Hi guys and gals. Here is the next chapter. It is not as long as the last one, but I did warn you that would happen. My special guess for today is Kurenai-san.

Kurenai-san- Nice to be here.

M.S.- Now for the dreaded disclaimer. How many times do I have to repeat the obvious?

Kurenai-san- Every single chapter.

M.S.- Well, since you are my special guest, you get to do the disclaimer Kurenai-san.

Kurenai-san- Okay. Moon Spirt, in no way owns the Harry Potter series or Naruto the t.v. show. Anyone that thinks otherwise can not see the obvious changes in the focus. Enjoy.

"Are you blind ref? That was a foul. Huh uh. Oh, hi guys I didn't see you come in. How was detention and why did it run so late?" Ron asked when Harry woke him from his dream after they all came back from detention. Neville said goodnight to everyone and headed towards the boys' dormitory to get some sleep. Ron fell asleep in the common room waiting for everyone. Once Neville left, Harry told Ron about what happened in the forest, accidently skipping the conversations with the centaur.

"Hinata are you okay?" Ron said in surprise.

"Yes I am. See not even a scratch. I fell down the other side of the hill soon after I pushed Harry down. Then I headed for the edge of the forest. Shino and Kiba found me shortly after that," Hinata explained with the cover story that Shino, Kiba, and she agreed upon.

"Really, how did you know what way was the exit?" Ron asked.

"The village that Shino, Kiba, Akamaru, Kurenai-sensei, and I come from is surrounded by forest, so I am used to navigating in them," Hinata answered.

"Hey that reminds me. Shino, Kiba, how did you two find Hinata so fast? From how far Harry said it was after you two left and the fact that you left before Harry told us where he saw her last, you two found her very quickly," Hermione asked in an attempt to find out if there was a spell to do something like that, that they could teach her.

"We found her that quickly because of Akamaru. Hinata, Shino, Akamaru, and I spent tons of time together, so Akamaru knows Hinata's scent by heart," Kiba answered convincingly.

"Um, guys, there's more. The hooded figure was Voldemort. Snape is not after the stone to become rich. He is after it to bring Voldemort back to life," Harry told them. Team 8 shared a knowing look as the second face's identity was reviled.

"Don't say that name!" Ron demanded.

"From what Bane said, Voldemort is coming back and I am on top of his hit list," Harry continued while ignoring Ron's request.

"WILL YOU STOP SAYING THAT NAME!" Ron tried again.

"Now all I have to do is wait for Snape to get the stone, resurrect Voldemort, and get killed," Harry said as he started to get into a panic.

"Harry You-Know-Who won't come after you as long as Dumbledore is here and what the centaurs were doing was predicting the future. Professor McGonagall says that that is a very unreliable form of magic," Hermione said as she tried to relax Harry. They decided to stop there and go to bed since it was already starting to become light out. When Harry was about to enter his bed he saw his invisibility cloak under the covers with a note on it 'Just in case.'

"Okay, let me get this straight. You three meet and had a brief encounter with Voldemort-san, the most feared and powerful evil wizard of the time, in the forest. He is drinking unicorn blood to survive. He is after the Sorcerer's Stone to gain eternal life. He wants Harry dead. Lastly, he is attached to the back of Quirrell-san's head," Kurenai-sensei asked in a calm voice. The students of team 8 just finished telling Kurenai-sensei about what happened the night before. Luckily it is the weekend so they don't have class.

"Hai," Hinata, Shino, and Kiba answered.

"The Hokage is not going to like this. At least you learned wandless magic so you didn't have to worry about Voldemort-san finding out about us. The Hokage might ask whether or not you want to continue this mission. It will not count as a failure if you stop now. What do you three say?"Kurenai-sensei asked. Hinata, Kiba, and Shino gave a quick look towards each other and nodded.

"We will stay," Hinata began.

"There are too many people here that would suffer or die if he came back. A good amount of them our friends," Kiba continued.

"We will not desert our comrades," Shino ended. It was clear that Team 8 was staying.

"Good. I would have been disappointed if you three did want to stop. I will inform the Hokage. You three have exams that you need to study for so go study," Kurenai-sensei ordered.

"Oh man," Kiba whined as the three of them, along with Akamaru left to go study with Harry, Ron, and Hermione.

Letters (anything in italics is thought not written if wrote while writing the letter)

Hokage-sama,

It has been confirmed that the one after the stone is Quirrell-san. He is after the stone to bring back Voldemort-san from the dead. Voldemort-san is an evil wizard that, until twelve years ago, terrorized the wizarding community. If Quirrell-san succeeds then Voldemort-san will become a threat of the wizarding community and, if he finds out about ninja's, the ninja community. The one to defeat him last time was Potter Harry, a student that Team 8 has become friends with. It has become clear to us in a small battle during a detention, that Voldemort-san still has his eyes out for defeating Harry. Hinata has also informed that according to her Byakugan, that Voldemort-san has a substantial amount of potential power. The potential power will probably be reached once Voldemort-san is revived.

Kurenai-san

Hokage Tower Hokage's POV after he read the letter.

'This is getting out of hand,' I think as a light my pipe. 'It is all safe. There is nothing to worry about. Fresh genin would be best since they're used to school. Oh they can handle it, no problem. There will not be ANY life threatening situations. Team 8, that's perfect. Kurenai-san is still used to teaching a large group. She can teach. Everything is perfectly safe. Yeah right. I never should have listened to my advisors. Unfortunately there is nothing I can do right now except offer them a chance back, that they will probably decline, and hope this does not turn into a political nightmare. I will also tell them to not worry about their cover more than their and the lives of others.'

Kurenai-san

If your team ever feels like the mission is over their heads, 'even though it already is' then they are free to come back. The information they have now should be proficient enough to complete the mission. If they end up in a dangerous situation then they are to choose their or other lives over their cover. Also, if they stay because they are not willing to abandon their friends then they can add protecting Potter Harry and all others in Hogwarts along with stopping Quirrell-san and Voldemort-san from getting the stone as part of the mission requirements. I want to see you and your team as soon as you make it back to the village.

Hokage

This is becoming a real headache.

Hogwarts. Kurenai-sensei's POV

'That saves me time from making a reply.' Kurenai-sensei thought as she went to tell her team their new orders.

There you go. Not as long as the last one. Hope it was still good. I am not so sure what Kurenai-sensei would use as a suffix for Voldemort or Professor Quirrell so I used -san because having her just say their last name seemed to informal. Also, since I probably did not do this in any of the othr chapters, I used Potter Harry because I just now remembered that that part of the story would be Japanese, not English. I am sorry if Idid not do that before. Please R&R. And again I would like to thank, diff-r-ent-1 for reading over the chapter.
