~Chapter 4~

the first secret blown

About three weeks into their schooling, Yugi and Atem had gotten the hang of being around those much younger than them, Yugi adjusted quite well, though Atem still had a hard time, as did Bakura in his first couple of weeks, the twin Kings of Games had decided to try to keep their relationship a secret, after all they were un sure about how the younger students would react to having a gay couple among them, though Harry had told them that most of the Gryffindors were very understanding, he had warned them that some of the other house's students wouldn't be.

It was around dinner time, as Yugi, Atem, Harry, Ron and Hermione made their way to the great hall for dinner, the twin kings tried very hard not to hold each other's hands, though they managed to keep their private moments to their room alone, they feared, well mainly Yugi did, that they would not be able to resist each other, after all they were used to being able to kiss and hold hands, anytime they wanted. Yugi made a slight sigh, which caused Atem to smile and reach for his hand, squeezing it lightly.

Yugi smiled and leaned on Atem as they walked, it was a bit noisy since all the classes were done for the day, the duel kings, entered the great hall and blinked, the students had become silent, Harry looked to them, and shrugged before they walked toward the Gryffindor table. Ron noticed how the teachers and the headmaster were watching the two students from Japan, Yugi looked to the teachers table and shuttered, Professor Umbridge was glaring daggers at him and Atem.

/honestly doesn't she have something better to do than stare?/ Yugi could tell Atem was frustrated by how snippy his mental voice sounded

/she's probably never seen a gay couple before, though I am sure the rest of the student body and teachers have/ Yugi replied calmly

/how do you figure?/

/simple, Ryou and Bakura were here a year before us, so the only conclusion is that the students would be more understanding as you can see, only the Slytherins and that Ra-Awful woman are glaring at us/

/good point, Aibou/

The duo then walked toward the Gryffindor table, stopping when Professor Umbridge stood and waddled (A.N.: and yes I mean literally) toward them, her beady black eyes bore into them before she spoke with that high-pitched voice of hers that would make even Tea go deaf

"hem-hem, may I politely ask, as to why you two are showing signs of intimacy if you are brothers?" she spoke with a tone of disgust that was very noticeable to everyone within the Great Hall

Atem was about to say something when Yugi spoke first

"Lady, I don't know who told you, we are related, because we're not, Atem and I... well.." he blushed a bit before earning a soft mental push from his lover

"Atem and I are lovers, Fiancees to be honest" he showed the ring on his left hand, the diamond in the shape of the Millennium puzzle

To say Professor Umbridge was shocked was an understatement, her face showed utter horror and she gasped loudly, she then turned harshly and glared at Dumbledore

"You mean to tell me, You Allowed these... these Freaks unto this school? where they can Corrupt the children?!" she wailed loudly

Professor Dumbledore merely shrugged, and the sat calmly back in his chair, before he spoke

"honestly Dolores you have nothing to fear, there was already one set of lovers here before the other two sets arrived, I merely added to our 'entourage' "

Yugi noticed that Dumbledore seemed awfully amused with Umbridge's display of her phobia, even the students, well all except for the Slytherins, seemed to not care that Yugi, Atem, Malik and Marik, were in fact lovers.

Professor Mcgonagoll then stood and walked down, she smiled warmly to Yugi and Atem before she stood by them.

"I for one do not care that they love each other, Love is a rare thing to come by in this day and age, so seeing these two wonderful gentlemen adore and cherish each other, gives me hope, that Love and Light shall prevail over the damning Darkness that is within our forseeable future" after hearing the professor's words, Atem gained a new found respect for the elder Headmistress.

Professor Umbridge growled though it was faint, before she stomped back up to the teacher's table "the Minister will hear of this!" she threatened, though it seemed her threat fell upon deaf ears, as everyone had gone back to eating dinner, with Yugi and Atem, joining the Gryffindors.

Marik and Malik both laughed as they walked with Yugi, Atem , Ryou and Bakura, afterwards, both blondes seemed to have enjoyed the moment, Yugi of course had a smile on his face, while Atem held a confident smirk on his face, he rolled his eyes as they passed by a couple of third year Slytherins, who after Bakura barked at them, caused the blondes to laugh once more. the four newest students all silently headed outside, going near the lake, Yugi looked out

"that was quite a spectacle you put on there, shorty" Marik commented as he rubbed Yugi's head in brotherly affection

"yeah, who would of thought, you of all people would tell someone of high authority off" Malik commented

Yugi rolled his eyes and looked back toward the lake, his blond bangs flicked over his face as the breeze caught them

"in all honesty, I just wanted her to shut up, she may be a big shot around here, but I only listen to two people, and one is my lover", Yugi spoke calmly, his eyes on the water within the lake.

Atem sat down beside him and leaned on his leg, the Pharaoh snorted slightly and sighed, he hated when people tried to bully Yugi around like he wasn't worth their time and effort, though he was glad Yugi grew a back-bone, and he was proud too.

"She believes that we are all younger than she is, what she doesn't realize is that Bakura and I hold a multitude of years on her, and we have much more knowledge than she does" he spoke with confidence which was due to him having been a king for so long.

"What I want to know is why is the Ministry of Magic in denial about Voldemort, returning?", Ryou asked as he stood by Bakura, the former thief shrugged his answer, but remained quiet none-the-less.

"that's a simple question, Mate" came Ron's voice as he, Harry and Hermione, approached "they just don't want to believe"

"then they are fools", Atem commented

"that they are, but what can we do? according to them we are children" Harry stated, " I've been through enough hell in these past five years than most Aurors see in their careers, at least that is what Moody told me"

"Moody? as in Mad-Eye Moody?", Bakura asked

Harry nodded and the former thief king shook his head "should have known that old coot would still be kicking"

Atem looked to Bakura, not sure what the other had meant, he was about to ask when Harry growled lowly in his throat, approaching their group, was Malfoy and his two cronies. Yugi blinked as he followed Harry's line of sight and then he sighed, turning to face the blond.

