Did you guys miss me? I hope not too much.
Sequel to The Shinobi Teachers is here! This is The Shinobi Teachers: Shinobi Come Back To Hogwarts! I hope you all will enjoy this and I am glad to re-introduce everyone to the shinobi teachers themselves! Safaia Uzumaki, Yoru Uchiha and Jeido Hikari!
Safaia: (Grins widely and shows 2 victory signs)
Jeido: (Politely waves, with a hard to read face)
Yoru: (Just sits and 'hn's)
Heh-heh, looks like he's still not a big talker. That's okay, nothing to worry about. What am I forgetting? (Safaia whispers something in my ear) The disclaimer! Of course!
Disclaimer: I DO NOT own Harry Potter or Naruto. I only own my OC and a copy of Half-Blood Prince.
Also, on a sadder note: since I already have plenty of stories to have nerves rattled, I probably will be able to update maybe each 2 weeks, maybe more, but I am not making such big promises. For now, I will try to keep it coming steadily and nicely, but I have a personal life too. Don't forget that.
Let's rock and roll this story!
Summer was coming to an end and soon Harry will be able to get back to Hogwarts. A good thing is that everyone in the Wizarding World knows about Voldemort's return and is trying to keep an up guard. The new Minister of Magic, Rufus Scrimgeour, has even tried to get some shinobi from the Elemental Countries as guards for some very important wizards, but for now the answer hasn't can only guess that with Konoha also making little efforts of making some defense the rest of the Country villages are doing the same things, giving them no time to answer to his cry for protection.
The weather outside was cloudy and cold, as if it could tell how Harry is feeling.
"Boy!" A voice came from downstairs. Uncle Vernon either wants something or simply Dudley did something bad and blamed him for it.
With a heavy sigh, Harry went down the stairs and saw that his uncle was standing next to Dumbledore and a tall, slim figured, pale, flawless skinned female shinobi, in full gear, with a pink themed slug mask. This shinobi has short pink hair, which for Harry looks familiar, but he can't remember where he saw such natural looking pink hair.
"Ah, Harry! I see you are still fine. We have important matters to attend to." Dumbledore says.
"Sir, who's this?" Harry pointed at the ANBU shinobi.
"You don't remember?" Dumbledore furrowed his brows, before remembering, "Ah yes! She came without a mask. Without it, I think you will remember her perfectly. Could you take it off for Harry?" The shinobi turned her gaze towards Uncle Vernon and it was sensible: she had doubts about him.
"What are you looking at, weirdo?" Vernon sharply asked.
"You don't seem to be trustworthy Dursley-san." The slugged mask shinobi said in a monotone.
"Look, this is my house and you cannot decide if I am or am I not worth your stupid trust!" Vernon yells, while his face was turning red of rage.
"No wonder you don't have many friends. I wouldn't want to be a friend to such a yelling abomination." She replied in the same voice.
"Now, now. Let's not get hasty. The faster we get this over with, the sooner we can all go our ways." Dumbledore says and tries to make his way to the living room.
"I always adored those muggle chairs and couches. Much softer then our own." Dumbledore sat down on one of the big armed white chairs. Petunia and Dudley were standing in the kitchen and looking, as the shinobi follows him and stop between him and Harry, acting like some guard.
"Now Harry, we must discuss about Sirius Last Wishes." Dumbledore gets serious.
"He's dead?" Vernon's eyes seem to shine with joy, so did his voice.
"That is no way to talk about a relative." The female shinobi said in the same monotone voice.
"That freak is no relative to me!" Vernon spats at her.
"He was your nephews godfather. In distant, he is your relative. Don't act like your mother-in-law just died." She replies sharply, making Petunia gasp.
"Slug." Dumbledore looks at her, with a disapproving tone in his voice.
"Gomenasai, Dumbledore-san. He asked for it, I should add." The shinobi, now identified as Slug, does a small polite bow.
"Who would call their kids like bugs?" Petunia asked.
"All I can say is that Slug is my codename. My real name shall stay a secret for now, Dursley-san." She replies, giving an invisible to see threw the mask glare.
"Before this turns into a blood-shedding fight," Dumbledore interrupts, "May we start with the will?"
"Just get over with it!" Vernon exclaims.
