Like I said in my other story 'Horse Crazy', I'm SO sorry I didn't update sooner. My laptop decided to take a strike, and since it usually acts up and then returns to normal, I thought it'll do it again...But nope. So now I'm stuck with writing and posting my stories through my 'small' phone, and it's not that easy...Anyways, here chapter three!

Chapter Three:


Maya was busy cleaning Cloud Chaser's stall. The old mare was out in the pasture with the other older horses. Maya was overjoyed when she got picked to to care of the mare, yet she could see the others, mostly Zack and Bailey, were not happy she got picked. She obviously knew that Zack wasn't happy because she had to spend a good amount of their free time with the horse. But Bailey? Bailey said that she can take care of the horse if she really wanted to. And Maya had really wanted to, it wasn't her fault Ms. Brooks picked her.

"Hey." Tori said, breaking her out of her thoughts.

Maya turned around to face the girl. "Hey, Tori...What is it?"

"Oh, nothing much...So, where's Cloud Chaser?"

"Out in the pasture, why?"

Tori shrugged. "Just asking." She leaned against the stall door. "So, ya like it here so far?"

Maya nodded. "Yeah, it's pretty cool." She leaned the pitch fork against the wall. "Do you know why Bailey glares at me so much?"

"She's upset. We just came out of a very devastating situation, maybe her doing farm stuff helps her coop. Just like shopping helps London."

Maya shook her head a little. "It still gives her no reason to hate me! She backed down."

"Maybe she was being the bigger person! She backed down to quit further arguement. And maybe she thought you would too."

"Well she thought wrong." Scoffed Maya.

Tori shook her remarked away. "Yeah, well, the rest of us are going to play some board games inside, or horseshoes outside. So when you got done we'll be in either place, okay?"

Maya just nodded in response.

Tori left, leaving Maya alone again.

"Better go get the dang horse." She said, leaving towards the pasture.

~*~Little bit before dinner*~*

The group of friends sat in their usual place in the living room, playing a long, tiring game of Uno.

Jade tiredly layed down a red draw two, in which an annoyed Trina groaned picking two new cards out of the deck.

Beck layed his cards face down on the table. "This has to be the longest game of Uno, I've ever played."

Zack laughed tiredly. "I have to agree with you there. When Cody and I play alone, I got him beaten within ten minutes of the game."

Cody rolled his eyes. "It's because you cheat. Now anyone else just want to call it a tie and do something else?"

Bailey nodded. "Yeah, I pretty good."

Jade threw her cards on the table. "Me too."

Slowly one by one the group left the table with the cards scattered.

Maya stretched her arms and legs. "Who wants to play Monopoly? Or Scrabble? Or-"

She was caught off by an annoyed and tired Cat. "Or we can watch TV. Celebrities Underwater is on!"

Tori, Maya, Bailey, Cody, and Marcus looked at her. "Why would we want to see poor celebrities drown?" Tori asked.

Cat swatted at an imaginary fly. "Oh, they get to the top before they die!"

"Still sounds inhumane. " Cody stated.

"Then we cool people can play Zombie Slayers 3, while you dorks solve math problems." Zack said, heading to the game system.

Just before Zack was three feet to the system, Ms. Brooks called out for dinner.

Quickly the kids scampered to find a good seat.

The chef, who's name turns out to be Parsley, walked out with the long rolling buffet table with him, told him their specials. "Tonight, you feast on finely cooked T-Bone Steak, mash potatoes and a nice French salad on the side. But for those of you who are vegetarians, we got many fruits and vegetables. Now I want the young to oldest ladies first." He lifted each lid off of the different foods. "Now young to eldest gentleman," he said once the girls got theirs. "Enjoy."

"So, day three of this place...And it's still lame." Jade mumbled.

Beck took his hand in hers. "Oh, come one Jade, by the end of tomorrow, you'll love this place."

Again, I own nothing but the plot, people who were not in either shows, and the horses. And before you say it's not possible for an 'Uno' game to go on for a long time, it is. Personal experance. And it depends on how the players play their cards
