CHAPTER 12. Classes and Worries
"Wake up!"
"Ungh...."
"Wake up!"
"Murrrmph..."
"School's starting today!"
"Wha?!" Ryou shot up in bed, only to see a certain boy with tri- coloured hair peering at him with a slightly bemused look.
"You heard me. Up you get!" and Yugi, with a suprising amount of strength for his size, managed to pull Ryou, tumbling and ruffled, out of bed.
"Yuuuuuggggiiii......." the white haired boy yawned, "Just because you're bright and happy every moment of every day, doesn't mean we all are."
"Sure sure. Just hurry up or you'll miss breakfast!" Yugi grinned and ran out the door of their dorm.
"Coming coming..." and that was how Ryou Bakura's day begun.
A few minutes later he joined his friends in the Great Hall for breakfast. The Hall was filled with a growing amount of students, most of whom were in a similar sleepy state of mind as Ryou. Apparently they had just been given their time tables for the year. Or at least that's what Ryou gathered from Ron's spluttering through a mouth full of food and his waving around a piece of paper labelled Time Table.
"What classes do we have with Malik and Kaiba?" Yugi asked, perusing his own piece of paper
"Well we have potions with Slytherin, but that isn't anything new." Harry said rather dejectedly, "But on the bright side, we have DADA, Care of Magical Creatures and History of Magic with Ravenclaw!"
"Three classes isn't too bad." Ryou decided, looking over his sheet attentively
"I forgot to ask you guys, what classes are you taking besides the compulsory ones?" Hermione asked
"I'm taking Divination, Ancient Runes and Astronomy." Yugi said, once again returning to his breakfast
"I'm doing the same as Yugi. So's Malik." Ryou said, "They all seemed good though."
"Hey guys!!" Malik appeared suddenly behind Ron, who jumped up about two feet into the air
"Don't sneak up on people like that! Jeez!" Ron said, catching his breath
"It's a necessary requirement of any good theif." Malik smirked
"I can see you as a thief somehow." Harry laughed, "It'd be funny if you really were one."
"Idiot, you aren't a good thief." Yami Bakura said, his mouth twisted in a half frown, "Any good thief would have realised that I had already stolen your wallet." Bakura smirked, leafing through the contents of the afore-mentioned wallet
"Hey!! Give that back!" Malik glared
"When did he..." Ron looked quizzically from Bakura to Malik and back again
"Could have been just then, could have been yesterday." Yugi sighed, shaking his head
"Nothing interesting." Bakura said, tossing the wallet back to Malik
"Stupid tomb robber." Yugi and Malik said together, shaking their heads. Harry, Ron and Hermione exchanged worried looks.
"It looks like we have Transfiguration with Hufflepuff first, then DADA with Ravenclaw, then you guys have Divination. What do you have Malik?" Hermione asked
"I dunno, Kaiba stole my timetable." Malik pouted
"Why would he do that?"
"Because I put an Insinuating Charm on his." the Egyptian boy smirked
"A what?" Ron asked
"An Insinuating Charm. Honestly Ron, we covered it in Charms last year. It causes an object to make comments that aren't directfully insulting but insinuates things about a person that the one who casts the spell orders it to."
'And the way he wears that trenchcoat, you'd think the guy has something to hide.'
"Oh! There it is!" Malik snickered, picking the timetable off the floor. "I wonder where he put it."
"Speaking of which, where's is Kaiba?" Yugi asked
"If you look to your left you will see our favourite cold and heartless friend being cold and heartless!" Malik said, pointing to Kaiba, who sat alone at the opposite end of the Ravenclaw table, glaring at anyone who sat near him. Needless to say, they moved away quickly. "Hey Kaiba!" Malik yelled. No reaction. "Oy Kaiba!" Nothing. "Kaaaaiiiiba?" Still nothing. "Hey Kaiba, you're ugly, stupid and you smell!" A turned head and quirked eyebrow.
"Well that was mature." Ryou muttered
"Come over here and be social!!" Malik yelled, grinning at the brown haired multi-millionaire
"I'd rather socialise with a rabid wolf, thankyou very much."
"It was worth a shot." Malik said, turning back to the others "I've made it my duty this year to get that boy an acceptable personality." he whispered
"My personality is very acceptable Ishtar. It just doesn't accept you!"
"How did he hear that?" Ron asked. Yugi, Ryou and Malik shrugged.
