Acera watched the horse, that fake smile still plastered on her face, "I'm glad you understand." She looked to Holden, "I have put a block around you, Solomon, Alicia and of course Melody. It's temporary, but while it's in effect, the Charuns and Vanth will be unable to sense you and you should be attack free for a few days. I will speak to Vanth, but I doubt she'll change her mind, even if I were to ask her. So I suggest living these next few days like your last." She chuckled again then disappeared.

[Bovice]

"Yes..." Holden trailed off as he looked to where Acera was standing to find her gone. He sighed, "I told you she wasn't going to hurt you." He glanced to where Solomon was standing. "I should probably go and get him... Right?" He sighed again. He shook his head as Kali nodded. "Well... Want to come with?" He pleaded. "Oh come on... Please?" He leaned his head on Kali's neck as she shook her head. "I'll give you some alfalfa cubes." He smiled as Kali started to pull him out of the stall. "Kali... Kali..." He said over and over trying to stop her because his hand was stuck in her halter. "Damn horse, you could of given me some time to get my hand out of your halter." He looked at the horse as she stopped in front of Solomon. He looked to Solomon but looked away, "Solomon... I'm sorry about this morning. I just hate it when you lie to me." Holden still tried to pull his hand from Kali's halter.

[Evil Tink]

Solomon whirled around to see a copper appaloosa standing behind him, "Well hello there...so it was yours she broke. Damn woman, I have to pay for that." He reached out, gently pulling Holden's hand free from the halter in one, painless movement, "I understand Holden..." He let Holden's hand go, holding Kali's halter, "Now you get back in your stall. I don't want to see a single hair out that door." He let her go and looked to Holden. "I don't like lying to you one bit, but sometimes I find it necessary. I don't like it when you're afraid or worried about your life...I want you to have some sense of security, even if it's only temporary..."

[Bovice]

"Thank you." Holden rubbed his wrist. "I understand too Solomon, but I can take any news." He smiled as he hugged Solomon. "And nothing towards you or anything, but I have really never had a sense of security about my life. First it was my mother then vampires. And then after I was turned vampires and hit men... Then when I was brought back my heart... Which all of this you know." He sighed and then smiled slightly. "So I'm not worried about death, because I will fight and I know you will as well." He looked up to Solomon, "And if I do die, I will live happily in hell knowing that you and I tried." He let go of Solomon and backed up a step. "And as for the door I will pay for it... I kind of pissed Acera off... So ya..." He chuckled. "But she asked for the truth and I gave it to her." He smiled watching Kali prance back to her stall.

[Evil Tink]

Solomon sighed, keeping his hands in his pockets, "I know Holden..but..I can't help it..it's just in my nature.." He tilted his head a bit as he mentioned Acera, "What did she want to know?"

[Bovice]

"I know that Solomon and I adore that in you." Holden stepped forward and rubbed Solomon's cheek. "She wanted to know why I don't like Melody going by her." He sighed. "I'm surprised you didn't listen to the conversation." He chuckled. He turned and leaned on the fence, "I don't think she is one of them. I can read her emotions...." He trailed off as he thought of something. "I read about something once... it said that they can possess human's... Maybe Chris is being used because she is close to you." He bit his lip. "But that is kind of stupid, I mean me and Hayden are closer to you then Chris is." Holden sighed as he watched Damien run around the arena.

[Evil Tink]

"While that is true," he started as he turned around, watching Chris and Damien exit the arena, "She is weaker than the both of you. Her mind would be easy to control compared to yours or Hayden's.." He nodded his head towards the gate as he started off to meet her, knowing Holden would follow, "Jaelynn has been relaying information to me nonstop. They're able to replicate a human almost flawlessly and a false personality to go with it..but who knows..you might be right.."

[Bovice]

Holden jogged to catch up with Solomon, when he caught up to him he laced his arm in his. "Ya but Hayden is even stronger then me." He sighed leaning his head on Solomon's arm. "I think I know more but I have so much information in my head and I can't compartmentalize it. So it's like a jumbled mess up there." He chuckled. "Oh well." He shrugged. "Did Kali win her show? Or didn't she go out today." He looked up to Solomon trying to hide his left hand.

[Evil Tink]

"You don't need to hide it Holden, I saw your finger when you first appeared..." He looked away a bit, "She got 2nd for her show on Saturday...Damien's still waiting for his totals." He met up with Chris and Damien at the stall as she was untacking him, "No issues today I'm assuming?"

