Naruto glared at their mission, and really that was all the boy was at the moment, their mission, which is the only reason he will remain in one piece, but mission or not, nothing will save him should he ever think to attack one of his precious comrades, be it physically with his magic or emotionally with his words. The mission was not more important then the lives of those he cared for. And at the end of the day the mission, is just that a mission but the well-being and sanity of his friends was irreplaceable.
"I would like to advice Potter-san to choose his words very carefully from this moment on." Icy blue eyes shone with a frozen inferno, "We won't take kindly to anymore of your disrespectful words." He hissed through gritted teeth, eyes flashing red. "You should know that we've killed people for far lesser transgression then being insulted."
Itachi placed a hand on the blonds head, "I would listen to him if I were you Potter-san. I've fought in several wars and many battles since I was even younger then you." Cold, heated pitch black eyes narrowed, "And Fox was born during one. He lived and was raised knowing nothing but warfare and fighting, He might be younger then you by several years, but that doesn't matter. A war isn't won by a single person. These people have made you arrogant to think that " The words were cold and caused several of the members to shiver. "Fox was just like you, the prophesized savior, but he didn't let that get to his head. He knew he couldn't save his home and the people he cared for by himself. he needed help, and he never turned down anyone willing to offer it to him, even if he didn't particularly like the person offering it. So my advice to you, Potter-san, is to trend very carefully with your words."
Harry sneered, but stopped when Sirius shot a glare at him, "Enough Harry. I listened to you rant for days before these two arrived to help us fight against Lord Voldemort." Several of the occupants shivered at the name, but Sirius ignored it as he narrowed his eyes, "You need to understand these people are strong and not only are they protecting you but the entire school as well. You need to stop thinking only about yourself, Harry, not everything is about you." Naruto and Itachi glanced at each other, a silent message being exchanged between the two, which went unnoticed by the other occupants in the room. "There is a whole school, filled with children ranging from 11-17 who will, with no doubt, appreciate the protection and it won't do for you to alienate them because of your personal feelings against being treated as a child."
Harry took a step back, staring at his godfather in surprise. Sirius had never spoken to him like that before and he didn't know how he should feel about it. Glancing towards the two masked men, green eyes narrowed, "But by placing guards on me, you are treating me like a child. I'm 14, I don't need any baby-sitters."
"The way your acting Potter-san, I beg a differ." Itachi folded his arms behind his back, his eyes were hard and unrelenting in it's coldness, "Instead of accepting the help like an adult would, you choose to act childish and throw a tantrum. If you wanted to prove you weren't a child, you did it in the worst way possible. All you did was show us that you are what you claim you aren't. A child."
Naruto nodded his head, "I might be physically younger then you are Potter-san, but emotionally and psychologically, we are far older then you. We grew up fighting. As Crow stated, I grew up during the beginnings of a war that was taking place where we live. Just recently we were finally able to defeat those who had sought to enslave our countries. Crow, grew up during a previous war, and fought during the beginning and end of what we call the fourth great war, so don't stand there and whine about being treated as a child, at least you had a semblance of a childhood, we didn't. So don't you dare stand there and accuse us of being the child when the only thing we did was accept the offer your headmaster made with our leader."
Itachi run his fingers down the agitated blonds arm, "Our leader could have denied your headmasters plea for help, but in good faith she left our home vulnerable in order to help not only your school, but two others." Red eyes glinting with an ominous light, scaring the younger witches and wizards, "You can stand there and tell as over and over how you're not a child but it won't change anything, we will still be guarding the school."
Molly cleared her throat, nervous, "How about some breakfast and a quick introduction, hm." the plump redhead smiled, "My name is Molly Weasley and this is my husband Arthur Weasley." she motioned towards a red headed man, who reeked of kindness, which eased Naruto an Itachi a bit.
Arthur nodded with a smile, "So ninjas, huh, if we have time afterwards, I would very much like to ask you some questions about what you do and how old one must be to be considered an adult. I've noticed in different culture, adults can be any age."
From behind his mask Naruto smiled at the enthusiastic man and gave a small nod at his statement, "Sounds reasonable enough, then maybe you can share some stuff about wizards in exchange."
