| Courtney- *Puts her foot back.* "I can do Western! Just, not very well." *She tells Fire to canter.* |

| I hear Carol's instruction and I ask Ivory into a smooth canter. I time her strides perfectly and rock gently with her movement. |

| Ashley-I've been riding Western since practically before I could walk, though, *she admonishes* I've done some trick riding in my time, too. *Waves stumbles and Ashley nearly pitches out of the saddle again* Just not in these confounded slippery English saddles, *she mutters, clambering back into place* |

| Courtney-"I was on a vaulting team. For about... hmm, 6 months or so? Then we got to busy with the animals, so i had to give it up." *She shifts her weight.* "I'd do a more advanced trick, but this isn't a vaulting saddle. You see," *She chatters on.* "Vaulting saddles have special holds for your hands. It makes it much easier to do tricks. Now one girl... hmm... Kate, i think it was. She could do tricks WHENEVER, on any broken horse." *She stops, realizing she was going on and on. Then she tilts her head.* "Say, Carol, do you have any vaulting saddles?" |

| I listen to Courtney and Ashley talk about their riding lives as I slow Ivory down to a walk. Ashley is still having troubles with the English saddle and I smile. |

| Ashley-*content to let Courtney do the talking, she keeps guiding Waves around the arena* Yeah, Ms. Carol, could you loan me and Courtney a couple so we can impress each other? |

| Courtney- *Snorts.* "I would learn nothing from you," *she jokes.* "Except... hey, Ashley, could you teach me how to fall?" |

| Ashley-How to fall? *she grins* You have come to the right guru. It's quite simple, really; pitch in any direction, with feeling. *she pats Waves' shoulder* I'd do it myself to demonstrate but I haven't ridden Waves before. I'm not sure if she's reliable enough to perform such a complicated maneuver. |

| Courtney- *Laughs REALLY hard. Fire bucks, and she is to busy laughing and pitches out of the saddle. Fire dodges her and runs straight toward Ashley and Waves.* |
