History Can't Help But Repeat Itself
Review: In case you forgot what happened last time…
"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."
Chapter 6:
"Well I like it," Hermione said.
"It's really natural?" Ron queried.
"You aren't from a wizarding family are you?" Harry asked.
"Yes, it is natural, and thank you Hermione. And no Harry I am not from a wizarding family. Why do you ask?" Yugi answered them.
"Because you didn't get the excited look in your eyes as if you had met a celebrity and your eyes didn't float up to my forehead where the scar is," Harry answered.
"Oh you're a celebrity?" Yugi said. "You have a scar? Why is it so important?"
Harry almost looked like he was going to fall over in surprise. Most people knew something about Harry Potter, and his famous causing of You-Know-Who's demise. Even the muggle born usually knew a little bit.
"Sorry, but we really have to go," Yugi said as he glanced at his watch. "We still have some things to get before we get the train back to where we are staying at the moment. It was nice meeting you."
Yugi hurried off, with Yami following not too far behind, although not running.
/We have to get a wand now Yami/ Yugi said. /I wonder how you find the right wand for each wizard, it would be kind of silly for you to just chose one off the shelf and buy it./
/Yes it is. There will be some thing set up to help find the right wand for each wizard./
Finding the door to the wand shop, "OLLIVANDERS", Yami opened the door, letting Yugi walked in the pile of books that they had bought.
A man wandered out from behind a shelf, poking his head out to greet them.
"Ah, welcome Professor Mouto, come for your wand I presume. Please place out your wand arm."
Yugi complied and held out his right arm, assuming that his writing arm and wand arm must be one and the same. The man pulled out a tape measure and with a flick of his wand had the tape measure floating around Yugi measuring his body from all angles.
Sitting back from Yugi, Yami watched in amusement as the tape measure floated around Yugi who looked a little uncomfortable. As the tape measure was measuring near his groin, it suddenly flopped and was thrown across the room into a wall leaving a quite a dint. A worried look was on Yugi face as he slowly turned to Yami.
\What's wrong aibou?\ Yami quested
/I don't like it that's why I made it stop. Nothing should make a person as uncomfortable as that thing did, and anyway only you are allowed to even consider being anywhere near where it was measuring./
Getting the hint of what Yugi was getting at since he couldn't see where it was measuring, Yami was about to send the tape measure to the Shadow realm, but when he looked to where it had been thrown it was gone.
The shopkeeper reappeared with a thin long box in hand, he opened it gently and pulled out what to Yugi appeared to be a stick with a handle grip. The man handed it handle grip first to Yugi. Taking it, and unsure what to do he looked to Yami for help, but he was just as clueless as what to do. Then an impatient voice came from the shopkeeper.
"Well, give it a wave!"
Feeling more than slightly foolish, Yugi waved the stick, and nothing happened. Then a vase on the desk exploded, showered them in water and glass. The wand was quickly snatched away and put back. And just as quickly replaced with a new one.
Waving this one, again for a moment nothing occurred, and a crack started to form in the window as it then shattered. The shopkeeper continued for a while, soon realizing that no ordinary wand was going to fit the requirements, he disappeared into the shelves and opened a door to the back of the shop.
As soon as he was out of earshot, Yugi turned to Yami.
"This is taking forever," Yugi whinged like a little kid, bored by all the exploding items in the shop.
Since he was going to act like a little kid, Yami decided to deal with Yugi's whinging like a mother would.
"Yugi, get over it, it will take as long as it takes and no longer, no shorter. Your whinging isn't going to make it hurry up."
All Yami receive was a smile, with a sarcastic laugh from Yugi who was not impressed.
Soon the man returned with a wand in a box covered in gold, and inlaid in the middle of the box with precious gems was the wadjet eye, better known as the eye of Horus found on all of the Millennium Items.
Gently the man brushed at the dusty top to the box, then pulled it open revealing a gold coloured wand.
"Try this one," the man insisted
Taking the wand out of the box a warm feeling crawled up his arm and filled his body with a fuzzy tingling feeling. Waving the wand from left to right and back, the three watched as a shower of crimson red and amethyst purple sparks were produced.
"Perfect," he said. "Your new wand is a very old wand, made in the time of the Ancient Egyptians. I believe it was during the reign of a very important, but forgotten pharaoh of great magic and strength. It was originally created for him to channel his magic, although it appeared that he died before he could try it. The core of the wand a unicorn tail hair and a sphinx tail hair. Made out of an alloy of gold and papyrus because of the unusual and very unstable core. It is a wand of great and dangerous power, be careful with it."
