Description You're lost, and walking down a country road, the apple orchard you where planning to go too was supposed to be close from the bus stop, but the road didn't look like the internet map said it would, and now you're lost.

Maybe a passing car will lend you a ride and tell you where you are?
The road isn't very busy though, but you hold out your thumb

Behind you, you start hear the clicking of hooves against the road, you turn around in time

A horse gallops over the hill behind you, races down after you at frightening speed, and just when you're ready to dive into the ditch to stop being run over, the horse slows down and stops, and a kid (it's hard to tell weather it's a girl or a boy, but you have a feeling it's probably a girl) Smiles down at you.
She has a striped polo shirt on, worn light blue overalls, with dirty and grass stains on the knees, her hair is dirty golden blond, cut fairly short and somewhat messily. freckles line her cheeks, her hands are well worn from years of work and play, though she looks middle-school aged. she has no saddle, only a basic reigns.

"need a ride?" She says, and smiles at you.

Alex: *goes into a short lecture on the different types of apples that the orchard grows, and explains they're strengths, weaknesses, uses, and tastes, as she knows the farmers personally, at the end of her short speech, she looks up at their surprised faces, and says* Oh... Sorry, was that to detailed

Alex: *smiles* maybe that's because I work here during the fall months and help them pick apples along with having a hundred or so trees of my own

StefanPWinc In reply to LittleShiro-kun [2011-11-04 04:13:59 +0000 UTC]

Alex: Allright... sweet, but not too mushy and still a bit crisp? *thinks for a second, and recommends they try 3 different types, taste them first, and if they like them pick more, they agree, and she grins and leads them down the rows of trees, a large dog starts to follow them as well*

*over the next half an hour, alex leads them to several different apples, invites them to try a bunch of different tipes, and helps them pick, near the end, they have several big bags of various types in their wagon, and, deciding they have enough, they start on their way back, Billy, the dog, follows them the whole time, and pays particular attention to Alex and Damian

*as they play, it quickly becomes apparent that sam and alex shouldn't have been put on the same team, as an offense team they quickly score 7 goals, while letting in 2

LittleShiro-kun In reply to StefanPWinc [2011-11-05 03:11:16 +0000 UTC]

Damian: OK, Sam, would you mind switching with Morna? I think the game's a little too uneven.

Sam: *she nods* Yeah, sure. *she's unhappy about this, but avoids saying anything*

StefanPWinc In reply to LittleShiro-kun [2011-11-05 03:14:47 +0000 UTC]

Now the game is much closer to tied, both alex and sam do their best to try to beat the other team, with sam having the advantage of age, they battle it out, eventually, Alex, damien and morna have 5 goals, and Sam's team has 4, and they call it a game at nine points like they said earlyer, alex is exhausted, but exuberated at having won*

Sam: *she laughs* NICE. And now, it seems that it's time for penalty games.

Damian: *he walks over, helping Alex up* Penalty games are basically when we give the loser an order which they have to follow, within reason of course.
