A/N: Before I begin:

1. I do not own Harry Potter or Naruto.

2. I'm writing this to improve my writing skills. I'm trying to cut down on the dialogue.

3. I will not abandon my other story, HTFFAG

4. Please, please, please give me advice on anything related to writing!

5. I won't abandon this either.

All five Kage scowled, but didn't say anything to deny it.

Tsunade felt like screaming. Madara was already an almost invincible opponent, but then he had to go and make himself immortal and get an infinite amount of chakra. He was right; they were doomed.

Madara smiled evilly. "Fire Style-!"

Before he could finish his technique, the Kazekage, Tsuchikage, Raikage, Hokage, and the Mizukage were enveloped in a soft blanket of light, vanishing and leaving behind a very confused Madara.

"Where did they go…?" he mumbled, feeling kind of stupid. "Oh well, better go help Obito!"

The five Kage tumbled onto the ground ungracefully. Or, to be more accurate, Tsunade, A, Onoki, and Mei tumbled onto the ground while cursing each other and Gaara floated on a cloud of sand serenely.

The four Kage got up and glared at Gaara.

"You sand-nin were always a bunch of show-offs!" accused Onoki furiously, clutching at his back.

Tsunade, A, and Mei simply glared at him.

Gaara shrugged. "My sand automatically protects me. It's not my fault you lack grace and agility."

"YOOOOUUU!" shouted Mei. "Lava Style-!" "Excuse me."

The five Kage turned around towards the voice and sweat-dropped.

About one-thousand children were staring at them along with twenty or so adults. An old man with an extremely long white beard was pointing a… stick at them.

"Who are you?"

Madara smiled serenely at a horrified Naruto.

"B-but, if you're here… WHAT HAPPENED TO THE KAGE?" shouted Naruto, preparing to hear the words-

"I don't know," said Madara, his creepy smile replaced with a confused look.

Naruto, Kakashi, Killer B, and Obito blinked. Finally, Naruto said, "Whaaa?"

Madara scratched his head. "I was about to finish them, but they disappeared. I have no idea what happened to them."

"You mean they disappeared to another dimension, like with my Sharingan?" asked Obito.

"Um, no, they were… How do I say it… Eaten by a white light," explained Madara. "Though it is possible they're in another dimension."

"Hn…" mumbled Obito. "Whatever, deal with them later. Uh, what were we doing again?"

"You were trying to kill me," said Kakashi helpfully. "And I was trying to figure out how you turned evil."

Obito brightened. "Ah, of course! Uh… DIE, KAKASHI!"

"WHY, OBITO? WHY?" howled Kakashi, his hand sparking into a Chidori.

Naruto sweat-dropped.

Madara face-palmed. I really need to get a new lieutenant.

The five looked at the old man blankly.

"…What did he just say?" asked A. The others shrugged and tried to come up with a plan.

Finally, the five Kage came to a conclusion. The Mizukage and Hokage, Mei and Tsunade respectively, were too hot-headed and would probably end up making the old man angry, which they probably didn't want to do since they were in a room (HALL) full of (probably) able children and adults of unknown strength. The Tsuchikage, Onoki was just too old and had zero respect for people who don't earn it, and the Raikage was too brash and also hot-headed.

Gaara felt his heart sink when he realized that he was the only suitable candidate for handling the old man who spoke in a strange language.

Mei smiled evilly and pushed Gaara forward.

Tsunade smiled evilly as well and walked over to Gaara, who had landed on the floor on his feet.

The people in the hall were still staring at them expectantly.

"Who are they?" muttered Harry, staring at the five mysterious strangers.

"I don't know, but they must be wizards!" whispered Hermione.

"What makes you say that?" asked Ron, confused. Hermione groaned. "Ron, the red-headed one is sitting on a cloud of sand. No muggle can do that!"

Ron looked blank for a moment, then said, "Ahhh. I see."

Hermione sighed. Ron could be so stupid sometimes. Actually, all the time.

Finally, the red-headed one on the cloud of sand was shoved forward by a woman with auburn hair who was grinning kind of evilly. He landed on the ground like a cat, but was then pushed by the blonde woman.

Everyone in the Great Hall (excluding the strangers) felt their jaws touch the floor as the red-headed teenager flew across the hall along with a cloud of sand and crashed into a cushion of sand.

The two women looked slightly disappointed.

