soooo my internet went down yesterday so I couldn't do refs. or payments...soooo Zanzibar got a training image and a story since I couldn't complete the White December this year *sobs*
and I think I found a nice sand brush
Story:
Misty finished tacking up Zanzibar and led him to the outdoor arena. It was a gorgeous day outside as the sun shone down on them, making Zanzibar's coat glisten almost to a bronze colour. The Anglo-Arab colt was full of energy as he pranced beside Misty. Misty walked over to the mounting block. Rare she needed one but she was feeling rather ill lately and didn't have much energy to mount regularly. Misty looked up at the horizon and thought about when Dereck would be back. The snow had started melting rather early this year in Spain and Misty was thrilled she didn't have to shovel. She didn't think she'd be able to do it. She was already having a hard enough time cleaning out the stalls. She looked at the ring on her finger and thought maybe she'd go with him next year. Having him away all these winter months was hard on her.
Misty saw Jose walking by and called out to him "Jose! Do you think you can lift the rails back up for me if Zan knocks them down?". Jose quickly replied a yes and went to stand near the arena gate. He could see Misty was feeling off and knew she was too proud to say anything. Jose watched as Zanzibar started, Misty directing him over fence after fence and Zan cleared them all perfectly. As Zanzibar leaped the last triple Jose saw Misty lose consciousness and start sliding from Zan's back. "MISTY!" Jose yelled racing towards Zan, who for once, stood still as his rider fell. Leo raced towards the arena when he heard Jose shout and quickly called 911. By then most of the other staff was running towards the arena as well. By the time the ambulance arrived Leo had untacked Zanzibar and brought him into a stall. Siranni and Kat both went in the ambulance with Misty, while Jose and Leo drove in the car behind. Hugo and Mel offered to stay behind and take care of the animals.
Once at the hospital Jose was filling in the doctor on what had happened when Misty fell. After that the doctor disappeared behind the doors and they were left to wait while tests were carried out. "Someone should try getting a hold of Dereck", Leo said. "I have the number", Siranni said and got up to go outside and make the call.
The phone rang until finally someone answered "Hi my name is Siranni Marea, owner of High Tides Stables. One of my riders, Dereck Solomin is riding the White December with Vidar. Can someone please get a hold of him and send him back right away, his fiance fell off a horse and she's unconscious. The doctors look pretty worried. We'd appreciate if you can find him and send him back so he can be with her", Siranni finished the phone call and walked solemnly back inside the hospital.
"Someone is supposed to try and locate him on the trail and get him the message", Siranni informed everyone. Now all they could do was wait.
A few hours later the doctor came back in. "So a large part of the reason she is feeling ill is due to a pregnancy. The other part we aren't sure yet we still have to wait for a few days for the other test results to come back. We cannot tell you how long she will be out for but her vital signs are stable for the time being", the doctor told them. After some conversation Leo and Kat agreed to go back to the stables and arrange to pick up Siranni and Jose once they were ready. Siranni was determined to stay with Misty until the results of the test came back. Jose brushed a hand through her hair when the others left and gave her a hug. Siranni looked at him "We can't afford to be a rider down Jose", Siranni said, exhausted. "I'll put out some more adds tomorrow and we'll find another staff member to help us out", Jose kissed her and let her lay her head on his shoulder "Everything will work out mi amore, everything will work out", he said as he hugged her one last time before she drifted off to sleep.
