Nearly ten years had passed since the day the Dursleys had woken up to find their nephews on the front step, but Privet Drive had hardly changed at all.
The sun rose on the same tidy front gardens and lit up the brass number four on the Dursleys' front door, it crept into their living room, which was almost exactly the same as it had been on the night when Mr. Dursley had seen that fateful news report about the owls. Only the photographs on the mantelpiece really showed how much time had passed. Ten years ago, there had been lots of pictures of what looked like a large pink beach ball wearing different-colored bonnets, but Dudley Dursley was no longer a baby, and now the photographs showed a large blond boy riding his first bicycle, on a carousel at the fair, playing a computer game with his father, being hugged and kissed by his mother. The room held no sign at all of the other two boys that lived in the house.
Yet Harry Potter and Naruto Namikaze was still there, asleep at the moment, but not for long. They Aunt Petunia was awake and it was her shrill voice that made the first noise of the day.
"Up! Get up! Now!"
Harry woke with a start. His aunt rapped on the door again. "Up!" she screeched. Harry heard her walking toward the kitchen and then the sound of the frying pan being put on the stove. He rolled onto his back and tried to remember the dream he had been having. It had been one of the night parents died. There had been a his godfather's flying motorcycle in it. He had a funny feeling he'd had the same dream before.
His aunt was back outside the door.
"Are you up yet?" she demanded.
"Nearly," said Harry and as Naruto groaned as he was awoken by his aunt screeches.
"Well, get a move on, I want you to look after the bacon. And don't you dare let it burn, I want everything perfect on Duddy's birthday."
Naruto groaned again and this time it was by awaking up.
"What did you say?" his aunt snapped through the door.
"Nothing, nothing… you old hag" The blond Shinobi mumbled
Dudley's birthday — how could they have forgotten?
Harry got slowly out of bed and started looking for socks. He found a pair under his bed and, after pulling a spider off one of them, put them on, when he was dressed he went down the hall into the kitchen, Naruto come down a few minutes later. They look to see the table was almost hidden beneath all Dudley's birthday presents. It looked as though
Dudley had gotten the new computer he wanted, not to mention the second television and the racing why Dudley wanted a racing bike was a mystery to Naruto, as Dudley was very fat and hated exercise, unless of course it involved punching somebody.
Dudley's favorite punching bag was Naruto and Harry, fortunate he couldn't catch them as they very fast, their Shinobi training made it so they could move at speeds no preteens had the right to.
Unfortunate Harry and Naruto had to hid their Shinobi training and this met that look weak, so they come up with a "Seal Form" so everyone believe normal looking kids
Harry "Seal Form" look small and skinny, this was because all he had to wear were old clothes of Dudley's, and Dudley was about four times bigger than he was. Harry had a thin face, knobby knees, black hair, and bright green eyes, he wore round glasses. The only thing Harry liked about this from was that he could show off the very thin scar on his forehead that was shaped like a bolt of lightning.
Naruto "Seal Form" look short with an outfit that consisted of a kill-me-orange jumpsuit with blue on the upper shoulders area as well as up and down the front, a white swirl with a tassel on the left side, a red swirl on the back, a big white collar, orange pants, blue sandals. Naruto had a rounded face, blue eyes and spiky, blond hair and only thing Naruto liked about this from was that he could show off his whisker marks.
They was broken from their thought was Vernon entered the kitchen.
"Comb your hair!" he barked, by way of a morning greeting.
About once a week, Uncle Vernon looked over the top of his newspaper and shouted that Harry needed a haircut. Harry must have had more haircuts than the rest of the boys in his class put together, but it made no difference, his hair like his brother simply grew that way - all over the place.
Naruto was frying the eggs by the time Dudley arrived in the kitchen with his mother.
Dudley looked a lot like Uncle Vernon. He had a large pink face, not much neck, small, watery blue eyes, and thick blond hair that lay smoothly on his thick, fat head. Aunt Petunia often said that Dudley looked like a baby angel, Naruto often said that Dudley looked like a pig in a wig.
Naruto put the plates of egg and bacon on the table, which was difficult as there wasn't much room. Dudley, meanwhile, was counting his presents. His face fell. "Thirty-six," he said, looking up at his mother and father. "That's two less than last year."
"Darling, you haven't counted Auntie Marge's present, see, it's here under this big one from Mummy and Daddy." "All right, thirty-seven then," said Dudley, going red in the face. Harry, who could see a huge Dudley tantrum coming on, began wolfing down his bacon as fast as possible in case Dudley turned the table over. Aunt Petunia obviously scented danger, too, because she said quickly, "And we'll buy you another two presents while we're out today. How's that, popkin? Two more presents. Is that all right?"
