As they strided through the palace, servants waited on them hand and foot. Yami denied everyone's offer.
He did not feel that he needed help with anything. In fact, he wasn't really used to this. He hasn't experienced
this for 5000 years. Ishizu ran up to Yami.
"Sire, would you like me to ride your stallion for you today?"
"No, that's alright. We'll just take a ride through the courtyard."
"As you wish. Shall I get him ready for you then?"
"Sure. Get one ready for Yugi too."
"On my way, your Majesty."
About 15 minutes later, the two stallions were ready to be rode. Talin was Yami's grey stallion.
This Egyptian Arabian had striking features. The body looked well fed and nourished. The coat was as soft
as silk and his personality was that of Pharaoh Yami himself. Ishnala was Yugi's chesnut stallion.
This horse on the other hand was a Crabbet Arabian. Crabbet Arabians have a lean face like an Egyptian
Arabian, but their face is not as curved. Ishnala loved to be rode and had a sweet personality.
"I hope I remember how to ride a horse."
"Why do you say that?"
"I haven't rode a horse in 5000 years."
"Don't worry you'll be fine."
"Reaaly? How do you know I won't fall off?"
"I don't."
"Thanks, that really helps."
So the two friend rode off into the courtyard, never expecting they were being stalked.
The horses cantered through the soft,velvety sand. Seems Yami could ride a horse better than he
thought.
But, lurking in the shadows was a strange man who was following the two all day without
being seen. He also had a horse. Shetan, the black stallion. This elegant Polish Arabian had a
squarish face. Although this black horse was the fastest of them all. This horse could beat a
Throughbred race horse. Unknown to Yami and Yugi, this stranger was planning a surprise attack.
"Well, that was fun!"
"Yeah, I didn't think you could stay on for that long!"
"Hey!"
"Hahahahahahahaha!!!!"
"That's not funny!"
"It is to me."
Just then Shetan and the stranger bounded out of the brush. The man was wearing a black
outfit so he could not be seen. He drew his sowrd and lashed out at Yami.Yami's arm was cut and
bleeding. The sudden attack frightened Talin, causing the horse to rear. Yami fell to the ground.
Then some of the servants rushed put at Yami's painful scream. The man and Shetan
darted out from the scene and left the courtyard.
"Yami! Are you ok?"
"Yes Yugi I'm alright. Ah..."
"My Pharaoh, who has done this to you?" Ishizu asked very concerned.
"I don't know. We couldn't see who it was but he was riding...a black...stallion."
"Shetan. No horse could have fled the scene that quickly on horseback."
Yami started to slip in and out of conciousness. Until the surroundings faded to a
black oblivian. Never knowing that this, was just the beginning.
He did not feel that he needed help with anything. In fact, he wasn't really used to this. He hasn't experienced
