Review Responses

A Massive thank-you again to everyone following and reviewing this fic, as well as just reading it in general. I'm really happy that so many seem to enjoy it XD

Frankieu – This chapter will tell you exactly :)

TorturedGuitar – I'm not gonna lie, your review made me especially happy. I always try to be at least a little original in my fics, even though basically everything with Harry Potter/Naruto seems to have been done in one way or another. Your offer is very, very much appreciated XD. But don't worry, I won't be discontinuing. Occasionally there might be a period where I don't post for a while, but being how excited I am about this fic right now, it seems unlikely.

Igasho – Actually, I want to get Harry started on his affinity fairly quickly. Watching Kakashi's various skills and even Sasuke already having a nature transformation will make Harry realise he wants to learn more than just the Hyuga style of fighting. As for Hogwarts, I just need to get to a certain point in the Naruto storyline before I introduce him to the wizarding world.

Light Lord Cybergate – You've inadvertently stumbled onto what I couldn't remember to write in the notes on the last chapter . You're totally right, theres no mention of the seal not being able to be placed due to age. However I thought since the only person we've really seen the curse actually applied to was Neji (his father had it but we don't know when he got it) and Neji was so young, I thought I could twist the facts a bit.

As for the teams, I agree that Naruto with Sakura and Sasuke is overdone. However, a big part of the future plot of this novel absolutely relies on Team 7 having a bond just like they do in canon. Naruto's character will develop in much the same way that he does in canon actually.

MintMousse – I didn't really like taking away Harry's green eyes, but in this fic his eyes are just like the rest of the Hyuga clan. I figured the more important point about his eyes wasn't the fact that they were green, but that they were just like his mothers.

MythNephthys – So Im yet to settle on a pairing, so I really don't know whether it'll be het or slash. Being a gay male, I would prefer to write a slash fic, but only if it works within the context of the story. I also know that many people are uncomfortable reading slash fics, while nobody really complains about het. As it gets closer to a time where I would actually begin a relationship, I'll probably ask you guys for your opinions.

Jessicamathews65 – Naruto definitely realises, and feels guilty and stupid about it. But he's not the type at this point of his development to really talk about his shortcomings much. Hinata definitely won't be crushing on Harry though. They're really close, but just as siblings.

Chapter 2 – Team 7

"An odd number of graduates this year I see" Kakashi said, scanning the list of graduates that Iruka had prepared for them.

"Hmm, yes" Hiruzen said thoughtfully, smoking his pipe. "One of the squads will have to be four-man."

"A four person genin squad?" Kurenai questioned, stepping forward to read the list alongside Kakashi.

"It does happen every now and again under extenuating circumstances" Asuma supplied helpfully. "There was originally supposed to be only nine graduates this year, but after what happened with Mizuki and that Uzumaki kid the other night…" he trailed off.

"But doesn't that cause problems when it comes time for them to attempt the chunin exams? The exams are meant for three man teams only, right?" Kurenai asked curiously.

The third Hokage nodded slowly. "One of the four-man team will either have to temporarily join any two man teams that are available, say if someone is injured. If none is available, they will have to wait until the next set of exams."

Kakashi was still carefully examining the names on the list. Did any of these names have the potential to pass his test? He had never passed anyone before, and he was not going to start practicing leniency now, not even for the nine-tails jinchuriki or the last remaining Uchiha.

"So have you decided on the squads Lord Hokage?" Kakashi asked, his one visible eye on the old man.

Another puff of smoke rose from Hiruzen's pipe. "I believe so." Hiruzen reached for the scroll with the list of graduates. Kakashi handed it over.

"Kurenai" he said carefully. "The team I have picked out for you would be best suited for tracking and search missions, and in combat I think they would complement each other quite well. Kiba Inuzuka, Shino Aburame and Hinata Hyuga."

'A good tracking team indeed' Kakashi thought. 'Though I wonder why he chose Hinata over the other Hyuga graduate.'

"Hinata Hyuga? She's the heiress to the clan isn't she?" Kurenai asked, receiving a nod in response from the Hokage.

It was clear why she wanted to know. The care of the future of the Hyuga clan was now under her responsibility. It was a lot of pressure, especially considering how significant the Hyuga clan was to the Leaf village.

"Asuma. Your team will be made up of Ino Yamanaka, Shikamaru Nara and Choji Akamichi" Hiruzen continued, turning to his son. "The Ino-Shika-Cho formation was very effective for their fathers" he added.