Taking it all in, Yugi looked at the wand carefully, 'At one time in history this should have been Yami's, but he died and was sealed in the Millennium Puzzle before he could try it out. What would happen if he waved it around now?'
Yugi handed the wand to Yami, who just as curious as Yugi took it into his hand and looked at it carefully.
\It sounds very much like the wand that I was having made, not to channel my magic, but for something else. I can't remember exactly, maybe to lessen the extent since the shadow magic that I was using was out of my control.\
Giving it a wave, Yami watched as more crimson red and amethyst purple sparks showered from the tip of the wand. The shopkeeper was staring quite stunned by the wands action.
"Amazing," he uttered. "Never has a wand before now responded this way and had two masters, only ever one. As the wand choses the wizard, and not the wizard the wand, what can I do?"
/Even in the wizarding world we are not even close to being normal/ Yugi groaned.
\The world would be no fun if we were normal aibou, let's pay for the wand and go home.\
Agreeing whole-heartedly with Yami, Yugi as quickly as possible paid for the wand and exited the store with all their purchases. The wand and wand box safely tucked away in a bag, away from prying eyes.
"We can't leave yet," Yugi mumbled, as he remember the list still had a few things left to get.
"What else do we need?" Yami asked.
"Quills, Parchment, and Ink. I'm also beginning to think that maybe it would also be good to get a cloak or something to wear so that we have somewhere to put our wand, because it is not going to fit in anything that we own without falling out," Yugi sighed.
"Okay, I'll go and get the equipment," Yami said. "You go and get a cloak fitted out for you, I'll be there soon."
Nodding in agreement, they branched off in different directions. Yugi soon finding a robe shop, MADAM MALKINS ROBES FOR ALL OCCASIONS. Walking in a women dressed in black robes bustled forwards and pulled Yugi into the shop and onto a small step type stool.
"So what school are you going to dear? Hogwarts?" she asked.
"Yes. I only want a cloak, full length and in leather preferably. I'm not a student either. I'm a new teacher." Yugi quickly corrected her.
"Oh," she said. "Not Defence Against the Dark Arts I hope?"
"No, why do you ask? It there something wrong with it?" Yugi asked confused.
"Thank gods, Hogwarts has been a horror for losing their Defence Against the Dark Arts teachers. They seem to be dropping out like flies. It's almost as if the job is cursed. The last two years it was a man who was possessed by some evil spirit. Then last year a man who somehow lost his memories at the end of the year, sent to St Mungo's, Spell Damage ward I do believe," she said.
Thinking this over, Yugi let his body respond as appropriate, but not really listening to the words.
"Alright dear, you're done," she said.
Pulling his thoughts from the mysterious teachers, he nodded and got off of the stool type thing, and sat down as Yami walked in the door. All of the other said items that were needed where in his hands.
"Hey Yami," Yugi greeted him.
Yami nodded in response and gave all the items to Yugi that he was carrying.
"Same as your brother?" the lady asked.
"Yes, but he's not my brother, we actually have not family relations that we know of, different background even," Yami said.
A little shocked, she got Yami up on a stool and started to piece together a cloak.
Finishing up quickly in silence. Yugi paid for the cloaks and they left.
Both now extremely tired and had more than enough excitement for one day quickly agreed on returning to Ryou's place.
-------------------------------------------(Time Break)-----------------------------------------
As they reached the front door to Ryou and Bakura's home, Yugi went to try and find the keys to the door, but stopped when Yami opened the unlocked door. Sighing, he quickly walked in and dropped the bags on the floor to the side where they couldn't be in the way. Yami followed suit and they both shook off their coats and hung them on the coat rack.
About to close the door, a bird flew in and landed on Yugi's arm, which was still outstretched from placing the coat on the rack.
"Horus, I knew that you would come back," Yugi said as he petted the bird's head gently.
Walking into the living room, with Horus still on his arm, Yami not to far behind, they spotted Ryou and Bakura curled up on the couch watching a movie. As they came into the room the two white haired boys looked up, and blinked a few times as he though he was seeing a bird sitting on Yugi's arm. After a few blinks they were both sure that they weren't just seeing things. There really was a bird on Yugi's arm.
