I carefully yet quickly hopped out of my parents large silver Pick-up truck as it finally stopped moving and settled into the ever grand Kingslee Academy parking lot. My feet made a soft thumping sound as they both connected with the ground beneath me. Once out of the truck I wandered around the side to the back to where the trailer was hooked up and opened it up then I proceeded to lead Raven my beautiful, well in my opinion 16.1 hand black arabian mare out of the trailer that had carried her from my parents small stables to Kingslee Academy. I could feel the gazes of a group of guys and girls watching my as I unload my mare from the trailer. Raven was tacked up in her signature Blueberry blue traveling gear with: A blueberry blue traveling blanket, leg wraps, halter and lead line and ear covers. I took a deep breath to calm my self and patted Raven's shoulder before hugging my parents swiftly before waving and leading Raven towards the large stables. Raven snorted and threw up her head and perked her ears at the new sights and smells around her. I noted with a nagging sense of worry that the guys and girls that had been watching me by the car park were now following me and Raven with their gazes pinned on me and Raven intently. I slowed to a stopped once I found Ravens new stall I put Raven into her new stall before I quickly pulled off the 16.1 hand arabian mare's halter, leg wraps and blanket before stepping out of stall noting with surprise that her buckets were stocked with food and water already. I wandered into the tack room where Raven's tack rack and box was set up and put away Raven's tack. I turned my head as someone else entered the Tack Room behind me.

   Walking through the empty stables,I pulled my beach-blonde hair, in it's ringlets way. I wore,a designer top from Paris and Barney's new jeans. I was stain-free. My boots,crunched against left-over hay,as I walked through the stables. I already put Midnight in one of the field pens and went to explore the stable,for the millionth time again. It was quiet and I saw a few guys smile at me and we exchanged small talk. Girls walked up to me,knowing when I was alone,I was a much-better person. I smiled and waved at them. I tucked a piece of my blonde hair and headed for the Tack Room. I saw a trailer and smiled. "New comers,once again." I muttered to myself and pushed open the Tack Room's double doors. It was elegant and showed it's luxurious money,the school spent. I smiled and reached for Midnight's tack. my boots,tapped against the hard floor and I ignored the girl,who stood looking at me. I signed deeply and picked up,Midnight;s saddle.

I gave the girl a nervous smile as I finished putting my extra, boots and helmets away into my large dark mahogany trunk and rifled carefully through everything in it to make sure it was all safe and sound. I gave her another nervous smile and brushed a stray strand of blonde behind my ear.
I heard Raven's whinnies and nickers coming from out in the aisle where she was safely tuck away stall her cries were probably meant to greet the other horses around her and possibly to let me know she was still around but I couldn't help but have the urge to run and make sure she was ok I had no idea what kind of people could be here at Kingslee Academy.
I bit my lip and brushed the same stray strand of blonde hair behind my ear as it fluttered into my face because of the slight breeze caused by the open door and one of the open windows. I glanced at my tack noting with relief that all of my saddles, bridles and saddle pads, leg wraps, blankets and ear covers were tucked away safely before I made sure the Saddle pads and Leg wraps and ear covers were color coded with Raven's red show saddle pad, leg wraps and ear covers at the very bottom beside her red bead studded show bridle and her Bright blue berry blue traveling gear at the very top it being the most recently used item of choice.

I looked at her and smiled. My tack was from Europe and chosen,amazing. I ran my fingers over Midnight's priceless show stuff and smiled. everything was amazing. I stuck my foot,in on of the stir-ups and let myself up. I stood there, with myself in the air,my balance depending on myself. I hopped down and looked outside. It was cool,like summer-time,but this year,everyone bustled around for finals. I grabbed Midnight's studded black and purple tack-box. I brushed a strand of hair,away from my eye,as the stable door opened from the other end,of the stables. I turned around, looking at the girl. I flashed her my movie-star smile and walked up to her. "Hey,I'm Chloe,so I'm assuming you new." The sentence wasn't a question. I knew everybody here on campus,so I haven't seen her before.

