"So what are you guys going to do over summer," Yugi asked packing the rest of his school supplies into his backpack.
"I don't know rot in a hot house and do nothing," Joey said waiting for his friends by the door.
"Same here," Tristan and Tea said as they walked to the door with Yugi.
"What are you doing the summer Yugi," Tea asked as the group walked to a pizza place.
'Well Tea, I am going to spend my summer at my cousin's horse farm. She has at least one hundred there," Yugi said and looked at his friends.
"I would love to come with you Yugi. I want to ride a horse," tea whined
"Yeah I want to try riding too," Joey and Tristan, said at the same time.
"Well I can call them right now and ask. I'm pretty sure they wouldn't mind you guys tagging along," Yugi said and pulled out his cell phone and started to dial their house number.
After about 5 minutes of talking Yugi hung up and said, "Well you guys can come and stay at my house tonight since they are coming to pick me up at the shop," Yugi said and the group cheered.
"Oh yeah, I call riding the fastest horse there," Joey said raising his hand.
"Good luck with that Joey, that would be my cousin's horse and he doesn't like strangers riding him," Yugi said with a laugh following behind the statement.
"Well maybe if I ask I can ride him," Joey said looking at Yugi.
"Maybe but I should warn you about my cousin. Her name is Amy, she was a racing jockey, and she got into a bad accident. It caused her to lose an arm and leg. She now has a metal arm and leg and she doesn't race anymore," Yugi said in a sad tone.
"What does she do in her spare time then," Tea asked.
"Well tea she trains tends to horses and ride them everyday," Yugi said taking a drink of his Mt. Dew.
"That's pretty cool," Tristan said.
"Is she a babe," Joey asked and got a whacked in the back of the head.
"Joey how should I know she is my cousin," Yugi said and they started to eat their pizza.
At Yugi's house
Everyone crowded around the T.V. and were flipping threw the channels.
"Alright everyone, I think it is time for you all to go to bed. You have a big day tomorrow with going to Yugi's cousin's house," grandpa said as he turned the T.V. off.
"Alright, night everyone," Yugi said as he headed to his room.
"Night yugi," everyone called out and headed off to bed.
The next morning
Yugi was the first to wake up and he started to pack a suit case full of cloths and his cards.
He walked down stairs to wake his sleeping friends.
"hey guys wake up. My Uncle is picking us up in a little bit," Yugi said as he rubbed his eyes.
Joey yawned and Tristan rolled over and said, "Dude watch where you aim your morning breath."
"shut up Tristan, your no better," Joey said and Tristan smacked him with his hand.
"Will you two shut up. It's to early to start fighting," Tea said and got off the couch.
Around 9am
There was a honk of a horn outside and it was Yugi's uncle waiting in a van. Everyone started to gather there things and run outside to the van.
"Good morning kids," he greeted as they all piled into the van.
"God morning Uncle Randy," Yugi chirped as h got in the front seat.
"Hey squirt, did you guys say good bye to grandpa? You know how he get's when you go somewhere without saying good bye," Randy said and grandpa came out of the shop and said good-bye to the teens as they got comfortable in the van.
"Alright see you in a few month grandpa," Yugi said and the other said as well.
"Alright see you guys later and be good," grandpa said and they all answered at the same time.
The van started to move and the group started to head to the farm.
Around noon
They van was on the highway then turned off down another road. It was a gravel and dirt road and then they turned right and down a long driveway. The group of friends looked out the window and saw a huge metal barn with white trim and they saw a bunch of horses being taken or put inside. The saw a nice big white house with a black roof on it and on the porch was a swing that could fit four people on it and a bunch of flower pots with different kinds of flowers in them.
As the car parked, a big, old golden retriever came running out to greet his master and guest home. Yugi was tackled by the dog and licked to death by him.
"Hey Sparky, Hahaha down boy down," Yugi laughed and the dog ran to greet his friends.
"Honey Yugi and his friends are here," Randy called out to his wife. A medium sized woman came running out and hugging Yugi.
"Hello yugi, oh you've gotten so big since the last time I saw you," Jane said and gave him another hug.
'nice to see you Aunt Jane. These are my friends Joey, Tristan and Tea," Yugi siad and Jane smiled at them.
"Well it is very nice to meet you all and you are more than welcome to make yourselves at home," jane said and gave them all a hug.
"Aunt jane, where Amy," yugi asked his Aunt.
"oh she is running around here somewhere. But I'm sure she will pop up sometime. But right now let's get you all settled in," Jane siad and they all walked into the house.
"Amy, your cousin and his friends are here if you want to come and greet them,' jane called out and there was pounding of a foot coming from upstairs. Then a body came tumbling down the stair case and it was Amy. Amy was a eighteen-year-old girl with brown short hair and blue eyes.
