Serenity had planned this all out, and her first idea had been to used to outdoor arena, but then she was worried that she would be in the way of other riders and Plot would have too many distractions so she had begged Ms Carr to allow her the use of the field that was used to teach the natural horsemanship classes in.
While she had easily left Plot on Campus over Christmas, she had no intention of leaving the mare out of work for an entire three months, so what little time she had left on the campus; she was going to use to get Plot used to the idea of getting onto a float, without using an actual float at first of course, without the mare losing the plot.
She had set the field up already, using jump stands and poles to create a six foot high tunnel that ended at the fence. Now, the thing was to convince Plot to be ok with being led into the tunnel. part of her hoped to end it all with the mare going in by herself and then back out calmly, but she wasn't going to count her chickens before they hatched. As soon as she had this part of things working smoothly, she would ask Ms Carr if she could borrow the academy horse truck to load and unload the mare; knowing that their parents would either be driving up their own horse truck or sending out a transporter to collect her and Tommy's horses.
The blonde finally led the bay mare into the field and worked her at the end away from the tunnel, just working through the normal routine of handling, getting the mare to work at liberty and things like that. As soon as Plot seemed as cool, calm and collected as she got, Reni knew it was time to lead her over to have a look at the tunnel.
