Time seemed to pass rather quickly for the students after the message was found. Harry Potter stared around the Quidditch field searching for the elusive Snitch. A bludger was starting to get on his nerves as he turned his head once more barely dodging the attack. It was quite obvious the damn thing was cursed but with his intense Taijutsu training it was like being attack with a rubber ball thrown by a baby. There was the Snitch, in a flash Harry sped towards his objective avoiding the bludger time and time again. And that's when he felt a surge of magic right before the bludger slammed into the side of his head knocking him from his broom. With a curse he waves at his broom and catches it just before hitting the ground before zipping up and searching for the Snitch again.
With irritation he start blocking and knocking the bludger away, that attacks becoming more and more forceful, he could feel bruises begin to form on his arms. This was getting down right ridiculous. There's the Snitch and Harry was after it once again dodging and knocking away the bludger. Making a reach for the Snitch he felt another blast of magic and that's when the bludger succeeded as it slammed into his outstretched arm. He felt the bones snap and splinter from the force. Ignoring the pain he hops up onto his broom and channels chakra to his feet and leaps forward, the built up chakra blasting him forward. His good hand snaps out like lightning and ctaches the snitch before he barrel rolls on the grass before coming to a stop in a crouch on the sand below the goals. The snitch held snug in his hand winning him the game. Anger courses through him as the bludger heads for him again. Timing it perfectly he jumps in the air witha spinning back kick fueled with enough chakra to make the Rasengan Jaraiya was currently teaching Naruto. The thing exploded upon contact, all the stored up magic within controlling it erupted into a geyser of force ripping the ground and throwing up a ton of dust and smoke. Blue chakra and green magic seemed to sizzle and course in the air fighting each other before dying out.
The dust began to settle as a crowd of students and teachers rushed the field. Harry's best friends in the lead next to Lockhart. A shade begins to step through the dust and smoke to reveal Harry, the snitch held firmly in the air. A cry erupts from the few still into the game, meanwhile Lockhart made it to Harry's broken arm. A hiss escapes Harry's tightly pressed lips as Lockhart begins to say he could repair it. Harry's eyes go cold, colder than midwinter at midnight at the north pole. "Touch me and I'll show you your heart..." Lockhart simply smiled thinking the 'young man was beside himself with pain'. Eyes wide he is yanked back with a sudden jerk at his collar as Harry's 'broken' arm rips through the empty space where Lockhart's head had been. Dumbledore stepped forawrd soon after, Naruto's grip still strong on Lockharts collar who struggled and asked 'how dare you's and 'let me go this instant's.
Dumbledore stepped next to Lockhart and looked over his spectacles at him, a look of severe disappointment froze the moronic man instantly. "You should be grateful Professor, Naruto just saved your life." He turns his attention towards Harry and moves slowly, almost as if he was prepared to be attacked. "You see, Harry is unconscious. His body, always on High alert for attacks, is in reactive counter mode. He will attack anyone who gets near." He steps one foot forward and Harry moves. Everyone watching couldn't believe their eyes as his arm whipped out like lightning aimed at the Headmaster's throat, his wand held like a knife as magic sparked off the end. They were beyond surprised as Dumbledore leaped back and pulled his wand, crouched and more serious than anyone had ever seen before. Crouched low and wand unwavering at the ready.
"Naruto, Neo, is there anyway you can contain him?" The two look at Dumbledore, already at his side and in their Shinobi clothes, kunai ready out of pure instinct. Naruto grins and Neo looks more determined. "We can try, a Shinobi trained like we have are sometimes more powerful when unconscious since there are no morals and emotions to a sleeping mind." Naruto's eyes begin to redden, his excitement growing by the minute. "Lets go Neo, it's our duty to stop him as his team mates."
