Chapter 8
Charlie Weasley merely raised an eyebrow at the red eyed man before him who was staring at the dragon in one of cages, "Don't get too close mate..it might bite your hand off or worse.." Charlie keeping the magicked tarp over the cage so the dragon didn't spit fire at them, "So..you don't talk much do ya mate? Ever since we found you you've been silent as the grave and only interested in the dragons..what's your name anyway?" Charlie raised a brow at the man who set his black coat aside with puffs of red clouds designed across it, "Itachi..Itachi Uchiha.." Itachi studying Charlie who only murmered, "Itchy? Well you're offically the first friend I have with the weirdest sounding na-" "NO..EE-TA-CHI.." Itachi pronounced for the oblivious red head, Does he honestly not know I'm a wanted deserter and traitor to my village?
"Well Itachi, it's nice to meet ya..My name is Charlie Weasley.." Charlie held his hand out for Itachi to shake as Itachi raised an eyebrow before murmering, "Charrie..?" "NO..it's Charlie oh bugger..you must really be a foreigner.." Charlie whistling as the men began magicing the caged dragons onto the train for transportation, "Well we could give ya a ride into town Itachi..but where exactly are you from?" Charlie raising an eyebrow as Itachi murmered softly, "I belong to no land here."
"Duh! I knew that..with the trouble you're having pronouncing a british name as simple as 'Charlie'..but don't worry, My Dad works for the Ministry of Magic so maybe they can help you find your way home.." Charlie smiled good naturedly before hopping onto the train as he motioned for Itachi to come with the others. "C'mon Itaki..my friends and I'll help you find your way back home.." Charlie smiled good naturedly.
Itachi grabbed his Akatsuki cloak before getting on the train as he gazed around the train compartment with his sharingan at Charlie and his friends. Charlie groaning as he quickly fell asleep against the seat of the train car as some others chuckled, "That's Charlie for ya, out like a light after a long day..like always." These people.. Itachi frowned as he absently fiddled with a kunai in between his fingers, Hmph..I have no idea where I am and obviously this place is uncharted land..It wouldn't do me any good to kill my guide, but maybe..I can teach him a lesson he'll never forget on making 'friends' so easily.
Number 12 Grimmauld Place
Harry woke up with a sharp cry at his scar hurting before grimacing, "Ugh..!" as he tried to will the pain away, It's been hurting more than usual..since I saw those foreign wizards.. Harry finding himself gazing around the room as if searching for clue's to where he was before shaking off the connection, "..hm.." Maybe I'm just not awake yet? Harry heading to the bathroom to wash his face but still gratefull Ron wasn't awake yet nor anyone else as Harry dried his face before moving to head downstairs stopping with a tense at seeing Proffessor Snape having a conversation with Mrs. Weasley, What on earth are they talking about so early in the morning?
"Severus! Severus please try to understand I'm trying to protect those children-" "And you thought 'I' of all people would be your best solution?" Snape merely raised an eyebrow as Molly scowled, "That's beside the point Severus! Look I understand Dumbledore wants them all to get along as school mates but I can't help being fearfull for my children..t-those..Ninja's are trained assassin's..what if one of them tried to kill Harry or Ronald or ANY of my boys?"
Snape blinked once before murmering simply, "And your point is?" "OH! I figured you as a Teacher would worry for the well being of your students but obviously I was wrong.." "Yes..and if the Dark Lord had summoned me and I'dve been late it would be you still who was so OBVIOUSLY wrong.." Snape moving to leave the room as Harry tensed before yelping when he was pulled into the hallway closet giving a muffled noise at his mouth being covered. George whispered urgently, "Relax mate it's only us.." "Yeah it's only us Harry.." Fred chuckled as the two smirked, "You eavesdropping as well?" "N-Not really?" Harry akwardly tried to look away but grimacing at the crammed closet keeping him between the twins with nowhere very far to move.
"Don't worry mate we're eavesdropping as well.." Fred and George motioning to the extendable ear before Fred murmered, "What ARE assassin's doing at Hogwarts anyway?" "Protecting Harry..what else?" "Well we all know Ron's his best mat but is hopeless.." Fred sighed as George tried to keep his laughter down.
"I don't need..assassin's to protect me.." Harry frowned at the two, "Also Ron's NOT useless and..I-I knew there was something off about those people in diagon alley.." "People in Diagon Alley?" Fred and George turned to Harry interestedly, "Who'd you see in Diagon Alley?" "The same people that were outside my home the night Dumbledore brought me here-" "WHOA!" All three let out exclamations when the closet door was abruptly opened as Harry and the twins tumbled out onto the floor with groans of pain against he wooden floorboards, "Ow!" "Ugh..who's the git that-OH.." Fred went quiet nervously looking up as Snape frowned dissaprovingly at the boys.
"Now then..I see your Mother has good reason to be concerned, Potter's a bad influence.." "I am not!" Harry squawked indigintly moving to shakily fix his glasses before giving a wince when he was pulled to his feet by Snape, "Ow! W-What on earth-" "Shut up you stupid boy.." Snape looking deep into Harry's eyes before raising an eyebrow at his Dark Mark reacting so strongly the closer it came into contact with the boy, "Potter..did anything strange happen to you this morning? And don't you dare lie to me I have no patience today." "My scar just hurt really bad..like my head was being split open..what do you care?" Harry glared as Snape frowned, "I 'care' stupid boy..because like it or not the Dark Lord may be trying to take over your mind because you know something he doesn't."
"Like what?" the twins asked curiously standing up to listen as Molly Weasley quickly headed over, "What's going on? Severus I thought you were getting your coat to leave and BOYS! What on earth are you doing down here so early?" "Apparently I may not be leaving so soon.." Snape magicking a note before handing it to Harry, "Give this to Dumbledore the instant you see him and mark my words boy if you don't you WILL regret it.." Snape grabbing his coat from the closet before leaving with a slam of the door as Fred whistled, "..Ah good ol' Snape..ray of sunshine right Harry?" George joked before asking, "What's the note say Harry?"
