This chapter's going to be a bit long. I'd rather have 1 big chapter than two smaller ones.

Admins, if I have too much 'original text' in a chapter, please give me a warning review/PM with said chapter, and please give me 12 hours to alter it. This will let me remove the questionable material without having to email your support to find out what was wrong and wait a few hours for a response, just to edit the one paragraph that got this story removed. This one may have some original text, but it's not nearly as bad as other fanfictions I've seen that have been on here longer than three months.

In this chapter, there will be a part where there is Person A, Person B, and Person C. If this ever occurs again, this rule will apply there as well.

My underlines are hating me... If they reset again, can you tell me?

Naruto could think of one word could describe every nook, cranny, and decoration in the escort's headquarters. Bleak. It seemed like the house had been abandoned for decades and only recently had been re-inhabited. With the corridors being so narrow, it felt like the walls, and the dust, were closing in on you. Soon after Naruto stepped in, his guards pushed past him, heading to the door opposite the entrance. Curious, Naruto followed.

Beyond the door was a kitchen; Naruto could tell be the size of the table the escort, and others, were sitting at. However, before he could pass the doorway, a plump woman with flaming red hair appeared at the door. "I'm sorry boy, but this meeting is for members only. You'll just have to wait upstairs, with Harry, Ron, and Hermione." Hearing that Harry was upstairs, Naruto turned around.

"Wait Mrs. Weasley!" said a familiar voice. Naruto peeked around the woman to see none other than Pa sitting on the tray of a high chair, apparently meant for an infant. That must be why Tonks and the others knew about him and jutsu, Naruto thought, They got it straight from Pa since he's a member of this Order group. But how much did he tell them? "Naruto-boy is my prized student, having mastered Sage Mode soon before meeting Dumbledore. My last student started learning Sage Mode at around the same age as Naruto-boy did, and didn't even get as far as Naruto-boy when he died in his fifties. Naruto is ready to join the Order. Besides, he will be needed during part of this meeting."

"But he's just a boy! Not even seventeen, he's not an adult. The Order is for adults only."

"Perhaps you consider your young ones adults when they reach seventeen. However, in Naruto's village, they become adults either at the age of sixteen or when they graduate from the Academy, which is usually around twelve years old. Naruto-boy graduated from his village shortly before myself and the other toads found him, and has fought more times than many of you have."

"Fine. Naruto can come in. Naruto?" Having turned back towards the door, Mrs. Weasley noticed that he was gone.

Not entirely surprised, Fukasaku mused about what Naruto was up to. "I think he went to go check on Harry-boy upstairs. Let him be, we can call him down for his part later, at the end of the meeting." With that decided, Molly closed the door.

The first thing Naruto saw when he opened the right door was a bushy-haired girl give a shriek of surprise. Flinging open the door, Naruto saw two startled owls, one of which was Harry's, three redheads, likely that woman's sons, and Harry sitting down. However, Harry and one of the redheads looked surprised the other twin redheads were there. "Stop doing that!" the bushy-haired girl said to the twins, upset and weakly.

"Hello, Harry" said Righty, beaming at him. "We thought we heard your soft, sweet voice."

"You don't want to keep your anger inside youself like that, Harry, let it all out," said Lefty, also beaming. "There might be a couple of people a hundred miles away who didn't hear you."

"You two passed your Apparation tests?" asked Harry grumpily.

"With distinction," said Lefty.

"It would have taken you less than a minute longer to walk down here," said Ron. With that said, he turned towards the now-open door, where the stairs and the proper method of entering a room were. "Blimey, who's that?"

Seeing who it was, Harry stood up. "Everyone, this is Naruto Uzumaki. He helped me escape from Voldemort in the graveyard, even battled him and his Death Eaters toe-to-toe for a minute." With that revelation, some muttering occurred and everyone looked at Naruto in amazement. "Naruto, these are my friends. Hermione Granger."

"Pleasure to meet you," the bushy-hair girl said, shaking his hand. "I wonder, what magic did you use to battle with You-Know-Who on equal footing?"

"This is Ron Weasley." Harry continued. Said red-haired boy looked at Naruto with some mistrust, gave a simple "Hello," and looked back at Harry.

"And those two are the twins, Fred and George." Harry finished, gesturing to the twins on the bed. "Nobody can tell them apart, not even their mom, Mrs. Weasley."

Said twins gave each other a look. "But I'm George! And I'm Fred!" they said.

But Naruto noticed the look. Putting his hand briefly to his wand, he looked at them carefully, memorizing every detail. "No. You're Fred, and he's George. Don't try to fool the prankster prince of my village."

"So you are a prankster too. What pranks have you pulled off?"

"At one part of my village is a large memorial stone to all the previous leaders of my village. With each new leader, the memorial would extend and include his face. In broad daylight, I painted over them, and was in the middle of the last one when I was seen and chased off!"

Hearing that prank made the Weasley's smile. Painting a monument without being seen? That was hard to pull off, even with magic! Just how good is this boy? "That's good, but what else can you do?"

Thinking about what to say, Naruto decided to instead play a trick on them. Making three hand signs, he called out "Transformation Jutsu!"

When the smoke cleared, a third twin was in the room. After looking at each other, the trio marveled. "Cool. We're identical."

"Good job with the looks Naruto. Do we really look that good?"

"But I'm not Naruto! I'm George!"

"Nice try Naruto, but you didn't move from there, and George didn't move from here. Ain't that right George?"

"Right back at ya Fred!"

"I'm not joking Fred. I am George!"

With that, the two twins on the bed shared a smirk. "If you really were one of us, then you would be able to keep up with anything another one says."

By that point, everybody in the room was confused. "Nice one Naruto. Since you look like us, act like us, and prank like us, you should be our triplet!"

