A/N: OMG! FF.net is back up! SO HAPPY!!!! Thankyou so much to everyone who
reviewed! I've overcome my small bout of writers block and are now almost
finished chapter 5! But I'm still sore from camp T_T oh well. Because this
story jumps around a bit I went insane and drew up a timeline for it! ^_^ I
have the dates for everything that happens! Let's continue this, I need to
update quickly so that I can keep writing later chapters, it's all that
I've been able to think about today!
CHAPTER 3. Find a Way
"Hi guys! Sorry I'm....late." Malik asked, running into Seto Kaiba's private entertaining room. He paused as he observed Yami Yugi and Yami Bakura involved in a heated argument in the middle of the large expensive- looking room.
"All evidence points to it being perfectly safe! And not only that, but it will be beneficial too!!" the Pharaoh yelled, his left eye twitching
"We don't need to go anywhere these people tell us to go! I'm probably 100 times more powerful than them anyway! I have all the magic I need to gain the Powers of Darkness!" Yami Bakura yelled, a vein clearly showing on his forehead
"Fine then!! You stay here and when I come back and are stronger than you could have thought possible, we'll see who'll be laughing!"
"Stronger? Stronger?! I'm going with you just to prove that what you say is completely false!" Bakura sneered
"Good. Than it's agreed. You're going." Yami smirked.
"WHAT?! I never said, "
"Yes you did, just then."
"Argh! Baka Pharaoh..."
"Now we just have to convince Kaiba, assuming that you're coming Malik?"
"Definitely!" Malik grinned
"My Nii-sama isn't a problem anymore." Mokuba said, walking through a door on their left
"You talked him around Mokuba?" Ryou said, his Yami letting him regain control
"Well he's been promising me we'd go back to England for years. A good dose of puppy eyes and he saw things my way very quickly." the youngest Kaiba grinned devilishly
"I heard that!" Seto frowned, coming in behind his brother "Anyway, it might be for the best that I'm going. As that Shadi guy said, it will lead to greater things."
"Well now that that's sorted, how are we going to get there? And when we do, where are we gonna stay?" Malik asked, sprawling on top of one of the expensive designer lounge chairs.
"To get to England they provided tickets, but after that I'm at a bit of a loss." Yugi admitted slouching on the chair across from the Ishtar boy.
"We don't need the tickets. We can take my private jet; it will be a lot simpler. As for residency I bought a holiday home in suburban England a long time ago. I've never actually used it," Kaiba said, bringing a 'hmph' from his younger brother "but now it'll finally become useful."
"What's wrong Mokuba?" Yugi asked, noticing his disgruntled look
"Nii-sama promised we'd go back ages ago! I told that boy I would, I bet he's forgotten by now." Mokuba frowned in thought. "Come to think of it, I can barely remember him either."
"If he's still there you'll be able to see him when we get there!" Ryou said happily, before Yami Bakura took over.
"You people are full of sentimental crap! I don't think I'll be able to stand being with you for more than a day at the most!"
"Tomb robber..." Yami said threateningly, switching with Yugi. Bakura shot Yami a glare before Ryou appeared again.
"Uh...sorry guys." he said sweatdropping. Kaiba massaged his temples, these spilt personalities never failed to give him a headache.
"So if we're using your...er....private jet, when are we going to leave?" Yami asked
"As soon as possible!!" Mokuba yelled happily, jumping up and down
"But the letter said that school begins in a month and two weeks, what'll we do until then?" Ryou said
"Holiday time!" Malik exclaimed, grinning widely
"Yeah, that'll be great!" Yugi agreed
"Wait a minute, hold it. Why are you coming Mokuba? I need you here to run the company while I'm away!" Seto said
"I'll come back here when you leave for this school. Before then I want to holiday in England like you promised we would years ago!"
"Ano....yes of course. But I'm relying on you otherwise."
"For sure Nii-sama! I won't let you down!"
"That's good. We'll leave in about two weeks then." Kaiba said
"Yosh! Well I'd better get back to the shop and tell Grandpa the arrangements. Bye everyone!" Yugi said, heading to the door and walking out. Before returning a few seconds later. "Ano...Kaiba? Could you please show me the way out? I'll get completely lost otherwise."
"I'd better go too." Malik said, rolling off the couch
"Same here." Ryou said.
"Mokuba, could you show them out? I have business to attend to." Kaiba said strolling out of a door on the other side of the room.
"Sure Nii-sama!" Mokuba said and did as he was told
1 week later...
"See ya Yugi! I'm gonna miss you buddy!" Jounouchi said, almost crying
"Oh grow up Jou." Honda said and Anzu laughed
"He's right though, we will miss you. Come back soon ok?" she said hopefully
"Sure." Yugi grinned, "We'll be back before you know it!"
