The First Touch
Only the most reliable will be awarded with the true love of an untamed creature.

Jacinta was always arrogant and pretty desinterested in doing things at home or in the school first. Rhoda, one of the girls living in her street, showed her then how great it can be to help other people, but as soon as Rhoda was gone again, Jacinta started to ignore her duties soon and felt left back, because Rhoda, her only real friend, disappeared from one day to another.
When a strange letter arrived, Jacinta couldn't believe what Rhoda actually wrote there. She had captured a Neravontii? and she manages to ride it now? Jacinta was curious about those creatures and actually that was the first time she was really curious.

Several days after the letter arrived...
Jacinta left the house and took the old bike that leaned at the house's wall. She normally didn't took a bike to get somewhere, but it was the only way to the facility, Rhoda wrote about. While she drove through the woods, Jazz had a bad feeling and felt eyes on her the hole time. Then suddenly the bike cracked and the front wheel broke out of it's retainer. Jazz fell and her right wrist started to hurt. "Ouch!", she screamed and got up into a sitting position. From the undergrowth she heard strange noises, but actually she wasn't really up to that. Her wrist ached and Jacinta tried not to cry. It wasn't exactly easy, but she stood the pain. Then something slowly came out of the undergrowth and "looked" at her. Jazz was spooked and fell backwards. A large creature stood in front of her.
'Oh my gosh, what's this?' the girl thought and stared at the animal in shock.
Instead of being shy and reserved, the creature approached her and it's muzzle almost touched Jacinta's cheek. Frozen in motion the girl couldn't do anything, until something came to her mind. 'Could this be a Neravontii? The animal Rhoda wrote about...' the idea came to her mind and stuck there.
Jazz wondered if the creature could see her since it seemed to lack eyes. "The shard like markings on your back look like sapphires. Beautiful." Jazz said and didn't noticed that she got up and stood next to the Neravontii. Fascinated she touched the markings on the creatures' back. For a moment the Neravontii jerked, but then enjoyed the soft stroking of Jazz' hand.
When she realized what she did, Jacinta didn't stopped but moved on to the Neravontii's head, where she slowly touched the creatures' snout.
"I think we found a liking to each other, don't we?", Jacinta asked softly and added then "I think I will name you Saphir." The Neravontii seemed to nod and put his snout against Jacinta's cheek.

The First Saddle
Every time you fail, you have to grab the lead again and try for the next time.

Jacinta visited Saphir almost every day. She was right actually. Saphir was a Neravontii.
Jazz was really surprised when Rhoda suddenly came out of nowhere with her Neravontii Electricity some days ago. Her best friend explained Jazz what happened and told her that it would be best to bring Saphir to the facility first. Although Electricity wasn't that amazed by carrying two riders on her back, she allowed Jacinta to stay on too. Saphir followed them like a puppy.

Now Saphir is at the Neravontii facility and shares a pasture with Electricity. They actually get along pretty well, like their owners do. And Saphir likes water even more than Electricity. Saphir can be pretty stubborn and since he is really strong and brave too, Jazz can't hold him back sometimes. It was only yesterday that she tried to put a bridle onto Saphir and it failed badly...Let's see how they do now.

Jacinta walked into the pasture and greeted El and Rhoda before she walked towards Saphir. He looked at her with a cheeky expression, but followed her to the arena. As soon as Jazz had closed the gate, Saphir ran off and raced around the sandy hall.
"Saphir, come here boy!"
But the Neravontii kept on running. Jacinta went after him, but actually it was silly to try to catch a creature that was pretty fast on his feet.
Every time Jazz almost managed to put the bridle onto him, he somehow broke loose and made his owner mad. Saphir had fun and kidded around like a clown. But Jazz wasn't in the mood and the next time she got near Saphir, the girl got rough and forced the Neravontii into the bridle. Saphir started to buck, but he couldn't get the bridle off of his head and finally accepted the thing.
The next few days weren't exactly easy for Jacinta, but she had to teach some discipline to her Neravontii, because he simply wouldn't behave himself. He even got aggressive sometimes, maybe because he was frustrated that it wasn't only about his mind anymore.
Jazz put the bridle onto Saphir every day now and it got better. About a month after she started working with Saphir it was the time to saddle him for the first time. Jazz was nervous when she walked into the arena with the saddle. Saphir trotted towards her and sniffed at the saddle. Curiously he tasted it, because he had never smelled such a thing. Jazz told her Neravontii to lay down and he obeyed. First Jazz only stroked his neck before she put the saddle over his back. Saphir winced and jumped to his feet, but then stood calmly again. Quickly Jacinta fixed the saddle girth and stumbled back, because Saphir was about to explode. She was right. The Neravontii jumped into the air and bucked around.
"It is going to be funny to ride him later on..." Jacinta mumbled and lowered her head.
For the next week Jacinta did some groundwork with Saphir, because he responded well to saddle and bridle now. He accepted the tack really good.
And for the first time Jazz really cuddled with someone.

The First Ride
What would you call easy? Eating? Nothing's easy, okay?!

Jazz really wanted to ride her Neravontii. Eventually it was time to step into the lion's den.
The girl put on her riding clothes and walked over to Saphir. She had ridden on horses before and sat on Electricity for some minutes, but this would be different.
Jacinta saddled Saphir and stroked his neck before she told the Neravontii to lay down. Still stroking him, Jacinta leaned over his neck and touched his flanks with her foot. Saphir was calm and didn't mind Jazz' foot where it was. The girl finally gathered some courage and put her leg over the saddle.
Suddenly everything happened in split seconds. The Neravontii immediatly jumped to his feet and bucked Jacinta off of his back. The girl hurt her shoulder and looked at Saphir. He stood there and seemed to laugh.
"Do you think this is funny?! You're useless!"
Then Saphir looked at her as if he was offended by her words. Calmly he walked over to her again and layed down. Desinterested Jacinta walked away from the Neravontii and stared at him. Saphir was puzzled, because he couldn't understand Jazz.
Some minutes later Jacinta got back onto Saphir's back. When she told him to get up, the Neravontii wanted to ran off, but Jacinta grabbed the reins tightly and stayed on.
But Saphir had too much stamina and finally Jazz fell off again, because Saphir didn't stopped to buck.

The next few days were hard again. Jacinta wasn't able to stay on Saphir's back. He was ok with the girl sitting on his back, but as soon as he stood up, Saphir started to buck recklessly.
Jacinta cried a lot and Rhoda couldn't help her best friend.

Almost three weeks after Jazz mounted Saphir for the first time, her arms, legs and chest were full of bruises and everything ached. This morning Jacinta only threw some food into his bucket and wanted to get away from the Neravontii, but Saphy grabbed Jazz' sweater and pulled her backwards.
"I don't want to ride you anymore" the girl whispered and wanted to get out, but the Neravontii pulled her back again. He walked over to the saddle and rubbed his head against it.
Although Jazz feared to mount him again, the girl saddled Saphir anyways and even mounted him again. Something was different this day and the creature didn't started to buck.
Jacinta rode some rounds before she hugged Saphir from atop.

The curse was broken. Saphir finally listened to Jacinta and she was extremely happy.

Let's see what the future holds for these two personalities.
