A.N. Thank you Kimi-1973 for your review of chapter 2 and I am sorry that I did not thank you at the end of the last chapter like the rest.
In this chapter I will first put in a part of what is happening in the wizarding world since this chapter is set after the three children turn six actually it is set on the fifth anniversery of Halloween.
I do not own. You do not sue.
Chapter 4
The office was dome shaped with a big oak desk set in the middle of it. There were strange silver gadgits that whired and spit out plumes of coloured gas on tables. the walls had several portaits that moved and talked amounst themselves. By the fireplace sat two men. The first man was pudgy and wore a green pinstrip suit and held a green bowler hat. The other man was old with along white beard and white hair and wore a purple robe with a pointy purple hat on his lap.
"Dumbledore, you are certain that Mr. Potter is still alive?" the first man asked.
"Yes Cornelius, I checked the book as soon as I was told about the shadow golem desolving. He was still in the book so he is still alive. Have you tried to locate him with the magic detectors in the ministry?" Dumbledore asked.
"Yes, that shadow golem showed as Harry magically untill it desolved and now Harry is nowhere to be found in England. I asked the other ministries to check their detectors for him but so far he can not be found in any European country. I am hoping that Asia is willing to help search for our young hero but they are notoriously tight lipped about their countries magical communities. The Americas have all ready told me that he is not there and I have been told by half of the African countries that he is not there. The other half are still searching and should get back to me soon. What are we to do if we can not find him?" Cornelius asked.
"Do not worry Cornelius. We will find him, hopefully soon, but if not then when his letter is writen for Hogwarts we can put a tracking charm on it. That's it!" Dubledore said.
"What's it, Dubledore." Cornelius said.
"Don't you see. We will write letters to Harry Potter and put tracking charms on them. Then we will send them out with long range owls to deliver them. When Harry gets them he will open them up and we can find him." Dumbledore said.
"Truely brillient Dumbledore. The ministry can send over a hundred letters, atleast one should get to Harry, and then we can rescue him from where ever he is and bring him back to the wizarding world." Cornelius said as he headed out of the office.
Dumbledore looked pensive as he thought about how his plans were slipping away. 'I needed that child under my control and now I do not know where he is or what he is learning.' Dumbledore thought as he looked at his pet Pheonix, Fawkes, who had not uttered a single note of song for almost five years.
------------------------------
The three children sat at a table in their favourite ramen shop with their two teachers and the Hokage. They were celebrating the fifth anniversity of the children's bonding and everybody there was having a great time. Then Kakashi, Sirius, and the Hokage put a box on the table in front of each of the children.
"What is this?" They asked.
"Open them and see." Kakashi said.
The three children quickly tore off the paper and opened up the boxes. Inside the boxes was a piece of metal with the symbol of hiden leaf village on it. When they took them out of the boxes they found that they were attached to pieces of cloth. The three children looked at the adults with them.
"These are forehead protectors, the symbol of a shinobi, does this mean that we are genin now." They asked.
"Yes. It means that you three are genin now. Since you are, here is your first mission. It is a C class mission but I am sure you can handle it. You will be protecting the daughter of Lord Hakashi. She is of marring age and Lord Hakashi has been in talks with other Lords to get her married to one of their sons. Untill he has a marrage contract signed you are to make sure that she is not in any compromising situations. You are expected in the morning to start your duties." the Hokage said.
"Yes Lord Hokage." they said as they finished their meals.
The next morning found the three children and both of their teachers out in front of the gates of Konohagakure. They walked alittle way from the gates and slipped into the shadows to transport themselves to the Hakashi compond. They walked up to the gate of the compond and saw armed retainers guarding the gates.
"Who are you and what are you here for?" one of the guards asked.
"We are shinobi from hidden leaf. Lord Hakashi hired us to guard his daughter. He is expecting us." Kakashi said.
"Thank god, come in I will get Lord Hakashi." the guard said as he opened a small door in the gate. They entered the compond and saw more armed retainers all over the grounds. "Please wait here while I get the lord." the guard said as they nodded he left.
They stood by the gate for several minutes untill the door opened and out stepped an old man. The old man was about sixty with a stooped figure and walking stick. He walked over to them and looked at all five of them one at a time. "I am Lord Hakashi. I am sorry to say that I might have under stated the situation when I asked for guards from your Hokage. Last night someone tried to kidnap my daughter, they failed but they may try again." Lord Hakashi said.
