Chapter 6: Black Beauty (I).

"Oh lovely-! Well then you may take your pick!"


Miss Charlie Green kindly pointed at all the available horses they have urging Rowan to take a pick at their pride and joy of breeds. "We have here our horse Peanut, great with stamina and speed when it comes to running."

As the two walked together side by side, every time that Rowan took interest in a horse Miss Charlie would cheerfully explain each one of their traits.

"And over here is Coconut, a fine horse but hard to tame. A good military grade companion like her is hard to find, she can jump the highest out of all of our horses but she's rather slow."


"A-Ah... I see." (Rowan) mutters out rather nervously, seeing all of these horses that were out of her budget made her feel heavy and hesitant of even looking at them.


"I know a lot of these horses, each one would suit you if I'm being honest!" (Miss Charlie) smiles so kindly as she replies.


"I don't want to trouble you but... I suppose which one out of all of your horses that- no one likes." (Rowan) scratches the back of her neck, thinking that if she finds a horse that no one wants the price she needs to pay would be lower.


Miss Charlie hearing her request for what horse she wanted made her think, "A horse that no one wants? Are you sure about that? If it's a horse that no one else wants we sure have em."

The red haired girl was happy to hear that there was one available. "I would like to take it if you wouldn't mind."


Surely Miss Charlie would give her the weakest, cheapest and uncoordinated horse in the herd. "I'm... not sure if you're goin' to like this, you see- instead of telling you it would be better if I could show you why."


The young miss of the estate leads her to another pen, it was an open field pen where a few workers were tending to groom the horses such as cleaning, brushing the horse's manes and fixing their horseshoe by replacing them with new pairs.


Clack! Clack! Clack!


The sound of metal pounding could be heard as they got in, the other caretakers of the horses waved at the young miss. It wasn't very unusual for her to visit but the new handsome visitor caught them off guard.

"Young miss, welcome! Is that a guest with you?!" An elderly worker yelled in greetings as Miss Charlie waves at them.


"Yes, this is my guest. They saved me from a bit of trouble in the city and I heard that they wanted a horse so I'm going to introduce them to Spirit!" She replied loudly so that the elderly man could hear her.


The man hears what she said, introducing a stranger to Spirit- the untameable horse, where many buyers ordered for it to be returned as well as refunded for being a disobedient horse because no matter what they tried they couldn't tame it's will of steel.

"Spirit- our black beauty, going to introduce it to this man you say?! Hahaha! Goodluck lad! This I gotta see!" The elderly worker called out the others, proposing that there would be a show coming soon in the open pen.
