Chapter 6: It's not all fun and games
A few more days had passed since Ryou, Marik and Yugi had arrived at Hogwarts, they were very happy in their new home, the only down side was all the homework they got.
Ryou stared in frustration at his Potions homework, next to his chair were a lot of crumpled paper, which Ryou kicked into the fire, they crackled as the fire washed over them, Yugi was deep in thought, not noticing anything that was happening around him, Harry and Ron were flicking through a couple of books, then writing something on the paper in front of them, not far from them Hermione was reading a large book, glancing at Harry and Ron to make sure they hadn't tried to escape from their homework, she was also staring daggers at Marik (who was leaning against a wall looking bored.)
Marik glanced around at everyone, he noticed Hermione glaring at him sometimes, as if doing nothing was the worst crime ever. The Egyptian boy then spotted Yugi; smiling mischievously he took out his wand and walked over.
"Wingardium Leviosa," he whispered, to his amazement Yugi's quill floated into the air, and he thought he terrible at wand work.
Yugi had not noticed the disappearance of his quill, so he kept mimicking the movement of writing, Yugi still didn't notice until he went to dip his 'quill' into the ink, and found his fingers covered in the black substances, he blinked, then suddenly jumped when Ryou gave a cry of frustration, the ink pot fell over and spilt all over him.
"RYOU !"
Ryou looked up to see Yugi dripping in ink,
"Sorry," he murmured, Marik began laughing, Hermione sighed, then got up to retrieve Yugi's quill from the air and give it to him, scowling at the hysterical Marik,
"You shouldn't laugh at your friends misfortune," she scolded, making Marik laugh even more, Harry and Ron looked slightly amused, though they didn't dare laugh,
"It's ok Hermione, he laughs at everything," Yugi muttered,
But Hermione continued to scowl at Marik, even after Yugi had gotten the ink off his clothes and Marik had stopped laughing, and was bored once again.
"You have homework Marik, so why don't you do some instead of causing trouble," Hermione tried,
"Can't be bothered," Marik replied lazily as one of Yugi's book, (which now looked a bit like a mouse) ran past, Yugi glared at him, eyes flashing,
"Well stop causing trouble," Yugi almost shouted,
Marik shrugged, then headed towards the stairs, by now he had decided it might be best to do some homework, but he made a mental note not to tell anyone.
When he had gone Yugi sighed and went back to his homework, then jumped again when he heard a loud bang, Harry and Ron glanced up to see Ryou hitting his head on the table, Hermione looked at him sympathetically, before getting up and walking over, Ryou looked grateful as she started explaining the potion, making Ryou's work much easier.
--------------------
Later that day Yami and Yami Bakura were duelling, they said they were giving Ron and Harry a demonstration, although it was clear they had completely forgot the other two Gryffindors, Marik was giving a commentary, that was annoying Bakura, by now Bakura had Dark Sanctuary and Ouija Board on the field, the letters 'D' 'E' and 'A' had already appeared. Yami had the monsters Dark Magician and Silver Fang on his side of the field.
Yami chewed his lip thoughtfully, slightly worried, the darkness of the shadow realm pulled at his soul, Ron was watching in amazement as the two duelled, Harry looked slightly suspicious of the monsters that had appeared, he had already discovered that Ron couldn't see them, only the pictures on the cards, Yami sighed almost sadly, then placed two cards face down.
"End turn," he declared, Bakura drew, then started to laugh evilly, Harry shivered at the laugh,
"And it seems Bakura has a plan," Marik commented,
"Shut up," Bakura snarled, "I had a plan from the beginning," he then turned to Yami, chuckling madly,
(Please don't do that Yami, your making me seem like a lunatic) Ryou sighed from his soul room, he knew it had been a bad idea to let Bakura duel,
((You can shut up too,)) Bakura growled ((do NOT interrupt my moment of insanity)) Bakura then turned back to Yami, who was looking slightly bored,
"First I'll play Change Of Heart, remember this ?" Yami's eyes widened slightly, "and I'll use it to take control of your Dark Magician, and now, I will sacrifice him to the darkness," Dark Magician disappeared, "now, I will sacrifice three monsters from my graveyard to bring forth a beast of ultimate chaos, that's right Yami, rise Dark Necrophia."
