Sage got into his truck and turns on his song again backs out of the driveway and started heading to the teams stable which is where he worked for a while. Sage drove along and looks around before turning into that driveway and towards his parking, stops the car got out then walks to the stables to start working cleaning out the stalls.

After cleaning he token out horses that belong too other people to the pasture some he had to put in the round pen and let them pay around sage looks at the people in horses and wonders if he would ever want to do what they were doing but sage quietly looks back what he was doing

The owner came to sage and said " sage thanks for doing this all but I still can't pay you " sage said " thats okay I don't need it right now" the owner smiles and walks away sage sighed and pulls another saddle out and cleans every inch of it very good

Dismounting, she walks Aleister into the barn and cross ties him. “Good boy” she says to him as she takes his reins off and hangs them on his hook. “Hey!” She yells to the group as she untacks his saddle and puts it in the tack room. “Has anyone seen Aleisters halter?” Cory walks in leading his Tennessee walker mare named Peace in and tying her to the door of her stall. “I think I saw it in the arena.” Turning around he sees Sage cleaning the tack. “Hey could you go get it for us stable boy?” He asks, grabbing a brush from a nearby bucket and starting to groom Peace.

Rolling her eyes, Isa continues to groom Aleister. “So what are we doing for training?” She asks Cory but keeping her eyes on what she is doing. “Oh and where is Molly? Is she not coming today?” At that Cory’s hand freezes and he frowns. Looking up, Isa notices his worry. “What?” She says stopping and putting some fly spray on Ale. “Isa” he starts and drops the brush back in the bucket. “Molly is quitting.”

Sage groans and said " yeah sure" and walks away towards the area to grab her halter once made it he gumbles to himself and grabs the halter walks back to the barn and hands it to the girl and said " here it is " once he know she grabbed it he walks back to doing his job and heard them over talk about someone quiting and wonders if it was his chance to enter but who would like a stable boy ride in a team

More sage through about it more he got mad with it and throws his cloth down and put the saddle back and more to a new one doing the exact something with that he can bring down his mare tomorrow and show them what he was made of and see how it goes sage nods to himself and hums

After Cory was done talking Isa just nodded and unclipped the cross ties from the extra halter then put Ale’s on and led him to the extra round pen. “Well then” she says as she walks back into the barn where the others have gathered to tack up their horses. “We are gonna need to do tryouts for another teammate or else we can’t compete this year.” She pauses as she grabs a lung rope from the tack room. “Anyway, I’ll meet you guys in the arena. I'm going to lunge Aleister first. Sage, can you help them put up the jumps and get the radio for Brin's dressage?” Grabbing some treats she walks out of the barn and into the round pen being greeted by Ale. “Hey boy want to get some of that energy out?” Patting his side she begins lunging him.

Sage nods and goes to grab the radio and walks out of the barn towards the dressage arena and set the radio down then when to the jumping course to set it up he looks at the picture in the paper and said to himself " hmm how to set it up in time" then nods to himself and walks away without the paper put music on and started to rock and rolls as he put the course together once done he looks at the paper and nods smirks. Sage walks out of the course and wonders if they would be mad if they find out how good he was at riding

Sage sighed and nods walks over to her and said " sure I guess" he holds out his hands crossing his fingers together to able to put her foot on to it sage gumbles to himself and through about it more that he got a plan to enter without them knowing it was him. Sage waited until she got on and said " anything else you want" in a annoy tune but he had to remember who he works for. Sage walks over to the fence and lends against it sighing hard watching them have fun on horses and he couldn't

Sage walks back in and helps her with the jumping polls and sais "and if you want I can set it up tomorrow if you do anything tomorrow" sage was trying to be nice for once sage walks over to a pole and started to take it off when his leg started to pain him sage wince and holds his leg but then straighten up and token off the pole that way the girl doesn't ask anything sage put it away and when to get more as he through about to tomorrow
