Liv Liv would rear up scaring the guy holding her lead rope she didn't like this she wanted to go back home "Easy girl relax we won't hurt you" he said to Liv she turned her big head in his direction and snorted she let the man lead her into a huge barn with many stalls she was really scared never in her life had she thought someone would try and steal her he put her in a big box stall and took off the halter and lead rope "you be a good girl now no escaping" he said to Liv before locking the stall and walking away
Drift Drift would rear up and fight the man holding his lead rope there was no way he would let a stranger lead him "Just blindfold him before he catches the attention of someone we don't need poking around" a voice said Drift could feel a cloth go over his eyes and now he had no choice but to trust the man he was put into a small stall with barely enough room to turn in any direction the man removed the blindfold and quickly locked his stall "Yeah you better run" he neighed to the man as he quickly disappered
Gale Gale would walk down the trailer ramp and let the lady lead her she was young and trusting so getting her into a stall in the barn was no promblem however she became very jumpy once the lady left "Who are you..where are we" she said nervously her hoof scraping the bedding on the stall floor she was too scared and nervous to be calm

Ava was not sure where she was as she backed back onto the trailer in fear. The whites of her eyes showed as she tried to get away from the man that was trying to get her off the trailer. But Ava knew this was not her home. "Let me go!" She screamed as she reared in fear not understanding what was going on. "I want to go home!" The man pulled on her lead rope as he tried to get the American Drum Horse mare to move forward. But Ava did not want to move whatsoever. Then Ava felt someone slap the back of her rump hard with a riding crop which caused her to leap forward. The man leading her had to jump out of the way as the draft horse ran down the isle of the stalls.
"Close the doors!" a man yelled as he chased after Ava, lead rope in hand.
Ava slid to a stop as the doors to the barn were slammed shut in front of her. She was trapped. She spun around as fast as she could and headed for the other direction. But like the first set of doors, these too were locked shut. Ava's heart sank as her means of escape had dwindled. She felt a rope fly around her neck as the men pulled her into a stall. Again, Ava reared in fear. She whipped around and tried to buck at one of the men, but was unsuccessful as the door was slammed shut, locking her into the stall. Ava tried pawing at the door, but it would not open. She had no choice but to pace the stall nervously.

Chaos Chaos turned sharply against her lead rope and kicked out using her body to block the strange people from her foal. She dug her feet into the ground and refused to load bickering loudly for reassurance. She lunged forwards with her foal as a whip landed on her rump. "She'll calm down once she gets in. Keep her with the foal and we are good" A man said her voice deep and gruff. She turned her head towards the others shifting nervously. She pulled against the cross ties and nuzzled her colt. "Where is sylvie!? What's going on!" She demanded as she banged her head on the roof.

Liv "Hey relax young one you can hurt yourself by panicking" Liv said to the nervous percheron she couldn't help but look at the other mares a pretty drum horse and a mare with a foal her head just fit over the stall "Hello i'm Liv who are you ladies" she said trying to be polite even though she was nervous herself
Drift Drift would ram his stall door he wasn't going to be kept in a strange place he stopped as a man came towards him he was a elderly man he seemed much kinder then the man that lead him into his current stall "Easy boy hmm maybe if I give you some company you will stop" he said as he brought Drift to a stall just across a tall shire mare he locked the stall door and left
Gale "M--My name's Gale like the wind storm" she said feeling somewhat less nervous she raised her head and looked in the direction where Liv was a flaxen chestnut stallion was being lead towards them by a elderly man "Who's that I havn't seen a breed like him before" she said to the other mares he was kinda handsome looking there was streagth in his muscles

Chaos "Im chaos, and this is riot" ah said stomping her hoof and looking at the other mare. She tried to rear as a man with a sense of danger walked past. "All clear, we have most of em" he said before looking at the mare and her foal. "Your a cute thing" he reached out for the foal and chaos bit his hand her ears pinned. "Stay away!" She snickered tossing her head up.

Ava did not understand why she was here. She knew that her owner had a western pleasure show coming up with her soon. But Sorya never had her transported anywhere. She always drove Ava herself. So, it was strange to be handled by someone else that she did not know. And to be hit by a whip? Sorya would never do such a thing! She always handled her horses with such care and love. When she heard the sound of a horse asking her what her name was, she paced back to the door to see who was talking to her. It was a black shire mare. Placing her head over the door, Ava decided to introduce herself. "I am Ava. Do you know where my owner is? She said we had a western pleasure show coming up. This place does not look like a place to hold a show." She could see a group of men talking and pointing her way.
"That mare could get us a lot of money. Her markings are what caught my eye. I am sure she is used as a show horse," one of the men announced as he looked at Ava.