"Lord Hakashi you do not have to fear for your daughter. The team that was sent to guard your daughter is one of the best teams that hidden leaf has to offer, even if they are quite young, they are very well trained." Kakashi said.
"Very well, I hope that you are right. Hopefully the people from the sand lands will be the right potentual husband for my daughter." the lord said.
"Lord with all due respect, any Lord of the sand land will take one look at your daughter and leave." Harry said.
"And why is that young man?" the lord asked.
"Well... they are a different culture, sir. If your daughter went before them in the clothes of a woman of the fire lands, as she would normally wear, they would think her a wonton woman unfit for even their youngest sons to marry." Harry said.
"I did not consider that. Do you happen to know what is the right form of dress for my daughter's station." the lord asked, when they nodded, "Great then can you get her ready to meet with them. I wish this meeting to work out, I do wish for her to marry well and the son of a Lord of the sand lands, with my lands so close to the sand lands, will be a great match." the lord said.
They were led through the complex to a door near the middle of the compond. The lord knocked on the door and opened it. Inside the room there were several armed retainers around the walls and on the balcony. In the middle of the room was a sleybed with pink sheets. A makeup table with a mirror sat to the right of the bed and on the other side of the bed were three doors. Two of the doors were opened and one could see alot of clothes behind both doors. There were vases full of flowers all over the place and the air was heavy with perfume.
A young woman sat in front of the mirror getting her hair brushed out by another older woman. The young woman had light blond hair, almost white, and silvery blue eyes. She had a button nose and full lips all perfectly placed on an almond shaped face. She turned to the door to see who had come in and they noticed that she had a dagger unsheathed in her lap. When she saw her father she quietly resheathed the dagger and got up from the chair.
While Lord Hakashi and his daughter talked, Harry went over to the third door and looked at what was behind it. The door led to a big bathroom that was done in marble with a sunken bathtub in the middle. He looked around the room and did not see any other way in or out of it, though the simi transpartent skylight could be broken through but not without alerting everybody in the suite. He went back to the others and told them of what he found.
While Harry was looking into the bathroom, Naruto was sniffing around the room and on the balcony. When he returned to the others he listened to Harry about the bathroom. He then discribed the smell to them that he believed to be that of the person that tried to kidnap the lady. He informed them that it did not smell human and that the fox spirit thought it was familiar but could not tell from were it had smelt it before.
Lord Hakashi finished talking with his daughter and came over to them. He told them that the people from the sand lands were to be there at noon and they were to get his daughter ready to be presented to the group. He then left to prepare for his guests arrival and they spent the next several hours getting her ready. They told her about the proper way to greet the verious lords of the sand lands and went trough her wardrobe to find the right clothes for her to wear. When they were done she was wearing puffy silk pants, a silk shirt, and a veil that covered her hair and lower face. Shortly before noon they put kohl around her eyes to finish her look and were ready to face the deligation from the sand lands.
They left the room with Sasuke in front, Sirius and Kakashi were at ether side and Harry and Naruto brought up the rear of the group. The Lady Hakashi and her maid were in the center of them as they made their way to the reception area of the complex. When they arrived they saw that the deligation from the sand lands had already arrived. Lord Hakashi was greeting a man near his own age and just to the side of the man was a younger man that looked similar to the older man.
The young man was six feet tall with broad shoulders. He was wearing a purple turban and traveling cloak. His face had a squared jaw, high cheek bones, an aqualine nose, full lips and steel grey eyes. When Lady Hakashi and the young man's eyes meet they started toward eachother. Within heartbeats they had covered the distence between them and touched. A light, briter then the midday sun in the desert, shone from the two young people in the middle of the room. When the light cleared everybody was trying to figure out what had happened.
Sirius came out of his stupor first and calmed the lords that were in a huff over what had happened. He then started to explain that both of their children were soulmates. That the light they had seen was the gods way of informing everybody of the marrage between the two people. Both fathers inevitably accepted the marrage and quickly wrote out a marrage contract. They decided to have the wedding as soon as possible and Lord Hakashi asked the shinobi too stay untill the wedding to keep the two from consumating their marrage untill after the wedding.
They agreed if the Hokage allowed it and Lord Hakashi said that he would talk to the Hokage to have a new contract made up immediatly. The next two weeks passed with wedding plans and the arrival of guest for the wedding. Because it was the wedding between Lady Hakashi of the fire lands and Prince Yokota of the sand lands, Lords and Ladys of both lands were arriving along with both kages and their Anbu guards.
