********************************************************
Chapter Two: Letters of Acceptance
Yugi awoke to the glaring sun at his eyes, startling him out of his comfortable sleep. He groaned and pulled the sheets over his head, thanking the gods that he was on summer vacation.
Suddenly, a loud knock made its way to him, chasing away the remainders of sleep out of his system. Yugi looked at the clock. It was 7:45 A.M. Grumbling about how early it was, Yugi got up and went to open the door after he found his balance. Yugi reached for the doorknob when the door suddenly burst open and in came Malik, striding in with a groggy Ryou behind him.
Yugi stared at the two. "What are you guys doing here so early?"
Ryou shrugged. "I don't know. Malik was the one who dragged me out of bed and marched all the way here. He made me come with him for some reason."
Yugi turned his attention to the light blonde-haired boy. "Why on earth do you come here so early? How did you even get in?"
Malik, sitting at Yugi's desk and fumbling through his deck of cards, shrugged. "Your grandpa was the one who let us in. And as for why I'm here, Izishu yelled at me because I trashed her office again, looking the Wing Dragon of Ra. And well, I made a mess in the kitchen also."
Both Yugi and Ryou sniggered. "What happened?" Ryou asked, smirking while Yugi fought to hide his laughter.
Malik scratched the back of his head. "Well, I uh, I was getting a little hungry waiting for Izishu to come home so I decided to make something to eat. As you two might have guessed," Malik shot the pair a glare, who were trying not to burst out laughing, "it didn't go well and let's just say, I used my Millennium Rod for something that was not a big of a deal."
At this, Yugi and Ryou laughed out loud at this, not bothering to contain it. Malik looked at them with annoyance. "Ha Ha, very funny guys," he muttered, turning a bright shade of scarlet.
It was a while before Yugi and Ryou controlled themselves. Yugi was the first one to speak after a couple of minutes. "Malik, you know better than to use your rod unless it was an emergency."
"Try telling that to the stove," Malik snapped, the pink hue still in his tanned cheeks.
"Yeah whatever," Ryou said, trying to turn the direction of the conversation in another direction for the sake of Malik's reputation. "So, do you guys want to go somewhere today?"
Yugi nodded. "Sure but first," he placed a hand over his stomach and it growled, "let's have some breakfast. I'm really hungry for some reason and I'm sure Malik will need some food if he decides to face up against Izishu again tonight."
Malik nodded. "I so agree." "Okay, well why don't you two go downstairs and help my grandpa make breakfast while I shower really quickly," Yugi suggested, pulling his usual leather assemble out of the closet.
Malik jumped off the desk chair. "I would love to help," he said with a sneer and race out the down to the kitchen where Mr. Motou was already making breakfast.
Yugi gulped. "I should have not said that," he mumbled, slapping his forehead with guilt. Ryou took note of this.
"Don't worry, Yugi. I'll make sure he doesn't do any damage."
"Thanks Ryou," Yugi said gratefully and made his way to the bathroom for a quick shower.
~With Mr. Motou, Malik, and Ryou~
Malik skipped happily (Oh my god, he's skipping O_O) down the stairs and into the kitchen, where Mr. Motou was at the stove, frying some bacon and eggs for the boys.
Mr. Motou turned around and spotted Malik and Ryou, who was standing behind Malik. "Well good morning boys, would you like to help me make breakfast?"
Malik nodded happily and Ryou agreed.
Mr. Motou looked over at them and smiled. "Thank you, I really appreciate it. Now, Ryou, why don't you help me set up the table? The utensils are in that drawer." He pointed over at the drawer by the refrigerator. "And Malik, could you watch the eggs for, me and make sure they don't burn?"
Malik, smiled devilishly and ran over to the stove with eagerness, making Ryou feel a little apprehensive because Malik + a hot, burning stove fueled by propane = disaster.
And disaster did come alright.
No sooner than a minute that the flames started to creep up Malik's sleeves, making him squeak with fear and dance around, trying to out it out. Mr. Motou jumped up and down, apparently panicking so much that he didn't know what to do. Ryou was trying to work his way around Malik to fetch a glass of water to put out the flames but not succeeding.
It was then Yugi walked in. "What's going on...oh great Ra, help us all," Yugi muttered as he saw Malik dancing around, waving an arm that was in flames in air, trying to put it out. Yugi sighed, ducking underneath Malik, grabbing the back of Malik's shirt and pulled him over to the sink. Yugi yanked the arm on fire under the spout of the sink and turned on the water.
Instantly, the flames were out, leaving a burnt shirt. Malik sighed in relief along with Ryou and Mr. Motou. Feeling Yugi glaring at him, Malik turned his attention to him and grinned sheepishly.
"Err, hi Yugi. Uh, sorry for the mess I caused," Malik said, scratching the back of his head.
Yugi rolled his eyes. "Whatever," he muttered and sat down at the table. Ryou and Malik did the same.
Solomon shook his head with amusement and went over to the stove and checked if the bacons and eggs were ok. 'Slightly burnt, but good enough to eat,' he reasoned, turning of the stove and walking back to the dinning table where the boys were waiting.
During the meal, Ryou heard a soft tapping near the window. He swerved his head to the direction of the noise. It seems like it was coming from the window. Ryou stood up and carefully walked over to the windowsill. Malik noticed this. "Ryou, what in Osiris's name are you doing?" Solomon and Yugi also noticed this and turned to watch what ever Ryou was doing.
Ignoring the stares he was receiving, Ryou carefully opened the window and in flew a barn owl, three letters clasped in its beak. It deposited the letters into Yugi's hands and flew over to Malik's plate of food, taking a piece of bacon and flew back over to the back of Yugi's chair, happily downing the bacon.
Yugi looked down at the letters and saw his name on one of them, the others being addressed to Ryou and Malik. Handing them over to their rightful owners, Yugi Gently prides open the envelope. On the back of the envelope, where the seal was sealed up, there was an H crest that was entwined with a lion, a snake, a raven, and a badger. Inside the envelope, two thick letter fell out and onto the tables. Yugi picked up the first one and read the following:
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. Motou,
We are please 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.
Terms begin on September 1. We await your owl by no later than July 31. Since you are a late starter, you will be required to take a few classes to help you catch up. Yours sincerely,
Minerva McGonagall Deputy Headmistress
Yugi looked up from the letter and looked over at Ryou and Malik. They had the same expression in their faces. They all looked at each other, thinking the same thing.
'Wizards? Us? But how could that be? This must be a joke.'
~With the Dark Lord~
"So, Wormtail, what is Dumbledore up to now?" a cold voice rang out, lashing at a scrawny man, who was bowing before his master.
"My L-Lord, Dumbledore h-h-has invited the t-three to come to H-Hogwarts."
A cold laugh filled the room. "Ah Dumbledore, you are a right old fool, sending the ones with powerful magic that will be soon mine to your school. Little do you know, that is the perfect place for me to strike." The man with snake-like eyes called out to the darkness. "Yami, Marik, Bakura!" Out of the shadows came three of Voldemort's most trusted henchmens.
"Yes, my lord?" they said, bowing.
"Be ready for me to call you when I need you. Until then, go have some fun with the muggles." The three bowed low.
"As you wish, my lord," they muttered, face hidden so that no one knew what they looked at, even the Dark Lord didn't know, but like he cared.
With a wave of his hand, the three departed, disappearing into the shadows of the night. Voldemort then returned to his thoughts. "Soon, the Shadow powers will be mine and Harry Potter will join his parents on the other side. Then, no one in this world can stop me!" he yelled and laughed coldly, making Wormtail shudder.
