A.N.
I still can't believe I actually have posted this haha. Please Review. I'd like to know what people think other than my friends who have forceably read this haha. Or you can P.M. me.
Also I am working on the cover photo for this. Should I draw her in her Shinobi attire or Her Hogwarts uniform? Also I want to apologize for Hagrid being ooc last chapter. It's been a while since I read the book and I will mostly follow the book (which is one of the reasons I havent updated in a week) I actually couldn't find my book that I thought I had. I ended up having to go and buy it... And now I have two copies of the first book -_-...
Disclaimer I do not own Naruto or Harry Potter... If I did (or if i had a job period) would have serveral new games right now.
And without further a dew...
Claudia had woke up early prepared for early start. She was currently waiting in her room for Hagrid and Harry. She had been sitting on the bed working on chakra concentration, though she was dozing off mainly, when she heard a knock on her door. She jumped up and to the yanked it open.
"Well good morning there Claudia!" Hagrid said cheerfully. Harry stood behind looking more awake than Claudia.
"Morning Hagrid, Harry," she said with a smile, though she was thinking along the lines of Stupid morning people.
"Are you ready to go and get your supplies?" Hagrid asked her. She nodded.
"Yeah. Just let me get my bag and I'll be ready." She said then turned around, ran back in the room and grabbed her bag. She then ran out and locked the door behind her.
"We're gonna have breakfast first." Hagrid said.
Claudia let herself fall into step with Harry. She had thought all night about and figured that it would be best to be friends with Harry in order to protect him. He seem like an interesting person to be friends, just like Naruto. She wasn't that close to Naruto, having only seen him getting in trouble a couple times. Of course she had heard of him. He was Konoha's biggest trouble maker. She could say she helped him pull a prank once. Maybe after this mission she would try to be friends with him, too.
Harry looked over to Claudia to find her apparently lost in thought, with a smile slowly spreading across her face.
"So Claudia, do you come from the wizarding world?" Harry asked. Claudia looked at him.
"No, both my parents are.. Umm.. Muggles." She replied.
"Oh, so this all new to you too?"
"Yeah, it's all new." She said with a small smile.
"Hey, did you read they let you have a pet if you want?" Claudia asked him.
"Yeah, I read that they allow you to have either an owl, cat, or toad."
"Toad?" Claudia bursts out laughing causing both Hagrid and Harry to look at her strangely. "S-sorry, b-but..." She couldn't even began to finish her sentence, for all she could imagine was a certain gigantic summoning as a pet. She was picturing Gambunta wearing a bow.
"Are you okay?" Hagrid asked. After she seemed to have calmed down.
"Yeah, sorry 'bout that, but if you knew what I was thinking you would've done the same.." She said giggling towards the end.
They sat down at a table towards the back of the leaky cauldron. After they ordered Harry looked over the table at her.
"What?" She asked him slightly irritated.
"Sorry, but umm.. Why couldn't your parents take you get you school supplies? Why does Hagrid?"
If Claudia hadn't been a trained all her life not to show emotions her eyes would've went wide.
"Well," she paused hopefully making it look like she was trying to remember instead of coming up with something to say.
"T-they weren't too open with idea of being around a whole bunch of magical weir- err people, and they had a trip to America planned." She explained/ lied coolly. The food they had ordered was brought out to them somewhat magically automatically fascinating and distracting both of them.
"Are you ready to go get yer school stuff?" Hagrid asked them once they were finished eating.
Harry nodded.
"Yeah," Claudia said.
Hagrid stood up and walked towards the back of the bar with both of them following him. Hagrid had led them into a small walled courtyard.
"Umm… Hagrid? Where are we going? There's nothing here but a trashcan." Claidia asked Hagrid who seemed to be counting the bricks above the trash can. Hagrid muttered something.
"Right, stand back you two." He then tapped the wall a few times, it quivered and then started turning into an arch way.
"Welcome to Diagon Alley." Hagrid said grinning at Harry and Claudia's amazement.
Claudia found herself looking in every direction, trying to take in as much as possible. She had never seen so much... Well magic, but her thoughts were more along the lines of weird. After a few minutes of walking she noticed a bit white building she, which she automatically assumed to be their destination. They walking past a broom shop where she noticed a bunch of boys admiring a broom stick in the window.
"H-Hagrid why are they admiring a broomstick?" Claudia asked.
Hagrid looked at her with a slightly surprised expression. "Yer fly on 'em. Play a sport called quittich with 'em." Hagrid explained like it was the most logical thing.
"Oh..." Claudia looked over at Harry who seemed to not have heard them, for he was still looking at every shops they were passing.
