Word Count :: +3 So...she's going out to the area to start working 
Dixie-May wasn’t really sure who was supposed to go with her to the coast to get the ring area ready, but she figured that they’d just meet her out there when the time came. The small woman had no problem with working along for a while if need be. There would be two horses there to help anyway, and everyone knew that she could hang out with horses just as much as luperci without a problem. Her small saddle was put onto Duke’s back along with a few long strands of rope, a bag of food, deer skin gloves and a stomach skin pouch filled with fresh water from their stream.
Hopping up onto the stallion’s back, she yipped softly and bounced a bit when the horse began to move in the direction of the other horses. Bark, the steadily growing colt, came trotting up and lifted his head happily, resting his nose on the girl’s thigh. She smiled and scratched his head a few times before slipping a halter over his ears and nose, securing it and holding onto the end as she turned Duke in the other direction. It was time to get the large colt used to physical work, so he’d be helping with moving large rocks and leveling the ground.
Bark whickered softly to his mother to say goodbye as he followed after Dixie and Duke, hooves lifting happily in a silly prancing trot. He was excited to be going out again with the woman and his horse friend, they always had fun together. After the attack on the pack, Fern had been keeping a close eye on her baby, she was just now relaxing enough for anyone to take the youngster away for any length of time. Digging her heels gently into Duke’s sides, she encouraged him to move faster and leaned forward slightly when he eased into a gentle lope. They’d get to their destination within a few minutes if they kept up the steady pace.