"Be careful Yugi." Grandpa Motou said, embracing his grandson
"Yeah, it won't be the same around here without you, that's for sure." Honda said, his hands dug into his pockets, looking a bit sad
"Cheer up guys! Oh, right I'd better go!" Yugi said, seeing Kaiba glaring at him from the door. "Bye everyone!" he grinned before dragging his bags into Seto Kaiba's private jet. One of Kaiba's many employees took his bag and put it in the luggage compartment. Yugi walked in and took a seat next to Ryou, opposite Kaiba and Malik. Kaiba looked very twitchy about having to sit next to the Egyptian boy. The last person in was Mokuba, who took the spare seat on the other side of his older brother. Malik was chucking the Millennium Rod up and down from his seat like a baton
"Hey Malik?" Ryou started
"What?" Malik said, losing concentration for a second and letting the Rod come to a thudding stop on Seto Kaiba's head. Seto looked stunned for a moment before his eyes blazed and he attempted to pin the blond haired boy to the wall with the Millennium Item. "Sorry! Sorry Kaiba, I didn't mean to!" Malik choked out. Ryou sighed; it was going to be one of those days.
A few hours later...
The five boys were sitting, spread out, in the back of Kaiba's stretch limo which he had organised to pick them up outside the private airport in which they landed. Needless to say, Seto Kaiba was very very rich. Somewhere along the way Mokuba had fallen asleep, and now waking up saw suburban England rushing by the car. He yawned and sat up, rubbing his eyes.
"How long till we get there?" he said sleepily
"Actually, the driver just told us that we're very close." Yugi said, turning away from the window he had been previously staring out of and smiled a slightly jet-lagged smile
"There's something I should discuss with everyone first." Seto said, still looking very professional despite the long trip.
"We're all ears Kaiba." Yugi said,
"Since we are in England and I know all of you speak English, that is the language we will be speaking while we are here. Even when it's just us try to use it as much as possible to get used to it."
"I guess that makes sense." Ryou said, yawning
"Ok Kaiba, if you say so." Yugi said,
"We're here!" Malik grinned as he almost bounced out of the car as it stopped, but couldn't make it as he was in the middle of the seats. Yugi opened the door and stretched, loosening his sore muscles that had been cramped for so long during the ride. Bakura stepped out behind him, squinting in the sunshine he was about to say something to Yugi before his Ring glowed and Yami Bakura appeared instead.
"Oy Pharaoh! Don't think I'm gonna ever let you get ahead of me! Even now I'm your superior in every way!" he yelled as Yugi became Yami and smirked
"Let me get ahead of you? You couldn't be better than me even if I tried to help you, let alone let you go! My superior? Don't be stupid." before Yami could finish this off with another comment, Yami Bakura had tackled him to the ground, attempting to strangle him with his bare hands. Malik stepped out behind them and lent on the car, laughing at their show and twirling the Millennium Rod around his fingers. Mokuba, followed shortly by Seto were the last to emerge from the car. Mokuba rolled his eyes at the two and got the house keys off his older brother, walking to the front door while trying to work out which of the many keys would be the correct one.
"Oy you two! Up! You're embarrassing to be around!" Kaiba growled, kicking the two tussling spirits, not doing any good at all "Don't forget who's paying for everything!" this caused them to pause, then get up, still shooting each other dirty looks "That's better."
"Stupid mortal..." Bakura grumbled, lifting his suitcase out of the car boot; Yami, Malik and Kaiba soon doing the same, Kaiba taking his younger brothers bag as well as his own. Soon they had taken all their belongings inside and the limo had driven away.
A few minutes later...
The Dursley's had definitely noticed the Kaiba's arrival and were currently hurrying to get ready to welcome them back to the neighbourhood. Harry was silently hoping that they wouldn't drive them away again, because he was pretty sure it was them that had caused their previous disappearance for four years. He also didn't think that they had seen the other three that had come with Seto and Mokuba or they might have been a bit more wary. Harry steeled himself, he wouldn't usually do this sort of thing but he really wanted to meet the new neighbours and see Mokuba again.
"Um...Uncle Vernon?" he asked tentatively
"Yes?! What is it boy?" his Uncle snarled,
"I was wondering if I could please come with you guys to see the Kaiba's."
"Come with us?!" his Aunt shrieked, "There's no way we'd,"
"But Mokuba will definitely ask about me!" he blurted out
"Moku...oh the younger boy. Yes, that would be troublesome...I suppose it wouldn't be too bad....as long as you don't try anything! Anything at all and you'll never return to that school of yours ever again!" his Uncle threatened, glaring at him menacingly, his moustache twitching slightly.
