Hi. I'm back with another chapter. I hope you enjoy it. Disclaimer someone.

RYOU: Hikari doesn't own Yugioh or Harry Potter. IF she did we'd all be in trouble.

Thank you Ryou. Enjoy the fic.

The next day the groups got up and got ready for their classes. They went to breakfast and looked at their schedules. Malik groaned. "No. We have Shadi first. Why do the gods hate me?"

"I don't know kitten. They seem to hate me too," Marik said. "We'd better go so we're not late." They got up and followed Harry and Ron to the DADA classroom. Several students were waiting outside including Malfoy. He walked up to the new group.

"Potter, Weasel," he said.

"What do you want Malfoy?" Harry asked.

"I want to know why you're hanging out with the freak parade. I mean really, isn't it below you to hang with people who don't know what they're doing?"

"We know what we're doing Malfoy," Bakura hissed holding Ryou close. "You don't know what you're doing messing with us. Malfoy stuck his hand in his pocket and drew his wand. Suddenly they heard a voice.

"Now I understand Slytherins and Gryffindors are rivals. However that does not mean you may fight in front of my class," said Shadi. Everyone turned to see him. Shadi was in his traditional white robes and white turban. The original Hogwarts students were surprised that a professor was breaking the dress code. "Come. Class starts momentarily." He walked into the classroom. Malik and Marik immediately headed to the back of the room. Bakura and Ryou followed them. Yugi, Yami, Harry, and Ron sat near the front. Yugi looked back and saw Marik mouth 'Traitor'. Yugi rolled his eyes and faced front. He was not a traitor. When everyone was seated Shadi began the lesson. "Now, I know you have been taught modern magic. I, however will be teaching you about ancient magic. First, let me start with a story. A long time ago there lived a great and powerful pharaoh as well as a great and powerful tomb robber. The pharaoh was young, about eleven, when he was forced to take the throne. Little did he know that his father's top priest had ordered the destruction of a village of thieves. Only one person survived the massacre. It was the tomb robber, only eight years old when the destruction occurred. The pharaoh had just been born at this time. The reason the village was destroyed was to make the Sennen Items, a series of seven golden items, which required the sacrifice of ninety-nine lives. The bodies were melted with gold and the Sennen Items were created. The pharaoh's father was given the Puzzle, the most powerful item, and six priests got the others. The Ring, Rod, Eye, Scales, Tauk, and Ankh. Each Item had its own power. The Ring could be used as a compass and seal souls in inanimate objects. The Rod could control minds. The Eye could read minds. The Scales judged a person's soul, the Tauk gave visions of past and future, and the Ankh could unlock a person's soul room. Also the Puzzle, Ring, Rod, and Eye could summon a place known as the Shadow Realm." Harry raised his hand. "Yes? Your name please?"

"Harry Potter professor," Harry said. "What could the Puzzle do?"

"No one knows for sure aside from the fact that it could summon the Shadow Realm. Now when the pharaoh was seventeen the tomb robber snuck into the palace and stole the Sennen Items to resurrect Zork the dark one. He succeeded in stealing all seven and resurrected Zork. The dark one nearly destroyed Khemet, or ancient Egypt as it's known today, with the help of the tomb robber. Luckily the pharaoh was able to stop Zork by sealing half of his soul in the Puzzle. He also sealed half of the tomb robber's soul in the Ring. The pharaoh sealed the dark halves of his and the tomb robber's souls in the Items. The light halves went on to be reincarnated. There are rumors among the tomb keeping clans that the reincarnates have appeared and the pharaoh and tomb robber are with us once again." Harry raised his hand again. "Yes Harry?"

"What do the pharaoh and tomb robber look like?"

"Well, take a look at some of your classmates. Two of them are reincarnates and two are the ancient spirits I speak of. You make your guesses and tell me who it is next class period." The bell rang. "See you on Friday." Everyone got up chatting about the story. Harry and the gang went down to Care of Magical Creatures, as did most of the rest of the class. When they got down to the field Harry groaned.

"What is it Harry?" Ryou asked.

"I'm not to sure I want to know what we're working with," Harry replied.

"Why not? I'm sure it's perfectly safe."

"And that's where you could be wrong," Ron said. "Hagrid loves to work with dangerous creatures. He had a baby dragon once and it bit me."

"Dragons would be cool to work with," Malik said thoughtfully. "If you train it right you could set it on Malfoy. That would be fun." He smirked evilly. Seconds later Marik and Bakura adopted similar smirks. Harry and Ron suddenly felt very worried. About a minute later Hagrid came out of his house and started the lesson.

