Cause that is what going on me Christopher. He has fallen in love with this girl along his travels up north. That he has allowed her to tag along with him and Bandit, but after a couple weeks of being together. She started to cheat on him, but Chris just played it off and said that she would never do anything like that. So he continued to allow her to still come along. Stopping at a small hotel that was near a nice large barn. Looking around for the office. Chris had walked in and booked the room for a night. Going out and opening the door. Allow his girl to go on in while he tended to Bandit. Not knowing that while she was inside she was planning to leave him that night before he woke up.
That night he had left Bandit in the trailer with a window open for him to have fresh air and left water and his food in there for the night until he would wake up. Having dinner with his love and going off to bed. Not knowing that when he had passed out, that she snuck outside, took Bandit out of the trailer, tied him to the small fence, his tack on the porch, left a bale of hay and his bucket of water. Leaving quietly with the truck and the trailer.
The next morning, Chris woke up without his girlfriend beside him. So he thought she had gotten up and went outside for fresh air. Knowing that she would not think about checking on Bandit for him. So he went and got dressed, but when he opened the door he was greeted by Bandit standing on his front porch. Looking down to see that there is his tack and the bale of hay that he had left for Bandit and his water. Looking around as he saw that the truck and trailer were gone. Which was not like his girl would do.
So with a sigh coming from his mouth. Chris turned and walked into the room again. Grabbed the bag that had his groom stuff in and walked back outside and began to groom off Bandit. Finishing up he turned and placed the grooming stuff back into the room. Turned and went back outside and tacked up Bandit. Got onto him and began to ride around. Heading towards the nearby barn. Wondering if his girl had gone over there. Since he wasn't sure if she really left or not.
Walking past a couple paddocks. Chris looked around. Hearing the sound of Bandit snorting as they walked. "I know man, but we got to look around." He said as he patted the chestnut stud's neck. Looking around as he wondered just where she had gone. Not paying attention to any of the buildings. Only the sight of the vehicles that were around to see if he could find his vehicle and his trailer.

The morning air was so refreshing as I tok a deep breath into my lungs, waking me up from the night before. Lately I hadn't been sleeping well, my head going in every direction and not shutting off even when the night time fell. I stood on the front porch and stretched my hands to the sky just like it was in arms reach even though it was thousands of miles away. The sun was just peeking over the mare's barn and I could hear the soft nickers of horses. I only had a few schooling horses and one personal horse at the moment, Lilian. Yeah that mare would be the death of me thats for sure. I adopted her from the humane society and realized that she never really had any human contact for the most of her life so I was trying to create some sort of bond between myself and the mare. So far, it was an extremely slow process since I couldn't get any where near the stubborn mare. I mean hell I really couldn't blame her though, sometimes I didn't want anyone around me either.
Putting on my old cowboy boots and baseball cap I walked out to the paddock that I was keeping Lilian in. I was keeping her separate so she couldn't turn the other horses. Horses were herd animals and sometimes it only took one horse to change the personality of many. The dirt shifted under my feet with each new step that I took towards the paddock. On the horizon I could see the buckskin mare eating the tall grass in the pasture that she was in. Climbing over the white fence I made my way slowly and calmly to the mare. Yesterday i tried this and she decided to charge at me and almost ran me over. It would most likely happen again today but thats okay, I couldn't punish her for that. Within 200 feet of the mare she lifted her head and looked at me, ears pinned back in response of me being so close to her. Even at 200 feet the mare was uncomfortable with me being there, but I didn't back down. I didn't want her to learn that if she didn't want me there I would leave, was not going to be a good habit for the mare to create. I slowly took a few more steps towards the mare and stopped. Pawing with her hooves she disagreeded with my movements and I could tell her she was getting nervous and frustrated.
Then just like a replay it happened again. In a split second the mare charged at me, kicking up her hocks into the air, sending grass and dirt into the air as well as she made her charge toward me. I knew I couldn't out run the mare so I just jumped out of the way and hit the ground just in time for her to send her hooves flying in a fierce buck into the air. As she started running towards the other end of the paddock I punched the ground in frustration. I usually had no problem with horses but this mare was going to be a challenge for myself. I got up and brushed off the dirt that was now on my jeans. Blowing the bangs out of my face I watched as the mare stopped and looked towards the road, ears straight up. I turned in the direction of which she was looking and saw someone riding a horse up my road which was extremely odd. I made my way down the hill and towards the fence that was about a few hundred feet in front of the person making their way towards my house. Can I help you? I asked as I hoped over the fence and stood on the dirt driveway that led towards my house and the barn.

Chris just took a deep breath and let out a sigh. Turning and looking to see the sight of someone walking up to a buckskin equine. Putting his feet forwards and raising his hand just a little to have Bandit come to a halt. Sitting there for a moment as he watched to see just what was going to happen with this horse. For he watched the girl walk up to the horse, but he could not tell what exactly was going on. Watching as the girl's stride actually slowed and the horse's skull was turned facing her. With her thorns falling onto her boa. Then all of a sudden the mare charged forwards. Kicking up dust all over the place as she bucked. He just shock my head and tapped Bandit's sides gently with the touch of his spurs. Looking around again before turning and see the sight of the girl coming towards me and the cry of the horses crying out when they caught the sight of Bandit. Turning his attention to this lady who has randomly came up towards him.
He scratched the back of his head as he looked at her and then looked at the ground for a moment before turning his eyes back up to her. "Well, I was with this girl and she kind of left me with my horse and the stuff that I have for him. I was just seeing if she came here or if she really left me." He sighed as he looked at her and then patted Bandit. Watching him carefully to see if he liked this girl or not. Seeing that Bandit was picky with certain people. But he actually kept his ears perked and licking at his lips with happiness. That made Chris smile a little bit just so that this lady didn't notice. Looking back up to the lady as he put his hand out towards her. "Howdy, my name is Chris by the way. May I know yours?" He asked as he looked at her. Wondering what she was going to say. Knowing that some people aren't that nice to go and through out their names.
Looking back up to the buckskin mare as Chris felt the shift of Bandit as he go comfortable. "Looks like your having a little bit of trouble with that buckskin mare." He said as he looked back at the person in front of her. "I'm taking a guess that she doesn't seem to like people?" He asked as he looked at her. Wondering just what she was going to say to him. Just at this very moment there were no words except for the air that was breezing over the land. Wondering just what this gal was thinking as he sat on Bandit's back.

After meeting each other, a loud old motorcycle goes by, spooking -a- horse.
It is up to you to choose which horse it spooks, and how bad the horse reacts.
