Steph slipped the girth up another hole. Then she pulled the stirrup irons down the lethers. There was a sharp snap as they hit the end of the leather, then she swung her leg over the saddle and lucy started to walk towards the arena. Steph slipped her feet into the stirrups and kept the riensloosley in her hand. Lucky had his jumping saddle and double bridle on. As they drew into the indoor arena, steph puled the door shut and started round at a walk. Hopinf someone would join them but at the same time hoping to be left alone. Steph was a shy rider and had only been riding in america for about a month. She found it totally diffrent from the UK in pratically everything they did. She smiled to herself as she let lucky slip into a nice smooth trot. Posting as she went day dreaming along. She then started singing to herself and to lucky as she started to warm up around the course of 3' and up jumps she had set up.

Kyle quickly tacked up his equine to practice in the indoor arena since the penetrating sun was too much to go into the outdoor arena. He put on a navy blue saddle pad and girthed Majesty with a Show saddle, wanting to make Majesty feel as if he was at a Show for practice. He slid on the Showing Bridle and rested the leather reins on Majesty's shoulders. Pulling down the two iron stirupps, Kyle mounted the masculine stag. He pointed his toes and heels down. He raised his two feet to see if the stirups matched eachother, which, in fact, the did. Kyle clicked into a trot, kicking slightly at the horse's belly. He posted as they neared the arena, standing up in the stirups at every other correct rythm. Kyle pulled back on the reins as the door was not ajar. He dismounted from the left side of Royal Touch and swung open the door, making the sound echo throughout the colosal arena. Volting back onto Majesty's saddled back, he retreated into the arena, going towards the left side first. The were a couple of jumps set up about 3 feet tall. This would be the perfect time to practice!!!

As the other equine apprached, lucky heard it, his ears pricked and he lifted his feet into an even more springy trot. Steph was about to ask for a canter when the gate slid open, lucky jumped forward and steph quickly righted her postion and halted lucku, 'steady boy, your ok', she stroked his neck and pushed him into a trot. Circling at the bottom end while the other rider got sorted. Without hardly a signal except a small click and a slight touch of her heel on his side lucky went into a lovley smooth cnater. They cnatered a few circles and then pulled back up and trotted round eventually gathering a walk and wlaking the whole arena. [/center]

Majesty lifted in heels like he was a Tenesse Walking Horse, prancing around the jumps to know what he has to prepare for. As the couple circumferenced the final job, Kyle lead Royal Touch to the beginnning of them all, getting ready to jump wonderfully. Kyle clipped Majesty to a canter standing in the stirups and heading straight to the middle of the 3 foot hurdle. Kyle leaned over the horse's withers, hands on the reins just above his position on the withers. The masc equine tucked his limbs in to his chest and arched his neck, back haunches positioned on the turf in a diagnol straight angle. As they finally landed on the sandy ground under them, Kyle securely leaned back into an outstanding ending movement. He did the same to each jump and pool that came in their direction and path. Royal Touch nickered as he saw another equine in his sight's view. He arched his lace and kept focus on what he was supposed to do. Kyle didn't notice the girl, but did hear a whinny. Kyle pulled back on the reins a tad, slowing the stag to a steady and easy lope, kissing his lips. They cleared all the jumps, soaring and leaping over them like a professional, though they actually were. No faults would've been added to their score if they were really competing at a National Show. They were SPECTACULAR TOGETHER!!!

Steph watched the boy and his horse work around the jumps. She let lucky follow around. Despite him being a small 14.2hh pony he flew easily over the fences and steph was in perfect form. Lucky snorted and threw in a couple of bucks. As they soared over the last fence and came slolwy to a walk steph dismounted and lucky stood as she put one of the spreads up to 4'. Mounting again, the jump nearly bigger then the small pony, lucky. She cantered a circle and flew over it like she was doing an olympic course. She patted lucky as they landed and let the doule riens slid threw her fingers so lucky could have a 5 minute break. She smiled at the other rider and hoped he hadn't seen her jump, all she hd heard since she had arrived in america was that she was an alright rider, except she was better then alright she was excellent and perfect, well as perfect as one person can get. she was quite famous back int he UK and everyone who was horsie knew her.

Kyle watched the girl from his side view, seeing her set up a foot higher jump. He backed up his horse and extended his trot by lifting the reins slightly and sitting deeper. Majesty spread out his paces, doing just as he was told. The girl was good, jumping over the five foot jump effortlessly. "OH YEAH?! I can do better!" Kyle said to her, dismounting and setting up a seven foot jump right infront of him. He mounted the equine again, reining him back by pulling on the reins more than you would to pause your horse. He squeezed harder with his feet, standing up imediatly in the stirups, going full speed to the jump. As they arrived, he pulled up, doingas though he would at any other jump. Landing, he halted the horse and turned him around, seeing that three rails were knocked down. He blushed a smile. "My bad!" He patted Royal Touch's lace and beamed a broad smile!!!

