Title:Hunters versus Rebellion
Author:superhackaninja5
Rating:T
Summary:The four worlds lived in peace. It wasn't perfect, but it worked. Until four brothers and sisters, one from each of the worlds, decided it wasn't enough and formed the Rebellion Force. Afterward, a new organization formed that called themselves Hunters and proclaimed themselves the Rebellion Force's rivals, handpicking a few select people from each world to be their recruits. Draco Malfoy won't be their only problem, however, because while Tara, born of Silverwatch, is convincing him to join the Hunters in Wizarding, disaster is brewing for the chosen recruits on Duel Monsters when Zane Truesdale, the second Exception, attempts suicide after one loss too many, leading to a devastating betrayal. Now it looks like the break Zane needed will never come.
Timelines:
GX:Set after Zane's first underground duel, but Zane made a different choice and decided to lose the duel rather than lose himself. Only one that sticks to at least some of the canon.
HP/NARUTO:Throw everything with those out the window. Naruto:Still an Uchiha massacre with Sasuke and Itachi as the only survivors, but not inflicted by Itachi. The incarnates killed their family(clan, whatever)and they both belonged to the Hunters at the time.
HP:Forget about Voldemort. He never existed and only Harry's mother is dead, killed by the Wizarding incarnate and he was the first to be targeted. Draco and his father do get along and there is the whole thing with the three Exceptions.
Disclaimer:Don't own anything except the plot, the incarnates, Shannara, the settings, idea of the four worlds, Sian and Tara, because that's, well, me.
Note:I just love crossovers with these characters involved, so I decided to write one. This is my first fanfic, so enjoy!Dedicated to Shannara Erickson, because I wrote this story just to include her.
Chapter 1:One Story Ends, Another Begins
Smoke.
Flames.
Screaming.
Anything and everything he wanted to hear was all around him, the noise crashing down on his ears.
This would be the end for the others, the ones who were nothing but opposition. The beginning for them and their like's rise. It wasn't over quite yet.
Standing up, he surveyed the carnage his onslaught had caused with grim satisfaction.
A smile crept over his bloody lips.
"That's the first time I've seen you smile in ages," Mahrianos commented, sauntering over to stand beside him."This is the first time I've had a reason in ages," Levannon replied without looking at her.
Mahrianos shrugged her shoulders."What's the reason now, then?"she asked, forcing him to meet her eyes.
His deep green eyes turned to face her jewel-like amber ones and he answered,"Our time has rebellion force is beginning now." With a swirl of his dark cloak, the two of them vanished to begin their preparations.
The hunters were ready for or not, it wasn't over.
Craevyna woke to the sounds of fighting.
~Present Day~
"Have you guys met that new girl, Tara yet?"Harry asked, pushing a lock of jet black hair away from his emerald green eyes.
The boy closest to him shrugged.
"She's nothing really special, is she? Naomi has several classes with her and according to her, the only special thing about Tara is she's just as unnaturally smart as Hermione," he said, shaking bleach blonde hair out of his face.
"Well, of course Draco wouldn't think very much of her. No, he's waay too absorbed in Naomi Goldzonn," a girl with curly brown hair drawled, rolling her brown eyes sardonically.
"You jealous or something, Hermione?"the man beside her quipped, sounding affronted.
"No!"Hermione cried out defiantly,"I was just saying-" They didn't get to find out what she'd been "just saying" because at that moment, the very person they'd been discussing appeared, as if from thin air.
"Someone say my name?"she questioned, arching an eyebrow.
"No, no one!"the man with flaming red hair exclaimed hastily, his freckled face turning a shade of red to rival his hair.
Tara raised her eyebrows even higher.
"O-kay, then. Ron, you're lying,"she pointed out, folding her arms across her chest and looking at him expectantly. Harry cut in for Ron.
"Honestly, Tara, we weren't talking about you,"he told her seriously, meeting her eyes fully, hoping they wouldn't betray him.
"Sure. Let's just say I believe you and we can all rest easy at night,"Tara proposed,"okay?" And with that, she turned away from them and left.
"That didn't go over so well," Draco muttered ruefully. "Ya think?"Ron shot back, his voice heavy with irony.
It was Draco's turn to roll his eyes.
"Break it off, you two,"Harry cut across them exasperatedly.
Draco shrugged again. "Where is Naomi, anyways?"he wondered, changing the subject abruptly.
"Maybe she's with Ginny or something," Hermione suggested offhandedly.
"Yeah, that really helps, ,"Draco said acidly, dripping with sarcasm and he took off to go look for her. "That worked out nicely,"Ron commented.
"Yeah, no kidding, Ron,"Harry added with an ironic chuckle.
