Ty led the bay andalusian mare out of her stall and easily cross tied her. He began grooming her until her coat shined as eh hummed to himself. He walked into the tack room and grabbed Sonya's saddle and walked back up easily tacking her. He led her out and easily mounted. He made his way to the outdoor jumper ring where many high jumps stood. None under 5 foot. He began warming his mare up easily. He then pointed her to a high oxer about 5 foot high and Sonya easily picked up a fluint canter and sailed over the jump effortlessly. For the last year Ty had been training Sonya, in order to go to the Olympics he came so close to three years ago. Sonya has now been able to tackle 6 foot 6 and is coming close to 7 foot exact. Ty kept working her flying over verticals, cross rails, oxers. He then started picking up his last years Olympic routine. Sonya began hesitating because of the changes but Ty whispered the familiar words to her. "Usted es un gran campeón. Cuándo usted corrió el suelo sacudió. El cielo abrió y meros mortales despidieron. Despidió la manera a la victoria. Dónde usted me encontrará en el círculo de ganador. Dónde yo colocaré una manta de flores en su espalda." with encoragement by her side the mare flew over many jumps easily.
OOC: You are a great champion. When you ran the ground shook. The sky opened and mere mortals parted. Parted the way to victory. Where you will meet me in the winner's circle. Where I will lay a blanket of flowers on your back.
- Dreamer

Kari was walking past the outdoor ring and noticed someone in there. She glanced over and saw some pretty high jumps. She had work to do so she promised herself to only stay for a minute or so. She put her arms on the railing and her chin on them. She watched as the rider jumped over the jumps with amazing grace. "wow" was the only word that came to mind. Then another thought struck her. 'They look just like me and storm! The determination on his face and the spring in his horses' step.' Finally Kari got a good look at the guy and saw it was TY!!!! "OMG!" She wanted to just run in there and hug him but that would be childish, not to mention stupid! So insted she just continued watching, thinking of her and storm, doing the exact same thing.

Ty leaned low and headed again towards another fence and Sonya took it easily. He turned to a fence about 6 8. a bit high but the ones in the olympics were 7. He leaned low and repeated the words and Sonya took off towards it.. She sailed over it and landed only picking up the long lead. Ty slowed her and pat her. "It's a start" he mumbled. He looked up and saw a person watching. He noticed it was Kari and he grinned. "HI KARI!" he said as he was joined by Sonya's nicker.

Kari put on the helmet and grabbed the reigns. She mounted gracefuly and got her seat. She looked down at Ty. "Ok here goes." She said. She first walked Sonya around the ring then trotted her the opposite way. She cantered a bit then got ready for the jumps. Kari could tell this horse was trained amazingly. She went for the first jump witch was 4 foot exactly. They popped over taht one no problem. Kari then went for the next one witch was 5 foot. The cantered gracefull toward it like they did it a million times and in no time at all were over it. Kari trotted up to Ty. "Wow she is amazing!! Do you mind if i take her over the 6 8 and help her with her leads?"

Ty shrugged. "go ahead but if she gets uneasy just say she is a great champion, when she ran the ground shook, the sky opened and mere mortals parted, parted the way to victory. where she will meet me in the winners circle, where i'll put a blanket of flowers on her back. it's like her pep talk or something" he said with a smile. "if it's to hard just tell her she's a great champion" he said smiliing.

Kari smiled. "OK got it!" She said happily. Kari cantered Sonya around once and then headed for the jump. Kari could feel the slightest hesitation in her step and so she wispered "you are a great champion, when you run the ground shook, the sky opened and mere mortals parted, parted the way to victory. where you will meet me in the winners circle, where i'll put a blanket of flowers on your back." Kari could feel Sonya calm down immediatly. She smiled. They came closer, closer, closer until finally the were in the air. Kari made the slightest pull on the reigns to the left. As the landed Kari did it again and she immediatly picked up the right lead. Kari was smiling ear to ear. She trotted up to Ty. "Wow she is simply amazing!" Kari hopped off and took off the helmet. She handed it to Ty. "Thank you so much for letting me ride her! If you want her to be on the right lead after the jump all you have to do is make the slightest pull on her reigns in the air and as soon as you hit the ground. In this case it would be to the left because you want her to pick up the right lead." Kari handed the reigns to Ty. "Thanks again for letting me ride her, she is very well trained and i love the pep talk, its adorable."

Kari blushed and smiled at the same time(i kno she's multitalented). "Sure!!" She exclaimed. "Just give me a minute to get him. Kari ran to Storm's stall and lead him out. She hopped on him without the tack and only a halter. She trotted up to Ty. "Okey dokey lets go!" Kari said happily.