"Be lucky that you have the freak squad with you Potter, otherwise, there'd be trouble" Draco stated, Yugi's eyes narrowed before he raised his hand

A flash of light erupted around Draco, as Yugi's magic flared along with his temper, when the light faded, Draco stood in a girl's school uniform and was no longer a male, but a female, she screamed, which caused Malik, Marik, Bakura, Atem and Ron to bust up laughing, Yugi lowered his hand and then smirked

"I told you, Draco, the next time you pissed me off, you'd be a Woman, and now that is what you are, oh don't worry this will wear off when you learn your lesson"

Draco growled "my father will..", Yugi's magic rose up in a white flame around him "Your Father can do NOTHING to me!" he stated, as the flames grew higher and hotter, Atem backed up, as Marik looked to him, with worry in his eyes

"uh... did you know he could do this?", he asked, Atem nodded, he wasn't worried, as he knew Yugi had a strong hold on his wild Light magic

Harry looked to Atem then to Yugi, who's eyes were glowing, he then spoke

"um Yugi... you may want to calm down, please...don't draw attention..", Yugi's flames shimmered before he breathed and calmed down, he then sighed through his nose, before he glared at Draco, "either you walk away, or I will force you to leave" he stated, threateningly

Draco whimpered and ran off, followed by a frightened Crabbe and Goyle, Marik and Bakura both looked to Yugi, the former Thief King whistled

"Lords of Seven Hells... Pharaoh... when you told us it was possible...", Bakura shuttered

Atem got up and walked over to Yugi, placing a hand on his hikari's shoulder

"didn't I say Atem was the more powerful Yami?", Malik stated looking at the others "it is quite obvious that Yugi would be the more powerful Hikari"

Harry, Ron and Hermione looked at them "hikari? yami?", Atem shook his head "That is a Secret we can not trust to anyone... sorry, what we are... how we came to be... its a bit too complicated"

Though the evening had not gone as smooth as the friends had hoped, it seemed, Draco had gone to Snape, who had tried to reverse Yugi's magic, and when he found he could not he went to Dumbledore, who had summoned, Yugi, Atem, Malik, Marik, Bakura, Ryou, Harry, Ron and Hermione all to his office to explain what had happened, when the nine students entered they saw a crying Malfoy standing next to a growling Snape, Professor Dumbledore sat calmly behind his desk.

"come in, please and shut the door, we have something to discuss", he sounded calm and collected which worried Harry a bit

once the students were inside and the doors were shut, Dumbledore stood "it seems we have not learned all there is about you lot from Japan...will you please explain how Mr. Malfoy became Miss Malfoy?"

Ron held back a snicker as Yugi spoke, "Sir, from what I gathered, Malfoy has been bullying Harry since their first year, during the summer before we came here, he tried to bully Atem and I, I got angry and I threatened him, I told him if he didn't leave Harry and his friends alone, or my friends and I, then I would turn him into a girl, just a few moments ago, I followed through with that threat, now it's not permanent, he'll change back when he stops being a bully... and No I can't change him back... I used Ancient magic...too old for you to understand" he finished while answering, Snape's silent demand

Professor Dumbledore looked to Malfoy "is it true that you have been bullying Harry and his friends for the past five years?"

Malfoy looked as if she wanted to lie but once glance to Yugi and she sighed "yes, I didn't like how Potter became so famous so quickly, and I am gravely jealous of him"

Dumbledore shook his head "then this matter is out of our hands, Severus there will be no punishment, for Yugi served a Divine justice, now will you please escort Miss Malfoy back to the Slytherin common room? I wish to speak to the other students"

Snape glared but then took Malfoy out of the office, when the door shut, Dumbledore sat down "Yugi, I wish to ask a favor of you.."

Yugi nodded "I won't preform any more magic, I know that was reckless of me"

Dumbledore smiled "that goes for the rest of you from Japan, unless it is crucial, please refrain from using your magic, we are very lucky that Professor Umbridge did not see what transpired..though I believe by tomorrow, she will know about it"

Atem then spoke "about her... Professor.. who is she, exactly?"

Dumbledore leaned back in his chair "Dolores Umbridge, an official that is with the Ministry of Magic, she works directly under Corneilus Fudge, the Minister"

Ryou shuttered "I've met him, he freaks me out", Harry nodded in agreement with the soft-spoken youth.

"Yugi, I know you and Atem have reasons to hide what you truly are, so unless the time comes that you must explain everything, please refrain from doing so"

the two lovers nodded, then they blinked as Fawkes flew off his perch and sat on Atem's shoulder, the Phoenix nuzzled Atem's hair, cooing softly

"how strange, it seems Fawkes has taken a liking to you, Mr. Sennen", Atem smiled and stroked the Phoenix "he is a gorgeous bird"

After their conversation with the Headmaster, Atem and Yugi walked to the Gryffindor Common Room then to their room, once inside, they shut the door and Yugi laid on the bed

"what's odd is that I don't feel bad for doing what I did to Malfoy", he stated looking at Atem

"that was quite a bit of magic you used, I am surprised you are not tired.." Atem stated as he took off his robe

"you're not mad at me?", Yugi asked

"no, should I be?" Atem replied as he sat down beside his lover "you did what you did because you were angry, and I understand that"

Yugi nuzzled Atem, and wrapped his arms around him "thank you for understanding"

Atem nuzzled him back before they laid on the bed together, too tired to go to dinner, so they both curled up and fell asleep, snuggled into each other.