Chaos She pricked her ears towards the men pointing at her. "People will bay big bucks for that mare and colt. The mare is big,strong and young and the colt is strong and flashy." One of the men pointed out after snickering at her. She tossed her head and nuzzled her colt her eyes wide and nervous

Liv Liv would turn her ears to catch one of man talking about her "She has a great back I know a buddy of mine who is looking for a draft to pull carriages" the man said there was no way she would ever pull a carriage for a stranger she pinned her ears and stamped the ground with one of her big hooves all she wanted was to go back to her owner and her freinds
Drift Drift would listen to another man talk about him "this boy would make a good fighter ..maybe send him off to do stallion fights" the man said he would rear up the whites of his eyes showing no way would they make him fight a stallion for something so stupid he turned towards the percheron "You want to know my breed lady I am a Breton" he said to the percheron mare in a french english accent
Gale Gale would look nervously at the lady "This one might make a good dressage horse she looks very graceful" the lady said she turned to face Gale and gently pet her Gale shied away and avoided the woman's touch "Whoa Liv calm down who knows what these people are capable of" Gale warned the big black shire mare as she snorted at the lady "I like this one she is stubborn may I have your permisson to take her out back to the ring" the lady asked well still trying to win Gale's trust

Chaos "Let the mare and her foal into the corral for a bit, the stalls to small for the colt to nurse. I wish I could take them home, she would make a great carriage horse." A lady said leading the nervous mare into a corral. She sprinted around bickering for the others. The men flashed the woman disapprovaling looks as the colt bucked and kicked.

"Does anyone know where we are and what these humans want with us?" Ava asked in her Texas accent as she looked around at all the humans. She backed away as a woman stopped by her stall for a moment to drop some hay off and then swiftly left. Ava did not feel like eating as she began to circle around in her stall. She missed the Texas sun that met her everyday as she stood in her pasture under the oak tree that was in her pasture. She missed taking rides to the creek and lake on the property or rides though the Texas Hill Country with her owner. Even though Ava was a show horse, Sorya treated each horse as if they were a member of her family. She missed her friends back at the stables. Some were boarders while some permanent residents and owned by Sorya. She would run in the pasture with her friends, or graze under the great oak tree. Ava's heart sank even more as she thought about home. "What is going to happen to us? My owner would never sell me. I was the first foal born at my home. My owner thinks I am special as we have a bond."

The mare, who had been herded back into her stall, nickered, " I dont know, I was due to go to Texas for breeding with the worlds top stud!" She snorted her eyes wide as she looked around.

Liv "I was on my way to a show when they took me" Liv said shaking her head and mane she looked at Gale there was something not right about that lady Gale didn't look graceful and she was positive Gale couldn't be a dressage horse "Gale if I were you I wouldn't trust that lady something is off about her" she said turning to look in Gale's direction
Drift Drift would look at the big shire mare she seemed wise and smart "I forgot to introduce myself i'm Drift" he said to the other mares trying to be polite he shifted around in his stall trying to scratch a itch on one of his shoulders he bore a scar from him trying to jump a fence as a young colt
Gale Gale would rear up as the lady tried to put a bridle on her "Whoa easy girl I won't hurt you" the lady said she backed away with tears in her eyes as a tall man with a booming voice started to walk towards her "Lucinda what have I told you about trying to ride the auction horses" he said to the lady who must be Lucinda the lady was kind Gale kind of felt bad for her "She is really pretty father oh you must spare her for me" Lucinda said

"Auction?!" Ava exclaimed as she started to panic. Her owner would never put her in an auction! Ava remembered when she was born, the first human that she had seen was her owner, Sorya. Then her mother, a black gypsy mare named Lilly. Ava was her mother's first drum horse foal. She was bred to a pretty Clydesdale stallion who was a top producer in Texas. Ava began to rear and kick at her stall as she tried to get out. She could not be sold! She was promised never to be sold! "My owner would never sell me! Please! Let me out!" Ava let out a scream as she continued to kick at the stall door. The stall door suddenly burst open with a mighty kick as the wood was poorly taken care of. Finally! A means of escape! Ava decided to bolt from her stall and try to find any means of exit. Men and women scrambled as they chased after the Drum Horse mare. But like before, all doors were locked tight. Her means of escape was dashed. A rope flew over her neck before Ava knew what was going on. The men began to pull Ava towards another stall that was next to her old one.
"Darn horse! Someone get a blanket over her eyes!" a man with storm colored eyes announced. He had a 5 o'clock shadow that said he did not care about his appearance. His clothes looked slept in and wrinkled, and his cowboy hat was speckled in mud. He looked angry as if he did not care about anyone but himself. He tightened the rope that had been thrown around her legs so that she fell to the ground. "I swear if any of you put a mark on any of these horses, you will pay for it! Now, get this horse in the box!"
A towel was placed over her eyes, shutting out the world around her. Once she was somewhat calm, the humans allowed for her to stand and backed her into the stall. The towel was removed from her eyes as the stall door was slammed shut in front of her.

The mare, startled at the commotion reared and kicked out. Her eyes huge she screamed and kicked her door again. A man put a rope over her front leg and pulled hard. She fell to the ground as a rag was tied to her eyes. "Tie a rag around all the adult horses eyes!" One man shouted. She tried to get up but the rope pulled hard and she fell to her knees. She felt the trailer start to move. Her colt panicked and nickered and slammed his tiny hooves against the door. She felt him fall against her side. She pinned her ears and tried to find whoever has hurt her baby.
