Little Bang
I was on my horse, its pillars clopping along on the dusty ground. I was staring at the tree's, one hand off the rain as Little Bang walked at a slow pace. I couln't really decide where I was heading, yet my mind remained blank. I was actually quite bored, and keen to meet somebody new, though I knew there'd be no one on this trail. It was barely used, and only a few people bothered to walk down it. The bushes stuck out onto the grubble and Little Bang dodged them at a content pace. I brushed my hand down her ebony grey mane, I found it rather beautiful. Today it hadn't rained a drop, clear blue sky's were vividly scattered in the air and only the faint cloud could be seen. I continued down the trail, spotting a scratched sign. A small black bird sat upon it, flying off as I came nearer. I halted my horse, her white hooves crunching at the ground. The sign said 'Pure Springs'. I looked up, my mind racing quite hard. A stable.. another stable. I knew there were other stables in the area, but I hadn't noticed for how long I had been wondering with my horse. I kicked her shoulders, her going into a slow paced walk. I firmly kicked again, gripping her reigns and going into a fast trot and then into a a canter. I looked keenly infront of me, racing towards what I think might be a stable. Soon the tiles of stable roofs could be seen above the tree tops, a smile came to my face. I slowed to a walk, i didn't say a word and all I could hear were the clots of my horses hooves on the stone pavement, only just noticing that the rubble of the path had become a proper ground. Little Bang halted, I slowly dismounted her, mouth wide open with amazment.
I gripped her reigns and swung them around to the front of her head and lead her into the courtyard of the stables. I looked at the scratched names of the stable block, the doors and building. It was a magnifcent place, beautiful. "Hello?" I stuttered, checking the face of my horse, the flies seemed to annoy her in the summer heat. I continued walking, waiting for a response from my words.

Scattered World
It was a lovely day today. I could hear the birds singing in the trees as I walked along. The world seemed to be in peace and that was a very rare thing. The air was fresh. I loved living out here. No car fumes to spoil the wonderful scene. No sounds of the city all around you. The purity of everything here was just amazing. I just loved it. There was nothing to interrupt the peace around here. I was happy with living here. Pure Springs. Mostly named after the huge waterfall in the middle of the main courtyard. It sparkled in the sun and in my opinion made the place look all the more attractive. Thats just one of the best things about this place. It was beautiful. I could look after the horses easily here. There was lots of space and with a forest not to far away hacks could be arranged easily.
I only had a few horses here at the moment however. Two to be promise. There was Falcon or Soaring Falcon, whatever you want to call him. He was a beautiful beast but was currently in his stall munching on the hay that I had given him. He seemed to be settling in fine here which was great. Then there was my new one. Scattered World. Thats who I was going to get. She was proving to be a little trouble maker, but I loved her all the same. She was kept in a field instead of a stable. I gripped a pink head collar in my hand. The lead rope dangling down a little. It too was pink. I don't know why I choose that color for her. I just did. Falcon's head collar was blue, my favorite color. Though I don't know why I am going on about the color of head collars. Its just a random subject.
Soon I had reached the field and let myself in. The grey horse was grazing some way away. I pulled out a Polo from my pocket knowing that without it, it would not be an easy task to catch her. Though World took interest in the small mint and stood there. Staring at it resting in the palm of my hand. I came closer and soon she stretched out to grab the small Polo from my hand. I quickly fastened the head collar round her head and there she was caught. World didn't seem to be bothered though. She was to busy enjoying the mint.
I lead her out of the field and back down to where the stables where. The sound of her hooves hitting the ground over comed all other sounds. I smiled as she nudged me trying to get more mints. As we walked through the arch she pushed me once more. The pack of Polos falling from my pocket.
Oi! You little monkey!
I laughed as I bend down and picked up the packet. Laughter crept all over my face as I rose. Patting her long, slender neck. I hadn't noticed the other girl and her horse but now it came to my attention that someone was there. My blue eyes came to see her. I lead World on while tucking the packet back in my pocket. I had stopped laughing but a smile stayed there on my face. A hand reached up and tucked a some blond hair behind my ear. We both came to a halt in front of the girl. There I streched out a hand and spoke.
Hi there, may I help you in any way?
It was more of the business speak but I didn't care. I loved life here with my two horses. I looked over to see Falcons head peering out his stall. I loved him so much. I loved World as well. They where better than I could ever dream of.

