Team Seven & The Golden Trio

Team Seven were on a C-rank mission, which was almost B-rank. The Golden Trio were still in Konoha training, mostly they were being taught by Jiraya who was trying to get them to focus on their innate abilities.

Because they were wizards, their magic had manifested their parents' chakra skills, although Harry's Parseltongue abilities may have just been advanced by this; Hermione had a capacity to heal, Ron seemed to naturally get the Ragensan, but there was an ability they all shared, the potential to become completely wandless.

That was what they were preparing for the Chuunin exams in seven months. Ron had already learnt to summon griffins having a contract; Hermione was currently working on the phoenixes; Harry didn't know what to do…he wanted connections to his father but no one would let him…but he so wanted them. He wanted to know what a father was like...to have someone to be with on special days…to know where he came from.

Team Seven returned, Kakashi reported in, while the genin went to look for their friends. They found Ron and Hermione circling each other; Harry was nowhere to be seen. Both of them let out a fearful cry before falling to their knees. Harry leapt down from a tree, "I think I'm getting better with Genjutsu." He grinned.

"You're the one behind the Dementor?" Ron exclaimed; Hermione glared at the black haired boy, who stepped back realising he was in danger.

"GET BACK HERE POTTER!"

Both of them chased the green eyed boy all over the training area. Jiraya appeared with a plume of smoke, he looked at the trio of student ninja. "What exactly are you two doing?"

"He's evil!" Ron shouted. Naruto, Sakura and Sasuke noticed that Jiraya seemed to go on edge.

"Hey! I didn't call you evil when you used me for kunai target practice!" Harry shot back still avoiding Hermione.

"I didn't use a Dementor Genjutsu on you!"

"You hit me in the leg!"

"So?"

"The kunai went hilt deep!"

"Hermione fixed it; I don't see why you're complaining."

"Oh so you're allowed to use me as a guinea pig but I'm not allowed to do the same to you." Harry shot back.

"YEAH!"

Hermione stopped; thinking everything over, Harry was still running even though it was only Ron chasing now.

Harry let me test my medical jutsu skills even though he knew I might kill him, Ron wouldn't let me, but he still insisted that I help him with his jutsus…that selfish git!

"RONALD WEASLEY!" Harry stopped, before getting out of Hermione's way. Ron stared at the on-coming doom.

"Help." The redhead squeaked seeing the tables turned.

Jiraya was sitting with the other senseis, since he had been teaching the Sannin spawn as a teacher he was recorded as theirs.

Kakashi, Kurenai, Asuma, and Gai were talking amongst themselves. "I know that we may be called overconfident in the belief we know our teams can handle this, but your team haven't been in touch with chakra for over eight months, how can you be confident in their abilities to cope in a shinobi exam?"

Jiraya laughed putting a hand behind his head. "Well all three already had some experience beforehand, when it comes to the finals you'll see."

A team of Mist genin were sleeping, having been exhausted from collecting two extra scrolls for their comrades; when a trio of thunderclaps awoke them from their slumber. The three genin relaxed seeing it wasn't an attack as the rain poured down around their tree-trunk hollow makeshift campsite. Then just when they'd gone back to sleep…something sounded, in three united voices, "Protrific Totalus!" they couldn't move their bodies as their two spare scroll were taken. One spoke in a female voice, "Good. Now to find Sakura and the others. Harry…make sure they forget this."

"Obliviate!"

Jiraya grinned looking forward to the finals. But what if Orochimaru is there?

Sasuke glanced at the Golden Trio. How did they manage to acquire two sets of scrolls within two days?

Sakura and Naruto were also looking in that direction although not directly, only a sideways glance. They've gotten a lot stronger…amazing to do so within a short space of time. Hermione-chan's a lot like Tsunade-sensei; Ron is a lot stronger than Naruto, but maybe that's because their sensei is his father…Harry still avoids attention a lot, what's he trying to hide? Hermione-chan treats him like a brother…are they?

I can't wait to fight Sasuke-teme! Maybe Sakura will notice my greatness! I wonder what they would be like to fight? I bet Ron is the best one!

A lot of the leaf ninja had gotten through to the finals. Jiraya listened as the genin were dismissed. The genin nine and trio were the last from the room; the older trio looked at each other smiling. Ron turned to look at the senseis, Chuunin and Tsunade standing at the front.

"We're just going off for a butter-beer, to celebrate! And Harry wants to buy a Dark Arts book- (I do not!)- we'll send you a postcard!"

