Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto, Harry Potter, or Satoshi, who is from Ouran High School Host Club.
Summary: When Hayden Potter turns seven, she receives a letter from a school that teaches the Lost Shinobi (Ninja) Arts, including a scholarship that gives her information on her family. As Hayden accepts the offer in the hopes of finding somewhere that she can call home, she is brought into the hidden world of the Elemental Nations, the former countries now being allied and forming the academy. Hayden is made aware of her magical heritage on top of her ninja heritage, and Hogwarts will get a few interesting surprises when she reenters the magical world as a full-fledged ninja.
Warnings: Blaise x Hayden, female Harry, female Naruto, SasuNaru, spoilers, Uzumaki Lily and Hayden, some angst, some bashing (Dumbledore and Dursleys for sure, haven't decided on everyone else), possible yaoi or yuri pairings at some point…I think that's it. Sorry if I missed anything.
**Guest called em: Why yes, yes it was. Good catch. ;)
**Mehidk43: Thanks! I have been updating quickly, huh? I guess I'm just so bad at updating usually that I'm trying to get as much of the story out as possible before I lose interest or motivation.
Haha! Naruto murdering the Durlseys and Bella with nothing but her killing intent, huh? I don't know, I think there would be a law on using it against 'civilians' like the Dursleys. Sakura could go into detail about how she would torture them for hours on end, using her medical expertise to keep them conscious and alive through the whole thing. Bellatrix, however…hm. Maybe let some of Shukaku's chakra slip into Naruto's KI and overwhelm Bellatrix's own insanity, driving her to suicide. Zabuza's nearly made Sasuke kill himself with a kunai to get away from it, after all.
I don't know. I haven't quite decided how I'm going to deal with the Dursleys, yet. Another reviewer asked if I was going to have Dumbledore kill them after finding out that Hayden isn't there later in the story, but I wasn't planning on making him outright evil, so he won't do that.
Enjoy!
Hayden blinked in surprise as she was suddenly pulled into Sarada's bedroom on her way to her own.
"Neechan, what—" she froze at the many pairs of eyes staring at her.
"Spontaneous sleepover." Satoshi explained from the sleeping bag he was sitting on. "You're joining us."
"A-are you sure?" the now eight year old asked. "I don't want to intrude—"
'Like I did at Privet Drive.'She thought, frowning a bit.
"Oh, shush." Sarada waved her concerned away. "You're staying, end of story. Your stuff is already here, too."
She gestured to a royal blue sleeping bag with Hayden's pillow already laying on it.
"We'd love to have you here." One of the other kids added with a genuine smile.
The girl had waist-length brown hair that looked like it had just been let down and white/light purple eyes with no pupils, just like…
"Are you related to Hinata-chan?" Hayden blurted out, before blushing. "Um, sorry, I didn't mean to—"
"That's alright." The girl grinned. "My dad is her first cousin. And technically they could be considered half-siblings genetically, if not by law, because their dads were identical twins."
(AN: yes, apparently the children of identical twins actually are half-siblings if you go by their genetics. Not by law, but by their DNA.)
"Is that how it works?" a boy with shoulder-length blonde hair and green eyes wondered aloud.
"Yes." Another boy, this one with black hair in an odd style and teal eyes. He was the only one actually laying down. He opened an eye lazily, glancing at Hayden. "Nara Shikadai."
"Oh!" the girl from before started, turning to Hayden. "Sorry, guess I got distracted. Hyūga Kimiko, at your service."
She stood up, only to bow dramatically.
"It's obvious you don't get your personality from your father." Sarada said dryly, smirking at her best friend.
Kimiko shrugged. "Just means I enjoy life more. And hey, apparently he used to be like thirty times worse, at least according to mom."
"So did ours." Satoshi agreed, before pausing. "Be a lot worse, I mean. He didn't say anything about your dad."
Hayden crackled a small smile at her siblings' friends. They seemed nice…
"Yamanaka Inoichi." The blonde haired boy from before introduced himself to her, ignoring Satoshi.
"Uzumaki Hayden." She returned with a grin. She hadn't had a chance to introduce herself yet, since Kimiko-senpai had spoken up right after Shikadai-senpai, and Sarada had spoken up right after her. "Nice to meet you. Nice to meet all of you." She added, glancing around at the others in the room.
A young girl with dark skin and odd red marks on her cheeks grinned at her. "You too. Akimichi Chōchō, not at your service, but I'll give you some chips!"
And with that, the girl offered a bag to her.
"Thank…you?" Hayden said slowly, carefully taking a few and trying one. "These are good."
"Akimichi see sharing food as a sign of friendship." Shikadai commented, eyes still closed.
"Oh." Hayden blinked, before smiling shyly at the other girl. "I'll have to return the favor someday, then!"
Chōchō grinned at her, approving wholeheartedly of her attitude.
"I am METAL LEE!" another boy said with a black bowl cut and large eyebrows, wearing a green spandex suit, shouted cheerfully. "It is YOUTHFUL to meet you!"
