In the barn Shep was lying down near Pepper's stall, wondering when will he new foal come.

"What's wrong Shep?" Pepper asked.

"I'm just trying to snap, it's been a long morning." Shep said as pregnant Chole came into the barn.

"Oh...my back's been sore for a while now." Chole sat down on a chair and rested her right hand on her stomach, wondering when will her and Bailey's child come. "When is he or she going to pop out?"

"Hey sister, I've got to check on Pepper."

"Good, she might have her foal any day now."

"Chole come here, Pepper's foal might be kicking."

Chole came into Pepper's stall with Zoey and they both had their hands on Pepper's stomach and felt Pepper's foal kicking, Chili was getting jealous of all the time Chole and Zoey are with Pepper and her foal. Chili started to kick his stall wall that is next door to Scarlet's.

"Hey Chili stop that." Scarlet said.

"I'm just wanted Chole and Zoey to have time with me." Chili growled as he kicked some more in his stal making Chole really angry.

"Enough Chili!"

"Chili, cut it out!" Chole shouted, Chili then got upset he has never seen Chole this angry in his life.

"Chili, if you are going to be have like that. I'm going to ride you anyway."

"What's going on in here?"

"I've heard Chili making nosies."

"I've heard him kicking his stall door." Will said.

"We're not sure what is up with Chili today."

In the lesson everyone was ready to jump over the oxer.

"Ok Zoey, you and Chili can go."

Zoey got Chili to go as Zoey kicked Chili he started to go as her got to the jump Chili stopped before he can jump, Zoey was about to try again when Chili tried bucking Zoey off of him.

"Woah." Alma said as she patted Jimber's neck "What's up with Chili today?"

"He's never acted like that." Molly said as Chili bucked Zoey off of him.

"You ok Zoey?" Will asked, Zoey turned to Chili with her angry tone and face at him.

"CHILI! what is wrong with you?!"

After Zoey yelled at Chili he ran back into the barn and into his stall.

"We'll give Chili a few minutes to himself."

"Good idea, Will."

After a couple minutes Zoey came into the barn very upset.

"What happened Zoey?"

"Chili bucked me off, and then he took off."

"I wonder what may be up with him."

"I think that Chili thinks that we don't care about him and we just care about the other horses, maybe that's why he's a little bit angry with us."

"Maybe, I'll talk to him about it. I hope he's calm."

When Chole went in Chili's stall Chili was lying down and was angry.

"Chili, what's wrong buddy?"

Chili looked at Chole, he's eyes were filling up with tears.

"Did we upset you by caring about other horses, and you fough that we didn't care about you?"

Chili then neighed.

"I'm so sorry Chili for not caring about you, it's just that sometimes when changes come it gets hard for horses like you." Chole said as she gave Chill a hug around his neck, then Shep came into Chili's stall with Chole.

"I'm going to pee, I'll be back to talk more later Chili."

"Chili, you seemed unhappy what's wrong?"

"Shep, it's just my owner and her friends care about is with changes and I kept getting yelled at, smack at, threaten and they used hurtful things to me." Chili said as he started to cry.

"Awwww, now now Chili. It's ok sometimes changes can be hard for us when new ones come to HorseLand, they're just owners you can love horses and owners in your way."

"I don't understand Shep."

Shep: I love her, because she's the pregnant one. But I love you cause your big and tall, pregnant and big love; big and tall love. Every loves through out their days, you and Chole different ways. "You see that Chili?"

When Chole came back she saw that Chili's feeling better after Shep sanged a song about different people and different ways.

"So you're better now Chili?" Chole asked as Chili neighed with happiness.

"Come soon to be daddy, Pepper will soon go into labor to have your foal."

Then Zoey came into Chili's stall scared and excited at the same time.

"Chole come to Pepper's stall, I think she's having her foal."

"Coming Zoey, come on Chili you're going to be a dad now."