"I don't know.." Harry having a feeling the Note might be cursed if he tried to read it and not wanting to press his luck when it came to Snape, "Mrs. Weasley..where's Dumbledore? I need to see him immediatly."
The Leaky Cauldron
Naruto woke up with a soft groan as he glanced over at seeing Sasuke had stopped his violent sparking and had dried off somewhat since they dowsed him with a bucket of water. Sasuke was a bit better but was still convulsing every now and then, "..Mn..?" Sasuke weakly opened his eyes as Naruto happily headed over to his friend, "SASUKE YOU'RE AWAKE-OW!" Naruto yelped when he was assualted by dozens of pillows, "Dammit Naruto we're trying to sleep!" "What the hell time is it anyway?" "It's too early for this shit!"
Naruto sheepishly grinned at his friends before turning back to Sasuke, "How do you feel?" "Like a battery left out in the rain.." Sasuke glared sorely as he sat up, "Why the hell am I wet?" "Um..it was Rion's idea?" "Don't put all the blame on me!" Rion grumpily sat up as Cain chuckled, "It really was YOUR idea though boyscout.." Cain stretching with a yawn, "I'll go see about getting breakfast ready downstairs while everyone's awake." Cain passing by Sasuke who only glared darkly at the blonde before Sasuke flinched unconciously when Cain flicked his wrist toward Sasuke's direction, "Ha ha ha..RELAX..I'm not gonna hurt ya unless you attack me again.." Cain winked before leaving the room.
Sasuke growled irritably at the blonde before Naruto asked, "Was their attack that bad?" Naruto not used to seeing Sasuke flinch from anything except his brother. "Don't bother wasting brain cells on it.." "Hey!" Naruot pouted indigintly, "EXCUSE me for worrying about a friend.." "I'm NOT your friend..I'm a traitor to the leaf village and the sooner you get that through your thick skull the sooner you'll realize things are NEVER going to go back to as they were before.." Sasuke frowned as Naruto's eyes widened before he shakily smiled, "Wow..I-I guess you just woke up on the wrong side of the bed this morning.." Naruto's shoulders sagging as he tried to calm his voice before leaving the room as Gaara glared at Sasuke for hurting the blonde, Neji ran after Naruto.
"Naruto!" Neji quickly put a hand to the blonde's shoulder hesitantly, "A..Are you alright?" "I'm just FINE okay?" Naruto's voice cracking slightly as Neji sighed heavilly before murmering, "Sasuke's a jerk, he always has been and always will be right?" "Well yeah but, I-I thought we were friends..even now I just..w-wanted to be his friend and he.." Naruto sighed heavilly, "I don't know, but Sasuke is right though. Like ALWAYS..what the hell was I thinking? That after everything we'd all be friends again?" Naruto sadly hiccuped to himself.
Neji grimaced before akwardly placing a hand on the boy's shoulder and soothingly rubbing, "..Naruto..just because Sasuke isn't your friend doesn't mean he doesn't care.." Neji sighed heavilly, "Sasuke would've killed you in your sleep if he wanted to..yet he didn't, not because he knew we'd all kill him if he tried it but because he respects you enough to want to fight with you as an equal." "R-Really?" Naruto embaressdly blushed, "If..someone tried to kill me..even Sasuke, you'd all kill whoever for hurting me?" "In a heartbeat.." Gaara answered from the end of the hallway before heading over to Naruto as Neji smiled at the blonde, "Don't think that just because Sasuke doesn't want to be your friend that you've lost ALL your friends.".
Naruto sniffled before smiling shakily as he wiped his tears, "T-Thanks guys..man..ugh..I-I'm crying all over again.." Naruto happily laughed as he continued wiping his face Neji chuckled fondly as Gaara's lip twitched slightly from seeing their blonde friend starting to smile again.
Number 12 Grimmauld Place
Harry sighed as he waited for breakfast with his friends briefly fidgeting as he played with the note between his fingers for Dumbledore, What on earth does Snape have to tell Dumbledore? "Hey Mate..I heard from my brother's that you had a run in with Snape what'd the git say?" "Nothing..he just asked me if my scar hurt and told me to give this letter to Dumbledore.." Harry irritibly frowned as he continued, "Though..I feel like burning this letter, the second I give it to Dumbledore. Dumbledore's just going to leave and not tell me anything..like all my 'friends'."
Hermione gasped in shock before murmering, "H..Harry..you know that's not true.." Hermione tried to put a hand on her friend's shoulder before gasping when Harry moved away from her touch, "But it IS Hermione..no one, not even my best friends told me about all that was going on while I was at the Dursley's just waiting..waiting for news of what's happening in the wizarding world with Voldemort."
Ron paled at hearing Voldemort's name as Hermione nervously murmered, "Harry please..understand that it wasn't our intention to hurt you-" "I know it bloody wasn't but it doesn't change the fact that everyone even Snape is hiding something from me!" Harry growled irritably.
"Oh don't be ridiculous.." Hermione frowned before grabbing the letter from Harry as Harry yelped, "Hermione don't open that!" "Oh please as if Snape would curse you.." Hermione opening the letter, "Dear Dumbledore, Potter is an idiot..Kindly have someone keep a closer eye on him. -Snape."
"..." Harry stared in surprise before murmering, "What?" Harry immediatly reading the letter after her and growling in irritation, "THAT GIT!" "I'll say! What on earth does he have to bother Dumbledore with something so rude!" Ron agreed as Harry sighed but a bit more calm from knowing now what the letter said and also that Snape wasn't hiding something from him, Harry having had enough of everyone hiding things from him.
