"Fawkes is a phoenix," explained Hermione.
"A phoenix? How interesting," said Rin, petting the bird in question.
"Minerva and Filius will be joining us momentarily. They are not only teachers but heads of Gryffindor and Ravenclaw. I also suspect the Minister will be here as well," said Dumbledore.
"The one who believes nothing is wrong?" asked Kushina.
"Yes. If only we could find a way to convince him that Voldemort has returned and that Sirius is innocent," said Dumbledore, his eyes twinkling.
"We do have two sharingan users with us. Perhaps a genjutsu?" said Minato.
"We would need to know what happened," said Kakashi.
"Sirius was accused of killing twelve people when actually it was Peter Pettigrew who transformed into a rat to escape. Sirius spent twelve years in Azkaban prison for it," stated Harry.
"And Voldeguy?" asked Obito.
"Immensely powerful evil wizard with no hair, no nose, and likes snakes," answered Ron.
"That should be enough," said Obito. He moved to stand on Kakashi's left side as Kakashi pushed his headband up but kept his eye closed.
"What is a sharingan?" asked Hermione.
"This," said Obito, his right eye turning red.
"I think she meant more what does it do," stated Kakashi.
"For Kami's sake...the sharingan is a hereditary trait in the Uchiha clan of our village. It allows them to copy moves, makes fast seem slow, and plant illusions in someone's mind. Kakashi and Obito through circumstances you don't need to worry with share a pair as Obito is an Uchiha and Kakashi is not. That's the basics and all you need to know," said Rin.
"That sounds awesome!" exclaimed Ron. Harry silently agreed. The silver haired teen interested Harry, but Hermione was hesitant to be near any of them, especially Kakashi.
"You sent for us, Headmaster?" asked Minerva McGonagall as she and Professor Flitwick emerged from the revolving staircase.
"Yes. You see I have hired ninjas from the Hidden Leaf to act as bodyguards and help defend against and defeat Lord Voldemort. You remember Mr Minato Namikaze and Miss Kushina Uzumaki?" asked Dumbledore.
"Ah! The fast kid is all grown up! Still got your speed?" asked Professor Flitwick smiling at the blonde. Minato grinned and nodded.
"Masters Jirayia and Sakumo didn't come this time?" asked Minerva as she looked over the assembled teens. Kakashi winced and looked at the floor. The wizard teens noticed.
"No. I have brought my students Rin Nohara, Obito Uchiha, and Kakashi Hatake along with Tenzo, Genma Shiranui, Might Guy, and Ebisu," said Minato as he pointed to the teens in turn.
"Sakumo's son? And his mother?" asked Minerva. Kushina took her aside and the two women started whispering. The teens strained to hear, but couldn't without being noticed.
"Kushina-sensei is explaining that Kakashi's parents are dead. You wizards are a nosy bunch," said Genma, breaking away from the ninjas.
"He's an orphan?" asked Hermione.
"Ebisu is the only one who isn't. Look, Kakashi is not only my best friend but my roommate. Don't ask him about his past, please. It makes him uncomfortable and then he becomes a mute robot. It's hell to break him out of that," said Genma.
Now even more questions were in the teens minds. Genma went back and stood beside Guy, who was whispering excitedly about everything.
"Minerva, all the teens will be in your house except Mr. Guy who will be in your house Filius. Minato will be taking over Defense Against the Dark Arts while Kushina will be assisting Hagrid. The ninjas' real business will be kept quiet, is that clear?" said Dumbledore. He looked around his office to confirm that all those assembled had nodded in agreement.
"What could a ninja teach a wizard?" asked Neville. Minato grinned mischievously from ear to ear. His three students winced.
"You will see," answered the blonde ninja. Before anyone could ask anything or say anything else the Minister of Magic barged into the already crowded office.
"Do feel free to enlighten me as to the events of tonight," demanded Fudge, ignoring the others in the room and going straight for Dumbledore.
"We were welcoming members of our new foreign exchange program to the school. Has something happened?" said Dumbledore. Minato made some quick hand signals to Obito and Kakashi.
"You know bloody well what has happened!" snapped Fudge.
"Excuse me, Minister sir?" called Obito as he and Kakashi approached him.
"Yes what is it young man?" snapped Fudge, turning and facing the two teens. He met two red eyes. The world around him changed.
"You have condemned an innocent man," said a voice. Fudge saw Sirius Black dueling a hooded figure, who sent a curse flying, killing multiple people. Muggles Fudge realized. The hooded figure disappeared and Sirius went to follow, but was stopped by just arrived Aurors who arrested him. Then the world changed again.
"You fail to realize the danger your world is in," said the voice. Fudge saw Voldemort rise from a grave, his death eaters cheering at his return. The death eaters along with the now alive Voldemort marched to a village and began firing curses at innocent people. The world changed for a third time.
"Your inaction has lead to this man gaining power and taking action against not only innocents, but you as well." Fudge recognized the Ministry. He saw many death eaters concealing themselves in the Ministry. He saw them sneak into the Department of Mysteries. He saw the Order of Phoenix defend the building. The world changed back to Dumbledore's office.
"Good Lord...What have I done?" blurted Fudge, so lost in his thoughts about what he seen he didn't see the eyes go back to normal or get covered up by two smirking teenagers.
"I believe it is time for the students to be in bed. It is late after all," said Dumbledore.
Minato, Minerva, and Filius all took the hint and all but dragged the teens out of the office. The Hogwarts professors gave their students the instructions to show the shinobi where they would be sleeping while they showed Minato and Kushina to their rooms. Minato told them they would talk in the morning. With that all the teens drug themselves to bed, their bodies tired, but their minds racing.