Arthur smiled and agreed wholeheartedly, excited over the prospect of learning about shinobi's, "These are our kids. The twins are George and Fred, the other male is Ronald, Ron for short and our daughter is Ginevra, we call her Ginny."
"I'm Harry's godfather, Sirius Black. Someone else will be arriving a little later, his name is Remus Lupin." The shaggy haired male stated, glancing towards the elderly man, "I'm sure you know Albus Dumbledore, the headmaster."
Naruto nodded his head, "My comrade is known as Karasu, translated over will mean Crow or Raven, he answers to either and I'm known as Kitsune, or Fox. We will be the ones in charge of protecting the school and making sure your Harry stays out of trouble."
Harry scowled at that comment, green eyes narrowed, "Crow and Fox. We're suppose to trust our lives to a bunch of people who have animal names." The boy would have continued had he not been stopped by a firm yet gentle hand grasping his shoulder.
"Calm yourself Harry." At the sound of his voice, all eyes turned towards the man standing behind the annoyed fourteen year old. "Crow and Fox are codenames. not actually their names; like an alias, if you will. And in their culture it's the highest honor when you achieve this level of skill, so we should be grateful for the assistance that they are offering us."
Crow and Fox stared at the man, "You seem to know a lot about us. How?"
"Let's just say, I know someone that use to live in the Elemental Nations, but due to circumstance he doesn't feel like he should return. Maybe one day you will meet him. He doesn't venture off much, and no one here has ever meant the man, but maybe if he heard you were here, he'll come around." The man smiled, bowing, "I forgot to introduce myself. Excuse the rudeness! My name is Remus Lupin and I'm very pleased to meet the both of you."
Retuning the bow, Fox and Crow voiced their own greeting, "We're pleased to meet you as well and I speak for myself and Crow when I say. we can't wait to be acquainted with this friend of yours." Lupin smiled and turned his attention towards Sirius and greeted his old time friend, who stood up and envelope the werewolf in a hug. "Kawaii, ne." Fox's smile went unseen as he glanced at his partner, eyes gleaming.
"Aa." Crow turned his attention towards Dumbledore, "If this is all you require of us, sir, then Fox and I shall take our leaves now." At the headmasters nod, Fox and Crow bowed their heads and flashed out of the room, leaving several speechless people in their wake.
Ron blinked. "Bloody hell, that was brilliant." he murmured.
Time skip First day of School The sorting hat ceremony Great Hall
They had been here for nearly a month now, and finally the start of the school would begin. The past week, the group going in undercover as students, had been busy purchasing everything that they needed in order to blend in, while Kakashi was given books and learning material he needed to help a guy named Alastor Moody teach Defense Against the Dark Arts.
They watched as the older students entered and sat at their house, greeting old friends while the first years were ushered to the front. As the sorting began, the hall got quiet, before cheers would pierce the room every time a new student was added to that house; well, everyone except Slytherin, which was understood, they didn't look like the type that would openly cheer like that.
When all the students were sorted, Dumbledore stood from his seat and introduced the new teachers along with reciting the rules for the school term. "Alright, now, I know all of you must be hungry but I have several more announcements first." At those words, the shinobi's straightened up, "I'm pleased to welcome some exchange students. They have come to us from Mahoutokoro, the magical school located in Japan; in fact, your new assistant DADA professor is also a transfer from the school and had been these students teacher for some time, so without any further delay, let's bring in our Japanese transfers and get them sorted shall we."
The doors of the Great Hall opened allowing nine students, each varying in age, to enter. As the group walked towards the front, whispers broke free, along with the sound of wolf whistles and squeals. Reaching the stool, an older lady met them, in her hand was a worn out looking blue hat, "Welcome, let's start with Shino Aburame. Third year student."
Stepping forward, Shino took a seat on the stool, ignoring the urge to flinch when the woman in green placed the sorting hat on his head; moments later, a voice echoed within his mind, 'Your one of those guards that Dumbledore has hired to protect the students. Let's see which house you'll be most suited for, shall we. Hm, I see, you are loyal and patient to those you feel deserve it. You're loyal to the leader of your village and your family, but you have more loyalty towards this Naruto person. He's someone you will follow with no hesitation, and if the occasion calls for it, you will even lay your life down for him. And you value hardwork and fair play, which makes you a good choice for Hufflepuff; yet, your also very cunning and resourceful, a perfect Slytherin potential, but above those two you appreciate intelligence and wit. You also have a thirst for knowledge, and because of that, I believe it will be best to place you in...'