I watched the girl with interest as she hoisted herself up against one of her fancy expensive looking saddles in fact everything about the girl looked expensive from her clothes to her tack and she hung there for a moment suspended in the air leaning against one of her saddles before hopping down onto solid ground again and grabbing her purple and black studded tack box I grimaced at the color I wasn't a huge fan of the color purple. I blushed as I realized I just been staring her for some time now.
I gave her tentative smile as I responded to her, "Yeah i'm new I guess you can guess that already and nice to meet you Chloe i'm Bridget Redwood I got here like 5 minutes ago this place is so big! and beautiful" I blushed as I realized I just been rambling on it was one of my more unfortunate nervous habits along with having my hands and knees shake violently.
I adjusted one of the halters and bridles on the wall before sitting on my tack box.

I smiled. I sat beside her,on her tack box. "My dad's the headmaster and all,but I'm not excited about being the daughter of it,all." I said,waving my hand,ignoring the thought away. I didn't really wanted to know her 'whole name" and all,but she seemed nice by the way. "So,you have a horse of your own,not a school one." I said, flatly. I smirked and opened the tack box. Combs,brushes,and etc. were all priceless. I fingered one of the brushes that were already, cleaned,not s speck of horse hair in sight. I smiled and got up from the Bridget's tack box. I headed for the double-door,but then I stopped. I smiled. I turned around. "So,could yo show me your horse's stall,I could meet you there." I smiled and got a nod from her.

I blinked and subconsciously shifted to make room for Chloe as she sat down on top of my tack box I gave her a nervous smile and said, "Wow! that must be cool having your dad as the the principal my parents are Ceo's at two different Actuary companies and Yeah i have my own horse her name's Midnight Raven but I call her Raven and sure" I blushed at how much I was talking but I got and followed her out the double doors back into the aisle way of the barn.
I made a b-line for Raven's stall having memorized the route on the way to the Tack room. I stopped at Raven't stall and patted her silky black nose as she poke her nose out between the bars of her stall to see me she nickered softly to me in greeting. I smiled and said, "hey there pretty girl what do you think of this place so far like it? I like it a lot it's so big and fancy looking and so far everyone i've met has been super duper nice" I stopped talking and glanced around for Chloe suddenly very embarrassed to be talking to Raven.

"Sure." I carried,Midnight's tack box and stepped out of the Stables. The cool wind,brushed against my and I smiled. I heard hoof-beats and looked up to see,Midnight cantering toward me. I giggled and grabbed his reins. "Woooo." I tugged on the reins and smiled. "Thanks Mike." He blushed and disappeared. I smiled and pulled her,back in the stables. I could smell, fresh hay-bales and horses. Midnight nudged my pocket. "Sure,you found "your" treat." I dipped into my right pocket and pulled out a mint treat. Midnight instanly nibbled it out of my hand. I laughed. His whiskers,tickled my palm,as Midnight ate the treat. I turned toward,down a hall,knowing I've been here before. Midnight looked up and his eyes shimmered. I examined his body. His body was shining,cleanly,like on the magazine,me and Midnight did for the Teen Rider. I smiled. I looked up to see Bridget and Raven. Midnight tugged,on the reins,eager to meet his new friend. I smiled and pulled him in the direction of them. "Hey." I smiled and cocked a hip.

I looked up quickly as I heard the distinctive sound of a horse cantering up the pathway towards the stables just in time to see a horse cantering towards Chloe from the way she reacted to seeing him I figured that they must her horse. I smiled to myself and and leaned against Raven's stall wall and watched Chloe and her horse as they made their way over. I Smiled and said, "Hey, This here is Raven she's being a bit shy because of all the new sights and smells aren't you girly? and is he yours? he's beautiful" I rubbed Raven's nose as she retreated into her stall watching the two riders and Midnight talk with bright eyes and ears that were constantly flicking every which direction as she took in the noises around her with mild interest.