Asuma raised an eyebrow. "That lazy Nara kid managed to graduate? Wonders never cease" he joked.

"Then that leaves me with the four-man squad" Kakashi said.

The Hokage nodded once more. "Sakura Haruno, Sasuke Uchiha, Naruto Uzumaki and Harry Hyuga."

Kakashi frowned slightly when he thought about who these genin actually were. It seemed an odd choice to put both Harry Hyuga and Sasuke Uchiha on the same squad. Normally the highest graded graduate would be placed with the lowest, hence Naruto's placement with one of them. But to put both highest marks together?

The Hokage must have guessed what he was thinking. "Initially, I had thought Harry might be better placed on one of the other two teams, perhaps even with his sister's squad. However, the team then would have been made up of just Sasuke, Naruto and Sakura. In theory, they would have made a well-balanced team on their own. In practice however, I think their personalities remind me too much of the genin team I once commanded."

Kakashi didn't know much about the three of them, but according to the report that Iruka had sent along with the list of graduates, there definitely seemed to be a certain similarity between them and the Legendary Sannin. Naruto the prankster, Sasuke the power obsessive and Sakura the hothead.

"We all know how that team ended up" Hiruzen looked sad for a moment before continuing. "So I thought about what I could do to prevent history from repeating itself. Harry Hyuga might just be the key. From what Iruka has told me, Harry is not overly competitive or hot-headed, and he tries to cooperate with everyone. He might just be the key to making them a team rather than a group of individuals."

Kakashi looked at the Hokage with a raised eyebrow. The old man clearly wanted the team to succeed. He supposed the old man wanted to make up for the mistakes of the past.

The Hokage's logic couldn't be faulted. A boy like Harry sounded to be would almost certainly act as a peacekeeper for them. In fact, the more he thought about it, Harry as the fourth member of the squad could not have been more perfect. Sasuke had a problem with thinking he is superior to everyone around him; with Harry, who had equalled all of his grades in the academy, that shouldn't be an issue. Sakura was apparently only interested in Sasuke, and found Naruto to be annoying, but respected and got on well with Harry. Neither Sasuke or Sakura respected Naruto as a shinobi or a person, but Harry admired and had befriended him only days ago.

Provided they were able to pass the bell test, Kakashi was sure he could mould them into a cohesive unit.

"So when do we meet them?" Kakashi asked.

"Where is he!" Naruto shouted impatiently. "All the other teams have already met their sensei and left!" he stuck his head out into the corridor for what Harry thought must have been the millionth time.

"Narutooo" Sakura whined. "Can you just stop complaining and wait? You're so annoying" she said, tapping her foot impatiently.

Like always, Sasuke remained quiet. He simply sat hunched over his desk, chin resting over his interlocked hands.

Harry was sitting too, head leaning back over his chair. He wasn't an impatient person, but three hours was starting to push it.

He lifted his head when he heard Naruto laugh mischievously. "What are you doing?" he asked his new friend.

Naruto was standing on a chair, trying to jam the blackboard eraser between the door frame and the sliding door.

"This is what he gets for being so late!" Naruto said impertinently.

Harry sighed, about to tell Naruto that it was a bad idea. Surprisingly, Sasuke spoke up instead.

"Our sensei is a jonin. He's not going to fall for something so stupid" he said.

"We we'll just see about that won't we" Naruto argued.

They all turned to face the door as they finally heard someone walking up the hallway. Slowly the door slid open and a man with silver hair and face mask poked his head in, the eraser plopping onto the top of his head.

"Haha he totally fell for it!" Naruto laughed, clutching his stomach.

"I'm so sorry sensei!" Sakura cried. "Sasuke told him not to do it! We would never do anything like that, would we Sasuke?" she looked at the black haired boy with bright eyes. Sasuke, predictably, stayed silent.

Harry rolled his eyes. He liked Sakura, but sometimes she was a little too intense with her crush on the black haired boy.

"Well" the man said, speaking behind his mask. "My first impression of you is… you're a bunch of morons" he said casually.

Harry tried not to laugh. He had no idea if the man was joking or not, but that was the last thing Harry had expected him to say. He found it quite funny.

"Well then, let's get to know each other then. Why don't you guys tell me a bit about yourselves?" he said.

"Well what do you want to know?" Sakura asked.

