An old red seventy-eight Ford truck poked along the town of Lebanon home town of Brass Ring Equestrain Center. The girl in the red truck wasn't so sure if she was that excitied to be here or not she didn't want to leave Oklahoma at all, but ofcourse the wicked step-mother told her father she needed to go. Her father didn't even try to stop her plus he wasn't even here to make sure she made it okay. He offered that one of her five brothers would take her and ofcourse her oldest brother without a family said "yes". She knew why he had said "yes" and that was to get off the ranch anyway he could. Brown eyes looked in the rearview mirror to see the two horse bumper pull following behind them. Luckly she got to bring her mare Adele with her as they was traveling in truck and trailer instead of flying or taking a greyhound bus. If it wasn't for her oldest brother taking her she wouldn't have gotten to bring her mare with her.
Brown eyes watched the highway as she put her hand against the windowsill and propped it up with her head. Ellie wasn't like the other girls that was going to be going to school here. She knew she would have to work harder than ever to even make it to the top. She was going to be made fun ofcourse because she was a cowgirl from Oklahoma riding Jumpers. Which Ellie really didn't care she could handle her own and didn't need friends if they couldn't like her the way she was. Brown eyes scanned the green acers as they finaly made their turn toward Brass Ring. Ellie looked across to where her brother was sitting with his stupid grin on his face.Why are you so happy? She asked him, but he looked at her and smile at her and turned back to driving as he pulled up the long drive of Brass Ring.
The red ford stopped at the stable where the huge sign of "Brass Ring Equestrian Center" hung above the barn doors. Ellie sat in the truck adn watched as her brother got out of the truck and placed his black cowboy hat on his head and all Ellie could do was roll her eyes at him.Well sis, you ain't gonna get nothing done sitting on your butt. Her brother said bending down in the window looking at her. Ellie found the handle of the red ford and jerked it open and placed the brown cowboy hat on her head and slammed the door.Shut up Devon. Was all she could saw as she looked around the barn and notice she was going to be a lot different than the girls and boys who rode here. Ellie felt the long sleeve shirt itch at her skin, but she had to forget it and get Adele out of the trailer.

Logan slipped his mares leather halter over the dapple grey head."Hey Rush," he greeted the mare. He smiled as she neither back to him and followed him as he went to the outside of the stall to grab a lead rope. "What re you doing, silly!" he asked her with grin as he clipped he lead on and gently pushed her back into he stall. The teen tied the lead to the stall and left her tied to the bars of the stall. She had room to drink her water and could reach her full haynet.
Logan walked into the tack room and back to the stall. This time in hand was his grooming kit. He enter the stall and his mare greeted him again, before going back to munching on her hay. The seventeen year old placed the grooming kit on the stall floor and picked up a mane comb. He planned to braid her mane and tail and make her sparkling clean before their riding lesson tomorrow. He sighed and got to work on removing the knots.