The golden trio stopped when a loud crash was heard in the hallway followed by a hoot as Ron grimaced, "Bloody Owl's still a menace.." Ron heading over to the Owl as Ron called out, "Mom! There's a letter from Charlie."
Leaky Cauldron
"Alright guys..first we're going to work on a levitation spell.." Rion called out as everyone took out their wands, "Now then..you're going to levitate the FEATHER and nothing else.." Rion trying to keep from pinching the bridge of his nose. "Alright we got it..!" Naruto called out from his end of the table slight black marks covering his face and clothes from having exploded his first couple feathers.
The spell was cast as Sakura triumphantly smiled at having risen her feather and already working on levitating the table as Sakura took a deep breath before lifting the table with a grin, "I did it! I did it Rion!" Sakura called out as Rion blinked in surprise, "Wow..you're really good at this Sakura.." "That's our Sakura alright.." Kakashi smiled gently at his former student.
Rion smiled as Sakura blushed heatedly before giving an embaressed noise at losing her concentration as the table bumped loudly into the floor, "Whoa..are you alright?" Rion headed over immediatly as Sakura shyly blushed a lighter shade than her hair, "Um..y-yeah..thanks.." Sakura frowning slightly at feeling Ino glaring at her from another table as the sound of a another feather exploding caught everyone's attention.
Cain sighed heavilly, "Ino this time.." Cain heading over and gently placing the feather in front of her to take away the burnt one. Ino sighed sheepishly, "Sorry I lost my concentration for a second there I think it was the glare from Sakura's big forhead-" "What'd you SAY Ino pig?" Sakura glared as Namine winced before yelping as her feather accidentally exploded from her nervousness. "Ugh..come ON..it's just levitating a feather.." Cain heading over as he replaced Namine's feather. Roxas glared at Ino and Sakura for scaring his friend, "Would you two STOP fighting? You're breaking everyone else's concentration."
Ino rolled her eyes as she went back to practicing with a, "Hmph!" as Rion sighed heavilly, "Cain..some of them have already gotten the hang of this. Sakura, Hinata, Roxas, Neji, Axel, and Gaara you can leave back to your rooms and Cain will escort you.." Rion turning to Ino, Sasuke, Shikimaru, Namine, and Naruto, "You guys need to be brought up to speed so I'm going to help you as best I can but for now you guys can take a 10 minute break."
"I don't want a break though!" Naruto whined, "I almost go the hang of it!" "It's fine Naruto..the feathers aren't going to go anywhere..just take a breather you never know it might help.." Rion assured the blonde boy who smiled as Ino smirked at Sakura before whispering to the girl, "I get to be with Rion, Teacher's pet..and who knows, he might even tutor me 'privately'.." Ino stuck her tongue out childishly as Sakura cracked her knuckles, "What'd you SAY Ino pig?"
Rion slumped down in a chair with a heavy groan of dismay, I'm no good at being a teacher..dammit..I was hoping everyone would get the hang of things on their own.. "Hey boyscout.." Cain sat behind his twin before gently massaging Rion's shoulders, "Cain? W-What're you..OH.." Rion moaned as he tilted his head back letting Cain massage his shoulders as Cain smirked at Sakura and Ino before sticking his tongue out childishly at the two girls who only blushed heatedly before glaring darkly at Cain.
Namine giggled lightly at the confrontation as Axel smirked softly, "Well that's one way to stop those girls from fighting, Hard to believe they're 'friends', right?" "Yeah.." Roxas frowned slightly at Rion before turning to Axel, "So..Rion's responsible for 'saving' Riku and Sora right?" "Well..I do wonder our 'friends' Sora and Riku are though. If Rion was trapped with them..wouldn't it make sense that the 3 of them would be in the same place?"
"Not really.." Melanie headed over as he snuck a bottle of alcohol out from under the bar, Axel raised an eyebrow, "What do you mean 'not really'?" "Think about it.." Melanie turned to the nobodies, "If 2 people get on the same train but depart at different times..do you really think they'd wind up at the same 'stop'? Riku and Sora had no idea where that console would take them..for all we know they could be seperated in that cyber space." "Then what're we doing here instead of looking for THEM?" Roxas glared as Melanie answered simply, "They ARE being looked for..but it's not a place nobodies can reach..for instance..when we went looking for Sora we found YOU, Roxas."
"What?" Roxas's eyes widened instantly at that in surprise, "Me? But..I wasn't even apart of that system where Riku and Sora-" "We know you weren't..we think Riku and Sora may have been fragmented in transition.." "What?" Axel confusedly raised an eyebrow as Melanie answered, "Simple..My hard drive was uploaded onto a computer in the World that Never was and THERE..we found you 3 and-" "Melanie!" Rion called out as he glared darkly, "You know King Mickey's orders.." "Aw Rion..can't a boy get drunk and have a 'slip' of the tongue without being judged?" Melanie winked before greedily downing the glass of alcohol.
"What're you guys hiding from us?" Roxas frowned as Cain grinned wickedly, "Nothing..BAD.." before standing to take who he need to back to the room as Rion stood heading over to the one's who still couldn't levitate with their wand's, "Break's over..now let's get start again."
Ministry of Magic
The next day, Itachi tried to keep his composure but found himself staring at seeing papers flying through mid air without any chakra strings and seeming to have a will of their own as they zoomed in multiple directions to everyone else. "Ah..you must Charlie's friend, Itaki right? My son, Charlie, told me about your situation.." Arthur Weasley headed over to shake Itachi's hand. Itachi frowned, "It's 'Itachi'..and what has Charrie told you?" "Ha ha ha..Charrie..I like that, It might be my new nickname for my son..he's always playing with his 'friends' the dragons.." Arthur Weasly headed over to his desk, "Please have a seat, Itachi..don't worry you're safe here."
