Snake Lords

"Takes place around when Naruto comes back with Jiriya. Sasuke is still with Orochimaru. So yeah, they're all around 15 or 16. A Naruto and Harry Potter Crossover. I'm not sticking to the plots of either series."

On with the story!

Chpt 16: The Three Snake Lords

…………………………

"A-alright... I'll come, just p-promise that nothing bad will happen to me..." Malfoy hesitantly agreed, it seemed the better choice of the two. To perish, or to stay alive. The boy rolled his eyes.

"I won't promise anything. Now come with me, we have a long way to walk. You need only the clothes on your back." The boy said as he saw Malfoy start to pick up his belongings. He grabbed Malfoy around the waist and jumped out the five story window, and set him down to his feet. "Come." He commanded. And Malfoy came, but not without second thoughts. What had he just gotten into?

…………………………

"Are we there yet?" Malfoy whined. They had been walking for almost three hours. The boy in black spun around faster than you could blink and punched Malfoy in the diaphragm.

"Listen, if you ask me that one more time, I swear, I will lose my temper!" He hissed in annoyance. He almost never lost his temper, and when he did, even the devil himself would wet his pants. Malfoy struggled to his feet.

"But we've been walking for ages! Can't we get there any faster?"

"You want to get there faster? Oh, I'll give you 'faster'!" He slung Malfoy over his back and began walking in a straight line.

"This is faster? How can this be faster? We're going the same speed as before!" The boy stuffed something fuzzy into Malfoys' mouth and started to jog.

"Listen, we will get there faster, only if you shut up!" His eyes closed and he began to run even faster. Soon, he was clocking at over 60 mph. Then, he held up his hand, with two fingers bent down, and a blue flash erupted from his feet. Malfoy was able to spit the thing out of his mouth and look at where they were going.

"C-CLIFF!" He yelled. They were going at speeds unimaginable, and heading straight for the edge of a gaping chasm. The boy just ignored him, and jumped right off the edge. "WHAT ARE YOU DOING? IF YOU'RE GOING TO COMMIT SUICIDE, DON'T DRAG ME ALONG WITH YOU!"

"For the very last time, shut the FUCK UP!" He took out something that looked metallic, and clouted Malfoy over the head with it. Then, as he fell through the air, dazed, it was slashed across his stomach. "Now keep your mouth shut."

The boy took hold of Malfoy again, and turned around. The rock face went by quickly as they fell, but that didn't matter. He stuck out his free hand and both of his feet to touch the wall. They were shining a light blue color. With a grunt, he slid them along the wall, and slowly but surely, their descent was slowed until they were clinging to the wall like Spiderman.

He slowly climbed down the wall a little ways, then jumped outwards once again. This time, he only fell a short way before his feet touched solid ground. He dropped Malfoy to the ground.

"Oh God… I'm bleeding to death…" He groaned holding his stomach.

"Hey, did you understand the 'no talking' thing? Suck it up and follow me." Malfoy just rolled over whimpering. "Ugh…" He grunted, pushing back his hair back with his hand. "I don't have time for this. Ok, fine. Have it your way." He grabbed one of Malfoys' legs and started to drag him along the ground.

He walked forwards a short way, and then took a left turn. The floor along which they walked began to slant downwards slowly. Soon, the night sky was gone, and only darkness remained. He took another left turn, and another, and another. They just kept coming. Not only that, but the ground was getting steeper and steeper.

Then, it suddenly flattened out. Faint torches in the wall shone across an undrground lake. Then the boy just continued walking, on the water! If he was walking on it, then it can't be water. Must be some kind of an illusion. However, Malfoy was left behind

"H-hey! You can't just leave me here!" he yelled, still holding his bleeding stomach.The boy stopped and turned around.

"If you don't want to be left here, then come on..." And he continued walking. Malfoy staggered forwards, but when his foot reached the 'illusion', his foot went straight through, throwing him off balence.

"Hey, this is water! Then, you're... walking... on the water... and..." Malfoy was comepletely bamboozled. If he was using a spell, he would have used a wand. But he hadn't seen a single splinter of wood anywhere. Is this guy human? Malfoy thought.

"If you can't walk across, just swim." He mumbled. This kid was trying his patience to the edge. Why do we have to use him? He thought. Anyone else would do... but this guy... He's so whiney and completely ignorent! Sigh... I guess they have their reasons... event if they're pointless.

He reached the edge and waited for Malfoy to flounder his way across to the other side. When he got there, they began their tedious march yet again. This time, it was only a short way. They reached a metal door with a huge, coiled white snake engraved in the center. The same image as the one that was on his headband. He grabbed Malfoys' arm and dragged him through it. I mean literally. They went through it as if it were a hologram.

Tons of people, all dressed in similar outfits as the boy, walked through the humungous hallway, dissappearing or coming out of the many white snake doors that were placed along the walls. The place was huge! It was maybe twice the size of the Great Hall. Now that's saying something. The door they were heading to was the only door that looked different from the rest. Instead of it being a white snake, it was a blood red shade with little black commas placed every which where.

