Yugi looked around the room he and Bakura would be sharing for the next few days; it was quite large and was furnished with a giant bed and a mirror hanging on the wall. The bed was more than large enough for the both of them. Bakura threw his trunk onto the monstrosity of a bed and looked around.
"This is nice, and thank you for offering to share with me, I like Malik, but you know how Malik and my yami are, can't leave those two alone for a minute." Bakura smiled at Yugi, "Plus Yami should keep him in check."
"Not a problem," Yugi struggled to put his trunk on the bed beside Bakura's. He walked over to the window over looking an alley behind the inn, it was still dark outside. "Um, Bakura why is it still dark?"
Bakura joined Yugi at the window, "Ah, I don't know."
Yami decided to answer the question, //Did we not just travel half way across the world?//
/Yes, we did,/ Yugi smiled, /We're in a different time zone!/
Yugi turned to Bakura, "We're in a different time zone, and so it's a different time here!"
Bakura smiled, "Well, that was stupid of us."
//Yes it was, but thank you Captain Obvious,// that was all Yami Bakura had to share.
Bakura scowled, "Sometimes I can't stand him. Do you have any idea what time it is?"
Yugi patted his friend on the shoulder in sympathy, "I have no idea, but judging by Tom's pyjamas, I would say it is still early."
Bakura and Yugi pulled back the sheets and lay down in the bed, knowing that it would be a long day ahead of them. ....
Nami rolled over in bed, it was still early, anything before ten o'clock constituted for early, oh how she hated mornings. Nami sat up and collapsed back into bed. "I hate mornings," she said aloud to herself. She curled into a fetal position and wrapped the blankets around herself ready for at least another hour of sleep.
//Fine, if you don't want to get up, then I will,// Kaya sighed shaking her head.
The necklace around Nami's neck glowed as Kaya took control of their body. Nami wasn't a morning person at all, Kaya was just glad that she didn't mind them, or else they would never get out of bed before noon. Nami curled up in her soul room in that comfy blue bed and went back to sleep as Kaya showered.
By the time Kaya was ready to go downstairs for breakfast Nami was up and moving around her soul room.
/Ok, I'm ready to face the world,/ she told Kaya.
Kaya sent her a look of curiosity, //Is that so? Well, you'll just have to wait until after breakfast, when I'm good and ready to give you back control.// Kaya laughed to herself. //If I have to get out of bed for you then I'm going to have complete control of the entire morning.//
Nami sat in the middle of the floor in her room and pouted, arms crossed. /Come on, such trivial things like eating, why would want to bother with that?/
//Such things you take for granted, I rather enjoy eating thank you very much, and don't pout.//
The argument was over and Kaya headed downstairs for breakfast. The inn was a very interesting place, full of interesting people, however right now it was empty, seeing how it was still early.
/That's because all the sane people are still in bed,/ Nami added reading Kaya's thoughts.
Tom, the innkeeper, was behind the bar still in his pyjamas.
"Hello Nami, what can I get for you?" he asked a tired smile on his face.
It took Kaya a few seconds to realize that he was talking to her, she was Nami. "Oh, right, pancakes please."
/Yea, don't forget you're me, I don't want people to think I'm schizo,/ Nami put in. Kaya only glared.
Tom handed Kaya her magically produced pancakes and she sat down at a table by herself for a nice quiet breakfast.
Kaya was too absorbed in her pancakes and the beginning of an argument over syrup to notice that another figure had entered. The young boy walked up to Tom, scratching his head sleepily, his light blue pyjamas were perhaps a little to big for him and made him look even smaller than he already was.
"Morning Yugi," Tom greeted. "Want some breakfast?"
Yugi smiled as he brushed sleep from his eyes, "Yes, please."
Tom pulled out his wand and waved it around and said, "Alimonium ientaculum." Before appeared two bowls, which he handed to Yugi.
Yugi looked at the bowls and smiled to Tom, "Thanks, my grandpa makes great miso soup, maybe I could get you the recipe." Yugi turned around and looked at the empty room. Well almost empty there was one other person in it, a girl about his own age.
/What do you think Yami, should we sit with her?/
//Up to you, this is a new place so you should be careful, but I don't see any harm in sitting at the same table as her, just be on your toes. I am getting a vibe from her.//
/A bad vibe?/ Yugi asked with concern, they had some experience with bad vibes and Yugi did not want to repeat those.
//No, not bad, not good, just a vibe.//
Yugi laughed in his mind, /Thanks for the clarity./
Yugi walked over to where the girl was sitting, she was bent over her plate and didn't see him standing beside her.
"Anyone sitting here?" he asked.
Kaya nearly jumped out of her skin, she pushed her long dark hair out of her face. "No, sit," she motioned to the chair across from her, "do you always scare people like that?"
Yugi sat down and laughed, placing his two bowls in front of him. "No, sorry I didn't mean to scare you." Yugi pulled out a pair of chopsticks.
Kaya smiled, "Well, I wasn't really here, I was debating with myself, must have gotten a little caught up in it." It was true she and Nami had been arguing over how much syrup to put on the pancakes, Nami didn't want too much or it would make her sick, when the boy had approached them.