Itachi sat down across from the man as Arthur Weasley murmered, "You don't have a wand yet you were able to fight off those dragons in the forest that's REALLY quiet astounding..are you a half?" "A..half?" Itachi raised an eyebrow as Arthur Weasley nervously explained, "Like a half being..you know how centaurs are part horse part man? I was asking if you were like that..like having a fire elemental of some kind in your family, it would explain how well you tamed those dragons. Because that's no easy task.." Arthur Weasley smiled as Itachi grimaced, "No..I'm not a half anything I'm a human, Your son..Char..ly..said you could help me get back home?"
"Certainly but we need to know where your home is first so we can arrange for you to be sent back there..what continent is your home on?" Arthur asked as Itachi confusedly asked, "Continent? Wait..where am I?" "Britain..er a town called 'London' it's a small city that's part of the continent 'Europe'..do you understand?" Arthur wondering if Itachi's understanding was limited. "Yes but..where I lived we've never had anywhere called 'Europe', 'London', or this..'Britain'.." "GREAT scott.." Arthur stared disbelievingly, "Really? Wow..you must be a long ways off..but I don't want to send you off in the wrong direction..and we can't possibly spare the expense of sending you to every country on the globe to find your home.." Arthur sighed before murmering, "Hm..Perhaps Fudge or my friend Dumbledore could help you..they're the greatest wizard's I know afterall.." Arthur chuckled good naturedly before thinking, "Well maybe Dumbledore would be a better idea."
"Dumbledore?" Itachi frowned slightly, Wizards? What kind of place am I in? Magic doesn't exist..but it is an answer as to why those papers are flying or how those people took down that dragon with those sticks.. "If I meet your friend..'Dumbledore' would he be able to help me find my home?"
"Certainly!" Arthur Weasley smiled good naturedly before murmering, "Just follow me after I finish up so we can meet in Diagon Alley.." Arthur whipping out his wand as a letter sealed itself before zooming off toward the cieling with the rest, "Are you hungry Itachi? You sound like you've had a long journey and could get something." "I'm not hungry for food.." Itachi getting comfortable in his seat as he activated his sharingan absently watching all the wizards technique's and moves, Maybe..I can figure out where I can get ahold of one of those magic sticks, and perhaps some more information.
The Leaky Cauldron
Melanie, Cain and Rion headed to the training room they'd reserved as Roxas tried to keep from smirking like Axel. Rion sighed at the two friends before asking, "Why did you guys ask us to come here so early in the morning?" "We got a letter from King Mickey.." Roxas holding out the letter as Rion confusedly read it aloud, "Dear Galerians, I hate to bring this up while I know you guys are teaching but I just realized you are not up to speed with combat involving keyblades. I don't want you guys relying ONLY on your Galerian abilities, have Roxas teach you how to wield a keyblade but don't use any of your Galerian abilities. I want you guys to learn what it means to be keyblade Masters, To fight with your heart more than your mind. -King Mickey. P.S. Your friend Pat said he's close to a breakthrough with that new medicine so contact him when you can."
"Wait..What?" Melanie yelped as Cain growled irritably, "Aw c'mon King Mickey that ain't fair! UGH!" "Well, King Mickey's right. Having these keyblades is a responsibility and not a perk. We have to LEARN to properly fight with them.." Rion elaborated before summoning his keyblade, "And if King Mickey has faith in Roxas to teach us then I trust him."
"Alright then.." Roxas smirked as he summoned both his keyblades as Cain groaned in dismay, "We are SO getting our asses handed to us aren't we?" "I'd bet on it.." Axel chuckled from the corner of the room as he sat down to watch, Man Namine should be here to watch this..or even those ninja's would get a kick out of seeing this after what Cain did to Sasuke.
"So..how are we going to start this do we stretch or-Whoa!" Cain jumped out of the way when Roxas threw his keyblade and it sliced into where he'd been, "You trying to kill-" "First thing..your enemy won't wait to attack especially if he doesn't have a heart.." Roxas summoning his keyblade back into his hand before attacking again as Rion quickly blocked Roxas's keyblade from injuring Cain. "Nice block.." Roxas blinked in surprise at Rion having moved so fast before Roxas used his other keyblade to block the dark keyblade that nearly hit him, "Nice try.." Roxas frowned as Melanie glared, "I don't play fair-AH!" Melanie moving to slash but missing as Roxas moved out of the way kicking Melanie in the back to the floor.
Rion and Cain immediatly moved to attack Roxas with their keyblades as Roxas easily blocked their attacks elbowing Cain in the face once before sweeping the Galerian's legs out from under him as he fell to the floor. Rion grimaced at being the only Galerian standing as Roxas murmered, "You have Sora's keyblade..that means whatever the keyblade saw in Sora it saw in you..now USE it!" Roxas quickly attacking as Rion winced trying to block the two keyblades as Melanie and Cain got back up moving to attack Roxas as well.
"Man.." Axel stared in surprise, Roxas..is still as good as ever..he's up against 3 newbie's and he's tossing them like ragdoll's.. Axel smirked slightly at his friend, No wonder he became a keyblade bearer after Sora left. Axel wincing when Roxas swiped shoving Rion into the wall headfirst with a loud THUD, Damn..he's not taking it easy on them.. "I'm gonna go get some water..and maybe some ice..I'll be back in a few Roxas.." Axel called out as Roxas ignored him along with the Galerians who were fighting to try and at least get a hit on Roxas.
The Leaky Cauldron Boy's room
Axel grabbed a bucket of water and a packet of ice as Neji raised an eyebrow at the items the redhead was grabbing, "Is someone hurt?" "Wait..Where's Rion and Cain?" Naruto asked at having not seen the Galerian's since the morning as Axel smirked, "Getting their asses handed to them by Roxas, want to watch?" Axel couldn't help but laugh as the Ninja's immediatly sat up to get their sandels on quickly following Axel to the training room.
