Hello, my dear readers. I am so TERRIBLY sorry that I haven't updated in so long! Please let me explain… We got a new computer, and it has Microsoft Works Word Processor, and doesn't accept documents from that application! So I've not been able to update until now because my dad FINALLY got his laptop fixed… over a year later. Terribly sorry! But, absence makes the heart grow fonder, no? Lol… Would posting 3 chappies in one day make it up to y'all? Let's hope so. Lol… Okay, okay, on to the long awaited Chapter 10!

Chapter 10- Meeting… Her 3

Day. Night. Day. Night. I was in my stupid stall with all the stupid other horses around me. I was very bitter, to say the very least. A female human that wasn't Danni (as I'd come to know my rider as) appeared at the half door of my stall and began to massage my nose. A male came and clipped a lead rope to my halter.

Impressive, huh?

"Toxin" taught me all the terms.

Big whoop…. Not…

Anyways, this man opens the door to my stall and begins to lead me out of the barn.

"G'bye, Final Wish!" Poison called.

"Bye! Where'm I going!"

"HOME!" I would not go without a fight. I reared, and the lady dropped my rope. I stood there, my nostrils flaring. The woman looked at me, confused.

"Sam?" she said. The man looked under my belly and shook his head.

"He's a stallion." The lady let go of my rope, disappointed, and he took me back to my stall.

"Nice way to blow it, Final Wish," Poison snapped.

"Blow what? I'm staying here, for now. I'm not going to be anyone's pretty little pony," I replied. A dark haired man came into my stall and began to run his hands along my body, my legs (which were healed, thank you very much!) and all else before leaving and doing the same to a few other horses in the row. He came back to my stall, pulled a large wad of green stuff (A/N it's Moolah ) out of his pocket and put it in a cubby by my stall before taking a hold of my lead rope, opening the door, and leading me out. Danni was watching, and she gave me a look that told me to behave. Although I resented her, I still loved those damned sugar cubes…

But I was not going to let him take me without a fight. I was about to rear, but a lovely scent filled my nostrils. I turned around, and there she stood- Ice. I couldn't buck or rear without hurting her. I was put on a trailer, and so was Ice. I hung my head low as the door closed.

"Hi! My name is Sunshine!" I looked next to me and saw a gorgeous golden dun filly.

"I'm Magick Thunder," I said halfheartedly.

"Nice to meet you." We began talking, and I really began to like her and enjoy her company. There was a bang, and I heard a fellow horse yawn.

"Morning, Sunshine," came a voice. Sunshine nodded.

"Magick Thunder, meet my friend Piñata." I looked across, and smiled at the lovely paint. I began to talk to them, and I introduced them to Ice, who simply snorted and turned her head away from them. A horse with a shaggy black mane shoved his head over his stall door. Sunshine and Piñata both closed their mouths and shrunk back into the darkness of their stalls.

"Sunshine," he snapped.

"Yes…?"

"You are no longer allowed to talk to that simpleton," he growled, looking at me.

"Simpleton? Excuse me, but I-"

"Magick," Sunshine whispered harshly. "Shut up."

"No, Sunshine, let the colt speak his mind," he said.

"You don't know me, so don't judge me. And I am going to talk to whomever I want to talk to. And if you don't like it, too bad. I don't answer to anybody."

At this time, the trailer came to a very abrupt stop, and he was taken off. He snarled something to Sunshine under his breath, and as soon as he was off Sunshine and Piñata let out a long sigh of relief.

"Who was that jerk?"

"He was the lead stallion at my stable. He thinks that Piñata and I belong to him."

"You don't belong to anyone." She smiled at me, and we went over a bump. She whispered something that I couldn't exactly understand, but I think it was something along the lines of "If you play your cards right, maybe I'll belong to you." She closed her eyes and fell asleep, the ghost of a smile tugging at the corners of her lips.

"Magick?" I looked over. Piñata was speaking to me.

"Yes?"

"Promise me that you will take good care of us. Sunshine and I aren't used to being someone's mares… and I'm a little scared." I smiled at her.

"No worries, Piñata. I don't consider you my mares. Not at all. Because although I want to remain a stallion, I'm still becoming very tame." I looked at Sunshine. "But that was before meeting… her."
