shakes head I wouldn't be so sure about Bakura! Since the goblins HATE thieves! I'm betting that the goblins have wards set up to prevent thieves from getting away so easily! And I strongly doubt the goblins would be so easily frightened by Duel Monsters!
Answer:
Of course the goblins will have up magical barriers, wards and what not to stop thieves. But normal wizards under Lord Voldemort's command stole from there in the first book.
And I never said anything about the duel monsters frightening the goblins. I mentioned only that if he wanted to he could steal the whole bank.

Answer:
They will met Harry soon, I promise, maybe in the next chapter or now.
Maybe they will mistake him for being a student, maybe not. Wouldn't be a surprise if I told you.

I know I might find it in the next chapter but how's the new teacher? continute your fantastic work :)
Answer:
Now you ask who is the teacher. Yugi is the main teacher, and as Yugi said to Dumbledore, Yami also helps on occasion. With nothing else to do all day it gets boring, especially since all he wants to do is be near Yugi.
History Can't Help But Repeat Itself
Review: In case you forgot what happened last time…
/I'm sure that if Bakura put his mind to it he could easily break in and out of here and not get caught. Could take the whole bank with him if he wanted, leaving all the vaults empty./
\Probably, but we shouldn't praise him to do it.\
Smiling Yugi shook his head at the poor bank, knowing that as soon as Bakura saw this sign he would take it as a challenge and break in. He could never resist a good challenge when it came to stealing; he wasn't the King of Thieves after all for doing nothing.
Chapter 5
Walking through the doors, Yugi noticed all the goblins walking around, attending the desks and leading people away into the back of the bank. Stopping Yugi looked around and wondered for a moment.
/Do you think that the goblins have their own kind of magic that the wizards can't harness/ he queried.
\Maybe, but they obviously aren't using it since, I can't feel anything. Wait a moment. There was a small sharp spike of magic.\
Yami paused for a moment assessed the magic that he felt.
\I'd say that it is more powerful than the wizards at full power, but shadow magic is still stronger by far.\
/So if Bakura wanted in it wouldn't be too hard right. Even though I don't think he should steal, I really don't want him to get caught. Magic always seems to kill when it includes someone with shadow magic./
\Yugi, if he gets caught, so what. It's Bakura that we are talking about here, he always finds his way out if he gets into trouble. But yes, unfortunately he would easily be able to overpower these small goblins.\
/Really, that's good. Ryou wouldn't want his boyfriend stuck in the wizard's equivalent of jail. Anyway, these goblins, they look like uglier versions of the goblin duel monsters./
\True, I wouldn't insult the goblins and say that aloud, we need to get money from them.\ Yami teased.
/I would never say that out loud Yami/ Yugi indignantly replied.
Yugi walked away to the end of a que with a sign, "Muggle money to Wizard Money".
\I know that aibou.\ Yami called out as Yugi joined the line.
The line was short and soon they had reached the transaction table. A small stack of information cards with an explanation of wizard's money was on the table. Taking one, Yugi put it away in his pocket to read later.
"Sir, how much would you like to exchange?" the goblin asked.
"How much is muggle money worth compared to wizard money?" Yugi asked.
"Wizard and muggle money are almost equal, including in prices of items," the goblin said.
Thinking for a moment, Yugi exchanged quite a bit of money so that his bag was full of mainly gold coins with a few silver and a few bronze.
As they walked out of the bank, Yugi pulled the card out of his pocket and read it.
Gold Galleons 1 Galleon 17 Sickles
Silver Sickles 1 Sickle 29 Knuts
Bronze Knuts
He handed it to Yami, who quickly read over it and handed it back. Don't want to let the wizards try and screw them over. It was bad enough that the humans did it.
Looking up, Yugi spotted a pet shop. His eyes widened as he saw many unusual creatures, including many owls.
Rushing across the busy street through the crowds, Yugi immediately was out of Yami's sight. Seeing Yugi was gone from sight, Yami didn't panic like he used to when he first lost Yugi in a large crowd, but followed his energy signature into the pet store.
As Yami strode in, he passed by a few wizards who looked at his hair strangely for a few moments then turned away and finally found Yugi near the back of the shop in a section for foreign animals from all over the globe.
"Want to get a pet Yami?" Yugi enquired.
"Only if you want to, you have to look after it too," Yami answered.
"Thanks Yami. I don't want a toad, too warty and not my style. Owls are everywhere, so everyone has them. Cats shed too much fur and are always demanding to have attention. Rats are so boring. So I came into this section." Yugi rambled quickly.
Yami nodded, and headed towards the Egyptian animals. A Spitting cobra was coiled up in a glass tank. A Falcon stood in a wire cage beside the snake.