"Oh I don't know. Likes and dislikes, future dreams, hobbies… You know, things like that. Why don't I go first?" he suggested obligingly. "My name is Kakashi Hatake. Things I like and don't like?" he hesitated and tapped his chin, like he was trying to think of an answer.

"I don't feel like telling you that" he decided.

Harry had to fight the urge to laugh once again. Was he serious?

"Future dreams? Never really thought about it" he announced after another moment's hesitation. "Hobbies? Well I have lots of hobbies" he told them cheerfully.

Harry did laugh then, though he was the only one. His teammates just looked frustrated.

"All you told us was your name" Sakura criticized.

"Your turn" Kakashi smiled, ignoring her. Actually, Harry didn't know how he knew that Kakashi even was smiling. It was odd, the only part of his face that was visible was his right eye, but that one body part managed to convey all of his emotions perfectly. It was remarkably expressive, Harry thought.

Kakashi pointed to Naruto and gestured for him to speak.

"Well I guess… I like Ramen?" Naruto said uncertainly. "Yeah I like Ramen" he said more assuredly, when Kakashi didn't question him. "I dislike the three minutes you have to wait after putting the ramen noodles in the cup" he continued, "and my dream is to become the greatest Hokage!" he exclaimed the last part loudly.

Harry had heard him state his wish to become Hokage countless times before. It had shocked Harry at first, that he would want to lead the village who ostracised him, but that was just who Naruto was. No matter how badly he was treated, Naruto didn't seem to hate them for it. All he wanted was to be acknowledged by them.

"I'm Sakura Harano" Sakura said after Kakashi nodded in her direction. "The thing I like is…" she looked at Sasuke and blushed.

'No surprises there' Harry thought.

"My hobbies are…" she blushed even deeper. "And my future dream is…" she giggled as she looked at Sasuke one more time.

Sasuke didn't even look up at her, just stared blankly ahead, as though Sakura wasn't speaking at all.

"Harry Hyuga" Harry said next. "I spend most of my time training, and I enjoy sparring with my father, or basically anyone that's around." He tapped his fingers on the inside of his crossed legs as he thought of what to say next. "If I had to say something I don't like… it would probably be bullies" Harry said, thinking of Hiashi's father with a scowl. "And my future dreams…" Harry trailed off. He'd never really thought about it. All he wanted was to become stronger, like Fawkes had promised he would. "I guess it's to become as strong as I can possibly be, and to protect those precious to me" he finished.

"Sasuke Uchiha" Sasuke began in a dark tone. "I don't particularly like anything, and I hate a lot of things" he said coldly. Sakura dropped her head in disappointment. "My future is not a dream, because I will make it reality. I will restore my clan and destroy… a certain someone."

Harry definitely wasn't surprised to hear Sasuke's response either. Harry had once asked Hiashi why Sasuke would hate that Harry was his equal in classes. He'd been told how Sasuke's older brother Itachi had slaughtered their entire clan, leaving Sasuke as the only survivor. Ever since, Sasuke had dedicated himself to become as strong as Itachi, so that he could avenge his family.

"Alright then" Kakashi said casually, as if what Sasuke had just announced was the most ordinary declaration in the world.

"Tomorrow we'll have our first mission" he said. That had all of their attention.

"What will we be doing?" Sakura asked excitedly. Since their first day in the academy, all of the students longed for the day they would be able to go on a real mission.

"It'll be a survival exercise" Kakashi said simply.

Sakura frowned, along with Naruto. Harry and Sasuke however, remained impassive, listening intently.

"But I thought we were done with all the exercises. We're genin now, shouldn't we be going on real missions?" Sakura asked, Naruto nodding along enthusiastically.

"Yeah that's right!" Naruto agreed.

Kakashi pondered this for a moment.

"No, this exercise is set by me. You might have passed the academy's exam… but you haven't passed mine" Kakashi said, looking at them with a serious look in his eye.

"But then… you mean we have to pass your test before we're actually genin?" Naruto asked with dread.

"You got it" Kakashi answered happily, his strange one eyed smile back in place.

"But what if we fail?" Naruto asked, panic creeping into his voice.

"If you fail" Kakashi began. "You'll be sent back to the academy."

Harry flinched back in shock. Could that happen? Iruka had never mentioned they would have to complete a second test for their jonin sensei before they were actually genin.