"Harry." an anbu of hidden leaf said.
"What do you want? Naruto is guarding Lady Hakashi, Sasuke is guarding Prince Yokota and I have just finished going over the security for the wedding and had to deal with a sand anbu." Harry stated.
"Well the Hokage said that you three were in charge and, as team leader of the anbu, I wanted to know what you wished the anbus to do for security?" the anbu leader asked.
"Hopefully nothing, we have taken everything into concederation. Remember that we are shadow manipulaters, worst case we will just move the entire wedding somewhere else. If that happens then you will have to take over guarding the wedding, other wise sit and enjoy the wedding." Harry said.
"Ok, see you after the wedding." the anbu leader said as he walked away.
The wedding day was clear and cloudless. It had been decided that the wedding was to be held outside of the compond walls. After all the guest were all seated, the wedding started, about half way through a dark smudge was spotted in the forest. Harry transformed into his Pheonix form and went to see what was causing the smudge, moments later he came back.
"Sirius put the tarp over the wedding party." Harry whispered to Sirius.
(Sirius' P.O.V)
I nodded to Harry and quickly put the tarp over the wedding. Shortly after I finished putting the tarp over the heads of everybody I heard a scream. I turned toward the scream and saw that an army of demons were at the edge of the forest. The shadows quickly solidified into bars around us and I realized that the children had moved to protect the wedding.
the anbus from hidden sand village were upset but I did not listen to what they were saying because I had noticed that my charges had removed their wards. Those wards, I made to control their powers, came off as they readied for battle. I hope that they prepared for that, without their wards they could kill the entire wedding procession without trying.
The children took three steps forward and stopped. I guess that Sasuke has not opened his eyes yet because the demons have not started to drop like flies. The demons charged at the children and Harry opened his mouth. I braced for the song, I never heard it, but the demons obviously did because they started to drop like flies.
The weaker demons died as soon as they heard the death song. Sasuke must have opened his eyes because I saw alot of demons drop dead in his line of sight. I looked over to Naruto and saw that he had transformed into his human form of his Kitsune form and had some sort of plant in his hand lashing at the demons. Demon parts quickly fell before his lash as he slashed into the demon army.
As they were dealing with the demons I noticed that three young people and an adult had come close to the shadow barrier. I felt the pull from the three children, the same pull that I felt with my charges but that was impossible unless... I tuned in to what they were saying.
"...well then let us out." the Kazekage said.
"Hmm...No!" the sandy blond haired kid said.
"Why you..." the Kazekage started to say.
"Can you deal with the leaks?" I asked.
The child looked over his shoulder and saw the demons starting to go around my three charges. He nodded and put himself into a possion that put him half way between the wedding and the demon army. The other two children possioned themselves on ether side of him in a simicircle. The sandy blond haired child removed a cork from an urn on his back and released sand into the air. He made a hand seal and the sand wound around the frist demon that came close to him. He then clinched his hand and the demon was crushed by the sand. He kept doing this, two and three demons at a time, would be crushed. The girl of the group pulled out a fan and started to slash at the air. Every time she slashed another demon would be slashed to pieces. The last child of the group look like a cat in his suit he pulled out a battle golem and started to take down demons one at a time.
I turned back to my charges and saw that they had transformed into their animagi forms. Harry was flying over the demons trailing his tail feathers, that had a very strong contact poision on them, killing hundreds. Sasuke had decided that his eyes were not enough and started to sink his fangs into demons that had their eyes closed. Naruto was still taking down several demons at a time in his form.
As the wedding was wrapping up I saw that the demon army was down to two. The general and the demon lord were all that was left and the children started to tire. The child with the sand was trying to deal with the general and my charges were having trouble with the demon lord. I decided that now was the time to step in so to speak.
"He is not going to get stronger in the next five minutes, so finish it." I yelled.
The child seemed to find the strength in himself and with one final push he crushed the general of the demon army. I crossed the distance between me and the children as quickly as possible, after checking on them I went over to my charges. I tapped Harry on the shoulder and when he moved his head past the sound barrier I told him to finish off his demon. He nodded and pulled his head back into the barrier. My three charges pulled out their wands and three flashes of green light appeared. The last demon was dead. I handed my threee charges their wards back and they put them on.
(Normal P.O.V.)
