(Roelynn's P.O.V.)
I trotted the horse over the forest pathway. In the distance I saw the wagons and caravans from the Lee family. I was here to get my friend. As I came up closer to the caravans, Ansel spotted me. Glancing over his shoulder before making his way over to me with his fellpony named Ginny. I smile and pet the little mare over her blaze before greeting Ansel. "Did you steal that horse?" He asked as he got on the back of Ginny. "No I borrowed him" I replied back trying to sound sincere. But Ansel knew me better. He raised an eyebrow at me before asking me a peculier question. "So you're not going to trade in the gelding for Blue-Eye?". I looked at him for a moment, not answering him. "Considering we don't have any money". "Well" I whispered and scratched my head, "you stole money of your father?" Ansel asked completely shocked, "technically its the money that he sold Blue-Eye for. And considering she is my horse, its my money" I tried to tell him and not sound like a complete criminal. "If that is what makes you sleep at night" he snickered at me, "telling yourself you are not a common thief". "I recall the time you had made me stand watch while you nicked some sweets" I told him, reminding him he wasn't a goody-two-shoes either. I then decided to grab the documents of the stable from my pocket. I looked over the paper, reading the stable name I had memorized now. Before handing the file to Ansel. His eyes scanned the paper, a flicker of familiarity shined in his eyes. "I know that stable. It's where my brother did some trades" he said excited. Then he motioned for me to follow him. And so we went on our way to the stable that undoubtedly had Blue-Eye. Without being spotted by Ansel's parents. We left to go to the stables, to get Blue-Eye back.

Meanwhile

(Tommy's P.O.V.)
I was pacing back and forth through my office. Trailing my hands through my hand in deep thoughts. Meanwhile my family kept rightfully asking questions about Blue-eye's whereabouts, to get even the slightest possibility of where Roe is headed. Specifically, Polly. But I had no idea. The document that held all the information of the stables I sold Blue-Eye to was of course stolen by Roelynn. And due to me being so caught up with Roe running away to find her horse, my brain couldn't calm down to think properly. Polly stepped forward to speak "how many stables are in Birmingham's vacinity?". I thought for a second before answering "around a dozen". "What did you sell Blue-Eye for?" Polly continued, "as a breeding mare". "And how many of those stables are breeding-stables?". Then finally my brain began to work again. "Only 1" I answered, "the Arilo breeding farm". "Then that's where we are headed" Polly said in a matter of fact tone. And there was no hesitation to wait from her side. The whole family grabbed their coats and jackets before walking outside to the cars. All of a sudden when I opened my car door, another car came onto my drive-way with urgency. I glanced to my brothers with an unsure look. "What the hell is this?" Arthur asked confused as we watched the Lee family get out the cars. "Where is he?!" Zilpha yelled angrily as she stormed towards me, "Where is my son!". I looked towards Polly, immediatly knowing where Ansel Lee was. Well more precisely, with who she was. I sighed and began to explain the situation. I had sold Blue-Eye and Roe was going to get her back. And clearly she had told Ansel about this aswell, and the boy had agreed to come along. "My god they are going to be a bloody handfull when they are teenagers, aren't they" Zilpha said rubbing her temple.