"Very well." Dumbledore takes out a letter and takes out the letter, "By your godfathers last will, Harry, you shall get the Black house, Grimawald Place 12, as the money, Sirius had in his account, transferred into the Potter vault and Kreacher. Since you are the new owner of the Black household, you can say for the Order to move out or stay."
"You can stay, fine by me." Harry says, unsure what to do now.
"Oh! It seems you have a test that you must pass in order to get this or else everything will go into the ownership of his cousin, Bellatrix Lestrangle." Dumbledore read out the last sentences.
"Nani? Sirius-sans no kira wa kare no mono o shoyu suru koto ni naru?" Slug asked, from what Harry could guess, in Japanese.
"No speaking gibberish in my house!" Vernon yells out.
"That wasn't gibberish. I'm pretty sure it was Japanese." Harry replies.
"Get that Oriental freak out of here!" Vernon yells out, "No cross eyes will step here even one foot!"
"I would advise for you to shut up. Or else you might end up dead sooner." She makes her hand glow deadly green, scaring all of the Dursleys so bad, that Petunia hid behind Dudley and he hid behind Vernon.
Harry didn't seem scared, he recognized that green color. Jeido Hikari, a shinobi from Konohagakure, or simply Konoha, by the codename Cat, used on injuries: a medical jutsu.
'A medic-nin. Jeido did say they are as dangerous, if not more, then the other shinobi's.' Harry thinks, as the glow disappears.
'Wait, a medic-nin and pink hair? She seems familiar, but where did I see her? Jeido has black hair. Did she change them to pink?' Harry wondered.
"Harry. Will you try to pass the test?" Dumbledore asked, re-reading the testament.
'Not letting that witch get what belonged to Sirius.' Harry boldly thinks.
'He seems a bit different then the last time, I saw him. But that was also my first time, so I might be mistaking.' Slug thinks about it, her green eyes, not visible threw the mask, focus on Harry a bit more.
"I will try and take the test." Harry states.
"Maybe, if you pass, you can finally move out of here!" Vernon spats and moves back a bit, when Slug turns her gaze at him.
"Very well. Kreacher!" Dumbledore calls out and, with a crack, Kreacher appears next to them, in all his…creepy looks.
"What is that thing?" Petunia shrieked.
"This would be the Black family house elf, Dursley-san." Slug guesses.
"Correct. Harry, you must make Kreacher obey you." Dumbledore said and pointed at the elf. Kreacher walked around and pulled the curtains down.
"Kreacher…stop!" Harry yells out spontaneously and Kreacher stops immediately. Then he grabs his neck and falls down on the ground.
"It seems that you passed the test Harry. Congratulations, you now own the Grimwald Place 12." Dumbledore smiles and nods.
"Can you now get out of here?" Vernon yells out, face all red again.
In 10 minutes, Harry walks down the stairs with his trunk and Hedwig in her cage and walks out the door to Slug and Dumbledore.
"Before we head to the safe place, we have one more stop. Slug, do you mind?" Dumbledore looked at the kunoichi, who replies: "Do what you must do, Dumbledore-san." Dumbledore nods and extends his hand, which Harry sees is turning black for some reason, and both of them grab onto it, as they Apparate somewhere else.
"Finally those freaks are gone." Vernon grumbles and something blows up in his face in the door frame, making it black.
"POTTER!" He yells out, with his face now pure oil black.
Harry found himself in some quite, empty street, with no life visible in any house.
"Ah, we're here." Dumbledore looks at the house right in front of them. It looked made of grey bricks and it didn't show any signs of life.
"Looks like he was waiting for us." Dumbledore walks towards the house, knocks politely on the door, then opens the door and enters.
"Aren't you going with him?" Harry looked at Slug.
"My mission is to protect and keep safe anyone who is at the moment with Dumbledore-san. Once you enter, so shall I." Slug explains and gestures for him to walk in. Quickly so, Harry does. Slug was close on his heels.
The house looked grey and lifeless. Judging by the moving pictures Harry could guess that this was a house of a wizard. No one was present though.
"Someone is in this room." Slug walks into the living room and stares at a particular closet. Then she takes out a kunai and quickly opens it up, surprising the person within. This person was a short, round, old looking man, in brown robes.
"Don't kill me!" He screamed out.
