Hogwart Ninjas

Inspired by the story 'Anbu at Hogwarts'

Disclaimer: If I owned Harry Potter or Naruto I wouldn't be writing on ffnet.

"Why are we babysitting that Potter kid again, Sakura-chan?" Naruto asked, scratching his spiky, blonde hair.

"We're not babysitting him, Naruto. It's a bodyguard mission. We're protecting him from a dark wizard who is said to be extremely powerful." Sakura replied before mumbling 'idiot' under her breath.

Naruto nodded in understanding before turning to his silent companion.

"Neh, Sasuke-bastard! Where's Kakashi-sensei?"

The boy grunted before replying, "How should I know, dobe?"

"Bastard, I'm not a dobe!"

"Hn."

"And that's not a word!"

Smirk.

"Ugh!"

Naruto stomped off to sit in a corner by himself.

Harry Potter was appalled to find out that he now had ninja bodyguards to protect him. Hermoine thought it was an excellent idea.

"Harry, they're professional ninjas. They can save you from danger!"

Ron thought it was a load of rubbish.

Harry agreed and decided to voice his outrage to Dumbledore.

"But, Professor Dumbledore! I can take care of myself!"

"My dear Harry, they can protect you and you'll have less to worry about now."

"But –"

"No, buts, Harry. Now, off to class! Would you like a lemon drop?"

It was a lazy, sunny Saturday. Students were entering the Great Hall to enjoy their breakfast.

Harry grumbled as he walked to the Gryffindor table.

"I don't need bodyguards. I'm not some wimp…"

Ron nodded in silent agreement before beginning to shove his face with food while Hermoine shook her head in disgust at his lack of table manners.

"Ron, eat slower. The food's not going anywhere."

Ron opened his mouth to retort and Hermoine cringed at the sight of mashed up eggs and ham.

Poof!

Suddenly, a puff of smoke appeared right next to Harry, who gave a startled yelp and almost fell off the bench. The smoke also began to attract attention from other Gryffindors.

Once the smoke cleared, a boy with sun-kissed hair and shining blue eyes sat there with a wide grin on his face.

"Hey! You must be Harry Potter!"

Harry could only nod, still dumbstruck by how the boy had just appeared in a puff of smoke. Wasn't apparating banned in Hogwarts?

"Sakura-chan! I found him!" The boy began shouting as loud as he could while waving his arms around. Harry groaned inside and tried to avoid the gazes of curious classmates as they pointed and whispered at him.

Soon, a girl with pastel pink color hair walked towards them followed by a dark haired boy with his hands shoved in his pockets and a scowl on his face.

Ron stared bewildered at her, "Bloody hell, she has pink hair!"

Lavender whispered to Parvati, "Her hair is so dyed," and Parvati nodded in agreement. "But, that boy behind her is a hottie!" Both girls proceeded to ogle and gawk at him.

"Naruto! I told you not to run off like that!" the girl growled and cracked her knuckles.

"A-ah, sorry, Sakura-chan!" Naruto cowered behind Harry.

"Who are you?" Ron yelled and pointed at Naruto.

Naruto stared at him for a moment before flashing his white teeth and standing on top of the bench.

"I am Naruto Uzumaki and I like ramen, dattebayo!"

His announcement attracted everyone in the Great Hall's attention, which made Harry groan and try to sink lower onto the bench.

Please, don't mention me. Harry prayed. Please, please, please. I'll study more and stop sneaking around in my Invisibility Cloak, I promise.

"And I am Harry Potter's bodyguard!"

A ripple of laughter filled the hall, especially from the Slytherin table. Soon, Draco Malfoy and his two friends swaggered over.

"Potty, I heard you have a new bodyguard. Can't protect yourself, eh?" Malfoy smirked at Harry who glared back at him.

"Shut it, Ferret."

Malfoy's smirk became bigger. "Ohh, I'm so scared. What are you going to do? Tell your bodyguards to kill me?" Crabbe and Goyle sniggered behind Malfoy.

"Hey, you, back off." Naruto stood up and glared at Malfoy who blinked in surprise. "I don't know who you think you are, but you can't just talk to people like that!"

Malfoy growled. "Do you know who you're talking to?" Crabbe and Goyle stepped up and cracked their knuckles loudly.

"Heh," Naruto grinned as he stood up and faced Malfoy directly. "In the ninja world, two big guys cracking their knuckles aren't very scary. Trust me, I've seen worse, way worse."

"Oh, yeah?" shouted Malfoy, his face turning slightly red.

"Yeah!" Naruto screamed right back at him.

Malfoy quickly reached into his robes to pull out a wand before a pale hand gripped his wrist tightly. Looking up, he gulped as he stared into dark, onyx eyes of the other boy who had been silent the whole time.

"I suggest you leave," the boy said quietly.

Malfoy huffed and stalked away with Crabbe and Goyle lumbering behind him. Before disappearing out of their sight, however, he turned around and shouted, "At least I don't need bodyguards to protect me!"

Sakura promptly burst into laughter. "Aren't those two huge guys his bodyguards?"

Naruto snickered and Sasuke smirked.

"Uhm…"

The three ninjas turned to look at Harry, Ron, and Hermoine staring at them.

"Are you three Harry's…you know…"

"Yeup." Naruto grinned widely at Harry and slung his arm around the boy's shoulders. "We're going to be beeeest friends before you know it!"

Sakura coughed and looked away awkwardly as Sasuke stared at the wall behind them with a bored expression. Ron gaped openly at them and Hermoine blinked.

Poof!

The six teens immediately whirled around. Sakura and Naruto raised their finger and pointed at the figure.

"Liar!"

"I didn't even say anything yet."

Sweatdrop.

"Well," Naruto muttered, "It would have been a dumb reason anyways!"

Ron stared at the man before shouting, "How old are you? You have gray hair!" Hermoine immediately slapped him hard on the head muttering about manners.

The man rubbed the back of his head and his single, visible eye crinkled in a smile. "I prefer silver, thank you. I'm Kakashi Hatake."

Harry thought for a moment before he blanched. "Wait. Does that mean…you four are going to follow me around everywhere even to class?"

Naruto beamed brightly at him before exclaiming, "Yeup! Even to the restrooms!"

Harry stared at him with a horrified expression on his face before darted out of the Great Hall.

Naruto blinked before sitting down and reaching for a slice of toast. "I wonder what's his problem."

A/N: Don't kill me, please! I know I haven't updated 'Break My Lust' but I have no ideas for chapter three! Besides, I've been thinking of writing a HP/Naruto crossover for a while now ever since I read 'Anbu at Hogwarts' which is an excellent story by the way. I highly recommend you to read it! But, I promise you, I will be updating chapter three of BML soon.

Reviews are much appreciated!