The Leaky Cauldron Training room
"GRAH!" Cain blocked Roxas's attack before shoving the boy's keyblade back as he swung in an arc Roxas jumped before kicking Cain in the chest shoving the Galerian into the floor. "The keyblade chose you for a reason..it saw something inside you..you have to tap into it.." Roxas glared as Melanie scowled heavilly before standing up.
"Shut your trap and FIGHT!" Melanie making wild swings as Roxas parried them with ease sweeping Melanie's legs out from under him as Melanie immediatly lifted his keyblade blocking Roxas's attack. "Good, You guys are learning. The first thing I'm noticing you're having trouble with mainly is your footing.." Roxas called out at seeing Rion starting to move from his spot against the wall some blood dying his blonde hair a thick red as he stood to balance his footing. Roxas moved away from Melanie before facing Rion, "Let's try this again.." Rion smirked before moving to fight the blonde.
Axel immediatly came into the room with a smirk as Naruto stared in surprise, "Wow.." as the rest of the Ninja's quickly headed inside to see as Rion fought Roxas with his keyblade. Roxas dodged one of Rion's attack before yelping in surprise when Rion swept his legs out from under him as Roxas quickly moved to land on his feet instead of his back slicing forward as Rion blocked with a wince at the keyblade nicking his cheek before shoving Roxas back. "You're doing better than a couple minutes ago.." Roxas carefully circled Rion who did the same, "Why?" "Because I'm fighting for my friends.." Rion attacking again as Roxas blocked before Cain and Melanie quickly moved to swipe when Roxas blocked Rion as both missed the blonde who ducked. Cain and Melanie nearly hitting each other with their keyblades after the miss as Cain glared, "We're not 'friends' boyscout.." "We never have and we never will be.." Melanie and Cain momentarily forgetting Roxas.
"We only exist for one purpose.." the two stood in front of Rion who yelled, "Roxas move!" "TO KILL YOU!" Melanie and Cain quickly began attacking Rion before all 3 stopped when suddenly they were surround by Ninja's with Kunai's at their vital points, "That's enough..from all 3 of you.." Kakashi looking pointedly at Melanie, Cain and Roxas. "You got the balls to kill ME..?" Melanie glared at Neji before gripping Neji's hand as Cain smirked back at Sasuke's kunai at his throat, "Aw..you wanted revenge for last night?" "Dammit you idiots..don't you DARE.." Rion glared at Melanie and Cain who smirked darker.
"Aw but I thought we were all 'friends' here Rion..might as well let them know.." Melanie impaling himself on Neji's kunai as Neji grimaced quickly pulling his hand away as the Galerian fell to the floor dead. Cain shoved himself forward on Sasuke's kunai slicing his own throat before falling to the floor dead as well as Kakashi stared in shock quickly moving his kunai away from Rion in case the boy tried to kill himself as well.
"W-What..?" Naruto stared in shock at the 2 dead Galerian's on the floor before scowling, "You idiots! What the hell'd you kill yourselves for!" "Dammit!" Sasuke glared at Cain before kicking his corpse once, I wanted to kill him not have him kill himself on my kunai.
"UGH!" Melanie rasped for breath as he pulled the kunai out before letting out a throaty laugh, "HA HA HAHA! ACK!" Melanie coughed up blood before shakily standing as the wound in his chest instantly began healing until the skin was fresh as if nothing had happened. Cain standing as well as his neck began stictching itself back together, Cain giving a dry laugh some of the air coming out from his wound until he fully healed as he spoke, "Y-You should see the look on your face-AH HA HA!" Cain laughed at Sasuke who only paled.
"What? But..D-Didn't they just..kill themselves?" Naruto confusedly stared at Cain and Melanie before Naruto worriedly yelled, "Are you both insane? You could've died!" "Not really.." Rion explained for elaborating shakily, "Galerians are meant to survive death blows..the only things that can really kill them are other Galerians.." Rion glared at his demented 'friend's who were still laughing.
"Don't give me that bullshit!" Sasuke snarled before jumping on Cain and stabbing the Galerian repeatedly who only continued laughing, "That tickles-HA HA HA!" "SHUT UP-SHUTUPSHUTUP!" Sasuke glared as he continued stabbing the Galerian until Naruto gripped his arm, "Sasuke stop! PLEASE.." Naruto gazed pleadingly at his friend, "Just..STOP."
Sasuke blinking in surprise as his sharingan de-actived before he looked down at seeing the multiple stab wounds in Cain's chest that were rapidly healing as Cain smirked, "You know Sasuke..people usually pay for this kind of thing.." Cain gently running his hands soothingly over Sasuke's hips, "They get off..on killing their partner during sex-" "You're SICK!" Sasuke stabbed Cain through the head before standing with a shudder of revulsion as he glared at Melanie and Rion, "You..G..Galerians! You're all sick fucks in the head!" Sasuke glowered before leaving as Naruto worriedly yelped, "Sasuke!" running after his friend.
Rion turned to Melanie before hollowly glaring, "Are you HAPPY now?" "Yeah.." Melanie removed the weapon from Cain's forhead, "Everyone knows that we're MONSTERS..and you're one of US..Rion." "I'm NOTHING..like you two.." Rion glared before leaving the room as well.
Axel scoffed at the scene to himself, "Drama..drama..drama.." before heading over and helping Roxas up, "You alright?" "Um..yeah..but..what the hell was all that about?" Roxas paled at having seen what a ninja could do to someone without a second thought, These guys.. Roxas grimaced as he clung to his friend, "Axel..I-I feel sick.." "What? Hey Roxas it's okay..I'm here.." Axel soothingly rubbed the blonde's shoulder, "I'm going to take him back to the room.." Axel explained to Kakashi before leaving with Roxas.