"I believe this is the person you bothered to visit, Dumbledore-san." Slug backs off and tucks away the kunai.
"Ah, Horace. So nice to see you. Harry, Slug, this is Horace Slughorn. He used to be a teacher in Hogwarts, but now has retired." Dumbledore explains.
"Nice meeting you, but forget it Albus! I won't go back! I am hiding very well, until this lady came. By the way, who is she?" Slughorn asked, indicating at Slug.
"This is Slug, she is a kunoichi of Konoha. Currently, I am her client and she will keep all of us safe. She is, after all, a Sannin." Dumbledore explains.
'Sannin?' Harry feels like it rings a bell.
"Nice to meet you, Miss Slug, but I stay on my word, Albus, I won't go back to be a teacher at Hogwarts!" Slughorn exclaims.
"Well, I tried. Do you mind if I use the bathroom? My stomach hasn't been feeling well lately." Dumbledore looks at the direction of the toilet.
"Why, yes of course." Slughorn nods and Dumbledore goes.
"So, you are Harry Potter, the Boy-Who-Lived." Slughorn looks over Harry and stops at his eyes, "Spitting image of his father, but your eyes…"
"Just like my mothers. I know." Harry has heard the same line over and over. It's getting annoying.
"I used to teach your mother, when I was still a professor. She was such a talented child, very talented. Maybe if she ended up in my House, she would've become famous." Slughorn looks over some pictures of some famous people, "These were once my students. I am very proud of them. Of course, the courage your mother showed is worthy of a mentioning too."
"Sorry for asking, but which House's Head were you?" Harry asked.
"I was Slytherins, but I treated all students equally all the time. I only paid them special attention during my club meetings. The Slug Club, it was called." Slughorn remembers.
'Don't tell me I have to change my codename if this guy is for real.' Slug thinks bit mad at her choice of a codename.
"Yes, maybe you are like your mother. Talented." Slughorn looks around the room.
"You shouldn't remember a person just by their talent or skill. They should be remembered as friends." Slug comments in the monotone.
"Do you know any of this what I feel?" Slughorn asked.
"Maybe, I cannot tell, but you need to think about what you are doing: will you deny it and stay hiding or will you face up to your fear and fight against it?" She moves her mask aside, so that Slughorn can see half of her face, while Harry can't see even that. Slughorn only gasps when he saw her face: "You remind me of her. Almost the same emerald eyes, but much more angelic."
'Emerald eyes, pink hair, Sannin. Could she be…?' Harry wonders, just as Dumbledore walks back in: "Sorry to keep everyone waiting." Slug quickly moved her mask back in place.
"You took your time, Albus. Is everything alright?" Slughorn asked.
"Yes, I just found some of those lovely muggle magazines and I possibly lost track of time." Dumbledore guesses, "It seems that you won't agree on coming back. Very well, I will try to mind a new teacher. Goodbye Horace. Slug, Harry let's go." Dumbledore gestures for the both to leave with him, just as Slughorn says: "Wait! Damn you Albus, but I will come back! I promise. You will see me at the Feast." Dumbledore nodded, with a smile and the 3 left.
"It seems that your plan worked, Dumbledore-san." Slug says, just as they were far away from the house.
"Plan?" Harry asked.
"Yes, I wanted Horace to come back, whether he likes it or not." Dumbledore points out, "And you 2 helped me in it. Chop-chop. We must go soon. Your friends are waiting for us." And with that, a quick grab and faster Apparation, to wherever this safe place is. When they landed, Harry looked around. It was a huge forest, with a simple ground road and big gates with the same Konoha insignia the shinobi of Konoha wore.
"Translatio!" Dumbledore points his wand at Harry, "Now you can understand what the people are saying, what is written and they can equally understand you."
"What?" Harry asked and saw Slug talking to 2 men at the gates. One had really wild hair, while the other had his left eye bandaged up. Both of them were wearing grey uniforms.
"Welcome back Sakura-sama." They both greeted.
"Come Harry. We must hurry. I don't think he has the most patience like she has." Dumbledore rushes inside the giant village and, taking a tighter grip on the trunk and the cage, he follows the 2.
Harry looked around the village, which was Konoha by the way, and was surprised to actually see shinobi and civilians living knowing each other and having no problem with that. Wizards could try and take an example from these people. The buildings were made from wood and they looked old, although a good chunk of these buildings looked brand new.
