Hell Flame arched his neck as relif was given to him, finally, all that work had paid off. Chris smiled as the girl told her story, musta been a hard life, traveling place to place, trying to please.There are some cross ties in the stud barn, right over there... She said, pointing to a smallish barn that was just to the north of her.There's a tack room too, right by his stall. His stall 'll say "Hell Flame : Thoroughbred" then right inside the tack room door, there's a shelf with all of the grooming supplies. She finished.Ah, I know what you mean girlie, but most of my jockeys are on the run to another farm, so thats why I have so many grooms. She said with a simple shrug. [/blockquote]

Nicki nodded and, on a unconcious thought, bowed slightly, leading Hell Flame to the barn that was pointed out to her. She tied him, patting him shoulder as she untacked him and set them aside. Once those were off, she wandered into the tack room, picking out a curry comb, a stiff bristled brush, a soft brush, comb, and a rag. Her feet carried her back to the stallion as she looked down the hall, blinking. But once she got to Hell Flame, she busied herself with rubbing him down, running the brushes over him, and taking the curry comb over him before running the brushes through again. Once that was done, Nicki shook out her rag and dug in her pack, pulling out a small vial. Inside was a mixture of oils that her cousins and her made. It made the horse shine like a diamond and smelled like fresh cut hay. Nicki dapped some on the rag and very carefully ran it over his hair, talking softly as she did.

A quizzical look passed over Chris's face as the girl bowed, oh well. She shrugged it off and headed to her office in the broodmare barn. She sat in the leather chair and looked over the bills, mostly vet's and farrier's, some were from riding companies, and others from Valley Vet, where she bought most of her supplies.
Hell Flame settled as the girl began to groom him. Peppermints sat beside the grooming kits, one smallish box said "Hell Flames Treats" As he was brushed and whiped down, he would occasionally nudge the girl's pockets, looking for a treat. [/blockquote]

Nicki rubbed some more of what she called 'speed oil' into his coat and ran her hand over his coat, picking up the excess oil. Once she was done with that, she tucked the vial back into her pack, put most of the brushes away, and grabbed soem treats. She kept out the curry comb and after giving him a few treats, she began to brush him again, talking to him as she did.Well boy, you are a speedy little hellion. Wonder what your future is gonna be, she said, talking to herself as well as the horse.

HF felt the girl rub her hands over him, his hooves picking themselves up as if to stomp, but he never did. He ate his treats greedily, his large furry lips tickling the palm of her hand. He watched her suspicously, looking over every so often to his half brother, a Palomino by the name Hell Yeah Theres A Heaven or just Skip in the barn. The palomino also watched the girl, as suspicous as his brother. As the girl talked, although Hell Flame had no clue what she was saying, he would snort when he thought that he should agree, or stomp when he shouldn't. [/blockquote]

Nicki felt at peace here, the scent of horses and hay floating around in a wonderful spin, the feel of the warm, furry bodies around her. Quietly, she began to sing in Japanese, a soft, flowing tune that made her feel calmer. Once she finished, she uncliped Hell and led him to his stall, checking that his water and feed were good to go. Once he was in, instead of leaving, she watched him for abit, looking around at the other horses.

Hell Flame snorted quietly as she began to sing. Calming his large body, relaxing his tense muscles. He nudged her happily as he was lead to his stall. He walked to his feed, eating anxiously, looking at her every so often.

-Then have Chris come in.-
Nicki looked back at him and walked across the hall, looking at the other stallions. They wre pretty, great legs, nice deep chests, and large hind quarters. But they didn't have that thing she always looked for, medium sized hooves, a dainty head with huge nostrils, thick mane and tail, and that powerful, arched neck. She studied them for a second, then went back to Hell Flame. So far, he was her favorite and she only rode him once.