I smiled. "His name is Midnight". I smiled. "Thanks." I kissed Midnight on the muzzle and reached to pat,Raven on the head. "He's beautiful too." I smiled. People passed by,looking at me,with a newbie. Everyone was in shock,like they never saw like myself. I smiled and turned back to Bridget.

I smiled back at the them and said, "That's a pretty name what breed is he? and Thanks she is isn't she" I smiled proudly at my 16.1 hand arabian mare as she seeming to have recovered her courage poked her head as far out of her stall as she possibly could and gave Midnight a long tentative sniff before looking at me and Chloe.
I glanced around quickly as a few people wandered by they were all giving me and Chloe strangle looks I wondered why they were giving us such strange looks maybe it was because this girl Chloe was some kind of Queen Bee which would not be good for her considering my dislike for girls who considered themselves to be Queen Bee's as I found them all to be snobs and to be very annoying.

I looked at people,who me and Bridget strange looks. I signed deeply. "Ignore them,they just want a look at you." I said,fanning the thought away. I signed deeply and looked at Bridget,we could go on the trails. I found one,that dad,reserved for me and some other friends." I said,as I threw on Midnight's gleaming white saddle,that made him gleam. Midnight shook his head,knowing we were going on the trails. I looked at Bridget waiting for answer.

I smiled and said, "Sure! sounds fun let me go get Raven tacked up" I went and grabbed Raven's tack and rested in a ridge near a pair of cross ties. I lead Raven out of her stall and to the cross ties the mare stood still and relaxed as I racked her up starting with light orange leg wraps i'd decided orange with be the color she wore when were were having trail rides. I then put on her light orange colored saddle pad and black saddle it had been a going away gift from my adopted brother Max.
I then switched her halter for her black bridle with orange gems studded into the Nose and Headbands. I smiled adjust Raven's stirrups and checked her girth before unclipping the cross ties and leading her back to where Chloe and Midnight where and said, "i'm ready whenever you are" I smiled and did a tiny itty bitty bounce of excitement at the prospect of going on a trail ride

I smiled and watched Bridget. I swung my leg over Midnight's back,in a model motion and sat still. I didn't need a steeping-stool. "Hey,Chloe. Show off." A couple of girls passed me and smiled. I waved at them,smiling. Everyone knew,I was awesome,when I was alone. "Let's go!" I squeezed my legs against,Midnight and we trotted out of the Stables. I smiled,glad that I was out,with fresh out,with my boy. I smiled and let,Midnight trot freely. I turned around and saw Bridget catching up. I turned around and slowed,Midnight. I saw one of Dad's guards,standing at the forbidden trail,with girls trying to get in. "They with you?" He asked me,pointing to the girls,that looked at me,eager to the trail. I shook my head. "Nope." Me and Bridget passed through the guard and the trail went alive with animals. "I've been trying to talk to dad,about opening this trail up,but he said,it's dangerous because of paparazzi. They keep trying to get pictures of Britney Spear's daughter on trails,but this school is camera-everywhere except bathrooms." I said,blushing. I signed deeply and shook my head. I breathed in the fresh-air and felt free from everything.

I carefully swung myself up into Raven's saddle after a few tries I wasn't too good with ground mounting but I was getting better the more I practiced. I sighed as i noticed Chloe was quite a ways ahead of me already so I spurred Raven forward giving her a tap with my black riding crop when she ignored my encouragements. The mare shot forwards with a quick burst of sped but I pulled her into a nice fast collected trot and slowed once I got caught up with Chloe and Midnight.
I looked around with interest as we passed a security guard blocking the trail from the random passerby's or fan girls like the crowd waiting excitedly to see if they could follow Chloe and me into the trails. I couldn't help but snicker at the disappointed groans and sighs as they guard sent the crowd of girls away. I shrugged and said, "It must be lonely though being on the trail by yourself don't you ever want to go with someone else?"
