Tari looked mischeiviously at Gai. Her eyes sparked with a lively flare.
"Well, how about some high speed pursuits? Me on horseback you on foot. Jazz needs to sharpen up his skills?" Tari said a livelyness about her
She continued holding the door open, waiting for Mitsuko.

(((Sorry for not posting sooner, my internet kicked me off last night.)))
Mitsuko followed both of them out the doors. "We're going out here? Ok." He said wondering what they were going to do outside.
Soon after that, he found his answer. "Do you mean that you are going to ride your horse, and I'm supposed to keep up by running?" He asked. "Or did you have something else planned? What are we going to do?"
As he waited for the answer, Mitsuko stood there on the moutain, looking up into the sky. The sun was shining brightly an there were few clouds in the sky, but on top of the mountain, it was still cool.

As they got outside Gai suddenly relized something. "Hey, what do you mean that Jazz needs to sharpen his skills, and you on horse back and me on foot. You're not gonna go all Amazon Woman on me again and try to kill me are you?" he asked with a very nervious tone in his voice.

Tari shot Gai a skeptical look. Her eyes were sarcastic with an outline of fun. Her hair continued to gleam in its tightly strapped bun.
Releasing the door with a thud, Tari exited the building. Her face seemed to glow as the cool wind, nipped at her cheeks and yet the sun warmed them. Her uniform rippled like water would in a light breeze. Her short quick stride transformed into a long graceful pace, leading her to Jazz's side.
"Well, we just take him to the cavalry training facility, they have jumps set up. All you do is try to out run. Take sharp turns, hide behind things, jump over things. Just so Jazz can keep his pursuit skills up a bit." Tari hastily informed them
Her hands were loosely clasped around Jazz's reins. Jazz began getting anxious, bobbing his head up and down and flicking his tail.

"Oh boy. Just what I always wanted. To be chased around by a millitary horse. I hope you don't plan on doing any attacking while you're chaseing us. I really don't want you going all evil Amozon Woman on me again. It's kind of scary." he said as he began to walk through the doors to the cavalry training facility.
Perfect, I really don't want to spend my day being chased around a pen by a horse and a crazy woman general. Oh well what can I do. Like I said. She's a woman and I'm just a man. he tought to himself. He was quick, but not sure if he was quick enough to out run a horse.

"Ok, I guess I'll do it." Mitsuko said as they started off to the calvary training area. It was just a short walk before they were up to the large doors of the calvary training facility. They were made lagre enough for big horses to get through. Mitsuko unlocked and opened the doors for Tari and Gai. They walked through a short hallway before coming back outside again into one of the main training areas.
"We're here. We can start now." Mitsuko told them.
(((Sorry that there wasn't much to post, I don't really know what we will be doing next.)))

Tari led the perfectly behaved stallion through the halls, he knew what was going to happen. He plodded along nicely, raising his high into the air.
Tari looked at Gai, a playfull expression washing over her face. "Amazon woman? Not really, we're just going to be chasing you slowly...then we'll be done and we can go tran on the rifle range!"
Bursting through large doors, a dirt made course appeared. It was large, very large. Several men were walking horses, but it was obvious that Jazz owned the place.

Once everyone was ready, and Tari was on Jazz's back, Mitsuko started them off. "So, you're going to cahse me?" Mitsuko said to Tari as he started off.
He quickly ran down one of open paths. Eventually, he came up to an area with some obstacales. He jumped behind one of the short walls and waited. As he sat there to catch his breath, he peered from behind the wall to see if Tari was coming his way.

Tari sat ready on Jazz, this was more of a game to her then serious training. The reins were loose and looping along Jazz's neck. She leaned forward in the saddle, eyes glittering with fun and excitement.
Jazz was breathing softly, his muscles tense, ready to blast. Without any firm asking Jazz reared, hooves flailing, haunches overflwoing with speed and power.
"Yah! Go Jazz!" Tari shouted, while thrusting her hands her forward on Jazz's neck
Feeling the extra rein, Jazz threw out his neck and propelled himself forward. His stride was short and powerful as he began slowly picking up ground for a sprint. HIs legs churned under him as Tari sat urging him on. His golden mane whipped back like Tari's hair. He had gone tweleve strides when he began reaching further, and really getting into speed.
They roared around a slight bend in the path, dark splotches of mud spraying through the air behind them. Tari smiled widely, she felt as if she had been set free wehn Jazz galloped, when the two became one force, moving together.

As the horse ran after Mitsuko, Gai took the oppertunite to go in the opposite direction.He ran, all the way to the other side of the room and to make things a little interesting he decided to melt into the shadows.
If she truely was a skilledCavarly woman then she would be able to reconize a camoflodged man if she wanted to. Even if she was on horseback.

As Mitsuko was looking aroung the wall, He saw Tari on the huge horse sppeding straight towards him. I better get out of here. He thought as he saw Tari coming.
Staying low, under the wall, Mitsuko started to sneak away. I wonder where Gai is hiding right now. If I find him, this won't be as hard. Mitsuko thought as he ran as quickly as he could while still staying out of sight.
(((Sorry about the shortness. Not much to say.)))

The drumming hooves now were a consistant rythym beating along the path. A wall was only a few stride ahead, and coming quickly.
Tari's smile hadn't faded, she was having a lot of fun. Skillfully, she gathered the leather reins in her hands, shortening them a notch, preparing for the jump. Wind snapped at Tari's face as she sped along. The wall was only four strides away and coming quickly.
Jazz gathered his churning legs, planting his back feet on the ground, and kicking back up with them, front legs curled under his stomach. HIs mane whipped back, his eyes narrowed with determination. His large, lean body sliced through the air as he soared over the jump. He landed heavily, but nicely, his hooves landing within inches of Mitsuko's face.
"Hi there." Tari called to the fleeing Mitsuko in a playful voice.

"Uh... Wrong way!" Mitsuko said as the horse landed right in front of him, nearly missing him. He then turned around and startewd to run as fast as he could in the other direction. Dang! That was close! He thought as he ran.
Eventually, after a short distance of running, Mitsuko came upon a tree. He stopped running and looked up it. Perfect for climbing! He thought as he stared up into the leaf covered branches. After looking back to see where Tari was, Mitsuko jumped up, and grabbing one of the branches, pulled himself up into the tree. He then climbed up higher in the tree so that he couldn't be seen as easily. This should be safe up here. He thought as he waited.
