So so sorry that this is a bit late, i was really busy. Then fanfiction wouldn't let me post any new chapters for ages which was really annoying.

That and i'm in the middle of writing 5 other stories too at the minute.

Hope you enjoy this new chapter, i was a bit slow writing it but i think it turned out ok.

Enjoy!


It was about a few days later when anything else of interest happened, they'd been having a few quiet days much to their relief, when one of Naruto's bunshin reported something interesting. Naruto had immediately stiffened when the bunshin dispersed and they knew that something had happened because Naruto didn't do that when it was just a normal report. They'd all been just about to go to bed, apart from Naruto, Gaara and Shikamaru who were on the night shift, but this caught everyone's attention.

"What happened?" asked Yana worriedly, they all hoped it was nothing too serious. Naruto looked puzzled for a moment and shook his head to clear the new memories.

"Someone's head appeared in the fire in the Gryffindor common room and talked to Harry," said Naruto frowning. That was definitely one of the weirdest things they'd heard.

"What?" asked Kakashi bemused. "Moue… magic is so weird."

"It's a form of communication," said Sasuke quietly. "I read about it in the library, they throw this stuff called floo powder into a fire and then stick their head in the flames. It doesn't harm them," he explained seeing their incredulous faces. "They then say where they want to go and their head appears in the fire of that place and they can talk to who ever is there." There was a moment of silence.

"Why on earth do they find us so weird?" protested Naruto. "They do things that are much stranger!"

"Never mind that! What did the floating head say?" Yana paused. "That sounded too weird."

"Erm… well Harry knew him," started Naruto. "Called him Sirius, they sounded close. It sounds like he's on the run or something because they got nervous about him being mentioned in the newspaper. Other than that they talked about the Ministry and Umbridge. Apparently Sirius's opinion of her is like ours, except he has evidence to back it up. In other words, she's an evil conniving bitch who worships the ground at the Minister's feet and hates anyone who isn't even slightly human."

The blonde paused for a moment playing through the memory. "He also backs up what McGonagall said about the Minister being afraid of Dumbledore creating an army using the students, he practically ordered Umbridge not to let them use active magic in classes."

Shikamaru sighed heavily and leaned back against the sofa. "We need to do something about her," he muttered. "That woman could seriously compromise our mission if something happens within the castle."

Hinata nodded. "We'll end up worrying about her trying to do something from the inside while we're attacked from the outside and coupled with the fact that the students can't really fight…"

"So basically, we're doomed," stated Gaara.

"… who is this Sirius person?" asked Kakashi. "Other than the fact that he's close to Harry, what do we know?"

"Apparently he's Harry's Godfather," muttered Yana flicking through some papers. "It was thought that he betrayed Harry's parents to Voldemort but it was a big mix up and it turns out it was another one of their friends that did it. No one outside the Order knows this though so he has to stay in hiding so he isn't arrested or worse."

"And what's the Order again?" asked Naruto sheepishly.

"They're the group that Dumbledore set up to fight against Voldemort," explained Shikamaru. "Although they're kind of secret at the moment since no one will publicly acknowledge Voldemort's return." Naruto deadpanned.

"So let me get this straight… we're protecting the school from someone everyone still thinks is dead, we may be hindered from inside by Umbridge and our main charge has a habit of getting into trouble?" he asked. Everyone sweat dropped, put like that their chances of success didn't seem very good. "Does no one else think this mission is really messed up?"

It was the next day when they realised just how in trouble they might be.


"Hogwarts High Inquisitor…" read Sasuke off the front of the newspaper. "What is that?"

"It looks like Fudge, the Minister, is giving Umbridge an excuse to interfere with how the school is run," murmured Hinata. The guards were all sat up on the rafters above the Great hall, Naruto had snatched a newspaper from one of the tables and brought it for the rest of them to read since it seemed to be causing such a fuss amongst the students.