Harry put his ward back on, a shiver ran up his spine when the metal band touched his throat, he knew that he will lose his voice but it was a small price to pay to protect everybody else. Sasuke put his ward over his eyes and immediately went blind for the next two hours. Naruto turned back into his human form and put his ward on his wrist. After they finished with their wards they walked out of the battle zone right over to Sirius.
"Harry can you bring Takara here?" Sirius asked.
Harry nodded and went over to the nearest shadow. The shadow solidified and then parted to show a woman. She was tall, around five foot six, with long straight black hair, turquoise eyes, and purt lips all set on a rounded face. She looked around and saw Sirius.
"Pulled me all the way here to gloat. I should..." She started to say.
"Actually, Takara, I thought that you would like to meet you charges. If you would rather not than Harry can always send you back." Sirius said with a smile.
Takara at first glared at Sirius untill the words that he said started to sink into her head. Her eyes widened with suprise at what he said and as she was about to ask, Sirius stepped out of the way so she could see the three young people from hidden sand village. Takara went over to the children that would be her responsiblity to train.
"You three help Takara with her charges. I have to talk to the Hokage and Kazekage about this. Those children will have to stay at hidden leaf for a few months to get accustomed to haveing their Deamos with them and so she can begin their training in demon hunting, like I did with you three. If you hear shouting don't come running this is going to be messy enough without adding to it." Sirius said to them.
They nodded and walked over to Takara as Sirius walked over to the two argueing kages. As the three of them got closer to the group they heard Takara explaining to the three children about her duty to them and what they were suppose to do for their home land. She had just told them her name and asked for their names as the three of them came up to the group.
The boy with sandy blond hair and an urn on his back answered. "I am Gaara, this is my sister, Temari," he said pointing at the girl with blond hair in two pigtails,"and my older brother, Kankuro."he said pointing at the boy that was dressed up like a cat. "We are commonly called the sand siblings. Where there is one the other two are close by. We are not that close but they think that we are. This is the first time that I have felt sated, is this the way it is suppose to be?" Gaara asked hopefully.
"Yes Gaara, this is how it is suppose to be. I will teach you three everything that you will need to know. First we need to find out where we will be staying." Takara said.
"Sirius is fixing it so for the first few months you will be staying and training at hidden leaf and then off to hidden sand forever. We will help you pack your things Takara. You should begin the bonding ritual so that they can not stop you four from staying together." Naruto said.
Takara nodded and pulled out her dagger. A few quick cuts and an exchange of blood and they were bonded. Just as they finished the ritual the man that was with the children came over.
"It seems that we are going to be staying at Konohagakure for a few months and then its back to Sunagarkure. Are you really a Deamos? I have heard of them but I never thought that I would meet one. I am their jonin trainer. The jonin trainer for those three told me that I should pick out my hospital room and start decorating it since I will be spending so much time there." the sand jonin said.
"Yes Kakashi ends up in the hospital at least once a week, for a day or two, so you should reserve your room. Hunters are at least twice as strong as regular shinobi, so forget you are training genin and think anbu when it comes to strength because that is how strong they are. Now if you do not mind I have to get my charges fed." Takara said as she got up with her three charges and walked over to the battle zone. She drew her dagger and cut into the first demon that she came to and pulled out its liver. She cut the liver up and hand fed it to her charges one piece at a time.
Sirius came back at that time with both kages behind him. The kages were still argueing over Takara and the three children in her care, untill they looked over at her and saw what the three children were eating. Their eyes widened and they looked a little green.
"Oh.. did I forget to mention that Hunters need a steady supply of demon meat. That is another reason for them to stay in Konohagakure for the first few months, my charges set up a hunting ground nearby for themselves. They would not mind sharing for a little while. You three go eat you have not had a proper meal in over two weeks." Sirius said.
The children nodded and went over to the battle zone. They started a fire and started to cook several pieces of demon for them to eat. The kages looked sick and quickly agreed to the arrangement. They left to the wedding reception and Kakashi grabbed the other jonin and pulled him to the reception.
Two days latter, the battle field was cleaned up and Harry had moved all the demon meat to their home for future consumption through the shadows. All the guests had started to leave back to their homes. Harry explained to the Kazekage that he would retrieve any orders for the sand shinobi from the shadows and sent the Kazekage and his anbu guard back to Sunagarkure through the shadows. The rest of them gathered together for the shadows to take them back to Konohagakure.
