Story: (Don't mind if there's any typos, aha)
Evangeline was standing at the doorway to the barn, pausing for a few moments before walking inside to grab her beloved Rose. Today was the day where they would compete in the Showjumping class in this year's FAAF horse show. Walking over with a huge grin on her face, the young adult came upon Rose's stall, and she slowly unlatched the stall door to walk inside.
"Today's the big day, Rose!" She said, patting the mare's neck with a flat palm. "Let's see if all of that training paid off!" Rose Aflame was originally a western prospect horse, though Eve had bought her before she finished training. Ever since then, Rose had been working hard and training in English, specifically show jumping and cross-country. Today will be the big day to test her training, though Rose and Evangeline could both sense each other's confidence in one another.
After tying the mare up with a halter inside of her stall, Evangeline held up a finger, like a lightbulb went off inside of her brain. "I have just the idea, Rose!" She said mysteriously with a smile before walking into the tack room. After a few minutes of Rose slowly looking around, she whinnied happily when she spotted Eve coming back with two bottles and a small sponge. The girl grinned, opening the bigger bottle to reveal some sort of sticky, glue-like substance. She poured a bit of the thick liquid onto a small plate, and dabbed the sponge into it. She then turned, and walked towards Rose. The mare was a little hesitant, though trusted Eve enough to let her do whatever she'd like. Evangeline bent down, and began using the sponge to cover Rose's hooves. She then took the second bottle, which apparently had pink glitter inside, and blotted that right on top of the sticky solution. After she was done with the hooves, she turned and did a similar method on Rose's croup. Whenever she finished, Eve took a step back and stuck her tounge out to admire her work. "Oh Rose, you look like an absolute disco queen!" She laughed, before heading to the tack room and grabbed Rose's personal tack. She had polished everything the night before, so it was bound to be shiny and perfect for the show today. After tacking Rose, Evangeline grabbed her helmet, and put her long, black, hair into a low ponytail using one of her hairties which was of course, pink, to match the show theme. It was around 40 minutes before her class would start, so she decided to hop on and make her way down. Right before she mounted, Eve quickly turned and grabbed some sort of pink sparkly thing, then proceeded to place it over Rose's neck. It was a pink, pearl, necklace!
It had been around ten minutes of watching the others perform before her name was called to the arena. This would be a hard challenge, she thought, as everybody else had done amazingly well. "We got this, Rose!" Eve whispered to her horse with a pat on the neck, right before she walked into the arena. A few moments in, after she started, she already knew that this would be a good round and picked up a canter. Jump after jump were flawless, and she could feel the watchful eyes of the judges burning into the two. On the second to last jump of her course, they came at an angle, and almost didn't make it over. I hope they didn't see that. She thought with a stab in her chest, relieved that they at least made it over the jump and didn't knock any down. After her turn was finished, she made her way out of the ring and listened to the distant ocean. Eve thought that she did good for the most part, and hoped that the judges would agree.