"Right then. I'll see you at five a.m. tomorrow at the third training ground. Don't be late" Kakashi said, quickly forming a hand sign and disappearing in a swirl of leaves.

"But you were totally late today!" Naruto shouted after him.

It was about eleven a.m. before Kakashi actually showed up at the training ground.

"You're late!" Sakura and Naruto accused him at the same time, pointing their fingers.

He waved a hand in mock apology. "Well a black cat crossed my path, so I had to take the long way" he explained.

Harry shook his head with an amused smile. Seemed like this was going to be a common occurrence.

Kakashi cleared his throat. "Well then, let's get started, he said, walking straight past the fuming Naruto and Sakura without a look.

"I'm going to give you one hour" Kakashi said, reaching into his leg pouch.

"What's the task?" Harry asked, watching Kakashi carefully.

"It's quite simple really" Kakashi answered. "You just need to get these bells from me." In his hand were three small bells hanging from a red string. He attached them to his belt.

"Theres only three" Harry observed. Something seemed strange about this exam, but he couldn't put his finger on what it was.

"That's right. Only three of you can pass the exam and become my genin students. The other is going back to the academy" he said simply.

Harry couldn't believe it. It was bad enough that they weren't genin until they passed Kakashi's test, but now one of them was guaranteed to fail? Harry didn't want any of them to fail. They had all worked so hard to graduate from the academy, it seemed unfair that they might have to return so quickly.

"You can come at me with any weapon you like. If you don't come at me with the intent to kill, you have no chance" he advised.

"This'll be a piece of cake!" Naruto exclaimed. "Those bells are mine!"

Kakashi gave him a blank stare. Instead of a smile this time, his one expressive eye seemed to sneer.

"I hear you had the lowest mark in the academy. Frankly I'm not sure why they passed you at all. I guess it's true what they say… the smallest dog barks the loudest" Kakashi said.

Naruto's face grew red as he reached for the kunai in his pouch. "I'll make you eat those words!" he promised angrily, spinning the kunai on a finger and charging at the jonin.

In the blink of an eye. Kakashi was somehow behind Naruto, one hand gripping the top of his blonde's head, the other holding Naruto's own hand, kunai still wielded, at the back of his neck. It hadn't passed any of their attention that if he had wanted to kill Naruto, he could've done so without any of them even having a chance to stop him. This was going to be even more difficult than Harry had anticipated.

"I didn't say start yet. Don't be so hasty" Kakashi said quietly. He let Naruto go with a small push forward, sending him sprawling to the ground.

"Ready?" he asked them slowly. Harry leant low to the ground, preparing to jump straight into the nearby trees.

"Begin!"

Harry headed straight for the brush. Against a jonin as fast as Kakashi clearly was, a frontal attack would never work, even with his talent at taijutsu with the gentle fist. He quickly found a good branch surrounded by thick scrub. Activating his Byakugan, he searched the area.

'Theres Sasuke; and Sakura' he thought. Both had the same idea as him, hiding until they could find a good opening. When he found Naruto, he resisted the urge to rub a hand down his face in frustration. Of course Naruto was attempting a frontal attack, the fool. And of course he was losing… badly.

Harry paled, sympathising with the blonde who had just been sent flying with two fingers into his backside. Naruto wasn't finished yet though, jumping out of the water with a number of shadow clones to back him up.

'Could this actually work' Harry wondered, watching in bewilderment as one of his friend's clones managed to sneak up behind the jonin, holding him in place.

'No' he quickly realised, Kakashi had performed a substitution, and Naruto was unexpectedly punching his clone instead of the jonin sensei.

After a brief fight with his own shadow clones, Harry watched as Naruto went to grab something underneath the tree that Kakashi was hiding in. One of the bells, Harry realised.

'Don't do it Naruto' Harry hoped. But in typical Naruto fashion, he couldn't help himself. He was hoisted into the air by the rope trap that Kakashi had prepared.

Kakashi dropped down from the tree and began talking to Naruto, most likely lecturing him for falling for such obvious bait.

For a moment Harry thought it was the perfect time to attack. Kakashi's stance was more open, more relaxed. Thanks to his Byakugan though, he saw that this too was a substitution, the real Kakashi still in the tree. Not for the first time in his life, he thanked whatever gods there were that he was born with those eyes. Without them, he would definitely have fallen for Kakashi's ruse.

Sasuke though didn't have the Byakugan, and chose that exact moment to strike. The substitution Kakashi was littered on all sides with shuriken, perfectly aimed by the Uchiha.