Jiraya and Tsunade looked angrily at the trio, all colour drained out of Ron's face. He was brought to reality by a loud cracking noise. He looked at Harry and where Hermione was supposed to be standing next to him. The green-eyed boy sighed before grabbing his shoulder and both vanished with a loud thunderclap like sound.

"That looks like a neat trick." Naruto was in awe.

Sakura was nervous, who was to be her opponent?

Silence enveloped their group of six; Ron was looking at his male best friend, who was still staring at the floor.

"You can do it Sakura-chan!" Naruto cheered. She smiled nervously. "You've got years of training compared to them!" Sasuke gave off a humph but it was aimed at rising her spirits.

Hermione whispered into her best friend's ear, "Give me your cloak. I won't have you performing a Dementor Genjutsu on her."

Ron gave him a look too, "Remember, you're half Gryffindor, you have to be at least a little nice to her." Jiraya was with the other senseis away from hearing distance.

"I don't care what either of them says; you deserve a family that isn't like the Dursleys." Hermione gave him a smile.

Once Sakura was gone, and Naruto saw Harry, remembering Hermione's match with Neji. "She's doomed isn't she?"

Sasuke stayed silent. Naruto followed where he was looking. "Yaoi oogler." The blond just got a light glare in response.

Orochimaru had sneaked in to watch Sasuke and see how far he'd improved. The weakling girl team mate of his was currently fighting a boy whose eyes looked incredibly familiar.

Lily's eyes…electric green with that passion, which he had loved so much…

Wait…is that?

"Serpent Sortier!"

…Oh Tsunade you never told me I had a son to carry on my legacy…this is perfect…and Sasuke-kun you seem to know too…or is it just lust in your eyes?

Sakura backed away from the large black snake that was between her and Harry.

The serpent launched forwards in attack closing the gap, and the pink girl leapt back dodging the powerful blow as the serpent's black head plunged into the ground unsettling dirt and cracking it slightly. I have to get rid of this thing, to even stand a chance…but how?

It lunged again, this time she dodged sideways by rolling out of the way, the snake recovered slightly quicker this time but she still managed to avoid the secondary attacks but getting to her feet as soon as it lunged again. This process was repeated a lot, until she leapt backwards away from the fast-slithering approaching snake and smashed her left fist against its scaled snout. Harry fell onto all fours holding back a cry of pain, as the snake disappeared in black wispy smoke, which dissipated soon enough.

Sakura engaged him in taijutsu. Both seemed to be getting tired half-way through their battle, Harry however appeared weaker at this point, panting for breath and his defensive stance looking as if one hit would shatter it. Sakura was strong, she raised her weapon to strike in the close combat, Harry smirked as her kunai cut a wound on his arm. She watched the blood dribble from his arm to a scroll at their feet she hadn't seen before.

The same snake from before reappeared, looking unscathed. "You didn't expect me to just give up Sakura? Sorry to disappoint such a pretty face."

Back where the two ninja team mates were that held the currently competing wizard-nin and kunoichi, Ron and Hermione were smiling. "This is his special move isn't it Herm?" Ron stated grinning at the younger genin. "She's going to be surprised."

Harry watched her dodging the snake with good agility, preparing to repeat the same way she defeated it before. She did so, smashing her fist sharply into its snout.

The snake didn't burst to smoke or evaporate in similar fashion. Its iridescent silver eyes swivelled like a drink after being stirred turning into green snake slits, she didn't move when the serpent laughed in a boy's voice, or feel the hands gripping her arms, all she could see was the snake reshaping, shrinking in a smooth movement like a stream from being a snake to Harry.

The Harry who had been standing there watching the battle turned out to be a clone. The one holding Sakura smirked; the pink-haired girl could feel her energy being drained. "Sweet dreams." The kunoichi went limp in his hold, he laid her down gently.

"Winner: Harry."

Naruto dashed out to the unconscious pink haired girl, Harry rejoined his friends…only to be met by their angry ninja parents. Harry's eyes darkened minimally. One day he'd show them he was nothing like Voldemort.

Right, just been pottering about on my profile, trying to get the hang of it. I'm exalted on that front that a person's favourited this and another reviewed. Just ONE person out of one hundred and eleven others…it makes me feel…insignificant. But the others who still did something like alerts and favourited-ness make me feel better. Eh. I feel like I'm complaining. But anyhow, thanks to "rockrock" for reviewing!
