Duel Monsters, Wizards, and Vertically Challenged Duelists, Oh My!

Chapter 1

Arrival *Edited*

Even if you normally ignore the author's notes, this time you hafta read them. There's important crap, not just our silly ramblings.

Mojobubbles: HI!!!!!!!!! Welcome, to our Harry Potter/Yu-Gi-Oh! crossover!

Y. Mojobubbles: First things first: go read this story.

It's called "The Muggle Box Is Singing To Me!"

Mojobubbles: It is a story by us that takes place before this story. It is a sort of prequel, and you need to read it. Go now. (pokes readers) We'll wait.

All: (wait)

Mojobubbles: Also, I have an OC in this story. Her name is Kaya Tanaka, and she is Yami's little sister. Here is her story, Pokeduelsmon: You don't need to read this story, Kaya and Yami will be explained in chapter three.

Y. Mojobubbles: If you do go read "Pokeduelsmon", just remember that, although in "Pokeduelsmon" Kaya is a Pokemon trainer and friends with the Pokemon characters, she is not a trainer in this story. The only way that Pokeduelsmon is similar to this story is that Kaya is my OC, is friends with Yami Bakura, has the eighth Millennium Item, is Malik's best friend, and is Yami's little sister. IN fact, her age changed. In Pokeduelsmon, she's 14, I think, but in this she's fifteen.

Mojobubbles: Ok, next thing: romance. THIS IS NOT YAOI OR YURI. I REPEAT, NOT YAOI OR YURI.

Kaiba: Why do I get the feeling you don't like yaoi?

Mojobubbles: I DON'T LIKE IT! Well, I don't mind fluffy yaoi, so......

Kaiba: @_@

Mojobubbles: Anyway, here are the official pairings: Kaya/Bakura, Mai/Joey, Isis/Yami, Kaiba/OC, Yugi/OC, and Ron/Hermione. I'm also considering Harry/Ginny. There also might be Malik/OC. Feel free to submit other pairings.

Y. Bakura: (giggles evilly) Exxxxxccccceeeellllleeennnntttttt..

Mojobubbles: But, there are to be no love triangles, and no yaoi or yuri.

Y. Bakura: Damn.......-_-

Y. Mojobubbles: Aw, poor chibi Yami Kura-chan! You can do the disclaimer.

Y. Bakura: Ok. Yami Mojobubbles and Mojobubbles do not own Harry Potter or Yu-Gi-Oh, Dr. Pepper, Britney Spears, England, Japan, Egypt, evan and jaron, or SpongeBob SquarePants. So, if you sue them, they will sic their army of rabid plushies on you. Which is not fun. Believe me. (shudders)

Mojobubbles: Also, Blue Mystic Moon Warrior (BMMW) I got your review on The Muggle Box Is Singing To Me! And this is my response: Screw you. It's my fic, and I like romance. I'd like to see you write a romance fic!

Hermione: They act like they hate each other!

Yugi: Actually, they're, like, best friends. They just show it by insulting each other.

Y. Mojobubbles: (flipping through a clipboard) Ok, I think that's it....oh yeah, one more thing!

Readers/cast: (groan)

Y. Mojobubbles & Mojobubbles: HAVE FUN!!!!!!

***************************************************

"Does it ever stop raining in England?" Tea wailed. It certainly seemed as though it didn't. The sky had been dark since Yugi-tachi had left Japan. The train pulled slowly into the station. Yugi's face was glued to the window, and it wore an expression similar to one a five year old in a candy store might have.

"So....this is King's Cross Station, right?" asked Joey as the train came to a stop.

"If it's not, we're in trouble!" joked Yugi's grandpa, joining the rest of the group.

After a few minutes in which everyone frantically checked their luggage, the group got off the train.

Yugi was clutching the Millennium Puzzle, as though if he didn't he would lose it.

//Yugi, are you alright?// Yami mentally asked, but Yugi could sense amusement in Yami's voice.

/Yami, we're finally here!/ Yugi answered excitedly. //I know, aibou.// Yami teased, but Yugi knew Yami was excited too, since Kaya was coming home.

Yugi suddenly felt himself elbowed by someone. He tripped, and fell. Before he could be trampled by the passerby, someone grabbed his arm and yanked him to his feet.

Yugi looked up and his eyes met a pair of vivid green ones.

The boy looked to be Yugi's age, with messy black hair and glasses. (Mojobubbles: Gee, who is it? -_-)

Yugi opened his mouth to say thank you when he remembered he and the boy didn't speak the same language. So, he grinned and the boy grinned back.

Just then, there was a shout, and a large man seized the boy by the back of his neck and began shouting at him in English. The boy turned back to Yugi and rolled his eyes at the man who had grabbed him. Yugi grinned and shook his head, as if to say, "There's just no hope."

//I don't believe it.// Yami gasped.

/What!?/ Yugi asked.

//Yugi, I could sense that-// But Yami was cut off by Joey's shout.

"Yug!" he called, jumping up and down like a baka. "Their train is coming in!"

Yugi pushed all thoughts of the boy from his mind and ran to the others.

The train was coming in, a train from Egypt. On the train was Isis, Malik, and Kaya, coming to meet their friends for the first time in nearly a year. (Y. Mojobubbles: Ok, we told you where to find information on Kaya, remember?)

