Justin:
"ready get set GO!" i yelled and blasted off on Eagle to run the course. we cleared every jump again and the last three ferns came up. this time Eagle never even touched them. we landed the last jump and ran across the finish line. i slowed him to a stop. "you really are an eagle's spirit." i said patting him on the neck as we walked over to Trill. "how did i do?"

Trillium:
i whooped. "5:19! you shaved off more than a third of a second!" which could determine first or second place, since i assumed that Milly was great, as well. "that was an awesome run.... you and eagle just about flew."

"thanks, but it wasnt me its all about the horse." i said patting Eagle's neck. "so how about we jog over to Sterling's so u could show me that routine of yours." i asked nudging Eagle into a slow walk.

"sure!" i tapped my heels to Rascal's sides, and we slid into a trot. bt, then, remembering, i pulled him up short. "just a precaution," i explained, putting on my black wig, dark-red lipstick, pale face pwder, and tinted sunglasses. "i hear Milto's building a steeplechase track, and if he comes over to tell Katie about it, i'm in hot water over my head."

"i didnt know Mr. Berryhill was building a steeplechase track. why would he have to talk to Katie about it anyway?" i said to Trill watching her put on her disguise.

i snickered. "personally, i think he's developed a little crush. they're having a board meeting tomorrow about what judges to get, what trophy maker to buy from, and all that stuff. he had me help him pick out what to wear for it!" snort. my cousin is such a hypocrite.

"if Mr. Berryhill has a crush on Katie then maybe the two barns will combine. maybe even Katie can talk Mr. Berryhill into letting you ride." i said shrugging my shoulders.

Trillium:
i set Rascal off at a leisurely pace on the wide trail, scooching over so that Justin could ride next to me. "We'll see if the family's rivalry is more powerful that his true feelings..." i said in a dramatic, romance-novel voice. "anyway, it's not really milton that doesn't want me to ride- it's my parents. Milt-o's just humoring their wishes." but enough talk about me, i seemed quite boring thinking about it. "race ya to Sterling!" i hollered, spurring Rascal into a gallop.

"aww..." i said then saw Trill blasted off the trail at a gallop on Rascal. he really listened toher and that was a shocker. Rascal barely listened to anyone but me, well sometimes he listened to me. i squeezed Eagle into a gallop and caught up to her quickly. "you know you and Rascal work together perfectly together. he doesnt really listen to me that much." i said to her, as we ran through the woods.

"that's a complement! the only other horse i've ever ridden is Pandora, but she's used to having a bunch of different riders!" i said, giving Rascal a pat.

"really, cus you are a naturally on a horse especially Rascal. if you want whenever Francy wants to go for a ride you can ride Rascal." i said to Trill as we flew down the trails. a giant dust cloud was down the trail and no one would look through the trail to see us. we galloped on and on until Sterlings came into view. "and heres the final stretch Rascal and Eagle are neck and neck it looks like anyone could win this race. Eagle's pulling ahead and Rascal keeps up with Eagle." i announced like a racetrack announcer.

i had trouble staying in the saddle, such was my laughter. "Francy?!" i sputtered mirthfully. "Francy Blade has quite the ring to it! but she'll ride him gladly! and Rascal bounds right up next to Eagle who will win this harrowing rade?" i cried, wig streaming out behind me.

Justin:
i laughed. "and it looks like it will be a tie between Rascal and Eagle. there a quarter away from the stables and its a tie!" i yelled. i laughed and slowed Eagle to a stop. "so Francy do you want to switch horses or do dressage on Rascal?" i asked as we walked our horses into the stable together.

"I'd have to trade saddles on him, if Rascal does plough reining and piaffes," i said, giving the sporty appaloosa an appraising look. he looked much to tough and western to prance around the arena on his tiptoes. "maybe i should go and get Dora."
