The sound of galloping hooves announced the arrival of horse and rider. Elaina leaned forward in the saddle urging Diamond on. The mare's powerful body surged forward over the earth. A light lather covered her flank showing that they'd been riding awhile now. As the trees passed over head, Elaina sat back and reined Diamond in. The mare dropped to a trot and shook her head, mane flopping from side to side.

Elaina smiled and reached down to give her a firm pat. Diamond bobbed her head. She liked a good work out and pat. Elaina brought her to a walk as she scanned the glade floor. The glade was in full bloom and Elaina loved to come collect the flowers here. Diamond liked the glade too, it was quiet and had a pleasant scent not to mention a variety of tasty grasses.

Satisfied that Diamond was cool, Elaina dismounted, pausing to smooth out her blouse and adjust the tight, black riding pants. She removed Diamond's bridle replacing it with the halter she'd brought along. She intended to be out her for a little while and wanted Diamond to be comfortable. The teen also removed the bulky saddle and placed the tack at the base of a tree. She let Diamond wander on her own, the horse wouldn't go far. Elaina then picked up the basket she'd brought and found a nice patch of flowers.

There she knelt and began gathering the loveliest of flowers. She was planning to sell them at the Bazaar later and wanted the best. Everyone knew Sapphire Glade had the most beautiful flowers. She began to hum as she picked the delicate blooms, unconcerned whether anyone else was about the glade.

Irene smiled to herself, dangling the string of yarn as the little kitten continued to bat at it, pounce upon it. She was rather enjoying her day off of school and playing with the gray, energetic kitten Tulio. Busy with school recently, she hadn't had much time for her kitten. Seeing as how it was such a nice day, she had decided to take him outside. She still couldn't believe that Clint had allowed her to actually have one, and the thought made her smile just a little more.

A little while later, and she heard the powerful sound of galloping hooves coming towards the glade. Looking up, she picked up Tulio so that he wouldn't be getting any bright ideas of getting in the horse's way, and sat to watch. Was Clint coming after her for some reason? He and his friend were the only ones she knew to have any horses around here... Pretty soon, she was able to see the rider, and though the color of the horse was about right, the size of the rider sure wasn't.

It was a girl, probably not all that much older than Irene herself. Irene watched in almost awe as the girl seemed to know exactly what she was doing in caring for the horse, and then setting the tack beneath the tree nearby. She sat still another few moments, well after the girl was now sitting herself and gathering some wild flowers, apparently.

Blinking slowly, she finally returned her attention to the kitten squirming within her grasp, and, distracting him with the string again, she carefully set him down. As soon as his paws were on the grass of the glade, however, the kitten's attention diverted from the string and were transferred to the woman and horse. He leaped away from Irene, pausing a moment to look back at her as she made to reach for him again, but then he darted out of her reach and scurried on over towards the young woman picking flowers. He was quite a curious kitten, apparently.

"Tulio!" Irene hissed out, standing in order to chase after her kitten. She wasn't too crazy about horses though, and respectfully let the chestnut have her space. The kitten had no such qualms, but thankfully, he appeared to be more interested in the human at the moment. Approaching the girl, he gave an inquisitive mew.

((OoS: Hope it's all right if I join ~ Irene's not exactly her age, but, I'm hoping, close enough...she needs to met some new peoples/gain new friends, too. xD ))
