For the past few days Naruto's dreams were plagued by the same images over and over again. This night however. This night was different. "CHIDORI!" came the voice again. Flashes of lightning. "Naruto!" This time, he heard his own voice scream. "Why do they hate me? Just because I...!" Naruto tried looking around in the blackness. For some reason this time it felt cramped, making him feel claustrophobic. Everything started turning red. "I'll show them...! I'll...!" Suddenly, the redness disappeared when he heard a woman's voice. "Kit... It's okay... I'm here...they won't hurt you...I won't let them!" After a little while the voice whispered one last sentence to the boy. "Happy Birthday...Kit..." Naruto kept looking in the darkness as the voice faded. "Wait! Don't go! Who are you! WHO AM I?!"
Naruto gasped, panting hard as he opened his eyes. He looked around, he was in the Slytherin boy's dorm in bed. Maybe he should tell Professor Snape about these dreams soon. He eventually got out of bed and got dressed. The blond entered the Slytherin common room and pulled out the muggle Science book and decided to start reading it over again, trying to calm his mind.
Word spread that Harry's going to be Gryffindor's new seeker and he definitely wanted to know what this Quidditch thing is. That morning, during breakfast, he made a decision to do something no Slytherin had ever done before. With Kyu sitting up on top of his head, Naruto tapped Harry's shoulder. The dark haired boy turned his head and smiled smiled at his friend. "Is this seat taken?" He asked gesturing to the empty spot on Harry's left. Harry grinned and placed his arm on the table, holding up his head. "Finally worked up the courage to come sit with your friends have you?" Naruto laughed and Kyu yipped, "You see, Kyu here couldn't stand being apart from you any longer, blame her!" The two laughed and the blond sat down. There were whispers in the great hall. A Slytherin was sitting with the Gryffindors. Everything seemed alright with everyone. Ron however, seemed t be half glaring half pouting at Naruto. The blond in question could feel the eyes of the Weasely on him. Eventually, Naruto heard the Weasley's voice, "You really haven't turned into one of them, have you?" Naruto smiled, "Come around have you? We can be friends again?" The Weasley gave an apologetic smile. "Neville told me about the talk you two had at the hospital wing. After seeing you tackle him to the ground to save his arse, you've gotta be either barking mad, or a good guy!" Harry smirked from behind his goblet, drinking his pumpkin juice. "Maybe he's both." Naruto dramatically gasped, placing a hand on his chest, "Mr. Potter you wound me!" The three laughed, as Hermione sat down next to Ron. "Did you apologize like I TOLD you to?" Hermione said, loud and proudly. Ron rolled his eyes and place his chin on his arms, mumbling to himself.
"Wood's going to show me the basics of Quidditch today, would you like to come learn about Quidditch too?" Harry asked the blond. Naruto rubbed his fingers together, "Is it really okay?" Harry smiled, and practically dragged the blond with him. "Come on, let's go!" Eventually, they met up with Oliver Wood, who was skeptical about letting a Slytherin join them, however after hearing about how the boy saved a Gryffindor he decided to give the boy a chance. Wood and Harry brought a strangely shaking trunk with them. Was there a wild animal in there or something? "Each team has seven players. Three chasers, two beaters, one keeper, and a seeker," Woo points at Harry with the bat he was holding, "That's you." They placed the trunk on a long stretch of grass. Wood moved down and opened the chest, revealing 3 balls, two of which looked like they were shaking under their metal restraints. The older boy pulled out the lighter colored, oddly shaped ball(?) in the middle. "There are three kinds of balls," he said tossing it towards Harry, who caught it, and then tossed it to Naruto, who also caught it. "This one is the Quaffle. The chasers handle the Quaffle and try to put it through one of those three hoops," he said, pointing towards the hoops on the Quidditch field that was near them. Naruto tossed the ball back to Harry, who caught the ball awkwardly. "The keeper, that's me, defends the hoops. With me so far?" Harry looked at Naruto and then back at Wood, tossing it back to the older boy. "I think so," he looked down towards the restrained balls. "What're those?" Wood made and "ah" look on his face as he knelt down, grabbing the bat from earlier. "You better take this," he said, handing the bat to Harry. Wood leaned in and pushed a button to release the restraint on one of the balls, and it instantly fired directly up into the sky. "Whoa!" Was all that came from Naruto as the ball started falling back down. "Careful now, it's coming back," warned Wood. As the ball came back down, Harry