The Black Stallion Returns Page #4

...and why the Uruk wish to stop me.

For the same reason

they wish to stop Shetan:

Because Ben Ishak's clan...

...and my father's clan

have won many times.

-Is there a race every year?

-Every five years.

Every desert tribe lives for it.

We train and breed for five years,

for stamina and speed.

If we lose, we lose more than the race.

We lose the best from our herd.

You mean Mr. Ben Ishak

could lose the Black?

If Shetan loses the race, yes.

-The Uruk could win him?

-No, never!

The Uruk horses are rogues with no heart.

But there will be other horses.

Some, perhaps,

with greater heart than Shetan.

Raj, are we going to make it?

The well is dry.

Water!

Raj, is she going to be all right?

She's weak.

Her flesh will give us

a few more hours of life.

Raj!

Wait a minute.

Here is Sagr.

Raj, she's beautiful.

You will ride with me.

I can go no further.

I am not welcome in Ben Ishak's kingdom.

Follow this gorge to your Black.

For your journey.

If you ever again wish to cross the desert...

...I would consider it

a great privilege to accompany you.

Me, too.

Bye, Raj!

Bye, Alec!

Black!

Let go of me!

Easy, boy.

Black?

Young man...

...you are courageous

to have come this far.

I came for my horse.

I have told you before, he's not your horse.

And you may not stay here.

But I want to be your guest.

You are resourceful, young man.

You know I cannot refuse.

But...

...you will do nothing

to interfere with Shetan.

-You may rest here.

-Thank you.

Good morning, sir.

Here is Aisha.

Now, Aisha...

...is Shetan's dam.

After the last race...

...she was taken from me

by the winner, Abdel Rahman.

She was heavy with her first foal:

Shetan.

I had to trade many, many horses

to get her back.

For I knew...

...that this foal was to be

the culmination of all our efforts.

I have sacrificed...

...the wealth of my people...

...for this one horse.

I cannot fail.

If you really want the Black to win,

you should let me ride him.

Your offer is very kind...

...but he will be ridden...

...by the best rider of my tribe.

There is Shetan's rider.

So, you are surprised?

Yeah.

But I wasn't riding the Black, you know.

It is said that for every great horse,

there is but one rider.

I am Shetan's rider.

I don't think so.

Easy, Black.

You must not interfere!

No, Black!

Among Berbers...

...there is a time to welcome a guest...

...and a time to bid him good-bye.

-What do you mean?

-I have arranged an escort...

...to accompany you to Casablanca.

Tomorrow.

-Tomorrow?

-I have asked you...

...not to interfere with Shetan.

You are confusing him.

You should let me ride him for you.

You are a threat to my people.
