'thoughts for a character'

Ryou sat patiently waiting in his living quarters. Today was the day that he and Joey would be leaving for England. Someone from the staff at the magic school Hogwarts was soon to be arriving at his home. His father had left again for a dig but promised that if Ryou had any way of communication he could contact him. He WANTED him to contact him, in other words. He had everything needed. His suitcase full of his essential items, money in order to exchange it for wizarding currency, and the millennium ring was safely tucked inside his button down shirt.

The door bell rang, making Ryou jump for he didn't expect them to be there for another couple of minutes. He grabbed his suitcase and opened the door to be met with the purple-eyed gaze of Yugi Motou, his long since rotten ex-friend. 'What is HE doing here!' Ryou gasped inwardly.

/What is this scum doing at your door, Hikari? I thought you got rid of him and his stupid "other self"/ Bakura did not sound happy to find his and his hikari's enemy at the door.
/I have no idea. Maybe he needs something…like sugar/

/Sugar? Your enemy shows up at your door and you think he wants SUGAR? What did I ever tell you about NOT underestimating the enemy Ryou! He's not here for SUGAR! He's here for blood! First he'll stab you multiple times, make you watch as he steals your most valuable possessions and---/ Ryou had to cut the link because Yugi started to talk.

"Hello Bakura, I have heard you were leaving the city?" It was a question, though to the white haired boy it sounded like a hopeful statement. He wouldn't let his Yami down and back away from this.

"What's it to you? Does it matter if I'm leaving or not? I thought we were beyond foolish conversations such as these," Ryou growled in irritation, resisting the urge to smirk as his Yami howled with laughter from his soul room and Yugi took an involuntary step back as he heard these words from the once hesitant and shy Ryou.

"You've been alone too long, Bakura. I knew we shouldn't have let you get away from us. I've came to take your ring. We don't need another of YOUR Yami's running around! Hopefully I'm not too late to save you from his horrible influences," Yugi responding. Ryou really started to wonder if the shorter boy had gone schizophrenic, or he was talking about the group he hung out with. Ryou secretly hoped it was the schizophrenia, but wouldn't say that allowed…or…

"Who is this 'we' you speak of so fondly? Is there something that's happened?" Ryou taunted the other hikari. "And in answer to you having my ring? Well I'd rather not let you touch it in anyway! You may think my Yami is horrible, but he's a LOT better than you were and are. So lie off of us, leave my domain, and go jump in a lake so I never have to see your face and hear your voice again!" Ryou hissed through his teeth, somehow managing to sound exactly like his Yami. Yugi seemed to not realize that Ryou still stood in front of him.

"I knew you'd take control you evil spirit! Now be good and hand yourself over to the GOOD side! With an emphasis on good," this was just too much, Ryou just started laughing. With a little help from his Yami it sounded more evil and Bakura also added a bit of shadows, just for show.

"What are you going to do now Pharaoh? Come to save the peaceful world again!" Ryou laughed and when Yugi ran off in fear his cackle turned into fits of laughing out of pure amusement. "That…was…hysterical!" He laughed.

/I'd say! Never thought you had it in you, kid! Great job messing with the incarnated Pharaoh's head, I'll make you tomb robber material yet/ Ryou could feel his Yami smirking at all the things he was plotting to do, but the teen could care less. Right at that moment Joey came running to the door.

"Ryou? I saw Yugi running away screaming about calling an exorcist? Is something wrong?" Joey's eyes widened when his best friend just started laughing his head off once again.

"Have I missed something," asked a kind looking woman from the doorway.

"Oh!" Joey exclaimed, "Ryou, this is Professor Sprout. She's out escort thing!" Joey smiled.

"It's nice to meet you Professor," replied Ryou kindly to the woman.((A/N: let's say that Joey already got the language charm cast upon him. Too lazy to go through with that right now! ()() Back to the chapter then?))

"Well, if you have everything, then we should go to the airport. I believe we need to catch a plane on time, right?" stated the professor with a smile.

About two hours later found Joey, Ryou, and Professor Sprout sitting aboard an airplane waiting for take-off. "Excuse me, Professor…may I ask a question?" Ryou asked politely.

"Well certainly, what is it you wish to know?" She thought he was going to ask about the school. Not many exchange students ever went to Hogwarts. Especially exchange students who should start in the first year, but are actually starting in the sixth.

"I was wondering. Since you're a witch, well…wouldn't you be able to just, say, transport us, with magic?" Ryou had a slightly baffled look on his face.

"Well, we could but I like airplanes so decided we may as well travel a way you two may be used to!" She smiled at him. "Do you have any questions about the school?"

"I do!" said Joey excitedly, "what kind of classes are we going to be taking. Like…what do you and the other teachers teach?" Ryou gawked at his friend, not expecting that question to spew from Joey's mouth.

"Well, I teach herbology, which is a class all about magical plants and how to care for them," when speaking of her job, Professor Sprout had a very proud tone to her voice.

