Dusty shook her head and walked over to the small grey pony, gently rubbing circles on her rump. She spoke quietly to the groom who nodded and handed her the reigns. She lead the small horse over to where Flanna stood. "Wanna give me a leg?" she asked, throwing the reigns over the horses head.
(( *sighs* pretned thats Dusty....))

Flanna shrugged. "As long as I dont get in trouble, fine." She gave Dusty a leg up and climbed a railing to get on Demons back, who immediately wanted to break out into a gallop, since thats waht she always wanted. Calming him down, she had him stand next to dusty's horse.

Dusty gathered her reigns. She put her feet in the stirrups. Dusty had picture perfect equitation. Heels down, back straight, thumbs up. She clucked to the mare and she moved forward. With a beautiful walk to canter transition she swung a circle and jumped the first three foot oxer with ease. Her heart pounded. Oh how she had missed that. She found a straight track to the four stride line with her eyes. Sitting up and steering with her legs and hands she drove the mare on to the next jump. Dusty counted 1 2 3 4... Take off 1 2 3 landing... She smiled and in 1 2 3 4 strides she was up and over the large vertical. She sighed and cantered a perfect 20 meter circle before coming to a halt near the letter H. She loosened the reigns and let the little horse puff for a moment. Walking over to Flanna she said "God i've missed that..."

Flanna smiled. "Well..aren't you perfection...well...in your show jumping." She smirked and leaned down to Demon, speaking to him in gaelic. Almost instantaneously he shot off, remembering how Flanna liked to ride, hard, fast. Her style wasn't english that was sure. She allowed her hips to slide with the horse's, and stayed close, making it easier for the horse to move for she cut down any foreiqn resistance.
She went over a few jumps, just allowing Demon to fly over them like he knew how. She didn't give him a que and held tightly onto his main and squeezed with her thighs since she was riding bareback. Not wanting to wear the horse out, she only went for a couple minutes slipping back to Dusty. "Now thats' how I ride."

Dusty smiled. "You definatly have good balance!" she told the other girl. She motioned to the jumps and the small stable hand hithced them up a few more notches. "Thanks.." she said, nudging the little mare into an easy trot then a canter. she picked up the pace and canter/galloped down the quarter line towards a large swedish oxer. She nudged the horse for a lead change and picked her hands up. Squeezing with both legs, they flew over the first jump of the same four stride and over the surprisingly small oxer. She slid her left leg back, bending the horse around it and rolled back to a clean white oxer, set about four feet high and two feet wide. The mare rapped the rail slightly, on acount of it being atleast a foot higher than her back, but cleared it just the same. Hauling back on the reigns and sitting deep, Dusty pulled the mare to a stop. Then she picked up a smooth posting trot and made her way back over to Flanna.

Razor laughed from where he stood at the rail, leaning on it with his elbows. "Well well, what is this, a contest of who does best?" He hopped the fence, a smile on his face. "Flanna, dahlin, let me have Demon for a moment." He spoke to his coworker for a moment, and handed him his jacket and bag. The other dissapeared and came out later with another fiery stallion with a dappled coat.
"This here is Pepper." He rubbed the horse's nose and handed the reins - there was no saddle- to Flanna. "Let me get Demon settled and you two come with me."

Dusty dismounted with ease and smiled at Razor. "You must be Razor!" she exteneded a hand. "I'm Dusty..." she shrugged and lay a cheek on the horses neck. "I missed that so incredibly much!" she breathed.
