17Hh Fresian stallion. "Hello." She nickered to the large stallion. Ah so his name was Diabolo. She watched as Joy mounted Diabolo and scratched the mare's mane. The bay Morgan mare followed them. She watched as Diabolo turned his head around and stared her in the eye. She stared back at him. He let a snort escape and he said"should you even think of hurting Joy, I hope you like the feeling of death." She answered him back"Now why would I do that? She just got me away from that place." She said back to the Fresian stallion.She wondered what stable they were going to. The bay Morgan wished they would go a bit faster. She wanted to canter but instead she just stayed behind Joy and Diabolo. She didn't want to give them any reason to hate her. Especially seeing as Diabolo was already not very sociable and the first words he said to her was a warning.

Joy & DIABLO
Diablo snorted rudely at the mares words. HE didn't trust anyone or anything near Joy. But he had good reason too, he was a battered and scarred brute and Joy was the only person to ever trust him and love him. The time he spent in the wild didn't help either. He had a mare that followed him, that looked almost liek Jewel. They had a child but soon after another wild stallion had shown up and Challenged him, his mare and son left. Diablo would never forgive the mare for taking his son away from him..
Diablo shook his thick skull violently, and almost shook Joy out of the saddle. She grasped his mane and leaned forward. Diablo's long legs moved faster into a canter first. Knowing Joy would be upset if he left behind Jewel. Diablo gradually sped up though, not caring if the small mare could keep up with him. Within minuets The trio came to Evergreen. Joy had yet to get an anwser but she was sure the woman couldn't turn her down. They came to an open field along side on of the stables. Joy had made sure this spot was empty of horses and people. Joy dismounted then, and untacked Diablo. She sat his saddle and bridle on a stump that was near the corner. She then tied the other end of Jewels lead rope to her halter. making makeshift reins. She patted Jewel before going to Diablo, and strokign his muzzle. "Don't hurt her, and be nice." She playfully tapped him on the shoulder, "I'll be back soon you two, don't wander far." Joy said, although the mare probably had no clue what she was saying Diablo had grown accustomed to the sound of her voice and associated the Sounds with her actions, and knew what it ment. Diablo reared slightly and stomped the ground as she left their sight.
Diablo watched for a moment, then turned to the mare, his playful air all but diminished. HE frowned slightly at Jewel. "She is trusting you not to run off. Mostly because I am here too." His deep vocals were harsh, and intimidating. HE walked past Jewel towards the open expanse. He looked at her from the corner of his eye, "you can stay here, or follow me, we'll come back when Joy calls us." HE snorted then, and moved off at a steady trot, his scarred hide ripling with muscule as his motions were beatiful and effortless. HE kept the pace slow and although he cared nto for this mare, while out in the open he would keep an eye out for anything that might try and harm her.

Jewel noted that they had come to a stop. She watched Joy get off and tie her lead rope to her halter making a make-shift bridle. She watched as Joy walked off. Diabolo didn't seem phased by it and neither was she. Diabolo turned to her and said "She is trusting you not to run off. Mostly because I am here too." Yeah like she'd run off. She wasn't one to do that. She couldn't see why he didn't trust her. Like she'd hurt her or run off. His voice was deep and intimidating. She wasn't intimidated by it though. He spoke again saying "you can stay here, or follow me, we'll come back when Joy calls us." She again wondered why he didn't trust her. She figured he just didn't trust easily or that was just how he was. Diabolo trotted off and the bay fae noticed that he kept his trot slow paced. She figured that he thought she couldn't trot faster then him. Shows him. Jewel had been trained in Saddle seat. Saddle seat was when at the trot and the canter they were move fast paced then hunt seat plus the rider used two reins instead of one. Jewel easily had a fast trot. She trotted after him at a fast paced trot. She lowered her head and took a couple bites of grass. It felt good to stretch her legs after being cooped up in that pen for so long.

Large bodice slowed with her as she lowered her head. Wavy tendrils falling to frame his face as he let out a snort. Dark eyes roaming about as he looked over the landscape. HE then turned his eyes back to jewel, and stepped from her. "Have you ever been in the wild?" Diablo asked, nonchalantly. His own head dipping to the grass for a moment, nibling on a small handful. He paitently waited for Jewels response as his mind wandered. Something seemed off since he had arrived here.. He silently wondered if Sonata had found him again. Cautiously his eyes scanned the area again, stopping at teh tree line that wasn't far off. IT was as if he could sense that his brother had been there watching him from the dark. It was an annoying thought, but Diablo wouldn't midn to see his brother again after all these years. |

Jewel looked up from grazing when Diablo had asked if she had ever been in the wild. "No no. Have you?" She said and asked at the same time. She held back a small laugh. How had he thought that she had been in the wild. It was well absurd. Did she look like she had ever been in the wild. She had been born in a barn and human raised all her life. Of course when she worked on western her jog wasn't as slow as the jogs of a quarter horse but it was almost as slow as theirs. She normally got first in western, saddle seta and huntseat but she had gotten a couple seconds in western and huntseat. However most of that was her rider's fault by posting on the wrong diagonal or giving the wrong signal to her.

Diablo frowned at the young mare, catching that look of amusement on her face. Diablo held back the urge to snap at her. Diablo didn't like young horses just as much as he disliked humans other than Joy. They were always so pompous, and smart-Alec like. Diablo's fine skull gave a subtle nod."I lived in the wild for 5 years, until Joy found me." His hoarse vocals scratched and he looked down at her then, "Do I look like Ive been in the wild." Diablo said matter of factly, and in a demeaning tone. HEavy irons shifted the grass as he tossed his skull hard. He let out a loud whinny, looking in the direction Joy had left. when he didn't get a responding whistle, Diablo sighed.
He moved off at a steady walk, "Lets go." Diablo didn't turn back to face her, but he moved faster then. His long limbs carrying him into a faster gait. His dark eyes were kept locked on the surroundings. He was using this as an exscuse to actually see if Sonata was somewhere near.. Diablo was sure that he smelled his damned brother somewhere.. and he would figure out where. Diablo let out a harsh call to Jewel, letting her know he wanted her close to his flank. These woods were unfamiliar and he knew Joy would be angry if he let anything happen to the young flika. |

"Ok ok. No need to snap." She muttered. He just walked off. Jewel sighed and followed him into unfamilar woods. There were tree's all around and it was very coool. Especially on a hot day like today. Jewel spotted a stream and walked towards it. She lowered her head and began to drink a couple sips of water. She heard a harsh winny. Jeez. Why is he so harsh with me. She thought. It's not like she did anything wrong. She saw his black pelt trotting away from the stream. She quickly cantered to catch up with him. The young fae's legs not as long as his but she still do a fast canter. The fae loved to canter and gallop. When the judge called canter in the ring Jewel never wanted to stop when they called trot or walk or sometimes stop.
