Bill
he was looking for a nice horse to capture..a nice kiger stallion...he looked at a kiger in trouble and rode down and scared off the cougar..and put a laasoe over his neck..just in case that one missed he threw a second laasoe over it..and pulled tightly...
this was his mustang..
Spirit
Spirit, the Kiger mustang, was apon his rocky mount, watching down on this human intruder. Determined to get him out, he quickly reared, pawing the air wildly. He bared his teeth at the human. He galloped to him, and stopped in front, his glare mean and angry. How dare humans come to his land?
He reared and pawed the air again, to drive the human out, and relieve his other herd members.
Aralyn
Another rider came over the rise riding a large hispano arabe. She raced towards Bill letting out a sharp whistle. She didnt care that Bill had saved the horse or not. Wild horses were to remain wild. Stopping her horse quickly by Bill she watched Spirit with a cool manner. She wasnt going to hurt him but he didnt know that. She sighed and hopped off her massive horse. This was going to be a very stupid thing to do but if it worked than well good for her. She whispered a few words as she quickly untacked her hispano mare. As any horse would she went towards the stallion wanting to know the reason he was acting the way he was.
Aralyn turned her cold emerald green eyes to Bill. "Let the horse go. Now." It wasnt a question. It was a demand. She meant business. These horses were what she was here for. And she wouldnt allow one of them to be taken away
Spirit
Spirit just noticed the rope, and the advancing human. He backed away, his ears pinned back in frustration. His eyes seemed to say stay away as he continued backing until he could no more. He started tugging hard, trying to pull away. It was no use. He was caught by a human. Not knowing what this new human was going to do, he bared his teeth to try and warn her off. He flicked his tail, and his mane was matted with sweat from the tugging and pulling. He reared up, his hooves pawing the air wildly. He met the ground with a hard thudding noise, and started to turn until his body was side-ways to Aralyn.
Aralyn
Aralyn watched the stallion cautiously. She didnt mind his side being to her. Just wary. She watche Psyche come closer to the stallion
Psyche came closer to the stallion on his other side. She gently nudged him with nose and snorted taking in his wild scent.She smelled him once more and said softly "Whats wrong? Being with a human isnt so bad." she didnt bother to tell him that not all humans were good either. She shook her black body once and turned her eyes to meet his own.
Spirit
He was about to rear back up and whinnie, but didn't when he say Psyche come closer. He moved slightly back when she nudged him. He didn't really mind much though.
"The thing that is wrong is no wild horse wants to be captured. And I know about humans... Much. From Splash Paint, a member of my herd here. She makes encounters with the two-legged, and reports to me all that happened. She says not all are to good, either. She should be at the ranch now."
He flicked his tail again, which was beginning to get all matted from whipping himself with it. His gaze turned down to the ground. He looked back to the humans. With a snort, he turned his side to them again.
Aralyn
Psyche tossed her head and said softly "But not all are bad either. Like mine. Shes my best friend." she knew it was kind of pathetic but she didnt care. She nudged him softly. "Trust her. She will find a way to get you out."
Bill
Bill looked at the other human..he wanted this mustang to put more wild horses into the wild..so more could be free..and kigers were getting rare..
i am sorry for the mis understanding..i am here to replenish the wild horses of this area..not to harm them...
he eased his horse back to give ir some room..he wanted spirit to come closer so he could get the ropes off..he didn't want to harm him in any way..
Aralyn
Aralyns eyes narrowed.
"The wild horses are taking care of that on there own. If need be I will set more of my horses free."
She turned and saw Psyche. She let out a sharp whistle and the mare gazed at her with deep eyes. She nudged Spirit a bit harder in the direction of the man.
"My master has gotten you free"
she said softly.
"You only need to cooperate for a minute."
Spirit
Spirit didn't want to go to the human, but forced himself to go. He slowly walked forward, his ears still pinned back. His buckskin pelt was getting sweatier, his sides heaved. He shook his head and stopped in his tracks. He pawed the ground. He pulled back his head, pulling the rope a bit, but not much. He snorted and just stood there, his angry eyes still wide, and ears still pinned back. His black mane barely waved in the wind like it used to, it was getting matted. His tail, getting knotted. He waited to see what the humans would do.
Aralyn
Not bothering to wait for Bill to Move she said "Hold the rope" she slowly walked to Spirit and gently grabbed the rope. She made soft cooing noises to him and takes the rope of slowly. She backed away knowingfully well the damge he could do to her.
Psyche smiled and said "See? It wasnt so bad. I will come and visit sometime. I like it here." she smiled warmly and gave him a small nudge. "See you around Spirit." she trotted back over to Aralyn and waited as the young woman silently tacked her up.
Aralyn rode to the top of her rise and watched down below at all the horses. In her mind these were her horses to protect and love. No one was going to take them away from her
Spirit
He let the human take the rope off. He unpatiently waited. He wanted to get back to his herd... Not saying they were all here.He flocked away from them, and galloped back to his rocky ridge, and looked down on his herd. He had the largest herd in the entire valley. He was happy for that. Just remembering the fight he was in, he galloped away, like he was in flight. His legs barely touched the ground as he made his way. He jumped while still running, so happy to be free once more.
bill
he soon listened and began to see a point..he sure didn't want to hurt them...he wanted to talk to the other human for a moment..what she thought he should do..if things were beggining to decline..he would have to do something..
his heart was glad when he saw spirit leave..flying with the wind..he smiled and began to pat his horse...then gave her a sugarcube..
Aralyn
She smiled and turned Psyche. Her job was done here. Now she was heading to the tall grass prairie where a girl was trying to catch Splash of Paint.
