Tony wandered down the aisle of the barn looking at the horses. Near the end of barn he came across the stud he was looking for, CH Ruby in the Smoke. He rested his arms on the stable door and studied the animal. As he turned to greet him Tony patted his nose and stroked the length of his right ear. Hopefully with a bit of luck and persuasion he would soon be in their farm. Tony checked he had his check book with him before admiring the stallion again.

David heard someone around the barn and walked casually into the stallion barn. He saw a check book and his newest stallion. "Can I help you?" He knew he probably wanted to by him or stud him. It was pure luck that he had come across a free Thoroughbred when he entered the raffle. Ruby In the Smoke was the perfect Thoroughbred to start his newest line. He hoped this guy wasn't here to buy, but that's what it looked like.

He cleared his throat and turned towards the man. "I'm goin to make you an offer on your Stallion here." he said pulling out his check book. "I'm willing to go up to $10k for him. So what do you think?"he asked looking him deep in the eyes.

David had to double take. Ten thousand dollars! He'd never sold a horse that high before. "Te..ten thousand?" He stuttered and looked back to see Jessie walk in. "For what?" She asked unaware of his intent to buy there new prize. David pointed at the Thoroughbred. Jessie smiled like it was a joke but something about David's expression make her dart a look to the strange guy who wanted to pay so much for a horse they got for free.

David instantly got serious again, after the shock passed. Jessie patted the stallion on teh neck and he arched his neck over the stall door and sneezed. Jessie patted him again and he tossed his mane. David thought for a moment and finally nodded. After sighing for a second he nodded again. "Ok then. Ten thousand."[/]b he said. He hadn't had the horse that long so he hadn't gotten attached.

Tony smiled, "Good answer." he began to scribble words down on the check and then handed it to David. "I'll come to pick him up later today." he said before quickly leaving for his car.

David nodded and graciously held up the check in front of him. "Thanks, see you later then." he said as he left. He shoved the check in his pocket and told Jessie he'd go cash it later. Then he went inside to the office. Jessie glanced at her now sold Thoroughbred and stroked him softly before a sigh and leave.
