Two Magics, One Evil 2.0

Disclaimer: Don't own Yu-Gi-Oh! or Harry Potter.

Kilnorc: Alright, here I am with this. Now, to those who have read my profile, they know I've been mulling this over for a bit and I believe that now, it's a good a time as ever to start revamp. Maybe during this, I'll get back into the series more so I can do my other Yu-Gi-Oh! works.

I must warn you, old fans of this series, that some things will be quite different than the old series. You'll see them as I go one. Enjoy.

Letters

Tap-tap-tap

A groan came from under the comforter.

Tap-tap-tap

Another groan came.

Tap-Tap-Tap

"Man, what is that?"

Yugi Motou, resident of Domino City, Japan, and current King of Games slowly sat up in his bed, yawning loudly as he scratched his head. Blinking slowly, trying to get the eye crust out, he looked towards his window, where the tapping sounds had come from.

There was nothing. Not a single thing at the window.

"Did I imagine that?" Yugi mumbled, turning to his bedside table where a beautiful golden pyramid sat, linked to a thick chain loop, "Pharaoh...are you awake?"

The pyramid, also known as the Millenium Puzzle, glowed brightly for a few moments before a transparent figure appeared, sitting on Yugi's bed. He looked very much like Yugi. He had spiky hair that was made up of golden, lighting-tip bangs, dark hair in the middle, and six, purple-tipped spikes that stood in the air. However, while Yugi had violet-colored eyes, the larger version had a mixture of violet and crimson.

This was the spirit of the Millenium Puzzle, a spirit from ancient times with no memory of his past, and the only clues were other Millenium Items they had come into contact with, as well as a woman from the Domino City Museum named Ishizu Ishtar, who had called him Pharaoh. However, despite the loss of memories, the spirit had accepted being called Yami.

"Good morning, Yugi," Yami said with a smile, "Sleep well?"

/Well, yeah, except I heard-/

Tap-tap-tap

/That! What is that?/

Yami turned to the bedroom window to see an owl, of all things, pecking at the glass.

"An owl?" the Pharaoh scowled, "It's the daytime, what's an owl doing out in the daytime?"

/I dunno. Maybe it's a special kind of owl?/

"Maybe," Yami rose from the bed and walked to the window, getting a closer look at the owl. It was a large, brown feathered owl with an envelope in it's beak.

"Yugi, it has a letter,"

/Are you serious?/

"I'm not lying...I think you should take over,"

/What, why?/

"Because there's writing on the envelope and it's addressed to you, apparently,"

The ancient spirit went back into the Puzzle and Yugi was back in his body. Curious about the owl, Yugi opened up the window and the bird hopped right into the room. Slowly and carefully, Yugi reached out and took the envelope from it's beak.

"Uhm...thanks?"

The owl hooted and flew off into the morning sky. Yugi closed the window and walked over to his desk, looking at the envelope. It was addressed to him, and in green ink, no less.

/Go on, open it, Yugi/

Mr. Y. Mutou
The Upstairs Bedroom on the Right
Kame Game Shop
Domino City
Japan

"A letter with not only my address on it, but the exact location of my bedroom?" Yugi looked up from the envelope, "Why do I smell a prank?"

/Yes, it does look suspicious, Yugi, but who would do such a prank? Joey?/

"No," Yugi shook his head, "Don't get me wrong, Joey's good with messing with people, but he's not exactly the sharpest tool in the shed. Tea wouldn't play a prank, she's too nice. Tristan only messes with people with Joey helping him. Duke's too busy with his store. That only leaves two people,"

/I seriously doubt Kaiba and Bakura would go out of there way to prank you, Yugi. Kaiba's hellbent on beating us in a duel, and Bakura would rather kill us for the Puzzle/

"Good point...," Yugi looked at the letter again and shrugged, "Well, I don't know what's inside, but there's only one way to find out," he sighed as he began to rip the envelope open. Inside were two sheets of strange looking paper. One of them appeared to be the letter, while another looked like a list of some kind. Both of them were written in the same ink as the envelope.

Yugi's eyes began to scan the letter and as he read it, he couldn't believe what he was seeing.

