For a moment, he thought she was preparing him for a show but he knew she only wished to ride him around in the arena. At least that would not require riding in the trailer for long hours, that part he didn't enjoy too much. Tossing up his head as she picked up the brown English saddle, he felt her smooth out the saddle pad. Alonso pricked his ears, he snorted as a flow of new scents flowed into his nose. A few of the other horses tossed up their heads, they were curious to what Alonso was doing.

Alonso chewed on the bit for a while, before he settled down and waited for instruction. He took a few steps as soon as he felt her sit down in the saddle. Her feet slid into the stirrups and he awaited her next command.

He moved forward at a lazy walk, tossing up his head as he neared the grassy trail. It was lined with colorful treets, fall had painted the green leaves with bright shades of yellow, orange, and red. He felt new scents rush into his nostrils, which he took in and accepted. Pawing at the ground, he never did enjoy walking for long periods of time. He longed to run a bit faster, but obeyed the wishes of his rider. He was trained to do so.

As she kicked his sides, his lazy walk soon transformed into a steady canter. His hooves hit the ground at a steady pace, that was not too fast and it was not too slow. This trail had jumps put in place on purpose, for Elektra took Alonso on this trail often. He knew the trail well, it was one he bad been on many times before. Pulling against the bit, he carefuly threw his body into the air, as if he were gliding on an ocean current. Alonso knew he had cleared the obstacle, for his hooves hit the ground and he returned to his soothing canter. Alonso could never deny his frisky, wild side that still remained inside of him. He kicked out with his hind legs, but it was in a silly and foolish manner.

"Hey.''Katrina said to him,scolding him.Katrinda then petted his neck even though he's frisky,and can be wild sometimes she still loved him.And then did a turn toward the creek part of the trail.She then clicked her tounge to go a little slower.Then she put him into a trot until they hit the water.

The gelding tossed up his head, one ear pricked backwards and the other focused on the water ahead. Alonso had been trained with ease and with skill, the water was just an obstacle in his way. He trotted into the water, the refreshing liquid met his ankles as they moved to the shore. It required a bit of energy to pull himself out of the water, but with a small leap he was back on solid land once more. Being the mouthy horse he always was, he let out a solid whinny as he trotted past a few other riders who were having problems getting their horses over the obstacles. Alonso wasn't much of a show-off, but he always did when he could.

Gallop! the German Warmblood moved into a swift gallop, the sixteen point three hand high palomino hopped over a few obstacles in his way. One of the larger, harder obstacles approached and Alonso knew he had the might to clear it. As they got a bit closer, he tossed up his head and kicked out his hind legs. It was a chunky log, put in place on purpose to add a little difficulty to the course. His take off was flawless, and as he felt himself tuck in his legs Alonso felt his hooves fall back to the ground.

She smiled and petted his neck.And halted him and wrapped her arms around around his chest.She kissed his soft neck.''I love you boy.''She said softly to him in his ear.Then petted the other side of his neck softly.

His ears pricked forward, they flickered around before pawing at the ground and sofly tossing his head. He would always give Luke a hard time whenever he would get on him and he often enjoyed jerking his head against the reins and kicking out with his legs. It was always fun to unseat him, laughing at him in a sharp whinny when he fell.