"You'll be taking Potions for sure, Transfiguration where you'll learn how to change objects into other objects, Defense Against the Dark Arts where you will learn defensive and offensive spells, and many others which you'll probably choose when you get to the school and are sorted into your houses." She explained to them.

"Houses?" Asked Ryou, confused, "What do you mean by that?"

"While at Hogwarts all students are sorted into a 'house' where you and the others in your house will take classes together within your year and sleep in your house dorms. There are four at Hogwarts school. There's Hufflepuff, I'm the head of this one, and it's for the more patient ones, Ravenclaw for the smartest of students, though people not in this house can be equally or more in tune with their magic, Gryffindor for the brave and daring, and Slytherin for the cunning students." She told them and smiled as both boys took in every word that she said.

Hours later and the strange experience where Joey attempted to wake a sleeping Ryou who promptly smacked the blonde's head into the seats in front of them and got some dirty looks from the occupants, the plane landed in London's airport.((A/N:Is there an airport in London? .)) The three of them, glad to be able to stand and move around. They attained their luggage and headed out to the streets. Professor Sprout led the two of them to a shabby and dirty looking pub, whose sign read: The Leaky Cauldron. She led them to the back after they had received strange stared due to the strange coloring of Ryou's hair. She took out a stick and tapped a wall which opened to a place she told them to be Diagon alley. Ryou and Joey stood in the door way for awhile in shock at what they saw. It was truly, magical.((Oh that sounded so weird……….))

"First to Gringotts then, you brought money to exchange correct?" When both of them nodded the group made their way to a tall white building. Reading the warning sign on the second entrance doors, Ryou had to stop himself from smirking at it's caution. They exchanged their money, sadly Joey had gotten a couple of goblins upset and he got kicked a couple of times on their way out, but it was thought to have gone well in the bank.

Next came the time to get robes. Ryou got, once again, stares from the witches and wizards on the street, some of them scared him. He was thankful to get into the Robes shop. They finished getting measured and were told to pick up the uniforms an hour or so later. They went to Flourish and Blott's to get their school books and Ryou even picked up a copy of "Hogwarts, A History" so he could read up on the school before actually attending it. After getting everything else they needed the group head for Ollivanders: Makers of Find Wands.

As Ryou, Joey, and the professor walked in an old man came to the desk and looked the two boys over. "So you're the exchange students, eh" he said and instructed Joey to come and stand in front of him. "Wand hand please." Joey held out his writing hand and let the man measure him, though why the measuring had to take place, Joey wasn't sure. That is until he realized the tape measure was measuring on it's own and he stood there watching it until a wooden stick was placed before him and he took it. He waved it as instructed and was surprised to find out that he had just burnt the tape measure in half. This happened a couple more times to other objects until he found the right wand, Beechwood and Phoenix feather, 10 ½ inches. Ryou was motioned forward.

"Now that's a peculiar hairstyle, how did you manage it?" asked Mr. Ollivander.

"I-it's natural, sir." Replied Ryou and was meant with an 'of course' from the old man who left to find a wand. The same happened to him, though much less destructive than Joey's, much to Bakura's disappointment. Mr. Ollivander seemed to be having difficulties, until he had a sudden idea and ran the back of the store. He came back with a very dusty box and pulled out a beautifully polished wand. He held it out to Ryou, who took it and felt the warmth of his wand choosing him.

"I've been trying to sell that one for ages. Ebony and heartstring of a Norwegian ridgeback, a very old one at that, 8 ½ inches long," Ryou didn't understand much of what the man was saying but didn't think of it anyway. They paid for their wands and the professor lead them to the pet store.

"I've always wanted a pet," said Ryou, "but my father never allowed it, said I wouldn't have enough time to attend to it when he was gone." He walked around the many cages of animals and tried to find one he liked. His eyes rested on a small kitten. The kitten had white fur with black spots((A/N: like a cow! MOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!-)), it opened it's big eyes when Ryou came by and mewed at him sweetly. Ryou couldn't help it! The little kitten looked so adorable…so he bought it!

Picking up their robes was uneventful, but the walk back to the pub was something neither of them wanted to ever happen again. Someone had just tried to steal Joey's bag. He yelled for them to get it back and was quickly knocked out of breath as Ryou's things were shoved into his hands. His eyes narrow and hair sticking up more than it normally did. In a matter of seconds there was a chase going through Diagon Alley. Bakura chased the thief until he cornered him and, reaching for the bag, it was taken from the quivering thief and Bakura made sure this person never EVER stole again. Though, minus points to him, Ryou did manage to stop him from either A, sending the guy to the shadow realm and B, killing him. So he gave him a nasty glare and threat, leaving the quivering thief and returning back to the other two as though nothing had happened. Joey decided not to bother Ryou, who had regained control, about what the tomb robber had just done. He just said his thank you and they went back to their rooms in The Leaky Cauldron.
