CHAPTER ONE
For over 3000 years, magic beings have been existing in the world as we know it. Nor creatures, nor humans.
Magic users that obtain human appearance, but not sorcerers either.
They go by many names. Familiars, acolytes, servants… and so on.
They exist to assist a specific human in battle. The chosen humans can summon only one familiar, the one that suits them best based on their respective personas. Those humans are very few and they are born with that gift.
But those humans, special as they may be, are still humans and the human soul can be tempted in more than one ways. Some of them become power hungry and try to steal other humans' familiars in order to strengthen themselves.
That's why the rest of them have to eliminate the tainted ones and prevent them from going after the man kind.
However, the familiars are sorted in classes, levels if you prefer. The highest of classes is comprised by four familiars. Four familiars alone.
The Thief, the Tomb Keeper, the High Priest, and the Pharaoh, the most powerful of all.
Never before a human has existed, strong enough to summon any of those familiars. At least, not until now…

A teenage boy with peculiar looking tri-colored, star shaped hair was humming to himself while storing some newly arrived packages in their proper shelves. Heaving a sigh, he tugged a few of his golden bangs behind his ear, a smile tugging at the corners of his mouth.
Two more left.
A groan passed through his lips when he realized where those two packages were to be placed. The familiar jingling sound made his head whip around to the direction of the door, sparkling amethyst eyes blinking curiously.
"Hey, Yug." a boy with dirty-blond hair said with a grin, soon accompanied by two more teens. "Morning, Yugi." a brunette girl and a boy with pointed brown hair greeted in unison as soon as they passed through the door.
A bright smile graced the tri-colored haired teen's face at the sight of his friends.
"Good morning, guys."
The three newcomers walked over to the counter where the boy was currently standing.
"Ready to go? The school's starting in a few moments." the girl inquired, making Yugi's eyebrows to furrow lightly.
"Well, almost. I still have to put these two away." he said, pointing at the packages resting on the counter's surface. The blond boy's honey colored eyes instantly brightened once realization dawned upon him.
"Are these new Duel Monsters packs?" he asked cheerfully and reached out to take a hold of them but Yugi had already beat him to it.
"Now's not the right time, Joey. Can't you wait a few more hours till noon when I'll open up the shop?" The blond, now known as Joey let out a sigh of exasperation. The brown haired boy chuckled at Joey's expression, before diverting his attention back to Yugi. "Where are they going?" he asked.
Yugi lifted his hand up, pointing with his thumb the shelves at the very top.
A smirk graced Joey's features and Tristan had to cover his mouth with his hand in order to prevent himself from laughing out loud. "Need some help with that?" the blond asked mischievously, earning a glare from the girl and a pout from Yugi.
"I'd really appreciate it if you spared me the irony." Both boys waved their hands defensively before Joey reached out to ruffle Yugi's hair playfully. "Oh, come on, Yug. You know we're kidding."
"Yeah, we're perfectly fine with your height, even if you look like a high school student instead of a senior high student." the brown haired boy added.
"Tristan!" Yugi whined and earned a wink from the said boy. The brunette shook her head helplessly. "Guys, time's running." she pointed out.
"Tea's right." Yugi said before taking a hold of his school bag from behind the counter. Once they were out, Yugi locked the front door of the Game Shop and then they took off. But living just a block away from school had its privileges since they were able to get there the moment the bell went off.
Yugi had biology in first period, which meant that he'd have to wait till second period to see his friends again. "I'll catch you later, guys." he told them and after they waved him off, he went over to his classroom.
He took his usual seat at the back of the classroom the exact moment that the professor walked in. His silver hair was wrapped into a ponytail today, hanging loosely to the side.
Most of the student population preferred to avoid biology if possible simply because they wanted to avoid the man that was tutoring it. Mr. Maximillion Pegasus. Everyone thought that the man was insane… well, which was partially true, but Yugi was finding him kind of fascinating. He liked the way his teacher saw things, his kind nature and even his boldness.
But apparently, judging by the few number of students in the class, not everyone shared the same opinion with him.
"Good morning, class. I hope you all enjoyed your weekend because another five days in hell are officially starting."
Yugi also loved the man's humor.
"Before we do anything else though, I'd like you to meet two new students." he continued, earning puzzled looks from the entire classroom. New students? In Biology?
As if on cue, two boys walked through the door. One with snow-white hair that reached all the way down his waist and white bangs framing his face, and skin just as pale. The other one had shoulder length sand colored hair and skin with a beautiful tan. The white haired boy had chocolate-brown eyes, filled with gentleness and the other boy violet eyes that were radiating determination.
"Hello, I'm Ryou Bakura and I'm from Britain." the one with the pale skin, that Yugi suspected to be an albino, introduced himself and then motion for the other boy to do the same.
"The name's Malik Ishtar and I'm from Egypt."
"Well, it's a pleasure to meet such splendid boys like yourselves. I'm sure you'll feel welcome here." the professor said while giving meaningful glances to the students before adding, "You can sit anywhere you want, there's plenty room here."
The two boys nodded and went over to the empty desks in front of Yugi, the white haired one smiling kindly at him before sitting down.
Yugi couldn't tell if it was their looks or the fact that they were both giving off an aura of confidence, but he was pretty sure that something wasn't quiet right with his new classmates. But perhaps, he was just being paranoid.