They were following a goblin named Griphook. They would be going to Harry's vault and another vault that seemed to be super-secret Hogwarts business. Which greatly intrigued the young kunoichi. She was mainly wondered if it would be part of her mission. Claudia made a mental note to ask professor Dumbledore next time she saw him or could speak with him privately.
They got in in a small cart, as the cart hurtled down the track Claudia tried not to freak out, even though she's a kounochi she had noticed that the cart appeared to be driving itself and going fairly fast she had a feeling that the cart had no one would help if she suddenly went flying out of the cart. She gripped the rail on the cart tighter as the cart made a sharp turn.
Claudia had shut her eyes tight as they plunged deeper, so she had no idea what they were passing. She heard harry ask Hagrid and Hagrid reply but she hadn't been able to pick up what they had said. She Then heard Hagrid speaking all she caught was "don' ask me questions now, I think I'm gonna be sick." She agreed with Hagrid on that she knew if she opened her eyes she might be herself.
When the cart suddenly stop. Claudia opened her eyes saw that they had stopped at a vault and Hagrid was leaning on a wall. She quickly jumped out of the cart to where she was standing directly behind Harry who had been standing behind Griphook who was unlocking the vault. Hagrid was staring at her wide eyed while Harry was staring at the inside of the vault.
"Uh..." Claudia said as she realized that jump wasn't the kind of jump anyone should make unless they were a shinobi.
Luckily it had only been Hagrid who saw it. Hagrid turned to the awestruck Harry telling him that all the money in the vault was his. Claudia now noticed exactly how much was in the was now standing next to Harry.
"Amazing." Claudia said in awe at all the gold, silver, and bronze columns.
"Your rich..." She added. Then she looked at Hagrid, then to Harry then back at the stack.
"At least you know can pay for your supplies," she said as Hagrid helped Harry some of it all into a bag.
After loading Harry's bag and explaining to Harry what was what Hagrid turned to her.
"Oh yeah you. I almost forgot here." He handed her a small bag of coins but more than enough for school supplies.
"That's from Professor Dumbledore. Said to give it to you," Hagrid added.
"Thank you. I was afraid I wouldn't have anything for school for a minute. I'll make sure to thank Professor Dumbledore when I see him next," Claudia said with a Naruto style grin.
Hagrid turned to Griphook.
"Right take us to Vault seven hundred and thirteen now, please, and can we go more slowly?" He asked. Hagrid noticed Claudia's Hopeful/relived look.
"One speed only." Griphook said. Claudia audibly groaned as she climbed back into the cart.
Claudia had kept her eyes shut all the way to the vault. Though she could tell they had gone deeper by the change of temperature. She looked at the door to the vault she could tell from her seated position in the cart that it had no keyhole, making her wonder if it had seal.
Griphook then slid his finger over the door and it disappeared. Then Griphook went on about if someone other than a goblin tried to open the vault they'd get sucked in, and most likely wouldn't be found for ten years due to being trapped inside the vault.
Claudia had decided to get a closer look since they had the attention on the vault she once again jumped from the cart landing directly behind Harry. Then she managed to get a peek of the small package wrapped in brown paper it was lying on floor Hagrid quickly swept it up putting it in deep into his coat.
Harry jumped when he noticed Claudia beside him peering into the vault.
"I thought you were staying in the cart." Hagrid said. She then craned her head up at him.
"I was but I had to see what you were getting in there sorry. I was curious," She said cheerfully.
Hagrid looked at her and slightly nodded then speaking.
"Come on, back to this infernal cart, and don't talk to me on the way back its best I keep my mouth shut." Hagrid said.
"Yeah same here." She said groaned.
"This thing ain't natural. I'd almost prefer Isamu sensei's special training exercises," she muttered.
Claudia went momentarily blind when they stepped outside. She could tell Harry and Hagrid had too.
"Might as well get yer uniforms." Hagrid said nodding towards a shop thats sign read Madam Malkin's Robes for all occasions.
"Would you two mind if I slipped off to fer a pick me up at the Leaky Cauldron? I hate them Gringotts carts." They could tell he still looked a bit sick, Claudia could tell Harry was nervous to be going to madam malkins alone. She look Hagrid and spoke for both of them.
"Don't worry Harry I'm coming with you, and go get yourself feeling better Hagrid we'll be fine." Claudia said comfortably as if everything would be okay. Even though she was silently freaking out about being alone in a foreign element without a fellow shinobi. She looked at Harry.
"Well let's get this over with, okay?" She asked. Harry nodded
"Okay." He felt slightly better now that he wouldn't have to go in there alone.
As they walked in a lady witch who Claudia assumed was Madam Malkin asked.
"Hogwarts, dears?" When Harry and Claudia both started to speak. She interrupted them.
