Zypher: Hi all! Thanks for reviwing the last chapter. Yes, I'm getting this our faster as I do with most new stories but with the flow of ideas, especially with the fact I finally found some sites that gave me the info I needed for this, I can get out these chapter for you. I still need to watch Goblet of Fire. I only remember tidbits from Sorcerer's Stone and Prisoner of Azkaban and I've seen Chamber of Secrets a few days ago. I will go search for it. Yugi!

Yugi: -walks in- Yes Zypher?

Zypher: Mind writing this chapter for me?

Yugi: Uh, shouldn't you be doing that?

Zypher: I know but I'm going on a movie hunt. I need someone to take over and I choose you.

Yugi: Why not pick someone else? I'm not good at telling stories much less writing them.

Zypher: Hey, it's either you or I could call Yami in here and he'll probably turn this entire chapter into a lemon which is tooooo soon.

Yugi: -pouts- Oh fine but don't blame me if it isn't good.

Zypher: I'm sure you'll do fine. Now I'm off. Oh, and I hope you all will enjoy this chapter. -runs of to her room and searches through On Demand while Yugi took her place at the computer-


Ode of Magic

Chapter 3


Yugi was now walking with Jou and Diamond to the DADA class. Yugi was a little unnerved in each of his classes. Every class he had so far was shared with either Yami or another student by the name of Aqua who knew Yami. He started to wonder if they set up their classes so they could have them with him since they focused their attention on him mostly. He talked to his friends about it when they met up in the hall and they only said it was a coincidence probably. Well, Diamond and Ryou said so, Jou and Malik said they could possibly be stalking him which made him worry.

'But I'm sure they wouldn't go so far as to stalk me. We only met today. I couldn't have caught their attention so much as to have them stalking me already.' he thought as they came up to the DADA classroom and they entered inside. Yugi gulped as he saw a free seat beside Yami once again along with another two seats beside Crimson and Seto.

Keara looked up and smiled. "Ah, glad you came. Go ahead and pick out a seat." she said and Yugi looked up to them. "I really don't want to sit next to Yami. I already do so in three of my classes as it is." Yugi said and Diamond pat his shoulder.

"Don't worry, I'll take the seat beside him if you take my seat. I have a feeling that Crimson wants something to do with me." Diamond said and he nodded as he went to sit next to the older male who growled slightly with the fact that Diamond dodged sitting next to him. "If I was you, I think about switching with your cute female friend if you value your life." he hissed before taking out a book titled Curses and Counter Curses by Prof. Vindictus Viridian. Yugi gulped slightly to himself before taking out his books and waited for Keara to start the class.

"Alright. As you know I'm Keara, the new DADA. Just Keara. No Prof. or Ms. for me." she said, looking to them all and pouted mentally as she saw Yugi sharing a different seat. 'I'll fix that problem later. He'll probably switch seats anyway with the way Crimson is glaring at him.' she thought.

"Anyways, today we'll go into a different lesson. I'm sure you all know about the different creatures that inhabit the magical world along with defensive spells other than our newest students. Am I correct?" she questioned and they nodded.

"Alright then, we'll go over those another time. Like I said, today we'll be starting a different lesson and that's about another type of magic from another realm called Norrath. We're going to learn about the Takish'Hiz magic and all forms of defensive magic. We will also be learning about other ancient dark creatures and no, we're not talking about werewolves and vampires." she said, looking over to a student that started to raise his hand to question about them knowing about dark creatures. "Then what kind of creatures are we talking about?" Draco asked haughtily.

"We're going to talk about demons and shapeshifters mainly." she said as she walked down the aisle between the two groups of desks off to the side. "Now, demons and shapeshifters can be very dangerous, as now said by the Ministry of Magic for they are classified in the fifth category." she started, looking to them as she headed back to the front of the class.

"Demons mainly, can look human but there will be traits that show their demon heritage such as a rare eye color or strength that can sometimes be unchecked. At any time, they can shift into full demon forms and with that can do anything they please such as kill, feed their demonic hunger or just for a good scare." she continued. "But remember, not all demons will consider to be friendly. Some can but many can't. And most can be impervious to any type of magic, especially curses. Demons can only be vulnerable to magic when they are in mortal form."

