Chapter.2

Even though he had gone to bed very late last night, due to the celebration party being held for Harry Naruto had been the first to wake up out the all the boys in the dormitory. Sitting up in his bed Naruto found a trunk, a neatly folded pile of black clothes, and a note at the end of his new four poster bed. Quickly getting out of bed he reached for the note.

Dear Mr. Uzumaki

Enclosed with this note Is a list of your needed school supplies on top of your new school trunk you will find a set of new robs to hold you over till you get your new school uniform later today so get changed and head down to the great hall and enjoy your breakfast and I meet you this morning.

Sincerely yours

Albas Dumbledore

Reading the letter over on more time Naruto took his new clothes and headed for the dorm room showers to get ready. By the time, he was showered and dressed rest of his teens in the dorm were starting to get up when he headed down to the common room. Reaching the bottoms of the stairs Naruto saw a few students heading out the portrait hole.

"Good morning Naruto how was your first night in Gryffindor tower." Hermione Happily askes as she put towns the large book she had been reading a moment ago, before Naruto had walked in to the common room.

"Oh man, it was great I've never slept in a bed that nice in my entire life, and I got new clothes." Naruto happily said as he put his arms to his sides and did a quick spin to show Hermione his new robs.

"That's wonderful Naruto." Hermione said glad that Naruto was happy being in Gryffindor, but was a little put out by what Naruto had told her.

"Why'll we wait for Harry and Ron I thought we could start working on your lessons." Hermione said eagerly as she picked her book up again and sat down on one of the plush couches by the firer place motioning for Naruto to do the same on the opposite side of her. Eager to start learning magic Naruto took his seat.

"Now I know you don't have your wand yet, but not all of magic is wand work. So, I thought a good place to start would be magical theory and practical applications." Hermione said as she opened her book and started to read out of the standard book of spells grade one. Naruto forced a smile and enthusiasm at the thought of having to sit through a lecture. Luckily from him Hermione was so excited at teaching she didn't notice forced smile Naruto was putting on.

"Charms differ from Transfiguring Spells in the following manner: a charm adds certain properties to an object or creature, whereas a transfiguring spell will change it into something utterly different. The lesser charms are not very difficult to break and many of those that you learn as a young wizard will wear off in a matter of days or even hours. Dark charms are known as jinxes, hexes and curses. This book does not deal with such spells. Lapses in concentration while charming can result in painful side effects – remember Wizard Baruffio, who said 's' instead of 'f' and found himself lying on the floor with a buffalo on his chest." Hermione read out to Naruto who put in more effort than he ever did with Iruka sense to pay attention to what he was being told.

"Wait if I say 's' a boffolo thing will land on me." Naruto said now felling very worried about saying the letter 's'. Hearing this Hermione couldn't help but start to giggle a little at what Naruto had said.

"No, no it just means that when your preforming your spells it is very important to enunciate the world. Hermione told the now very relived Naruto. However, the rest of what the Hermione had to say was cut short when Harry and Ron came done from the boy's dormitory.

"Hey, good morning you guys." Naruto said to the other two boys, however Harry and Ron were still a bit hesitant to get along with the blond. Even though Naruto was a nice enough guy Harry still couldn't shake off what he had seen. It not every day you see someone that close to a dragon's mouth. Ron on the other hand was treating Naruto as if he was a Slytherin. Not of this seemed to bother Naruto in the slightest since he could be very oblivious at times to the most obvious things. Hermione being the brighter witch in her year was quickly able to notice the off behavior of her two friends.

"Let's head down to the great hall I'm starving." Ron said as he headed towards the portrait hole completely ignoring Naruto.

"Yeah good thinking I could heat too." Naruto said quickly going after Ron with Harry and Hermione fallowing him. By the time the four teens had made it to the great hall there were only a few minutes left for them to get some breakfast. Due to the fact that Naruto kept stopping to ask questions about the castle and Hermione having memorized Hogwarts a history was telling him everything she had read.

"This is the great hall students eat their meals, receive daily owl post, and have certain special events here. The ceiling enchanted to look like the sky above these are the house tables and at the end is the teachers table." Hermione finished off her little tour of the school. Naruto was still looking around the great hall in amazement when they sat down to eat. Why'll Harry, Ron, and Hermione were quickly filling their plates with food Naruto looked around hesitant at all the new and different food in front of him eggs and meat he was used to, but some of the things in front of him looked bizarre.

"What's the matter Naruto, aren't you hungry." Asked Harry as he helped himself to some eggs and bacon. Naruto remembering what Dumbledore had told him yesterday about fitting in quickly severed himself a plate of eggs.

"So, what are you guys doing today?" Naruto asked through a mouth full of egg, earning a look of disapproval from Hermione.

