all the pretty horses

Yes, I did realize after a few moments that this is the title of a movie xD But! I do like the title and it somewhat fits the story. Basically, this is just the prolouge telling you of what it is going to be about. There really is no love in this, only about a personal/internal struggle, centered around Seto Kaiba.

Summary After his younger brother is severely injured in a horse accident, Seto Kaiba must face his childhood nightmares and take fear by the reins.

So, here we have innocent little Mokuba, right? Right. After begging his brother to allow him to ride for the first time, he suffers from an accident because, unknowingly, the horse is no all tamed. Seto himself is discouraged, needless to say with his brother in the hospital in a coma. Gone near insanity without him, he travels to the stables one night.

At a younger age though, he had dreams about a priest seth getting into a terrible accident of his own.

This story was created because, well, I want Seto to ride horses x3 Because I love both topics so dearly DD

I do not own Yugioh.

"No, Mokuba."

"Please, niisama!"

"You heard me, little brother. I said no."

"But why!"

"Because they're filthy animals."

"No they're not! I promise I'll be safe! Just one ride!"

A laptop clicked shut, the light dieing as a hand was brought down upon it harshly. Pleading eyes stared up to the man sitting in a rather large chair. Sighing heavily, azure eyes closed, the crackling of a fireplace shimmered against soft pale skin. Tiredly, he gazed back at the younger one, one elegant brow lifting. "I don't understand why you're even infatuated with them, now."

The raven haired boy grinned, small hands clinging upon his older brother's knees, sitting on the floor. With an excited squeak, it was obvious this seemed to be a favorite topic to explain as his eyes shimmered. "Because they're so beautiful!" Arms opened in exasperation, that grin still plastered on his tanned face. "A-and they're powerful! You like powerful things, don't you Seto!"

Auburn bangs rustled, refusing to be tamed, leaning inwards of forhead. Unwillingly, he smiled softly down at the child who knew him all too well. "That is still not a good enough reason. Their dangerous, Mokuba and you could be hurt."

"I promise I'll be extra careful, just for you big brother."

"I'm honored."

"You should be."

Chuckling gently, free hand ruffled the boy's long locks. "You're too much sometimes, kiddo."

"So... I can have a horse?"

"I never said that."

Frowning for a moment, Mokuba's eyes trailed to the carpet, then lit up once more. Christmas was approaching, after all, and what did it matter? He had already pestered, knowingly, Seto enough into having it stuck into the poor man's mind of what he truly wished for. A horse, all his own. He had been in love with them ever since his feild trip to the farm with his class. There he looked on at a grazing bay mare, lazily eating grass in a wide feild. It was love at first sight. For him at least.

"Alright, niisama.. whatever you say.." A smirk of mischeif painted his features, rising to his height and leaning over his brother's lap, arms encircling around the other's neck tightly. "Night, big brother." Pulling away, he then scurried away to the long staircase of the Kaiba Mansion. Shaking his head, the CEO's smile failed him as he looked down at the tablet his brother had left behind. Fingers laced beneath it, pulling it up towards the light. A look of concern plated eyes, brows narrowing.

The Horse Whisperer.

Tossing it to the further coffee table, Seto Kaiba stood, stretching his muscles, picking up his mug of tea and walking off into the kitchen, laptop under his arm. Pouring the remaining liquid down the sink, he stood there, leaning agianst the marble tile, sleepy eyes drooping a tad bit. With a quiet yawn, he looked out the window into the night sky above. Dotted dimonds everywhere, the full moon blazed over, misty clouds spreading over it, giving it an eerie glow. The ground was covered in light frost, though not fully snowed over. Yet, anyways. "If you only knew baby brother..."

Turning away, he started to make his way up the staircase to his own room for a well deserved night of rest.

Chapter one is up ;D Sorry if you don't like it, I tried and Chapter two will be up soon. Please know that there is no incest or anything in this fic Oo I don't do those. I was thinking mabe a little SetoxJou action though.. Just a tad bit because, like I stated before, this isn't about romance but a personal struggle.

And to make things interesting, I plan on putting Priest Seth (Seto) in here as well x3 I'll figure it out soon.

niisama is japanese for "big brother"
