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...

Emma was ready to help rebuild the barn, but as she was going to help with the pony rides. The blonde put a halter on her old Halflinger mare, Lola and used a lead rope to lead her over to where the pony rides were being held. She greeted the others with a hello and a smile, backing Lola up with the other lesson horses and ponies.
She wasn't quite sure how the day was going to go, but Emma had been up bright and early to bath the mare. Her flaxen coat shimmered in the sun and her tack had been meticulously cleaned. "Come one, Come all for the amazing pony rides!"
Emma wasn't one for advertising but someone had to be in charge of getting people's attentions. She was sure there were young kids who wanted to learn how to ride and Emma was there to give them the experience.
Emma is really skeptical of adults, since her parents and foster family basically left her. She loves being independent and doing her own thing. Once someone adopts/fosters her for a long period of time, she will open up and be a super sweet girl that loves riding and animals. She lives at Blue Acres with Naomi and the gang. She also goes to school still so she would need some friends there as well.

Emma doesn't really have any. Though I'm sure there are people who don't like her at school or at the barn, just like everyone else.
HEY THERE! my name is Gabriella and i'm 21 years old. i'm a wiminz and i've been roleplaying for 5 years. but enough about me, here's my character. =]
[/font]:[/b] Echte Liebe (Real Love)
barn name: Marco.
age: 15. (April 12th, 2000)
gender: gelding.
colour: dark bay.
markings: white star on his face, black mane and tail and four white socks.
height: 14.1 hh
breed: German Riding Pony.
sire and dam: Starke Liebe (Strong Love) X Echte Kraft (Real Power)
siblings: Half brother named Echte Seele (Real Soul)
owned by: Emma Young.
brief history: Marco was born at a rescue barn in Germany. The young colt was sent to England to go to a horse whisperer, since no one could ride him or even handle him. This horse whisperer couldn't handle him either, but still kept him at his ranch. Finally, a young man trained him in dressage, being the only one to handle him. Unfortunately, the young man died of lung cancer and left Marco alone. The two of them won many dressage ribbons and trophies together but he was sold to another rider. This rider got bucked off of him and broke her arm. One night, he was sent to auction and Emma begged her foster family to buy him. That did not happen, so Emma and her older foster brother, Caleb "borrowed" the truck and stole Marco from the trailer that was going to the slaughterhouse. It was easy to keep Marco a secret, since the family left her the very next day. Emma has ridden Marco a few times and luckily hasn't gotten bucked off yet. [/font][/ul]
[/font]:[/b] dressage, being treated well and being pampered.
dislikes: being worked too hard, disappointing his rider and birds.
strengths: dressage, being quiet and flying lead changes.
weaknesses: he doesn't trust people but for some reason he trusts Emma.
fears: Emma leaving him and death.
habits: paw the ground, shake like a dog when he is wet and nibbling fingers.
overall personality: Marco is shy, just like Emma. He doesn't like many people but when he does like you/tolerate you he is a perfect pony. He likes bucking and rearing if something is terribly wrong. [/ul]

markings: She has a small blaze and a cream mane and tail.
height: 15 hh.
breed: Haflinger.
sire and dam: Lola's Chance X Roadrunner.
siblings: N/A
owned by: Emma Young.
brief history: Lola was born at a show jumping stable where she was cared for and loved. She won many championships in show jumping and hunters until she was older and turned into a school horse. Emma learned how to ride at this show jumping stable, since her foster family owned and ran this establishment. She learned how to jump on Lola, and Lola was left in the barn when the family left her. There was a note left with her saying that Lola now belonged to Emma. So now, Emma plans on moving her and Max to Blue Acres for more training. [/font][/ul]
[/font]:[/b] Oatmeal, spending time with Emma and jumping fences.

weaknesses: Since Emma got her as a present, she is a little protective of her.
fears: Being left alone again.
habits: follow Emma around all day and nickering.
overall personality: Lola is basically bomb-proof since she was trained by kind hearted people. She loves taking little kids around the show ring and loves being in the jumper ring. [/ul]

[/font]:[/b] Emma Scarlett Young
nicknames: Emmy.
age: 9. September 1st, 2006
religion: Too young to have one.
sexuality: Too young, but going to be straight.
marital status: single.
occupation: Student.
playby: Sabrina Carpenter.
hometown: Munich, Germany.
parents: James Young and Bailee Young. (father is in jail and mother is dead)
siblings: Only child.
brief history: Emma's father James, was sentenced to jail for life. He killed 10 people, one of which was his wife. Before that, James and Bailee were in love, which is how Emma came to be. Unfortunately, she was a mistake and James wanted to put her up for adoption and when Bailee refused, she ran off to Hickstead, taking young Emma with her. She raised Emma by herself, having little help from the rest of her family. Everyone in the family thought everything was alright between the two of them and had no idea the abuse that was going on. Since James was very good at hiding his secret, he went to Hickstead one day and shot Bailee while Emma was asleep. Emma was only three years old at that point, so she went into the foster system, where she still is now. She switched foster families often, since the families said she was too shy and closed off. Thankfully, one of her foster families were avid riders, so that is how she learned how to ride. She has two ponies, which her foster family bought her when she started to be pretty good at riding. She started to feel good about being in that family, until one day they left her without saying anything. She is now at the orphanage and boards her two ponies and boards them at Blue Acres.
