"If I could escape I would but, first of all, let me say I must apologize for acting stank and treating you this way...." The brown ponytails of a petite girl was carried over by the wind, reaching the far corners of the earth. She was here mainly because she wanted to watch the horses; and she liked them, since it saved the earth some so people won't travel in those disgusting cars that polluted the air with the gas that they push out of their pipes. The lady believed that everyone should help cut down the waste that they pour into the sewers, in which it's carried into the beautiful ocena. Oh, she will be pissed if she sees oil and garbage pieces in the water. They belong where the belong; the trashcan.

Looking down at her dress, she began to play around with the frills, not liking girly clothes at all, but since she's at this academy because of her family's wealth, not because of her longings and goals. Victoria herself was an intelligent girl, probably being one of the smartest in the academy, but her mind processed very slowly when it came to making decisions around her friends -- anyone for that matter. She didn't have a butler yet, so she was kind of free, and with how she looks, the males here constantly asked her if she wanted to be their lady, and she turns them down, because asking her simply won't work, and she needs to be able to know you for a while before trusting you. Letting a sigh roll out of her mouth, she stood up, walking over to the fence as he placed her porcelain hands onto the white fence.

The only thing that set her off was that one of the horses from the nearby stables was going crazy, raising it's hooves as they slammed into her right arm, the pain too much as she fell down onto the ground, the nearby people trying to help, but the horse kept on going crazy. She couldn't help herself up, because her right arm was the dominant hand, and without that, she couldn't do anything. So she just layed there in pain.

Why did he become a butler? No, it was better off asking why did his Uncle make him one? It was something the dark-haired teenager wanted to ask, but as he was now at the Academy he couldn't just leave to go see his Uncle and ask. It was better then nothing, he guessed. He was a poor person without parents and even no memory of them, trying to find the hit-and-run killer, but that wasn't going do well. Though he had better things to do then search for a killer He had a Lady, Gene, and had to work and help her and he wouldn't leave for his own selfish reasons, that was just wrong.

Once again he found himself lost. His tanned hand rubbed the back of his neck as he looked around, trying to figure out where he turned wrong, or didn't turn but it seemed like a hopeless matter. So much for returning to the room to see if Gene was there, but at the stables, she might be there. Alexander's sliver-gold eyes looked at the building before walking towards it, placing one of his hands into the pockets of his jacket. It seemed nice and peaceful, and somewhere he'd end up going when he wanted to be alone. As the scent of horses reached his noise, and other smells he turned his head a little. It was a smell he didn't have around him often, though he'd been around horses a lot he didn't enjoy much of the stinky smell which came from the stalls.

Hearing what seemed like a scream, he saw a girl on the ground and his eyes widen. Watching the horse, he was unsure if it'll be smart to calm it or not, but the Lady might be badly hurt. Was he walked towards the horse, feeling teeth dig into his arm, he winced a little, but Alexander's tanned fingers meet with the halter and he tugged down on it to try ring the animal's head down so it couldn't do anything, though maybe it could back but wouldn't be that bad, right? A stable hand came and decide to take the horse off him, so the lady and the butler himself didn't get hurt anymore.

Glancing at the bite mark on his arm, he shrugged it off even though it hurt. Seeing her on the ground, he wondered if she could get up, but his gold-sliver hues saw a purple like mark on her arm and guessed she'd been hit. "Here, I'll help you miss" he gently said as he smiled a little before trying to help her up. Hopefully she could stand by herself and no other parts of her was hurt, besides her arm.

She was quite terrified herself, being in this situation has never happened to before. Victoria wondered why her father didn't teacher her about horses, and how to tame them, but it was all thanks to her slow mind while thinking, but she always had a sharp mind, so she reacted quite swiftly. Probably something else was occuping her mind while this happened, but her almond locks told her so, and the matching eyes which people called 'adorable' in a sense. Coming from one of Milan's wealthiest families, she didn't know who was above the Marino family, or nevertheless; who was below it. Being raised in a confined house wasn't that thrilling, but she was let out every so often so she won't become ignorant of the outside world. When she tried to get up, her right arm weighed her down too much. This is it...

And that's when someone saved her. No, it was a butler, someone who was courageous enough to save a girl like her height, and despite how intelligent she was, the girl looked on, the man letting the horse bite into his arm as he wrestled it down, so it was tamed and it will walk away with it's head down. She was particularly curious, even with her empty, surprised expression on, her right arm was purple all over, and a horse's hooves were dangerous, especially if they were metal, and thankfully, those weren't. Once again, she was lost in her thoughts, the almond locks that adorned her head covering her eyes, moving them away so she can see the man again that saved her life.

Wow.. She thought, looking at how handsome he was, but she can tell that he already had a Lady, but it didn't matter to him. Someone saving her was a huge deal, seeing that it was something that rarely happened to her. Today was just going to become a day where she was watching the horses in the huge, white fence until one of the horses from the stables did it, and who ever owns that horse, being a lady or not, will find out what have happened today and probably pay for damages, and her health being attended to immediately. So far, the both of them were the only people there, save for the infamous old janitor who was placing the horse back into it's stable.

