Hello all :) I hope you like this story, it's my first so please be nice (constructive criticism is appreciated). I've written up to about the second chapter, but I want to see how people react. Enjoy!

Prologue

"Are you sure about this?" asked an older woman with a worried expression on her face. She had only heard rumours that these people really existed and now, one stood directly in front of her. How could someone so far away know about the return He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named?

"I'm sure, Minerva. I have great trust in him and he wouldn't come up with this as a joke." a younger looking women replied. Though they didn't look it, they were actually rather close in age.

"I'm worried about how the students will react..."

"They'll fit in, they can handle themselves." said the younger with a smirk.

"I meant my students as well." the other said, her mouth returning to it's regular tout line.

"Hmm... They might be a little shocked." the younger woman replied after some thought. She chuckled a little.

"I would be too, if I had found out about people like us." she continued. There were a couple moments of silence before the older woman spoke.

"I'll speak to the Ministry about having a portkey made... How many of your... students do you expect to be coming?"

"Well, I have a couple in mind, but only a few of them are the appropriate age to fit into the student body..." she answered.

"That would be the most appropriate."

"Hm. In that case, three." she responded. The older women eyes widened the slightest.

"Only three?"

"Any of my other options are either too old and obvious, or aren't yet ready to be away for so long." Her eyes seemed a little distant for a moment, while she was trying not to remember the horrible war of only half a year before. The older woman noticed this and immediately became apologetic.

"Oh, yes, right." She remembered what the woman had told her, that in their world they had faced a horrible threat and she had come to her. It wasn't because she needed their help to fight this threat, no, it was because one the younger womans 'students' had felt a great evil rising and becoming stronger, but not in their world. She came out of her reverie and looked back at the younger woman. "Will... 'he' be coming?" she asked. She didn't need to specify, the younger woman knew who she was asking about.

"Yes, him and his two team mates...They may not seem like much, but don't worry, they're strong." she responded with a chuckle. 'Some of the strongest I've ever seen.' The older woman stood and walked from her desk to stand in front of the younger one.

"The Portkey should be arriving in two weeks time, if not, I will alert you by the special hawk you have given us."

"Alright. I'll have my students ready." She also stood from her chair and shook the older woman's hand.

"I hope he's wrong about this, but if he's not, you'll be glad I sent them to you." The older woman released her hand.

"I hope he is wrong as well. I thank you for you're help, Tsunade."

"We will meet again at the end of the year, when all of this has hopefully ended. I'll come and bring my students home... I thank you also, Minerva. A word of warning: Don't underestimate them." The older woman was slightly confused by this statement but quickly brushed it off. She nodded her head to the older woman and in a puff of smoke, she disappeared.

"Until we meet again..."