Yugi stood there in the middle of his room in silence. He lowered the letter, a confused look on his face.

"What...in the world?" he looked at the other piece of paper, the one that looked like a shopping list.

/That...is odd/

The young duelist exited his room and clambered down the stairs, "Grandpa...?"

"Over here, Yugi!"

As he reached the level of the Kame Game Store, he looked over to the counter to see his grandfather, Solomon, standing behind the counter, looking at a few different books, a pen in his hand.

He must be checking inventory again... Yugi thought as he walked over, "Grandpa, I got this just a few minutes ago,"

"Oh, really?" Solomon asked, not looking up from his books, "New cards?"

Yugi shook his head, "No, it's a letter. An owl came and delivered it to me,"

At the words "letter" and "owl", Solomon snapped his head upward, eyes focused on his grandson. He saw the letter in his hand and pulled it over to him.

"Grandpa, I think someone's playing a weird prank on me," Yugi sighed and placed his head on the counter, "It's bad enough I get mobbed to duel random people, I get bad pranks delivered to me by owls...,"

"Yugi, this is no prank,"

The King of Games looked up at his grandfather, "Say what?"

"This is no prank," Solomon repeated, lowering the letter, "I was wondering when this day would come. For four years, I thought you were normal, but it seems that you aren't. Then again, after all you've been through...,"

Yugi frowned, "So, wait, what are you saying, Grandpa? There is a magic school?"

Solomon nodded and broke into a grin, "This is fantastic, Yugi! I have to call your mother right now, tell her the good news! She was worried when you didn't get your letter before!"

"What?" Yugi blinked, "Mom knows about this place? Then...you and her are?"

The short elderly man took a deep breath and reached over the counter, placing his hands on his grandson's shoulders, "Yugi, there is something about our family you need to know,"

-----

Joey Wheeler reached over and picked up the ringing telephone, "Hello?"

"Joey, it's Yugi! You will not believe what just happened!"

"Yugi-,"

"Don't worry, it's not a Shadow Game or anything like that, but still, you won't believe it!"

Joey glanced across the room at his little sister Serenity and his mother, each of them giggling like crazy. He then looked at two opened envelopes on the coffee table of his mother's house.

"Try me, Yugi...,"

-----

"This is garbage," Seto Kaiba muttered, crumpling the letter and throwing it into a nearby trashcan, "Mokuba, toss that out,"

His little brother looked at the letter in his hands. He and Seto had gotten one from a black owl that visited their mansion earlier that morning, but after reading it (and making sure it was safe to open) Kaiba disregarded them as nothing but a poor prank attempt of the mutt, aka Joey, and tossed his away.

Mokuba, on the other hand, was more open minded.

"Seto," the raven-haired boy looked up at his brother, "I dunno why, but I think we need to call Yugi about this,"

His brother scoffed, "The only time I'll call the runt is when it's time for me to duel him again. I lost my chance during the Battle City Tournament, and I won't waste my time giving him a social call,"

-----

Tea Gardner stared at the letter in her hand, blinking in confusion.

"I kinda expected it to be a letter of acceptance to a dance school, but I get this instead...," she tossed hers on the table and rubbed her temple, "Joey, you are the worst prankster I know...and that's comparing you to Brian!"

-----

That evening, as the sun began to set, Yugi sat at the dining room table, mouth agape and his eyes wide as saucers. Yami appeared to him in his spirit form and waved a hand in front of his hikari's face, "Yugi? Can you hear me? Yugi!" he snapped his fingers, "Yugi, snap out of it!"

Yugi's mother and grandfather looked at the young man for a short time.

"Think that was too much at one time?" his mother asked Solomon, "It's like he left his body due to shock,"

It wouldn't be the first time he's left his body... Solomon thought with a laugh, "Let him soak it in. When he's ready, he'll come back, just give him time,"

Kilnorc: Well, there's the first chapter of my revision of Two Magics, One Evil. I hope I can make this more feasible given what I know of original YGO and the Harry Potter book series. Of course, I'll still have my OC, the original Millenium Item that belongs to him, and his pet. Stay tuned folks, and wish me luck in this!