"We'll be in class till the afternoon." Ron answered back through his mouth full of bacon, also earning a look of disapproval from Hermione.

"Is that all you get to do just go to class all the time?" Naruto asked wondering if agreeing to stay was such a good idea.

"Well not we do have class but not all day and we get the weekend off and there's Hogsmeade weekends from time to time and quidditch." Harry answered

"Great what's a hogmade?" Naruto asked looking to Hermione for the answer.

"Not hogmade Naruto Hogsmeade. is the only all-wizarding village in Britain. It was founded by Hengist of Woodcroft since before 1714. It was many different shops and its own owl post office." Hermione happily having already become accustom to being Naruto's go to well of knowledge.

"Hey maybe that where the old man is going to take me today." Naruto said as he fished out the letter he had received this morning and handing it over to Hermione.

"Wait what old man is taking you to Hogsmeade." Ron asked as and Harry tried to read the letter Hermione was pouring over.

"I believe that the old man Mr. Uzumaki is refusing to is none other than me Mr. Weasley." Said Albus Dumbledore, who had walked over to the grope from the staff table.

"Oh, hey old man, did you know there's some all-wizard village is that where we're going." Naruto happily exclaimed completely oblivious to the looks of disbelief he was getting from not just Harry and Ron, but everyone in earshot at how he was talking to the headmaster.

"Naruto, you can't talk to the headmaster like that." Hermione said as she offered apologies for the blond boy. Who still didn't understand what he had said to upset the bushy haired girl.

"It's quite alright Miss. Granger, yes Naruto I am aware of Hogsmeade however our destination today will be Diagon ally." Dumbledore said

"Great, alright well I guess I'll see you guys later than." Naruto said as he got up from the Gryffindor table and exited the great hall with the Hogwarts headmaster with many bewildered looks fallowing him along the way.

"Aright you can't tell me that wasn't strange." Ron said after the two had gone. Harry only nodded in agreement at his friend, why'll Hermione remained none responsive.

"Look Hermione you told us what McGonagall told you, I'm telling you somethings not right with that guy." Ron said. Harry still couldn't get what he had seen out of his head Ron was right there was something off about Naruto Uzumaki.

Outside the castle, Naruto and Dumbledore were now walking down the school lawn heading for the front gates.

"Tell me Naruto how do you find yourself being at Hogwarts so far." Dumbledore asked as the passed the anchored Durmstrang ship in the black lake.

"Oh, it great last night there was a party for Harry." and with that Naruto dove in to an explanation of what had happened last Night. Mainly he had spent his night watching the antics of the Weasley twins and all the cleaver ways he avoided questions on himself. Once they finally reached the front gate Dumbledore placed his arm out for Naruto to grab.

"Grab a hold Naruto were about to apparate to Diagon alley." Doing as he was told once Naruto had a hold of Dumbledore arm he felt a sharp tug and a second later he found himself the middle of long cobblestone alley full of funny dressed men and women. There were shops selling robes, shops selling telescopes and strange silver instruments Naruto had never seen before, windows stacked with barrels of bat spleens and eels' eyes, tottering piles of spell books, quills, and rolls of parchment, potion bottles, globes of the moon. Naruto was amazed at everything around him, he wanted to run around form shop to shop. Just then Dumbledore started to walk down the alley.

"First things first Naruto, we must visit Gringotts and procure you some gold." Dumbledore said as he pointed out to Naruto the imposing snow-white multistoried marble building located partway down Diagon Alley. Naruto looked ahead and saw the only building that towered over the neighboring shops. Once they hand made in down the alley and stepped inside Naruto looked around amazed at all the strange creatures sitting behind tall desk.

"Goblins Naruto they are the ones entrusted with the running of Gringotts Bank." Dumbledore said as they walked up to and open teller box.

"Good after noon I would like to set up Mr. Uzumaki as part of the annual Hogwarts student allowance." Dumbledore said as he pulled out a long piece of parchment from within his long purple robs. The goblin behind the desk just started to look through the paper why'll Dumbledore addressed Naruto's unanswered question.

"This I something that has been in place by the schools bored of governors for a long time, it a fund set aside for students attending Hogwarts who haven't the means to purchasing the most basic of their school things." Right away Naruto know that this was, just like in Konoha it was an orphans fund."

"The boy will need to sign." Said the goblin as it passed the paper over to Naruto a long quill clutched in its long spider leg like fingers. A little hesitant Naruto took the quill and quickly signed his name. not long after that he and Dumbledore left the bank and were back in Diagon alley heading from shop to shop getting all of Naruto school supplies' and robs. All in all, there took a considerable amount of time getting everything due to Naruto stopping at every shop window to see what was on display.