A monster swooped over Harry's head, Ron looked confused as Harry ducked, the creature materialised on the field, in her arms was a chattering baby, it's plastic eyes rolled around, staring at Harry who shivered.
Bakura laughed at the fear in Yami's face, "now Dark Necrophia, attack Silver Fang !" Dark Necrophia flew towards the wolf, then attacked, the wolf howled in pain as it's fur was cut away, Harry gasped, how was it possible for the card to be in pain … but how was it possible he could see the monster to start with … there was something wrong here.
"End turn," Bakura said smugly, the letter 'T' was visible in the mist, Yami bit his lip in concentration, "give up, you cannot win, nothing in your deck can stop me,"
(He's wrong, we have three cards) Yami heard his hikari's voice,
((Yes, but even if we draw one, how will I summon it ?))
(Yami, don't tell me you forgot about them) Yugi mentally pointed to the face down cards, (all we need is an Egyptian God)
((Yes, we must believe in the Heart Of The Cards)) Yami replied, then closed the link, closing his eyes, hoping the cards would give him what he wanted, pulling a card from his deck, he smiled,
"Bakura, do you remember how I defeated you last time ?" Yami asked the thief
Bakura narrowed his eyes, but didn't reply, although Yami knew he remembered,
"I activate my face down card, Card Destruction, this forces us to discard our entire hands to the graveyard, then draw the same amount of cards," Bakura blinked, wondering what Yami was doing, but said nothing.
"Now, I play my other face down card, Monster Reborn, to bring back, Slifer The Sky Dragon," Harry saw flashes of lightning as a giant beast drifted into the Gryffindor common room, Harry wondered how it fit in, it could easily destroy the whole room without doing anything, but the room seemed to somehow grow bigger, Harry glanced around, no one had noticed the creature, except him, and maybe … Harry glanced up to see a shocked Bakura gazing up at the great beast, maybe he wasn't the only person that could see that thing.
Yami grinned; Bakura shook his head in surprise,
(Oh well, you gave it your best Yami) Ryou's voice drifted in Bakura's thoughts,
((SHUT UP ALREADY !)) Sweat trickled down Bakura's face, he was thankful Marik wasn't commentating.
Marik had actually wandered off, thinking the duel would be over since Yami didn't have many options, but he had hurried back once he heard a roar. Once he got back to Yami and Bakura he stared at Slifer, just like Battle City he thought to himself, he saw Harry staring up at Slifer as well, narrowing his eyes slightly, could Harry see the God ?
Yami chuckled, "It's all over Bakura, Slifer, destroy him." Bakura didn't flinch as the great beast opened its mouth, Harry gasped though, Marik noticed this, Slifer's attack shot at the table, Harry thought they were all dead, but Slifer's attack disappeared as soon as it touched Bakura, the darkness also disappeared, Yami grinned at the fuming Bakura.
Harry blinked in confusion, were had all the monsters gone,
"Yugi wins," Harry heard Marik's voice next too him, he thought he could hear sadness in the Egyptians voice, "again," Marik added darkly, only Harry heard, he looked quizzically at the tanned boy, but Marik didn't notice.
Meanwhile Bakura was glaring at Yami, as if to say 'how dare you win,' Yami just smiled innocently at him,
"That's was so easy," he said slyly, knowing this would annoy Bakura, Bakura growled, Harry could feel hatred radiating off Bakura, Ron was looking slightly worried, Hermione was glaring at everyone, Harry had discovered Hermione highly disapproved of Duel Monsters.
(Yami don't !) Ryou was yelling as loud as he could, he could also feel the anger, he knew his Yami was going to do something that wouldn't end happily for Yami, but Bakura had blocked Ryou out completely.
(Yami ! that wasn't nice) Yugi was also complaining about his Yami's actions,
((I was just having a little fun Yugi))
(Well, that could lead to Bakura trying to kill you, then us having to tell Dumbledore about our items !)