"Thank you." She said, taking the man's hand as she managed to stand up. His smile pratically made her heart thump like 400 times per second, but that isn'y phsyically possible, is it? "I'm Victoria Lia Marino. What's your name?" It was customary for a Lady to know the name of her savior, especially if it was a man like the one infront of her, and he seemed kind enough, so to speak.

To be honest, he was rather surprised at himself but at the same time he wasn't. Alexander never tamed a horse or anything like this in his life, but sure he was taught how to do so and such. It seemed like getting lost was a handy thing to happen toward as most of the time when he got lost, it didn't turn out quiet like this, he'd get stuck and have to ask somebody to help him, which the teenager hated. Only because had the habit of getting rather shy then feel bad about asking which was a rather silly thing but he always been like that for as long as he could remember. Also tried his best to be helpful and useful, and Alexander guessed he was like that before the accident.

Feeling useful was the second thing he hated next to asking for help. He didn't mind getting bitten or kicked by the horse, he'd be bullied when he was younger so he got use of being hurt and learned to handle the pain the best he could. His golden eye glanced at her arm and seen it was getting worse by the second unlike his arm which was just a little bit purple around the teeth marks, which Alexander would easily shrug it off. Watching the horse for a while as it got led away, he turned his attention back onto the Lady as he didn't have to look after the horse. It was calm, thankfully, and he hoped it would stay calm and something like this wouldn't happen again, but who knew what would happen.

To him, saving somebody wasn't a big deal even though he rarely did it. Somebody would have to check out what spooked the horse, as it wasn't it's fault, but maybe something in the stable of the area. The butler had doubts that the young girl did it but it could been anything though it wasn't going to be mean and blame it on the girl. She seemed to beautiful and had that innocent look in her telling him she couldn't done anything wrong. As long as he wasn't really dragged into the mess of the bills and such, he couldn't care much on what happened.

Nodding his head a little, he opened his mouth to speak. "No need to thank me" he happily replied. Her name, it was really pretty just as she was, and it seemed to suit her well. "It's a pleasure to meet you miss Victoria. I'm Alexander Marino Orlando" bowing down to her. He was taught to do that to his Lady, and it only seemed proper to do so to the Ladies he ended up meeting.

Victoria wanted to tame a horse, and wanted to ride one, but she was crowded by cats and dogs and birds galore. She couldn't ride a horse, even though they were one of the oldest races to emerge, used in the Medieval ages, during the Indian era, and then still today, in horse races and on farms, or simply just wanting to ride one around while paying. She really didn't understand commoner ways, being raised to become the Lady head of the Marino family, her mind wasn't with the commoners, because even though they have to work everyday, they still had more freedom and never had someone constantly watching their every move. That placed the young girl under pressure, and it made a hole in her mind in which she couldn't do anything about it, and can never heal it, only from the help of a person.

She still doesn't have a butler; it was sad. All alone while the other females had Butlers, she was constantly teased that she doesn't have anyone to 'bend to her every whim' as some people say, but she was still up there as one of the smartest Ladies. It seemed that the ladies had the brawn, while the butlers had the brain. What did she have? The brain; something that a lot of Ladies wanted, and the only part that some people don't want to tease about. She could think about something in one second and make you embarrassed, because it's in her nature to snap right at the moment in which she feels she's in danger, but her mind processed slowly when making decisions, and no one's right at her side to help her at all.

If the male didn't come to her aide, she would've been dead right now, or seriously injured and can't come to the academy anymore. Even though some of the Ladies here teased her with not already getting a Butler with her beauty, she still liked how big the school was, giving out what everyone needs right off the bat, but right now, no one was, only for the Butler that was standing infront of her. Different eye colors? She thought, curious on that, wanting to ask the male about that, but she knew than the meddle in the pasts and horrifiying conflicts with other people; that's not how a Lady acts. While she was standing, she was terribly shorter than the male, standing only at the height of 5'1, despite her being sixteen years old, and the male was probably 5'8 or above.

'No need to thank me. It's a pleasure to meet you miss Victoria. I'm Alexander Marino Orlando'

Alexander was a very nice name, so she thought, doing a curtsey in a show of kindness. She wanted to know; why did he save her? Was it in his instincts to help every lady in sight? It might be so, because any other jerk won't help her at all, and any man who's desperate to get a girl will help her only in hopes that Victoria will go out with them. She sighed. It wasn't something she wanted to think about right now. "Very nice name, Alexander." She said. "I wonder; what brings you to the Stables, as I was here simply to watch the horses. I have never rode a horse, so.." Why did she tell him that she didn't ride one? But what's said is said.

