Chapter 2: Spirits and Wands
Professor Dumbledore led Harry out of number 4 privet Drive.
"Professor," Harry began, "what happened to your – "
"When the time is right, Harry," said Dumbledore, "but not here. Now, before I drop you off at the Weasley's for the last wonderful weeks of summer, I would like you to meet four new students who will be attending your year at Hogwarts. Since I am rather busy and since you need an escort –"
"An escort, but Professor!"
"Harry, these are bad times and Voldemort wants you the most. Death Eaters are everywhere. Back on track. Lupin will escort you, Ron and Hermione to Diagon Alley with the new students. They will be staying with you at Ron's home until the school year starts. Now grab my arm…no the other one." Harry moved towards Dumbledore's good arm and grabbed hold. In a loud pop they were at the Burrow. Dumbledore knocked on the door. There was scuffling around as someone stood at the other side.
"Who is it?" came the voice of Molly Weasley.
"It is I, Lemon drop lover, bringing Skinny Scar." The door opened and Molly ushered them inside. She turned to Harry who had a look of confusion on his face.
"Code, Harry," she explained, "we don't who's parading as who anymore so we use a code changed regularly Ron and Hermione are upstairs. You're in Ronald's room."
Harry was halfway up the stairs when Ron and Hermione came down.
"Harry, Harry!" exclaimed Hermione, giving him a tight hug, "we missed you!"
"Hermione arrived last week," explained Ron, "First she missed us, now she missed you. No big really. Now that you're here, she can't wait to meet the new students! She has a one track mind, Hermione."
"It'd be fascinating!" exclaimed Hermione excitedly. " I wonder who they are?"
"Where's Fred and George?" asked Harry.
"Oh, you've noticed," said Ron, "the house is a bit quiet. Fred and George opened a joke shop a couple of days ago. Ginny's at the shop with them. Said something about helping them before she went off to school."
"Harry! Ron! Hermione!" called Mrs. Weasley from downstairs. "Remus is downstairs! He's taking you to Diagon Alley!" Hermione bustled down the stairs, nearly killing Harry and Ron in the process.
"Oh! When do we meet the new students?" she asked on the verge of excitement.
"CALM DOWN, Hermione," said Ron, "if you act like this towards the newbies, you'll make them pass out from shock." He and Harry exchanged grins.
"But it seems so interesting! Four new students starting so late! Why didn't their school accept them?" Hermione questioned.
"Their school is overcrowded. No other school would take them. Oh! We're going to be late! Harry, Ron, Hermione come on!" said Remus. He held up a gum wrapper. All four of them touched the gum wrapper. There was the familiar jerk and they were gone.
"Got it!" cheered Marik as he held up the Millennium Puzzle. He didn't have it for long, because someone took it out of his hands. Marik turned to see a man in shabby robes quite pale. With him was a boy with flaming red hair and freckles, a boy with messy jet black hair and green eyes, and a girl with bushy brown hair.
"Hello, said the man, "I am Remus Lupin, resigned professor at Hogwarts. These are three of your new classmates, Harry, Ron, and Hermione."
"I'm Yugi," said Yugi, " and this is Ryou, Marik, and Seto." He gestured to each teen as he said their names.
"You're Yugi Muto! The King of Games!" exclaimed Harry and out of the corner of his eye he saw Seto scowl at the mention of it. He continued, "and you're Seto Kaiba! My cousin has pictures of you in his Duel Monster's magazines." Lupin looked at the Millennium Item in his hands.
"Who's is this?" he asked.
"MINE!" shouted both Yugi and Yami Bakura at the same time. Lupin sighed.
"Who's does it REALLY belong to?"
"ME! It belongs to me!" Yugi chirped. Lupin handed him the puzzle.
"Yey!" Yami Yugi phased out of the puzzle transparently. Lupin and the Gryffindors gaped.
"What?" asked Yugi, seeing the looks of confusion on their faces.
"There's a spirit next to you!" said Ron, still gaping.
"You can see me?" asked Yami, confused.
"Yea…"
"In the Wizarding World, seeing spirits and ghosts are common." Lupin looked at the rest of the newer students. "Do you three have any spirits?" Yami Bakura phased transparently as Ryou took over.
/Seto! Let me out/
/You have got to be kidding, Set. There is no way I am letting you out again today. You are more than I can handle. Go back to do whatever you do./
/It's boring. Besides, Atem (1) is out there. You know, my cousin! PLEASE? I won't bother you the rest of the day/
/No./
/Week/
/Fine./
Set phases out of the Rod, which was still inside the case. He looked around and the first person he saw was Yami Bakura.
"YOU AGAIN! YOU PIECE OF TRASH! WHY I OUTA…..HOW DARE YOU ANGER THE PHARAOH!"
"He didn't anger me…yet," said Yami.
"It doesn't matter, cousin! DIE THEIF!" Set lunged at Yami Bakura but was stopped by Yami pulling back on his priest robes.
"No Set! Stop this!" The four wizards watched the spirits quarrel.
"This is Yami, by the way!" said Yugi cheerfully, as if spirits fought all the time and this was nothing to be concerned for, " the ancient looking one is Set, he's Yami's cousin, and the one over there laughing at Yami and Set is Ryou Bakura's Yami. We call him Bakura. Ryou is Ryou to us. Set was the High Priest of Egypt, and Yami was the pharaoh 5000 years ago. Bakura was also from the time period but he was the King of Thieves."
"You can explain better on the way. We have to go to Diagon Alley and get all of the supplies for this year." Harry said as Lupin reached into his pocket. He pulled out a dirty glove and held it out.
"Everyone grab hold. One finger will do." Everyone touched the garment and they disappeared. Lucius Malfoy stepped out from where he was hiding behind a tree.
Is it just me or were there spirits inhabiting the bodies of those boys? Why was that Lupin there with Potter? Perhaps Dumbledore knows something. I must warn the Dark Lord. With that, Malfoy disapperated with a loud crack, not caring how many Muggles saw him do it.
The portkey dropped everyone outside the Leaky Cauldron, the pub that was also a gateway between the Magic and Non Magic worlds. Only Lupin and Ryou were standing although Ryou looked sick.
"Get off me!" Both Marik and Yugi shot off the ground and allowed Seto to get back on his feet.
"Now first we have to go to Gringotts Bank," said Lupin. He led them to a large white building with waxy marble floors.
"These are goblins. They run the bank, you can exchange you money here."
Yugi walked up to the nearest goblin behind a desk.
"UH, hello. Can you exchange yen for whatever you use here?" Yugi handed the goblin some bills and they were exchanged for silver, bronze and gold pieces. After everyone had exchanged their money and vaults were opened, they left the bank.
"Now, where would you like to go?" Lupin asked. Ryou looked at the different shops.
"WANDS!" They all entered Olivanders wand shop. There were boxes all over the place. Harry recognized the chair Hagrid broke on his first visit to the shop had been repaired.
"Hello." The group jumped to see Mr. Olivander, an elderly wizard before them. "Who's first?"
"I'll go," said Marik. Olivander gave him a wand.
"Mahogany and Phoenix tail feather, springy, 10 ¾ in." Marik waved the wand as if he was conducting an orchestra. The Millennium Ring zoomed off of Ryou's neck, bashed everyone on the head with it, and wet back to Ryou. After several more accidents, Marik finally got his wand. It was Holly and black Unicorn Hair, supple, 10 ½ inches. The rest:
Yugi: Maple and phoenix feather, springy 10 ¾ inches.
Ryou: Rosewood and phoenix feather, flexible, 11 inches
Seto: Holly and Dragon heartstring of a White Dragon,(coughBEWDcough)supple, 12 in.