"Good mornin' class. Today we're goin' to be working with winged cobras. They're harmless unless yeh get them mad. They have fangs but no venom sacs so yer safe. Choose a box an' open it." Several students hesitated but Yami, Bakura, and Marik walked up to three separate boxes and picked them up. They carried the boxes to their lights and set them down. They opened the boxes and three winged cobras fluttered out. Yami and Yugi had gotten a blue one, Bakura and Ryou had gotten a white one, and Malik and Marik had gotten a red one. Harry and Ron went next. They got an emerald green one. Then, slowly, the rest of the class broke into pairs and chose boxes.

"What are you going to name yours pharaoh?" Marik asked.

"I don't know. What are you going to name yours?" Yami replied.

"Wadjet."

"Well then we'll call ours Pharaoh. What about you Ryou?"

"Touzoukuou. After Bakura," Ryou answered. They worked with their cobras for a while. Suddenly they heard screaming. Everyone turned to see that Malfoy's black snake had a very good grip on his hand.

"Ra that is the funniest thing I've seen since someone dyed Yami's hair pink!" Malik said laughing.

"That wasn't funny. But this is," Yami said smirking. Every Gryffindor cracked up into laughter. Soon Malfoy got the snake off his hand and muttered curses at it. It hissed and leapt for him again. He dodged but the snake powered its wings and flew back toward him. He screamed and ran around until Hagrid grabbed the snake and put it back in its box. By this time the Gryffindors had gotten back to work, feeding and walking their snakes. Of course the snakes couldn't walk so some of them slithered and some flew next to their owners. Pharaoh got along really well with Wadjet and Touzoukuou, which was surprising considering only half their owners got along well. When the bell rang everyone packed up their snakes and went to their next class. For Harry and the others that meant Potions. Potions went considerably well considering what had happened in previous years. Professor Snape decided to bug the transfers instead of Harry for once. Malik got points taken off for back talking several times. Marik got points taken off for threatening a teacher. When the bell rang the first ones out of the dungeons were Malik and Marik. Then they went to lunch.

I can't believe that sleezeball," Malik said after he sat down. "Taking off points for Marik's hair. That's ridiculous."

"He'll do that all year long. Don't worry, he'll start bugging me soon enough and lay off on you," Harry said. After lunch they went to History of Magic where everyone promptly fell asleep. When the bell rang everyone raced out of class and went outside. Harry and Ron sat next to the lake. Yugi sat in Yami's lap, Ryou in Bakura's and Malik in Marik's. They sat in silence for a while until Ryou looked up.

"Hey! Isn't that Avernus?" he asked. Everyone else looked up as well.

"Yeah it is. He must have Tenshi's letter," Bakura said. Avernus flew down, landed next to Bakura, and held out a leg. Bakura took the letter and Avernus flew off. He opened the letter, which was written on a piece of lined paper and written with a pen.

Dear Bakura. It's nice to know you're getting out of the country. I wish I could've gone with you. Did Yami tell you that he skipped out on a test for Algebra 2? Or did I tell you that? Oh well. You'll find out anyway in that sneaky way of yours. On the back of this letter are the lyrics for the next song I was going to teach Ryou before you left. It's called Imaginary. It's my cousin's favorite. Ryou already knows Tourniquet, which is my favorite. Have him sing it sometime. Hope to see you as soon as you get out of school. Tenshi.

"What does it say Bakura?" Bakura handed him the letter. Ryou read it silently and turned it over. He read the song. "This is a good one."

"Sing it then."

"I don't know the tune. I can sing Tourniquet though."

"Ooh I love that one. Sing that one Ryou," Malik said.

"Okay." Ryou took a breath. "I tried to kill the pain, but only brought more. I lay dying and I'm pouring crimson regret and betrayal. I'm dying praying bleeding and screaming. Am I too lost to be saved, am I too lost? My god my tourniquet, return to me salvation. My god my tourniquet, return to me salvation. Do you remember me, lost for so long? Will you be on the other side or will you forget me? I'm dying praying bleeding and screaming. Am I too lost to be saved, am I too lost? My god my tourniquet, return to me salvation. My god my tourniquet, return to me salvation. My god my tourniquet, return to me salvation. My god my tourniquet, return to me salvation. My wounds cry for the grave, my soul cries for deliverance. Will I be denied, Christ, tourniquet, my suicide." As Ryou finished several people behind them applauded. The group turned around and nearly gasped. There stood Dumbledore with McGonagall, Hagrid, and several other teachers. Ryou blushed a bright red as Dumbledore walked up to him

"You sang that very well Ryou," Dumbledore said. "Where did you learn?"

"Bakura's friend Tenshi taught me. She has the CD."

Dumbledore chuckled. "She taught you well." He left along with the other teachers. Ryou's blush faded and the boys got up and went to dinner. Then they went to bed.

