Technically this is Harry's 4th year/summer

Chapter 1

Atem was finally adjusting to Isis, Rishid, and Marik being his adopted family but it was taking time to trust them. He supposed it was good they would be alone for the school year to get more comfortable with one another. They grew closer throughout the year and started to become a true family. Rishid had surprisingly, or maybe not so surprisingly, developed shadow magick and was training alongside Marik and Atem which made the boys happy that their older "brother" had as much rigorous magical training as them.

Atem learned a lot about the modern world throughout the school year. They also focused heavily on the ways of the Medjai and the laws they lived by. Kaphiri was teaching him modern weaponry, ancient weaponry, and various fighting methods. Thankfully he retained what he learned of the modern world when he was a spirit stuck in Yugi or everything would have been more difficult. He was glad he didn't have to worry about the new shadow mages popping up around the world seeing as Shadi was temporarily taking care of it and would until he was finished training and was ready to actually take the throne again officially.

Junior year was finally over and the mages were heading back to Egypt to train more and see Atem. A few days into the mages summer vacation, Atem and Yugi got a call from Pegasus offering them a partnership with Industrial Illusions. Yugi agreed to it once he graduated from high school while Atem decided he would just help out if he was needed since he seemed to have quite a few responsibilities already.

Atem did take advantage of their new standing with Industrial Illusions and asked for a team of Egyptologists to help him find the stone tablets that the souls of Mana, Kisara, and Mahad were trapped in. Pegasus readily agreed to the request and said he would send the team to meet them in Cairo in a few days. They went to Thebes where the palace Atem would have lived in was and started searching from there. They managed to excavate both Dark Magician Girl and The Blue Eyes White Dragon within a few weeks. His memories were coming back but they still were not complete. Atem was getting frustrated in not being able to remember where Mahad's tablet could be.

Atem stood before the two tablets as Shadi talked him through how to release the souls of the two girls. Atem used his puzzle to free the souls but instead of going to the afterlife the two souls pulsed brightly in front of everyone.

"What is happening," Seto asked confused since he had been hoping his beloved could finally be truly free and rest in peace.

Suddenly Shadi spoke again after realizing what was happening, "My Pharaoh I think I can explain what is happening here but I think you should just watch."

Shadi was smiling slightly at the gift the Gods were granting their favorite children. Though, he was surprised at such blatant interference on their part. The Gods generally didn't interfere too much with the mortal world due to the infringement of free will but he supposed this was not technically infringing on free will.

Slowly the two pulsing lights began to grow and take shape. They transformed into what the girls looked like and slowly began to solidify until they looked fully human. The girls stood there in shock for a few brief moments as their memories were replaying before them and then realizing they were free and alive. Mana looked up and saw her love standing there completely stunned at this turn of events.

"Atem!" she screamed as she dove at him and hugged him fiercely. Then blushing and remembering some decorum she bowed. "Forgive me my Pharaoh I was overwhelmed with joy." Mana said slightly embarrassed at her rash behavior.

"Please don't be so formal. You were and are my love and best friend." Atem said to the beautiful girl before him.

Kisara was also coming out of her daze. She saw Seto and Akefia standing there looking at her in awe and shock. She took a step and spoke to them. "Can this be? Seto! Brother?"

"Kisara" Seto said completely choked up at seeing the love of his life once again among the living.

Kisara immediately embraced her love and her brother. She then looked over to her Pharaoh. "Thank you for freeing my soul Pharaoh," as she bowed her head in respect. Atem nodded smiling, happy to see everyone reunited at last.

Isis allowed for a two-week vacation in Cairo so they could create paperwork for Mana and Kisara. It also gave Isis an opportunity to catch up on some paperwork for the museum. Kaphiri had no children and offered to take both girls in so they would be joining the Nkosi clan.

For their mini-vacation the teens were stuck with a few Medjai guardians that had been brought along for their protection. Kaphiri and his three clansmen followed the teens everywhere. While Atem truly respected and cared for his mentor/trainer the lack of privacy was getting old. He actually felt like he had more freedom in the palace where he was surrounded by Medjai.

Sometime during the second week of their mini-vacation Kisara, Mana, Seto, and Atem escaped the watchful eyes of the Medjai and were enjoying some alone time in Al-Azhar Park. The others, while not one hundred percent on board with this bright idea, still went along with it and were blatantly distracting the Medjai for them. While Isis was distracted by some work at the museum and Rishid was finalizing documentation for the girls.

