AN: I do not own hp of these charachters, however I have altered personalities slightly

Lucius sat at his desk in his personal study and mulled over the conversation that he was regretting. He had Divorced Narcissa only a few months earlier, and then had turned around and bought a burnt down stable from a man in the states. Lucius used to ride in his younger days, and he yearned to again, so he thought this would be perfect for him. Now Draco on the other hand… he doubted that Draco shared his same passion. Either way, Lucius had full custody of the 16 year old and he was taking him with him, and Draco would learn to ride. He already had the re-building in progress and would be complete tomorrow. He loved the magical builders, they were quick in their work and it was always sound. He had them build three manors, five barns, a few arenas and some other odd and end things needed for the horses and showing. He looked back down at the papers in his hands and finished signing then called a house else. A moment later he heard a pop.

"Master has summoned Tally."

"Yes, Tally. Do fetch Draco for me. Tell him it is Important."

Tally bowed and disapperated to do her masters task. A few minutes later Draco appeared in his fathers study looking as sullen as ever.

"You called, father?"

"Yes, sit. We have a matter to discuss." he said waiving to a chair.

Draco eyed his father suspiciously but sat. He eyed his father for a moment before Lucius gave him a reprimanding look and he quickly looked to his hands. Even now, his father still scared him.

"What do you wish to discuss father?" he asked

"We will be re-locating to another estate tomorrow." he said which made Draco look straight up at his father.

"B-but whats wrong with the manor?!" he asked bewildered.

"Just need a change is all." he said

"Which estate?"

"The one in the America's that I just bought."

Draco made a face at this.

"What makes the America's so special? Why not the Estate in Italy? Or France?"

"Because in the Americas, there is a Stable."

"Like… Horses?" and he made another face and Lucius glared at him.

"Yes, Horses. And you will learn to ride Draco."

He looked bewildered at his father. He had avoided horses, or any creature for that matter, his whole life. Now his father expected him to get on such a… dirty, creature? He would rather ride that damned Hippogriff from third year.

"But… Their just plain muggle horses…Why would you want plain muggle horses?!"

"Ah Draco… You will be in for quite the surprise."

Again, Draco glared at him. "There is nothing surprising about normal looking horses."

"Indeed, there isn't. But either way we are going, and you will learn to ride."

"Can't I just go to stay with mother?" he asked soberly.

Lucius's eyes narrowed.

"No. And there will be no mention of her in this house, do you understand?!" Lucius snarled at his son making Draco look instantly at the ground.

"Yes, Father." he said

"You may be dismissed." Lucius said and Draco stood quickly and all but fled from the room and the presence of his father.

Lucius and Draco both flew to the Estate in Georgia. Draco looked around as he walked into the Library of the manor.

"This looks just like the Manor in Wiltshire." he said exploring as much as he dared.

"It's supposed to. Even your room is the same." he said with disgust and Draco just smirked.

"So much for Change" he muttered earning a glare from his father that shut him up.

"Follow me." he said leading him out the door and around to the back of the manor.

Draco spied two other Manors as they walked.

"What are those for?" he asked curiously.

"The one to your left is for the riders and staff here. The one to the right is for the Guest who come during Events and such.
"Horse events?"

"Amongst other things." he said.

Draco eyed the Arena as they passed it and the high walls just behind it, between the Manor and the Arena.

"Thats the Garden." he said spying his sons gaze.

They walked quietly towards the barns. They looked normal height and very elegant from their vantage point.

"This is the Mare barn." he said leading his son in.

"And what is a mare?" he asked and Lucius had to hide his chuckle.

"A mare is a female horse. A stallion is a intact male. A gelding is a castrated male. A foal is a baby. Filly is a baby girl. Colt is a baby boy." he explained and Draco just nodded.

He looked at what appeared to be a normal black and white looking horse. He looked in further and nearly jumped back as he saw grape vines wrapped around her and wings that she had tucked in.

"What kind of horse is this?" he asked cautiously.

"She is a Pellegrino." he said and Draco stared at him. Lucius just chuckled.

"There is a book in the Library with all the breeds here. I'll have Tally put a copy in your room." he said and Draco nodded.

As they walked, he came across another mare. She was black with purple markings and purple Mane and tail. Draco stared at her as she flattened her ears and bared her sharp teeth.

"Dangerous horse?" he asked.

"An Icogan mare with a Dragon heart. So technically yes, she is dangerous due to her 'Poison' Element which determined the color of her markings. Don't go around her unless her owner/rider is here. She's attacked before, So she is a bit unpredictable."

Draco nodded and moved on quickly. You didn't have to tell him twice. As he and his father walked, Draco saw one of the other Icogan mares. This little girl was white with blue and purple markings along her.

"Who is this?" he asked.

"That is Fyera D'Acqua." he said.

"Italian?" he asked and his father nodded.

"She is known as Fyera around here. I have heard she is quite the ride." he said and Draco nodded. He watched as the white mare stretched her nose to him and nickered. He slowly raised a shaking hand and Lucius watched curiously. The mare pushed the tip of her muzzle into his hand. He gently pushed his hand further so she wouldn't have to strain. Her ears were perked forward and Draco smiled, slowly rubbing up her nose.

"So, whats her powers?" he asked, knowing his father had mentioned something magical about the Icogans.

"She can control Fire and Weak purple fire." he said and Draco nodded

"Don't worry, She can only control it once its been lit for now."

"For now?"

"Once she gets her Dragonheart and Masters the Element, she will be able to create it."

Draco nodded and they continued their walk through the other barns. Later they retired back to the Manor.

"I will be warming some of the horses tomorrow. After that I expect you to be in the arena at 10am so I can teach you to ride."

Draco nodded and was soon off to bed. Lucius went back to his study and sat, looking at all the horse registrations he had to sign and set to it. He reviewed the ins and outs of Pure-Blood Slytherin Acres. He smirked at the name but knew it was only fitting. He soon retired for the night, eager to teach his son to ride in the Morning and knew exactly who to use.