swung his arm back and then swung just as the ball came down, whacking it so hard and with such precision, it flew through the hole between the outstretched arms of a statue up on part of the castle. "Huh, not bad Potter. You'd make a fair beater." Harry smiled. "Uh-oh." Came from Wood as the ball started flying back the way it came. Wood went to catch it, but that morning it was humid, and he didn't think about the possibility of water vapor on the ball, and it slipped right out of his hands. It slammed into Wood's stomach and knocked the wind out of him as he let out an "ooough" sound. The ball went for Naruto, who quickly jumped out of the way, next to Harry. The ball sailed back down towards Wood. Naruto quickly grabbed the bat and with the speed of a snake, he slid up over Wood to protect him if this didn't work, and swung his arm with all his strength, and with an audible BANG slammed the ball across the courtyard. This gave Wood enough time to get back up and catch the ball this time. He caught it, but was clearly struggling as he slowly crawled to the trunk and slammed the ball into its place and quickly locked the restrained onto it. "Wha- What was that thing?!" Harry practically shouted. Naruto was laying back in the grass. Wood panted as he settled. "A Bludger, nasty little buggers. But you... are a seeker. Thanks for that, by the way, Naruto." The blond leaned his head up slightly and gave a weak thumbs up before letting his head and arm fall back onto the grass. Wood opened the coat of arms on the top half of the trunk, revealing a shiny golden ball. "The only thing I want you to worry about, is this." He said handing the golden ball to Harry. Naruto had gotten up, the back of his robe now covered in little blades of grass, and a few in his blond hair. "Whoa!" Wood smirked, "The Golden Snitch." Harry looked all over it, "I like this ball." The older boy responded, "Ah you like it now. Just wait, it's wicked fast and damn near impossible to see." Harry looked up at Wood, "What do I do with it?" The older boy nodded his head towards the ball. "You catch it, before the other team's seeker. You catch this, the game is over. You catch this, Potter, and we win." Right as Wood said that last part, the ball unwrapped golden wings and with super speed, flew up. Wood was looking around wildly, to try and see it. But both Harry and Naruto looked right at it, and could see where it was going. The two boys then looked at each other. "Magic is so cool!" Naruto shouted once again. The whole scene did not go unnoticed. There was a gaunt man that had been watching from the entrance to the courtyard, who had now turned, leaving from the way he came.
"One of a wizard's most rudimentary skills is levitation. Or the ability to make objects fly! Do you all have your feathers?" Hermione raised hers into the air and Ron rolled his eyes with his chin on his book. "Good! Don't forget the nice wrist movement we've been practicing! The swish and flick. Everyone." All of the students in class copied the movements. Naruto sat next to Daphne and Hermione. "And enunciate! Wingardium Leviosa! Off you go then!" Everyone was trying to do it. Harry had the pronunciation down, but he kept forgetting the hand movement. Seamus, who was sitting next to Harry, was just... not pronouncing it right at all, but his hand movements were close. Daphne was having issues with the hand movement, her hand kept wanting to flick her wrist near the end. Naruto had too much on his mind to attempt as much. However, he had the wrist movement and pronunciation down, he just was thinking elsewhere, also, he was sort of, you know, pointing at the table and not the feather. Hermione was doing it perfectly, and Ron was well... "Wingardium Leviosaw!" Swing swing swing, the boy swung his arm as if he was trying to kill a bug in the air with his wand. "No, stop stop stop." Hermione said. "You're going to take someone's eye out. Besides you're saying it wrong." Earning an annoyed face from the redhead. "It's LeviOsa. Not Levyosaw." Weird flex but o- "You do it then if you're so clever. Go on! Go on!" Hermione smugly smirked and rolled her eyes. Swish and Flick! "Wingardium Leviosa." Her feather began floating with her movements. Professor Flitwick noticed this almost instantly. "Oh well done! See here everyone! Miss Granger's done it!" Hermione looked smugly at Ron, who rolled his eyes and looked away pouting, crossing his arms onto his books and rested his head on them. Seamus decided to try again. He didn't even do the wrist movement right at all and said "Wingard Leviosa, Wingard-" BOOM! Everyone jumped and turned, looking towards the boy. His face was completely covered in, carbon? and his eyebrows were singed off. His feather had been turned completely black from exploding. Harry clicked his tongue slightly a he spoke. "I think we're going to need another feather over here Professor.
