Naruto would not lie and say she was smart. She knew she wasn't. She was dead last for a reason. But even she could tell she wasn't in her village anymore.

She looked around her. The world was a blank slate around her. White, but with three doors hovering in mid air. Above each was a name plate. Naruto, Harry, and Tom.

"What is this place?" She asked out loud.

"My guess is it's where our three minds are connected." She jumped. Looking to where the voice originated. She saw a reptilian man, with red eyes, sliced nostrils, and dark hair. It was hard to place what his age was, he seemed ageless.

"Our minds?" She asked tilting her head to the side. "If this is a dream it's fucked up."

The man shook his head, he looked down at her. "I do not believe that this is a dream." He started to walk to the last door.

"Hey! Where the hell are you going? You're just going to leave me here? I just fucking appear here, and your leaving me all alone?"

The man spun to face her, his eyes glowing with his anger. "No one speaks like that to Lord Voldemort!"

Naruto burst out laughing. "Voldemort? That can't be your real name!"

He sneered at her. "And what is your name? If it's so much better?"

The fourteenth year old pointed at him, and a blinding grin on her face. "My name is Naruto Uzumaki! Dattebane!"

Voldemort raised an eyebrow, "fishcake spiral?"

Her face went red. "Whatever, at least mine doesn't sound fake! Like yours is much better"

He smirked at her. "It means: flight from death."

She grumbled. "Alright so it is better than mine whatever. You probably gave it to yourself, so of course it's cool." She turned to the first door. 'Harry's door'.

Voldemort followed her gaze. He sighed. He knew what he was. A horcruxes. And now he was one, his mind was more clear then it had been for a long time. And now he knew making so many horcruxes had damaged his mind.

Only two things he understood: how his mind was so clear at that moment, and how the small blond was there too.

He studied her. She exuded power. It wasn't magic, but it was like it. His instincts were telling him not to get on her bad side. There was also something demonic just underneath the surface.

He wasn't sure who she was, but he was sure she was not from Britain. She seemed Asian, but her accent was nothing like he'd heard before. The marks on her face that seemed like whiskers was another thing. They didn't look like scars, but too precise to be birthmarks.

I'm going to my mind, I suggest you do the same. We'll talk tomorrow." He closed the door before the girl could say anything.

He needed to meditate.

Naruto huffed, stomping into her mind. She found herself the sewers. She sighed. She walked up to the kyuubi's cage.

"Hey! What the hell did you do furball?"

The giant fox lifted his head from his paws. And rolled his eyes. "I did nothing brat."

Naruto growled. "Then how the fuck are we here? And where the fuck is here?"

Kybi sighed, "we're in a different universe."

Naruto blinked." Universe? Is that a type of ramen?"

Kybi glared at her. "I know your not that stupid."

Naruto gave an apologetic smile, "sorry, it's just...how's that possible?" The fox looked at her and started to explain .

"From what I understand, they were in the boy's, Harry, mind. And we're here to protect him from the man you just met."

Naruto cocked her head. "He was creepy, sure, but he doesn't seem that bad."

Kybi nodded, "that's because I healed his mind. Whether he and Harry knows it or not we're all connected now. That means I will heal them just as I do for you."

Naruto nodded. She scratched the back of her head. "I guess this means I'm not going to make it back."

Kybi shook his head. "Time has paused in our universe. When Voldemort is defeated, we'll be able to go home."

"How do you know that?"

"I don't, but we're here to protect the kit. So it stands to reason that once we're done we'll go back."

She nodded. Eyebrows furrowing. "That man, Voldemort, how can we protect Harry? We're in his mind."

Kybi sighed. "He is, but only part of the hole." Naruto narrowed her eyes.

"Explain fuzziness."

...

The next day the two met up out in what Naruto dubbed: 'the neutral zone'

Voldemort had come to no conclusions while he was meditating. Which was annoying.

Naruto for her part learned a lot from the kyuubi. Apparently when the Lady summoned then, she imparted her knowledge to the kyuubi. So if she knew it, Kyubi knew it too.

