Welcome to Hickstead, home to both Seven Oak Stables, and Blue Acre - two rival stables. Both offer opportunities for their clients to reach the highest level of excellence. Each stable differs from the other, so choose wisely and never forget, loyalty is everything... Meanwhile as the stables battle it out, there's trouble brewing at the university. Be careful, if you don't pick a side you may get caught in the cross-fire...

"Is Apollo a work in progress then? I think a person would be worth more than just a horse treat." She grinned a little and shook her head. ”Yeah Echo is definitely a work in progress. . he’s a bit of an ass.” She admitted. The youngster certainly had a lot to learn when it came to manners. "Sounds good, I usually have it on in case the vets need to bring me in for an emergency. So even if it's a text at 2 AM, I'll get it." She nodded, hoping she would never have to call him that late at night. ”Noted.” She smiled. "Nothing but sunshine and beaches right? I bet the rain really gets to you sometimes." She sighed longingly and nodded her head once more. ”Yes! Ugh I miss it. . british weather sucks.” She complained. "Germany is nice. Lots of different landscapes. I do love the Winter though, we do get a bit of snow too." She listened to him describing his country and smiled. ”Sounds nice; I’ll have to get there one day.”

"Do you now? Your horses think so too?" She laughed and half shrugged her shoulders. ”Apollo and Ghost would likely agree but Echo would probably sell me for a treat.” She mused. The young stallion definitely had no loyalties to her yet. He was a work in progress. A long one at that. "At least with people I can explain things to in English, but my equine patients don't understand until they feel better." She looked at the horse again and smiled. ”I’m sure they sense you’re there to help them then feel a hell of a lot better once you do.” She assured.
"That would be great thanks. Now you have my personal phone number so... no excuses." She turned her head slightly for a moment as she felt a blush rising to her cheeks. ”I’ll be calling in the future for sure.” She smiled. Skye had no doubt her horses would need a chiropractor in the future. "A good friend of mine runs the rescue they came from. Said they were brought in together. L.A? Hickstead must have been a huge change then?" She grinned. ”Yeah it was an adjustment but I’ve grown to love the place. .I still miss the weather though.” She admitted. ”Nice, I’ve never been to Germany, what’s it like?” She asked.

"He hasn't even known you for five minutes and you are his new favourite person." She grinned and let the horse lip at her hand. "Well what can I say, I have that affect on people" She joked, giving the palomino another rub on the nose. "He sometimes feels like I torture him but once he starts relaxing, he changes his mind." She let out another laugh and looked back to Everett. "I think I'm the same when it comes to massages, it always hurts before it gets better." She said sympathising with the horse. "Perfect, I'm sure I have a stack of them in my bag. I've also have some at the tack store for people to pick up." She smiled again. "Perfect, I work there so I can always let you know when you're low on cards." She offered. Skye watched as the man did some more work on the horse, watching his hand placements. "Yeah, they practically came as a pair, so I couldn't say no to taking on a second horse. That must be fun! Are you not originally from England either?" She grinned, knowing she would have probably done the same thing. "They have to have a friend. . Nope we moved over here when I was 16 from LA. .dad got a new job. . where are you from originally?"

“He’ll be alright, I promise.” She couldn’t help but feel sympathy for the gelding but nodded anyway. ”good.” She moved closer gain and reached out a hand to stroke the horse’s soft muzzle gently. ”Notice how he’s lowered his head. That means he is starting to feel better too. You’ll notice him licking and chewing too when I hit the right spot.” She watched as the horse relaxed and smiled. ”well he certainly seems to be enjoying it.” She’d probably have a similar reaction if somebody cracked and realigned all of her joints. “Oh, that is a good idea! How many do you think is good? I have some pinned to the board by the indoor arena too.” She shrugged her shoulder as she thought for a moment. ”Hmm maybe like 5 to start with? Then just replenish as and when you need to?” She suggested. “Have you always had gray horses? Or was it just a coincidence that they all are the same color? My other horse, Sunday is a blue roan, so it’s almost like having a gray.” She grinned a little at the question. It probably was odd to have 3 horses of the same colour but she loved how they changed over time. ”Aw you have another? A coincidence I guess. .my first two horses were bay then when I moved to England, I got Ghost then Apollo caught my eye at a show and my parents actually found Echo for a christmas present, they thought it would be funny to give me another grey.”