Unfortunately the Dark Lord had sent a few of his followers to Egypt in search of anything that might give them an edge in the war against Dumbledore and his merry band of fools. Peter Pettigrew, Amycus and Alecto Carrow, Thorfinn Rowle, and Augustus Rookwood were stuck in Cairo looking through ancient tomes in both the muggle and magical areas of Egypt. Peter, Thorfinn, Amycus, and Alecto were getting quite bored reading ancient scrolls so they ditched Augustus in lieu of a few drinks. They hid themselves away in a remote area at the famous park Al-Azhar and drank themselves stupid.

Unfortunately the drunken death eaters while wandering around making fools of themselves happened by Seto, Atem and the girls who were just relaxing under a tree after a nice picnic. The death eaters decided that it would be a great idea to harass the muggles they just came across.

Seto and Atem stood up warily not sure what to think of the arrival of these strange looking people in miss matched muggle clothing.

"Well, well what do we have here? Why don't you ladies come with us and we can show you a much better time than these blokes." Rowle said while leering at the two girls. Peter and the others just laughed at their associate.

Atem and Seto immediately turned aggressive. "I suggest you move along or I am afraid you will regret it." Atem growled out imperiously.

"Now why would we want to do that?" Amycus responded pulling out his wand threateningly.

Atem and Seto stared at the strangers oddly but both readied themselves to attack just in case these nut-jobs actually attacked. "You really don't know who you are messing with." Seto growled out.

The Death Eaters just smirked at the audacity and shot out some random curses at their muggle victims hoping for some muggle torture.

Atem immediately put up a wall of shadows which absorbed the spells and dissipated. Then he and Seto bombarded the four strange magic users with shadow bolts.

None of the Death Eaters expected magical retaliation since they were in a very muggle part of Cairo which in their drunken state just angered them more. Alecto getting annoyed shot out the killing curse but the teens in front of them dodged it. She hissed angrily at her missing her target.

Seto and Atem kept themselves in front of Mana and Kisara at all times. The girls had only been "alive" for a week and half and were not ready to cast shadow spells in battle. Realizing the danger they stepped it up a bit magically. They didn't call any monsters or the shadow realm. Outside of a duel neither one had ever called upon them with the exception of the battle against the great leviathan and Atem's memory world.

"Who are you?" Alecto asked after dodging an attack from the spiky haired teen.

Atem smirked. "Someone you do not want as an enemy." These drunken magic users would regret angering the Pharaoh. Both Seto and Atem produced shadow bolts in the palms of their hands and readied themselves for another attack.

"I suggest you leave us before I take more forceful measures." Atem threatened the four wizards.

"Not gonna happen." Amycus replied as the four Death Eaters bombarded the four mages again.

One of the spells flew by and almost hit Mana. Atem looked over and saw red. He was through playing nice. "That is enough!" Atem yelled angrily.

He concentrated his magick and created a purple flame in the palm of his hand. He cast the soulfire spell on Amycus who immediately screamed in agony as his soul was burned out of his body and taken to the Shadow Realm. The other three froze immediately when they saw the mysterious teen had another one of those purple flames in his hands. Seto took advantage of their momentary shock and threw another soulfire spell at Rowle. He also screamed in pain and dropped to the ground soulless. The other two not understanding what had happened immediately grabbed the others and apparated away.

"Who in Ra's name were those people?" Atem exclaimed angrily.

"I don't know but we need to find out. Magic users with wands? I didn't realize there were any magic users outside of different types of mages and shamans in existence today." Seto replied unsure himself.

"We should probably speak with Isis." Kisara suggested as she stepped closer to Seto in need of some reassurance.

"Oh, we are in so much trouble with her when we get back." Mana pointed out cringing inwardly.

They slowly left the park and headed for the house Isis had in Cairo. They were not looking forward to the upcoming conversation. When they arrived they faced a pissed off Isis and Kaphiri.

"Where have you been?" Isis demanded immediately.

"The park. I apologize for worrying you Isis. We just wanted some time to ourselves." Atem said flinching slightly at his guardian's anger.

"What were you all thinking? You cannot just go running off on your own. It is not safe out there." Kaphiri lectured as the others in the house shifted guiltily for going along with the plan but stayed silent hoping to not get yelled at.

"Did anything happen while you were out?" Isis asked studying the guilty looks showing from the girls while giving the boys the evil eye.

"Well…" Mana began slowly.

"We did have a bit of a run in with a few drunken magic users. They attacked us but we are fine." Kisara assured slumping at the glare she got.

