Chapter 9:
Sai walked into the classroom to attend her Ancient Egyptian Magicks class. She was going to sit near the back, but found herself being pulled to the front by Yugi. Soon all the chosen students came into the classroom anxious for it to begin. Shadi appeared in front of the class in his customary way. The whole class, save for Yugi's group, stared in awe. Once the noise died down he began class.
"Good morning class. I am Professor Shadi," he began, "Now to begin this class I'm going to separate you into pairs. You are to do all class work together, relying on one another. If one fails so does the other."
"So basically, Professor Shadi, if we get stuck with some who is stupid then we will probably fail," a sixth year Ravenclawe said.
"No on who is here is 'stupid' as you put it Mr. Johannson," Shadi said, "Now when I call out your name, then I want you to stand by my desk."
Soon Shadi began calling out names, pairing Slytherins with Gryffindors and Hufflepuffs with Ravenclawes. Shadi glanced at his class list and realized there were only a few left to pair up now.
"Granger, Hermione and Bakura, Ryou," Shadi said.
Hermione and Ryou walked to the front of the desk to wait.
"Weasley, Ronald and Malfoy, Draco," Shadi called out, "Kaiba, Seto and Potter, Harry."
Both pairs hurried to the front awaiting their seat assignments.
Shadi glanced at the four remaining students, "Motou, Yugi and Mioshi, Nikita and the last group Khalil, Saikuma and Ishtar, Malik."
Once all the groups had been decided Shadi waved his hand and the desks separated into three rows of double desks. Each pair of students took a seat as directed by their professor. Shadi stood once again at the front of the room waiting on the teens to give their undivided attention.
"Now because we are short on time, I want each group to do a paper on Ancient Egyptian Sorcerers and what type of magic they specialized in," he said, "It will be due next class period and I want it at least two feet long."
At that the bell rang. The students filed out talking about the paper due and when to get together to work on it.
As the days passed by they became colder and colder. Dumbledore announced that the weekend of Halloween would be their first Hogsmeade visit. The students became more excited as the visit drew closer, but to the Yugi-tachi came a deeper ominous feeling. Halloween day dawned crisp and clear. The students all felt that tonight was going to be great. Dumbledore was arranging a costume ball for all the students and they were anxious to get to Hogsmeade to get their costumes. Yugi woke up, stretching as he laid on his bed.
Yugi, aren't you supposed to be getting up for something?Yami asked lazily from his aibou's soul room where he was laying on the bed there.
/Yup! Today's the first Hogsmeade visit, which means we get to buy our costumes/ Yugi said to the ex-pharaoh.
Okay, but I think you should get going before they leave youYami told the younger teen.
/Huh?! Oh no… gotta go Yami… talk to you later…/ Yugi exclaimed before throwing on his usual clothing of leather and chains.
He ran down the stairs of the dorm room and into the common room where Seto, Sai, Mokuba, and the Harry-tachi waited. They only rolled their eyes at the violet eyed duelist before leaving the common room. They saw McGonagall at the entrance with a list of who had permission to leave. She marked off everyone except for Mokuba who had to stay because he was a first year. Soon everyone was situated in a carriage and on their way to the wizard village. When the carriages stopped the students left, heading into the village proper.
"Okay guys where to now?" Harry asked.
"I guess to get our costumes and then maybe butterbeers at the Three Broomsticks," Hermione suggested.
"Sure let's go," Sai said heading deeper into Hogsmeade.
As the Egyptian teen walked on, a stray dog appeared and followed her around. Harry finally caught up with her and looked shocked at the large black dog. The dog continued to follow the group around until Harry, Ron, and Hermione hurried off to take care of something else. Sai decided to roam Hogsmeade alone until she bumped into someone else. She saw a young girl who appeared to be lost.
"Hello little girl," Sai said.
"You will find what you are searching for tonight, when the cobra strikes the tiger," she said in an ethereal voice.
"What do you mean?" Sai asked the girl, but she ran off leaving the teen confused.
"Sai! There you are," someone said coming up to her.
"Oh hey Hermione," she said in a distant voice.
"Come on, it's time to return and get ready for tonight," she said before leading her from the alley.
Soon all the students found themselves back at Hogwarts laden down by bags of sweets, joke stuff, and costumes. Yugi immediately went to his dorm to get ready with Yami's help. He locked the door, after talking with the other boys they agreed to give him one hour to dress.
/Okay Yami, the coast is clear,/ Yugi said.
Alright AibouYami said before phasing from the puzzle.
