History Can't Help But Repeat Itself
Review: In case you forgot what happened last time…
Another pulse ran through their bodies.
/Yami, I can feel this magic coming from over in this direction. It's almost constantly coming from over there. Let's go and find out exactly what it is./ Yugi suggested with a smile.
Chapter 2
\Yugi\ Yami began \What if it's dangerous, I don't want you to get hurt, not if I don't have to put you in harms way.\
/Come on Yami/ Yugi begged hoping he wouldn't have to pull the puppy dog eyes on Yami, but would soon if he didn't get his own way. /You know that you want to go and see it, you're just as curious as I am./
Yami paused for a moment and sighed gently. Yugi was right on target as per usual, it was very hard to put anything past this little aibou. Tugging at the edge of his consciousness did the nagging inquisitive feeling of wanting, no needing to know what was causing this feeling.
"Alight, alright aibou," Yami soft spoke next to Yugi's ear. "Let's go, I know that you'll only harass me for the rest of the day till you get your way in the end, won't you my little hikari?"
"I sure will," Yugi quickly answered pleased.
Yami groaned in annoyance. To be annoyed all day, and probably threats of unsavoury ideas was not what he had planned on.
"To the source of all strange and unfamiliar magic we go," Yami muttered.
Yugi wrapped his hands around Yami's arm and pulled him along through the thinned out crowds and onto the streets of London. Following the trail of what seemed to almost be a path of magical residue, towards the source. As the followed the path, it grew larger and the pulses of magic grew stronger and more frequent.
The magical residue led them to the door of a grubby looking pub, in shabby letters that were falling off the sign read THE LEAKY CAULDRON. It was covered in magic residue so think that you could nearly touch it. Magical residue is almost impossible to pick up, and impossible to collect. It also appeared that unless you possessed extremely magical powers that you could see it.
Filtering out the magical residue from their sight, Yugi and Yami took a good look at the outside of the pub. It was indeed the source of where the magic was coming from and, it seemed that it was covered by magic so only magic users could see it. As people walked past on the street, they appeared to look away, or almost through the pub, as if it wasn't there. If anything it was like they were all under a spell not to see that it was there.
/What do you think/ Yugi enquired.
\Magical protection to stop anyone non-magical from entering and seeing something that has been hidden from the rest of the world for many years it would seem. The magic used to protect this place is young, only about ten to twelve hundred years old.\ Yami answered.
/Yami, that is old./ Yugi complained.
\Not to me, I'm at least three thousand years old.\ Yami countered.
/That you are./ Yugi said. /Must be hell to be that old, how much do your bones creak when you move/
\Ha ha aibou.\ Yami sarcastically said.
"Come on Yami, let's go in, no point in staying out here all day," Yugi said
"I'm not so sure about this aibou," Yami worriedly commented.
"Oh come on Yami. Even I can tell that there magic is not as strong as ours, ours is by far the superior. If you should feel that we are in any immediate danger you are free to hurt whoever it is that you are feeling that danger coming from." Yugi reasoned.
Yami sighed looking at the ground knowing that once again he had been beaten. It was amazing the power this little hikari had over him. Just like all other hikari's had over their Yami's.
Yami reached out and turned the door handle, opening the door for Yugi to enter first. Yami followed him only inches behind. Walking through the slightly grubby pub, Yugi led them to the bar where they sat down on a couple of stools.
A single man stood behind the bar wiping at a more or less clean beer mug. Turning to Yami and Yugi he moved to where they had sat down.
"The name is Tom, what can I get for you?" the barman asked.
With a sharp eye trained on the man, Yami saw that he was no threat and calmly answered him.
"Have you got any Egyptian beers in stock."
"Sure have," Tom answered. "Got a new shipment last night of an ancient brew, said to have been made about three thousand years ago specially for the unknown pharaoh of the time."
"Really," Yami enquired wondering.
Tom nodded his head.
'I wonder, it could be the one that I discovered and only allowed for my own table, it fits in with the time range and the unknown pharaoh, since no one but the Tomb Keepers were supposed to remember me,' Yami thought.
"I'll have one," Yami said and turned to Yugi. "You want anything aibou?"
"No thanks," Yugi replied.
Tom disappeared into the backroom behind the counter to retrieve the requested drink.
Yami and Yugi scanned the surroundings of the pub and saw many new and amazing sights, they never believed that they would ever see.
A man sitting in a back corner reading what looked like a newspaper with moving pictures, his pointer finger directed at a teaspoon in a mug on the table. The finger spun in small tight circles, and the spoon followed the course that the finger had set it.
A cleaning man whipped down the tables and with a flick of his hand, the chairs surrounding the clean, empty table floated up and landed upside down on the table.
A pair of women were sitting at a small table chatting, shopping and handbags in a pile on the floor while a feather quill scribbled down on an unrolled length of parchment paper without the aid of a hand.
Tom came back up with the bottle of beer in his hands, and paused when he saw how intrigued the pair of boys were with all the surrounding use of magic. Clearing his throat, Tom placed the bottle on the bar, as the boys turned back to him. Giving him their full attention.
"Haven't been aware of the Magical World for long?" Tom enquired.
Yugi smiled brightly, Yami remained with his poker face.
"No," Yugi replied simply.