Jou raised and hand and she pointed to him. "Tell me, you said demons have a human form. Could they also have other forms?" he questioned and she nodded. "Yes, they could appear in many forms such as sphinxes, dragons and other humanoid animals. Not all demons have a human form." she answered and he nodded.

"Now, shape-shifters are almost like demons except for the fact that its hard to sometimes tame the animal that is your main one if you haven't learned to do so. Every shape-shifter can shift into any animal or creature as they please but just like demons, they will have some sort of trait that will relate to their human form such as a raven with white feathers or a tiger with different stripe patterns."

They nodded, writing down the notes. "So, how are these demons and shape-shifters created then?" Draco asked. "Pure blood demons are always born whether by two demon parents on one demon parent and one human or muggle parent. Pure blood can also make another demon from a human or muggle just by a switch of blood and an ancient incantation but this method is included when said demon wants a mate. As for shape-shifters, they can only be born from two shape-shifter parents and can create one of their own by sacred mating rituals." she explained and then looked over to Crabbe and Goyle who were snoring away in their seats.

She smirked as she took a large book and walked over to their desk, slamming it down on the surface and waking them up. "Seems we have two that wish to not pay attention. 5 points from Slytherin." she said before walking off. Draco growled in his seat and Ron laughed from his.

"I think I like this teacher." he said and Draco snorted. "Keep that attitude, Weasel, and you'll be causing your house to lose points." Draco said. Jou growled and was about to make a retort but decided against it.

"Now, I will issue out books about demons and shape-shifters tomorrow but for tonight for homework, I want you all to make a list of various animals and choose a select few that you would shift into if you were a shape-shifter. We'll be doing a small lab tomorrow with a potion so we'll be heading outside for this activity." Keara said as the bell for the next class rung and she dismissed them.

Yugi met up with friends, talking animatedly about their assignment. "Oh wow! I think she actually has a potion that will all turn us into temporary shape-shifters! That would be so cool!" Yugi said. "I know! I can't wait either! I think DADA will be one of my favorite classes this year!" Jou said as they continued on their way before splitting up for their other classes.


After eating lunch, Yugi went through the rest of his classes without many problem, still a little freaked that Yami or Aqua still shared all his classes and had a suspicious feeling that they were watching him. He made it to his last class for the day, heading outside and placing his bag beside his friends when he spotted them. Madam Hooch smiled to him before looking to the rest of the students. "Welcome all to my class for Flying. I noticed we have some students that I had in my class before. Glad to see you all again." she said, walking down the line of students.

"Now, beside you is your brooms. We will practice simple flight procedures and slowly move up from there. Those that are already experienced can help the newer students." she said. "Now, to raise your broom, all you need to do is say 'up'." she continued and the students did as she said, some succeeding on the first try while other had a few difficulties. Hermione, Harry and Ron, which Yugi was glad to have in the class with him, already had their brooms in hand, Ron getting whacked in the face with his like he did before during his first year.

Draco was talking quietly with Toben. "I say once we're in the air, we play a little trick with the Gryffindorks." Draco said. "Sounds good to me and I say we try it on that little Tindum kid." Toben said, looking over to him before turning his gaze to Topaz who was also in the class. "Alright then. When you have your broom in hand, slowly climb on and keep your feet on the ground until I tell you to hover." Madam Hooch said and the students climbed onto their brooms and she looked over them to make sure none didn't leave the ground.

"Now, to lift off the ground, tilt you broom up and once you are a few feet off the ground, keep it steady by keeping it straight." she said, bringing out her own broom and demonstrated for them. Once they were off the ground, she started demonstrating simple flight, not going any higher for the newer students and Draco looked over to Ryou, smirking lightly as he brought out his wand. "Rictusempra." he spoke, casting the spell onto Ryou.

Ryou felt something tickling him and he started to giggle softly, still keeping hold of his broom and following what Madam Hooch was telling them. He started to laugh softly, trying to follow her directions but the tickling feeling wouldn't stop and he started bursting out laughing, holding his sides but with that momentum, he fell off his broom.

Yugi looked to him and gasped. "Ryou!" he called and turned his broom, quickly making his way over to him. The other students turned to watch the spectacle and Bakura growled, looking over to Draco and Toben who were snickering.