((Oh, I never knew that could happen)) Yami replied worried,
"I was only kidding Bakura," Yami said quickly, trying to calm the spirit down,
"Too late Pharaoh," Marik stated the obvious, Harry glanced at Marik, had Marik just called Yugi Pharaoh ? But Harry didn't dwell on this thought for Bakura had just leapt across the table in an attempt to strangle Yami, Hermione yelped, Ron stared,
"It's just a game," his words were heard by no one, the girls screamed and the boys backed away from Yami and Bakura,
"STUPID IDIOTIC DUMB PHARAOH !" Bakura yelled, Yami struggled to breath,
"Stop strangling me Tomb Robber !" Yami managed to whisper those few words.
Harry stared at 'Yugi' and 'Ryou' why were such good friends fighting, just because of a game ? He thought to himself wait, were was Marik ? Harry looked around until his eyes rested on the Egyptian, who was actually leaning against the wall laughing.
"Some friend he is." Harry heard the familiar voice of Hermione; she was also looking at the laughing Marik, her face full of anger she marched over to the blonde. Meanwhile Yami had managed to remove Bakura's hands from around his neck, and was now trying to stop the thief from punching him in the face.
Hermione meanwhile had stopped by Marik; she then started shouting at him about being a good friend, reminding Marik a lot of Teà.
"Don't worry, they always fight," Marik stopped Hermione's speech, managing not to laugh, Hermione stared at him as if to say 'how dumb are you ?'
"THEIR TRYING TO KILL EACH OTHER !" she screamed at Marik, then turned to Ron, who immediately replied the unasked question,
"No way Hermione, they'll kill me," he glanced nervously at the fighting spirits, Hermione huffed,
"Ron's right, they'll kill him." Marik simply said, Hermione stared at him.
"I'll try to stop them," Harry said sadly, Hermione smiled at him, Harry walked over to the spirits, by now Yami's nose was bleeding badly and Bakura's left eyes was bruised.
Harry tried grabbing Bakura's arm, but his reward was an elbow in the stomach, Harry staggered back slightly, how much power did this Bakura have ? He heard Ron sigh, happy he hadn't gone, and Hermione gasp, then shouting as Hermione yelled at Marik.
Marik sighed in defeat, then walked over to try to help Harry stop Bakura and Yami fighting, he also tried grabbing Bakura's arm, but got punched instead of elbowed,
"Maybe we should try working together," Harry said weakly, Marik nodded, they both grabbed hold of Bakura's arms, and finally managed to pull him off Yami, Marik managed to hold Bakura back while Harry stopped Yami from continuing the fight.
(YAMI !) Both hikari's yelled, but their Yami's ignored them.
Yami, however, soon returned to normal, Harry let go of his arms, Yami lifted his hand, when he lowered it, it was covered in his blood, he glared at Bakura, but did nothing,
"This time, you've gone too far," he said simply,
"Idiot, you can't win without an Egyptian God card," Bakura snarled, Yami didn't reply, "You would've lost to me then and at Battle City," Yami shook his head,
"I can beat you without a God card,"
"Prove it," Yami shook his head, blood slowly poured out his nose, Yami ignored it, he turned and walked towards the stairs, his cloak blew in a window unknown to everyone. Bakura growled, then pulled his arms free of Marik's hold, turned and walked towards the portrait, glaring at them all before exiting. Marik sighed unhappily.
Ron breathed out, Hermione shook her head, slowly everyone returned to what they had been doing, though many spoke of what had just happened, Harry shook his head, what had just happened ? He turned to see Marik walking towards the portrait,
"Were are you going ?" he asked, Marik glanced back, annoyed Harry had noticed him,
"To make sure Bakura doesn't destroy anything," Marik muttered, Harry raised an eyebrow, then asked a question that had been forgotten in all the confusion.
"Why does Ryou call Yugi 'Pharaoh' and Yugi call Ryou 'Tomb Robber' ?" Harry made sure he said Ryou, and that he put emphasis on their names, Marik flinched, Harry could see he was having trouble answering.
"Well, err, Yugi's called Pharaoh because, well, he's really good at games," Marik concluded, "and Bakura, well, he robs stuff," Marik said desperately, he couldn't be bothered thinking of a good excuse, but Harry smiled anyway, Marik quickly jumped out the portrait and ran down the hall, wishing he had the Millennium Ring so he could find Bakura.
