None of the horses really caught Ginny's eye. After seeing almost every horse Ginny was almost ready to give up her search. Her eyes darted towards a tall horse standing alone in a pen with his head high next to the fence. No one seemed to look at the Stallion but he was beautiful in every way and just seemed to be waiting for someone to notice him. He had a beautiful bay coat upon his back that shined from a recent grooming. Ginny smiled at the lovely stallion walking over to his head. The stallion nudged her as if looking for attention making Ginny laugh. " You like attention don't you boy?" she said with a smirk rubbing his neck with a gentle touch.
"Ah you like Tommaro" Said a man with a heavy Irish accent. Ginny looked up from the stallion long enough to see the man with short red hair. "How much for him" Ginny said, in a loving voice still stroking the bays clean coat. "2,000 and he's your" that was a lot of money to Ginny. He was younger than most of the stallions here however so he must have had a bit of a spirit not to be bought already. "1,500 or nothing" She said stepping away from the stallion to how her seriousness. Tommaro snorted his distaste for her to stop giving him attention and stomped his hoof impatiently. With a throw of his head and a whinny everyone looked towards the red haired man and Ginny.
The red head man looked around with unease that everyone and then nodded. Ginny smiled and wrote out a check for the man before taking a lead for the Bay. The stallion was happy to see her back. Ginny lead him easily through the crowed everyone seemed to be staring at the tall stallion whose ears were pressed forward making him look incredibly beautiful. After loading him up Ginny left for the stallion barn knowing that, that's where she would need to board the Stallion.

Chuck decided to buy the Oldenburg gelding. He seemed to have a good personality and would make a good competition horse. I'll give you $1500 for him. The owner nodded in agreement, and the cheque passed hands. Then it was time for the palomino that he saw. Young and untrained, Chuck wondered if he should buy the horse for Melissa. His mind and heart said different things, and he decided that yes, he would buy the little palomino. I see you like him. For $1400 he's yours. Chuck nodded and wrote out another cheque. Money was no issue for him.Here you go. Chuck haltered the gelding and went to go fetch his Oldenburg as well. They boxed well, and soon the trio were leaving the auction house
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bella saw the silver gelding being led away. At least he now had an owner that would love and care for him. She hoped at least. Andrew had gone to look at the other horses, and she saw him wave excitedly from the other side of the Auction. Approaching she saw a small black pony. Not too big, but looked as if he had spunk in him. He measured at about 14 hands, a bit too small for Bella, but she wasn't too tall, and she had stopped growing. I've spoken to dad. He says if you want to take on another horse, then he'll fund you. Andrew said. The pony had come over, and was demanding some attention. Bella played with his forelock, and smiled at Andrew. Even if the pony didn't work out, she could always sell him on.
Are you serious? Dad actually deposited money in my account for another horse. Bella couldn't believe it. She turned to the person there, and asked how much he was going for. $1000. The price was steep, but she wrote it out in any case. Thank heavens that there were father's in the world. I'll go fetch the trailer. Just stay here.

The aution was starting to quiet down, which was good for Evangeline. She wasn't really one for crowds. She walked alone, hands thrusted deeply in the pokets of her jacket. There were very little horses left, most were being led away by their new owners. She saw a few she liked, shame they were already sold. Evangeline walked up to the first horse she saw, examining the mare closely. A dressage horse, not something she had that much interest in. The mare squealed and walked around the arena, ears flat. Evangeline smirked. An attitude. Hm, she liked that, though. The challenge of a moody horse. "Come here, you." She said, clicking her tongue and approaching the grumpy mare slowly. "You want her?" A man asked, walking towards her with a large smile. "She is all yours for $2000."
Evangeline laughed loudly, not caring how rude it may seem. "$2000 for a mare like that? With that attitude? No way. She'll need loads of work, I am not paying more then $1500." The man grumbled and looked Evangeline over with a glare. "Fine. Deal." Evengeline grinned and nodded in satisfactory, haltering the mare and leading her from the arena. "Come on, girly. You are about to learn who's boss." As she walked towards the fairgrounds exit, Evangeline heard a desprate whinny to her right. Eva glanced over and there she found the most beautful mustang mare she had ever seen. "Ah. You are going to buy her." A short, plump lady said more then asked. "I know you are." Evangeline hated the way the woman just assumed. She sighed, she was right, though. "How much?" The woman shrugged. "This mare has loads of potential. I'd say around $1000. She needs some sprucing up in the arena, but she is started." Evangeline walked over and looked to the mustang. She was built like a true stock horse should be. "I'll take her."
