Subject: \\:/Too Tough to Tame\\:/ Author: Handlers and Dragline [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 12:25:49 03/13/03 Thu A truck and trailer rolls in and parks right outside of a large pen. A crash is heard inside, along with other sounds making like struggling and nervous animals. 3 men wheel around to the back, connecting the gate against the side of the trailer. An earshattering call can be heard across the lot as the trailer is opened up and a blur bolts out. As the dust settles, what was thought to have been an entire collection of animals turns out to be but one horse. Coat shining brightly under the afternoon sun. How could such a devine creature make such a racket? Ears laid back flat against her skull she rears and cries out. The handlers sigh with exhaust as she goes into a rampage around the corral. The men tack up a sign and wait patiently for anyone willing and with enough guts to take her. ...she'll run you ragged... [Name] Dragline [Gender] Filla [Age] 3 [Heritage] Arabian x Thoroughbred [Hue] Fiery red-orange coat, white star, 4 white socks, black mane and tail. [History] She was captured by humans as a newborn and was threatened and intimidated constantly. She and the only other foal in the stable were the only ones not beaten. At 2, she began viciuosly attack the humans until they abandoned the stable. The handlers that have her now, retrieved her and a couple other horses. They couldn't calm her so they want to find someone who can. [Persona] As you can tell from her history, she isn't fond of humans. She is very aggressive. Beneath her tough exterior, there is a champion inside. She is a filly with her heart in racing. If she isn't fuming, she will run to her heart's content, making herself faster to be the absolute best she can be. But her trust in anything will not come easy to anyone.

[> Subject: \\:/Too Tough to Tame\\:/ Author: Handlers and Dragline [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 15:42:48 03/14/03 Fri The men looked to the woman with surprised expressions. "She's free to a good home, but I'm not sure if you could handle her." The taller man replied skeptically. The filly reared up and shrilled threateningly towards the humans. Ears laced back flat aginst her head, she charged at the gate. She stopped before hitting it and snorted, bolting off to the otehr side of the gate. She stood opposite of the humans and threw her head around violently. [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

[> [> [> Subject: \\:/Too Tough to Tame\\:/ Author: Handlers and Dragline [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 16:46:28 03/14/03 Fri The man sighs as he looks to the others, and then to the filly. "Well... Okay, but only if you think you can handle her." The filly snorts and continues to stand by the opposite fence, glaring at the woman. She refused to be property to the weak minded two-legged humans. She tossed her head and shifts her weight. [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

[> [> [> [> Subject: |Things Are Sweet| Author: Hilary [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 16:49:12 03/14/03 Fri |She looks at the filly and leans on the fence. She put her hand out for her. | [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

[> Subject: \\:/Too Tough to Tame\\:/ Author: Dragline [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 17:04:52 03/14/03 Fri She snorts and turns her head in the woman's direction. Did that woman actually think she could tame her? Her wild spirit ran with the winds of the wild and free. Besides, the human kind did not appreciate her. They only tormented her and the ones she loved. How dare they... ...she'll run you ragged... [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

[> [> Subject: |Things Are Sweet| Author: Hilary [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 17:10:46 03/14/03 Fri |She sighed again and put an apple in her hand. | [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

[> [> [> Subject: \\:/Too Tough to Tame\\:/ Author: Dragline [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 17:16:51 03/14/03 Fri Ears perked forward slightly at the offering of food. No, she thought to herself, it's probably a trick. I'll eat the apple, she'll take me away and lock me up. Nares flared as she took but one step forward. If the woman wanted her enough, she thought, she would come and get her. She pulled her head up, ears flattening once more. [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

[> [> [> [> [> Subject: \\:/Too Tough to Tame\\:/ Author: Dragline [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 17:35:55 03/14/03 Fri The filly's head jerked slightly as the woman made her approach. She snorts and paws at the ground. She reared up and emitted a shrill threat. [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

[> [> [> [> [> [> [> Subject: \\:/Too Tough to Tame\\:/ Author: Dragline [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 17:56:19 03/14/03 Fri Filla's ears still laced back as she listened to the woman's voice. It didn't sound one that of a harmful creature, but then again, she couldn't be sure. She took one more step forward, but kept her focus in case it was a trick. [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

Was she really okay like she said? She would just have to find out for herself. She walked a few more steps, bringing her about a foot from the human. [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

The lead man stood and watched in amazement. "That filly ain't give us nothin' but trouble since we found her. If you still want her, you can have her, although I'm not sure how calm she'll stay for long." [ Post a Reply to This Message ]
