A/N: *squeal* Yay! I finally got the time to write this! I've been dying to do this crossover for too long, and i'm very excited to present this Harry Potter/Yugioh Crossover! Like all of the crossovers you see out there, they will be students in Hogwarts, although I originally had thought that I should make them teachers. The problem is I couldn't figure out how to introduce them to the wizarding world! This way is much easier to me.... This takes place in Harry Potter's third year at Hogwarts, or in The Prisoner of Azkaban Arc. Anyway, enjoy!

Chapter one: Hogwhat?
Birds chirped outside of Yugi's window, and sunlight poured into his room. He tentatively attempted to open one eye, but quickly shut it as the sunlight stung him. He opened his eye again, this time blinking the sleep out of his eyes as the morning sun slowly pulled him from his slumber. He slowly sat up from his bed and took a glance around his messy room. Clothes draped the floor, open books scattering some spots in the room. He groggily stretched his arms over his head, feeling only slightly more awake. He let his arms flop to his sides and pulled his covers off of him, and sleepily stood up. He quick threw on some clothes and his puzzle and headed for downstairs.
"Morning..." he murmured to his Grandpa as he sat down at the breakfast table, where a bagel and some fruit had already been prepared for him.
"Morning!" his Grandpa piped back cheerfully. For some reason, his Grandpa found mornings to be quite splendid, unlike most other people who'd rather sleep in rather than make breakfast for their grandchildren. He quickly devoured the bagel.
"I'm out of here." he said as he wiped the remains of the fruit from the corners of his mouth. He walked over to the front door and slipped his feet into his shoes.
"Hey Yugi? Tell Anzu thank you for the pickles, alright?" Grandpa asked him as opened to door out of the game shop.
"Mm-hm." Yugi murmered back. He was about to step out when he felt something make a crinkling noise under his foot. He removed his foot from the ground to reveal an envelope on the doorstep. What the.... Yugi thought. He bent down and cradled the envelop in his hands. The paper was unusually think and soft, and the address was written in neat green ink.
ωнαт'ѕ тнαт уσυ ƒσυη∂? Yugi heard Yami ask him as he materialized beside him in spirit form. He took a close look at the mysterious envelope and Yugi gasped. It seemed to be in some sort or European language, yet somehow he was able to read it clearly as if it were written in Japanese. ℓσσк αт тнιѕ α∂∂яєѕѕ!

Yugi gaped at the envelope in his hands, his eyes wide with confusion. He could feel Yami staring at the envelope with wide, suspicious eyes next to him. He looked to the corner of the envelope, but found no return address, nor any type of stamp. He flipped it over to find an old fashioned wax seal sealing the back.

νєяу ƒυηηу, ρнαяασн, Yugi replied back dryly, wondering where his other half had gotten a sense of humor all of a sudden.

ι'м gσηηα тαкє тнιѕ тσ gяαη∂ρα, He told Yami as he closed the front door behind him and tracked up the old, creaky flight of stairs. He took a left down the hall to the kitchen where his Grandpa was cooking (more like burning) two waffles in the toaster oven. Grandpa turned around in surprise.
"食Yugi, I thought you said you were going to meet your friends at the arcade today! What are you doing back here?食" he asked his small grandson curiously.
"食Well, yeah I was going to, but I found this on the front steps this morning. Do you know what it is?食" He handed the envelope to him, and he held it in his hands curiously. He read the address and a look of surprise and joy came across his wrinkled face. His Grandpa sprang from his seat and, without warning, squeezed, no, more like glomped his grandson. Yugi suddenly found it hard to breathe, and could only get ragid gasps of air.
"食Haha, I knew you weren't a squib! I knew it! Oh, I'm so proud of you Yugi!食" He cheered gleefully as he kept clinging to Yugi.