Harry watched as Sasuke realised his mistake and started leaping in the other direction through the trees. Harry's eyebrows drew together as Sakura started moving towards Sasuke's position. Why would she make such a stupid move? Kakashi would surely be headed in the same direction. Could she just not help herself when it came to Sasuke?

Harry observed from a distance as Kakashi approached Sakura from behind. 'So he knows Genjutsu too' Harry realised, seeing Sakura's chakra flow disrupted with his Byakugan. Sakura fell to the ground unconscious.

Harry leapt through the trees chasing after Kakashi, who must have been following Sasuke's trail. He stopped again though when Kakashi caught up to his teammate, and the two began to fight after a few brief words.

Having been at the receiving end of Sasuke's attacks, he knew that the other boy was fighting as fiercely as he could, even managing to get a finger to one of the bells before Kakashi jumped away. Harry's eyes widened when Sasuke managed to perform a fire style jutsu. Nature transformations were notoriously difficult. To achieve one at only newly minted genin level was quite an accomplishment. Despite their equal academy grades, it was clear that Sasuke was above Harry in terms of ninjutsu.

But still Kakashi proved the more skilful, performing an earth style jutsu and heading underground. It was blurred and distorted, but Harry could just make out Kakashi's chakra underneath the ground. It was good to know that the Byakugan could penetrate even that jutsu.

Sasuke was caught off guard when he was grabbed by the ankle and pulled down, leaving only his head above the dirt.

Kakashi stood in front of him, but that meant that his back was to Harry.

'Now!' Harry thought, jumping high into the air and towards the two of them. He held his hand flat and horizontal, poised for a strike into Kakashi's main chakra source in his stomach. If Sasuke was more skilled in ninjutsu, then Harry's specialty, like all the Hyuga, was taijutsu.

Just before the strike hit, Kakashi moved to the side, Harry's hand only just missing him. He didn't stop there though, landing on his hand and spinning with a leg out, trying to knock the jonin off his feet. Kakashi jumped over it harmlessly.

As fast as he could move Harry launched into a series of finger strikes and kicks, trying to shut down the man's chakra network. Despite how fast and proficient Harry was at the gentle fist taijutsu, Kakashi managed to evade every one of his blows. He even knew how to block Harry correctly so that he didn't have a chance to inject some of his chakra.

"Very fast moves. And almost perfectly executed too" Kakashi remarked. "I'm impressed. I can see why the two of you were held in such high regard in the academy." To his left, Harry could see Sasuke glaring at the silver haired jonin.

"But you still have a ways to go yet" Kakashi said, jumping back and out of Harry's reach. Faster than Harry would have thought possible, Kakashi performed several hand signs and held them in front of his mouth.

"Fire Style: Fireball Jutsu!" he said. Fire came streaming out of Kakashi's mouth, forming a massive ball of fire. Bigger than Sasuke's had been.

"Rotation!" Harry called out. He released chakra from all the tenketsu in his body and begun to spin. The familiar chakra dome spun around him, the fire gliding helplessly by the shield. While he was spinning, Harry managed to grab a smoke bomb from his pouch and throw it into the ground. When the fire had all disappeared, he soared back into the trees, using the smoke to cover his escape.

'We've only got about 15 more minutes' Harry realised as he jumped to the ground, landing softly next to Sasuke's head.

After Harry had hidden back into the trees, he waited a few minutes while Kakashi hung around, most likely waiting to see if Harry would return to try again. After a while though he jumped away, most likely to check on Naruto.

"He's strong" Sasuke commented as Harry helped him out of the ground.

"Too strong" Harry agreed. "Which is why I don't think that defeating him is the real test."

When he was waiting for Kakashi to leave Sasuke, Harry had come to understand something about the task. Kakashi was clearly too strong for them, not one of them could hope to match him, and both he and Sasuke were the best of the new graduates. That was when it had hit him. If not one of them could defeat him, maybe they all could.

There were only three bells and four of them, but that was the point, Harry realised. At first he thought there were only three bells because they were the only genin squad to have four members instead of three, but now he was starting to realise there were only three so they would be discouraged to work together and discover the true purpose of the test. The true test was to see how well they could cooperate as a team, even when the odds had been stacked against them.

He explained his logic to Sasuke.

"It makes sense" Sasuke admitted. "So we should fight him together" Sasuke admitted, though he hardly seemed happy about it.

