Lisa yawned and continued her ride. She didn't know where she was at the moment... Which was nerve-racking but not horrible. She glanced around as she came into a clearing. She spots another barn in the distance. -Another barn...?- She thinks walking Domino over to it slowly. She approaches it and can tell no one's their. She hopped off Domino, leaving him outside hidden by the trees. She continued toward it. -Curiousity kills the cat you idiot.- She thinks, walking into the barn. She looks around. -Nothings here...?- She continues into the barn. "Where is everyone?" She mutters. She hear's a quiet meow and looks down/ -Oh God...- She thinks, spotting a cat with almost no hair and ribs showing. She pulls off another of her hoodies. -I should just open a rescue center for animals at this point...- She thinks, picking up the cat carefully and walking out. She starts to run when she hears tires, getting to Domino and hopping on him. She makes a quick mental note to tell Ryker about the place. Holding the cat tight to her chest she urges him into a canter and starts through the trees. She knows where the waterfall is. SO that's where she goes. She comes out of the clearing and spots the waterfall. Sighing in relief she turns to the path Qibli showed her and walked Domino down it. She came out of the last clearing and walked him to the barn, still cradling the cat him her arms. She put up Domino and walked to her cabin with the cat in her arms. "It's alright Sweetheart..." She murmurs, stepping inside. Once inside she gets the cat situated. With blankets, water, and a sound place to sleep. The cat falls asleep almost instantly after drinking some water. Lisa smiles having hid the cat she walked out of her cabin and to her car. Needing to go pick up some cat things, and food. She hopped into her truck, and off she went.

Qibli glanced around, finally meeting Desiree's gaze with a soft smile. "How are you holding up?" He asked quietly, taking her hand against his better judgement. "It is a beautiful trail....one would have to argue one of the most amazing at the stables." Qibli agreed.

(I've never had it happen like this and I am SO EXCITED//

-

Qibli was immediately self-conscious when Desiree's face lit up and she squeezed his hand- he was so used to being bullied and scorned at he had never even considered a relationship. Did he even think of this as.. that? He was rather uncertain about the whole thing, but one thing WAS for certain. Desiree could use a friend throughout this trial, and he was going to be there for her. "That's good- I am sorry about what happened to Phoenix. I wish I could've helped in a more.. helpful way." He paused with a small sigh. "I've been doing fine. I still wish Lisa hadn't shut me out, and I don't really know why, but I can't change the past- only the future." Qibli finished, then glanced at Desiree, his grey eyes searching her's carefully for any sign she was lying about being okay.

Qibli nodded, understanding that at least. "Makes sense. I wish there was something I could do to help." He mused, his gaze growing unfocused as he stared at the sparkling water, the blue sheen twinkling off if his eyes. "Of course you're worried. Anyone would be." Qibli commented, looking up into the sky for a moment.

Qibli shook his head slightly, but the edge of his lips curled up just slightly. "I try." Was all he said as an answer, mostly because he didn't believe her- still, no use putting it out in the open. "Yeah..." He mumbled, his head jerking up as the loud whinny shot through the forest. "Well, it sounded like a horse..." He said half teasingly, but he was already standing. Going about ten feet to the right he stepped across the creek where it was narrow and there was a stone in the middle. Striding out into the forest, Qibli turned to where the sound had come from and silently walked forward. He had years of practice walking in the woods without making any noise, so he was rather skilled at it now.

Lisa gets back from the store and moves the stuff to her room quickly, she sets the stuff up and see's the cat awake now. She feeds the cat and refills it's water, she needed to give it a bath in a few... she stood up remembering the barn and walked out of her cabin and to the office. Walking inside she sat down in a chair infront of Ryker. "Hello." She greeted him tiredly, but with a small smile. She liked this man, he was kind but knew how to deal with buisness.She admired that.