The short legged red head walked to the back of the trailer to unlock the trailer. Ears tuned to the Sabino ThoroughbredxPaint mare in the trailer stomping around wanting out of the trailer as soon as she could. It had been a long eighteen hours to get the mare here. They had to stop several times to let the mare out and streach her legs so she wouldn't be crippled when they got here. Ellie looked at the creme colored trailer and shook her head. How embrassing to have a rust bucket of a trailer and have her brother drive her all the way here. She wasn't rich by no means and it had taken everything of her fathers savings to send Ellie here. Ellie opened the trailer gate and as fast as she opened the mare was already there at the butt guard pushing at it. Stop it Adele, move forwardEllie slapped the covered chestnut sabino butt so the mare would get off the butt guard so she could open it without getting trampled by the mare.
Once Ellie got the butt guard off the mare began to stepp backwards. Luckly her brothers and their family had given her a few gifts to make the trip up here and ofcourse have some very good tack that wasn't falling apart. When Adele stepped out of the trailer the large sixteen two hand mare jerked her head around to get a better look of the place. The mare was wearing a sheet that had her name sewed into it which read " Rumor Has It and ofcourse her sister-in-law had bought her the blanket and the leather halter that said the same thing with her barn name "Adele on it aswell. Ellie took ahold of the leather halter as Adele began to move around her in a prance. The mare was very jittry and wanted to get out and streach her legs, but she would have to wait.
Ellie took a hold of the leather halter as her brother was in the other gate getting her tack trunks out of the trailer. They had put all her bags for her room into the little living quarters in the trailer, but didn't have much room for the large trunks so they stuck them in the back. I got this go ahead and get her inside and come back and help me. Ellie shook her head and clicked her tounge at the blue eyed mare toward the open barn. Ellie saw acouple of horses in their stalls, but didn't do say anything until she saw a boy in one of the stalls working on the mane of his horse. Ellie tried to control the prancing mare, but ofcourse Adele wanted to out smart her and try and act like a fool of a horse. Ellie found the stall that had her name plate on it and walked the Sabino mare into the stall. She turned the mare around so she would face the stall door and uncliped the lead.There you go girl.[/c] She patted the neck of the mare and walked out of the stall and shut the door and hung the lead rope on the stall.
Ellie looked down as she walked past the guy and his horse as she walked back outside to help her brother unload the trailer. When she got back outside her brother was holding onto one of the trunks and looked at her.Well are you going to take your time? Ellie wanted to yell at him, but she kept her mouth shut adn jogged to him and picked up one end of the trunks and began to walk with her brother to the tack room. Ellie's red hair began to fall around her face which was bothering her and tired to get it out of her face. Ellie and her brother set the trunk in the tack room where there was a free spot then went back to the trailer with her brother and helped with all the tack.

Beep. Beep. Beep. Small hands held onto the small tack trunk as she sat it down on the ground and looked at her brother as he opened the door of the red ford and smiled at him. Even though he could be a big pain in her butt she still loved him.Well, I guess this is good-bye Ellie shook her head and gave him a hug and he wrapped his arms around her and smiled.Just don't mess it up, we are all rooting for you Ellie.He grinned at her and let her go and got into the truck. Elle held onto her elbow as she watched her brother leaving her here. Ellie turned around and grabbed the small tack trunk and walked into the barn.
Brown eyes looked over toward the boy who was still working on his horse and flashed him a smile. She still had her cowboy hat that was covering her eyes so you couldn't hardly see what color of her eyes were. Ellie sat the medium trunk outside of the stall where she kept Adele's blanket,brushes, wraps and boots. Ellie grinned at the sabino mare who was standing in the stall with her sheet still on. Ellie opened the stall door and pushed her body into the stall and began to work the sheet off the mare and folded and laided it on the stall door. She rubbed the chestnut down and smiled.It's just you and me now.She seighed alittle and the made nudged her arm.

Logan watched the girl quietly as he worked. "Almost done!" he told his mare. The girl was wearing a cowgirl hat that covered her eyes. To Logan she looked more like she might ride Western rather than English, but who was he to judge. He liked meeting new, diffrent people.
When the girl smiled at him, Logan smiled back. She seemed to be the friendliest person he had met yet, but he hadn't met very many people as everyone was busy settling in. The teenager placed the grooming tool back in it's place before picking up the kit and standing back to admire his work. The mare was shining!
Logan left his prized made tied in the stall. He decided to shut the stall door just in case she managed to get loose, while he put his grooming tools away in his tack box by Rush's stall. Logan brushed his hands together to remove some of the dust from his strong hands, before he walked over to the girl and her mare. He noted the mare was a sabino. One of his favorite colours, next to dapple of course. Logan waited for her to remove the blanket before speaking. "Hey, I am Logan Jenkins. Your mare is very lovely." Logan told her as he stuck his hand up to the bars of the stall for her mare to smell. He knew some horses didn't like strangers and he didn't know if she was one of them. He knew that the one thing Rush hated was strange people getting on and riding her, but she craved the pats and treats. "And you are?" He asked turning his attention and gaze to the young women. She was younger than him, but fairly cute. Logan could tell that he might like her. As a friend or more, he didn't know.