"It's a Kaiba thing." they all said
"You know Malik I think you'd get on well with my brothers." Ron said
"Fred and George right? I've met them already. They're on the right track but their ideas are a little tame. Though I'm perfectly willing to take them on as apprentices! Ah, Kaiba's leaving, I'd better go! I have absolutely no idea where my classes are so I've gotta follow him! Bye guys!" Malik said quickly, dashing away
"Tame? He thinks their ideas are tame? What's un-tame for him then?" Ron stared after the Egyptian boy
"I think it's safer that you don't ask. Let's just say he's put us in some...worrying situations." Yugi said, scratching his head
"Don't hold it against him though. He doesn't mean it." Ryou said
"Sometimes." Yugi raised an eyebrow
"That wasn't his fault Yugi. It all worked out in the end anyway." Ryou said reproachfully
"Yeah yeah, I know. Sorry. Shouldn't say things like that." Yugi said appologetically
"It's okay. Class is starting soon, we'd better get going!" Ryou said hurriedly, and before Harry, Ron or Hermione could ask any questions, he had already dragged Yugi away. The others traded glances before following all the way to the Transfiguration classroom.
Transfiguration passed rather uneventfully, Proffessor McGonnagal basicly outline their course for the year and finding out what Yugi and Ryou knew about the subject. They were lucky that they had studied their books before the year had started. Plus, they were nervous about the next class...their first with Proffessor Shadi.
As soon as class was over they gathered their things and hurried, Harry, Ron and Hermione leading the way to the Defence Against the Dark Arts classroom. Outside the room, Malik, Kaiba and the rest of the year four Ravenclaw's sat in anticipation. Malik had a look akin to terror planted on his face.
"I wonder what the teacher is going to be like." Hermione said
"Horrible." Malik said, his eye twitching, "Twisted, manipulative and horrible."
"Why would you think that?" Ron asked uncertainly
"Let's just say we've had a few run-ins with him in the past." Yugi sighed
"Run-ins? What sort of run-ins?" Hermione questioned
"The sort that you don't want to have." Yugi said, "But who knows what he'll be like as a teacher."
"Bets on who will crack first." Kaiba grinned, staring straight at Malik
"Leave me alone in my misery." Malik slouched against the classroom door, that happened to open just as he lent back.
"Hello Mr. Ishtar. I can see how excited you are about begining this class." Shadi smirked down at Malik, who lay sprawled on the floor. The blond haired boy gulped and got up quickly, rushing to sit in the back row of the classroom. The rest of the class forwarded in, in a confused manner.
"Hello class, my name is Proffessor Shadi and for this year I shall be your Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher." as all other teachers in the school, Shadi was wearing a cloak. It was sandy brown in colour and it seemed that he had refused to remove the turban that was still wrapped firmly around his head. "First I shall take the roll for the class, then I shall outline the rules and course for this year."
"Malik, stop biting your lip so hard. It'll start bleeding if you aren't careful." Yugi whispered to his friend. Malik simply looked pained.
"Ivenguard, Gregory." Shadi read from the list
"Here."
"Ishtar, Malik." Shadi said, his eyes narrowing and his smile widening
"Here..." Malik said quietly
"Sorry speak up."
"I'm here..."
"Can't here you."
"Shadi, I'm RIGHT here!!"
"That's Proffessor Shadi to you Mr. Ishtar. And don't raise your voice in my class. Ten points from Ravenclaw." Shadi said seriously. Malik gulped and kept quiet. "Now to continue..."
'You know Yami, I think Malik might be right about Shadi.' Ryou said mentally
'What?'
'Well it seems that we are going to have some trouble out of him yet.'
'Well what do you expect? Shadi turns up and we have a tea party?'
'You have a point.'
"So as I was saying." Shadi looked pointedly at Ryou Bakura, who closed the mind link quickly and focused his attention back onto his teacher, while still repeating to himself 'Of course, he knows he knows he knows.'
"Now onto what we shall be studying this year. I thought that as an introduction we would begin with ancient curses and how to counter them. After that I thought that we would move onto general counter curses and following that, I thought that we could focus of spirits that get trapped in certain objects and ways to tell if such a possession has taken place. " Shadi grinned, his gaze shifted around the classroom finally resting on Yugi, whose eyes widened. "Now, let's begin shall we?"
A/N: OK!!! I AM DONE!! Figures that my writers block would be cured during exam time O_o;; Oh well, review and I'll update again!! Oh yeah, just in case you wanted to know I'm updating this in ICT class at school ^_^;;
