Riley sat aboard her golden mare the air bittercold. Why was it she decided on a whim in the middle of winter to go catch a horse? she had no idea she didn't really need anymore horses but she'd love to have a true wild one to work with. She sighed and pulled her hate lower to try to shield her face a little more. The wooly palomino mare shifted in anxiousness. She kicked her forward into a slow lope. If you hadn't known the mare was 3 you'd think she was well in her prime by the way she acted. Riley sat to the mares smooth gaits. She stopped for a second on the top of a ridge to look at the surrondings. She'd come in search of wild horses and hoped to find atleast one. She cantered forward a more strides and then came up to a halt to her left a chestnut stood breathing slightly heavy her neck marred with sweat. she kicked the palomino a little closer approaching slowly. She saw as she approached a small wound on her leg. She sighed uneasily. She'd wanted a healthy strong horse but she couldn't leave the mare out here to get even more hurt or worse. She untied her lasso and swung it loosely in her hand. The chestnut winced and made to run away limping slowly away instead trying it's best to retreat. Riley kicked the palomino into a lope and approached the wild horse cautiously. She swung her lasso and managed the snag the chestnut around the neck. She quickly dallied on her horse and waited as the chestnut faught off it's predetor. She backed the palomino mare and turned her heading back to the barn dragging the now merely reluctant mare back with her a fight occuring every few steps so it was slow a process.
