24 hours.

Amazing. It was absolutely amazing, the amount of power a dragon possessed. The keen sense of smell found the metallic scent of the puzzle almost instantly, and within three seconds, Yugi had caught up to the man.

Still running, he hadn't noticed Yugi until the dragon was flying almost directly next to him. With a shout, the thief tripped over his own feet. The Millennium Puzzle went flying.

Yugi caught it with an agile flip of his neck, and flew away, puzzle safely in his jaws.



Back at the game shop, Yugi set the puzzle on to the doorstep, and flew back away, unable to relinquish the joy of having flight and power.

Yami emerged from the puzzle in his own form, thoroughly confused.



Yugi wanted to do something. Merely flying had lost its joy to the dragon, and now, he wanted -action-. As if in answer to his prayers, a robber ran by, an old lady hobbling after him.

With a mental cheer, and a not-so-mental roar, Yugi swooped down. The problem was obvious: the robber had taken the lady's purse, just like stereotype insisted.

As a huge dragon dropped down before the robber, he could only gape in shock. Yugi couldn't exactly grab the purse with his claws, so he swished his tail around, to knock the purse out of the robber's hands.

Maybe it was accident, maybe not, but his tail struck the robber on his cheek, leaving a wound that would definitely scar.

Yugi flew away immediately.



A/N: Yes, the chapters will probably be very short. Sorry 'bout that.