Following Yami, Yugi went up to the wire cage and was sure from his first sight that this was the animal that he wanted to take home.
The falcon awoke from its slumber, looking hazily and impassive to their gaze, not at all concerned. Its sharp eyes examined them both, not worried at all.
Yugi moved forward and was about to touch the cage when a woman quickly came over frantically.
"Please sir, do not touch that cage. That bird is very temperamental and has hurt many an unwary person," she cautioned.
Yugi frowned at the bird, and it came forward towards the edge of the cage and rubbed his feathers against the side of the cage gently. A sign that he wanted to be petted.
"I don't think that he will." Yugi replied.
Yami also seemed unperturbed by the bird and wasn't stopping his hikari.
Reaching forward careful not to be too quick and scare the falcon and not too slow as to make it think that he was afraid, he gently petted the feathers on the wings.
The falcon leaned into the touch surprising the woman immensely.
"When was this was caught, and where?" Yami asked.
"It was caught, I believe in Egypt over the tomb of a forgotten pharaoh over a year ago. It has never showed anyone the slightest bit of affection and I thought that we were neve going to sell it," she said. "If you take him, you can have him for half-price."
"Thank you," Yugi gratefully smiled at her and handed her the money. "Yami do you like him?"
"Yes," Yami agreed to Yugi's choice.
Picking up the cage carefully, Yugi led the way out of the shop and back to the crowed streets. Settling for a quiet place near the shop, Yugi looked at Yami.
"What do you think we should name him?" Yugi asked.
Yami though for a moment. What would be the best name for a falcon, an Egyptian one at that. Then it occurred to him…
"How about Horus. He is an Egyptian Falcon, so why not name him after the Falcon god Horus who protects and guides the pharaohs." Yami stated.
Turning to the falcon he spoke seriously to the bird.
"So what do you think my falcon? Should we call you Horus?" Yugi said.
The falcon nodded its head gently and squawked.
Satisfied, he said, "Good, its settled then, your name is Horus."
Not really happy with the cage that Horus was in, Yugi looked into Horus's eyes and asked, "If I let you out will you stay and come back when you are needed?"
Horus looked at Yugi almost begging to let him be free to spread his wings.
Taking this as his answer, Yugi undid the lock on the cage and set the cage down on the ground. Noticing that attached to the base was an armband for the falcon to stand on.
Quickly wrapping it around his wrist, he held out his arm for Horus to climb onto. Horus jumped from the edge of the cage onto Yugi's arm, careful not to land on his clothes, while Yami watched from behind Yugi.
Stretching out his wings. Horus took flight, soon returning to Yugi and landing gracefully on his armband.
Yugi smiled and softly spoke, "Go on, I know you want to explore. Once your done, find us."
Taking the invitation, Horus squawked and flew away.
Yugi watched as he flew further away.
"He'll come back," Yami whispered in his ear. "Let's go and get the rest of the stuff that we need."
Nodding, Yugi gave the cage to Yami who stored sent it on a quick journey through the shadow realm to the bedroom they were currently occupying in Ryou and Bakura's house.
"So what would be the most important item on the list?" Yugi asked Yami.
"The text book. We have to find a suitable one. We should hurry up with that, or the students will have to order them in to school," Yami answered.
"Right then, book shop it is."
Following the flow of the crowds, they made it to a large bookshop, which was crowded with students and adults alike. Shuffling through the people, they made it to an empty space of the shop, pausing to try and gather their bearings. Looking up, Yugi saw that it was the Ancient Magical History section. Most of the books appeared to have thin layers of dust coating their covers.
Picking up a title, Yugi couldn't help but notice that it was a recently published text made for schooling.
--Ancient Magic: The Beginnings--
"It's perfect," Yugi mumbled as he skimmed the pages.
Taking it to the counter, he paid for it, informing the shopkeeper that he was going to need to supply quite a few for the Hogwarts children who were going to all need a copy of it.
The shopkeeper put the order in and went back to work.
As they were walking out of the bookshop Yugi literally walked into a small group of students who were speaking. Catching him before he could fall onto the ground, Yami pulled him up and into his arms, where Yugi instantly felt safe and protected.
"I'm so sorry for walking into you." Yugi apologised to the boy he had walked into.
"That's okay, I was not exactly looking where I was going either," a boy with raven black hair replied. "I haven't seen you around before, do you go to Hogwarts?"
"Yes, it'll be my first time," Yugi replied.
"Really, no wonder, your hair would make you stick out like a sour thumb, but not in a bad way or anything. Oh by the way my name is Harry Potter. These are my friends Hermione Granger and Ron Weasley," the boy said.
"I'm Yugi Mouto, and this is Yami," Yugi said politely. "I know how well my hair make's me stick out. Its natural and I like the attention, otherwise I would have changed it."
