Optional Training: Worst fear discovered

It was the second week they'd been working with the black three year old. He'd been settling in quite nicely for having such a rough start. They'd been working on slowly de-sensitizing him, and it sure did take a long time because of his feral past. Loud noises tended to spook him and he'd either rush towards the sound with flattened ears and sharp teeth, or dance away nervously head raised and rolling eyes. He'd gotten over the tarp's crinkling sound, and reluctantly walked on it with her even so much as to let her settle it over him after a few attempts. This was his fourth time being ponied on just a halter around the vast privately owned acres of field and forest. Leona was riding the young red roan, ponying the still growing black stallion. Without any mares around, Coriolanus seemed to settle in happily between the two roan stallions free to tease and poke at them. They'd set up an electrical wire above the fences and lead him up to it. He'd willingly touched the wire and it'd zapped him. He snorted, shook his head and so far had decided hadn't jumped a fence so long as the wire was there. It helped that he'd been put in a pasture between Talal and Jasper so he didn't have to look far for company.

Everything was going fine until some kid riding a stupid New Ray Honda motorbike thundered right behind them. The black stallion flipped. His eyes rolled in his head as he jerked up forcing Mikayla to let go of the rope else she traumatize him with halter burns. The kid in the bike circled the riders for a moment, and they could glimpse some brown-eyed snot nosed brat laughing at them before veering away further down private trail.

"What the-"
"Leona, memorize the plates and call the cops. Go back to the stables! Go!" Mikayla turned Talal and raced after the black waler.