Steph watched him, a huge smile spread across her face as she dismounted and placed the rails back on. 'Watch the pro's show you how it's done', she turned to lucky and mounted, 'coem on lucky', she laughed and cnatereing a few laps of the school turned and headed for the jump, speading over it nicley, not in there best form, but they made it over. 'god that looked ugly', she laughed and added 'at least we left it up', she watched as a pole rocked in it's cup. She turned and rode obver to the boy, 'Hey!, i'm steph, nice horse you've got there' [/center]

He dismounted the equine and held onto the leather reins, standing next to him to watch the female try the jump. "Eh, beginer's luck." He smiled, noticing she cleared the jump. He set up three 6.5 feet high jumps. He cantered over the jumps, one after another, perfect position and awesome grip and amazing finish. Royal Touch slowed to a steady trot, bouncing around in the Western Saddle. "But mine looked pretty, well hansom." He recited, proud of Royal Touch and his confidence in jumping. "I'm Kyle. Oh, this lil fella is Royal Touch, or Majesty. We're trying to make it to the Olympic Games. What's your equine's name?" He smiled!!!

Steph laughed. 'Begginner's luck how dare you!', she exclamed laughing still. She followed him over the jumps the firstand sencond went smootly but she nearly fell at the last. As he commented himself with his handsome line. she looked at him on the equine, 'i'll say', she mummbled thinking in her mind that he was nice looking anyway. 'O, this is northern sapphire, but we call him lucky.', lucky snorted at his name. She dismounted and puit the jumps down a bit but made them spread. not wanting to strain lucky anymore. [/center]

Kyle laughed at her remark. "Sorry, but it's only the truth, unless you can prove me wrong!" He smiled. He watched her carefully, mounting Majesty from the right side. Her little stumble at the end gave him an idea. "I see what's wrong." He began to trot over, wanting to show her. He jumped all three jump poles easily without pressure or tension. "The key to the three in such a high position is to grip the sides of Lucky with your elbows until you get a little more used to it. Lean over more to stablize yourself from falling and get a tight grip on the reins. Make sure it isn't loose to maintain full control of Lucky. You can even move your hands up more above his withers to keep balance. You'll get used to it eventually. As you can see, we did!!!" Royal Touch nickered to Lucky and shook his banner. "I can see he's very LUCKY to have a great owner like you." He said, emphasizing the word/name, "Lucky." He patted Royal's lace and brought him over to the water trough in the center of the HUGE arena. Royal Touch bent down as Kyle released the reins. He took long sips that refreshed him. It felt GREAT!!!

Steph laughed, 'ok thanks, she sed as she tried the jumps ahgain. This time there was no stumble. 'ok smarty pants, it worked., she let lucky take some water, he started to play in it, splashing it everywere. Steph laughed as water hit her. 'So. . . how long have you been riding??', she asked trying to make conversation. Lucky interupted when he took a gulp of water and shook his head as he opened his gob. Sprayign water everywere. 'Lucky', steph laughed, Lucky turned his head to look at her as she laughed and consiquently she slipped off his side. Layign on the floor still laughing she stood up. 'I meant to do that!', she laughed. [/center]

Royal Touch snorted as Lucky splashed him with water as if to say: "I was enjoying this!" Kyle dismounted and lead Majesty to the other side of the trough, laughing as well. "I'm always right!!!" Kyle exclaimed, proud of his accomplishments. Royal shook his drenched coat, making Kyle get wet. "Silly boy!" He smiled, running his hand through his slick hair. Kyle put one hand over his mouth, trying to hold in a laugh as Steph fell off the playful and amusing horse. He went over to her with a giggling tone. "Are you *giggle* o *laugh* k?" He burst out laughing after his sentence and went back over to Royal Touch, trying to hide his laughter from the girl. Majesty walked over to Steph and licked her face, nipping at her hair. Kyle grabbed his halter and pulled him away from her, still laughing. "He LOVES you!!!" Kyle said, patting Royal Touch!!!

'Aww', she sed patting the beautiful horse. Lucky snorted and started to sulk. Moving over to kyle. he then nuzzled him. 'Someone jealus, lucky', she smiled at kyle. 'Fancy going for a hack?'. steph asked her british accent coming out strong [/center]

Kyle beamed and helped her up from the sandy ground. "Good!" He spoke tenderly. Royal Touch nickered and flung his banner in the air happily. Kyle put his arms around Lucky's neck and rubbed his muzzle. "Maybe you and me could go riding sometime, buddy! What do ya think?" He spoke, trying to get along with the masculine stag. Kyle turned his attention back to Steph. "You know me well!!!" He looked at Royal Touch still nibbling at Staph's tassles, wanting to play. "Since Royal Touch likes you SO VERY much, maybe we could switch horses for our ride?" He smiled, patting the equine's lace!!!

Steph smiled and watched lucky, stroking royal touches kilky neck the whole time. 'Thats sounds liek an ace idea', she sed. She handed looped lucky's rien back over his head and sorted out the huge knot that had been formed with all the messing around. Then handing them to kyle, she took hold of royal touch. Then aking sure the girth was tighgt enough. She placed her left foot in te iron and swung lightly onto royal touch's back. once on-board she looked down. 'ok, ready when you are.', she spoke to kyle. Squeezing lightly wih her legs to make royal touch walk. He fel very diffrent from her 18hh hanoverian and even more diffrent form the small 15.1hh lucky. He picked his feet up nicley though. [/center]
