Lucky Stars Horse Ranch

Paint turned down a deer path that no one tookand jumped over a log and kept running. she perked her ears up and kept running.

"No...." Scarlet replied sadly. "I'll help you catch her though!" She brightened.

Paint jumped over another log and stopped when she was on a drop off. she looked down over it and saw a river. She was about 5ft above the river. She went down a trail to the river and wlaked into it. She stopped but kept going.

Will shrugged and ran after Paint. He whisled loudly, and smiled when he heard hooves behind him. He slowed down slightly and swung himself onto Shooter. "That's my boy." he smiled as he urged him after Paint.

Shooter jumped over logs and dodged bushes as he flew after Paint. He whinnied to her and snorted.

Paint walked to the middle of the river when she cahnged her mind about crossing. She water was up to her chest but it was too late. She turned around and one of her hoofs sliped and she fell the river taking her. She kept her head above water and neighed.

Scarlet urged Phantom into a gallop, keeping her flying along after Will. She jumped effortlessly, and followed the river, keeping up with Paint and the current.

Will urged Shooter into the river. He went after Paint and looked at her.

Shooter whinnied loudly. He snorted and swam after Paint, slipping on rocks a few times.

Will reached down to Paint as they got close. He sighed and tried to reach her.

Paint tried slipping to her father and Will but went under. She popped up agian and snorted Her ears where back and she was freezing. she tried swiming agian but was getting tired.

Phantom galloped faster, and then surged into the water, ahead of Paint. She braced herself as best as she could against the water, waiting for Paint to pass. She made her way up a bit, and grabbed Paint by the mane, hanging onto her.

Paint neighed agian and tried getting her grip on the rocks but still couldnt.

Will smiled at Phantom. He reached down more and lifted Paint out of the water. He rested her on Shooter's back and let out a long sigh.

Shooter swam against the current to get back to land. He snorteed and whinnied a thank you to Phantom.

Paint snorted and started shaking. she let her head drop and she snorted again.

Phantom swam back to the land, and jumped up, happy to be on solid ground. She snorted, and nodded, basically saying, "Anytime."

Paint neighed a thank you to Phantom.

[ummm ILH Shooter, Paint, Will, Scarlet, and Phantom are all on a trail so they wouldn't hear that]

Paint struggled to get down and go running so she could warm up but ouldnt because she was on her fathers back!!

"Sorry." Will laughed. He placed Paint back on the ground and urged Shooter back towards the stables.

Shooter yawned and walked back to the stables. He shook his mane and snorted.

Phantom nickered back to the foal, and reared. She came down gently, and trotted over to Shooter and Will.

Paint stayed in the woods. She layed down and put her head down. she snorted and got up. she shook her coat and walked slowly behind them.

Will smiled at Phantom and looked at Paint. He urged Shooter into a slightly faster walk and sighed.

Paint perked her ears up and watched Will and shooter. She put her head down and kept walking slowly. She felt like they didnt want ehr near. she snorted and kept walking.

Will slowed Shooter so he was walking beside Paint. "Come on." he smiled down at Paint.

Scarlet laughed gently, and and urged Phantom faster.