That day was horrible as they watched Umbridge go round the teachers and assess their teaching, Sasuke got a laugh out of watching her try to intimidate McGonagall, apparently it was like watching a worm try to frighten a bird only to have the bird eat it alive. Some teachers didn't do as well as McGonagall though, Hinata was deeply upset after Divination where Umbridge had ridiculed Trelawney and Harry managed to get himself into detention again.

Once again it was Naruto that managed to bring them the most important information.

"It seems Hermione has realised the same problem that we have in regards to the students being unable to defend themselves," said Naruto absently as he sorted through the memories of a recently dispersed kage bunshin.

"Well she is the smartest in the year," said Kakashi from his spot in front of the fire with his book. "I'm not surprised that she's the one that's decided to do something about it."

"So she wants to organise their own classes in Defence Against the Dark Arts and have Harry teach them?" asked Sasuke. "What makes them think Harry is capable of teaching them?"

"It makes sense," replied Shikamaru. "Harry has the most experience fighting out of all of them, he knows what it feels like to be pressured and to fight to survive. Harry is a very good choice even if he won't necessarily help them pass their exams, he'll help them stay alive. Did he say he would do it?"

"No, he got really agitated saying that they didn't know what it was like," said Naruto. "I think it really upset him when they tried to make a joke about it." Gaara nodded in thought.

"Well that shows that he has some idea of what battle is like," said the red head reading through some essays that he and Kakashi had set. "He'll change his mind once he's thought about it properly."

"You think so?" asked Naruto curiously. "He seemed pretty adamant."

"Once he's realised how much more prepared they'll be if something happens and how good it will feel to see Umbridge's stupefied look in their exams, he'll decide to do it," explained Gaara.


Sure enough a few weeks later Harry seemed to cave into the idea and Hermione set about discretely asking who else wanted to be involved, the shinobi were glad that she had the sense to keep it quiet because Umbridge would have a field day if she found out what they were trying to do.

"Hey I heard Harry and his friends are holding a little meeting at this pub when they go to Hogsmeade, it's for that club thing they're setting up. Want to check it out?" asked Naruto. Kakashi waved him away.

"Sorry, I have to stay behind to keep an eye on the castle. The rest of you could go though," he suggested. "Just remember to use henge and take those two with you while you're at it," he said jerking a thumb at Neji and Kankuro who had come for mission reports again. Yana clapped her hands delightedly.

"Yay! This is going to be so fun! Let's henge in to students and make up names and everything." She pointed to Naruto and Neji. "You two have to henge in to girls though."

"Eh!"

"I don't want them getting suspicious if they realise there's the same number of guys and girls as the guards." She smirked. "Besides, you'll be going as couples right? It'll be interesting if you actually go as opposite genders." Naruto and Neji sighed while exchanging glances.

"I swear its your job is to torment us," moaned Naruto. Yana tilted her head.

"It isn't?" They all sweat dropped. Evil, she was just pure evil in the guise of an innocent looking woman. Pity on the poor soul that ended up marrying her… if Kakashi ever let anyone date her any way.


Harry, Ron and Hermione arrived at the Hog's Head and nearly walked straight back out. Gaara was sat there at the bar looking decidedly bored.

"What's he doing here?" hissed Ron. "We can't do this if he's here!" Gaara turned his gaze to them and beckoned them over, they approached hesitantly.

"Erm… did you want something Professor Sabaku?" asked Hermione nervously. He rolled his eyes.

"Well I want you to call me Gaara, sheesh I'm not that much older than you, I'm only eighteen," he muttered. They stared at him shocked, they'd had no idea he was that young. "So, are you waiting to see who turns up for your meeting?"

They stiffened making him sigh. "I'm not going to tell. I don't like toad face either so I think this club of yours is a good idea. I hope you don't mind, I invited some people who I thought might be interested." They shook their heads.

"No that's fine," said Hermione. "But… why are you here?"

"I'm curious. I wanted to see how you were going to go about this." He looked at them directly. "By the way, you'll find that you'll have trouble keeping any thing from the guards." They gasped.

