Story:
Ever since Honeycomb as had her early birth foal, Kick Start she has been viscous towards any horse that goes near her foal. He was born very small though is perfectly healthy, when they both recovered enough to go into pasture with other horses, Honeycomb almost seemed proud to introduce her herd to her new foal but was sadly disappointed when they started nipping at him and chasing him off. At that point she won't let any horses near her new foal not even her foals father, Vinnie or her close horse friends like Rowan. She became so bad that she had to be put alone in her pasture with her foal while the ranch had to discuss taking her foal away to be raised by them. On one morning a careless ranch hand had forgotten that no other horse was to be put in the pasture with her and had brought to other foals that were both old enough to be separated from their own mothers. They have never seen the newborn and when they saw him they of course came charging up to meet him. The foal was very shy of horses from past experiences and went straight to his mother who hid him with her tail. With ears back she whinnied loudly as a warning towards the incoming foals. At the noise a rider named Chelsea came out and was horrified to see what was to come, she quickly grabbed a first aid and rope expecting the worse. As she ran over to the fence she seen the foals hesitating to past the invisible boundary that the mare has set. She was about to try to get the foals out when another handler stopped her
" Don't let them figure this out on their own."
"Are you serious? Honeycomb will chew them up and spit them out if I don't get them out."
"If she was going to do that she would have already done it by now, just watch."
I did as he bid and watched nervously, hoping that she won't hurt the foals. Jazz slowly moved forward being followed by Tala. They stopped and backed away when the mare would show that they were to close. They kept doing this until the mare let them closer but she would occasionally chase them away or show discomfort. Jazz came even closer almost right beside Honeycomb who was intensively watching her. Jazz bowed her head and moved her head towards Honeycomb's mane to groom her.

Chelsea nearly fell from the fence at seeing this. She looked sideways at the handler which gave her a smirk.
"How did you know?"
"Well I didn't really but figured that since she was a mother she would react better towards another foal and there is no better foal that can calm an nervous horse then Jazz; her friendly personality is infectious."
"Huh I guess that does make since." Chelsea looks back at the horses which now are all grooming, even Kick Start was welcomed by Jazz which then was equally accepted by Tala. Chelsea smiled "Well let's see if Kick Start will like his half-sister Liquor tomorrow shall we?"

Yeah it is kinda boring but hoped you liked it anyways! :P

Liquor is his half-sister, not half-bro
