"You don't care your just gonna leave again" Riley says to her mother quite angry in demeanor.

"It's the job.  What I signed up for. To protect and serve my country" Anastasia tries to convince her daughter.

"What country is that? I'd be in America with my friends if you weren't deployed all the time. And dad actually got a job that is why we had to move here. Because he got promoted for being good at his job and worked hard at it" Riley yells. "I can't"

Riley gets out of the bed and heads to a room she found while exploring with Gaby the day previously when they got bored.

Unhooking her IVs she began to dance.

Little did she notice a set of figures in the window watching her, fascination written in the looks on their faces.

She had her phone playing 'to build a home'.

When it started to play Riley did an Ariel walkover before doing a double back flip on the mat beneath her. 

She figured that mats could suggest that this was the remains of an old room used for physical therapy.

Little did she know it still was.

After landing her double backflip she does a quick glissade; a leap to the side before moving into the position for an Arabesque.

She does a jete before doing a Ariel cartwheel.

The door opens and she freezes.

"Nice dance moves. My names Oliver" he says extending his hand for her to shake once she's turned around, making them face to face. "Oh and this is my twin Olivia"

"Nice to meet you, how much did you see?" Riley asks.

"All of it" Olivia says Riley's cheeks turn cherry red in color.

"Your a really good dancer. You aren't from here are you?" Oliver states and questions.

"I'm from America" Riley confesses.

"Sweet always wanted to bust there. Sounds like a dream in paradise" Olivia says.

"Depends where exactly you live" Riley states "Florida is really warm"

"There you are" Gaby says enters the room.

"Hey Gaby Meet Oliver and Olivia. They're twins." Riley says introducing her friends to one another.

"Your dad is looking for you, he says your being discharged" Gaby states.

"Finally" Riley huffs getting up off the stack of mats she had been sitting on.

"We should hang out sometime, here's my number" Riley says giving both Oliver and Olivia her phone number. "There now we have each other's numbers."

"When can I go to the barn? I need to take care of Athena she probably missed me" Riley asks her dad.

"We need to go check out another horse" her father says.

"Why athena is a perfectly good horse. She's good when it comes to racing, jumping, showing, everything. Dad. I love her so can I just go?" Riley pleads.

"It was recommended by someone that she be bred for her offspring" Her father says. "We are going to look at the stud and then one you can ride while she's busy with the pregnancy"

"Riley" Anastasia yells after her daughter bolts out the door and in the direction of the stables. "Looks like your the least favorite at the moment"

"They can't do this Your my horse. I'm not gonna let them do this to you" Riley coos Athena.

"Hey, Zoe, Jade, and I are having a sleepover on the hay stack tonight you in" Becky asks.

"Yeah could I borrow some clothes I don't wanna be at home right now" Riley says.

"More momma drama" Beck asks as they walk to the tack room.

"No my dad says he wants to breed her, I can't let him do that to Athena" Riley says as they enter the tack room.

"All studs require a vet to say the mare is healthy, I know a vet" Pin says having overheard the conversation.

"Or I could just not let it happen. She's my horse" Riley retorts.

"We just wanna Help" Becky says.

Night had fallen and Zoe was the first to arrive.

"Will you help put Athena out to pasture." Riley asks.

"Which one?" She asks.

"With raven will be fine" she replies that statement going to haunt her later.

Horse hooves could be heard, the clatter on the cobblestone paths of the courtyard.

"Horse thieves" Zoe whispers as she wakes everyone up.

They all go through the barn sneaking around to catch the thieves in the act.

"Nice job Maggie really" The group hears Elliot, Mia's father say.

"Mom" Zoe says jumping up from the hiding spot.

"Dad" Mia says as she walks up with Susie and Rosie.

That's when Athena and Raven start to neigh.

"Athena" Riley yells hopping the fence tackling one of the thieves.

"Zoe" her mother yells as she does the same to a different thieve.

"Riley watch out" Susie yells as she feels a searing pain in her abdomen.

"Don't move" Mia says bending down by Riley.

"Athena she's gone" Riley whispers.

"What happened" Marcus asks as he jumps the fence. "Where's Athena"

"They took her" Mia cries.

"Don't remove or touch the knife" Pin says entering the pasture. "We don't know if it hit anything vital.

"Mia I'm scared" Riley says.

"I know girly. I know. Just hang in there" Mia coos.

"I'll get the best doctor on this island" Elliot says.

"Sam my parents don't get them involved they are going to make you or someone her my legal guardian." Riley says angry at her parents.

"Dr. Trent is almost here" Elliot says to everyone.

"Zoe is she" Riley starts to say but is interrupted.

"I'm ok just worry on staying awake for me will ya" She replies.

"Can you lay this out for me please near the girl" Trent asks Pin and Marcus move the short light weight stainless steel metal table next to Riley.

Once Riley is on it before Marcus and Pin can leave she grabs their hands.

"My dad needs me home Riley I'll visit tomorrow" Pin says as she let's go of his hand.

"Sweetie I need to incubate you so you can breathe better can someone hold her other hand so she can't go for the tube?"

Mia of all people is showing so much compassion for her.

"Thank you" Trent says.

"Note that 10 mills of etomidate and ketamine were given at 22:48" Trent says as he intubates Riley.

Soon enough she was all patched up and fine.

Well besides the fact that her horse was stolen fine.