"Amy how many time do I have to say this, keep that leg on so that doesn't happen again or you will put a hole in the wall some day," Jane said putting her hand on her hips.
'sorry ma, I was in the middle of adjusting things on it when you called," Amy said and she sat down and put her leg on.
"That is so cool," Joey, said looking at her limbs.
"Yeah I know. I can take my arm off too, see,' she said and detached her arm off and showed it to Joey.
"Doesn't that hurt when you put it back on," Tea asked.
Amy shook her head and said, "Not really, you get use to the pain after a while."
Amy put her arm back on and another car pulled in the driveway.
Amy walked out and so did the other.
"Hey Amy," Mokuba chirped as he jumped out of the car.
"Hey Mokuba," Amy said as he ran and gave her a big hug.
"What are you guys doing here," Amy asked as Seto got out of the car.
"Mokuba wanted to come over and see his horse and I needed time away from work," Seto said and he walked up to her.
"Well I think you do need a vacation and stay away from a computer once in a while," Amy joked and Mokuba started to drag her to the barn.
"Yo what are you doing here money bags," Joey called out as Seto started to follow in Amy and Mokuba's direction.
"I think my brother made that clear mutt," Seto said and continued walking to the barn.
Joey was getting mad and he wanted to teach Kaiba a lesson.
"Well let's just get back in and finish getting settled in," Yugi said and everyone started to drag Joey back inside.
[With Amy]
"Wow Boots looks really good Amy," Mokuba said as they reached Boots stall door.
"Yep and he is well broke for you to ride him," Amy said and that perked Mokuba up.
"Can I ride him now, please," Mokuba begged.
'Well I don't know," Amy stalled with a big smirk on her face.
"Come on, please Amy," Mokuba begged and gave her the saddest puppy dog eyes he could do.
"Okay, I'll saddle him up for you," Amy said and started to take Boots out of his stall.
Amy put Boots in the crossties and Mokuba took out the brushing tack.
"Amy can I sit on his back so I can brush his mane,' Mokuba asked and Amy nodded. He picked Mokuba up and set him on the horse's back and he begin to brush the horses.
Seto walked in and he smiled at his younger brother.
"Seto, it's so good for you to join us, do you want to help brush Boots," Amy asked and he bent down and grabbed a brush. He walked over to the horse and started to brush Boot's neck.
'Alright I will go and get the Saddle and Bridal," Amy said and put her brush away.
She came back with the tack and Mokuba was on the ground waiting for her to saddle Boots up. Amy finally got the bridal on and Mokuba was eager to get on Boots.
Mokuba put his helmet on and Amy helped him into the saddle.
"I will lead you to the riding arena and I will let you ride around in circles," Amy said and the three of them walked out of the barn and to the small riding arena.
"Do you want me to walk around with you or do you want to ride on your own," Amy said before she let Mokuba go.
'I want to try on my own first," he said and Amy nodded her head.
"Alright, remember what I taught you," Amy said and he started to walk around in a circle.
Amy closed the gate and she leaned on it as she watched Mokuba ride.
"Thank you for taking care of Mokuba's horse, He has been waiting to come out here ever since I told him that you finished training it. Since I am now on summer vacation I can bring him here to have some fun," Seto said as he leaned on the gate with Amy.
'Well, that good, you could use a break," Amy said and gave him a smile. Then Seto's attention was brought to a horse running around in a circle like a mad man.
"Are you training that one," Seto said and they walked over to the horse.
"Yeah, she wild, I caught her just a few days ago. I haven't been able to tam her yet," Amy said and looked at Mokuba. He was laughing as he was cantering around in the arena.
"Seto he is already cantering," Amy said and jogged back to the pen.
'You're doing great Mokuba, in no time you will be able to ride professionally," Amy encouraged.
"Really, then I have to practice more," Mokuba said and they started to running around.
Randy came out, join to two, and see what they were doing.
"Seto, would you like to join us for dinner," he asked and Seto turned to him.
"Sure, that sound good," Seto, said and Randy nodded his head, and then looked at his daughter.
"Stay out of trouble," Randy said and ruffled Amy's hair.
"Dad," Amy yelped and he just chuckled.
He started to walk away and the teens turned to face Mokuba who was still riding.
"You have a nice family Amy," Seto commented.
"Thank you… would you like to stay here for summer, I'm pretty sure Mokuba would love to," Amy said and leaned back with her arms still hanging on the fence.
'Would your parents mind," Seto asked with a smirk on his face.
"I can go and ask them," Amy said and gave him a smile.
"Alright," Seto said and Amy jogged to the house.
[IN the house]
"Hey dad," Amy called out as she ran through the door.
Yugi and his friends were in the living room watching T.V. and dueling each other.
