Yay! A training image! :D

Carter is training a moon horse, woo. At first he doesnt know what to think, but now he knows that they are, well, horses.


Story

background


After Carter and Leonie seperate ways from talking about the upcoming competition, Carter runs into Delphine Black again. She is more than happy to talk about how Leonie is a great person and she thinks they could be great friends. She rambles more about Leonie and how she is a good trainer, also commenting on how he is a good trainer as well. Carter states that he had apologized to Leonie and continues to put Vita away.

He starts to grab Donnecha, but realizes that she is a moon horse and he honestly knows nothing about moon horses. He goes on a search to talk to someone about her, finding Leonie and her boyfriend Nathann. Nathann becomes defensive about his girlfriend and tries to intimidate Carter, although Carter is not impressed. Leonie tells Nathann to go away, to which he does, and Carter talks to her about moon horses. Leonie ends up apologizing to Carter about how she reacted the first time they met, and Carter forgives her, but rushes on his way to continue his training.

Later, after talking with Michel and tacking up the mare, he goes outside to start working, but overhears Leonie and Nathann talking. Nathann is saying that Leonie is spending too much time with Carter and he is pretty much jealous (without actually stating that he is jealous). He says very hurtful things and causing Leonie to cry. Carter continues on his way without saying anything, as if not to get in the middle of the fight.

Story
Carter first started to lunge the mare, but after a few good rounds, he realized she was not going to do anything wrong. He carefully climbed on the mare, in case she were to spook. He took the mare into a nice trot, happy with the training that she already knew. 

He wasn't sure how much Donnecha knew or how long it's been since she was trained, but the mare was fairly easy in accepting his cues. Carter jogged her around the dressage arena, mind wandering and thinking about what happened to Leonie to make her cry like that. He thought about the way Nathan treated her, bringing up a touchy subject, and the blond italian started to get angry. Donnecha reacted to the new emotion by started to canter, ears pinned. 

Carter went back into reality, focusing again on the horse. He asked her to collect her head, smiling whens he did it. Pushing Donnecha forward into the bit, she took to the level one of dressage very well. She agreed on the cues, and didn't raise any fuss. 

Rain was starting to come down by the time the mare was sweaty, and Carter started to walk her out. It didn't take long for his mind to wander again. After a few minutes of walking Donnecha out, it was already pouring rain. Carter jumped off and walked the soaked mare inside the barn to detack her and wash the sweat off. 

From the moment the two walked into the barn, tention could be felt everywhere. Carter saw Michel, and pulled aside to talk to him. 

"She did really well, I think she's going to take to the other levels of dressage quickly," the blond said in a heavy italian accent. 

"That's great," Michel said, obviously distant. "Hopefully you two will make a great team for shows," he smiled halfheartedly. 

Carter nodded back as a responce before continuing down to Donnecha's stall.