"食G-grandpa....can you just t-tell me what i-it is?食" he managed to squeak between breaths. He looked up at at his now-turning-blue grandson's face and let his tight grip go. He stepped back and did an excited little hop and said
"食Open it! Open it!食" Yugi gave his guardian a strange look and carefully peeled back the wax seal. Now that he look at that seal again, he noticed there was a insignia imprinted in the wax. It appeared to be an old fashioned letter H with four different animals surrounding it, a lion, a badger, a snake, and a bird. What the....? He removed the wax from the paper and pulled out a folded up letter inside of it. He examined it to make sure there were no traps or anything, and carefully unfolded the paper. He read the paper in silence, as his grandpa peeked over his shoulder. Just like the envelope, he was able to read it without trouble even though it was written in english letters as an alternative to his normal kanji.
HOGWARTS SCHOOL
of WITCHCRAFT and WIZARDRY
Headmaster: Albus Dumbledore
(Order of Merlin, First Class, Grand Sorc., Chf. Warlock,
Supreme Mugwump, International Confed. Of Wizards)
Dear Mr. Mutou,
We are pleased to inform you that you have been accepted at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Please find enclosed a list of all necessary books and equipment.
Term begins on September 1. We await your owl by no later than July 31.
Yours sincerely,
Minerva McGonagall
Minerva McGonagall,
Deputy Headmistress
PS: We are aware that you are older than the standard age for first years, so you will be placed with your age group and have private mentoring during the weekends so you can catch up to your classmates. We apologize in advance for the inconvenience.
"食What kind of sick joke is this? If you wrote this Grandpa, i'm not gonna talk to you until I head to college.食" Yugi said numbly as he threw a scowl at the old man. Grandpa smiled and said
"食No, I didn't write this! You've really been accepted to Hogwarts!食" Yugi shot him a look.
"食I don't believe you. Prove that i've been accepted into this Wizarding School, and that it even exists!食" Grandpa gave him a surprised look, Yugi never accused him of anything. He shrugged his shoulders, drew a stick-like thing from his back pocket, and snickered softly. When did that get there...? Grandpa muttered something, then flicked the stick at the toaster oven. To Yugi's surprise, the toaster oven shot out his waffles, perfectly baked, and they fixed themselves onto the plate he had set out. The buttering knife started floating (by now Yugi's eyes were popping out of his head, as well as Yami's) and buttered the waffles, as well as cut them up all by itself. Yugi and Yami stared in awe as Grandpa's breakfest prepared itself, and Grandpa replied back
"食Is that enough proof for you?食" They turned to him and merely nodded. Grandpa continued
"I went to Hogwarts when I was a little boy up until I turned seventeen. Those were the best times of my life as a child. You know Yugi, your whole bloodline have been wizards for the past five thousand years, and they have attended Hogwarts since the time it was built, up until present time. I was so worried you were a squib, but Dumbledore finally sent out your letters! I wonder what took him so long....?食"
"食Do you mean to tell me that i'm a wizard??!!食" Yugi asked his grandpa, clearly shocked and mortified.
"食Haha, indeed I do my boy! I'll take you to London before the summer is over so you can gather your supplies for the school year.食" Yugi's mouth dropped down to his knees.
"食D-...did you say London???!! As in London England????!!!食" His Grandpa nodded eagerly. Yugi's mouth now dropped to the floor.
"食It does come as a shock at first, but you get used to the idea after a while. Well, we still have a few weeks left until Hogwarts opens for the year, so I'll take you around the wizarding world a little bit to get you used to it.食" His Grandpa calmed down a little, as well as Yugi did. Yami was listening intently, and he was surprised as well. Yugi asked Yami mentally
gяαη∂ρα ѕαι∂ συт ƒαмιℓу'ѕ вєєη ωιzαя∂ѕ ƒσя ƒινє тнσυѕαη∂ уєαяѕ. ωєяє уσυ α ωιzαя∂ σя ѕσмєтнιηg? Yami gave him a puzzled glance and replied back hesitantly
ωє ¢συℓ∂ ∂σ ¢єятαιη ƒσямѕ σƒ мαgι¢, вυт ι ωσυℓ∂η'т ¢αℓℓ συяѕєℓνєѕ ωιzαя∂ѕ, єχα¢тℓу... He shrugged mentally and turned back to Grandpa. Then Yugi thought about it; if he was going to go to this wizarding school all the way on the other side of the world, what about his friends? He wouldn't be able to see them anymore! He could never just leave his friends behind. He felt a tear form in his eye.