Harry sighed, Ron looked up,
"What's wrong ?" he asked, Harry looked over to his best friend, unsure if he should say anything. But soon shook his head, he wouldn't worry Ron yet.
Marik continued running down various hallways, he knew Bakura had probably slipped into darkness, but still he ran. As he sped around a corner he crashed into someone there.
"HEY !"
"Bakura !" Marik recognised the voice,
"Marik, why are you following me ?" Bakura asked simply,
Marik shook his head, "because, if your not careful everyone is going to find out about you and Yami, Harry already suspects you !"
"Just erase his memory idiot," Bakura said simply,
"I can't," Marik replied icily, Bakura blinked,
"What !"
"I can't, there's some type of magic, stopping anyone from entering his mind," Marik sighed, Bakura shook his head,
"He could see the monsters in the duel." Marik added bluntly.
"How do you know that ?" Bakura glared at Marik, his eyes glinted madly,
"When Yami summoned Slifer, Harry looked up at it,"
"So what do you want me to do ?"
"Be more careful you baka !" Marik shouted,
Bakura glared at him, his eyes full of anger once again, Marik glared back. For a while they stared, it seemed to have turned into a contest, Marik finally growled and turned away,
"Do what you want, tell Harry for all I care," Marik said as he walked away, his cloak billowed out, his hair blown slightly, making him look very like his Yami, Marik turned the corner and disappeared.
"But you do care," Bakura whispered to himself, "for you would have to reveal your secrets too." Bakura felt a presence next to him; looking to his side he saw his hikari.
He waited for his hikari too speak, but the silence lingered for what seemed like hours,
"Are you mad ?" Bakura asked, not caring for his hikari's answer,
"No." Ryou's answer caught Bakura off guard, he stared at his hikari in amazement, "I don't think Yami should've said that, he would've lost if he hadn't drawn Slifer, but next time, try not to get so angry."
"Who said I'd lose next time ?" Bakura grinned, then turned and started walking back to common room, but soon decided against it, and turned and headed for the grounds.
The rain poured down, making it almost impossible to see anything, Bakura stepped out into the rain, he was soaking in minutes, but he didn't care, he lay back on the muddy ground, as if it were sun beating down on him, he had a lot of thinking to do.
Yami sat down on the bed,
((Sorry Yugi)) he quickly apologised,
(That's ok Yami) although Yami could tell his hikari was still upset,
((I don't know why I did that))
Yugi sighed (You don't have to make up excuses Yami) Yami went to say something, but was soon interrupted by Yugi again (I need to think).
A short time after Bakura returned, looking like he had gone swimming, Yami looked at him quizzically, Bakura simply pointed to the window were Yami could see the rain.
"Um, sorry," Yami said, holding out his hand,
"Yeh," Bakura replied, then shook Yami's hand, wishing he had stayed out in the rain, he didn't like everyone staring at him.
"Finally." Hermione said, Ron grinned, but Harry looked confused, and suspicious, Marik wasn't the only one who noticed this time.
What do you know ? Bakura thought.
"oww," Harry gritted his teeth as his scar started to burn, Hermione looked at him, worried. Then it suddenly stopped, Harry removed his hand carefully, confused, "I'm ok." He glanced at Bakura, and saw what looked like a golden pendant.
Bakura narrowed his eyes, know he knew Harry suspected them, Marik looked at him as if to say 'told you so,' but Bakura ignored him, and walked over to Harry,
"Are you ok ?" Bakura asked, trying to sound like Ryou.
"I don't know anything." Harry whispered.
Ryou and Bakura both gasped.
----------------------
Ok, this is shorter than the other chapter, I didn't mean that part to go on for so long, I was going to have lesson's in this chapter too ¬.¬ oh well, always next chapter. Yugi, Marik and Ryou learn to fly soon, that chapter will be fun to write.
Smiles evilly
Yugi, Marik and Ryou: Uh oh
And I have no idea why Harry heard what Bakura thought, I just decided it would be a good way to end a chapter o.O oh well.
Ok, I know I use the English and Japanese card names, it's just I like Ouija Board better than Destiny Board, all other cards will be the English version.
Review please it makes me very happy.