"Hey Yugi, Yami. Yugi, when did you get a bird? What kind of bird is it?" Ryou asked.
"I got it today. We named him Horus, he's an Egyptian Falcon." Yugi responded.
Ryou nodded, Bakura turned back to the television, no longer interested.
"So what did you get up to in London?" Ryou inquired.
"Lots of things. I managed to get a teaching job, but you would never believe where if it was anyone else," Yugi said trying to ensnare Bakura's attention.
It seemed to work, since he picked up the remote and turned the television off.
Sitting on the other couch that occupied the room, Yugi got comfortable leaning on Yami.
Beginning their story, Yugi explained in great detail the events of the day to Ryou and Bakura.
"How would you rate their magic, in comparison to shadow magic?" Bakura asked slitting his eyes at the possibility of new magical competition.
"At best, perhaps about half as strong, but not much more than that unless they were special for some reason," Yami answered.
The slitted eyes returned to normal as a smile spread across his face, quickly forming into a smirk. Only to be destroyed by Yugi continuing for Yami.
"But the variety of spells they have is by far larger than Shadow Realm," Yugi said.
Bakura's smirk faulted and disappeared.
"Stupid wizards," he mumbled.
Something occurred to Ryou and his face faulted from the smile and turned into a slight frown.
"So you won't be staying here then will you?" Ryou inquired.
"Sorry Ryou, but no. Boarding school and all they are providing accommodation for us," Yugi told him.
"Thank god, no more pharaoh," Bakura muttered only to have Ryou hit his arm.
"That's alright, you can't help that you got a job at a boarding school. Anyway it's a good opportunity for you two to learn a different kind of magic," Ryou commented.
"You know that you are sending us spell books," Bakura inserted demandingly.
A smile formed on Yugi's lips, but Yami spoke before he could answer.
"Ah, but we couldn't be doing that now Tomb Robber," Yami dryly replied.
Slitted eyes focused on Yami as a scowl formed on Bakura's face.
"Yami's right actually," Yugi continued. " Anyway there would be no point to it when you can easily go up to London. Diagon Alley is not that hard to find. Even if you get lost you still have the Millennium Ring to lead you there. That way you don't need to wait to receive books, you can easily just have a look around and find what you want. I'm sure Bakura would like that better so that he can con you into buying a dark magic book full of spells that we would never in a million years send to you."
Ryou nodded, while Bakura was away in his own little world with the evil fairies killing things.
"Still wish you could have stayed," Ryou said wistfully.
"Hey, I'll try to come back during the holidays when I can, I'm sure that I can make it for Christmas Holidays in the least," Yugi said.
Ryou nodded satisfied.
"Whose turn is it to cook dinner tonight?" Bakura asked suddenly. "I'm starving, feed me!"
"Mine," Yugi said thoughtfully. 'What should I make for dinner?'
-------------------------------------------(Time Break)-----------------------------------------
The week leading up to Yugi and Yami's time to leave in everyone's opinion, amazingly including Bakura who had gotten used to having them around, went by far too quickly. Though Bakura would never admit it, he liked having the Pharaoh around to annoy if nothing else. Although Yami didn't find it as funny as Bakura did.
Sitting down at the dinning room table, Yugi laid down breakfast as took up his respective seat beside Yami who was yawning loudly. Ryou and Bakura choosing that moment to enter the room.
"You're leaving today aren't you?" Ryou mentioned sadly.
"Yes," Yugi answered not sure if he should be excited at the prospect of what was going to happen in a real school for magic, or sad at leaving his friends behind.
"Good riddance," Bakura mumbled clearly not meaning a single syllable.
Yami glared at Bakura for a moment not really too amused, but also half asleep so he picked up his fork and began eating.
Ryou shook his head at Bakura who took his seat and started to eat as well.
"Don't mind Bakura," Ryou said. "He's just a bit grumpy this morning."
Yugi nodded, Yami could occasionally get like that, and it wasn't fun to deal with, thankfully it didn't happen very often.
Swallowing a mouthful of egg, Yami spoke innocently, "What, didn't you get any last night Bakura?"
Bakura growled lowly at Yami as he returned to eating, then turned to Yugi who was watching a little intrigued.
"No! You two, couldn't you have had any decency and have been any louder. I swear that somewhere half-way around the world was the only place that didn't hear it!" Bakura exclaimed.
Turning away from Bakura, Yugi blushed lightly, momently abashed for being so loud.
