Ode of Magic
Chapter 1
Yugi was in the shop, cleaning up everything for the night since his grandfather was gone on a trip. He was a young teen with hidden powers that not even he knows about. His friends too had hidden powers that they didn't know about and soon, they will be revealed to them.
Just as he was locking up the shop for the night, he saw a grey owl hovering in front of the door and he opened it, letting the owl perch on his shoulder. "Now, what is it you need?" he questioned. The owl gave the envelope that was in its beak and he took it before the owl flew off once more.
Yugi watched as it left before locking up the shop and headed into the living area, sitting down on the couch, looking at the envelope.
Mr. Yugi Motou
Living Area
Kame Game Shop
Domino, Japan
"Hmm, there's no return address." he said to himself softly, surprised to see the letter addressed to him in his exact location, before opening the letter.
Dear Yugi Motou,
You have been cordially invited to attend Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Here, you will learn many forms of magical spells and abilities and also unlock a hidden power within you. We hope that you along with your friends will come in as students. The term will start September 1st. If you agree to this proposition, say so on the back of this letter and leave it out for the owl that has brought it to you and we shall send someone over to help you and your friend to gather your supplies for the school year.
Sincerely Yours,
Albus Dumbledore, Hogwarts Headmaster
"This sounds like a nice opportunity. I would love to go but I don't know if jii-chan would let me." Yugi said. "But maybe he'll think the same and I should go if there's a hidden power that I should learn more about." he continued and them smiled, taking a pen and writing back before heading upstairs and placing the note on his desk, leaving the window open for the owl to come back in before heading to bed.
Back at the school, Dumbledore was looking over some parchments when he heard someone coming up. "Albus Dumbledore." The woman said. "Ah, Keara. Glad you could make it." he said, looking to her. "I have came here in regards for position of the new Defense Against the Dark Arts.
"I will take it for I have a feeling that there will be some new students that will be needing my assistance." Keara said and he nodded. "But of course. I will give you full permission to help any students that you have in mind when you need to." Dumbledore said and she smiled, nodding.
"Thank you, Albus." she said before leaving once more.
It was a few weeks later when Yugi saw another letter sitting on his desk and he went to open it, seeing that whoever was coming to pick him and his friends up will be there soon and got dressed before packing what he needed for the school term, knowing that everything else will be dealt with once they meet the person.
He heard the doorbell ring and he headed downstairs with his bag in tow and opened it, seeing his friends standing there with their own luggage. "Hey, Yugi. I see you agreed to go to Hogwarts, didn't you?" Ryou said as they were let inside.
"Yeah. I think this will be fun." Yugi said. "Of course. We're going to learn magic. Real magic. Why wouldn't it be fun." Malik said with a laugh as he sat down on the couch, tossing his duffel bag down beside him. "Of course, my sister was wary of letting me go. She thinks I might blow up the classroom or something." Kaiser snickered quietly to himself.
"Well, you are a troublemaker so we wouldn't blame anyone but you or Topaz if that did happen." Kaiser said. Malik huffed proudly. "Yep! Class terrorizer Malik Ishtar at your service!" Malik said and they all laughed before they heard the doorbell ringing again and Yugi got up to answer it.
He had to look up to see the man's face before asking who he was. "I'm Rubeus Hagrid, Keeper of Keys and Grounds of Hogwarts. I have come to get you and your friends and take you to Hogwarts." he said and he nodded. "Come on, guys. We're leaving." Yugi called and they gathered their things before leaving with Hagrid.
It was a long flight but they soon came to London and Hagrid led them over to a wall and using his umbrella, tapped a few stones bricks and led them into Diagon Alley. "Wow, a whole town behind a brick wall. What's next on the 'ooh and ahh' list?" Malik questioned and Diamond hit his shoulder playfully. "Shut it, Malik." she said and he stuck his tongue out at her. "First, we're going to Gringotts and get you guys some money so we can buy your supplies." Hagrid said before they headed into the direction of the huge white building.
Then entered and Hagrid talked with the goblin that stood behind the desk before they all gathered onto a large cart that took them through a series of different vaults. "Vault 289, Ryou and Diamond." The goblin spoke, taking a key and opening the large door and they were in awe at the galleons, sickles and knuts that were in the vault.
"Take what you need." Hagrid said and they nodded as they took a bit of each before they came back and the goblin closed the vault. They went a little farther and stopped beside another vault. "Vault 392. Jou and Kaiser." he said.
They got what they needed and they left for Malik and Topaz's next. They soon came upon the last one and Yugi gulped at the vault number. "Vault 666, Yugi Motou." he said, opening it and his friends' eyes widened considerably at the gold galleons that cluttered the vault. "Yugi, you have more money that all of us combined." Jou said.
