The crew were waiting on the ramp to go to town when Zeb spot something in the distance. He said "What's that?" Ezra squinted into the distance, trying to make out the shapes.
A few minutes passed and the shapes got closer. They could finally make out long shapes with long legs. They were about 50 meters away when Ezra suddenly gasped, surprising the others. He started running off the ramp, towards the shapes. The crew looked towards each other before deciding to run after him.
Ezra ran up to the pure white creature and swung up onto the 8 foot tall animal. The crew watched as the other creatures walked up and started rubbing Ezra with their necks. He laughed and grabbed hold of the hair on the neck of the one he was on. He kissed his lips together and the shape moved towards The crew. He stopped a few feet in front of them and said "Meet my herd" "What's a 'herd'?" Hera questioned. "A group of animals" They nodded and Sabine asked "And what creatures are these?" The creature shakes its head and neighs. Ezra laughed and said "Hold it, I'm almost done. Do you mind if they use the others to ride?" The shape nodded his head and stomped his foot. "And to answer your question these are Lothal Horses but their mostly wild. They took me in when I was seven, been friends since then but I lost them a year ago." They were shocked but Kanan asked "You said something about riding?" Ezra nodded and yanked the hair to the side and the horse followed. He walked over, still on the horse, and gathered a few of the horses. He whispered a few things to them and they all followed him over to The crew.
Ezra whistled and the horses knelt down. Ezra smiled and jumped down from the horse. He went to the first horse and said "This is pixie. Hera you will ride her. She's gentle so you'll be ok." He walked pass her to the next one which was a brown one "This is Browner. Kanan you will ride him. He's stubborn but I think he'll listen to you." He horse snickered and Ezra glared at him. "Shut up. We haven't gone on a ride in years." The horse neighed sadly and Ezra walked by to the pitch black, buffy horse. "Zeb, this is Hustle. He's the only one who can hold you" All of the horses snickered and Ezra glared at them. Ezra walked to the white, black, and grey one and said "Sabine this is Mobley. I know you don't want just a simple colored horse." He then gestured the the horse he was riding and said "And this is Legna. She's the boss." They nodded "Ok let's get you on." The crew went to their assigned horse and Ezra said "Just stand over them and they will stand up with you." They did as they were told and they were soon all on. Ezra jumped up in his and said "Ok now gently grab some hair from their neck." They did so and he next said "Now just turn the hair what ever way to want. To stop just pull back and to go, kiss your lips" they nodded stating they got the instructions. He smiled and said "Great now let's run." He suddenly yelled "Yawwwwww!!!" All the horses in the herd jumped and neighed. They all ran in one direction, Ezra leading them, the crew shortly behind.
After a few minutes of riding, Ezra started moving around on Legna. He jumped up into a crouch and slowly stood up.
The crew watched amazed as he stood with out falling. He stretched his arms then turned around to the back and waved causally. He sat back down but still backwards. He leaned against the neck and asked "You enjoying this?" They nodded and Zeb asked "How did you just do that?" "Years of practice" He nodded and Kanan suddenly said "How do you know what their saying?" Ezra smiled and patted the side of the horse. "When we started Jedi training, you taught me about bonds. I realized then that I've bonded with the herd so I understand them" Kanan nodded again and Ezra suddenly asked out of nowhere "Hey, do you still have my saddle?" The horse neighed and changed directions. The crew went off in a different direction and watched Ezra wave and leave.
Ezra arrived at a boulder and he pushed it over with the help of Legna, and saw a hole with his brown leather saddle. It wasn't a normal one though, it was for acrobats. He smiled and grabbed it from the hole. He quickly saddled Legna and they went off. Before they knew it, they saw the herd again. He quickly strapped his legs down and swung his legs over to one side. He dropped back completely, hanging by just his legs like a monkey.
Once The crew caught sight of Ezra, they all gasped in surprise seeing him like that. He caught up with the herd and sat up. But instead of sitting, he wrapped his arms around the middle of the horse and grabbed the handles on the side. He propped his legs up into a handstand. He held it for a minute before coming out and sitting down normally. He shook his head and said "Man! I'm out of practice!" He horses snickered and he said back "You know you missed me!" The horses snickered again.
After a full day of riding and telling stories, they decided to go back to the Ghost. Ezra went up to the Legna and said "I'll come back and visit. Please stay out of trouble and stay away from the city. I'll see you again old friend." Legna neighed and rubbed her face against his, making him smile. He waved bye to the others and walked off with The crew.
Ezra made sure to visit the herd every once in a while, making sure to practice or bring a crew member with him. The herd grew over time and he bonded with each and every one.
