First up let me open the bidding on Bayside, Mockingbird, Dead Empire, Sun Chaser and Drug Trafficker!!

All bids start at $5000.

Maria smiles as she enters the auction before putting down her first bids. She had been so excited about this auction and loads of money to spare today!

Bayside- $5000
Dead Empire- $5000

Melissa entered the ring with her paddle. After a few minutes she put her first bid on Mockingbird. She was so excited about this auction but only 2 horses had attracted her eyes.

Mockingbird - $5,000
Comments:
Wow what a colt. With two of FS's best broodmares in his pedigree not to mention a half-brother to Geronimo. It's hard to find fault with Jay Jay. Beautiful coloring too. Champion is certainly written all over him.

<sup>I bounced, well more like skipped happily into the auction ring, excited about this auction. Even if I didn't get any of the horses that had caught my interest I would still have fun being here. I had never been to Fail Scene Stables and that could be easily detected as I looked around. I shook my head slightly as I reminded myself why I was here and quickly placed my first bid on Mockingbird. I had also liked Drug Trafficker and was still slightly debating if I should bid on him or not, but Mockingbird had caught my attention right off. His markings and colouring had been the first thing I noticed, and I simply adored them!

Mockingbird - $6 000</sup>

I halted the sweaty Geronimo outside the stables and handed him to three grooms. "No water yet, just untack him and brush him down. If theres an empty stall available and it's all right with SB he can go in there." I said. Spartan gave me a hurt look and moped away with the grooms.
I thought SB might like to see him, since she handn't come to Godolphin since the last foal crop, and I didn't want to be late for the auction. I sat down in the seating and raised my paddle. I was really waiting for Belladona and Innoxa, but I thought I minds well try my luck with some others. I had named Mockingbird and Belladona and liked the sounds of them both, so they were on my hit list!

Mockingbird - $7000

A groom rushed up to me as I stood in the stands survering the happenings. "That lady requests her hore t be put in a stall?"Then losing all his proffesional air. "Is that cool?" I smiled and nodded seeing it was Matty he was pointing to. "Yes thats fine, put him in next to Fly High Silver, he'll be comfortable there." I said wondering if the great mare would remember her prodigal son.

The auctioneer smiled, he loved these auctions. He didn't think he would be needing to heckle with the bidders much, they all looked pretty keen. Fine with him, he thought, makes the day a breeze,
"I have 7000 on the lovely Mockingbird, 7000 an we go any higher?
I have 5000 on Bayside and Dead Empire ladies and gentlemen only 5000!"
He said on the podium keeping a sharp eye on the bidders paddles.

Glancing over at SC and then Matty I smiled ready to fight it out to the end for Mockingbird. $8,500 on Mockingbird I called out raising my paddle.

[Matabon]

Geronimo pouted in his stall but soon smelt something familar. Raising his blazed chestnut face he look up at the top of the stall wall. A small gray muzzle was on the otherside and he reached up, sniffing the gray muzzle. The smell of Silver brought foalhood memories of him leaving Silver's Stable as a baby, he was born at Royal Standards and then came home to Godolphin as a weanling. He handn't been back since.
The gray muzzle nudged his chestnut one, and he burred happily, forgetting about being mopey after getting ditched, he had his mom back.

I raised my paddle.

Mockingbird - $9,000

[Melissa]

I raised my paddle again. Tucking a stray dark hair behind my ear I kept my cool. The sounds of cantering hooves was heard and I glanced back to see Stella cantering RS Waylay Attack with I'm Exclusive alongside toward the barn.

Mockingbird - $10,000

Stella's POV
I halted Waylay and pulled up the stirrups. Exclusive looked around at all the strange sights and smells but stayed close to Waylay. Waylay snorted and pricked his ears.

[Matabon]

I raised my paddle.

$11,000

[Melissa]

Raising my paddle again I bidded higher.

$12,000

[Matabon]

Placing my paddle down I smiled at melissa. "You may have him, I really like him but I have to save my money for Belladona! " I said.

[Melissa]

Thanks Matty. She's a good filly. I say smiling not trying to get overconfident since SC might want to go higher for Mockingbird.

<sub>Lauren heard about the auction and couldnt miss it for the world. Dismounting off of Hail 2 Prince she led the lightly sweaty horse at her side. Patting his neck she peeked in at the auction. You have to be kidding me! All the horses she liked were up for auction right now.

Sun Chaser - $5000
Drug Trafficker - $5000</sub>

[Ace]

<sub>Lauren looked around at the others. All three she thought were amazing were up now and she didnt want to seem like a hog. She really liked Mockingbird as well. Should she go for it? Right now she didnt know. She wanted to go for it so bad so what was stopping her? She waited to see if anyone was going to bid.

ooc: When will this part of the auction end?</sub>