They, however, were walking towards a big compound up north in what was called The Clan Compounds, lead by, Harry now feels embarrassed not to remember her, Sakura Uchiha/Slug.
'Merlin's beard, I should've tried to remember such shocking pink hair on a woman's head.' Harry thinks, embarrassed of himself.
"I shall depart here. Your destination is up front." Sakura stops at a white and dark blue (nearly black) themed Japanese style compound with the symbols:
うちは(Uchiha) on the wood piece on the gates, tall white walls standing over them, and the gates looked made from strong black metal with the Uchiha symbol as the lock.
"Thank you for your efforts, Sakura." Dumbledore slightly bows to the pinkette. With that she enters the compound, but not before holding her hand on the fan for the gate to open for her.
"You see that Harry? That was some sort of a chakra lock. It can only be opened by the person whose chakra is inside the lock and can be identified as a friend or a family member. Wondrous. Now let's go. I bet they're waiting for us." Dumbledore the takes off to the biggest compound there is. It seemed to be bigger then the Uchiha one and it was themed red, blue, white and yellow. Walls: white/yellow, roofs: mostly blue, but in some places it went red and from afar it looked like a giant red swirl on blue background. The gate was also a black metal one, but with a big swirl instead of a fan, it also had a weird 3 end like kunai and something like a sword crossed together. On the piece of wood was written: 波風- うずまき
"I see we made it just in time for some delicious lunch." Dumbledore looks around.
"Yeah, when Kaa-san cooks, she does it good." A cheery voice said.
Harry turned around to see Safaia standing behind them. She was wearing dark shade of leaf green cargo pants with the blue pouch on her right thigh, blue sandals, an orange no sleeved, but with a hood, that had white fluffs on it, jacket, it was half closed and she also had a dark blue top. Her hitai-ate was around her forehead, with the same wild looking blond spiky hair with some red and blue strikes, with the same navy blue color it was when she came last year. Difference from last year is that she looked slightly older and prettier, but that could simply be because he hasn't seen her in a while.
"I'm so glad to see you, Harry-kun!" Safaia smiles at him.
"Eh, yeah…good to meet you to Safaia." Harry stammers back.
"Well then, let's hurry up and enter. Hermione-chan and Ron-kun are waiting for us." Safaia goes to the lock and opens the gates.
"Ron and Hermione are here?" Harry asked.
"Yes and they are anxious to meet you again." Dumbledore rushes them both in.
The inside was big itself. There were some Asian trees, Harry had no idea what they're called, a pond, and the compound itself wasn't small. The walls were what they were, it was a bit above ground, made of light wood and there were a lot of those sliding paper doors with similar symbols of that swirl that was on the roof.
The sliding paper door opened up to reveal a young women, but definitely older then Safaia, with long, to her waist deep blue shining hair, pale flawless perfect skin, white eyes with a hint of lavender, dressed in a long white kimono with a light purple obi, and some light lavender like flowers were drawn on it.
"I hope you remember my Kaa-san, Harry-kun." Safaia says.
'Safaia's mom? She looks so different from when I saw her.' Harry remembers Hinata serious looking and dressed ready for battle, 'But she still looks like an angel.'
"Lovely meeting you again, Harry-kun. I hope Sakura was nice to you." Hinata welcomed him in a quite shy-ish voice, which made her just seem prettier.
"Oy," Safaia's annoyed looking face appaeared in his vision sight, "You better not be thinking about having the hot's for my Kaa-san." That startles out of his thoughts and Harry fells that his cheeks are slightly red and warmer. Safaia turns away and huffs, "What is it with men and beautiful women? Can't you look at us without any fantasy?"
"If you didn't look so damned attractive, then maybe. Until then, bear with the burden." Yoru comments, while sitting on the roof.
"Just get down from there, Yoru-kun!" Safaia called at him.
"I'll come down later, for that little date we have." Yoru says, making Safaia turn red herself.
"Your friends are waiting for you Harry-kun. We should go and see them." Hinata says and shows them to take of his shoes, while 2 middle aged looking people came and took his trunk away.
"Who are those?" Harry looked as they carried his stuff away.