"So now what do I do?" Yugi asked as he dumped the bag onto his bed.
"Let me see here, now put on this," Yami said handing Yugi a pair of white silk pants that were on the baggy side.
Yugi put it on as well as a gold sash around his waist. Yami then attached a large gold chest plate onto his chest, while a deep purple cape hung over his shoulders and down his back. The ex-pharaoh then began searching through the pile for the make-up. He sat Yugi down on the bed and began accentuating the younger teens eyes in black. Yugi then put on arm bands, bracelets, anklets, and the puzzle to top off the ensemble. The only thing they could not get was a replica of Yami's crown. Yugi noticed the box he got in Diagon Alley begin to glow. He quickly brought it out and noticed that it was able to be opened now. Yami opened it and nearly fell down in shock. It was his crown from when he was Pharaoh Atemu.
"Yami is that what I think it is?" Yugi asked quietly.
"It is my crown from when I was first crowned Pharaoh of Egypt," he said softly, "Come here Yugi."
Yugi stepped over to the Pharaoh and waited while he placed the crown on his head. The wings of the crown sat perfectly behind Yugi's bangs, as the Eye of Horus rested on his forehead. The outfit was now complete as Yugi held his staff at attention.
"Ra, you truly are the next Pharaoh of Egypt," Yami commented.
Yugi blushed at the comment before walking over to the mirror. What shocked him the most was how much he actually looked like Yami. The younger teen blushed once again at the thought of going around shirtless. Yami just chuckled at the flashes of what his aibou thought would happen coming through their mind link. There was a knock on the door and Yami vanished back into the puzzle. Yugi unlocked it and Seto, Harry, and Ron walked in. Seto was thrown off by how Yugi looked, actually thinking that it was Yami instead.
:: Yami are you going to the ball instead of Yugi? :: Seto asked out of curiosity in Arabic.
Yugi chuckled :: Kaiba you'll just have to see. ::
Yugi put on his sandals and his cloak to hid his outfit until the time was right. Seto just watched as the shorter duelist left the room. Yugi walked down the stairs and saw Sai sitting on one of the chairs talking with Hermione. The two girls looked up and saw Yugi. Instantly Sai drug him over to the couch and sat him down. Hermione was going as a geisha girl in a complete kimono and everything. Sai on the other hand was dressed as an ancient Egyptian priestess. Her skirt was floor length and her shirt was a mid-drift. She had black make-up adorning her eyes and her tri-colored hair was in pleats adorned with gold. She carried a golden staff similar to Yugi's.
"Konnichiwa Yugi-chan," Hermione said smiling.
"Been studying with Ryou again?" Yugi asked.
"Yes, but I'm still just learning," Hermione said.
"So are you Egyptians ready to shock the world?" Harry asked as he came down the stairs.
"Sure, but aren't you missing someone?" Sai asked.
"Oh Seto said something about following the Pharaoh in," he said.
Yugi chuckled at Sai's and Hermione's confused expressions, "Don't ask, but Sai can you follow me. I want to ask you something."
"Okay," Sai said, "I'll meet you in the Great Hall Hermione."
Hermione left with Ron and Harry to make their way to the Great Hall. Sai followed Yugi up to the boys dormitory. There Seto stood in a full ancient Egyptian priest's outfit. He looked exactly like his Egyptian spirit, High Priest Seto. His wand was now in it's true form as a golden staff with the Eye of Horus adorning the top jewel. Seto raised an elegant eyebrow towards the girl, at her choice of attire. Yugi sat her down on Seto's bed and proceeded to remove his cloak to reveal his pharaoh attire.
At this there came a glow from Sai's bag and a young woman appeared and bowed to Yugi. Sai was too shocked to say anything as she stared at the woman who looked like her now bowing before Yugi. High Priest Seto appeared as well as Yami both scaring Sai even further. There was a deep chuckle from Seto Kaiba as he observed this scene in front of him. Yugi didn't know how to handle the female spirit bowing before him.
"Can someone please tell me what is going on," Sai said on the brink of a panic attack, "I mean why is there a clone of you two and me appearing out of thin air?"
At Sai's shout the female spirit looked up and saw Sai on the bed, "My Pharaoh can you explain this? I am also curious as to what has happened. Last I remember… I … I … cannot remember… why can I not remember?"
"Yugi perhaps we should explain things to all parties involved," Seto suggested, "Especially before we have a panicking hikari and yami on our hands."
"Okay…" Yugi said beginning to explain about the Sennen Items and the return of the Shadow Games.