"With Sakura and Naruto as well" Harry said. "Sakura is closer, so we'll get her on side first. Naruto is with Kakashi, tied to one of those posts back at the training ground" Harry illuminated.

"How do you-" Sasuke began, stopping when he noticed Harry's activated Byakugan.

It only took them a minute or two to reach Sakura, who was still lying on the ground unconscious.

Harry knelt down next to her. "Genjutsu" he explained to Sasuke.

"Release" Harry said holding one hand on Sakura's shoulder, his other in a chakra focusing sign.

Sakura awoke with a loud gasp. She looked rapidly between Sasuke and Harry.

"Sasuke… You're alive, I'm so glad" she gushed.

"Listen Sakura, we've only got about ten minutes left" Sasuke began. He quickly explained their plan.

Sakura nodded her agreement. "Let's go" Harry said, jumping into the trees and heading back to the training ground. When they were close, he stopped again.

"Sakura" he began. "Sasuke and I will keep Kakashi occupied, while we're fighting you go and free Naruto."

"Are you sure we even need Naruto? Why don't the three of us attack him together and get the bells?"

Harry turned an offended gaze at her. "Because Naruto was chosen as our teammate. Either we are in this all together or not at all" he argued.

"But Harry" Sakura said gently. "You might be wrong. Attacking together is a good idea, but there are still only three bells. Kakashi might only be allowed to take a three-person team like the other teams had."

Harry supposed she was right. Harry could absolutely be wrong. It didn't matter either way though, Harry would never betray Naruto like that.

"If I'm wrong, I'll take the fall and go back to the academy. I'm not going to abandon a comrade" Harry said defiantly.

Sakura nodded sheepishly. Sasuke looked at Harry with a strange expression.

"Ready?" Harry asked Sasuke.

"Ready" he said, his indifferent expression reappearing.

With lightning speed, they both launched themselves at Kakashi, who quickly began to evade their attacks, dropping the book he was reading. Sakura cut Naruto free from the post. He fell to the ground and looked up at them in confusion.

"Naruto, together!" Harry yelled out, leaning back to avoid a high kick from Kakashi.

Naruto must have got the message, because he and Sakura both leapt over to them, ready to join in the fight.

Kakashi jumped backwards and out of their reach. Before they could continue their assault, Kakashi held up a hand to stop them.

"Time's up I'm afraid" Kakashi said.

Harry's heart almost stopped. After all that effort, none of them were going to pass.

"Then you mean we've…" Sakura began on the verge of tears.

"You pass" Kakashi said happily.

Harry let out a breath he hadn't even known he was holding. He must have been right.

"What?" Naruto asked, looking at Kakashi like he was crazy.

"You. Pass" Kakashi repeated.

"But we never got the bells" Naruto said quizzically.

Kakashi smiled that strange one eyed smile again.

"The bells were never the point. The real test was to see if you guys would be able to work together. I only had three bells to see if you would still team up despite one of you not being able to pass" he pointed to the three bells. "Whose idea was it to work together?" he asked curiously.

Harry was about to say it was all of theirs, but Sasuke beat him to it.

"It was Harry's" he said.

Harry couldn't help but notice a strange knowing twinkle had appeared in Kakashi's visible eye. It really puzzled Harry as to how he could pull off so many facial expressions with just one eye.

"So we all pass?" Naruto asked, getting more excited by the second.

"You're all now officially my students" Kakashi answered. "Congratulations."

Notes

Hope you all enjoyed once again. If you're worried that the whole fic is just going to follow the entire canon plot of Naruto, just with Harry, I promise it wont. I have big plans for this fic, it just has to get to a point where I can divert their paths a bit. I'm going to shake Naruto storyline up a bit though, so please be patient with me

Some of you might be confused about the four-man team thing, but every member of team 7 is so vital (yes even Sakura, haters haha) that I couldn't bear to split them up. In the end the only time it really matters is during the chunin exams anyway, there are plenty of other instances where teams are bigger, or smaller even, than the three man squads.

Im also hoping that most of the readers of this fic have actually watched Naruto, since Im skipping little bits and pieces here and there, and changing tiny little details in order for it to make more sense with Harry's presence.

Again, Im sure I had something else I wanted to write here, but Im totally blanking. So ill just say again thanks for reading, and if you have any questions or spot any errors, please let me know, since this is self beta'd.