Yami watched quietly, seeing what the young teen was going to do. Yugi finally made it to Ryou and grabbed his robe but due to the momentum, he fell off his own.

"Alright, that's it." Bakura snarled, taking out his own wand. "Wingardium Leviosa." he said, pointing to them and they stopped in mid air. Madam Hooch went over to them, freeing them from the spell before taking them and helping them back down to the ground.

"Yugi, thank you for helping him." she said, looking to him before turning back to Ryou who was still laughing. "The Rictusempra charm." she said with a sigh before taking out her own wand. "Finite Incantatem." she said and soon, Ryou stopped laughing and gasped for air a bit.

Bakura came down, jumping off his broom and ran over to them. "Ryou! Are you alright?" he asked and the boy nodded. Bakura glanced up to Draco and Toben who were trying to look innocent and he only gave them a look, planning to chew them out big time when they got to dinner.

Bakura helped Ryou up and Yami made his way down, standing beside Yugi. "Nice flightsmanship, Yugi. You know, you could be a good Chaser on the Gryffindor Quidditch team." he said before walking off, seeing Harry, Ron and Hermione running over to him. Yugi watched him go before turning to the others.

"Yugi! Man that was so cool!" Topaz said, hugging the younger. "Yeah, you was almost like Harry when he was in his first year. You'll probably score a good spot on the Quidditch team for that if Madam Hooch says so to the Gryffindor Quidditch captain." Ron said.

"Yeah but I don't know a thing about quidditch." Yugi said, looking to them. "I'll tell you a little about it during dinner but right now, we need to pry Bakura from your friend." Harry said, Ron already going to do the job. "Hey Rathor. Get your grimy paws off Ryou." Ron said and Bakura turned to look at him with near crimson eyes.

"What was that, Weasel? I think I can have every right to speak to him if I wish." Bakura said, glaring at him. "Oh yeah? Well mind you, you are a Slytherin. Most Slytherins hates Gryffindor and we all know you're trouble." he said, glaring right back. Bakura would've casted a spell onto him if Madam Hooch didn't intervene.

"Boys! Don't cause a scene!" Madam Hooch shouted, looking to them both. Bakura growled before letting go of Ryou. "Go ahead and get your broom, Ryou, and we can continue on with the lesson. You too, Yugi." she spoke, looking to them and they nodded as they went over to get their brooms from the spot they fallen to.

Bakura watched him go before climbing back onto his and flew up to where Draco and Toben still sat. "I should hurt you really bad right now but you're lucky we're still in class." Bakura hissed, his eyes returning back to their normal brown shade.

"Hey, we needed something to do." Draco said. "He could've gotten hurt!" he growled before snorting. "You're really lucky I consider you a friend and the fact your father's a Death Eater or you wouldn't be alive right now." Bakura said before they got back to their lesson.


Later that night after everyone ate dinner and headed to bed, a figure headed up to the tower where the owls resided, staying there for a little bit until an owl came in, holding an envelope. It perched onto his shoulder and he plucked the note from its beak. He looked it over and smirked before sending the owl off and left the tower, heading over to Hagrid's. He knocked and Hagrid soon came to the door. "What is it? You should be in bed." Hagrid said. "I know but the acceptance letter finally came." The cloaked figure said, giving him the note.

He looked it over before sighing lightly. "I can't believe you actually got the Ministry of Magic and The Department for the Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures to agree to do this but you better know what you are doing, Yami." Hagrid said. "Don't worry. Aqua and I didn't raise and care for pure-blooded demon dragons, who are much stronger than these dragons, for the fun of it." Yami said, removing his hood.

"Just see if you can get those dragon eggs and one of us will come by to take care of them when they hatch." he continued and he nodded before heading back inside, Yami placing the hood back over his head and headed back to the school.

Hagrid shook his head lightly. "All 10 breeds of dragons. They should know how dangerous this is going to be but pure-blood demon dragons are even more vicious than the Hungarian Horntail so I believe they won't have too much of a problem with taming them." he said quietly to himself.

"It will be just the problem of finding these eggs." he continued with a sigh and soon got to work, hoping that he'll be able to find the dragon eggs for the two demons, noting that he needed to show the letter to Dumbledore so they wouldn't be getting into any trouble with this.