"What is it Amy," Randy asked looking at his daughter.
"I was wondering if Seto could stay here for summer to. He would like to take a break from work and his brother would love to stay here so he can ride boots," Amy said with a smile.
'I guess he could stay we have enough room for those two," Randy said and Amy nodded her head.
"Okay that's all I wanted to know, thanks dad." Amy said and took off out of the kitchen and back outside.
"Amy, do you think we could ride horses later," Yugi called out and Amy turned on a dime and looked at him.
"Yeah okay we will," Amy said and ran to Seto.
With Amy again
"My dad said you can stay here," Amy said as she reached the fence.
"Alright I will have someone drop some cloths off for my brother and me," Seto said and took out his cell phone to call Roland.
"Well In the meantime why don't we saddle up and go for a ride my cousin and his friends would like to ride some time,' Amy said and Seto looked at her as he put his cell phone away.
"Alright," Seto said and he followed Amy to the house. Mokuba was still having fun riding so they didn't really have to watch him.
"Hey guys, we're going for a ride, do you want to join us," Amy asked through the window screen.
"Sure, come on guys," Yugi said and they all got off the floor and headed out the door.
Half hour later
'Okay everyone ready," Amy said as she mounted her horse Blackjack.
"Yep we're ready," everyone said and started to ride down a trail. Mokuba and Seto stayed near Amy while the others were racing ahead.
"Yo Amy, there's a river up ahead," Joy called out to her.
'Yeah I know," Amy yelled back.
"Then get your butt up here and come swimming with us," he yelled and turned away to catch up with the others.
"You want to go swimming," Amy said with a smile.
"I don't have a swim suit with me," Seto said and Amy shook her head.
" Don't worry I'm sure we have something that can fit you, we keep spare bathing suits in the shack we have near the river since a lot of people go there to cool off," Amy said and she started to trot ahead of Seto and Mokuba.
[At the river]
Amy tied her horse up and started to take her shirt and pants off (she had her bathing suit on already). Seto and Mokuba tied their horses next to Amy's horse. Seto walked into the shack and found him and Mokuba a bathing suit. Amy was still by her horse and putting her cloths over the saddle. Seto snuck up behind her and threw her over his should and ran to the water.
"No Seto put me down," Amy squealed as Seto jumped into the water with her still on his shoulder. Everyone laughed.
As Amy and Seto came up from under the water, they started laughing.
"That is cold water, oh my god," Amy said and then splashed water at Seto.
"Well you were taking your sweet time putting your cloths on the saddle," Seto said in defense.
"Look out you two, in coming," Joey yelled out and did a cannon ball into the water along with Tristan.
Amy giggled as water splashed at her. Yugi jumped in and then tea decided to come in.
" Come on Mokuba the water is great once you get use to it," Amy encouraged.
"I'm coming in," he said and jumped in the river.
Amy swam up to Tea and whispered in her ear. The girls giggled and started swimming to Joey and Tristan. Both dived under water and came up behind them. Amy dunked Joey under water and Tea dunked Tristan under water.
" Where did they go," Amy called out to tea and two hands came out of the water and dunked Tea and Amy under the water.
After about two hours of swimming, the group decided to head back to the ranch. As the teens took the tack their horses and put the horses away. Everyone walked in and sat in the living room. Joey walked out of the living room to get a drink and he saw Randy.
"Hey Randy, I'm just wondering. How long has Amy known Kaiba? It looks like they are good friends," Joey said and leaned up against the counter with his pop.
"They have been friends for a while; they actually met on the internet. Seto must have told him about the horse ranch and he wanted to come over and ride. Seto even bought two of our horses. One for him and one for Mokuba but his horse was not train so Amy took a lot of time out there to train the horse for him. Those two have been friends ever since," Randy said and took a drink of his coffee.
There was a silence between the two.
"But I wouldn't be surprised if he asked her out on a date. Those two act as if they have been friends forever. However, when I met Seto for the first time he was a bit rude and mean to her but then after he stayed here for about a week he finally started to be nicer to everyone around here including my daughter. I am glad he isn't rejecting her because of her condition. It has been a while since I saw my daughter smile and laugh as much as she is now. I have to thank Seto for that," Randy said and walked out of the kitchen, leaving Joey speechless.
"Is all of what Randy said true? Is Kaiba really starting to change," Joey thought as he looked back into the living and he saw Kaiba teaching Amy how to duel.
He shook his head and said quietly, "I will believe it when I see it."
He walked back in the room to join the others in the duel.
Around 5pm, Roland showed up and he handed cloths to Seto.
'Will there be anything else Mr. Kaiba," Roland asked waiting for more orders.
"No that's all, thank you Roland," he said and Seto started to walk back in the house.
"Alright, call if you need anything else," Roland said and got back in the car.