"I guess I'll clean up in here with Cain.." Melanie laid down in the pooling blood near Cain before moving his arms and legs like making a snow angel out of the blood. "Alright..er.." Kakshi turned to the Ninja's, "Neji you stay here with the other's, Kiba go get Hinata we'll go look for Sasuke and Naruto."
"Wait a second..why you guys?" Ino yelled indigintly not wanting to be without Kakashi to mediate things if they got out of control. "Because Kiba's nose can track Naruto and Sasuke's scent..and Hinata might be helpfull if they've gotten hurt.." Shikamaru explained with a grimace at everyone, "Man what a pain..getting out of bed for all this."
Diagon Alley
Arthur Weasley waited as he sat down at the coffee shop not noticing all the odd looks Itachi was getting for his clothing, "Er..are you certain you don't want any coffee or tea Itachi?" "I'm certain.." Itachi absently watching the wizards coming back and forth as he kept his gaurd up before his eyes widened at hearing from the other side of the Alley, "Sasuke wait up!" Naruto panted shakily in the distance as he tackled his friend, "I said wait up teme! I just want to talk.." Naruto glared at the struggling boy who glared, "Dammit Naruto get off of me..for the last time we aren't friends!".
Arthur Weasley gasped in surprise at seeing the two strange looking boys before turning to Itachi who was staring at the boys in recognition, "Er..do you know those boys?" "Jinchuriki.." Itachi smirked at seeing Naruto, So he's in this place as well all by himself..unattended.
"Eh..his name's Gin-chero-ki? That's a weird name.." Arthur Weasley rubbed his chin in thought before smiling, "..Well why don't you go say 'hi' to your friend while I wait for Dumbledore?" "Certainly.." Itachi stood before heading towards the oblivious blonde who was struggling to keep Sasuke from running off, "Dammit Sasuke would you stop moving? I just want to help you!" "I don't care..!" Sasuke glared at the blonde.
Naruto punched Sasuke once in the face before taking a deep breathe, "I know what you saw and I'm scared shitless too of those Galerians but..they're our allies..they're our friends and friends don't stab friends to make a point." "Funny you didn't seem to mind so much when they stabbed themselves.." Sasuke scoffed before he glared at the blonde, "The only reason you sympathesize with those monsters is because you're just as alone as they are!"
Naruto tensed at that before taking a deep breathe, "Sasuke..I'm nothing like-" "NOTHING? You're EXACTLY alike..you may not be as twisted in the head as those freaks but you're exactly like them. You never asked for the power you were given but it protects you both from death and from being human.." Sasuke glared darkly at the blonde, "Who cares if you'll never have friends! Do you have ANY idea..what people would give to have the power you all have? What..I would give.."
"Sasuke-Ugh!" Naruto's eyes widened when he was hit in the back of the head before slumping unconciously against Sasuke who stared in shock at the person who'd knocked Naruto out, "I..Itachi..?" "Foolish brother.." Itachi immediatly dodged Sasuke who attacked him carelessly tossing Naruto off like a rag doll as Itachi caught the blonde. "This's all I came for, so don't waste my time little brother.." Itachi moving to run off before frowning at suddenly being surrounded by Kakashi, Hinata, Akimaru and Kiba. "It'd be a pain to chase after ya..so we'll keep you here.." Kiba frowned at seeing Naruto fast asleep, Must he let his gaurd down so easily around Sasuke?
Sasuke glared at his former teacher and schoolmates, "Back off! Itachi's mine to kill!" "What the bloody hell is going on?" Arthur Weasley immediatly headed over as he murmered, "Wait..aren't you the lot supposed to be with that boy Rion?"
Kakashi blinked in surprise before simply murmering, "You're apart of that 'order' and friends with Dumbledore correct?" "Well um yes but what are you all doing with Itachi?" "In our country he's a traitor and a wanted felon.." "What?" Arthur Weasley stared in disbelief before turning to the Uchiha, "Itachi..is that true?"
Itachi shifted Naruto in his arms before murmering, "I have no time for this.." Itachi vanishing in a puff of smoke as a log appeared in his place before Kakashi tensed, "Everyone find Naruto now!"
Sasuke nearly snarled, "ITACHI!" before activating his sharingan and quickly jumping from rooftop to rooftop to find his brother, Hinata actived her byakugan, "N-Naruto-kun.." I'll do my best..we have to find you.." Hinata looking before she tensed, "Behind us?"
Kakashi quickly blocked the kunai that nearly impaled Hinata as Itachi frowned at the girl, "Hyuuga.." "Ah.." Hinata froze before her gaze traveled to Naruto as she quickly moved forward, "I'll protect Naruto from you!"
Itachi easily deflected the girl's attacks before kicking her across the face as Kiba quickly caught her, "Hinata!" "Hmph.." I can't have that byakugan finding me so easily.. Itachi activated his sharingan before frowning at Naruto waking up, "What?" Naruto tensed at seeing the Uchiha, "Itachi?" "Stupify!" Arthur Weasley yelled with a flick of his wand as Itachi quickly used Naruto as a shield. Naruto immediatly went limp with a pained noise grimacing at still being concious but unable to move, What the hell?
Itachi vanished as he threw a shurikan at Arthur Weasley, Kakashi grimaced before blocking it as he tensed, Dammit..Naruto's gone and can't move. Kakashi turned to Hinata and Kiba, "We need to get back to the leaky Cauldron!" "What..why?" Kiba glared as he murmered, "Itachi's going to get away!" "No he isn't..Sasuke was formerly my student I know he won't let Itachi get very far.." Kakashi explained before he turned to Arthur Weasley, "Alert our ally Dumbledore at once that one of my students has been kidnapped by a rogue ninja." "Good heavens!" Arthur Weasley tensed before quickly magicking a note as it zoomed off, "It's sent, but what are you lot going to do?"