"食Grandpa...... I don't think i'm going to go to this wizarding school. I can't just leave all of my only friends behind! I'm sorry, I know this really means a lot to you....食" Yugi felt guilty that he would be upsetting his grandpa, but he had no choice.
"食Yugi, I never said you would have to leave your friends. You can bring that laptop of yours to Hogwarts and chat with them with that webcam I got you for christmas last year.食" Grandpa said, understanding Yugi's feelings.
"食Oh, you really mean it Grandpa? Thank you!食" He gave his Grandpa a hug.
"食Don't worry about it, Yugi. I'll take care of everything for you. We'll set off for London in a few days, ok? That will give you plenty of time to say goodbye to your friends make your arrangements.食"
"食But what am I going to tell them? That i'm leaving Domino so I can fly over to freaking England to become a wizard?!食" Grandpa that look on his face when he's trying to think of something, then he turned back to Yugi.
"食You can tell them that you've been signed up to go to a special boarding school a long way away. I think they'll believe that, it happens to kids all the time. And plus, technically you're not lying to them, since you sort of are.食" Yugi thought it over. It did seem believable.
"食All right, Grandpa. I guess I'll go meet them at the arcade like I promised them and break the news.食" he turned to leave when he his Grandpa reminded him
"食Remember, tell Anzu thank you for the pickles!食"
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
"食You're going to boarding school??!!食" Jounuchi shrieked disbelievingly at Yugi. Yugi winced away in fright and nodded silently. All of them, Anzu, Honda, and Jounuchi were staring at him, shocked and mortified.
"食You mean you're moving away from Domino? For the whole school year? Seriously!?食" Honda asked him.
"食Yeah.... but i'm going to come back over the summer! Think about it, we can still keep in touch. Don't you have a webcam, Jounuchi? We'll use that after our classes are over.食" Yugi replied back, attempting to lighten the mood.
"食But what about the time difference? You said it was all the way in Europe, right? That's gonna be an eight hour difference!食" Anzu asked anxiously.
"食I already checked that out. If you log on at 4:00 PM, it should be 8:00 AM where I'm at, and I think we need to be downstairs for breakfest by 9:00, so i'll be free. Do you think that'll work?食" They looked at each other, murmered some things to each other, and then turned back to Yugi.
"食That seems alright, Yugi. We'll always be friends, no matter how far apart we are.食" Jounuchi said back with a smile, and he gave Yugi a wink and a high five. Yugi felt his spirits raise considerably, now that he knew that his friends would be alright while he was gone. He smiled, and then Honda spoke.
"食Hey, wasn't Bakura supposed to be here by now? He said he would come, last I checked...食" Yugi looked around and realized Honda was right, Bakura was supposed to come, and he hadn't shown up yet. He felt Yami awaken in his mind, and he spoke.
ωнєяє ∂σ уσυ тнιηк вαкυяα ωєηt? нє'ѕ υѕυαℓℓу яιgнт ση тιмє...
ѕσмєтнιηg мιgнт'νє ¢σмє υρ ωιтн нιм. αƒтєя αℓℓ, нιѕ ƒαтнєя ιѕ αη αя¢нισℓσgιѕт ѕσ.... Yugi replied, not beleiving his own theory. He's probably fine, don't worry about it he told himself and he turned to one of the games beside him.
"食Hey Jounuchi, wanna have a go at this one? It looks like fun!食" Yugi challenged him, trying to change the mood. Joe turned, smirked, and said
"食You're on!食" He sat down and inserted a few ten yen pieces when he heard the bell on the arcade door jingle. He turned away before pressing start to find Bakura walking through the doors, an unusual troubled look on his face. Uh-oh, he doesn't look so good. Bakura walked over toward his friends, and gave them a smile, which Yugi could still see through.
"食Good morning, guys.食" He said quietly. Joe looked away from the game and said back with a smile
"食Mornin 'Kura. How- 食" He caught sight of Bakura's face, and his smile melted away to a frown.