On the way out, Ron could be heard saying "It's LeviOOOOsa, not Levyosaw. Honestly, she's a nightmare, it's no wonder she hasn't got any friends. The girl whom he was just making fun of slammed her shoulder into his as she walked passed him, crying. Harry stopped laughing as everyone stopped. "I think she heard you." Naruto glanced at Daphne, who giggled slightly at what just transpired. "Damn, Ron, and here I thought I was the Slytherin." Naruto joked. The red head rolled his eyes smiling slightly, "Shut up, Naruto!" Hermione didn't even stop once as she continued walking away.
It was Halloween night in the Great Hall. Everyone was enjoying their dinner with many assorted sweets mixed in. At some point, Naruto waved over and from their own perspective tables, leaned back. "Where's Hermione?" Naruto asked, awkwardly in his leaned back position. "Neville said she's been in the girl's bathroom all afternoon crying." The blond sighed. "Damn." They both leaned back up. "I still don't understand why you must associate yourself with those Gryffindors." Came Draco's voice, who was sitting across from Naruto. "Draco listen, y-" SLAM! Came the front doors of the Great Hall. "TROOOOOLLLS! IN THE DUNGEON!" Professor Quirrel ran to the middle of the Great Hall. "TROLLS IN THE DUNGEON!" Both Professor Mcgonagall and Professor Dumbledore stood up, and everyone looked and the man who had just ran in. "Thought you ought to know." He said weakly as his eyes rolled up and he fell forward, fainting. There was a pause for a split second before all hell broke loose, and students were screaming and shouting. Draco and Daphne were screaming, while Naruto sat there confused. How could trolls get into the school? Everyone started to get up and rush out before Professor Dumbledore shouted. "SSSIIIIILLLEEEENNNCCEE!" Everyone stopped and turned towards him. He spoke in a calm yet loud voice. "Everyone would please. Not panic. Now. Prefects will lead their house back to the dormitories. Teachers, will follow me to the dungeons." Everyone began to leave.
Harry grabbed Ron's sleeve. "What?!" Harry half shouted, half spoke. "Hermione! She doesn't know!" Harry looked at Naruto, who looked at Daphne and Draco. Daphne decided strength in numbers might be their best bet in case the three boys ran into the trolls. Draco however... "Oh no, you are not going out there while those trolls are somewhere out there! Especially not for a filthy Gryffind-" Draco couldn't finish his word as Naruto slammed the other blond into the wall. "You're going to listen to me, and you're going to shut your mouth, Draco Malfoy. Every life is worth saving, it doesn't matter who they are or what life they live. You don't know who someone will grow up to be, or whether or not they'll become your greatest ally in the future. So for the fucking love of Merlin, grow a pair and help me protect a life." Draco was stunned, but he clenched his fist. "Fine, but if we die for them Naruto, I'm gonna kill you." They quickly ran, following Ron and Harry, who had already started running. Harry stopped Naruto, who stopped Draco an Daphne. "Looks like, one of the trolls left the dungeons.." Ron said as everyone moved behind a pillar, as they watched the troll walk into the girl's bathroom. "He's going into the girl's bathroom!" There was a loud bang and a scream as Harry and Ron rushed in.