Neo nods as he whips out his wand. A grin grows on his face as well as he lowers his right arm to the ground palm first. "I've been wantin a chance to use this..." Naruto looks at him then nods knowing exactly what he was about to do. "Heed my call and rise once more Warrior of Old, Hrothgar Dragon Slayer!!!" Runes and lines drew themselves in gold on the ground beneath his palm. The ground began to mound upwards towards his palm. Stepping away from the earth it rose taller growing thicker as the ground began to crack along the lines and runes. The students and teachers watched with wide eyes as suddenly a skeletal hand ripped throught the top of the three foot tall mound. The ground began to lower itself as it crawled forth. Armor coated the skeletal remains of what was once a proud warrior of yesteryear, slayer of the dragon Tiamat. [?)I can't for the life of me remember the dragons name or find it online. Anyone who might kno please message me so i can edit this fic. thanks-JON] Hrothgar pulls a spear from his back, his armor shiny in parts and rusty in others, yet the spear had no signs of damage, no rust. An energy seemed to buzz through the length of the spear and the teachers and Naruto knew it was one of the few special weapons of the world. A weapon containing its very own soul. Neo looked at the summoned skeleton as it bowed its head at him. "No killing or severe injury Hrothgar, this is an ally. He's unconscious and reacting, help us capture him." Another head bow and it rockets forward, reversing his spear to the blunt end for non-killing techniques. Neo and Naruto rushed in quicky behind him, both running through hand seals. Hrothgar hit the front, Neo ran left, Naruto right; all three closing in on Harry almost in an instant. Hrothgar thrust his spear forth at Harry's forehead. Naruto's Gauntlet turned a glowing neon green before he swung his fist like quicksilver at Harry's gut. Bones formed around Neo's hand forming a small funnel, almost like his Bone Taker technique yet smaller. A glow of magic, not chakra, began to form in the funnel before launching an energy ball at Harry. All three attacks were flawless, each was powerful and faster than the eye can see.
Yet all was for naught as Harry swirled, a dome of magic and chakra forming over him while he sits in indian style at the end of his swirl, his hands spread out to the dome holding it in place. His broken arm is twisted yet moves normal creeping out some of the students watching. The three leap back from the dome, Neo and Naruto running through more signs as they land. More bones wrap around Neo arms as he holds his palms out facing the dome. Soon the bones merge together in a huge funnel around both arms, tube like bones growing from his back around to the funnel. Everyone there could feel and enormous magic build up, those who knew what to look for could even feel an enormous amount of chakra. With a roar an enormous orb of energy formed at the tip before blasting forward in a gigantic beam of gold and white energy, blue lightning swirling around the blast. "BONE TAKER!!!!"
Naruto continues running through hands signs as he watches Neo's Bone Taker slam into Harry's Energy Shield only to warp and almost seems to be absorbed by the Shield. As he finishes the last seal blood begins to creep intot he whites of his eyes before completely taking over his eyes, even his pupils are covered making it appear solid blood red WERE his eyes. Like Neo before him he slams his hand to the ground and seals, runes, and other markings spread out. Blood began to filter up through the ground growing and shaping into some heaping behemoth. Finally the seals were gone and the heap of blood with legs began to take shape into the general look of a man. Naruto steps back and grins at his handy work. "Blood Golem! Help Hrothgar to distract or incapacitate Harry!" It doesn't speak, doesn't nod or acknowledge Naruto in any way save for immediately rushing forward and attacking the dome just like Hrothgar was on the otherside. The Skeletal Warrior had flipped his spear around, a brownish energy emanating off the blade as he stabbed and slashed. The energy of the dome shield bent to his attacks but refused to yield.

Harry's eyes, blank and emotionless as he continued to uphold the Shield. Inside his mind another battle was raging. Harry was in full Shinobi gear, dressed as a Konoha ANBU. His face mask strangely held no pattern, no animal face like other masks. It was simply blank white with eye holes. His wand in one hand and a short balde in the other he leapt through the trees of the Forbidden Forest surrounding Hogwarts. An unknown enemy, cloaked in shadows chased after him launching spells back to back with seemingly no end. Conserving his magic and chakra he simply dodged the incoming spells, using his surroundings to his advantage as the spells ricocheted off tree trunks and rocks. Swirling around a tree to avoid the latest attempt at and avada kedavra Harry rockets at his opponent. Channeling magic through his blade he slashes at where the beings neck should be. A green arc slid off his blade at the thing, and passed through it as if it were merely smoke. A bone white wand raised at Harry, a green aura at the tip revealing another killing curse.