Hayden stared at him, baffled. "You…too?"
The boy grinned widely at her, teeth sparkling, and she guessed that that had been the correct response.
Huh.
She had a feeling that things were never boring around this bunch.
The kids didn't know it yet, but Naruto had some news for her husband.
"Sasuke…" she whispered, touching her forehead to his as her excited blue eyes met his confused dark ones. "I'm pregnant."
The confusion quickly morphed to shock, and then hope, and joy.
Not a second after that the blonde suddenly found her lips occupied.
Satoshi yelled happily when his parents told them the news. Even Sarada squealed uncharacteristically.
Hayden bit her lip. On one hand, she was really happy, but…what if now that there was a new baby on the way they didn't want her anymore.
"Another little sibling?" Satoshi asked with a grin. "You're spoiling us!"
Hayden looked up, shocked.
"By all means, keep doing it, though." Sarada said with a smile, going over to hug Hayden.
The oldest of the siblings, she was also the most perceptive, and had a feeling what was bothering her younger sister, and saw it as her duty to reassure her that she wouldn't be forgotten.
Sasuke smirked at his wife. "Keep doing it, huh? Well, I can't promise you any more siblings, but we can try."
The three kids, who hadn't yet had a certain talk, stared at their parents in surprise as Naruto punched their dad—hard—on the shoulder.
The amount of security measures that they set up would put even the most paranoid of purebloods to shame.
Three Fūinjutsu masters, Naruto included, spent months writing protective seals all over the safe house that they had chosen for her to give birth. The Yamanaka clan and Torture and Interrogation department both 'interviewed' the wards master they had hired to protect it further. Then a different magical, this one a charms mistress, hired under the same conditions, cast a Fidelius charm with Sasuke as the Secret Keeper. Both magic-users also had to agree to an Unbreakable Vow not to sabotage them in any way or find any way to tell anyone the details of their job.
Along with that, there were a dozen ANBU guards alongside the couple's friends, amongst them Gaara, the Kazekage, stationed outside of the house just in case someone (or something) tried to get in.
And inside with Naruto were Sasuke (obviously), Tsunade and Sakura (the two women delivering the baby), and the two other Fūinjutsu masters keeping careful watch over Naruto's seal.
There was also the fact that this time, the demon—or in this case demons, cared too much about the girl to try and escape, which would kill her, and were doing their best to keep the seal steady from their side, too.
All in all, it went far better than when Kushina had given birth to Naruto herself and the Kyūbi was released due to Madara managing to find her safe house and attack while she was vulnerable.
And so Uchiha-Uzumaki Sayuri, a beautiful and healthy baby girl, was born at 2:37 in the morning on December 2nd, 2009.
"She looks just like you." Sasuke murmured quietly, rocking his newborn daughter in his arm as he stared at her with soft eyes. "So beautiful…"
Naruto smiled tiredly, still a bit worn down after her stressful pregnancy.
After all, how could she not have been stressed? Last time a Jinchūriki gave birth her parents had sacrificed themselves for her and half of Konoha had been destroyed.
Luckily that hadn't been the case this time.
Indeed, Sayuri had small tufts of blonde hair, and even the same whisker birthmarks that Naruto did. It must be a thing for all children born to the Kyūbi's Jinchūriki, because Naruto had had hers before it was sealed inside of her on the day of her birth.
And though there was no way of knowing, since babies often had blue eyes for a while after they were born, the ecstatic parents had a feeling that she had inherited Naruto's blue eyes, too.
"Ready for the horde of visitors?" Sasuke asked after a long minute, handing his wife their daughter.
Naruto took a deep breath, staring at the door. "Bring it on."
Five minutes later, when everyone was calm enough for the proud parents to announce their daughter's name, and Hayden found out what it meant, the eight year old cried.
Eventually it was just family in the room, though it had taken a heck of a lot of effort to finally get their friends to leave, with the promise of future visits, of course.
Satoshi, Sarada, and Hayden were hovering over the bassinette Sayuri was sleeping in, Konan was making sure that they were alright, and Nagato was holding his own sleeping one year old daughter, Amaya, as he spoke quietly with Sasuke.
Naruto herself smiled slightly.
After growing up without a family, it was nice for her dream to have come true.
Please review! :)
I chose the name Sayuri because it translates to 'small lily'. I figured it could be Naruto's way to honor both Hayden and the cousin she never had the chance to meet. As for Amaya, Konan and Nagato's little girl…her name means 'night rain,' and considering they're the leaders of Ame and her father has that trick with his rain…I couldn't resist.
Anyway, Sayori was born a year and eight months after Hayden moved in with her new family, which was in April 2008, a few months before when Sirius' scene during the last chapter took place.
And yes, I'm aware that the series actually took place from 1980-1997, and then the epilogue in 2016 or so. However, I know more about what we have now than what they had available back in the 80s and 90s, so I'll keep it in this millennia.
By the way guys, sorry about the false update earlier. I accidentally posted an update for one of my other stories on this one. Oops.