Naruto and Draco were about to rush in too, when Daphne shouted, "GET DOWN!" as she tackled both of them to the ground, in time to see a huge wooden club swing where they just were. It was the other troll. Naruto quickly rolled out of the way, however it grabbed Draco by his leg. "Ah! Someone! Quick do something!" Naruto got up and pulled out his wand, and so did Daphne. The dark haired girl waved her wand and shouted, "FLIPENDO!" She fired a blue light at the troll but it didn't seem to do anything to it. The troll turned an went to throw the boy at the wall. "aaaaahhhhh!" Draco screamed as Naruto ran over and cushioned his fall, Naruto's back slamming against a pillar. CRUNCH! "GAAHHCKK!" He grunted, coughing up blood onto Draco's shoulder. Draco's eyes widened. "Naruto!" Naruto for a moment could hear that woman's voice in his head again. "You don't want to die do you?" No... I don't... "You don't want your friends to die do you?" No I don't! "Then get up and fight back!" The boy got back up on his feet. His face had a look of determination.
Naruto ran forward, distracting the troll. "Hey fatso! See if you can do that again!" The troll went to grab Naruto. "Left," came the voice. Naruto dodged left away from the hand, jumping out of the way. The troll roared as it went to slam its wooden club down onto Naruto. "Right!" Naruto jumped to the right, rolling away, quickly getting back on his feet. Daphne looked at Draco. "Maybe we can distract it in time for the teacher to arrive!" Draco nodded. "Hey you fat oaf over here!" Draco shouted, running. The troll went to grab him, but missed, Naruto saw an opening. "Left!" Naruto pulled his right fist back and slammed it into the troll's jaw as he jumped to the left to avoid the troll's hand. "Hey Ugly over here!" Daphne shouted from further away. She swung her wand and shouted "Flipendo!" Shooting another blue light at the troll. It didn't do anything but it did distract the beast. It turned to start following Daphne. Naruto held his wand, trying to think of something. Daphne jumped out of the way of an incoming swing. "Hey pea brain!" Naruto shouted. It turned back towards Naruto and started walking towards him. "Grit your teeth. Focus your power...!" Came the voice. Naruto held his wand tight. The troll started rushing towards Naruto. The boy imagined it. Those flashes. He remembered what he learned in that muggle book. Naruto swung his arms. Those flashes in his head.
Flash...!
Flash.
Flash!
FLASH!
FLASH!
Naruto shouted with all his might as he flicked his wand towards the troll rushing towards him.
"CHIDORI!"
The moment he finished that word, a bolt of blue colored lightning shout out from the wand made of Elder wood. The bolt slammed into the troll, electrifying it. It shook, dropping its club. While the creature was stunned, and still trying to recover from the attack, Naruto rushed over. He grabbed the club and slammed it into the troll's head with all his strength. The troll made and OOOUGH sound and fell forward. Literally 2 seconds later, Professor Snape turned the corner and was walking towards them. Could he have been watching the whole time? When did he get there? Some of the other teachers also ran over. "Explain yourse-!" Naruto dropped to his knees, panting hard. "No time...Harry, Ron... Hermione...! Girl's bathroom.. Other troll!" Mcgonagall's eyes widened as she rushed to the other bathroom. Naruto breathed hard and wiped away some of the blood dripping from his chin. Snape walked over to Naruto and knelt down next to him, accidentally revealing an injury to the boy, "Professor... are you... alright? Did you... fight the trolls before they got here?" Snape quickly covered the injury. "Quiet boy, where are you injured?" The blond gave a smile before coughing up some blood. "I stopped Draco from getting thrown into a pillar, but ended up hitting it myself. Something's cracked." Snape nodded. "I will see to it that you get rest in the Hospital Wing. But there was one last thing I wanted to ask you, Naruto." The boy leaned back against the wall, grunting in pain a little. "Sir?" Snape stood as he spoke to the boy.
"Would you like to join the Quidditch team as one of Slytherin's beaters?"
