Magical Bonds

By Crimson Butterfly 07

Crimson: Hi! I'm Crimson Butterfly 07 as most of you already know and this is my first Fanfic I've ever let people read, so please go easy on me.

This is a Yu-Gi-Oh!/Harry Potter crossover. I know that this has been done many times but I want to do one too, so you can't stop me! XP Also, this is an idea I came up with out of the mist of my head so if this has already been done, then I just want to say that I'm not copying you so don't think I've stolen your ideas.

Summary: The hikaris are invited to attend Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. But when they get there, they are being targeted by three of Voldemort's most trusted henchmens. Will they be able to fend off the Voldemort's attacks or will they fall into the hands of darkness? And what if the yamis start to fall for the hikaris?

******************************************************** Chapter one: The Light

~At the Game Shop~

The sky was dark, glimmering with stars that lit the darken sky like little flittering fireflies. The wind blew gently, cool air sweeping through the city of Domino.

Turning around the corner, a pair of sweet, innocent, violet eyes stared out the window, sun-blonde bangs and tri-colored hair swaying with the wind. Yugi thought of what he did today. Malik had challenged him and Ryou to a duel, loser having to buy them lunch. Ultimately, Malik lost and so, after much arguing, Malik agreed to pay for lunch. Yugi giggled to himself as he remembered the look on Malik's face when Ryou landed the final attack on him.

Yugi sighed and thought of how they became close friends. It was after the Battle City Tournaments, where during that time, Malik had dueled against him for the power of the Pharaoh. Ryou tried to help Yugi but lost badly against Malik. Malik attempted to use Yugi's other friends, Joey, Tristen, Tea, Mai, Duke, Serenity against him but in the end, he failed ultimately. Malik then promised to never try and steal his powers again and gained the trust of Yuri, Ryou and the rest. Even Seto lighten up for once and relinquished his Egyptian god card, Obelisk the Tormenter to Ryou for safekeeping.

Laughing softly at Malik's loss, the small boy closed the window shutters tightly and walked downstairs to the living room of his home, where he found his grandfather in the kitchen, making dinner for the both of them.

Hearing footsteps making their way toward him, Solomon turned and was greeted by the sight of his grandson's childish, but sweet features.

"Well, hello there, Yugi? How's my favorite grandson doing tonight?" Solomon teased as he set the table for dinner. Yugi laughed at this comment. "Grandpa, I'm you're only grandson."

Solomon winked at the young teen. "So you say..."

Yugi laughed again, shaking his head with amusement, and sat down at the dinner table and together with his grandpa, they started to have their meal.

~At the Ishtar's Residence~

"MALIK!" a feminine voice could be heard from outside the house, annoyance and anger flowing out of that one word.

A boy winced as he heard his name being yelled out. Obviously, being the troublemaker that he was, he had done something wrong again, and now his sister was going to make him pay for it.

"MALIK, GET DOWN HERE RIGHT NOW!" the voice of Izishu (Sorry it's spelled wrong ^^;) rang out again like a whip cracking in the air, so venomous that the boy, Malik, couldn't block out his sister's voice any longer.

Timidly, the sandy blonde-haired boy got up from his bed and made his way to the living room, where his sister was waiting for him. As Malik appeared trough the doorframe, Izishu had to keep herself restrained so she wouldn't go lashing out at her younger brother. But it was difficult not to.

It was not long ago since Yugi had defeated him at the Battle City Tournament, where Malik attempted to steal Yugi's pharaoh powers, leaving a trail of destruction behind him. Even though Malik had tried to destroy Yugi, the young former pharaoh found it in his heart to forgive her brother. Malik, being entirely grateful, promised to never attempt to take Yugi's powers again. The two became great friends and even accepted Ryou into their circle. Even though Malik promised not to take over the world again, that didn't stop him from causing chaos almost everywhere he went.

