I tilt my head " whhy wouldn't I want to meet him?" I ask amittle confused as I pet chestnut but keep looking over in the direction of deep silence's stall

[Man O' War Lover]

"He has a horable temper very bad bitter and kicke's and reaches for you when you pass your stall." I say. "I don't even realy like him he does not want anything to do with any one." I say patting Chestnut Fire-

I look at the colt and sigh" I just hate the thought of a young horse having a bad temper I mean someone has to work with him" I say as I look at ray

[Man O' War Lover]

"Oh we work with him he just need's to be draged out of his stall to be groomed tied in chain cross ties so he does not brake theme, we have to put with feed bucket on the ground instead of hanging it up and that's hust when he wakes up." I sigh you have no idea what it's like for groom's to quite work and then me having to hide when he not looking then run for his stall open the door that's when he see's me and tries to bite and I put his bucket down and leave for him to be alone." I thought of the day when it would come to braking him. Thank god he was only 8 month's just a baby but already the devil.

I think so a second " has he been groomed yet today?..if not id like to try something with him my grandmother and mother taught" I say I walk over to his stall " back home I was the one to train the bad tempered horses because I had so much patience for them"

[Man O' War Lover]

"Yeah we still tak good care of all of our horses." I said "But I'm not allowed to let even staff in his stall but our trainer and his well he use to have groom." I said following her to his stall. Deep Silence had his ear's pined back and his hunches pressed agianst the stall wall. "We woprk with him he just drives me nut's." I say as he watches us-"You don't want to go in there really-

[redhead14]

Maria
I look at him with determination in my eyes " at least let me try and see what I can do to at least make him alittle bit enjoyable to be around for everyone" I say as I look from him to the colt

[Man O' War Lover]

"Fine but if he does somthing just leave the work with him to Danny he's the one working with him." I said watching as the colt stood huddled now by the stall's corner-

[redhead14]

Maria
" thank you" I say and give him a quick hug before I slowly make my way into deep silence's stall." Hey boy don't be afriad I won't hurt you" I say as I go to the middle of his stall and throw a pepermint towards him and sit down not making eye contact seeing what he'd do

[Man O' War Lover]

I went to the stall quickly "Hay Maria that's not such a good-but I didn't get to finish the colt was onto her his teath bare and mouth wide open his ear's pined as he went for her. I quickly grabed her hand to pull her up and pulled her out of the stall shuting the stall door in the yearling face. It was not the smart'st thing but he just didn't like well people. He walked around his stall nostril's flaring and eye's wild and bright "He get's it from his sire I guess and wont let any one get near him." The colt kicked out but stopped and became quiet agian-

maria
before i knew what was happening ray had me tight against his chest and out of the stall. i look into his eyes not knowing what to say so i stay quite than as a few minutes pass i say " thanks" as i gently pull out of his embrace

[Man O' War Lover]

I moved away real quick "Sorry I shouldn't have let any one in, I'm not sapouse to." I said thinking of what my father would say he found out. The colt had they eye's and instinct of a killer. I said nothing looking into the stall "We should leav him alone." I said as he went back to stand in the corner of his stall-

[redhead14]

maria
"no its not your fault it was mine" i say as i rub my arm and look at him " i wanted to go in there adn i didnt take in to consideration what you tryd to tell me"

[Man O' War Lover]

"No it's fine. Let's go to the farm house and get that arm of your's looked at to." As we made our way out of the barn Deep Silnce moved slowly toured the peperment and ate it-

[redhead14]

maria
"its nothing really ill be fine" i say as i rub my as we head up to the farm house

[Man O' War Lover]

It's a good thing he didn't bite you he could have done." I said as we walked into the house. The kitchen was empty and I went to wet down a cloth for her arm ":Sorry I grabed you like that he does that, the groom's say he's real smart so he wait's some times he doesn't." I said turning unfolding the cramed together cloth.

[redhead14]

maria
" who did you say was his sire again?" i ask as i sit down and start to think " ive never know a horse to have such a bad temper for no apparent reason like he has" i say thinking out loud as i stare out the window in deep thought about how the help the little guy instead of worring about my own life

[Man O' War Lover]

"By Escape Me out of Forever Silence." I said handing her the cloth. "Nothing silent about him though. He's just a puzzle with jaged edges." I said siting down with her.

[redhead14]

Maria
" thanks" I say snapping out of my deep thing " if he's this mean know I just can imagen what hell be like when he's full grown are you going to geld him?" I ask. I didn't like having the geld horses but if it was bad then it had to be done

[Man O' War Lover]

No we don't geld our horses hear unless the horse has no good blood lines and makes to big trouble of himself. Escape Me was half brother to Magic Man they had the same sire." I exsplaned Mr. Prospector was good horse but the dam's where very tempernmentle. Do you want somthing to drink?" I asked-

[redhead14]

Maria
" that's how my grandfather doesn on his farm" I say as I look at him " sure" I say I'm reply to his question

[Man O' War Lover]

"I went to the fridge and said we don't have any thing like pop or that we only have ice tea. That's all my dad likes and I'm catching it." I filled two glasses and placed one infront of her and sat down wraping my hand's around the cool glass. "So why do you travel don't you miss home?"

[redhead14]

Maria
I smile at his question as he sits down. " I get asked that a lot" I say with a laugh as I take a sip of my ice tea " my grandmother always told me if I was a horse I would be a mix between an arabian and a throughbred, I grew up and horses my whole life..horses and horseracing is my life. Don't get me wrong I love my home my grabdparents and parents all live there and its always beautifull there. But I just had a feeling I wasn't ment to stay there until I inhertited it from my family. I wanted to make a name for my self and I'm half way there" I stop and look down smiling " I'm known as the queen of ice out on the track cause nothing scares me when I'm out there and I rarely lose"

[Man O' War Lover]

I smiled "Soun'd slike Gorge Wolf who rode seabiscut but his dad wa sa stage coatch driver and his mom rode sercus pony's. I'm a ok jockey but not as good as my grandafther was. He died in a horse race at a older age 40 or so dad was in his twenty's." I said loking down at the table. "He told me he was born with horses he would die with horses." I proped my chin on my hand as looked out the window. "I wonder if Deep Silence has calmed down a bit?" "what horses have you rode?"

[redhead14]

Maria
I smile remeber the horses I've rode " I've ridden rags to riches, big brown, a few foals out of seattle slew and northern dancer uhm a colt named firenice a filly out of a.p indy, afleet alex you name them I've ridden them" I say with a smile