Draco had very little luck finding Naomi around the grounds and wasn't until he ventured up the stairs in the direction of his Head's dorm, which he shared with the Head Girl and we can all guess who that is, can't we ?Yeah.
She was standing in front of the portrait hole that led into his dorm, looking incredibly troubled.
"Naomi, what's wrong?"Draco asked, sounding concerned as he made his way over to her.
Naomi looked up at him and just shook her head.
"It's nothing, Draco,"she assured him unconvincingly and she added,"Let's go back downstairs."
She held out her hand for him to take.
He raised an eyebrow, but didn't press the matter and just took her hand and allowed her to lead him back down the stairs.
The others were all still in the Great Hall when they reached it and Harry waved them over.
"Where'd you find her?"Harry inquired."Tell you later,"Draco replied with a nod at Naomi.
Harry shrugged and changed the subject.
"What's going on?"Naomi asked curiously."Nothing, we were discussing Tara but that sort of cut off once she caught us,"Ron answered.
"Wonder where she went,"Hermione commented to herself.
Draco heard her and added,"Don't we all wonder where she goes."Hermione nodded."There's a mystery for another day if I ever saw one,"Harry observed."Why another day?"Ron quipped questioningly.
Naomi left the group again, muttering about going for a rolled his eyes as he watched her retreating back.
~Time Lapse~
He found Tara surreptitiously in his common room, sitting on the green sofa with a serious expression encompassing her reserved features.
Draco was at a loss for words.
"What...are you doing here?"he wondered through nearly numb lips.
Tara turned to face him with her emotionless chocolate brown eyes."The time is coming,"she declared enigmatically,"The truth must be revealed before it's too late," "And what truth would that be?"Draco quoted with a slight sense of dread.
"Your identity as a Hunter,"Tara said without a hint of hesitation,looking him directly in the eyes.
He immediately took on an expression of pure disbelief.
"A hunter?What the hell do you mean by that?I don't kill animals for sport,"he replied, sounding immensely puzzled by her words.
Tara shook her head.
"Not that kind of hunter. The Hunters are an organization destined to battle our rivals until the end,"she corrected him calmly.
Draco raised a light blonde eyebrow at her, enabling her to sense his obvious skepticism.
"I'm not having you on, if that's what you're thinking, Draco. Everything I'm telling you is the complete truth and I know because I'm a Hunter as well,"Tara announced firmly. "I don't believe you,"Draco said stubbornly,"Why should I?"
"Because our worlds are in trouble,"Tara answered gravely, though her eyes remained as blank as ever, waiting for his reaction.
"What does that-what are you talking about, worlds,Tara?"he burst out in frustration, cutting himself off mid-sentence.
"That's right, I said "worlds".You didn't really think there was only a single world to this story?"Tara asked him incredulously.
Draco's answer was to stare blankly at her.
"Well, it's actually quite opposite. There are four worlds to this universe:Wizarding, Duel Monsters, The Land of Fire and the one that has only recently entered the picture is called Silverwatch for its inhabitants,"Tara explained, the guise of a storyteller. "And what world do you come from?Wizarding?"Draco said with false curiosity. Tara gave the first sign of any sort of hesitation.
"Yes,"she replied slowly, but Draco was far too sceptical to be able to detect any dishonesty from her tone. "The point is,"Tara pressed on hastily,"You can't keep living in the dark here. So I'm bringing the current war to your attention now," "War,"Draco repeated, dazed by the concept. "From confusion comes clarity,"Tara said mysteriously.
Slowly, Draco began to nod.
"I-I want to know,"he insisted hesitantly with the air of not believing what was coming out of his mouth.
"You sure?"Tara quipped,"because this isn't something you can just unlearn once you've heard the perils."Draco nodded,"I'm sure,"
Tara took a deep breath."Get comfortable,"she advised. Draco sat down on a chair across from her.
"It began with something arguably small:the union. The four worlds were already mutally joined, so the union was only speeding up the was before any real sense of time had been established, so you won't ever be able to read about it out of a book of any kind. After the union, a demon was born. With his brother and two sisters, they decided they didn't like the way the worlds were run and formed the Rebellion Force and led it as the were each borne of a different world-"
"And where do the "Hunters" you mentioned come into this?"Draco interrupted impatiently. "I'm getting to that,"Tara forestalled him," A long while later, when the war started, it was because our leader, and I say leader because he should be ours, decided that the incarnates vision wasn't he became the first and possibly last Hunter,"
Draco was stunned into silence.
"And your leader chose me to join as well?"he said when he finally found his voice again.
Tara nodded."I joined.I recommend you do,too, but it's your decision to make,"and with those words, she was gone again. Draco was left dumbstruck.
