*She is soaked with sweat and tears plus worry is etched on her face. Walks up to Ivy.* Hi. Lights and Dancer are in their stalls. I'll come with you to get them. Just let me get changed first, and I'll meet you there. *Walks into the house and gets changed, then meets Ivy in the barn. You can tell she's washed up a bit also.* Hey, do you want some help loading these guys? *Puts a halter on Dancer and gets him ready to go, prepping him with boots, rug and tail bandage. Loads him onto Ivy's trailer and sees Ivy doing the same.* Well, I've got some work to do, so I'll see you 'round! *Runs back into the stable just as the vet's truck pulls in. Kath comes out to meet him. Curious, you follow them into the barn, and see them stop at Sand Storm's stall. You also notice that the stallion wasn't hanging his head over the stall door like he usually does. You overhear what Kath is telling the vet.* Well, I was just checking up on the herds, like I always do, and suddenly the stallion of one herd, massive white brute, charges after us, and Storm falls, and guess what, the stallion rears over him and jumps him, again and again. I was running at the time, but could hear it. Then, I hear the stallion run back to his herd and there's Storm right next to me, utterly exhausted and with several cuts all over him. I've been with him all night, poulticing his legs and cleaning his wounds, but he's still really stiff and sore. I don't know what to do. *As you watch on, you see tears falling down Kath's cheeks. You turn away, your thoughts now on your horses in the trailer.*