The group was anxious and excited at the same time. The train finally pulled in, and Yugi let his now-hyper yami take over.

"There they are!" Yami shouted, pointing to a window.

"Malik! Isis!" Kaya shouted. "There they are!" Kaya and Malik began waving and jumping up and down like demented cows. Even Isis was having trouble staying calm. Then they were allowed to get off. Most people calmly stepped off the train. But Kaya /flew/ off.

"Yami!" she shouted. She flung her arms around his neck, tears streaming down her face. Yami hugged her back.

"I missed you," he smiled, blinking tears out of his eyes. Joey sighed loudly.

"I guess Kaya ain't happy to see the rest of us," he grinned.

"Aw, Joey!" Kaya said, hugging Joey and kissing him on the cheek.

"Uh, yeah," Joey said, blushing like crazy. "I, uh, missed you too." Everyone laughed, and greetings were exchanged among the friends.

On platform 6, Seto Kaiba stepped off another train, saw Yugi-tachi, and groaned. Of all the days /they/ had to decide to vacation in England, he was sent to England on a business trip.

***********************

The group headed to the hotel, trying to figure out room arrangements. Yugi's grandpa had his own room, and there were two other rooms for the rest. It was decided that one room would be Joey, Tea, Tristan, and Malik. In the other room was Yugi, Bakura, Isis, and Kaya.

(Mojobubbles: If you are getting any ideas, get them out!!!! There isn't lemon/lime!)

20 minutes later, the friends were clumped in Yugi's, Isis', Bakura's, and Kaya's room. Joey had turned on the radio, and Malik and Kaya were screaming for him to change it because it was some American singer named Britney Spears.

Tristan turned on the TV and flipped around until he found an American cartoon called SpongeBob SquarePants.

Unfortunately, it was the F.U.N. episode. The teens would have it stuck in their heads for weeks, and would annoy the heck out of all the hotel employees.

"Would /someone/ make them be quiet?!" Isis groaned, gesturing to Kaya and Malik, who were still screaming about Britney Spears.

Bakura pushed over the radio and adjusted the dial.

"Stop!" Kaya shouted. "I love this song!" Bakura wondered how she could hear it, but he shrugged and listened to the song. It was Crazy For This Girl, by evan and jaron. Kaya was singing along.

"Would you look at her, she looks at me! She's got me thinkin' about her constantly, but she don't know how I feel. When she carries on without a doubt, I wonder if she's figured out, I'm crazy for this girl!!!!!"

Kaya suddenly stopped singing and her violet eyes met Bakura's chocolate brown ones. He had been watching her, a strange look on his face. Bakura quickly looked away.

(Bakura's POV) Hearing the lyrics of that song was pretty strange. Kaya was amazing. She didn't know how I felt, that I was crazy for her, and she never would. All because of a ring. The spirit of my Millennium Ring was one of her best friends, and I knew that he thought of her as maybe more. If he knew how I felt about Kaya, the things he could do to me were unspeakable.

(Back to the narrator POV) Kaya walked up to Bakura and took his hand. "Are you ok?" she asked, not showing a single sign that she had just consumed 3 cans of Dr. Pepper. Bakura looked up and smiled, but it didn't seem quite real.

"Will you walk with me?" he asked, trying not to blush. Kaya nodded, and they left the room. No one noticed. No one except Malik, Isis, Yami, and Yugi. Malik opened his mouth to say something, but Isis elbowed him in the stomach. So Malik gave her the finger. (Mojobubbles: No no no Malik!)

The two walked next to the hotel for a moment, neither of them saying anything. Bakura broke the silence. "Kaya," he began. "What if..what if you really liked someone, and you thought that just maybe...they liked you too."

"That'd be cool, but-" Kaya prompted.

"But...there's someone who wouldn't let them be together," Bakura said.

"You mean...someone like a psychopathic 5000 year old tomb robber?" Kaya grinned.

"How did you know?!" Bakura gasped. (Mojobubbles: Remember, BMMW?) Kaya shrugged.

"I'm a people person?" she grinned. "I dunno." Then she got serious. "Is there any way I can help? Maybe I could help you tell her-"

"NO!" Bakura said loudly, and Kaya jumped. "I'm sorry," he said quickly. "Thank you for the offer, but..." He looked at the ring. "It wouldn't work out." And he walked away.

Kaya stood there, thinking. She silently cursed Yami Bakura for putting his hikari through this. Then Kaya wondered. Who could this girl be? Then something occurred to her.

Maybe..there was someone else who would keep Bakura and his crush apart. Maybe that other someone was a 5000 year old, confident, King of Games who was slightly overprotective of his little sister.

****************

It wasn't until he was nearly asleep did Yugi remember Yami's reaction to the boy.

/Yami, remember that boy? Well, what did you sense about him?/

//It was nothing, Yugi. Just go to sleep.//

But Yugi didn't hear, he was already asleep. Yami wondered, however, if he should have told Yugi. No. It was impossible. That boy couldn't be a wizard.

Could he?

***********************************************

Mojobubbles: Wow.

Hermione: What?

Mojobubbles: I don't have anything to say.

All: (anime fall)

Ron: Hey, me, Harry and Hermione aren't anime characters, but we can do anime falls anyway! COOL!

Dobby: Dobby hopes that sirs and misses will review the story!