"食Uh-oh, somethin's wrong here. You don't look too good, 'Kura. Tell us about it.食" Bakura looked at the whole group.
"食Um.... well, i'm not sure how to tell you guys this, but.....食" He took a deep breath.
"食I'm....leaving Domino. I'm going to be traveling the world with my father for a few years, and I don't believe that i'm going to be able to return back here until summer comes around....I'm so sorry, guys, but I have no other choice. My father needs me.食" He said with deep sorrow quivering in his voice.
"食Bakura, its alright. In fact, i'm leaving too, for boarding school, so I know how you feel about all of this.食" Yugi piped up, hoping that he could comfort his friend. After all, he was one of the only people in the world who could relate to his hard life, having being possessed by an ancient spirit. He couldn't say he had it exactly the same, since he and Yami co-existed in harmony, while Bakura and his other half did not, not by far. In fact, his other side had made numerous attempts to harm, and even kill him and his friends. But time had gone by, and both of the spirits had come to a truce after some time, so both of the Bakura's put up with each other, even if you can't exactly call them friends. The other Bakura didn't try to harm his friends anymore, though he didn't consider them his own friends either.
"食Y-you're leaving too, Yugi? For boarding school, you say?食" Bakura asked him curiously. Yugi gave him a quick nod. He got a strange look in his brown eyes that Yugi couldn't read. Then he nodded back and said quietly
"食At least i'm not the only one. Maybe i'll run into you sometime while i'm with my father.食" He gave a weak smile. Yugi returned it with a stronger smile and said
"食Well, while were both still here let's enjoy it. After all, we might as well make the most of our last days here. We'll both be away for a while.食"
"食Yeah, I suppose you're right. I'll try to keep a cheerful attitude for the next few days. In the meantime, Jounuchi's waiting for us.食" Bakura got an uneasy look in his eyes, but he disapated it.
"食Alright.食"
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The next few days flew by faster than he had expected, but he had his chance to say goodbye to his friends and managed to spend their last few days together nicely. He dreaded the thought that he wouldn't be able to see them in person again until summer, but he remembered that he had his webcam and laptop, so he should be fine. Tonight, Yugi sat in his bedroom and dug a mental image of his room in his mind to make sure he would remember it. He knew that he was going to miss Domino a lot. He would miss the days at the arcade, and the days where he would hang out with his friends, he would miss his Grandpa, he would even miss Kaiba. He sighed and did the best he could to preserve those memories, since he knew that he would need them later for comfort. He rumaged through his new trunk to make sure he had everything that he needed. Let's see, photo album, check, deck, check, toothbrush, check, ipod, check. Just them Yami awoke and glanced at his bag.

Yami could feel anxiety coming off Yugi in waves, and he did understand how he felt. After all, he felt the same when his own training to become pharaoh five thousand years ago. He knew the feeling, the pressure, and he tried to comfort Yugi. He put a hand on his other's shoulder.
уυgι, ι кησω тнαт уσυ'яє υη∂єя α ℓσт σƒ ρяєѕѕυяє. ση¢є уσυ gєт υѕє∂ тσ тнιѕ ηєω ωσяℓ∂, тнιηgѕ ωιℓℓ gєт єαѕιєя. ι ρяσмιѕє. He felt Yugi calm down a slight bit, and he replied

тнαηкѕ, уαмι. ι тнιηк ι ηєє∂є∂ тнαт. Just then, he heard a soft rapping on his door, which could only be his Grandpa. Yami dissapted beside him, and he shouted to the door
"食Come in!食" Grandpa opened the door with a cheerful look on his face, and there was a smile glinting in his eyes. He glanced at his grandson's trunk, and he said cheerfully
"食Yugi, you don't need to pack your whole room with you! Ho ho, you look like you have gotten everything packed for the most part. We have a plane to catch in two hours, and its an hour and a half drive to the airport! Finish up, and i'll be waiting downstairs.食" he skipped merrily out of the room and Yugi heard the clump, clump, clump of his Grandpa heading downstairs. Well, this is it. We're finally going to England. He took one last look at a framed picture of all of his friends, and he stuffed it in his bag before he zipped it closed. Wish me luck, guys.
