Tucker bared his teeth and started to rear. His eye caught the fear in Larka's eye, and Ashley's face and brought himself down. He knew Ashley was not one of his enemies, but did not know this new stallion and so kept his ears down and teeth bared. "Do not tell me what to do!" Tucker yelled
You could see the fear in Larka's eyes, the white showing all around the edges. She spoke softly to Barley "Barley, wh-what's happening? I'm scared"
The man knew who the girl was and knew, this one wasn't to mess with. She was the colonel's daughter, and if he wanted to keep his job, he'd better keep his mouth shut. "Yes, ma'am" he said, avoiding her glare.

Braveheart looked at Tucker. " You dare deny an order!" He hissed turning his neck to show his Sargent horse tatoo.
Ashley lookd into the bushes. She looked at the fillys eyes. " What do you think you were doing?!" She demaned when the man wouldn't look at her she yelled. " Look at me!"
Barley nickered softly and nuzzled her. "They want to take us. But don't worry, no matter what I won't let them get you." He said whispering it softly in her ear.

"Oh shut up!" Tucker turned to show his flank "See? I have one too!" He added annoyingly
Fear showed in Larka's eyes, though this girl seemed like she wanted to keep them free.Larka could feel her thigh throbbing where she had a cut from one of the branches when Barley had pushed her in and looked to see some blood coming down now.
"I was just following orders ma'am.Colonel sent us out to get some fresh horses." he said sheepishly, looking her in the eye, well soft of anyway.

Ashley realezied who it was. She calmed down and sent the rest of the men. " You all go find some other horses, Can't you see these are you young?" She barked at them, although she knew they were not that young.
Braveheart snorted. Rolling his eyes. " What ever." He said.
Barley looked at Larka. " Come on this way." He said nudging her towards a hole in the branches.

"Yes ma'am" they answered in unison
Tucker snorted, refusing to go where his rider was telling him to go, with the others.
Larka crept after him, blood still coming down her flank. Her eyes looked back at the stallion called Tucker eyery so often. There was something about him, something she just couldn't put her hoof on....it was like she knew him.

Ashley dismounted Braveheart and looked at the soilder hoping he would do the same. She hid behind her big horse, her heart was raising. 'How come daddy had to send the one man I love to the place he knew I would be?' she wondered to herself

Chris followed suit and walked up to her, Tucker in hand. Tucker's ears still were layed back, but his eyes were calm."Sorry about that" he said, scuffing the toes of his boots absentminddly.

Ashley felt her heart race. " No its fine. Come lets go for a walk." She said tieing Braveheart to the tree.

Chris tied Tucker up to the tree that Braveheart was tied to and followed Ashley. He looked quickly at the filly watching him with wide eyes and noticed the trickle of blood coming down her flank. "Hey, look, I think she got herself caught on somthing" he said

Ashley looked into the bush. She walked around and looked at the beatifull little filly. She slumped her shoulders and walked over slowly talking gently to the filly.

Larka backed away, her eyes white around the edges. "Barleeey" she said slowly

Barley walked infront of Larka clicking his teeth in warning to Ashley.
Ashley sighed. " There is nothing I can do Chris, they won't let me near her." she said with a sigh turing to look at him.

"Here, try this" Chris said and reached into his pocket and pulled out a few molasses horse treats. The smell enticed Larka and she allowed her ears to come forward for a moment.

Ashley took them from him. She felt her cheeks grow hot as she touched Chris's hand. She turned quickly so he couldn't see and held them out to the two horses.
Barley looked confused, he liked the smell but something told him not to. He didn't know what to do.

Chris could feel his cheeks get hot when she touched his hand and he smiled quickly. Larka touched Barley on his shoulder and took a few steps forward, stretching her neck out to the girl's palm. Tucker watched the scene, not moving. He too felt like he knew her. She almost looked like his daughter Bella, but that couldn't be, for she had been sold when she was a yearling.
