Rosa chuckles, taking Seven's halter from it's location hanging on his stall. She then enters his stall, stroking his head and then slipping the halter over his head. She then gently tugs the lead rope before starting to walk out towards the crossties.

Seven follows the girl into the crossties but stops infront of them. -Hehe,im so funny- He then starts backing up.Honestly,imagine a draft backing up and you trying to stop him?Keep dreaming.He kept backing up and did a mini-rear.

Rosa was taken by surprise when Seven began backing up. She let the lead rope go a little bit so she wouldn't be yanked around. "No, buddy. We can't be doing this" she says, refusing to budge. "Come on. Into the crossties" she says leading him into and attatching the crossties on either side of his halter. "If you be good, I'll sneak you another pepermint" she told him, whispering in his ear.

-Ooh peppermint!- Seven obediatley stood in the cross-ties.As the girl groomed him he relaxed a bit and docked his hip.He shook at the flies buzzing around his neck and head.With a roached mane and a tail in a bun,he really had no defense against flies.

Rosa took a clean towel and wiped Seven's face. She then went to brush his back. As Rosa was brushing, she noticed a lot of flies around Seven's head. Taking fly repealent that was animal safe, she sprayed some on a towel and wiped his head and ears with it. "Is that better boy?" she asks, giving him a gentle pat before going and getting the promised peppermint.

Seven nickered softly and gobbled down the peppermints.Boy,did he like peppermints.As she brushed his back he got mentally ready for their ride.

Rosa lead Seven out to the arena, wanting to test ride him and get a feel for him before working and perhaps going on a short trail ride depending on how he was that day. If he was grumpy or spooky, she'd not do much, in order to ease the stress on Seven

(it's okay!)

As Rosa lead him to the mounting block he froze.Oh nevermind,he's all good now.Seven lined up by the mounting block for her to get on and stared out in the distance.As she hopped on he spooked and bolted while bucking and freaking out.

Rosa was caught off guard as Seven bolted. She had to hold on to prevent falling off. She pulled the reigns sharply to the right, taking him in a tight circle that he would be unable to go so fast in, hoping to slow him down. Despite her efforts she was bucked off, landing on the ground. She groaned, pain soaring through her legs and back.

Eventually,cough like almost 10 minutes cough Seven calmed down and walked over to Rosa where he snorted in her face.How kind of him.He stood next to her and muzzled her hand as if saying, I'm sorry.