"My my my Harry Potter..." The tone of this creatures voice had an abnormal hiss to it. "So the Elemental Islands do exist after all? How else would you have such skill in soooo short a time?" The shadow stepped forward, its wand still trained on Harry's mask. Like a hood being drawn back the shadow moved around the head revealing a grotesque skull, flesh hanging in ragged strips of the pearly white bone.
A snarl escapes Harry's lips as he moves his blade in front of him held in a backwards grip. His wand hand behind him ready to strike. "Voldemort...Finally here to finish the job huh?"
Had the skull supported flesh enough Harry knew it would be grinning. "If only boy, if only. My new body has yet to be completed, and this is not the main source of my soul..." Harry watches his mortal enemy, not a muscle twitched. "Unfortunately my time is through here. You have become too powerful for this me... Until we meet in person boy, adieu..." The green aura began to lessen as the shadow faded. Harry watched until nothing more than the skeleton remained. A pulse emanated from the skeletal remains an instant before white liquid began to bubble from the bones. Growing and shaping into something monstrous. A strange mask like thing the last to form. Three horns arched back from the mask, the body that of a regular sized human's only with various runes and seals traced all over it's form. Almost like a blink the eyes went from pitch to bright gold. "Finally I got rid of that bastard..."
Harry stared in confused shock. "Where's Voldemort?" This wierd creature looked to Harry, the eyes burning into Harry's very soul it seemed. "Oh he's here, somewhere inside me heheh. Someday you will be too Harry Potter..." Before Harry could ask more the creature seemed to blur and was gone. Puzzled he took to the trees trying to find his way out.

Meanwhile Naruto and Neo watched as the Blood Golem and Hrothgar continued to attack. Together the two Shinobi were running through identical seals, magic and chakra twined around the boy's figures as they closed in on finishing one of their best combo techniques. Neo crouched down slamming his wrists together with his open palms aimed at the dome, Harry puts one hand on Neo's back between his shoulder blades while the other points at the sky with palm open. "It's comin Neo, be ready..." There was a nervousness to Naruto's voice that surprised those who knew him at least a marginal amount. Neo merely nodded as bones began to make the Bone Taker funnel only larger, six bone hoses attaching themselves to the cannon. Bones rose up and surrounded Naruto's hand on Neo's back, two small bone hoses attaching to his wrist.
Clouds began to gather in the sky, lightning raining down to the ground and growing in frequency. A swell of power began to throb up from around the two boys, tiny rivulets of power leaking off the edges. Witha roar all the power began to lance towards the front of the bone cannon, charging a powerful power ball like none other as chakra and magic seemed to swirl all over the ball fighting for dominance and finding some strange balance between each other, shaky as it was at best.
A loud whine began to permeate the air as a powerful wind flared off the attack flapping clothes, hair and making most people cover their faces from the dirt and dust being thrown and tremendous speeds. There was a loud click and everything died down, like walking through a hurricane and then reaching the eye. This 'eye' lasted seconds as the energy ball began to move and appeared to be pulling reality itself behind it before it shot off like a bullet raging towards Harry's power dome.
Naruto and Neo had a moment to look shocked when they saw Harry open his eyes and stare consciously at the incoming attack. Instinct took over as he spun up form his seated position, a strange gold like energy surrounding his hand as the dome shrunk and joined the gold glow around Harry's fist making it pulse before growing stronger. With a roar Harry reared back and punched as hard as he could at the incoming energy ball. The attacks connected and exploded in a small mushroom cloud of force. The students, teachers, Naruto, and Neo all watched in horror as smoke filled the area. A few seconds and Naruto and Neo both grinned as the bones shrank back to their respective places and the two summons disappeared. Out of the smoke walked a slightly singed Harry Potter, his arm still broken and now held with his good arm. "Nice try guys, but it'll take a lot more than that to get rid of me." He grinned at his team mates who returne dthe sentiment, Naruto dashing forward to catch Harry as he fell. His legs just giving out from under him like a marionette with its strings cut. The three laugh as almost the entire school watched their strange comraderie. Ron, however, watched on with a look of horror and jealousy slowly sliding into place.
Why Harry? Why did he have so much power and such strong allies/friends?
