"We mean it, you can't tell anyone. Hermione san, that includes your two friends." Shikamaru warned
Hermione paused to take this in, then all three of them nodded their agreement. Shino stepped up.
"You wanted to know why that stuff you slipped into my food during the opening feast had no effect." He reminded the twins
"Yeah."
"What's your secret?"
They asked with curious excitement
"He used an antidote, obviously." Hermione told them
"No. I used these." Shino lifted his arm and a small ribbon of his insects flowed out.
The three at first weren't sure what to make of it, then the twins started to say it was cool and Hermione looked grossed out.
"Where are they comming from?" She asked nervously
"They live inside me."
At this reply Hermione felt like throwing up. She had nothing against Shino, but that was just disgusting. So Shino put away his bugs.
"Does this mean you're..."
"No, Shino san is not a jinchuuriki. We are shinobi." Kankurou answered George
The twins looked confused and Hermione understood
"Shinobi as in ninja!"
"What's a shinobi or ninja or whatever." Fred asked
Hermione quickly explained how ninjas were specially trained in muggle fighting called martial arts, but that was all she knew. They tended to be shady on their other techniques.
"I didn't think they'd have techniques like that, though." She finished
"That's just Shino. We all have our own techniques. In fact, if you come outside with us we can show you more." Naruto told them
The twins jumped at it. Even though Hermione wanted to see, too she pointed out how much trouble they'd be in if they got caught.
"You forget, shinobi are trained in the art of not getting caught. Naruto will make sure we aren't missed here." Shikamaru told her lazily
Referring to how Naruto could combine a clone and transformation jitsu to make doubles of them.
Shino made a small bug carpet out the window.
"Hop on."
It didn't look like the bugs could hold them, but Fred and George decided to just go ahead and jump on. They realized the bugs were strong little guys. Hermione hesitated.
"I don't suppose you have another way for me to get out?"
"I guess Karasu can take you." Kankurou suggested
"Karasu?"
Kankurou took out his puppet and had it float in front of Hermione.
"This is Karasu. I control puppets 'cuz I'm the puppet master." He told them proudly
Hermione agreed that it was better than the bugs. It still seemed kinda creepy though.

Out in the woods Temari,Ten-Ten, Hinata, Gaara, and Neji were waiting.
"Konichiwa." Hinata greeted
"Are you sure it's a good idea to trust them?" Neji raised his eyebrow
"Oh, Neji. They seem nice."
"Being nice doesn't make them trustworthy, Ten-Ten."
"It's too late now, anyway." Ten Ten reminded
and Neji dropped the matter.
"What other things can you do?" Fred asked excitedly
Temari pulled out her fan and opened it. The three guests were amazed that she could even lift it, much less make using it look so easy.
"Stay out of my way." Temari warned
then she swung her fan and everyone had to cover themselves and squeeze their eyes shut as a tremendous amount of wind blew past them. When they opened their eyes again a huge peice of the forest had been destroyed. Hermione and the Weasley twins stood with their mouths gapping.
"That was going overboard. Trust Temari to be troublesome." Shikamaru thought
"One more thing, do you know what chakra is?" Shikamaru asked
only Hermione did.
"It's spiritual energy. Some people beleive it's the root of magic." She explained as though she was giving a book report
Kankurou smirked.
"Well, unlike you wizards who are defenseless without your wands,"
"Kind of like you and your puppets."
Kankurou ignored Temari
"We can summon chakra on our own. Naruto, you want to do the honors?"
The blonde made a familiar hand sign and said,
"Kage bushin no jitsu."
and instantly there were two Narutos instead of one.
"But that's highly advanced magic!" George cried out
"Not to us. Like Kankurou said, we can summon our chakra straight from us without the aid of wands." Gaara calmly told him
Instantly the twins wanted to be taught how.
"It probably doesn't work like that." Hermione told them, secretly wishing it did so she could learn, too.
"Well, I guess I can teach you how to use my scrolls. I've got plenty." Ten-Ten offered
The three were confused as to what was so special about scrolls, but decided to do it anyway. They agreed on a place and time to meet Ten Ten for their training.
"Mind if I ask something?" Hermione inquired before they reached the Gryffindor common room."What are you doing at Hogwarts?"
"Gomenasai, Hermione chan. We can't tell you." Hinata told her
and the shinobi suddenly looked a bit solemn.

Kiba couldn't figure Greyback out. First he was smiling, then threatening him, and he was defineatly using the dog nin. Now Greyback and his gang had been attacking people again and he'd brought back a little present for Kiba. The dog nin knew it wasn't just him, the guy was seriously messing with him like he was a toy.