Dudley thought for a moment. It looked like hard work. Finally he said slowly, "So I'll have thirty… thirty…"
"So he's so dumb he can't even count," Naruto whisper so that only Harry could hear.
"Thirty-nine, sweetums," said Aunt Petunia.
"Oh." Dudley sat down heavily and grabbed the nearest parcel. "All right then."
Uncle Vernon chuckled.
"Little tyke" wants his money's worth, just like his father. "Atta boy, Dudley!" He ruffled Dudley's hair. At that moment the telephone rang and Aunt Petunia went to answer it while Harry and Uncle Vernon watched Dudley unwrap the racing bike, a video camera, a remote control airplane, sixteen new computer games, and a VCR. He was ripping the paper off a gold wristwatch when Aunt Petunia came back from the telephone looking both angry and worried.
"Bad news, Vernon," she said. "Mrs. Figg's broken her leg. She can't take them."
"We have a name," Naruto growled
She ignore him as she jerked her head in they direction. Dudley's mouth fell open in horror, but Harry gave a smirk. Every year on Dudley's birthday, his parents took him and a friend out for the day, to adventure parks, hamburger restaurants, or the movies. Every year, Harry and Naruto was left behind with Mrs. Figg, a mad old lady who lived two streets away. They hated it there, the whole house smelled of cabbage (This was worst for Naruto because of his heightened senses) and Mrs. Figg made them look at photographs of all the cats she'd ever owned.
"Now what?" said Aunt Petunia, looking furiously at they as though he'd planned this… if only they knew. Harry knew he ought to feel sorry that they had broken Mrs. Figg's leg, but it wasn't easy when he reminded himself it would be a whole year before he had to look at Tibbles, Snowy, Mr. Paws, and Tufty again.
"We could phone Marge," Uncle Vernon suggested.
"Don't be silly, Vernon, she hates them."
The Dursleys often spoke about Harry and Naruto like this, as though they wasn't there or rather, as though they was something very nasty that couldn't understand them, like a slug.
"What about what's-her-name, your friend, Yvonne?"
"On vacation in Majorca," snapped Aunt Petunia.
"You could just leave us here," Harry said in voice, knowing that it would make them said no.
Aunt Petunia looked as though she'd just swallowed a lemon.
"And come back and find the house in ruins or on fire?" she snarled and shot a look at Naruto
"Hay that was a accident," said Naruto, but they weren't listening.
"I suppose we could take them to the zoo," said Aunt Petunia slowly, "… and leave them in the car…"
"That car's new, there not sitting in it alone…"
Dudley began to cry loudly. In fact, he wasn't really crying the only time he really cried is he or Naruto use him to test their new jutsu, but he knew that if he screwed up his face and wailed, his mother would give him anything he wanted.
"Dinky Duddydums, don't cry, Mummy won't let him spoil your special day!" she cried, flinging her arms around him.
"I… don't… want… them… t-t-to come!" Dudley yelled between huge, pretend sobs. "They always sp-spoils everything!" He shot Naruto a nasty grin through the gap in his mother's arms.
Just then, the doorbell rang "Oh, good Lord, they're here!" said Aunt Petunia frantically and a moment later, Dudley's best friend, Piers Polkiss, walked in with his mother. Piers was a scrawny boy with a face like a rat. He was usually the one who held people's arms behind their backs while Dudley hit them. Dudley stopped pretending to cry at once.
Half an hour later, Harry and Naruto couldn't believe their luck, they were sitting in the back of the Dursleys' car with Piers and Dudley, on the way to the zoo just like they planed
They aunt and uncle hadn't been able to think of anything else to do with them (but that might have been the genjutsu they put on them) but before they'd left, Uncle Vernon had taken Harry and Naruto aside.
"I'm warning you two," he had said, putting his large purple face right up close to them, "I'm warning you two now, any funny business, anything at all and you'll be in that cupboard from now until Christmas."
"We're not going to do anything," said Harry, "honestly…"
But Uncle Vernon didn't believe them. No one ever did.
The problem was, strange things often happened around Harry and Naruto and it was from they ninja ability and it wasn't like telling the Dursleys that they didn't make them happen was any good.
Once, Aunt Petunia, tired of Harry coming back from the barbers looking as though he hadn't been at all, had taken a pair of kitchen scissors and cut his hair so short he was almost bald except for his bangs, which she left "to hide that horrible scar." Dudley had laughed himself silly at Harry, who spent a sleepless night imagining school the next day, where he was already laughed at for his baggy clothes and taped glasses.
