Serenity snorted and nosed the leather,the bit jangled again,and her eyes widened,but she didn't run.

Hailey very carefully held the bridle as the horse nudged it. The bit jingled and she looked very unnerved by that small fact, but thankfully she was steady and didn't react other then looking a bit scared. Hailey changed her grip on it, so the filly could look at it being stretched out and moved about to show that it was easy to move in and not harmful to her. Hailey held it out so she could see where her head would fit in and so on. "its ok, it's not going to hurt you."Hailey cooed, talking quietly to the new horse.
Da Vinci was as far up against the fence as he could possibly be. If he was any closer he might possibly push himself through it to get beside Hailey. The filly seemed a bit scared and uneasy about the bridle, but for the most part she was better about being around it then most horses.

Da Vinci's ears perked up as she spoke to him, asking what it was and what she would do with it. "It's a bridle and it will allow her to direct you when you’re wearing it. It fits over your face, and the metal part fits in your mouth." he said quietly in a calm tone as he watched Hailey. "She's hoping to get you used to it so she can put it on you. It won't hurt, but it will definitely feel strange." he said, watching her quietly then. He didn't know what she'd think about that, but if he assured her it wouldn't hurt her then maybe she'd let Hailey put it on her.
Hailey carefully got down from the fence and was inside the pen with the mare. She eased toward her and tried to slip the birdle on the creature's ehad as she was calm and coolected.

Serenity barley listened her eyes watched Hailey move toward her.The leather slipped over her head,she only objected to the bit,but didn't run nor buck,nor bite.She stood,this was going easy.The cold in her mouth annoyed her,but she made no move to charge.

Hailey smiled slightly as there was only a tiny little bit of rejection as Hailey eased the bridle onto the filly's face. This was good. She didn't freak out or act against her. Hailey stepped back a bit, letting her get used to the cold metal bit that rested in her mouth. She carefully held up the saddle and let the mare observe it a bit as she got used to the bridle on her delicate face. She held the saddle firmly hoping this would go just as easily.
"See? It's not bad." Da Vinci said in calm, somewhat happy tones. He was only somewhat happy because this was all the easy part. Getting the creature tacked wasn't usually too difficult, a little uncomfortable yes but pretty easy. There was no fear of things too different, but when the task to try riding came along he was a bit bothered.

Again she was calm as Hailey offered her the saddle and it didn't jingle like the bridle had so she didn't seem to be afraid of it. Hailey carefully put it on her back and tightened the girth a bit, but stepped back to give her some room. This was almost being too easy and it bothered her a bit, it was never this easy. The filly was so calm after showing the strength and endurance she'd had earlier. There was something going to go horribly wrong but it only further Hailey's curiosity to see if she could control the mare. She carefully brought the reins over her head and stood on the rails before putting her foot in one of the stirrups.

As soon as weight heavied in the saddle,Serenity spun with a series of twirling,swirling,flying bucks.Her head ducked,and her hindlegs flew,trying to rid the weight.

Hailey jumped back, almost stumbling as she pulled her foot out of the stirrup. Here was where she figured it would get hard and she was correct. The filly was young and had tones of energy. It's not like she was an older horse that was easy to handle and didn’t bother fighting back. She was fiery and had energy to burn and anger to use. Hailey jumped back on the stirrup and sunk down onto the saddle. She pulled at the reins and held on tight, as the horse slowed but was sure to start right up again with her series of kicks, spins and jumps. Whatever she chose to do, Hailey was on tightly and ready for it.