When the teen was finished explaining everything, Sai just stared in amazement. The female spirit, who has yet to be introduced, looked about to faint. Yami came to her side and set a reassuring hand on her shoulder. Yugi did the same to Sai while waiting for all this to be absorbed.
Sai was the first to speak, "So your saying that the two of them are actually ancient Egyptian spirits trapped in the Sennen Items."
"Kind of. Yami is the spirit from the puzzle which I possess, but the High Priest is a mystery on how he came to be here. Especially since the Sennen Rod is in the possession of Malik," Yugi explained.
"Okay… then who are you?" Sai asked the female spirit next to her.
"I am Luna, the High Priestess to the Pharaoh and the keeper of the Sennen Scales," Luna said, "And if what I heard is true then you are my reincarnation just as Pharaoh Yugi is to the Pharaoh."
"Cool, but wait, what about Malik… does he have a dark half?" Sai asked.
"Sort of. His darker half was created from hate and malice, but now it is just insane instead of murderous," Seto said from his perch on Yugi's bed.
"Not to mention that baka Tomb Robber," Yami added in.
"You mean Bakura still lives. He was the one who used to terrify all of Egypt," Luna said.
"His reincarnation is Ryou Bakura, possessor of the Sennen Ring now," Seto said, "But enough of this. We need to get to the costume ball before Harry and everyone comes looking for us."
"Fine then, but how are we to enter in?" Yugi asked.
"The same way the Pharaoh would, with grace and confidence followed by his High Priests," Yami said smirking.
"But we only have two High Priests," Sai said.
"My Pharaoh you still have myself and Shadi," Ishizu said from the door.
"High Priestess Isis… my teacher is that you?" Luna asked.
"No only her reincarnation," Ishizu said, "But we must go."
"Lead the way Pharaoh," Seto said smirking at Yugi.
Yugi left the dorm room as the spirits returned to their items. He went down to the common room to find Shadi dressed as an ancient Egyptian High Priest. Sai carried her scales with her out in the open now and couldn't wait to shock the entire school. Yugi left the common room and walked towards the Great Hall and stopped in the entrance hall just as a blood red cloaked figure approached, followed by another in a sand colored cloak. Yugi just rolled his eyes as Ryou's white hair was seen under the hood.
"So let me guess, ancient Tomb Robber and his accomplish," Seto said rolling his eyes, "Is this the coming out party for our Yami's or something."
Sai giggled at the though, "Nah just a way for them to have fun."
"Ra damned straight girl," Marik growled.
"Come on let Malik and Ryou enjoy this tonight as well you two," Yugi said.
"Fine," Bakura pouted as he gave Ryou control, but you really couldn't tell by the make-up.
"Now if you are ready, I believe you have a grand entrance to make, Pharaoh Yugi," Seto said in a bored tone.
Yugi took a deep breath and approached the Great Hall doors and came face to face with Propheus. He was dressed as a vampire, complete with cloak and everything. He just scowled as he pushed past the Pharaoh and his advisors. Bakura smirked as eh and Malik followed the teen into the room determined to make trouble. Anyone who had been into ancient Egypt knew what it meant to see the blood red cloak, that the Thief King Bakura had arrived. As the two teens stalked the Slythering teen, anyone near the door suddenly stared at the sight of an ancient Pharaoh and his High Priests enter in.
Soon all conversation and music stopped as Yugi came into the room further. Even Snape was awed at the sight of how real they looked. Yugi waved his hand in a manner suggesting everyone return to what they were doing before walking over to the refreshment table. Mokuba came running up to the group and bowed to Yugi with a wink.
"Pharaoh Yugi it is a pleasure that you and your advisors have joined us tonight," Mokuba said in a professional mannerism.
Seto fought the urge to roll his eyes at his younger brother. Mokuba was dressed as the character Shippo from the anime Inuyasha that he loved to watch so often. Yugi gave the teen a nod of acceptance before Mokuba returned to his friends.
"Hey Yugi, your costume is amazing… I mean it is historically accurate and everything. You look familiar, but I cannot figure out why though," Hermione said, "I mean I am sorry, my pharaoh."
Harry chuckled at Hermione and decided to play along as well, "My Pharaoh care to join us over at the table?"
Yugi just rolled his eyes at his friends, /Yami I think I now know what you went through./
Oh no not yet, but I think you're about to thoughYami responded as his aibou was swarmed by fan girls Told you…
/Oh shut up/ was Yugi's response as the tried to fight off the fan girls.