"Is everyone alright?" Kaphiri asked with worry re-examining his charges more closely.

"We are fine." Seto assured stiffly not used to getting yelled at by adults.

"Well be that as it may, there will be no more escapades without your Medjai guardians, right Atem." Isis stated crisply in full guardian mode hiding her worry for the Pharaoh under annoyance at his bids for freedom.

Atem sighed in resignation. He had almost forgotten how protective his priests could be. "I am sorry. It will not happen again while we are here, Isis." He acquiesced for the time being feeling like a kid in trouble with his mother which technically was reality since Isis was his guardian.

"Now tell me about these magic users you ran into." Isis stated wondering idly if it was time to introduce them to neo-magicals.

They told Isis about the four magic users and what they did. She frowned while listening to their story. She doubted the wizards the boys ran into were actually Egyptian based on what they told her but she needed to tell her charges about modern magics.

"I guess it's time to give everyone a brief lesson on modern magic wielders in the world today." Isis started as everyone took a seat in her living room realizing this was most likely going to be a long lesson.

"As you know there are a few different magical branches hidden throughout the world. However there is one that has rather large numbers compared to mages, druids, shamans and the others. Neo-Magic users or as they call themselves simply witches and wizards are simply spellcasters born with innate magical powers. They are very different from other magical branches because they can only use the power in them and to use that power they have to vocalize their spells and use wands as a focus most of the time. They are unable to pull raw arcane power from leylines and nodes to boost their powers and spells like mages. They also cannot use natural magick like druids, or elemental and spiritual magick like shamans. Since their magic is so intent and control based it is generally considered a weaker magic compared to the other branches however it has its uses due to its variety of spells and uses in their everyday lives. Anyone capable of spellcasting can learn this type of magic if they so choose."

"How did we not run into or know about these people until now?" Ryou asked curiously.

"They have hidden themselves away quite well in small enclaves all over the world since 1692 due to the Salem Witch Trials and other tensions that had been building up for years between wizards and non-magicals. They govern themselves separately from the non-magical inhabitants of the world. People with no magical background grew to be extremely fearful and dangerous for magic users. The Wizarding world has been hidden for so long people really don't believe that magic really exists or that it ever did exist with the exception of Egypt's inhabitants and a few other cultures that are as ancient as we are. Magical or not they have not given up their roots and belief systems. Even though it is hidden away most Egyptians believe in magic of some form or another."

"So we have a wizard enclave somewhere here in Egypt?" Yugi asked excitedly wanting to see this whole other hidden world.

"Yes there are a few enclaves in Africa including one here. The Egyptian enclave runs a bit differently compared to other enclaves though." Isis answered.

"How is it different?" Atem asked curiously.

"Well they still practice ancient sorcery and its rituals mixed with modern magic and because of this Magical Egyptians have their own school instead of sending them to the ones that are a part of the International Confederation of Wizards or ICW for short. They use electronics and modern conveniences like the rest of the population and yes what I mean by saying that is that some enclaves don't use any modern technology." Isis said before Seto could interrupt her from that statement and continued on with her lecture. "They also lack certain prejudices against people whom do not practice magic, and they still value the royal bloodline of their ancient kings and queens."

"So these wizards we ran into were most likely not from Egypt's enclave and came from one that thinks they are more superior to the rest of the world?" Atem asked thinking he should have been more aggressive in taking them out.

Seto frowned, "More idiots who think they are superior to the rest of the world. Wonderful."

"I will show no mercy next time," Atem said with displeasure coloring his voice.

"That is correct. I don't believe the wizards you ran into are from Magical Egypt. We will have to keep an eye out for foreign magic users from now on." Isis answered wondering what those foreign wizards were doing in Egypt.

"So does this mean you are going to let us see this enclave Isis?" Marik asked hopefully. He had never been told about this bit of information so he was curious about this hidden place.

"Yes. All of you need to be introduced to the governing body and introduced to the population since ruling over magical Egypt is part of our duties." Isis said hesitantly but relieved when the Pharaoh just nodded his head with a look of resignation on his face.

Meanwhile...
The Death Eaters located Augustus and told him what had happened.

"They were not using wands and whatever they did to Amycus and Rowle we cannot seem to undo." Alecto explained upset that her brother wouldn't wake.

"I didn't recognize the spells they were using either." Peter squeaked out nervously.