Malik walked carefully to where Izishu was waiting. "Yes Izishu?" he asked in a rather small voice. Izishu glared at him, then pointed to her office. Malik glanced into the office, where he rummaged around earlier in the day for the Egyptian god card, The Winged Dragon of Ra, to use in a friendly duel against Yugi and Ryou. Apparently, he made quite a mess in there, papers everywhere, boxes disorganized, and precious Egyptian artifacts lying in all parts of the room. Malik looked back over at his sister and smiled innocently. Izishu glanced at him green eyes flashing dangerously. "You have some explaining to do," she hissed.

Malik laughed nervously. "He he, err, well, you see, the thing is..." he trailed off. Izishu exploded in front of his eyes.

"Do you have any idea how long it took me to organize my office from the last time you trashed it?! Hours, it took hours and now I have to do it all over again! And what have I told you about taking the Egyptian god card without telling me first?! You could have done some serious damage by playing that card! And another thing-" Izishu kept going, yelling at the top of her lungs. Malik sighed and seated himself on the couch. This was going to be a long night.

~At Ryou's place~

A chocolate-eyed boy sat in the lazy chair of his living room, curled up comfortably into the cushion and enjoying a novel of his favorite series. There was no noise in the house with the exception of the occasional page turning and trips to the bathroom.

Suddenly, the front door opened and in came Shadi, Ryou's caretaker. Ryou looked up to see to see the guardian of the Millennium Items walk in and greeted the elder man warmly.

Ever since the Battle City Tournaments ended, Ryou had no place to go and no one to care for him. Yugi offered him the shelter of his home and even Malik invited him to stay over. But Ryou refused them, not wanting to be a burden to his friends. That was when Shadi turned up and offered to take care of the white-haired boy himself. Ryou, at first, didn't want to take up the offer, but through the pleading from his friends, he ended up under the care of Shadi. Shadi treated Ryou much like a little brother, in which Ryou was grateful for.

"So what are you up to, Ryou?" Shadi inquired as he set down the bags of food onto the counter of the kitchen table and walked back into the living room where Ryou was sitting with a cup of warm tea.

"Oh nothing much, just reading," Ryou replied, still deep into his book. Shadi took the moment to study the young boy in his care. 'Gentle', he thought, 'so gentle and calm, like the pharaoh himself. A quiet boy who is considerate of others around him; Very shy, too.'

Ryou, felling eyes on him, looked up to see Shadi looking at him. "Is there something wrong, Shadi?"

Shadi snapped out of his thought. "No Ryou, just make sure you get some rest tonight. I don't want you staying up all night reading that book."

Ryou smiled at the wise young man. "Don't worry, I won't stay up that long."

Shadi returned the smile. "Good," he said and stood up. "Well, I'd better start making dinner."

"Do you want me to help?" Ryou offered, placing a bookmark to hold his place in the book.

"That would be nice, thank you," Shadi said and the two made their way to the kitchen to start preparing a meal.

~Unknown~

"Should we invite these students to Hogwarts?" a female voice spoke out, watching every move the three-millennium item owners made.

An old voice responded. "Yes Minerva, I think it is time to bring these three into our care, so that Voldemort may never harm them. I think, we should send them letters now."

"Yes Albus. But, there is something I would like to ask," the woman with cat-like eyes said.

Glittering aged-old blue eyes fixed their gaze upon the woman. "Yes?"

"Why now? Why didn't you send them letters earlier, when they should have been starting five years ago?"

"I have my reason, Minerva," the old man said firmly, a hint in his voice that told her no to question any further.

The stern woman nodded. "I'll go send them their letters now," and with that, the woman turned and walked out of the headmaster's office. Albus Dumbledore sighed and looked out the window, watching the stars carefully. 'I hope we can keep them from harm. They might be the only chance we have against Voldemort and his army of followers.' ******************************************************** Crimson: Well, was that good? It was longer than I expected but well, I guess things like these just happen.

Yugi: Like getting an A?

Crimson: *Looks at him weirdly* What made you say that?

Yugi: Well, earlier, you were sulking around, muttering that you'd had better get an A in Algebra or all hell shall be released.

Crimson: *Sweatdrop* When was that?

Yugi: Two days ago, when you were working on this fic.

Crimson: Err, okay anyway, I need some reviews here to decide whether to continue or not. So please Read and Review!

Yugi: Yeah or all hell will break loose.

Crimson: O_o