Voldemort sighed, looking at the blond. "Miss Uzumaki-"

Naruto cut him off. "Call me Naruto!" She pouted. Voldemort refused to think of it as cute.

"Fine... Naruto. Where are you from."

She tilted her head. Thinking about it. She decided to stick to the basics. "I'm from the elemental nations, the leaf village in the fire country."

Voldemort hummed. "I've never heard of that place before."

She grinned at him. "I expect not. Apparently I'm in a new universe. So it makes sense."

The dark lord blinked at her then sighed. "Can you explain your conclusions?"

Naruto explained it as kyuubi did, but without telling him about the fox. This man was likely going to be her only constant human interaction, she didn't want him to fear her.

Voldemort nodded when she finished. "I can see why you were summoned. You feel even more powerful than the old fool."

Naruto blushed. She wasn't sure who he was comparing her to, but she got the feeling it was a very nice thing to say.

"Kakashi-sensei would've been better." She mumbled, pulling at one of her pigtails.

Voldemort was not in the mood to boost the girls self confidence. He was no good at it, he didn't have the patience for bullshiting. So he settled for a compromise.

"If this kakashi was better, then the magic would've brought him, not you."

Naruto smiled, and nodded. This guy... He was like Iruka. He... believed in her. She would not fail!

Voldemort gestured her to follow him, and lead her to Harry's door. "Do you want to meet our..." He trailed off, not sure how to describe them.

"Mind-roommates! Dattabane!" Naruto exclaimed.

Voldemort nodded his thanks. "Mind-roommate?"

"Hell yeah!"Naruto pumped her hand into the air. Together they walked through the door.

...

They popped out into a cupboard, shrunk to form comfortably. Naruto looked around. "Why are we in a closet?" She tried to open the door, and he hand padded through.

Voldemort was doing the same but he was the first who noticed the small child. Who was the one he tried to kill, sleeping in a basket?

Voldemort clutched at Naruto's arm for support. Naruto turned to give him an ear full for startling her, she wasn't used to touches that didn't hurt. She saw the babe, and couldn't say anything for a bit.

They both registered the smell, wrinkling their noses at it. Voldemort moved first. He was jerky, but he managed.

"I'll deal with the diaper."

Naruto nodded. "I'll deal with any diaper rash he may have."

They worked to getter in silence, quickly Harry was in a new diaper. Naruto was surprised but pleased she was able to touch the boy. Naruto looked at her. "He hasn't been fed in several hours."

Voldemort hesitated. "If you had milk, would you be able to feed him?"

Naruto nodded. "I helped a lot in the nursery at the orphanage before I was kicked out."

Voldemort blinked. Taking in what the girl had said. She was an orphan. Probably kind, if she helped with the babies. And finally... He didn't know what to make of her being kicked out. He never was. Exercised, yes. Avoided, yes. Bullied, yes, but that was before he thought of fighting back at them. But even after all of that he never was kicked out. So... What did Naruto do?

Even as he was thinking, he waved his hand and a bottle of warm milk appeared.

Naruto blinked at it. "So you really can do magic. I know you just cleaned the diaper, but this is... Wow."

She picked up the bottle, happy she could, and gently put it to the baby's lips. Harry's instincts kicked in and instantly started sucking. He finished the whole bottle. Naruto picked him up, and burped him. Laying him back down.

Truthfully she was pissed. This kid was all alone. And obviously was starting to be abused. She turned to Voldemort.

"We need to take care of him, obviously whoever had him now won't." Voldemort nodded.

"I agree. What these people are doing to them. But I think we're only mental constructs."

"Wow, wow, wow, less big words. Or my head with explode Database!"

Voldemort rolled his eyes. "We can't be touched, or be seen by thoughts who are not in our mental link."

Naruto nodded, still slightly confused, but decided to ask kybi about it.

"Voldemort... I'm worried for him."

The dark lord nodded. "I am as well."

A.N yes I know voldy is really O.C but I wanted him to be more sympathetic and you know can actually like him. I'll try to keep him as close as possible without him trying to kill babies.

And Naruto is too, but I wanted to make my own personality for her. She will have her moments of over confidence. But that will only happen if it's her life on the line.