"B-blood-"

"Ron!" hissed Hermione. "Language!"

Ron scowled but didn't say anything.

Finally, the teenager got up and said something in another language.

"I am Gaara of the Sand, and this is-" He broke off and said drily, "You don't understand me, do you?"

Dumbledore mumbled, "Japanese," and flicked his wand at them, which made them flinch slightly.

"There, can you understand me now?" asked Dumbledore. The red-head nodded. Now that Harry got a closer look at him, the teenager looked like a raccoon with his rimmed eyes. Mascara, perhaps?

"I am Sabaku no Gaara," said… Sabaku?

Dumbledore tilted his head. "Since in your language you introduce yourself with your last name first, is it safe to conclude that your name is Gaara?"

Gaara nodded while Harry felt kind of stupid for thinking that 'Sabaku' was his first name.

"That is-" (Gaara pointed at the blonde woman) "Senju Tsunade, the other woman is Terumi Mei, the old one is Onoki-" (Harry couldn't help but feel that they weren't on the best terms from the glare that Onoki gave Gaara) "-and the last one is A."

Dumbledore blinked. "Just 'A'?"

'A' growled. "Yes, 'just A.'"

Dumbledore nodded sagely. "I see. And where are you from?"

Gaara gave the others a quick glance. Tsunade muttered something in Japanese. "Tell them the truth."

Gaara nodded. "We were in a middle of a battle."

Dumbledore looked at their injuries. They sure looked like they were. "Against whom?"

Gaara bit his lip. "Uchiha Madara."

Dumbledore raised his eyebrow. "One person?"

"A crazy strong one person," growled A. "We Kage are one of the strongest ninja of our era, and we still couldn't beat him."

"Oh?" said Dumbledore. "Why?"

"How do I phrase this?" mused Gaara.

"He's a psychopath who wants world peace," offered Tsunade.

Hermione got up. "B-but, isn't world peace a good thing? Why would you want to stop that?"

Harry stiffened. What if they were in league with Voldemort?

Gaara glanced at Hermione. "I don't know about you, but to me, reality, even one in constant bloodbath, is preferable to an illusion of peace."

Hermione looked terrified, but she managed to say, "W-what do you mean?"

"Madara wants to cast the ultimate illusion over the world using the moon as a chakra source so that it will be eternal," said Mei irritably. "We aren't fighting against peace, we're fighting to keep reality."

Hermione's eyes widened. "How is that even possible?!"

"We are ninja. With chakra, anything is possible," said Tsunade. She suddenly gasped.

"Oh no!"

The four looked at her.

"I think we're in another dimension!"

Onoki let out a sigh. "Uchiha possesses the Mangekyou Sharingan. According to our sources, the other Madara can transport people to other dimensions. It is possible."

The pink toad-like woman who had just finished her impossibly dull speech (Umbridge, I think, recalled Harry) coughed lightly.

"Excuse me," she said in a honeyed tone. "But I was wondering was a 'Ka-gay' is."

Gaara glared at A. A looked slightly horrified as he realized what he had said previously.

"We Kage are one of the strongest ninja of our era, and we still couldn't beat him."

"A Kage is the leader of a village," explained Tsunade, also glaring at A.

Umbridge smiled sweetly, making Harry want to throw up. "What kind of villages?"

From the way Tsunade glared at Umbridge, she felt the same.

"I am the Hokage, the leader of Konohagakure, the Village Hidden by Leaves," she said, looking slightly smug.

"I am the Raikage, leader of Kumogakure, the Village Hidden by Clouds," grunted A, arms folded across his chest.

Mei smiled cheerfully. "I'm the Mizukage, leader of Kirigakure, the Village Hidden by Mist."

Onoki huffed. "I am the Tsuchikage, leader of Iwagakure, the Village Hidden by Rocks."

All eyes turned to Gaara almost disbelievingly.

No way can that guy be a leader of a village, he's too young, thought Harry.

"I am the Kazekage, leader of Sunagakure, the Village Hidden by Sand," he said lightly, teal eyes looking straight at Umbridge.

Umbridge narrowed her eyes. "Oh, really? But aren't you too young? How old are you, fifteen?"

Gaara appeared in a swirl of sand next to Umbridge. Everyone's eyes widened.

"I am seventeen," he said. "Please do not underestimate me. I am Kazekage for a reason."