Sai sat at the table watching over her brother as he was swarmed by gaggles of fan girls. Seto was in no better position as whatever girls were not by Yugi were surrounding him. Hermione was staring at Ryou Bakura, drooling over her kimono. If Sai didn't know better, she would of thought that they would be swimming in Hermione drool if she didn't stop. Sai walked next to the girl and brought her back to reality.
"Have a good daydream about Mr. Thief King over there?" Sai asked as Hermione's face became red.
"I… um … wasn't thinking that," she said flustered.
"Sure you weren't, but the puddle of drool on the floor would beg to differ though," Sai said.
"Okay, I was daydreaming about him. He's just gorgeous. With his soft chocolate brown eyes, beautiful snow white hair, and a dangerous aire about him. He's so caring and compassionate, but still sometimes he becomes this darker and mysterious person," Hermione said with a sigh.
"Geez, I'd say you were infatuated with him… maybe even in love with him," Sai suggested.
"Um… " Hermione said for once speechless.
"Amazing, Hermione actually speechless for once. Go over there and talk to him," Sai told her.
"I don't know. What if he doesn't like me? What if I make a fool of myself? I mean this isn't class work or anything…" Hermione said unsure of what to do.
"Just go. What's there not to like about you," Sai said pushing the girl towards Ryou and Malik.
Sai returned her attention to her brother, but felt someone standing behind her. She turned and saw Propheus watching her. Sai rolled her eyes before walking towards him.
"What do you want Malfoy?" she demanded.
"In short, you," he said encircling her waist with his arms, sufficiently trapping her against his body.
"Let me go, you Hentai," Sai said struggling to get free from his grasp.
"No I don't think so. I think I shall keep you right here," Propheus said, "You just fit perfectly in my arms."
"Actually I fit better in anyone's arms, but never yours," Sai spat out, "Now release me."
"No, but I think I shall help myself to your lips and savor your delicate taste," he said moving closer to her to steal her first kiss.
Malik just happened to look up and saw Sai struggling against Propheus' grasp. He instantly became angry that he would have the audacity to touch his woman.
'Wait did I just call her my woman,' Malik thought, 'Oh never mind.'
He quickly made it over to where Sai was currently fighting to get free. He walked next to Sai's side and glared at the Slytherin teen. Propheus just stared at the Egyptian, a smirk playing on his lips.
"I believe Sai told you to let her go," Malik said.
"So what freak. I'm planning on making her mine," Propheus said.
Malik growled before punching the boy in the jaw. Sai unceremoniously to the ground in an awkward position due to the skirt she wore. Malik helped her up from the ground before turning towards the Slytherin.
"If you come near Saikuma again you'll get more than a bruised jaw. You'll get a one way trip to the Shadow Realm," Malik growled.
"You know what freak, I think you'll have other things to worry about by the end of the night," Propheus said, "See you around Saikuma."
Propheus walked away leaving Sai to gag in disgust. She faced Malik and hugged him tight. The girl was trembling from the confrontation. Malik hugger her closer, waiting for her to calm down. Dumbledore stood from where he sat and held up his hands for silence. The Great Hall became deathly silent as the student's waited for him to speak.
"Now I am sure everyone has been enjoying the ball so far and before we begin wrapping it up, it's time for the winner or winners of the costume competition to be announced," Dumbledore said, "Now would Pharaoh Yugi and his advisors and the Tomb Robbers please step forward."
Yugi and his friends stepped to where Dumbledore pointed out. The entire Great Hall erupted in applause at the choice of winners. As the applause began dying down a single black raven flew into the room with a loud 'caw'. It carried what looked like a Howler, but it was a poison green color instead. As soon as the letter landed in Yugi's hands a greenish-black smoke began pouring out. It covered the Great Hall and a mass panic ensued. The student's hurried from the hall leaving only a handful of student's left.
A disembodied voice rang through the room, "Ancient powers, now be free. Release the souls with which have been contained within. Send their troubled and unrest souls to the after life. Here me Anubis, Osiris, Ma'at, Am'mit release them from their hosts."
The smoke began wrapping around the item holders encasing them fully. Soon the Great Hall was filled with five distinct cries of pain. The teachers ran to the student's and tried to break through the smoke, but without success. Propheus was smirking at the teachers wasting their precious magic on freeing the new student's from Lord Voldemort's ancient spell. The Slytherin teen walked out of the Great Hall already knowing what will happen. The spirits in their bodies will go onto the after life allowing the weaker halves to fall to Voldemort. Soon the cries ended and the smoke cleared revealing…