"They're the ones that told you?" asked Harry. He nodded.

"Their captain wanted some adult supervision, yeah right," he muttered. "You're separate from the rest of the school at the minute, they wanted to make sure nothing happens since it looks like a lot of people will be coming." As he said that the door opened and everyone that Hermione had invited walked in together. They too paused momentarily at the sight of Gaara but relaxed when they saw Harry nod.

"Hey Gaara," called the twins. "Trying to crash the party?" He sighed.

"No. I invited some people though."

"Who'd you invite?"

"They're not here yet." The door opened again.

"Wow it's really cold out there!" They all turned to the new comers. A shapely blonde girl with pigtails ran straight to Gaara.

"Gaara!" she cried glomping him. He twitched trying to get her to let go.

"Stop being stupid," said a blonde haired boy with green eyes. She stuck her tongue out at him. Gaara sighed, again.

"Where are the other two?" They all looked around.

"They must have got lost."

"I told you it was this way!" yelled a girl from outside the door. A girl with long white blonde hair opened it and walked in dragging a red spiky haired boy with her.

"Oh. Sorry," she said sheepishly. "We got lost." Harry looked at Gaara.

"Are these the people you invited?" he asked curiously, they looked like an odd bunch. He nodded, the white haired girl smiled.

"I'm sorry if we're not welcome. We were just interested in this club you guys are making." Hermione shook her head.

"It's fine." She grinned again.

"Allow me to introduce everyone, I wouldn't like to seem rude." She gestured to the blonde girl hugging Gaara. "That's Natalie, she's kinda with Gaara." Really Naruto. A couple of jaws dropped.

"Whoa, nice score Gaara!" hooted the twins, he scowled at them.

"This is Simon and his girlfriend Hannah," she continued pointing to the blonde boy and the girl with long chocolate brown hair, really Sasuke and Hinata. Next she pointed to a boy with dull black hair and a girl with short red hair. "This is Kevin and Nicole who are also together." Really Kankuro and Neji. "This is Shaun." She pointed to the boy she'd come in with, he scowled at her. Actually Shikamaru. "I'm Yuki," she said beaming, actually Yana. They all blinked.

"Why does your name sound so weird?" asked Ron. She blushed slightly.

"It's Japanese, it means snow. My parents really wanted to call me it since my hair is so pale, they thought it was a really pretty name," she explained tugging her hair slightly. "Erm… if it makes you feel better you can call me Hayley, that's my first name, I just like my middle name better," she said downcast. Hermione elbowed Ron for his lack of tact.

"No, we'll call you Yuki, it is a really pretty name." She glowed.

"Thank you. Erm… so are we having this meeting or not. Toad face is really pathetic, she definitely can't teach." Ron frowned.

"Do you all call her toad face?" The group nodded.

"Everyone except Natalie," said Hannah. "She says it's an insult to toads." The whole group laughed while Natalie just huffed.

"I know some very nice toads thank you very much," she muttered. "They'd be very insulted to be compared to her."

After some serious discussion (everyone ganging up on Harry until he shouted at them), they all agreed to join and set about trying to find somewhere that they could all meet up. The disguised shinobi were the first to leave and quickly made their way back to the castle, leaving Gaara and Naruto to come back at their own pace while they kept an eye on Harry.

"I'm glad they've decided to do something for themselves," said Hinata as they entered the castle. "I feel like we can relax a little bit now."

"We'll have to make sure Umbridge doesn't find out about them though," reminded Sasuke. "It'll be the perfect excuse for her to expel them and then we won't be able to protect Potter."

It was on Monday that Umbridge as the High Inquisitor, announced the disbanding of all clubs and expulsion of those members of clubs that were not approved by her.

The worst thing was that they couldn't figure out how she had found out about them.


Hehe i had fun thinking up names and appearances for them in henge, i can't wait until the wizards find out that it was actually the shinobi.

Once again i appologise for the late update, but its not my fault was being weird!

Please review and i hope you enjoyed reading!