"I wonder why." Yugi murmured as he collected what he needed. "The reason is that someone has been donating to your vault, Mr. Motou. I never learned who since they never gave a name but they have been contributing to the making of your vault and the money inside for many years." The goblin said as they headed back above ground and they thanked him before leaving, Yugi thinking to himself of why the people that made him his vault gave him such a number.
"Next is Ollivanders." Hagrid told them as they walked over to the wand shop. Mr. Ollivander looked to them and smiled warmly. "Ah, welcome to Ollivanders. What may I do for you?" he asked. "Need to fit them for their wands." Hagrid answered and he nodded as he came from behind the desk.
"Ok then. Let start with you." Mr. Ollivander said, looking to Ryou after asking about which was their wand arm. He went back behind the desk, rummaging through a few boxes before taking some down and opening one. "Here, Birch, six inches, unicorn hair." Ryou took the wand and waved it a bit and a few papers fluttered from the desks along with some of the wand boxes falling to the floor.
"Hmm, no that won't do." he murmured, taking the wands and looked through another set of boxes and took another and gave him the wand. "White fir, seven inches, powdered gryphon claw." he said and Ryou took it from him, waving it again and a spark appeared on the tip.
"Good. Now you." he said, looking to Malik and he stepped up. He looked through some more boxes and took one, giving it to him and thought about it before taking it. "No, that's no good. Ah, I know the perfect one." he said, taking out another.
"Here we go. Oak, six inches, phoenix feather." he said and Malik gave the wand a wave and a gold spark appeared. He went through the rest of them before coming up to Yugi. "Ah, you are a special case. What is your name?" he asked. "Yugi Motou." he answered and Mr. Ollivander nodded.
"I have yours and it's already been paid for." he said, leaving out the room for a short moment and then came back in with an intricate black case with a gold dragon on the top. He opened it and inside was a black wand.
"Here you go. Black oak, six inches, demon dragon fang." he said and Hagrid gasped. "Demon dragon fang? That's a rare item to get since demon dragons are rarely found." he murmured. "Well the person that told me to make this wand for him presented me with a fine demon dragon tooth. No chips and fractures in it at all." Mr. Ollivander said. He nodded and pondered if the person that created Yugi's wand is also the one who gave him the money in his vault. 'Was this person already expecting Yugi to come?' he wondered before they left out.
They headed over to Florish and Blotts, the Apothecary shop and the Second Hand Robe Shop to get their things for school before making their way to the last place on their list, Eeylops Owl Emporium. "And last but not least is to get your owls so you can receive mail. You can also head to The Magical Mengarine if you wish to get a magical pet instead." he told them as they went inside, some heading over to the Magical Mengarine for a magical pet.
Yugi, Diamond, Ryou and Jou looked around at the various pets, each making a comment about some. The store owner walked over to Yugi and tapped his shoulder. "Excuse me, are you Yugi Motou?" he asked and he jumped a bit before turning to him and nodding. "Yes, I am."
"Ah then I have your pet with me. Wait right here." he said before leaving. He soon came back with a gold cage that held a small, red and black serpentine dragon. It had two mouths and two rows of spikes going down its back. "Oh wow. Is that for me?" he asked and the store owner nodded.
"Yes, a while back someone brought me the egg for this guy and said for me to give it to a boy with amethyst eyes, black hair with red tips and golden bangs and you fit the description nicely. He's already been paid for so no need to worry about that. The person also told me his name was Osiris." he said, handing him the cage. Yugi thanked him before meeting back with the rest of his friends outside who each held a cage with their pet.
Malik was able to find a golden eagle somewhere in the shop and the attitude of the eagle went well with him.
Ryou found a nice snowy white winged wolf and was already good friends with the animal as she sat beside him politely.
Jou found a red eyed black dragon somewhere in the depths of the shop, red eyes looking around curiously.
Topaz found a raven that suited him well and Diamond was able to find a rare white phoenix.
Kaiser pouted as he was stuck with a great horned owl that seemed to not want him to go without him, always hooting whenever he left to look at more owls.
After everything was done, Hagrid led them over to the station that will take them to Hogwarts. "Alright then, here's where I leave you. Your platform is nine and three quarters. Just go right through there and you'll be there." Hagrid said before leaving.
"Well, this is it. We're on our way." Malik said, looking to them.
"Now the problem is getting to the train. All I see is a wall. No door. No swirling vortex. No nothing." Jou said. "Wait, it looks like that kid is going through." Yugi said, pointing to a kid with jet black hair and glasses over bright green eyes positioning himself at the wall and with a quick charge, went right through the barrier.
