First I don't own Naruto, Harry Potter and the other characters and places you recognize in this story. No infringement intended.
This will be a crossover. The main are Harry Potter and Naruto. This is an Alternate Universe.
The start of Destiny's headache.
Chapter 1: How it began.
Her first memory was a beautiful voice, warm hands, an exotic smell of perfume wavering in her nose and the warm feeling of being loved. She remembered being lowered onto something soft then the sound of a door closing.
Then the feeling of something wrong, she wasn't alone any more, somebody else had come. A high pinched laughter and a cold voice saying words she couldn't understand and then the taste of blood. A flash of emerald green, a voice screaming in agony and a searing pain in her forehead. Then there was somebody lifting her, cold callused hands and a yellow flash of light. Wind pressuring against her and everything went black. Her next memory was of a terrible pain in her abdomen. Something was smoking and she could smell the disgusting smell off her own burning flesh and then everything went black for second time.
She had only vague relocation of the next 5 years. The many bad memories, the first time the career in the orphanage hit her, the first time she got her arm broken and the time she almost was raped. She was hiding in her rom. It was her room because none of the other children wanted to be near her. She remembered she was crying when the door hit the wall. The next she knew she was pressed down into the madras and somebody was dragging her skirt up and then she screamed. She remembered being hit when she scratched her attacker in the face still screaming. She was flipped around and pressed face down into the madras, then somebody brutally dragged the man away from her. She remembered seeing a green blur hitting the man into the wall and then she was hustled protective against a big green shoulder and a feeling of absolute safety. She never did find out who saved her from that man, but she would never forget him.
It was because of him she got her first god memories in her life. In one day she got her first birthday present and then hokage finally let her move out off the orphanage and into her own apartment.
She was 6 years old then and even if the apartment was small, only had cold running water and was pretty run down, she had her own home. The most important was that she had a safe place to sleep. Even if she had to try to make her own food of what little she could afford to buy and lived alone, she was happy. She had a solid lock on her door and windows, but she still slept with a kunai under her pillow for safety reasons.
People of the village still hated her and she hated them in return. When she went outside her apartment people snarled and glared at her. Mothers and fathers dragged their children away from her and when they didn't think she herd, they called her monster behind her back. If they didn't openly hate her they ignored her like she was an object, like she was worthless. She hated it. Their condemning stares when they looked at her and the way they said her name when they didn't call her a monster.
One time she had asked the sandaime about her name. He had told her what her name meant and accidentally told her that she was named by the yondaime. When she asked why the yondaime named her he went silent and was suddenly very busy with his paper work. Even as young she was then she wasn't stupid, if she had been stupid she would have been dead. She understood that something was fishy. Why would the Yondaime name an orphan and when would he have the time for it, the village was after all attacked the day she was born?
The hokage would not tell her and she dobbed that anyone else would talk to her so she went to the library. She couldn't ask the librarian so she was forced to try to find it herself. But to find a book about yondaime in that big library was difficult. She was turning around a corner when she crashed into someone. It was a boy. He couldn't be more than 4-5 years older than she was and had long black hair.
She was surprised when he held out an arm and helped her up. Usually nobody but the hokage wanted to touch her. Then he asked about why she didn't see where she was going she blurted out that she wanted to find out about the yondaime. He looked at her then he gestured to follow him. She wasn't sure that it was a good idea but followed anyway. He led her to a hidden alcove and told her a secret. A secret about a monster, a man's sacrifice and the reason for her suffering. She didn't know why he told her this and broke the law, but she was thankful. At least now she knew.
She learned to hate the sound of her own name. She hated the feelings it gave her. Her name was given by a coward, prized as a hero for a defeat he didn't do. What kind of person let a child take the hatred he had to know would befall it. There could be tree different reasons. One: he could be naïve enough to truly believe that Konoha would respect his wish and honor her as a hero. Bull shit! There was no way a ninja at his age that had lived thru a war, was that naïve. Two: He was stupid enough to not seal Kyuubi inside himself. Not possible. A ninja that stupid would not survive very long. He couldn't have been that little flexible ether. That leaves number tree. He wanted Konoha to have a weapon. That was the only reason she could think up. Like hell, she was going to play into his plans. She would not become his puppet, following loyally when he pulled at her strings from the grave. That meant that she could not become a shinobi. That was a dilemma, to be able to protect herself she needed the knowledge she would get at the ninja academy. But finishing the ninja academy would make her a ninja, if she fulfilled the graduation exam. The only thing she would have to do was to fail the academy exam tree times, and then they couldn't make her a ninja. That decided the issue. Naruto Uzumaki would enroll in the ninja academy, but not graduate.