"Got the lot- Another young man being fitted up just now, in fact."
Claudia raised her eyebrow, that was obscured by her hair, slight peeved that the lady hadn't given the chance to reply to the question that she had asked.
Madam Malkin led them to the back of the shop where they saw a pale boy with blondish white hair, or at least that's the color Claudia defined it as. Madam Malkin motioned to a stool as another lady came out to help Claudia.
Then Madam Malkin stood Harry on a stool and put a robe on head and began to pin it.
The boy in there began to talk to both Harry and Claudia.
"Hello. Hogwarts, too?" the boy asked
"Yes" said Harry. The boy looked at Claudia.
"Yeah, where else would I go?" she said.
"My father's next door buying my books and mother's up the street looking at wands," the boy said in a bored tone of voice, "Then I'm going to drag them off to look at racing brooms. I don't see why first years can't have their own. I think I'll bully father into getting me one and smuggling it in somehow."
Claudia had no idea what Harry was thinking but couldn't help raising an eyebrow.
"I'm sure they have a perfectly good reason why not. I can only imagine if a friend of mine had broom his first year, what would happ-" as she spoke she knew exactly what would Happen if Kazuki had a broom.
"Never mind actually I know exactly what would happen and let me say it most likely would not be pretty..." She trailed off scared of what her hyper team mate would be like if he found about flying broomsticks.
The boy laughed at the almost petrified Claudia. Who was now back to the 'ramen incident' in her mind.
"Do either of you have your own broom?" the boy asked.
"No." Harry said. "Huh? Oh n-no." Claudia said coming back to the real world she shivered slightly.
"Play Quidditch at all?" the boy.
"No." Harry said.
The boy looked at Claudia.
"Oh. Hmm... nope..." She said trailing off.
"I do father says it's a crime if I'm not picked to play for my house, and I must say, I agree. Know what house you'll be in yet?" Claudia was about to go nuts…
"No" Harry said.
"I have no Idea.. If anything I hope for the same house as someone I know. I guess," she said.
"Well, no one really knows until they get there, do they, but I know I'll be in Slytherin, all our family have been. Imagine being in Hufflepuff, I think I'd leave, wouldn't you?"
"Mmm" was all Harry said or made a noise. Claudia on the other hand was getting irritated and decided to be random and improvise.
Gasping like it sounded awful she said to the boy.
"Sounds absolutely horrid.. But I betcha I could live through it though," she said finishing in utterly bored sounding tone.
Then the boy freaked out nodding to Hagrid. The boy then tried down grading Hagrid.
To which Harry told him that Hagrid was Gamekeeper of Hogwarts. She could tell Harry was liking the boy less and less. She honestly could say she didn't care she had dealt with his type before. And they had been the ones to quit the academy most if the time at least it was in her years there.
The boy then went on to try and make Hagrid out to be a savage. While Claudia was trying to contain the laughter that wanted to escape so badly. She could not picture Hagrid as a savage no matter what the situation.
"I think he's brilliant." Harry said.
"Do you?" he asked both of them with a slight sneer. "And why is he with you? Where are both your parents?"
"They're dead." Harry said shortly. Claudia was so peeved she slipped up.
"Like hell if I know. I haven't seen them in a long time." That was a lie in reality Claudia had no memories of her parents or family she knew she had had them but couldn't remember. And no one would answer her questions. Only ever telling she'd remember in time.
"Oh sorry." The boy said insincerely. "But they were our kind weren't they?"
"They were a witch and wizard if that's what you mean," Harry said.
"I think they are, They've always been super secretive.. At least from what I know. Umm.. Don't let people know much about us.." Claudia said trying her best to cover her mistake.
Harry caste her a side glace.
'Just go with it I want to see where he goes with this' she mouthed to Harry who nodded. Luckily the boy hadn't noticed their exchange.
"I really don't think they should let the other sort in, do you? They're just not the same, never been brought up to know our ways. Some of them have never even heard of Hogwarts until they got their letter, imagine. I think they should keep it in the old wizarding families. What's your Surnames anyway?"
Luckily before they could answer. Madam Maklin told Harry she was done and almost immediately after the lady who had been working on Claudia's suddenly told her they were finished.
"Well see you two at Hogwarts I suppose." the boy said.
Hagrid had brought them ice cream. He hand her a chocolate one just chocolate. Which Claudia was staring at it as if was magic.
"Is this for me?" She asked. Causing both Hagrid and Harry to look at her weirdly.
"Of course. Have you never had ice cream?" Hagrid asked.
"I have, but it's been a long time and I can't remember who I was with when I had it. I.. I." She looked up smiling. Though Hagrid could tell the smile didn't fully reach her eyes.
"Thank you," she said.