Next morning, however, he had gotten up to find his hair exactly as it had been before Aunt Petunia had sheared it off.
He had been given a week in his cupboard for this, even though he had tried to explain that he couldn't explain how it had grown back so quickly.
Another time, Aunt Petunia had been trying to force Naruto into a revolting old sweater of Dudley's (brown with orange puff balls). The harder she tried to pull it over his head, the smaller it seemed to become, until finally it might have fitted a hand puppet, but certainly wouldn't fit Naruto. Aunt Petunia had decided it must have shrunk in the wash and, to his great relief, Naruto wasn't punished.
On the other hand, he'd gotten into terrible trouble for being found on the roof of the school kitchens. Dudley's gang had been chasing him as usual when, as much to Harry's surprise as anyone else's, there he was sitting on the chimney.
The Dursleys had received a very angry letter from their headmistress telling them Harry had been climbing school buildings. But all he'd tried to do (as he shouted at Uncle Vernon through the locked door of his cupboard) was jump behind the big trashcans outside the kitchen doors.
This was before they learn about magic and that it can happen accidentally when feeling angry, scared, or confused.
But today, nothing was going to go wrong, while he drove, Uncle Vernon complained to Aunt Petunia. He liked to complain about things: Harry, people at work, Naruto, the council, Harry, the bank, and Naruto were just a few of his favorite subjects. This morning, it was motorcycles.
"… roaring along like maniacs, the young hoodlums," he said, as a motorcycle overtook them.
"I had a dream about a motorcycle," said Harry, remembering suddenly. "It was flying."
Naruto slapped his face because not matter how much their train themselves to control their emotions and think before speaking there were time they said thing they should not say like Harry did just now.
Uncle Vernon nearly crashed into the car in front. He turned right around in his seat and yelled at Harry, his face like a gigantic beet with a mustache: "MOTORCYCLES DON'T FLY!" Dudley and Piers sniggered.
"I know they don't," said Harry. "It was only a dream."
But this is why he hadn't said anything. If there was one thing the Dursleys hated even more than them asking questions, it was them talking about anything acting in a way it shouldn't, no matter if it was in a dream or even a cartoon, they seemed to think he or Naruto might get dangerous ideas, which they did.
It was a very sunny Saturday and the zoo was crowded with families. The Dursleys bought Dudley and Piers large chocolate ice creams at the entrance and then, because the smiling lady in the van had asked Harry and Naruto what their wanted before the Dursleys could hurry them away, they bought them a cheap lemon ice pop.
It wasn't bad, either, Harry thought, licking it as they watched a gorilla scratching its head who looked remarkably like Dudley, except that it wasn't blond. Harry had the best morning he'd had in a long time with The Dursleys.
They was careful to walk a little way apart from the Dursleys so that Dudley and Piers, who were starting to get bored with the animals by lunchtime, wouldn't fall back on their favorite hobby of hitting him. They ate in the zoo restaurant, and when Dudley had a tantrum because his knickerbocker glory didn't have enough ice cream on top, Uncle Vernon bought him another one and Harry was allowed to finish the first. Harry felt, afterward, that he should have known it was all too good to last.
After lunch they went to the reptile house.
It was cool and dark in there, with lit windows all along the walls. Behind the glass, all sorts of lizards and snakes were crawling and slithering over bits of wood and stone. Dudley and Piers wanted to see huge, poisonous cobras and thick, man-crushing pythons. Dudley quickly found the largest snake in the place. It could have wrapped its body twice around Uncle Vernon's car and crushed it into a trash can, but at the moment it didn't look in the mood. In fact, it was fast asleep. Dudley stood with his nose pressed against the glass, staring at the glistening brown coils.
"Make it move," he whined at his father. Uncle Vernon tapped on the glass, but the snake didn't budge.
"Do it again," Dudley ordered. Uncle Vernon rapped the glass smartly with his knuckles, but the snake just snoozed on.
"This is boring," Dudley moaned. He shuffled away.
Harry moved in front of the tank and looked intently at the snake while Naruto stay back, his transformation into a fox hanyou was over 75% complete and it left he with a dislike for snakes. Harry look the said and wouldn't have been surprised if it had died of boredom itself, no company except stupid people drumming their fingers on the glass trying to disturb it all day long.
The snake suddenly opened its beady eyes. Slowly, very slowly, it raised its head until its eyes were on a level with Harry's.
It winked.
Harry stared, then he looked quickly around to see if anyone was watching, they weren't. He looked back at the snake and winked, too.
The snake jerked its head toward Uncle Vernon and Dudley, then raised its eyes to the ceiling. It gave Harry a look that said quite plainly: "I get that all the time."