Never having any real animals of his own, Alexander didn't know what it was like to have a pet you'd like and it'll be like a family member. He did enjoy playing with any strays he round as a kid, to him, those did feel like very close friends to him. At the school where he learned to become a butler, he did his best to learn now to help a Lady with an animal and other such things. He was a commoner from birth and didn't care about having a high class title or anything like that. If he did, Alexander might be a spoiled rotten brat like the people he might on the streets, though not all members of the upper class where like that. He didn't have a big company or run when he was older or any family business, only real family he had was his Uncle, the rest was in China or Russia.

Sometimes he saw it pointless for people or the Ladies at this school to have butlers at this age basically. They would never really learn to support themselves and not lean on others. It wasn't his place to say it or anything, and he wasn't going to judge those he had let to know and learn about. At school was was very much smart indeed, but stuck as a butler, being smart wasn't all that much needed which was a shame, but the eighteen-year-old would easily get over a small thing. Alexander knew there was some smart and bright people in the academy but he was unsure of who those people even were.

A hero type? No, that didn't sound my Alexander though he was somehow protective and tried his best to be useful and give a hand for others. A hero wouldn't get lost so easily and become shy when asking for help or things.. He was just lost basically and saw a young lady in danger and thought it was best to go and 'save' her. Nobody was around so he couldn't leave her. If she did die, Alexander would easily take the blame, or more likely, the blame would simply be placed on him. After looking at her for a while, he glanced away before quickly moving some of his brownish hair to cover his golden eye. Feeling a tad bit weird as he was indeed much talker then her, he himself was a little bit taller when his age but it didn't matter that much.

At least she seemed to be very nice and somebody he could easily get along. Yes, he finally agreed getting lost finally did something very useful for him indeed. He was able to meet a rather nice and pretty girl, and hopefully she could maybe befriend her or even more. No, more then friends was breaking the academy's rules. Shrugging one of his shoulders, he smiled again before giving a small nod. "If you think so miss" Alexander Marino Orlando, it was really the only thing he could remember from his past, besides his birthday and age.

"I... the truth is I got lost, so coming here was just a lucky chance" the butler confessed and had a rather weak chuckle, getting lost, of how much he hated it and made him look like an idiot. "Such a lady.. every lady I know has ridden one or learned to do so. I could help you, if you wanted though.. but I' sure you have you're own butler to do so" deciding to now bite his tongue so he didn't talk anymore. He already was becoming a tad bit shy was offering and asking her such a thing. She was beautiful.. so why wouldn't she have a butler?

The only animals that Victoria was allowed nearby were cats, dogs, and birds. She loved cats, because they seemed more elegant in a way just like her, but for some reason, she took a liking to dogs a lot more than cats because of how they seem to tag along with you on trips like a lost kitten. Her mother kept several dogs in the backyard; in their own little house, so they won't go wandering around into the huge mansion that they had and knock down vases, soil the carpet, and much more. Her father was always in the backyard, playing with the dogs every so often so they won't grow a hatred for their masters and start to go haywire, kicking and screaming are meant for people that don't know what to do. Even the young Lady will play around with them every so often, so she grew atttached to dogs, and will pet every dog in sight, and help the ones that are being abused and domesticated by their heartless owners. She couldn't understand one bit; why their owners will treat them that way; place them in a wired cage, barely giving them a morsel of food, and have a chain collar tight around the fence, so as they sit there in pain, the chain digs into their skin, causing it to get infected with thousands of bacteria, and slowly, their life ebbs away.

Victoria is the same with the horses, because they are majestic creatures, and with her intelligence, she understands how much it feels when they get out of control, but what caused the horse to go out of control here? Of course it wasn't her, because she was just standing at the white fence, watching the other horses run around or just stand there and do nothing. She always wanted to ride a horse, but for some reason, her mother won't allow her, believing that they are creatures whom are just created to ride ontop of to different places, but that isn't entirely true. You can have fun with them even if you are the one standing on the ground with them. If a horse and it's owner are attatched enough, then the horse will try to follow his owner to wherever they go, and obey their orders without question. Who would, in their right mind, order their horse around like a mean lady doing to her butler. When she gets a butler, she won't order him around like a slave from the medieval ages. No, she will treat him like her very own older brother, depending on if he's younger, or older than her, which ever age, she will treat them like her older brothers, and with respect, not disdain and unlikeliness.

'Such a lady.. every lady I know has ridden one or learned to do so. I could help you, if you wanted though.. but I' sure you have you're own butler to do so..'

His earlier statement made her chuckle some along with him, but this statement was; he will help her to ride one, even if she's a smart alec, she doesn't know how to ride a horse, and most ladies and butlers will laugh and tease her for very long periods of time. Good thing she knows how to think of something quickly, because if she didn't she would be in big trouble. She didn't have a butler, which was sad, since the ones that asked her everyday gave up because she kept on telling them no, and the school haven't even found the right one. Or maybe; they are taking this long because they are trying to find the right Butler for her; one with a lot of abilities, and one that will help her where ever she went. Maybe that was the case, but here, it was different.

"Help me? Sure... But then, I don't have a butler yet.." She said, frowning at that statement.