The next thing on her to do list was to change her name. Who, except the bastard yondaime, would call a girl, fishcake spiral anyway? Wasn't it enough that she had the most powerful demon in the element countries sealed behind her bellybutton? She wanted, no, needed a new name. It would have to happen in a legal way that the hokage couldn't change. The only way that Naruto knew about was the nine scout maidens. They was masters of the elements and when they gave somebody an new name nobody could change that. The only risk was that they could give her an even worse name than the one she already had. After all, they named the person after their own soul and personality. If you was a nice, happy go lucky person you got a nice, happy go lucky name, too.
Naruto swallowed and turned her back on the library. Then she took a couple of deep breaths and started to walk towards the nine scout maidens temple. She didn't see the black haired boy that followed her with his eyes as she rounded the corner.
Naruto reached the Nine scout maidens temple and walked in the door to the fire maiden. The fire maiden was known for her temper, control over fire and her ability to look into the future. She was beautiful and had a tongue that could peal the paint from the wall at five foot away or if rumors was true, the west of a jonin at ten. What the hell did the man think any way? Everybody knew that the scout maiden hated porn.
Naruto was sweating as she knocked on the door and walked in. The fire maiden sat in front of a large fire that almost reached the roof.
"Sit down." She said. It wasn't an order, but Naruto knew better then to not do as she asked. She kneeled on the crimson mat behind the miko. They sat in silence for a while before the flame miko turned around and looked upon Naruto. She didn't look at her with disgust or anger and Naruto slowly relaxed. The rumor about non judgment appeared to be true.
"Why do you want a new name?" Asked the priestess.
"The man that gave it to me had made himself unworthy to the honor of giving a child name the very same moment he chooses to sacrifice the very same child for his own intensions." Naruto answered with hard voice. The hatred she felt for that man was clear in her young voice and made a flighty look of pain cross the flame heiress face.
"What kind of name do you want?" She asked while staring sightless into Narutos cold green eyes.
"What ever name you give me will be more mine and me than the one that I have the dishonor to carry." Naruto answered.
The priestess lifted a hand and touched the scar in Naruto's for head lightly. Then she let her hands slide up into Naruto's wild fringe and down the back of her head. Her blind eyes stared throw Naruto then she lifted her hand free of Naruto's wild hair and folded them in her lap.
"Your soul shines like a star." She started, and then she stopped and touched the scar on Naruto's forehead again. Her forehead wrinkled, if she wasn't blind Naruto would have sworn she was glaring at her scar.
"And you are like a dragon, you will never give up as long there are life in you and maybe not even then. Destiny will hate you and chaos will love you beyond mortal comprehension." She continued with a smile.
"You are very lucky, and by your own choice, ka is in your future as well as your name. Your true name is Hoshika Kichiryuu." She stated with a note of finality
A bell started to ring and with a voice like thunder many voices made one said
"It is witnessed. It is done!"
For one short moment Hoshika thought she saw a redheaded male (Kyuubi) throw his head back and she barley herd his laughter, and then there were only her and the blind fire miko sitting in front of the sacred fire.
It was the day she filed 9 she started to experiment with chakra.
She had found a scroll the day before and since she couldn't go out on her birthday without being beaten into the ground she tried to read it. She learned about focusing her chakra and hand seals but what really fastened itself in her memory was a single paragraph at the very end of the scroll.
#Hand seals are not the only known way of using chakra. Explosion notes for one instance are a way to use chakra without hand seals. There are possibly to use very familiar jutsu without hand seals. There is also rumors about an art called alchemy, which is said to be able to use chakra without any hand seals. #
That small paragraph changed her life by giving her the hope of the possibility to create jutsu without a teacher and without hand seals. She knew that the village didn't like her. She knew that when she started the ninja academy she would not get any help if she struggled. She knew that she had to be able to protect herself. Not many would help the outcast girl. If it wasn't for that nice ninja with the green uniform she would have been raped and perhaps killed that day. And she refused to come in any situation like that ever again. So she had to be strong, and being strong came from power. Power was a well trained body, mind and soul. She could run and do as many push-ups and sits-ups as her body allowed but to learn Taijutsu, genjutsu and ninjutsu she would need a trainer. And that she dobbed any would want to be trainer for the monster girl. She could survive as a brawler, maybe. But then she would need to know at least some genjutsu and ninjutsu. She was pretty sure that nobody would want to teach her that. But if she created her own way to use chakra she could become powerful and able to protect herself and as an added price maybe escape the possibility of being chained to the village that she hated.
She was Hoshika Kichiryuu and she didn't bow for a bunch of self-righteous and arrogant villagers.