"I know," Harry murmured through the glass, though he wasn't sure the snake could hear him. "It must be really annoying."
The snake nodded vigorously.
"Where do you come from, anyway?" Harry asked.
The snake jabbed its tail at a little sign next to the glass. Harry peered at it.
Boa Constrictor, Brazil.
"Wasss it nice there?"
The boa constrictor jabbed its tail at the sign again and Harry read on: This specimen was bred in the zoo. "Oh, I see… so you've never been to Brazil?"
As the snake shook its head, a deafening shout behind Harry made both of them jump. "DUDLEY! MR. DURSLEY! COME AND LOOK AT THIS SNAKE! YOU WON'T BELIEVE WHAT IT'S DOING!"
Dudley came waddling toward them as fast as he could.
"Out of the way, you," he said, punching Harry in the ribs. Caught by surprise, Harry fell hard on the concrete floor.
What came next happened so fast no one but Harry and Naruto saw how it happened, one second Piers and Dudley were leaning right up close to the glass, the next they had leapt back with howls of horror. Harry sat up and gasped, Naruto fell down and laugh, the glass front of the boa constrictor's tank had vanished.
The great snake was uncoiling itself rapidly, slithering out onto the floor. People throughout the reptile house screamed and started running for the exits. As the snake slid swiftly past him, Harry could hear a low, hissing voice said, "Brazil, here I come… Thanksss, amigo."
Naruto whisper to Harry "Are you sure you don't want the snake summoning contract" and Harry shook his head and whisper "Maybe later"
The keeper of the reptile house was in shock.
"But the glass," he kept saying, "where did the glass go?"
The zoo director himself made Aunt Petunia a cup of strong, sweet tea while he apologized over and over again. Piers and Dudley could only gibber. As far as Naruto had seen, the snake hadn't done anything except snap playfully at their heels as it passed, but by the time they were all back in Uncle Vernon's car, Dudley was telling them how it had nearly bitten off his leg, while Piers was swearing it had tried to squeeze him to death. But worst of all, for Harry at least, was Piers calming down enough to say, "Harry was talking to it, weren't you, Harry?"
Uncle Vernon waited until Piers was safely out of the house before starting on Harry. He was so angry he could hardly speak. He managed to say, "Go. Cupboard. Stay. No meals," before he collapsed into a chair, and Aunt Petunia had to run and get him a large brandy. Harry lay in his dark cupboard much later, wishing he had a watch. He didn't know what time it was and he couldn't be sure the Dursleys were asleep yet. Until they were, he couldn't risk sneaking to the kitchen for some food.
He and Naruto lived with the Dursleys almost ten years, ten miserable years, ever since they had been a babies and Harry parents had been kill. Life with the Dursleys miserable when they had been younger before they became Shinobi.
But now that they had became Shinobi, they had friends, they had disciples, they had a plan, Akatsuki.
It was Naruto idea after they looked up all the information they could find about the wizarding world, from what they had read he and Naruto had learned the corruption of the ministry of magic, not just the in Britain but in all countries worldwide. They saw magical beings were treated by the humans, were either classified as unintelligent or sub-human and were treated like animals. The Muggle-born witches and wizards are often derided by pure-bloods and called disparaging names such as "Mudblood", a term implying that they are somehow dirty and impure and many pure-bloods believe that Muggle-borns are unworthy of magic and should not be allowed into the wizarding world.
This is the some for the Minister for Magic, who it is not possible for Muggle society to coexist peaceably alongside wizarding society. The wizarding world look down on the Muggle world thinking they stupid and naive, but the wizarding world also had their problems, stuck in the past and unwilling learn or ignore the new science and technology from Muggle society and using magic for almost everything, including cooking, cleaning, travelling, communicating, child rearing and medical treatment.
Than you have the intelligent magical beings and beasts, were either classified as unintelligent or sub-human and were treated like animals. the magical creatures that were intelligent like the Acromantulas, Trolls(some of them), Griffins, Sphinxes, Hippogriffs, Thestrals, Unicorns, Dragons(most of them), and Kneazles are hungered down or enslaved, and as for the magical beings…
The Werewolves, who are perfectly normal human beings the majority of their lives and terrifying monsters for a small fraction of it, are generally regarded with fear and disgust by wizarding society and are so hated and despised that to reveal their affliction is to end all possibility of future employment.
The Vampires, who are not considered a true threat to the wizarding or Muggle community are generally regarded with fear and hated like that of the werewolves, and have been hungered down and killed in the past just because they live off of blood.
