Kat sniffed and held her hand out as the beagle licked her hand. She set her hand on Legacy's head. If she growled Kat would take her hand away. But if she didn't Kat would begin to softly pet her. As the boy spoke Kat watched the ground and sat on the ground.
"Yes I get what you mean. But how would you find another animal to be as loyal, brave and... and... and..." She said before breaking off to take her hand off of Legacy's head, stand and turn away. When she turned her fingers snapped as they cracked taking the air from the knuckles.
"I only have Buster, my blood bay as a pet. If anything happened to him I would die inside. He wants to be my pet and I understand his needs. I speak horse and a little of dog. But not that much." She said with her back turned.
She turned back and her eyes started to lighten up a bit before she spoke. She still didn't look him in the eyes.
"Do you have a siblings?" She asked giving him something to say before she called her one true horse that wanted to be her pet. And Katrina loved him very much.

"Hmph"
Was the only reply, as Arien laughed softly at her question.
"I hope I don't have any siblings, I don't know of any."
Shaking his head, not really wanting to delve too far into his past,
Arien stood up straight and walked over to her. Even though she
had turned away, he could see that she was still upset, although the
tears didn't seem to be coming anymore.
Cautiously, he stood at her back and wrapped his arms around her for
a moment before letting go and backing away a bit. He wasn't sure why
he had done it, but Arien had never liked to see anyone suffering. |

Ooc: I'm wanting to write rocci instead of kat now.
"Oh. Well that's good I guess." She said giving a small smile.
Kat leaned into him as he hugged her and then pulled away. She turned around and gave a shaky smile. It was the first
human contact she had had after she had run away from camp for some peace and quiet. She looked him in the eyes like she normally would and embraced him into a hug. She wouldn't normally do something like that but she had finally done something other than pet horses. She pulled away and gave another shaky smile.
"I think this place is practically magical. This is accually the place where I was born and have been staying because I fell quite at home in camp." She said quietly.
Now was definatly a magical moment and she knew it. Not only mentally but phisically.

Ooc: lol. That's why I try to keep the names the same. We should make a thread just for Arien and Rocci.
Arien smiled and laughed nervously when she hugged him.
Now that he hadn't been expecting. This girl was
definetely intriguing in her own way.
"So what tribe are you in?"
In earnest Arien tried to avoid all of the tribes, not being very
good at dealing with so many people at once. He always did much
better on his own than with others.

Ooc: smart idea
She stiffled a giggle and did one of those attractive snorts.
"Like I said, I'm part of Secretum." Katrina said cocking her head to the side.
Didn't he listen at all? Well even if he didn't it really wouldn't matter anyway.
"Do you ride horse? I have a nice horse for you to ride if you want." She offered putting her fingers to her lips to whistle for her horses but stopped short.
That was Lilys call. She would have to have Cowboy, her copper dun gelding, be his horse if he wanted too. Cowboy was nice and gentle with new people which helped with new riders. But she would ride Buster, her blood bay stallion, the horse who loved her as much as she loved him.

He laughed and rubbed his head ruefully,
messing up his strange white hair.
Shaking his head he shrugged a little.
"Sorry, my memory is horrible."
Glancing down at Legacy who was now comfortably
lying at his feet then out to the forest, Arien
shook his head.
"No, I've never ridden. But I can try."

ooc: I made a thread for the twi. Its by the shadow lake.
Kat giggled and whistled for the two horses. Busters was a shrill high pitched whistle and Cowboys was the tune to a song she knew. Both horses loped into the clearing and stood beside Katrina. She rubbed their cheeks and gave them each a carrot.
"This golden one here is Cowboy. He is real gentle and calm so he's a good beginner's horse. This dark red one over here is Buster. He is a challenge and I'm still working on training him. He's sort of a knot head." She explained.
Katrina gently put a bridle on Cowboys head and threw the reins to Arien. She did the same to Buster but this time she held his reins. She led cowboy and buster over to Arien and motioned for him to come over by her to get on.
"If you come over here I can help you get on if you need it. And if you don't I still have to help your positioning." She said telling him that he had to get on from over on her side.

Arien nodded as he stepped over to Kat and the horses.
He held his hand out to Cowboy, letting him take in his scent.
He knew enough about animals to know the importance of
the five senses.
With a smile, feeling more confident, Arien brought the reins over
Cowboy's head as he stroked his cheek and murmed to him softly.
Although having never ridden, he knew what to do after having to
raise and take care of horses for his master. Swinging himself
lightly on to Cowboy's back, he straightened his back and relaxed his
wrists, positioning his feet right.
Grinning down at Kat he laughed.
"Well? Come on."
He knew it was a bit odd, having said that he had
never ridden and yet knowing so much about horses. He
would probably tell Kat if she asked, but he wasn't going
to profor the information randomly, the scars were too deep.

"Good. I think you would make a good horse rider someday." She praised.
Kat nickered to the two horses telling them to behave and be good. She rubbed Cowboy's nose and pet Busters cheek before putting the reins over Busters head and swiftly jumping on.
"You seem to know what to do but I trained these guys different. If you squeze him with your right leg he will got left, left goes right, sit back he slows down, sit forward he goes faster. Squeze him with both you legs he wil go faster. Got It? We'll Kinda sorta?" She asked giving him a genuine crest white smile.
Katrina sat forward, backward, used her left leg, right both and demostraighted how they worked. She pulled Buster up to Cowboy motioning him to practice if he needed.
"Its like walking almost. The more you practice the better you get and the better you can 'walk'" She said gently not to scare the horses.
