Niko Mane: Hi, I wanted to tell all you readers that there might be pairings like Harry/Cho and Ron/Hermione, and one relationship between a new character and a YGO person. Anywey, on with the chapter! (PS: Bakura is not gay)

The Animal Lover

Early next morning they came down to breakfast like slugs. Especially Yugi. After all, he's not a morning person.

"Hey." Everyone greeted. Well, everyone except Seto. Mokuba had dragged him downstairs and he appeared to still be asleep.

"Big brother! Come on! Wake up!" said Mokuba, shaking him.

"Mmmmpphh." Groaned Seto. Yugi poured some water on his head. "Mmmmpphh." Seto moaned again. Yugi poured the entire jug of water on his head. "Mmmmpphh." Seto groaned yet again. Ryou thought for a moment and then grinned evilly.

"Kaiba-boy!" he said in a voice that sounded just like Pegasus's.

"AAAARRRGGG!" yelled Seto, jumping up and looking around franticly. "Where… Pegasus…" he gasped. Everyone except Marik, Ron, Harry, and Hermione started laughing their heads of.

"That was priceless!" laughed Ryou, wiping tears out of his eyes. Seto gave him a death glare. "Eeep! My Yami made me do it!"

"Did not!" said Y. Bakura appearing with the other Yamis.

"AHH!" yelled Harry, Ron, and Hermione.

"Sorry." Said Yami.

"Its ok." They said, still shaken.

"Why do we have to get up so early anyway?" whined Y. Bakura.

"Because we have to shop, stupid." Said Y. Marik.

"Are you looking for a fight?"

"Bring it on Tomb Robber! You couldn't tear tissue paper!"

"Bite me!"

"Don't tempt me!"

They soon were fighting with each other wildly.

"Do they always fight this much?" asked Hermione.

"Yep." Sighed Marik.

"Well, I suppose we should go and get our supplies before the train leaves." Said Yugi. They all agreed and Ryou and Marik pulled their Yamis away from each other. First they went to Madam Malkin's Robes For All Occasions. To, well, get robes.

"Hogwarts?" asked Madam Malkin kindly. They all nodded and got their robes (If you want details, see the 1st book, its just like that, except no Malfoy).

"Where next?" asked Mokuba.

"Lets go to the Apothecary." Suggested Ron. They nodded and headed inside. The sight of all the gnarled claws and canned parts of assorted animals made most of them nervous. Marik instantly ran over to the purple-horned toad skin that hung from a rack. They bought their sets of potion ingredients and looked at the strange things on the wall, in barrels on the floor, on shelves, and even things hanging from the ceiling. Suddenly they heard a number of sounds.

Crash

"Arrg!" (a mans voice)

Smash

"Run! Run! Run for your lives!" (a girl's voice)

"Get back here!" (the man's voice again)

ribbit

Suddenly, about 30 frogs came hopping out from the back and out the door. They recognized them from the skin hanging on the racks. They were purple-horned toads. A girl ran out also, and bolted out the door. She had long golden blonde hair and eyes that looked turquoise, half green and half blue. A employee of the Apothecary came running out after her.

"Get back here!" he yelled. The gang went out to follow the girl and to find out what was going on. People in the street were screaming as the toads spread out all over the place. They saw the girl run into a small ally that the employee ran right past (pretty stupid, huh?). They walked into the ally and found her hiding in the corner.

"Yikes!" she gasped when she saw them.

"Who are you and what just happened?" asked Hermione.

"My name is Emily Doge. I released those poor purple-horned toads so they wouldn't be slaughtered for potion ingredients." She explained.

"But isn't that against the law?" said Harry. "You could get in serious trouble!"

"Those animal's lives are more important then that!" said Emily.

"More important?" smirked Seto. "They're just animals."

"JUST ANIMALS! They're exactly the same as you! They feel pain and have feelings!" Emily yelled.

"Don't tell me you're one of those animal lovers."

"THERE'S NOTHING WRONG WITH THAT!"

"If you keep yelling like that shopkeeper is going to find you here." Said Seto.

"I don't care! At least those toads are safe!" said Emily.

"Animals are just lower life forms and that's all." He retorted.

"Seto…" Mokuba warned.

"We should get out of here before that guy comes back." Suggested Ryou.

"Yes, lets." Said Yugi. Suddenly a paper flew into Marik's face. He grabbed it and saw that it was very old looking and was obviously ripped out of a book accidentally.

"Hey! What's this?" asked Marik. Yugi took it. It had a strange language written on it.

"I think its ancient Egyptian." said Yugi, squinting at it. It was faded. Marik took it again and began to read.

"Once ins-e, the process of unlocking the doors can begin. Be warned if you are to try this, for the

's - is racked with traps. The doors you seek will be l-d. Use the spell akaruku ah me to break into them. You will not have much time to access the mem-" he read. "That's all. Some of the words were so faded that I couldn't read them."

"Wait a second, how do you know Egyptian?" said Emily suspiciously.

"Er… I learned it from my, er, family." He stuttered. She didn't look convinced.

"Hey, what are your names anyway?" asked Emily.

"Seto Kaiba."

"Mokuba Kaiba"

"Yugi Motou."

"Marik Ishtar."

"Ryou Bakura."

"Harry Potter."

"Hermione Granger."

"Ron Weasley." They reeled of. Emily looked more and more astounded after each name. Her mouth was hanging open.

"I remember! You guys are the ones from Japan! The ones the Order was talking about, who had two people living inside them!" she gasped.

"How do you know about the Order!" they all said.

"My grandfather is Elphias Doge. He works at the Order." She said. (He's on the bottom of page 49 in the fifth book)

"I remember him." Said Harry.

"Gosh, what a coincidence that we should meet! Well, I suspected we'd meet at Hogwarts but-" Emily was interrupted by a low growling sound as something darted out from behind them and glared at them from the shade with shining eyes.

Niko Mane: Hi everybody! I have a little competition for you. Whoever reviews and guesses what this creature is wins! (I'll give you a clue: its in the 4th book.) See ya!
