Ron yawned as the day droned on, it was dinner time, and nothing else interesting happened since Sasuke nearly killed Draco.

"I wonder if he'll die." muttered Ron, thinking about the wonderful world without Draco.

"I doubt it." answered Hermione, glancing at the three exchange students who were eating inn a small group at the end of the hufflepuff table behind her. "That Tsunade lady is a wonderful Doctor, and i still don't get how she did it! With no potions! Nothing!" whined Hermione, looking down at her apple pie.

"Wow. Something Hermione doesn't know!" gasped Ron in mock horror.

Hermione sent Ron a dirty glare. Harry quickly stuffed some treacle tart into his mouth.

"Well, Dumbledore did say that they had a different type of magic to ours." said Fred, scooting beside his little brother and pulling up some pork.

"That's true..." muttered Hermione, shifting to the side a little as George sat next to her, opposite his twin.

Hermione sighed, pushing her apple pie at Ron. "Eat it. I want to check something."

Ron looked at the pie for a moment, then tipped it onto his plate happily. "Thanks, Hermione"

"No problem." Hermione said off-handedly, pulling a huge book out of her bag and slamming it onto the table so the whole table shook and the plates and forks clattered.

"Holy fucking shit! What the hell is that!" gaped Fred, pieces of pork and mashed potatoes falling from his mouth and back onto his plate.

"Encyclopedia." Hermione said simply, opening it up to the first page, which was blank. "Chidori." Hermione said clearly to the book.

Harry glanced at Fred and George, who had gone back to eating but were watching the book silently.

The page was blank for a moment, then words and pictures started to fade onto the page.

Hermione ran her finger down the index when it had faded in properly enough to read. "hmmm..."

Harry looked at the encyclopedia silently as Hermione tapped one of the words and the page went blank again. it reminded Harry so much of touch-screens in the muggle world as more pictures and writing appeared on the page.

"Okay!" squealed Hermione, finding a moving picture of the electrocuted-like hand and information underneath it.

Hermione was silent as she read, Ron and Harry going back to eating until Hermione's loud gasp caught their attention.

"What?" Fred said shortly, lathering butter onto his bread roll.

"Professer Hatake is the creator of Chidori! And he's from a place in asia where they don't use magic, but CHAKARA!" squealed Hermione, bubbling in excitement about this new knowledge.

Harry felt someone's eyes directed at Hermione and he looked over his shoulder at the ravenclaw table to see Naruto, Sakura and Sasuke all looking at Hermione silently. Harry had the feeling that they had heard the word 'Chakara' and looked over, wondering who was talking.

"... Hermione... i don't think it's s good idea talking about this so loud..." muttered Harry from the corner of his mouth, his eyes still on the three exchange students, of whom were watching the back of Hermione's bushy head.

"Nonsense!" Hermione said happily, not noticing that Naruto, Sakura and Sasuke were all watching her.

Harry was not the only one that had noticed that the three exchange students were watching Hermione. Ron, Fred and George all had noticed too.

"Hermione, i really think you should stop researching that stuff..." Ron said slowly as he saw Sakura stand up from the ravenclaw table.

"What is with you guys?" Hermione said exasperatedly, ripping her eyes off the book and looking at them.

"What are you reading?" came a soft voice behind Hermine, making her whip around.

Sakura was standing behind Hermione, looking politely curious.

Hermione didn't know wether or not to hide what she was reading, but before she could make up her mind, she was found out.

"oi, oi, oi! that book has Kakashi-sensei in it!"

Hermione whipped around as she saw Naruto lean in between Ron and Fred, grab the book and turn it around to face him.

Ron sighed, moving slightly to the side so Naruto wasn't leaning to hard on him, as did Fred.

Naruto touched the page of the book and the information on it disappeared.

"eehhhh?" questioned Naruto, poking the blank page of the book numerous times.

Hermione was about to shoo Naruto away from the book, when a moving picture of a blood-red fox appeared on the page... a nine-tailed blood red fox...

Everyone looked from Naruto to the book and back again. Even Sasuke had walked over and was now standing behind Hermione to see what was going on.

Naruto's eyes were wide and was staring down at the book. The red fox glared at him from the depths of the picture, slamming it's nine huge tails into a mountain behind it, reducing the mountain to rubble.

Sasuke narrowed his eyes and looked at Naruto.

Naruto stared down at the fox, his eyes almost impossibly wide, then he suddenly shoved himself away from the table and sprinted away and out of the hall.

Sakura blinked. "well, that was weird." she said, leaning in between George and Hermione, flipping the book around so she can see the picture the right-way-up.

"... Kyuubi-no-Kitsune..." Sakura said softly, staring at the picture on the encyclopedia. "oh..."

"What's that?" Ron blinked, looking at the double doors which Naruto left through, then at Sakura.

"Nine-tailed demon fox." Sasuke answered shortly.

Ron, Harry, Fred and George raised their eyebrows and Hermione gasped.

"Y-you mean... the one who nearly killed a whole village?" Hermione said in a shaky voice.

Sakura nodded. "That was our village, he nearly killed." she said, slamming the encyclopedia shut, a muffled yelp from the picture of Kyuubi adding to the clatter of knives, forks and plates.

"Why would it effect Naruto like that, though?" Hermione asked herself, scratching her chin.

Sakura and Sasuke glanced at each other, then shrugged at the same time.

Sakura knew perfectly well that Naruto had Kyuubi sealed inside of him, and Sakuke had a hunch that Naruto had Kyuubi somehow inside of him.

((TBC damn. i wanted to make this chapter longer, but i guess it can wait. i tried to make the key characters in this chap the hogwarts kids... i hope it worked. ; anyway, Naruto will have some more chaos in store for him when i write the next chapter, but until then, enjoy!))