Kakashi grimaced before murmering, "We're going to ask Rion for help."
Outskirts of London
Itachi stopped near an open field as he placed Naruto down surprised the boy hadn't struggled after he'd awoken, "What was that spell?" Itachi waving a hand in front of Naruto's face as the blonde's eyes tried their best to glare but moved whenever Itachi moved his hand so he could keep an eye on what the man was doing. Itachi turned around at seeing no one had followed him before immediatly putting his gaurd up when a man with pale blonde hair appeared before him, "I must say..that was..a fascinating 'show'."
"What's it to you?" Itachi recognizing the look in the man's eyes that he wanted something, "What use..is this boy to YOU?" the man poked Naruto with his cane before chuckling, "Ah where are my manners..my name is Lucious Malfoy..I am a dark wizard, and after seeing your talents..I'm sure my Dark Lord would greatly profit from you joining our side." "Not interested.." Itachi answered automactially gazing down at Naruto then up at Lucious, "Is this boy dead?"
"Of course not!" Lucious chuckled before murmering, "It's simply a stunning spell..it'll wear off in a couple of hours..He's alive and able to feel every sensation.." Lucious jabbed the end of his cane into Naruto's side as the blonde gave a pained noise in his throat, "But he's unable to move." "Intriguing.." Itachi smirked at the thought of such an usefull spell before standing, "What..would I have to do to aquire one of those..?" Itachi gesturing to Lucious's wand as Lucious chuckled, "I could obtain one for you if you'd like to be 'friends' or even 'comrades'. Every wand works differently for every person in this world and the wrong one could very well..KILL..you.." Lucious looking pointedly at Itachi if he tried to still his wand, "The magic can backfire in the wrong hands."
"I see..thank you for your information.." Itachi picked Naruto up as Lucious smirked coldly, "And now where will you go? Are you certain you're in the right..'world'..?" "World?" Itachi frowned slightly as he turned to Lucious who explained, "We had a possible friend of yours already join our side..perhaps you know him, he's called 'Deidara' but we're thinking of calling him 'Hydra' instead.." Lucious gestured to Itachi's cloak, "He was wearing the same coat as you..won't you come with me? I can make it worth your while..and that boy has no merit to us."
Itachi frowned slightly knowing if he found Deidara the man would want the 9 tailed fox all to himself, "Actually I'd rather he not know I'm here at all.." Itachi drawing his kunai and moving to kill Lucious before both tensed at the gravity around them suddenly bending. "What? What're you-" "It's not ME!" Lucious growled as he tried to get a sense of balance feeling like they were being turned in a ball constantly as Kakashi gently set Rion down off his back knowing the boy couldn't keep up with ninja speed. "It's ME..now put Naruto down.." Rion's hand glowing a deep blue as Itachi glared throwing a kunai at Rion as Kakashi caught it Rion's concentration breaking from the sudden attack.
Itachi landed on his feet as Lucious quickly apparated away, "Coward.." Itachi scowled as Kakashi activated his sharingan immediatly moving as Itachi used Naruto to block Kakashi's attacks knowing that the ninja had a soft spot for the blonde. "Dammit.." Rion glared as he summoned his keyblade before blocking Itachi's kunai as Kakashi moved to try and seperate Naruto from Itachi.
Itachi quickly did his hand signs, "Fireball jutsu!" Itachi instantly inhaled before Rion tensed as Kakashi yelled, "Rion!" Rion instantly activated his shield as a purple orb surrounded the boy before Rion gave a pained grunt trying to hold his shield as Itachi blew fire at him. Kakashi quickly attacked Itachi making sure to avoid hitting Naruto as Itachi smirked before re-doing his hand seals, "Shadow clone jutsu!" 9 Itachi's appeared holding Naruto's before they darted off in different directions. Rion scowled, "I've dealt with this trick before.." Rion immediatly pointing his hand toward the clone heading north as eletricity instantly surround Itachi who dropped Naruto as the other clones vanished in puffs of smoke.
Kakashi turned to Rion, "Wait..how'd you know which one was real?" "I could only see the real one..illusions don't work on me anymore. And I could see..Naruto's heart..?" Rion explained before frowning to himself at the keyblade, How..can I see what's in other people's hearts? I haven't even known Naruto that long.
Rion headed over to Itachi who violently sparked before shakily standing, "You think..you can defeat me with magic?" Itachi scowled at the boy as Rion concentrated before murmering, "Not magic, Nalcon level 2..-HYAH!" Rion thrust his hand toward Itachi as Itachi was instantly hit multiple times by the psychic energy before falling to the floor as he shakily moved to sit up with a scowl at coughing up blood. "This..isn't over.." Itachi glared darkly at Rion before frowning at seeing Sasuke starting to approach and Kakashi quickly grabbing Naruto. What IS going on in this world? Itachi snarled at Rion before vanishing in a cloud of smoke as Rion instantly headed over to his blonde friend, "Naruto..Naruto are you alright?"
Kakashi headed over to his student but kept his gaurd up as Sasuke glared, "Where's Itachi?" "He's gone Sasuke let it go-" "Let it GO?" Sasuke snarled before tensing when Kakashi's hand immediatly gripped around Sasuke's neck, "This, is BIGGER than your revenge. Akatsuki almost got ahold of Naruto and we had to ask Rion to help us.." Kakashi squeazed Sasuke's throat tighter for emphasis, "We are NOT going to look for Itachi..our priority right now IS Naruto."
