Description
Ok...So THIS is where my story kicks off, You've never met Taylor before this k?<3 Story is by a really great friend =HeartOfStoneRescue
The small black car crunched slowly up the driveway, some obnoxiously pop song blaring out the window as it rolled to a stop.
A few horses in a nearby pasture raised their head lazily as the blonde girl popped out of the car and stretched.
"Ah, feels good to finally stretch my legs" She said to nobody in particular.
A large ginger barn cat approached her cautiously, one ear completely missing, the other torn to shreds. It twined itself about her legs a few times, a deep rumble of a purr reverberating around its chest. She reached down to pet it, its head forcefully greeting her hand.
She smiled then, ruffling the cat's fur a few more moments before straightening herself and moving toward the stables.
She was a little late, and knew by this time that is where everyone would be.
She did not have to look very far before encountering Mara, who was busy attempting to wrestle a slime covered teddy bear out of a large, strange looking reptile's mouth.
Mara sighed, realising that the battle was lost, for now at least, and greeted the newcomer, leaving the young dragon to his own devices. She would wash the plushie another day.
Mara spent the better part of an hour introducing Taylor to the staff, and getting her familiarised with the grounds, before finally introducing her to the horse she would be working with.
The chestnut stallion's ears flicked forward and his head popped up over the stall door at the sound of a new voice.
"This is Four" Mara said.
Four snorted and tossed his head as if in agreement.
"You'll be training him in English"
Taylor reached out a hand to let the Nordanner sniff it and smiled as the horse's warm breath tickled her fingers.
"He's lovely. When can I start on him?" she asked.
"No time like the present." Mara replied and the two worked together to get him ready to go.
Four to his credit, and ever the gentleman, stood quietly while they went about their work, knowing full well that all the fuss meant he would soon have a chance to show off, something he relished.
Taylor led the muscular stallion into the outdoor arena, and with the grace of an acrobat, hoisted herself onto the animals back, and began to try him out, nothing too complicated to start, as she just wished to get a feel for him.
The horse moved like clockwork under her, the graceful fluid movements soothing as she rode him around, picking up pace, trying out more difficult things.
A flash of colour caught her eye and she looked up, blushed, and fixed her eyes on the ground near the horse's feet. Jace, one of the stablehands had just come over and sat him self down on the fence. She would never allow her self to admit it...But the Canadian misfit was oddly...Cute.
Unknown to horse, rider, and spectator, another presence was lurking nearby...
Lines took me about a week to do...As i'm a lazy ass..
Also..That's Jace's HAIR not a hat on his head XD

This looks great so far! The only thing I can see is maybe adding different shades of green in the grass, and a less saturated green for the tree leaves. But that all comes with shading! So I cant wait to see the result~!