"Namikaze clan servants. They used to work for the Yondaime, but after his death, they went to work for other clans, till my Tou-san took his rightful title and they came back." Safaia explains then rushes him in.
Ron, Hermione, Ginny, Fred, George and both Weasley parents are sitting at the Japanese small table on which you have to sit on ground. The dining room was a classical Japanese one with traditional yellow walls, some dark brown small tables around, yellow and black floor mats and some nice paintings in scrolls on walls.
"Simply wonderful. They live in harmony, both the shinobi and the mugg-sorry, civilians. Fascinating." Mr. Weasley was saying. He is dressed in his usual work clothes.
"A village full of assassins – fascinating?" Mrs. Weasley asked. Now she is wearing that kimono she was given from the servants as a little present. And it was a red one with a yellow weasel-like animal and a yellow obi. Arthur also had one, but he didn't like the idea of wearing a kimono, which looked something for ladies to wear.
"But they explained how they work. And it is fascinating. Such an amazing system. And they have schools for it. Amazing." Mr. Weasley says as he tries to eat the sushi, just as the door opens and Harry walks in.
"Harry!" Ginny wanted to get up and give him a hug, but nearly fell over by her own kimono, which was pale shade of pink and it looked like she had an emerald green stag on it and a emerald green obi.
"You can sit here." A dressed in white uniform elderly female servant showed a seat and Harry sat in it, which was next to Ginny and Ron.
"Lunch shall be given to you." She says, bows and leaves to get lunch.
"What do you think about this place?" Mr. Weasley asked.
"I think it's…great." Harry said.
"Of course! After the war, Konoha has been one of the best villages to date. Everything is perfect." Safaia exclaims.
"But not in the Wizarding World." Hermione points out. By the way, her hair is tied in a traditional bun, since she decided to explore their culture more, while wearing a golden kimono, with white owls and a white obi.
"Don't bring in sad thoughts Hermione-chan. Everything will turn out fine!" Safaia reassures her.
"I would believe her, Miss Granger. After all, she is one of the owners of this magnificent household." Dumbledore points out.
"Hina-chan! Safaia-chan! I'm back!" A loud voice comes from the main entrance.
"Looks like Naruto-kun is back home." Hinata points out, as she puts the ramen on the table.
After lunch, Harry found out that until school starts, he has to stay in Konoha for safety. He was both happy and mad for it.
Happy: because everything looked so peaceful, a person can forget about his troubles.
Mad: he was being treated like a baby again.
"Blimey, how do you think they manage to live like this?" Ron asked.
"They have been living like this for a long time Ron, they are more then used for such life. Something wizards should learn." Hermione says.
"What do you mean?" Fred asked.
"Let's compare: shinobi are wizards and muggles are civilians. Civilians and muggles can be treated alike, but such civilians are highly treated for simply being clients, whereas wizards don't see muggles of any worth at all. Shinobi can survive almost anything, they are fit and they can perfectly live with normal people, whereas wizards cannot do either of that. They are better." Hermione explained.
"Ignoring such facts: wizards are better." George points out.
"Suit yourself." Hermione says and leaves the window, just as Yoru jumps down on the window.
"You coming?" He asked and Safaia took off with him.
"Looks like they're on that date." Ginny guessed and took a piece of dango.
"A wonder what will he do to make it romantic." Hermione sighed.
"Well he better not do anything she doesn't want to, cuz if he does, there won't be a Yoru Uchiha." Naruto threatens to no one particular.
"Naruto-kun." Hinata whispers a bit.
Where did Yoru take her, none knew, but mainly everyone enjoyed their time in the compound and soon, it came evening, dinner time and then off to bed, who felt sleepy.
The wizards rooms were located on the east side and each had a room, with sliding doors. Harry even found a kimono on his futon/bed. A red and white themed one.
'Must be a present.' Harry guessed and put it aside.
He will ask questions about all this tomorrow. But for now: sleep. His body clock has to adjust for the new time.
I don't know, if Kushina had a sword, but from what I've read, she had one, so I'm basing off of these facts.
I mostly tried to follow what was in the book, but it wasn't easy, since my cousin borrowed it for a while and I am working on pure memory of the book and movie.
I hope you enjoyed this chapter. If you have any questions ask me and I will try to answer them all. As much as I can anyway.
Later!