Little Bang I smiled at the sight of a person. Little Bang stretched out her curvature, a always frienly horse. I put my hand on her nose and pushed her back gently. A smile came to by face as the girl spoke. I realised I had been standing on the grass, it was so - green. I coughed, clearing my throat. "Hi, Im Crossfold." I paused, I never thought of my name, but there it was 'Crossfold' How weird?! "-But you can call me Crossy" a cheerfully gave her a smile. Accidently I let go of the reigns of Little Bang, her getting her head and ramming it into me, not in a horrible way, but friendly playful manner. "Oh yeah - this is my horse, Little Bang." I patted the horses head, "Whats your name?" I looked around, wishing I could let Bang off somewhere, yes - I called her Bang. I loosened her reigns, trying to get her to relax more easily. She was quite hyper at the moment and quite keen to do things. I then patted her dapple Grey bodence again, not really saying what to say. "and you own this place?" I looked about, I could see a horse sticking its head out of a stable, "Beautiful horse!" I stopped looking and looked at the girl, my brown and blone hair tied neatly in a pony tail on my head and a black hat perched ontop. I yawned, covering my mouth with my hand. I was quite sleepy atually, walking around all day, I actually felt sorry for Bang. I looked at my feet, the black boots covered in the mud from the muddly groudn we had been over.
[sorry by posts are so short, I haven't got much to say]

Scattered World
Scattered World nudged me once again. She really was pretty persistent. I gave a small laugh and patted her. She gave up trying to get the mints and took more interest in the other horse. She really was a curios creature. Though thats what I loved about her. She was a lot like me. Thats what I loved about the mare. We had a lot of fun really. I know she is a horse but you can still enjoy the company of these magnificent creatures. Some people treat horses without respect but in my opinion that is just a poor act on there behalf. Animals are much better than us humans in my opinion. They seem to know a lot more than us anyway. Like dogs and other creatures seem to know when bad things are going to happen. Its like they just have a sense. We don't have anything like that. So animals are a lot more amazing then us. If you don't agree then fine.
I watched the girl though. She seemed very nice and I am sure we could get along just perfectly. I listened to her patiently. So she was named Crossfold. That was an unusual name but it was a nice one in my opinion. My brain automatically shortened the word to Crossy and then she said that I could call her that. I didn't know quite what to say to it though but maybe I should tell her my name. I was about to speak when her horse head butted her. Laughter escaped my mouth instead. She was just like world. Then she introduced the horse to me. Little Bang. It was a nice name for a lovely horse. Though at her question I answered it willingly. Telling her my name.
I'm Rebecca. Though my friends just call me Becka. It is a pleasure to meet you Crossy
World raised her head at my name and her ears pricked upright. She was a little devil at times, but I knew she loved me and for one thing I love her. I should introduce this one to Crossy. Though soon the girl was talking again and I found it better just to listen to her. More questions and then she noticed Falcon. He seemed not to be bothered by the new mare or the new girl for that matter. He continued chewing his hay. An expression on his face that told me he was enjoying it.
I do own this place. Its called Pure Springs, because of the large waterfall
I pointed to the running water some way away. The sound of it filled the whole stables. It was a peaceful sound that I was used to by now.
The horse in the stable is Soaring Falcon and this little monkey is ScatteredWorld
I spoke while landing a pat on the World's neck. The mare snorted at the sound of her name and looked eagerly around as if looking for something that she had lost. She was a funny little thing really.
