K: Sorry everyone for taking so long to update!
Yami K: K was doing her homework for once, instead of writing more stories. ^-^
K: Yes. Wow I can't believe I have over 20 reviews already! I'm really touched so many people like this fic.
Yami K: Disclaimer: K doesn't own Yugioh or Harry Potter.
K: Also I have an announcement. I WILL REPLY TO ALL RESPONSES IN AN AUTHOR NOTE EVERY 5 CHAPTERS. I put that in caps so everyone notices.
Yami K: You decided this because?
K: Because of a reviewers suggestion. ^_^
Darkphoenix2003: **reads chapter two and sweat drops** Point well taken. In an effort to shorten my author notes I will use your suggestion of designating a chapter every 5 or so and label it Review Responses. ^_^ I'm glad you like the story and thanks for your suggestion!
Yami K: All other reviews will be responded two in a specific review so if you have a question, comment, or suggestion, don't worry K will respond to it. ^-^
K: And now that that's settled onto Chapter 4!
Chapter 4
"Yugi!!!" Yugi heard his grandpa shouting from downstairs, he sounded very shocked. "Yugi!"
"What?" Yugi yelled back from were he was perched on his bed flipping through his deck stopping at the Dark Magician, his favorite card.
"Yugi! There's an owl outside! Come here quick!" Yugi's grandpa shouted back sounding more frazzled than shocked. The last part of his shout had been muffled as if he had turned his back from Yugi.
/Did he say owl?/ Yugi asked Yami mentally sounding a bit concerned. Sounded like it "Owls." Yugi said rolling his eyes, his grandpa must be seeing things, owls, owls don't come out during the day, and they never are seen around Domino. Yugi thought to himself as he shook his head and padded down the stairs.
Yugi entered the kitchen and gazed at the window, his jaw dropped. "What on earth.." Yugi gasped. A snowy white owl was perched on the windowsill with its head pressed against the window, his large yellow eyes looked annoyed. Silly, Yugi chided himself, owls can't look angry and there must be some realistic explanation to why the owl is in her.
The owl hooted softly and raised its foot to the window tapping impatiently on the glass waiting for the foolish inhabitants of the home to open the window. She had flown a long way and was very thirsty as well as ready for a nice nap at Hogwarts. The tri-colored boy was staring at her with wide eyes full of disbelief.
Yugi jumped when the owl tapped on the window a little harder. She obviously wanted to come in. Hesitantly the youth crept over to the window and lugged it open with a creak. The owl flew into the sunny room and perched on an old wooden chair. Ruffling her white feathers she waited to be relieved of her burden. "What do you think she wants?" Yugi asked aloud and his grandfather shook his head in confusion. Yugi's violet eyes widened and shone with excitement. "The owl is carrying something!" Yugi cried. "I wonder if it's for me?" The owl gazed at Yugi and clicked her beak in answer.
Taking a deep breath Yugi slunk over to the owl and gently pulled a yellowish colored envelope off her beak. The owl stared at him as Yugi read the Hogwarts seal. "You've come a long way, you must be thirsty or hungry." The owl hooted softly and Yugi ran over to the sink and filled a bowl with cool water. After the owl had drank her fill she stretched out her wings and flew soundlessly away into the warm day.
/How strange, they must use owls for their mail../ Yugi thought to Yami. They certainly have interesting ways don't they? Yugi mentally nodded in agreement to Yami's statement. Yugi gazed at the large envelope in his hand; it was made of the same sort of parchment as before, only this time Yugi didn't even blink at the oddly specific address.
Yugi ripped open the envelope taking out several sheets of paper. Skimming the letter he read out loud:
"Dear Mr. Yugi Motou,
We are pleased to inform you that you have been accepted to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Because of your age you will be in year 5 despite your inexperience with magic. We hope this will be a safe and fun year for all our students. Included is a list of items needed as well as information on how to get the items and information with your ticket to the Hogwarts Express.
Sincerely, Professor Minerva McGonagall"
Ok, Yugi thought, I never actually agreed to go to this wizard school. It sounds like an interesting experience though, how many people can actually say they've witnessed real magic? Supposing it's real of course.
Yugi took out the 2nd sheet. This sheet appeared to be a list of items needed to be purchased prior to arriving at Hogwarts.
"5th Year students require:
Plain black robes
One dress robe (for fancy occasions)
One pewter cauldron
One wand
The Standard Book of Spells, Grades 1-5, by Miranda Goshawk
Magical Creatures: Friend or Foe?, By Professor Willard Mammel."
Yugi broke off as he continued to browse through the list. /I have no idea where to get any of these things../ Yugi said to Yami. It said there would be information following
Yugi took out the third sheet and jerked back slightly as a ticket fluttered to the floor, Yugi bent down and picked it up, stuffing it into the envelope for safekeeping. He read the next sheet. This sheet described that he would need to go to a place called Diagon Alley in London for all his things. Inside a pub called the Leaky Cauldron, a man named Tom would show him his room where he would stay until it was time to leave for Hogwarts. Tom would also show him how to get into Diagon Alley.
Yugi stared at the sheet of parchment, below that message was a sketch of how to get to the Leaky Cauldron. Yugi slipped his ticket out and read it, reread it, and then read it a third time to make sure he was reading it right. Platform 9 ¾ ? They must have made a mistake. There is no such thing as a platform numbered 9 ¾, it must be a mistake.
All the while Yugi had been reading his letter his grandpa had been frowning at him. "You can't go," Yugi's grandpa said firmly. Yugi stared at him in shock. "Really Yugi some old crackpot tells some fantastic tale of wizards and curses and invites you to some school halfway across the globe and you want to go? Well I won't allow it."
"Grandpa...I want to go." Yugi said softly and gave his Grandpa his best puppy eyes and begged silently to go.
No! Don't look in his eyes, Yugi's grandfather said to himself. He knew the minute he looked into Yugi's violet orbs he would be done for and Yugi would be on his way to that school. Yugi's grandpa chanced a look at his grandson and met his eyes. "Fine, you may go," Yugi's grandfather sighed, giving in finally.
"Alright!" Yugi cheered and hopped up and down.
K: So Yugi's going to Hogwarts, I bet none of you saw that coming. ^_~
Yami K: **rolls eyes**
K: Be patient Yugi will get to Hogwarts eventually, and he will meet some well-known people. ^-^
Yami K: Please review and comments, suggestions, or questions are welcome. Thanks!