Christine looked back as she hauled the saddle from Damien's back, "Nope! He was perfect, in my eyes. I don't know about the damn judges though..they're so particular." She quickly put the saddle on the stand outside the stall then went to brush him down, "What do you think?"

"He did good...I could sense a bit of tension between you two. He's such a pansy ass some times..." He shook his head a bit, "Oh well...he still did marvelous today."

[Bovice]

"I'm sorry Solomon.... I was just upset with you is all. I'll get it back from Alicia." Holden nodded slightly. "Well at least she placed, but she could of done better." He sighed. "So you must be the amazing Christine, its nice to finally meet you. I'm Holden." He stretched out his hand.

[Evil Tink]

Christine took Holden's hand as she came out of the stall shaking it once before letting go rather quickly. A slightly confused look came over her face for a brief second before disappearing to a smile, "And you must be Holden~ That man over there," She pointed to Solomon with her thumb, "never shuts up about you. It's kinda cute~" She threw the brush down in the bucket, patting her hands off on her riding uniform, not really caring about keeping it clean now that her shows were over, "But more often than not it's rather annoying..." She chuckled a bit, punching Solomon lightly on the shoulder, "You know I love you boss."

Solomon narrowed his eyes, rubbing his shoulder even if it didn't hurt, "You know, you could be out of a job just as quickly as that arm of yours Chris." He chuckled weakly, putting his hands back in his pockets.

[Bovice]

Holden stared at his hand because it was numb. He cleared his throat, "Yes. And you talk about me Solomon? You are just so sweet." He put his hand be behind his back as he tried to make it stop being numb. A look of concern came over his face as the numbness moved to his arm. He quickly wiped it off and looked at Damien, "¿Se sintió un entumecimiento cuando te toca Damien? (Did you feel a numbness when she touched you Damien?)" He winced as the numbness became stronger. He nodded when Damien shook his head, "Ok... Ummm, sorry his last owner spoke to him in Spanish a lot. And I just wanted.... Ya..." He grabbed his arm. "Kali must of twisted my arm... I'm going to go and have a talk with her." He glanced to Solomon. "It was nice meeting you Christine." He waved as he quickly ran to Kali's stall.

[Evil Tink]

"You are such a bad liar Holden..."

Christine tilted her head, "You're right..he is spontaneous.." She placed her hands on her hips with a sigh, "I'm going to go get me some food, then maybe sleep a bit. I'll see you at the next show Solomon. Bye~" She waved and walked off with a slight bounce to her step.

Solomon shook his head, whistling softly at Damien. He followed him out to Kali's stall, "He said 'No', by the way. How's your arm now?"

[Bovice]

Holden sat on the floor of Kali's stall and pulled his knees to his chest as the numbness went to his shoulder. He looked to Solomon as the numbness started to recede. "Sorry... It does, and I know he said no. He shook his head." He looked at Kali who was resting her head on Holden's knees. "Thank you for your concern Kali, but I really am fine now." He slowly scratched her neck. "And we need to talk girl, you placed second in your last show? You should be placing first in every show." He sighed. Kali stomped her hoof. "Don't stomp your hoof at me, its the truth. The more you place first, the more I will see you~" His voice was in a singsong tone. Kali snorted. "You know you love me." He chuckled as he wiped the snot off of his face.

[Evil Tink]

Solomon sighed, leaning against the stall as he watched Damien, "It's a shame everyone knows my horses to be so well tamed...I would love to have one of them trample her...it would do us no good in the long run, but it would satisfy my urge to stomp her myself." He shrugged, shooting Damien a glare, "No, you stay right here or no more shows for you. Understand?" The horse snorted, bouncing off back to his stall, sticking his head in the corner. Solomon closed and latched the door with a bit of telekinesis, "Demon horse..."

[Bovice]

Holden chuckled as he stood up, "You would be lost without him Solomon." He smiled as he stood in Kali's stall doorway. He went to say something but stumbled forward as Kali headbutted him in the back. He turned around and threw his hands on his hips, "Excuse me young lady... And I didn't forget ok?" He sighed. "Where can I get some alfalfa cubes? I kind of promised her some." He looked at Solomon. Kali nickered. "Happy now? I asked him." He narrowed his eyes at Kali. Kali nodded her head a lot. "You want to talk about a demon horse... There is your demon horse." Holden pointed at Kali.