The Giants, who are normally solitary creatures given to territorial aggression, were rendered nearly extinct by the refusal of wizards to allow them near habitable land. This forced their kind to cluster together in desolate rocky lands, leading to in-fighting and further deaths. Giants are so feared by wizards that gentle and intelligent half-giants are made to feel ashamed of their heritage and suffer the same prejudice that Muggle-borns and half-bloods do.
The House-elves, who willingly and joyfully do whatever tasks their wizard masters ask of them, have thus been ruthlessly exploited for centuries as a slave-class. The fact that they seem to like being enslaved has made wizards send their house-elves on life-threatening errands at all corners of the globe. The casting-out of a house-elf from a family is the deepest and most traumatic punishment imaginable for them. This most often leads the house-elf to harm itself in grief to the point of death.
The Goblins, while they appear to have at least a grudging co-existence with the wizard world, but his is because they control the wizarding economy to a large extent. have nonetheless experienced much discrimination from wizards, and many have led significant uprisings against them in the past.
The Dwarfs were once proud creatures, they built the most glorious underground cities, crafted weapons and armor for the highest quality but thanks to the humans they lost much of their history and prestige, they for force into an also slave-class like stated.
The Centaurs, who are classified as Beasts by the Ministry of Magic, at their own request, as they were unhappy at having to share Being status with Hags and Vampires. have nonetheless experienced much unfairness from wizards take the phrases "half-breed" and "near human intelligence" to be a great insult.
The Veelas, who are a race of intelligent bring that semi-human, semi-magical creatures, they like the Goblins have a grudging co-existence with the wizard world, but have nonetheless experienced much unfairness from wizards, and are some times sold as sex-slaves.
This is how he and Naruto saw it, the wizarding world were like spiritual energy, creative with magic, and the Muggle world were like physical energy, logically with science, and the world of magical creatures and being they were like natural energy, wild with nature.
Then there was Akatsuki.
They were Shinobi, they would use the science and technology from Muggle, the magic of wizards, and learn from the beings of nature.
First they would gather and train disciples of the shinobiarts, and they had. Naruto had disciples in Fred, George, Ron, and Ginny Weasley, and Luna Lovegood. Harry himself had disciples in Kiba, Shikamaru, Choji, Neville, and Hermione.
Lee and Yugito, both of whom have recover the memories of their past life, join Akatsuki, and have disciples, Lee's disciples were two Muggle-born brothers by the name Dennis and Colin Creevey, while Yugito's had Cho Chang, Pure-blood of Asian descent, and Fleur and Gabrielle Delacour, who were two French, part-Veela sisters.
Then you had Gaara, Hinata, and Haku, whom all had disciples of their own, Hinata's disciples were Angelina Johnson and Susan Bones who both were half-blood, Lavender Brown who was a Pure-blood. Gaara's disciples were his sister Temari (he didn't have a brother in this world) and two Muggles by the names Matsuri and Sari. Haku's disciples were her older brother Suigetsu Momochi, and Kimimaro Kaguya a Pure-blood from the Kaguya family which is almost complete gone.
There was also Neji who had recover his memories and started training Hinata's sister, Hanabi.
The second part was to build their reputation, and gain allies from the magical creatures and being, and obtain a large amount of money to support their organization.
In order to build their reputation and get some money they plan to accept missions that other can or won't do at a low cost, to gain allies from the magical creatures and beings their offer freedom and rights, Naruto had already meet with some Vampires who were shock to see a true demon in over 2,000 years even if he was only a half-demon, Naruto was also trying to meet with the Werewolves but they were solitary so word was slow getting around.
Harry thought there cut off as the cupboard lock clicked and open to Naruto who was grinning evilly "Is time for us to give Dudley are… present" Harry nodded with his own evilly grin.
Omake: Harry's and Naruto's present
Dudley awoke as someone open his bedroom door, he look up to Naruto and Harry both of whom had red eyes, before Dudley could say anything both Naruto and Harry said
"Tsukuyomi"
The next Dudley knew he was outside tied to his bed under a red moon and sky with black clouds.
Naruto and Harry looked at Dudley
"It time for us to gave you are-"
-present, we promise that you-
-will never forget it."
And with that the place was full of Orochimaru clones dressed only with thongs and feather scarfs. The stuff they were doing among themselves was probably illegal in most civilized countries.
One of them spotted the horrified face of Dudley.
"Heeeellooooo, Dudley-chaaaaaan! I heard that you are going to be with us! We are going to treat you very weeeeeeell!" exclaimed the Orochimaru licking his lips while others looked at Dudley with perverted smiles while they touched the piercings in their nipples.
Well they said he would ever forget it.