"Ravenclaw!" The students dressed in blue and bronze stood up and roared their approval, always pleased when another student joined their house. Shino got to his feet when the hat was removed from his head, and he silently made his way towards the banner depicting an eagle.
Professor McGonagall rose the parchment, reading off the next name, "Neji Hyuga, he will be joining the fourth year class." Heading to the stool, the Hyuga took a seat, ignoring the many squeals he could hear from the females. As soon as the hat was on his head, he was encased in darkness.
'Interesting mind you have here. You have qualities that would make you fit right in with the Slytherin house and Gryffindor, yet, the one that stands out the most is your intelligence, and knowledge. I know just where to put you...'
"Ravenclaw!" Once again the students stood up and cheered as Neji approached their table, taking a seat beside Shino who nodded his head. not surprised to see the Hyuga had been sorted into this particular house.
As the cheers calmed, the transfiguration professor cleared her throat and stared at the parchmen't once more, "Will Kiba Inuzuka please come up here. He is entering into the third year class." she called out, glancing at the group. A brunet with wild hair and brown eyes bounded towards the front of the room, plopping himself on the stool and waited, impatiently, as the blue hat was placed on his head. "Gryffindor!" was the shout, surprising majority of the students; that had been one of the fastest sorting yet.
Naruto smiled, "Looks like we found the one who will be keeping an eye on the brat!"
Haku returned the smile while Sasuke and Shisui smirked, and Itachi nodded his head. It was safe to say that when Itachi and Naruto had returned from the burrow that day Dumbledore had introduced Harry to the guards, they had relay everything to the group, and they all hadn't been too please by the things that Potter had been saying.
"Haku Momochi! Fifth year!"
With a smile, the feminine male walked towards the seat, seemingly ignoring the cat calls and hooting the males were giving off. If only they knew he was in fact a male and not a female, as he figured majority of them would think. 'Interesting mind you have. You have the characteristics that will make you good for Gryffindor and Ravenclaw, yet your hard work, patience, unyielding loyalty and your belief in fair play makes you perfect for...' "Hufflepuff!" As the hat was removed from his head, Haku stood and made his way towards the students in yellow and black who were all standing and cheering for him.
"Shikamaru Nara! Third year!"
Sighing, the Nara heir muttered a 'troublesome' beneath his breath as he slouched his way towards the stool. And just like Kiba, the hat was barely on his head for five seconds when it called out, "Ravenclaw!" Once again the blue and bronze house were on their feet, cheering, welcoming the new student as he made his way towards both Neji and Shino. As he approached, Neji rolled his eyes and gently poked the younger brunet in the arm in annoyance at the lazy ones attitude.
"Shisui Uchiha! Sixth year!"
Smiling pleasantly, the older of the three Uchiha present, walked towards the stool and sat down with a flourish, grinning at the squeals. He would never date any girls, but that didn't mean he wouldn't flirt with them a little. Itachi, Sasuke and Naruto rolled their eyes at the older males attitude. 'You're another one who would be able to fit into all of the houses, but there is one house that you belong in above the others...' "Slytherin!"
As the hat was raised, Shisui got to his feet and made his way towards the table with the green and silver. They weren't as enthusiastic as the other houses, but he knew this was his house because it was the only one that hadn't been previously called.
"Sasuke Uchiha! Third year!"
Releasing a small grunt sound, the blue black haired teen made his way towards the seat, shooting a disgruntled look at the hat as it was placed on his head. 'Let's see what we have here... Cunning! You're very cunning. Hiding your real personality from this blond boy, who believes you're nothing like what others has claimed you to be. And because of that, and your resourcefulness, better make it... "Slytherin!"
Yanking the hat off his head, Sasuke dropped it on the seat, as he made his way towards Shisui, tossing a smile at Naruto as he passed the boy. "Good luck, Naru!"