"Well this is our last stop Ollivanders finest wand makers England." Dumbledore said as stepped forward and held the door open for Naruto who was busy holding all his school things. Once inside Naruto saw that the shop was tiny, empty except for a single, spindly chair in the corner. Thousands of narrow boxes containing wands were piled right up to the ceiling of the tiny shop, and the whole place had a thin layer of dust about it. Setting his things on the chair Naruto eagerly moved up to the counter and energetically began to ring that small bell on it. An old man was standing before them having made his way from the back of the shop, his wide, pale eyes shining like moons through the gloom of the shop directly in to Naruto's blue ones. Right away Naruto felt himself become very uncomfortable at how intently the man was looking at him.

"Albus Dumbledore I was expecting you all morning, I see you've brought me another." Mr. Ollivander said as he finally took his eye off Naruto to address the Hogwarts headmaster.

"Yes, this is Naruto Uzumaki, Naruto this is Garrick Ollivander." Dumbledore said as he pulled out his wand and drew himself a chair out of thin air taking a seat. for good reason, too because the next two hours turned in to Ollivander handing Naruto a wand before quickly snatching it out of his hand. However just when Naruto was losing hope about ever getting a wand for his own Ollivander handed him a long, pale gray colored wand with sight faded unfinished geometric pattern lightly inscribed in to its handle. Just having it in his hand Naruto felt a warm rushing felling going through his whole body. Lifting his arm up he quickly brought the wand down in a diagonal arch that filled the shop with a brilliant electric blue light.

"Excillent job Naruto, I know you could do it." Dumbledore said letting out a sigh of relief that the boy could use a wand.

"A tricky customer indeed and what a combination Elder 10 ½ inches tricky to master. With thunderbird tail feather to boot. Albus I take it that this wizard is marked out for a special destiny is he not." Ollivander said eerily as he took the wand back from Naruto and placed it back in its box before wrapping up in brown parchment paper. All Dumbledore did however was look back at Ollivander through his half-moon glasses a knowing look in his eyes as he paid for the wand. Once out of the shop Dumbledore instructed Naruto to grab hold of his arm and they apparated back to the front gates of Hogwarts.

Harry, Ron, and Hermione were done with their classes for the day and were now sitting at the Gryffindor table in the Great Hall eating the supper when Naruto along with professor Dumbledore walked in. The trio looked over at the blond as he quickly said his goodbye to the headmaster and made a b-line to them.

"why is he coming over here. there's plenty of places to sit." Ron said as he continued to eat his food. This got him a sharp jab in the side by Hermione's elbow

"stop it Ron." Hermione said as she moved over for Naruto to join them.

"Hey you guy just got back with Dumbledore from getting all my school stuff." Naruto said happily and quickly dove in to his retelling of his day events. Finishing off his story to Ollivander wand shop.

"Here check it out." Naruto said as he handed out his wand for them to see. Hermione and Harry looked at is very interested and just as Harry was about to reach a hand out and take hold of it Ron quickly shouted for him to stop.

"Harry don't touch it, that wand is cursed." Ron said in a very serious voice, still giving the wand and Naruto a wide birth. Whoever when his friend looked at him funny he elaborated.

"His wand it's an Elder wand. Wand of Elder, wizard never prosper. There bad luck wands." Ron finished

"Honestly Ron, who told you that nonsense." Hermione said as Naruto put his new wand away

"look I'm telling you don't trust that wand or him." Ron said as he pointed to Naruto. This got Naruto mad he hadn't done anything to the boy

"Hey what's your problem." Naruto said now sitting up staring down Ron.
"Ron that enough, both of you calm down" Harry said as he places a hand on Ron's shoulder trying to calm his friend down. However, Ron just shock Harrys and off and pointed a finger at Naruto.

"Who are you trying to fool Harry saw you show up out of nowhere in that red light and he was you with the dragon." Ron said satisfied at finally exposing what Naruto was hiding. However, is ego was quickly deflated when Naruto lost the anger and sat back down looking relived.

"Oh, that what your mad about. Yeah that was me I would have told you guy, but Dumbledore told me not to tell anyone. If Harry saw I don't think he'll mind, then yeah, I showed up in that red light but I don't really know how and the dragon all I did was pet it. It looked really cool it was scared so I thought petting it would calm it down." Naruto said glad that he hadn't done anything wrong this new world sure did have a lot of rules in it he thought. why'll Naruto served himself some food on to his plate Harry, Ron, and Hermione were looking back at each other than to Naruto. Finally, Harry asked the question that had been bothering him since yesterday.

"Naruto if you don't mind me asking where are you from exactly. Harry asked the eating blond. to which Naruto without missing a beat answered

"Another world."