“Fernie keeps me in business, that's for sure. I swear he is a six year old in a seventeen year olds body.” Skye looked at the horse with a smile. "Aww poor guy." She hated seeing horses in discomfort, and it pained her to see any of her own hurting. “Perfect. Here’s my card.” I should really put some up on the bulletin board in the clubhouse but I keep forgetting.” She took the card from him, glancing at the details before placing it in her back pocket. "I can pin one up in the tack room if you want? Plenty of people passing through there everyday." She offered. “My phone number and the website are on there. The website has the prices and you can book online too!” She nodded, making a mental note to check it out when she got home. "Perfect, I'll check it out later." She had noticed Apollo had been a little stiff after a ride in the week so it wouldn't be a bad idea to get him checked over. “Greys, huh? They are not easy to keep clean are they. You must spend a lot of time in the wash rack with them.” She let out a soft laugh and shook her head. "Oh all the time. They definitely keep me busy!"

“He needs to learn that he’s not a young colt anymore.” She laughed and looked at the horse as he snorted in protest. ”I think he’d like to disagree!” She moved a little closer as she watched the guy work on the horses spine. “Nice to meet you too, Skye. I also do regular adjustments so you don’t have to fall off a horse just to have a visit from me.” She smiled and messed with her hair a little to hide the faint blush that crept onto her cheeks from his wink. ”Well I’ll definitely keep that in mind.” She watched, intrigued as the horse lowered his head from the adjustments Everett made. “So, how many horses do you have? Or do you lease?” She looked back to him and grinned ”I have my own. .three greys.” She was probably mad having three horses but she loved them all, even her newest asshole of an addition. “I can give you my card if you’d like. My prices are listed on the clinic’s website as well.” She nodded with a smile. ”Yeah okay thanks.”

. “Oh nothing too terrible, just giving him a regular adjustment. He seemed to be sore yesterday when I rode him.” She listened with a smile as she rested her shoulder against the wall why she watched. ”Oh aw poor guy.” She looked back to the palomino and watched the guy feel around his neck for the source of pain. “Don’t worry about it, I know people are curious about what I do. This big guy is Fernie and I’m Everett. “I do chiropractic work on humans as well.” She nodded a lifted a brow ”Nice to meet you both, I’m Skye. .well that’s good to know. .I’ll have to keep that in mind the next time I’m chucked off.” She joked with a grin.

Skye walked from Apollo’s stable, bridle slung over one shoulder as she carried his saddle in two arms. Walking past another section of the barn as she headed to the tack room, she saw a man working with a horse that was tied in the cross-ties. She paused for a moment and briefly watched as he worked on the gelding until the ache in her arms reminded her of the tack in hand. Skye returned it back to its rightful place in the tack room before coming back the way she had come, wanting to observe the guy again. ”What’s wrong with him?” She asked, noticing the agitation on the horse’s face. She looked back to the guy and gave an apologetic smile. "sorry for interrupting"

i'm looking for people to take my guy dodger and my girl skye's siblings and skye's future bf. Also thinking of plotting my girl Dani with Zaine if they gel! names/playby's are suggestions. If anyone is interested comment below or send me message on discord!
KOLTON EZEKIEL LOCKWOOD
tobias reuter - twenty three/twenty four - professional rider
Kolton is intended to be Skye Kingstons love interest. Kol is a professional rider like Skye, but he rides at Blue Acres. I'd like them to be show jumping rivals. Kolton could have been one of the best upcoming riders in town and when Skye moved over four years ago, started giving him a run for his money. Skye is usually friendly to most people but Kolton just gets under her skin. So they dislike each other but there's also a bit of a sexual tension going on. Personality is up to you but I would like it if he's a bit arrogant, sarcastic, full of himself type.

levi is skyes oldest brother, personality and profession is up to you!
CAMILLE SOPHIA KINGSTON
melissa benoist - nick's twin - twenty three

ava is dodgers younger sister, personality and profession is up to you! dodger moved to hickstead about two years ago from London so his sister could be visiting and decide to stay and go to the university.
ZAINE ATLAS BLAKE
rudy pankow - nineteen
zaine is dodgers younger brother, personality and profession is up to you but would like it if zaine is a bit of a troublemaker much like how his brother used to be when he was younger. He could run away to dodgers after getting into trouble with his parents. Also like to be my girl Dani's love interest if they gel!