"Itachi Uchiha! Fifth year!"
Without making a sound, the Uchiha heir glided towards the front and sat himself down, gracefully, paying no mind to the dramatic sighs and giggles he could hear being directed towards him. 'Loyal, very loyal a trait much appreciated amongst any Hufflepuff students, yet, you're very intelligent, a genius with a wit unmatched. And you're also brave of heart, willing to risk your lives for your friends and family. some thing that is very admirable; you could be placed in any of these houses, but, I feel you will fit in better with...' "Slytherin!"
"Bloody hell, that entire family had been placed in Slytherin." Ron muttered, watching as the stoic faced male walked towards his new house, "Must be one foul family." Harry and Hermoine gave nods of agreement.
Looking at the scroll in her hand, Professor McGonagall read the last name written on it, "And last, we have Naruto Uzumaki, a first year." As the petite blond made his way towards the stool, whispers broke free about the kid being in Hufflepuff because he was too adorable. Some claimed Ravenclaw because he looked like he'd be smart. There was even a couple who said he could be in Gryffindor, but not one of them thought that he'd ever make it into the house that he did.
'Interesting mind you've got, but, the last three had been just as. Your mind is a lot more difficult though as you fit perfectly into all of the houses, for you have every last quality. This will make placing you quite the conundrum.' The sorting hat started to hum a light tone as he struggled to make a decision. Taking pity on the old hat, Naruto told the hat which house he would want to be in, 'If you are sure, then I better make it...'
"Slytherin!" At that announcement, stunned silence enveloped the hall, as Naruto took the hat off and made his way towards the table where Shisui, Sasuke and Itachi stood up. Naruto smiled at the three and took a seat in between the Uchiha brothers and across from Shisui. He ignored the stunned silence and the numerous pairs of eyes that pierced his form. And when the surprise fled, the whispers began causing the shinobi's to roll their eyes.
Soft footsteps caused the Shinobi's to look towards the direction, watching as a silvery blond haired boy stop in front of them, well he was standing in front of the Uchiha brothers and Naruto while being beside Shisui. "Welcome to the Slytherin house; names Draco Malfoy, but I suppose in your country I'd be more like Malfoy, Draco." He greeted putting his hand out.
Naruto smiled and grasp the hand, "Nice to meet you, Malfoy-san. As you heard, my name is Uzumaki Naruto, but feel free to call me Naruto. These are my friends; Itachi, Sasuke and Shisui." The three nodded their heads when their names were uttered. "Let's be friends!"
Draco blinked his eyes in surprise before shrugging, "Okay. Let me introduce some of my other friends to you though." Turning he gestured to some people, who stood up and approached them. "This is Vincent Crabbe, Gregory Goyle, Pansy Parkinson and Blaise Zabini." Glancing towards his oldest friends Molfoy nodded his head, "I'm sure you heard their names, so we don't need a recap, but they're going to be hanging with us."
Pansy smiled and bounced towards Naruto and latched onto his arms, "That's great. I've always wanted to be friends with another girl." Naruto raised a brow and opened his mouth to tell the girl he wasn't a female when she waved her hand, "I know you're a boy, but your just so pretty, I can't help but think of you as a fellow girl." She stated flicking her hair off her shoulder. Her hard features softened a bit, causing her to appear a lot more approachable and friendly.
With a sigh, Naruto didn't bother to say anything to that. "Whatever." Turning his head away, the blond glanced at the other males and greeted them. Draco and Blaise took a seat beside Shisui and struck up a conversation with Naruto. Itachi, Sasuke and Shisui shared a bemused look, before glancing towards the two once more, it would seem Naruto made some new friends.
"...and with that, let the feast begin."
Tsuzuku
(To be continued)
Yes, Draco and Naruto are going to be close friends, a long with Blaise. Pansy will be a sister figure to Naruto and they will only be kind and out of character around Naruto, to everyone else they'll be their usual bastard selves.
I thought I made good choices for the houses I assigned the group to. And poor Kiba is the one chosen to baby sit Harry. The other schools make an appearance in the next chapter, so the Triwizard tournament will be starting soon.
Updates depends on how much Reviews I get.