Umbridge turned slightly red. Some of the students tried to cover up their giggles but failed.

"But he's only two years older than us!" whispered Ron loudly. Harry winced.

Gaara looked straight at Ron, making him shudder. "I have been Kazekage since I was fourteen. If I was not fit for the position, I would have been replaced already."

Hermione's eyes widened. "Fourteen?!"

Harry choked. Fourteen?

The other 'Kage' were coughing wildly and trying to cover up their laughter while Gaara glared at them except Onoki.

"Ahh, didn't the Tsuchikage verbally abuse him because of his age at the Kage Summit?" said Mei, giggling wildly.

Tsunade started howling with laughter. "Did he? That would've been something I would've paid to see! The Tsuchikage scolding the Kazekage!"

A coughed and generally sounded like he was dying.

Gaara twitched. "I want to Sand Coffin you all so much it hurts," he muttered.

Harry was confused. Sand Coffin?

Tsunade smirked. "Just try."

Mei was still laughing. "It's even funnier if you replace him with his father, the Fourth Kazekage! Imagine the Tsuchikage scolding the Fourth!"

Tsunade and A stared at her. Then…

"AH HA HA HA HA HA HA!"

Harry was pretty sure sand was not supposed to act like that. Before the sand could strangle the laughing Kage, Dumbledore spoke up.

"Very well, you may stay at Hogwarts as long as you do not hurt anyone," said Dumbledore. "Ms. Senju-

Tsunade held up a hand. "Please call me Tsunade. No one addresses me by my last name. It is the least I can do for your help."

The other Kage nodded, Onoki somewhat reluctantly.

Dumbledore smiled. "Tsunade, Mei, A, and Onoki may use the library and stay here, or teach."

Mei looked confused. "Teach?"

Dumbledore nodded. "Anything as long as it is approved by me."

Umbridge looked furious. "Now, Headmaster, shouldn't you run this by the Minister first?" she said dangerously.

Dumbledore beamed. "I will take care of it later. For now, you can board her."

They nodded.

"What about me?" asked Gaara.

Dumbledore smiled. "Since you're seventeen, you qualify to be a student at Hogwarts. Of course, you can stick with the other Kage as well, if you wish."

Mei and Tsunade choked. Harry had to admit, as ridiculous as the thought of a seventeen-year old leading a ninja village was, the thought of said leader of a ninja village attending Hogwarts was even more ridiculous.

Gaara was about to say 'no' when Tsunade said, "Well, why not?"

Gaara glared at her. Tsunade sighed. "Think about it. You're probably the only one out of us who hasn't gone to school."

Hermione's eyes widened. "But how did you become a Kage then?"

"Kage are usually the strongest ninja in their village. Besides, I did get tutored until I was seven, so I know the basics," said Gaara irritably.

Everyone stared at Gaara. "You mean you're the strongest? But you're so young!" said Hermione.

Gaara ignored her. Harry got the feeling that Gaara was getting irritated by all of the comments about his age.

"Everyone who wants the Kazekage to go to this school say 'Hai'," offered A.

"Hai."

"Hai."

"Hai."

"Hai."

"Traitors," muttered Gaara.

Dumbledore smiled brightly while Umbridge looked like she was going to explode. "So I guess Mr. Gaara will be going to Hogwarts! Minerva, the Sorting Hat, please!"

McGonagall motioned Gaara towards the stool. Gaara scowled but complied and sat down on the stool. Mei giggled.

A few seconds later…

"GRYFFINDOR!"

The Gryffindor House cheered loudly. Harry clapped with them. Fred and George practically jumped Gaara. Hermione was muttering the questions she was planning to ask him under her breath.

When the ruckus died down, Gaara stood up and glared at the other Kage. "As I am now a student, you will be doing all of my paperwork," he said curtly.

The other Kage looked horrified as Gaara walked angrily out of the Hall.

"This year's going to be very interesting," said Ron, eyes following Gaara.

Hermione gasped. "Oh no! He doesn't know where Gryffindor Tower is! Come on, Ron, get the first years!"

Ron looked flustered. "Er... OI, MIDGETS!"

"Ron, you can't call them midgets!"

A/N: I know that Slytherin is where Gaara usually ends up, and Gryffindor is kind of typical, but honestly, can you see him in Hufflepuff or Ravenclaw? Plus, Gaara isn't really that 'ambitious'.