For the next few weeks Harry and the gang went to classes, did homework, and relaxed outside. Then on October thirty-first came the first Hogsmeade trip of the year. The transfers had heard about it and were excited to go. Luckily their guardians had signed the necessary forms for them to go. They got in line with the rest of the school that was going. Mr. Filch checked each of them and they raced out to the carriages. Malik, Marik, Bakura and Ryou got into one while Yami, Yugi, Harry, and Ron got into another. Soon all the students were in the carriages and they started off. When they got to Hogsmeade they got out and gathered. "So where to first?" Harry asked.

"Zonkos. They have the best gags and stuff," Ron said.

"Alright. Zonkos it is." Harry and Ron led Yami and the others to a joke store. Bakura, Malik, and Marik immediately went for the more dangerous jokes and gags. Ryou, Yugi, and Yami looked at the safer ones such as Dungbombs. They walked around the store for a while and left in groups. Harry, Ron, Yugi, Yami, and Ryou left first without buying anything. Soon Bakura, Malik and Marik came out arms loaded with gags.

"Oh no. Bakura, you didn't spend all of your money did you?" Ryou asked nervously.

"Of course not," Bakura said. "I still have some left over. Malik and Marik pitched in too you know."

"Great. Just great. Now we all have to watch out."

"Not everyone. Just that Malfoy kid needs to watch out. I'm sick and tired of him bugging us."

"But he hasn't bothered us in weeks. Just in classes."

"I don't care. He's going to get what's coming to him. And that will be the prank of a lifetime. We're planning one for tonight. It's going to be a gut buster for us at least."

Ryou sighed. "As long as you don't hurt him. Too much at least."

"That I can promise."

"Good. I don't want to be expelled because of a gag gone wrong."

"We won't get caught. We plan to set off some of these Dungbombs in Snape's room."

"His classroom?"

"Heck no. His bedroom. That makes the gag even better."

"Okay I suppose. Just don't get caught."

"We won't Ryou. I'm the king of thieves remember. Oh shit. I did NOT just say that."

"You're the thief king the picture was talking about," Harry said suddenly. "Aren't you. Which means that either Yami or Marik is the pharaoh."

"Thanks a lot tomb robber," Yami said. "Now they have half the puzzle figured out."

"Frankly," Bakura said, "I'm surprised they didn't figure it out sooner."

"Huh?"

"You heard me pharaoh."

"Great. Just great. Now they know the answer to Shadi's question. I was hoping no one would know. Now Shadi is going to tell what he knows of our past. I don't want that." Bakura growled.

"If he even thinks of telling my past, I'm drawing a dagger and putting it to his throat, professor or not."

"He won't be fazed by that Bakura," Yugi said. "You know nothing fazes Shadi."

Bakura sighed. "True. I wish I could at least scare the shit out of the guy."

"You will eventually," Ryou said. "When he lets his guard down you can scare him."

"But he never lets down his guard."

"He has to sometime. Come on, let's go somewhere else."

"Okay. Where should we go?"

"How about the Three Broomsticks? They have great butterbeers there," Harry said.

"I don't… did you say beer? I'm there!"

"It's butterbeer and its really good. Especially hot."

"Do you have any real liquor?"

"Well, there's firewhiskey but I don't think they serve that to students."

"Damn. I was hoping for a real drink."

"Not here Bakura. When we get back home I'll give you a few whiskeys," Ryou said.

"Will you remember that little Ryou?"

"Of course I'll remember." Harry led the exchange students to the Three Broomsticks and bought everyone a butterbeer. Bakura took one sip and sighed.

"This does taste kind of like beer. It's pretty good."

"Thanks for the compliment young man," said Madam Rosemerta. She walked off to serve other customers.

Yugi, Ryou, Malik, and Marik snorted. "He's not young. He's old," Marik said. "Well, compared to me at least."

"What do you mean?" Harry asked. "You're a spirit too aren't you?"

"Nope. I was created out of rage and hatred."

"What?"

"I said I was created. Kitten here created me when he was ten so when he was eleven I was one. When he was twelve I was two. So on so forth."

"So you're a manifestation?"

"Sort of. Manifestation means appearance and I suppose I did appear so I suppose I could be a manifestation."

"I see. And how old are you now?"

"Eight. Kitten is eighteen." They finished their butterbeers and left. Harry and Ron took Yugi and the others to the Shrieking Shack and told the story behind it. The true story about a man named Lupin who was a werewolf and was one of Dumbledore's most trusted friends. After the Shrieking Shack they went to Honeydukes and bought a large amount of candy including blood pops for Marik and Bakura. After this they went back to the castle.

Well, did you like it? Did you hate it? Does it go too fast or too slow? Please let me know. (Hey, that rhymed.)

RYOU: Send us flames too if you want. They're always good for a laugh.

What he said. I forgot to mention this earlier. This story is dedicated to Kanashimi no Tenshi for just being a great authoress and for bearing with my annoying reviews. Here's to you girl.