"Thankyou!" Harry said, rushing upstairs to put something a bit better than one of Dudley's old jumpers. A few minutes later he rushed down the stairs, jumping them two at a time. He scooted into the kitchen to see his Uncle and cousin in suits with what seemed to be an entire bottle of hair gel on their respective heads.
"Hurry up." his Aunt said, hurrying him through the door and around the front garden. They came round to the front door as a flaming toaster came flying out the window....the closed window, and landed in the garden, smouldering slightly.
"BAKURA!!!!" came a yell
"The Ra-damned thing tried to attack me!" came an irritated response. Harry and the Dursley's looked skywards to see the white haired boy stick his head out of the broken window and look down. He raised an eyebrow in an amused fashion and stuck his head back inside. "Oy Kaiba! You have guests!"
"Oh god, not now!"
"Don't worry, I'll get it Nii-sama!" came Mokuba's excited voice and soon the door opened "Hello, how can I...Harry!" he exclaimed "And your family." Uncle Vernon twitched in annoyance at being called Harry's anything but kept his views to himself.
"We've come to welcome you back to the neighbourhood!" Aunt Petunia smiled widely, though slightly unnervingly
"Thankyou very much for your hospitality. Would you, er, like to come in?" Mokuba said, nervously throwing a glance behind him
"If that's alright with you. Is your brother in?"
"Yeah, I'll go get him. Harry you want to come?" he asked the green- eyed boy. Harry looked for consent from his family, and found it although it was very unhappily given. "You can sit in the lounge room till he comes down." Mokuba took them into the sparsely decorated room and dragged Harry out. "I'm so sorry for not coming back Harry! Nii-sama has been really busy and..."
"Don't worry about it. You're here now and that means the remainder of this summer may not be so dull and boring after all."
"I'm glad you're not angry. Actually I'd better get my brother, can't leave the neighbours waiting!" he said and ran up the stairs. Harry found it interesting to note that Mokuba seemed to disassociate the Dursley's from Harry himself. He liked the idea of that. Harry heard a noise and looked up to see Mokuba pushing his older brother down the stairs, Seto looking almost pleading, almost. A pleading Kaiba is just not possible.
"Can't you deal with it? I've got enough with those three upstairs!"
"No Nii-sama, it would be impolite. Yugi and Ryou can look after things up there, besides they asked for you." Mokuba insisted. Kaiba sighed, looking stressed,
"You're right unfortunately. But I can't believe that stupid spirit set the toaster on fire a few minutes after we got here." he rubbed his head impatiently
"Nii-sama!" Mokuba said, casting Seto a meaningful look, signally Harry to him
"What? Oh. Hello. You're name is Harry Potter correct?"
"Umm...yes. Sir." Harry said uncertainly. Even though the older Kaiba was about his age he had a demeanour that demanded respect, and Harry was as nervous as hell at being confronted by someone like this.
"Very good. My name is Seto Kaiba as you may already know." Kaiba said as Mokuba snickered.
"Y-yes I do. Umm...sir." Harry stuttered at Seto's straight- forwardness
"Harry, you don't have to call him sir! And Nii-sama, stop being so formal! It's making him nervous." Mokuba laughed. Harry bit his lip in embarrassment.
"I apologise Harry." Kaiba said jerkily, as if not really used to saying sorry
"So do I." Harry responded quietly, not really sure what he was apologising for
"Now isn't that better." Mokuba laughed, "When you get to know him, my Nii-sama's just a big cuddly teddy-bear!" he hugged his brother around his middle. Harry noticed Seto twitch and open his mouth to say something but just then a laugh came from the top of the stairs.
"Hahahahaha! Big cuddly teddy bear! I'm gonna have to write that one down!" the blond haired Egyptian boy said, leaning over the banisters and laughing hysterically "Large pompous over imposing statue is more like it!" he said between laughs
"Shut it Ishtar!" Seto warned
"It's funny 'cause it's true!" Malik grinned,
"Don't push me." Kaiba growled through gritted teeth. Harry really thought that this new boy must have a death wish, teasing someone like Seto Kaiba.
"Oooooh. Someone's in a bad mood today." Malik winked and disappeared behind a door to his right.
"You come back here you...."
"Nii-sama!" Mokuba said, grabbing Seto's arm. "The neighbours?"
"Oh right. I'll deal with him later. Nice to meet you Harry." Kaiba said and walked into the lounge room with a pained look on his face.
"Do you wanna come meet the other people staying with us Harry?" Mokuba asked. Harry grinned widely
"Sure!"