"I know what you mean, I do that myself quite often, by the way I'm Yugi," Yugi offered his hand.
"Nice to meet you, I'm..Nami," Kaya had to pause for a moment to stop herself from saying Kaya. "Chopsticks?" Kaya wrinkled her nose at Yugi's breakfast, "What is that?"
Yugi laughed, "Steamed rice and miso soup, breakfast in Japan, that's where I'm from."
Kaya looked at it sceptically, "I'd prefer pancakes any day. I wonder what kind of food they'll have at Hogwarts?" she mused to herself.
Yugi snapped his head up, "Hogwarts? Are you going to Hogwarts too?"
Kaya smiled and swallowed the pancake in her mouth, "Yes, I'm starting fifth year in September, I'm staying here to get my things in Diagon Alley."
A very pale boy with white hair came up beside Yugi and sat down. He rubbed his head as though he had a bit of a headache; his dark blue pyjamas complemented him nicely. His huge chocolate brown eyes studied Kaya, "Hello," he offered sounding rather tired.
"Morning Bakura," Yugi offered his tired looking friend. "This is Nami, Nami this is Bakura." Bakura and Nami shook hands. "So Nami, have you always gone to Hogwarts?" Yugi questioned.
Kaya pushed a bit of pancake around her plate, "No, this is my first year, but I'm starting fifth year, if that makes any sense. I take you are going to Hogwarts as well."
Bakura, who was eating the same breakfast as Yugi looked up at Nami, "Yes, both of us, we'll be starting fifth year, but it is our first year at a school for magic." He turned back to his breakfast.
"Well at least I wont be the only who is four years behind everyone else!" Kaya was now done her breakfast and ready to start her shopping, "Well, it sure was nice sharing breakfast with someone. Are you guys doing your shopping today?" she inquired, optimistic for company. "I've already gotten most of my stuff, so I know where everything is, I could show you," she put in hopefully, it was the truth, yesterday she spent most of her day wandering around Diagon Alley.
/Hey,/ Nami put in, /why should you care if we have company, breakfast is done, its my turn!/
//I don't know,// Kaya smiled deviously, //I'm having fun making friends, maybe I'll just be in charge of this show all day. Besides you always get control, it's my body too.//
/I think not, it was mine first, you body snatcher!/ Nami smiled, it was all in good humour. /But if it means that much to you, I'd rather bum around in here anyways./
//Good, because I'd rather be out here, you lazy excuse for a person.//
"Hello??" Yugi asked looking at Nami with a little concern, "Are you alright?"
Kaya shook her head, "Sorry, I just spaced right out. What did you say?"
Bakura smiled, "I do that all the time, lost in thought. We said that we would think about it, depends on what our friend Malik wants to do."
Kaya smiled, "Well, I'll be leaving in about half an hour, if you guys want to come I'd love some company." Kaya picked up her plate, "If not, maybe I'll see you around dinner time," she smiled, returned her dishes to Tom and headed upstairs.
Yugi smiled as he turned to Bakura, "She seemed nice, Yami told me to be careful because he was getting a vibe, what did your yami think?" Yugi looked at his pale friend, careful to keep his voice low so Tom wouldn't overhear.
"He's asleep right now, thank goodness, as soon as I woke up he started yelling," Bakura rubbed his temples, "I'm not even sure about what, maybe just for the sake of giving me a headache."
Yugi smiled, thankful for his calm and considerate yami, "What do you say, should we go wake up Malik and see if he wants to go and get our books and stuff?"
Bakura smiled, "Yea, sure, might as well get it over and done with, besides, Nami said she knew where everything is, it'll be quicker if we know where we're going."
It was settled, so the two returned their breakfast dishes and headed upstairs to Malik's room, where he lay peacefully asleep at that very moment. When they reached their destination they softly knocked on the door.
"Malik are you awake yet?" Yugi asked through the closed door. No answer. "Malik we're coming in unless you say not to right now." Silence.
Yugi slowly pushed open the door and peaked inside. Sprawled across the bed was Malik, still fully clothed, and sleeping with the millennium rod clutched to his chest. Bakura poked his head in after Yugi entered the room.
"Malik, wake up," Yugi shook Malik gently, no response. "Malik, wake up," Yugi tried again.
"Get up now you lazy pathetic person," Yami Bakura roared. Malik jolted awake. "There," the tomb raider snapped, "if you want something done quickly you must do it yourself," with that he returned to the sanctuary of his soul room.
Malik sat bolt upright, rubbing the sleep out of his eyes, "What's going on?"
Bakura smiled as he felt his yami go back to sleep, "We're going shopping in twenty minutes, are you going to come or not?"
Malik looked from Yugi to Bakura, " You two idiots woke me up for that!?!" he exclaimed.
Ryou smiled innocently, "It wasn't me, but are you coming or not?"
"Fine, if everyone else is going I don't see myself having much choice. Lets just make this quick, I was having a rather nice dream, where I had all the power of the pharaoh and was ruling the world."