Augustus sighed. He had no idea who the teens were or what magic they used on his colleagues. "Peter you will have to take Amycus and Rowle to the Dark Lord and report this to him. I need to stay here and keep researching. Alecto stays here with me to help me find something for the Dark Lord."

Peter immediately apparated to Riddle Manor with the bodies. He dropped them off in the infirmary they had in the old mansion, turned death eater base of operations, and left to find the Dark Lord.

"What news do you have for me? Did you find something?" Voledmort asked impatiently surprised to see Pettigrew back from Egypt.

Peter bowed to his Lord and told him what had happened and no they hadn't found anything yet.

"Crucio" Voldemort yelled angrily as he digested the news. Some strange magic wielders took out two of his Death Eaters with unknown magic. He held the spell for a few minutes before releasing the coward. "Return to Egypt and do not return until you have something for me. As for these magic users keep a look out for them and report to me anything you find out about them if you see them again. They may prove to be useful if they are powerful. Now leave my sight. I will deal with the other two."

Peter bowed out and returned to Egypt.

Back in Egypt…
The last day of their mini-vacation Isis took them all to the enclave. She took them straight to the main government building. The teens entered the acting prime minister's office with Isis and she greeted Isis like a sister would.

"It is so good of you to come visit me. You have not in so long." Samira pouted to her friend.

"Forgive me. Isis replied, but I have brought with me good news and some people for you to meet." Isis explained that Atem, Yugi, Seto, and Mokuba were the last of the royal bloodline of the pharaohs that could be traced back thousands of years.

Samira got an excited look on her face and called for some Aurors to come give the official blood test to id the teens. The tests confirmed Isis's words and Samira explained how exciting this was since the people of Egypt had been waiting for their return for two-thousand years. Isis quietly explained that Atem was not ready yet to take the throne and wouldn't be until next summer and the others needed to finish their senior year. Samira was disappointed but understood. That gave her a little under a year to prepare the magical community for such a huge change in their lives.

"Would you and your priests like to see part of your country and people, your highness?" asked Samira politely hoping the Pharaoh would agree.

"Thank you. We would love a tour of the area." Atem replied smiling slightly in excitement at seeing this new world.

Wizarding Egypt was a mixture of ancient Egyptian culture and modern culture. There was a market place that sold all kinds of magical supplies. The teens took their time looking at all the different vendors. There was a man who was selling flying carpets and broom sticks. They also walked past a building that held magical pets. There was a vendor that carried magical and non-magical candies and sweets. They purchased a few of the magical candies for later. Samira showed them the bank where money could be exchanged. Unlike banks in Europe this bank was not run by Goblins. There were no goblins in Egypt due to hostilities from the Medjai clans and tomb keepers. They went into the book store and spent quite a bit of time in there browsing the modern and ancient texts that the store had. The mages saw the wand shop and eyed it curiously.

"If you would like to learn neo-magic it would be easier to perform the spells with a wand. Because shadow magick is a battle magick it doesn't have spells like neo-magic. Since neo-magic isn't soul-based magick like ours you should be able to the cast without magical fatigue." Isis informed her charges not really caring if they learned neo-magic or not. Though she wasn't sure they really had time for it.

"I think we have enough on our plates at the moment to learn anything else at the moment." Atem stated getting nods of agreement from the other teens who were all but exhausted from their busy training schedule.

At the end of their tour Samira took them the magical café where the teens ordered desserts that they had never seen before in the non-magical world. After a pleasant day they went back Cairo to get ready to return to Amarna.

As soon as they all returned to Amarna vigorous training began fairly quickly for the mages. Shadi and Kaphiri really didn't waste any time. Seto, Bakura, and Atem began getting more and more of their memories back as the days went by. It helped listening to Mana and Kisara's stories since they both retained their full memories. Even Isis was regaining her full memories as she used her shadow magicks. Yugi, Ryou, and Marik had also begun to be more proficient in their shadow magick as well. Isis had even begun giving Mokuba basic lessons in shadow magicks seeing as his powers were beginning to show.

The mages enjoyed their summer even if they were being pushed to their limits to learn everything they needed to know and regain. Atem and the others continued studying their shadow magick extensively for the rest of the summer and Shadi had finally declared that they had re-mastered their magicks. Seto and Mana had yet to re-learn the ancient sorcery they had practiced in Kemet but they were both ready and willing to learn. Yugi and Ryou could finally read ancient hieroglyphs. Ryou and Bakura's relationship had finally mended and grown. Bakura and Kisara had also re-established their sibling bond. So all in all a good summer for the mages.