Kakashi released Sasuke who coughed gasping for breath as Rion quickly chanted a spell to undo the stunning one, "Naruto..hey, can you move?" "GUH!" Naruto quickly sat up panting to breathe before coughing, "W-What the hell was THAT?" Naruto staring at Rion in shock as Rion murmered, "Well..it was a stunning spell-" "I know that! But I meant what you did to Itachi? I've never seen anyone even land a hit on Itachi let alone make him bleed that badly." "Well.." Rion tried to think of how to explain before grimacing, "I'd rather not explain Naruto..let's get you back.." Rion helped Naruto stand, Shit..I was scared I was going to kill that human but he was tougher than I thought.. Rion gratefull Naruto was alright, Maybe..they can actually go against Galerians..with a bit of training.
Kakashi sighed before turning to Sasuke, "You carry your friend and I'll carry Rion.." Rion frowned before sighing as he reluctantly got onto Kakashi's back, This's akward to do with a guy..At least Cain isn't here. Sasuke frowned heavilly with a, "Hmph.." before kneeling down as he murmered, "Naruto get on my back before I carry you like a girl.." "What'd you say teme?" Naruto glared before akwardly getting on Sasuke's back as Naruto smirked, "Hey how about a piggy back race?" "Oh hell no!" Rion paled at the thought as Sasuke smirked wickedly at Naruto's idea, "Ready, set, go!" before running off at full speed as Kakashi did the same.
Death Eater's Hideout
"Art is a bang un!" Deidara smirked as he tossed the new clay he'd created from the mud of the cave as it exploded in green sparks destroying and decaying the cave stones further, "Heh heh heheh.." Deidara chuckled before grimacing as a Deatheater called out, "Hydra! They're calling the meeting to order.." "My name isn't Hydra it's Deidara un!" Deidara scowled at the man before heading upstairs to sit around the table, What a pain this world is..at least they're trying to help me get back to my own world or they'd better be.
Lucious Malfoy cleared his throat before sighing, "Before we begin..I have an announcement that may hold interest to our new friend 'Hydra'.." Lucious Malfoy stopped with a tense when Deidara pressed his kunai against Lucious's throat warningly, "You call me 'Hydra' again..and I'm going to cut your tongue out.." Deidara moving to sit back down, "Have you found me a way home?" "Not yet..but I have discovered someone today, he goes by the name 'Itachi'..do you know him?" Lucious Malfoy raising a brow at Deidara.
Deidara scowled before murmering, "So? Where is the bastard, un?" "We don't currently know, but he tried to kidnap a blonde haired boy near Diagon Alley today. Though..we were stopped by someone, who I'm assuming is a ninja.." Lucious turned to Deidara, "Tell me, Deidara..did you think it wise to hold usefull information from us? Why didn't you tell us that Ninja could bend the very air around us without the wind?" "What?" Deidara's eyes widened in surprise, "You're saying..a NINJA did that?"
"He didn't have a wand and his hand was a strange blue color when he did it so yes I'm saying a ninja did it.." Lucious scowled at repeating himself before Deidara laughed, "This ninja I have to meet..I can kill him after I learn his technique un." "Itachi never answered if he wanted to join us but-" "I'll do it.." a voice called from the tunnel as the Death Eater's stopped their meeting with a tense at the newcomer.
"Itachi..so you're stuck in this world too un?" Deidara stood as Itachi nodded once mutely, Deidara smirked, "You look like shit.." "Is there a way for us to return home Deidara?" "Not yet un..I joined these bastards so I could get a ride home but they tell me it's going to take a while because they don't know exactly where our 'home' is." "So glad..your friend could join us.." Lucious Malfoy smiled coldly ignoring Itachi and Deidara's conversation before getting back to the meeting as Itachi wandered off for Deidara to follow him.
"Is there anyone else here?" Itachi asked the blonde as he frowned at the multiple bruises on his chest and abdomen, Dammit, so it wasn't an illusion..Whatever the hell that boy did. "No un..just us..but since you're here I'm figuring it's a matter of time before the others pop up.." Deidara smirked as Itachi rolled his eyes, "I'm stuck here only because I was ordered to go looking for you..it's quiet unusual for you to dissapear over a month Deidara." "Yeah un..I've been here a whole month and it seems like this world just gets even weirder with time.." Deidara explained before he smirked at his black haired friend, "You got a plan?"
Itachi smirked before he lightly explained, "Yes, The jinchuuriki Naruto is here.." Itachi turned to Deidara, "And we are the ONLY Akatsuki members on this world." "Really? Well didn't life just hand us a grand opportunity un.." Deidara smirked to himself, "It'd be a shame to waste it."
Platform Nine and Three Quarters.
Dumbledore smiled as he greeted the off worlder's, "You all went through quiet some intense training..but it's all lead up to this..now you will all be seated in cars seperate from the current students." Dumbledore pointing to where the train cars were added that had been painted blue. The platform having already been cleared of the Hogwarts students who curiously peered outside the window at the foreigners getting on after them.
"Harry look! We're going to have foreigners at our school again isn't this exciting?" Hermione smiled at her friend as Ron irritably grumbled, "Yeah..EXCITING.." with a roll of his eyes at remembering Victor Krumm. Harry tensed, "T-Those were the people outside my home and the ones from Diagon Alley.." "Really? You mean.." Hermione tensed as she gazed at the foreigners, "Those are all..'assassins'..?" "Yeah.." Harry nervously gulped as Ron did the same, "Bloody hell..there's..so MANY of them."
The Ninja's got on the train as Axel smirked at the students watching them, "Hey! My name's Axel..A-X-E-L..got it memorized?" Axel stopping with a yelp as Roxas pulled him onboard the train embaressdly grimacing at his friend, "REALLY Axel?" "Aw c'mon Roxas I was just having a little fun.." Axel chuckled good naturedly as everyone got settled in.
Rion, Melanie, and Cain sat across from the nobodies as Cain sighed heavilly at the nobodies, "This's going to be a LONG train ride isn't it?" "You could say that again.." Axel irritably frowned as the conducter blew the whistle before the train started to move.