Malfoy couldn't really tell, but when they approached the door, the boys eyes flashed some weird color, and the door swung open. He was flung upon the ground stomach first. Unfortunately for him, that really hurt! You know, with his stomach and all. When he looked up,two mysterious figures sat upon a raised platform in the middle of the chamber. The boy was kneeling on one knee in front of them. Some sort of hushed convesation was going on between the three. Then, the boy got up and gestured for Malfoy to stand up as well.

"Well well well. So this is 'Draco Malfoy', the one I've heard so much about." One of the black silhouettes said. Their voice was made up of something like amusement and boredom.

"Yes, and he's agreed to help us... Isn't that thoughtful of him?" The other voice was horriblly cold and sounded like water hissing on an iron. The second mans' face lifted up to reveal two bloodred eyes and and two slitted holes where a nose was supposed to go. "But, before we continue, I think some introductions will be necessary."

"Y-y-you... you c-can't be h-him!" Malfoy was scared to death. If it was who he thought it was, then he hadthrown himself out of the frying pan and into the fire.

"Oh yes, I am." He hissed. "Your new Lord and Master. Lord Voldemort." Malfoy almost puked. If he knew that 'he-who-must-not-be-named' was involved, he would have rather committed suicide. "And this is my new associate, Orochimaru." The one who had first spoke out raised his head up as well. His face was pure chalk-white, except for a small area around his eye, which was purple. And his eyes, a sickly golden-green color with a slitted pupil, were paralyzing.

"I'm sure you know him already, right?" He gestured to the boy who had brought him here. Malfoy just sort of twitched his head showing he had no clue who he was, as he couldn't move any other part of his body. "You didn't tell him yet?" This 'Orochimaru' guy sounded amused.

"I didn't think it was necessary at the time. And there could have been someone eavesdropping. I don't need my name getting out in the open." He was now leaning against the wall looking bored. "Since you seem so insistant for me to introduce myself, my name is..." His head turned to the side sharply.

"What is it?"

"Is it just me, or do you two feel something here is watching us?" The still anonymous boy said. Just like what happend a few minutes ago, his eyes flashed to a different color, but it was still so fast that Malfoy couldn't tell what color it was.

How odd, it looks so familiar... haven't I seen that somewhere before? The boy thought. Ah, no matter anyways. He flipped something shiny out of the inside of his jacket and flung it at something in the shadows. Something that looked suspiciously like dust trickled to the floor.

"Well, what was it?" Orochimaru asked.

"I don't really know, but I feel like I've seen it somewhere. Anyhow, I doubt it was anything too bad. Probably one of our mens' practice sessions gone awry. Yet, It still worries me that something got in here."

…………………………

A lone form sped across the Hogwarts grounds. It miraculously jumped up so high, that it was able to grab a fifth story window. Then, it swung up and through said window. He sped through hallways and flung himself through the Gryffindor portrait hole saying a hurried "Ingeous bane".

"Gaara!" Temari yelled. Gaara was soaked to the skin from rain and holding his knees, panting hard. "Oh my God! Where have you been? We've been so worried!" She pushed her schoolwork away and began hugging him to death.

"Not now Temari..." he choked out. "Get everyone out here, stat! Something bad has happened!"

"But..."

"Now! Temari..." He was getting a dangerous look in his eyes. Before he could even blink, Temari had ran off, gotten everybody, and was right back where she had started.

"Gaara... I WAS KIDDING WHEN I SAID TO JUST GO OFF LIKE THAT! YOU HAD ME WORRIED SICK!" Amanda screamed in his face. "DON'T YOU EVER DO THAT AGAIN!"

"Amanda, just shut up for a minute. This is really important."

"Oh... you didn't just say what I thought you just said..." Everyone reacted quickly and grabbed her as she lunged towards him. "NOBODY TELLS ME TO SHUT UP! WHY I OUGHTA MPMPPH!" Gaara just stuffed a bunch of sand into her mouth.

"You guys, we have a serious problem on our hands!" He gasped. "He's come back! And he's working for them! It's something huge!"

"Wait a second, define 'problem', 'he', 'them', and 'huge'." Naruto said stupidly.

"It's...!"

…………………………

"So, are you going to tell him your name, or do I have to do it for you?"

"Malfoy, listen very closely because I'm only going to say this once." The boy lifted Malfoy off his feet and into the air. "I am the third Snake Lord. Apprentice only to them." He pointed to both Orochimaru and Voldemort who were still sitting upon the raised platform. "And second to no one. My name is," He paused for a dramatic effect, showing off his two pointed, fanglike teeth as he did so, looking all the more like the snake his headband symbolized.

"Uchiha, Sasuke."

…………………………

Oh dear, Sasuke's back in action, Orochimaru and Voldemort have revealed themselves as the Snake Lords, and Malfoy's in a heap of trouble. Can't get much worse than that. Well, think on the bright side! Gaara's back! It seems like Sasuke's much different then before doesn't it? Seems like he did something to himself, doesn't it? (wink wink!) Anywho, hope you enjoyed this chapter! Sorry it was put up so late, I've been kind of busy with studying and all. I hope to get the next one up, oh, most likely Sunday if not earlier. Till then!