"Ok, that's odd but I'm not saying much since we are about to go to a school to learn about magic." Topaz said and they did the same before coming up to the crimson and black train with Hogwarts emblazoned on the front. They were unaware they were being watched from afar when they came in.
Bakura whistled lightly to himself as he watched them enter. "Well, well. Look what we have here." he murmured and Crimson looked to him. "What is it this time? Fresh meat to toy with?" he asked, looking in the same direction and gave a sound of approval when he saw Diamond. "Yeah, fresh meat indeed. Fresh meat that we'll be taking for ourselves." Bakura said, watching Ryou before looking around. "Alright, where's Marik, Seto, Ruby and Toben?" he questioned.
"Marik told me they were supposed to be here already. Probably already on the train with Malfoy." Crimson said before taking his things and got on the train, his black phoenix perched on his shoulder.
"What about Yami and Aqua?" Bakura asked as he took his things and got on the train as well. "Said they were already at Hogwarts, had some demon stuff to deal with in the Forbidden Forest before coming to the school to find the boy they were waiting for." Crimson explained. Bakura only nodded and whistled, calling his black winged wolf to his side. "Come on, Killer. Time to get going." he said as he and Crimson headed to the car where the others may most likely be.
Harry found his friends and went over to them. "Hey. Glad to see you all again." he said and they nodded before Ron saw Yugi and his friends. "Great, doppelgangers." he muttered and Hermione shushed him. "Be quiet, Ron. They're probably new so don't go mentioning to them about Malfoy and his friends. The last thing we need is to see them being messed with by them." she said before walking over to them, Harry and Ron following behind her. Yugi looked up and smiled. "Oh, hello." he said.
"Hello. My name is Hermione Granger and these are my friends, Harry Potter and Ron Weasley." she said, holding out a hand. Yugi took hers and greeting himself and his friends before they all got on the train and found a car to sit in, splitting into two groups and both Yugi and Diamond sat with Hermione, Harry and Ron. "So, have you guys been to Hogwarts before?" Diamond asked and they nodded.
"Yes, it's a great school." Hermione said.
"Yeah, at least it would be without Malfoy and his friends." Ron said and winced as Hermione elbowed him.
"Malfoy? Whose that?" Yugi asked. Ron looked down to him as he was rubbing his side. "Draco Malfoy. He's the son of Lucius Malfoy and kind of a brat. He hates Harry because is the boy who survived the wrath of You-Know-Who." Ron explained. "And who is that?" Diamond questioned this time.
"We can never speak his name. Well, except for Hermione since she doesn't care. Only know of him as a menace to the wizarding world. But anyways, Malfoy is a person you don't want to mess with. You don't want to mess with his friends either." he said.
"Yeah, and he has so many, it's hard to avoid them or him."
"And what are their names? Just so we know who to watch out for."
Ron placed a hand to his chin in thought as he tried to remember their names. "There's Marik Agarwaen, Toben Espionage and Bakura Rathor." he started.
"Seto Kaiba, Crimson Jewelgate and Ruby Jewelstone." Harry continued.
"And he also has two mysterious friends that we never see much but he claims to be friends with them." Ron spoke, looking back to them. "Do you know their names?" The three friend shook their heads. "We heard them talk about it a few times and believe we heard Yami and Aqua but we're not for sure about it." Hermione said. "But either way, watch out for them cause they're major trouble." Ron added.
"We will but we best not say anything to Malik and Topaz. They're seekers for trouble and will probably try to meet them themselves." Yugi said with a small laugh and they laughed as well.
After the short moment of laughter, Hermione and Diamond started to talk with one another about Hogwarts and the classes while Yugi looked out the window to the scenery. 'Well, we're on our way. Hopefully this year won't be too much of a problem.' he thought.
In the Forbidden Forest, two figures wearing all black along with a cloak and hoods covering their faces looked out to the school. "Come on, he will soon be here. Better get ready for our school year." One said, snapping his fingers and a gold dragon with silk-like, downy feathers perched on his arm.
"Ra, we'll be heading to school now so keep order here and send us a report whenever you get the chance." he said and the dragon nodded before flying off. Once he was gone, they started to make their way to the awaiting carriages that will take the students to Hogwarts.
'It's about time Dumbledore sent those letters off and we're glad we'll finally be able to meet Yugi Motou.' The figure thought, red eyes gleaming slightly in the shadows of the hood.
Zypher: And that's all for this chapter. Hope you like and will be waiting for more. As always, the plot seems to be the same but I'm making a twist compared to many others. Don't have no idea what else I'm planning but it'll come soon so be prepared for more. See you soon.