The twin standing up looked at the twin that didn't just talk. "Agreed, but I'm George, not him!"

With that said, Tonks walked into the room. "Naruto? Are you in here?" Seeing one extra twin, she knew what was happening. "Fukasaku says it's time for you to come into our meeting. Drop the transformation and come down."

"OK Tonks. Release!" With that cry, one of the twins on the bed became Naruto, who headed for the door. "A quiet Substitution Jutsu works every time," were his parting shots at the remaining twin on the bed he started to close the door.

"Hey twin. Yes twin? I think we have some competition this year. You know what? I have the same idea. With that, they ran to the door. "Prank war at Hogwarts, Prankster Triplet!"

"You're on!" Naruto told them. Hearing those words struck fear into the hearts of the Golden Trio worse than Voldemort ever could. They hoped, more than anything else, Naruto wouldn't become a Gryffindor; that would bring the prank war into their own common room and bedrooms.

When the door closed, Ron spoke up. "There's something different about him."

"You mean," asked Hermione, "besides that jutsu he used?"

"That's the problem," confirmed Ron. "Where did he learn jutsu? He obviously isn't a wizard, but why's he here?"

Harry rushed to Naruto's defense. "He must be a wizard. He could see the dementors and got a wand from Ollivander."

"Really? What kind of wand is it?"

"Yew and Thestral Tail Hair." Hearing that, both Hermione and the twins gasped.

"We know about Thestrals," the twins said. "They can only be seen by those who've seen death. They are really back luck."

"If you think that's bad," Hermione picked up, "Yew is the same wood as Voldemort's wand, and means Dark Arts and curses." Seeing Harry's reaction, Hermione continued. "But he told you already, didn't he?"

"... Yes, his and Voldemort's wands come from the same log of Yew." With that, both everyone else in the room grew pale. "But I've spent all of today with him! He isn't bad at all! Well, he did break a dementor's arm, and mention something called 'One Thousand Years of Death', but that's everything!"

"He actually touched a dementor? Bloody hell, that boy's crazy..." Ron swore. Harry saw that it would take time for his two friends to accept Naruto.

A few minutes back, downstairs, Naruto finally entered the meeting room. Finding a spare seat between Moody and Pa, he sat down. Looking around, all the members of the escort were there, along with Snape and others. Naruto wondered how many of them were in Moody's rear guard. At the head of the table was Dumbledore.

Dumbledore stood up, gaining everyone's attention. "Now that our guest has arrived, it's time for our last order of business. Naruto, this is the Order of the Phoenix. When Voldemort first rose to power, the Ministry was in a state of panic and couldn't properly counter the threat. That's why I set up the Order, to act as a task force against Voldemort, monitor the activities of known Death Eaters, and to make peace with any magical creatures he may want to add to his armies. Now that Voldemort has returned, so has the Order.

"Naruto, Fukasaku, can you trust them with our secret? I trust them with my life, and more ears in many places may be able to pick up any information you need to return home."

Naruto blanched. Did Dumbledore really want this many people to know? He thought Dumbledore and Pa were working on it alone! However, Pa spoke up. "They might as well, if they vow to never reveal the secret." After getting many vows of agreement, Pa stood up, however much height that gave him. "As you might have guessed, I'm no ordinary toad, or even a magical one. I came from a different dimension, where magic doesn't exist." After the mutters were silenced, Pa continued. "In that world, the energy mainly used by you wizards for your spells can only be accessed through Sage Mode, but they haven't learned to use magic while in the form. The main type of energy used, instead, is chakra. This energy is actually a mix of your physical and spiritual energies, and are molded by the use of hand seals. Some of you have seen examples of this by myself and Naruto-boy, who is also from my home dimension." This made the advance guard and a few others nod for those that were still in disbelief. "I come from Mount Myoboku, and Naruto-boy from Konoha, or the Village Hidden in the Leaves. Naruto-boy, can you show them a Shadow Clone?"

Surprised at this request, Naruto made his signature seal. "Shadow Clone Jutsu!" Everyone was astounded when another Naruto appeared, even though the technique clearly said "clone". Pa spoke up. "This is one example of Jutsu. Jutsus are ranked depending on their needed chakra, hand seal difficulty, and chakra control needed. D-Rank is the lowest, which then rises to A-Rank, followed by S and SS-Ranks. Some jutsus, however, are dangerous to their user as well, or are too dangerous to use casually, and are declared Forbidden Jutsu. Unlike other kinds of clones, Shadow Clones are corporeal and can deal damage to enemies. Also, when a Shadow Clone is destroyed or dispelled, it's memories are given to all Narutos. However, if the real Naruto is hit, the clones start dispelling on their own. Also, due to the amount of energy needed and mental strain, the Shadow Clone Jutsu has been declared an B-Rank Forbidden Jutsu. Naruto-boy, would you now perform the Rasengan?"

After that, both Narutos put their hands together and made a blue swirling orb. The color and the shape, as well as the feeling of power it gave off, fascinated many of the wizards there, including Dumbledore. "This is a Rasengan, an A-Rank spinning orb of pure destructive chakra. However, this is only its most basic form; by adding energy from nature, or your own energy converted into an element, the Rasengan can evolve and become a powerful Forbidden S or SS-Ranked technique. Naruto has also been working on mixing Magic spells with the Rasengan." With that thought, many of the adult's jaws dropped. Tonks almost did it literally, but she caught it when it was around chest-height and pushed it back in place. After the orb dispersed, Pa continued, "If any of you hear about another world, a strange portal, or other beings like us that use chakra or hand seals, please let us know immediately. We're stranded here, and Pain, an enemy who killed my last student Jiraiya-boy, is likely to attack Konoha to preserve his secrets and capture Naruto. However, only Naruto is strong enough to battle Pain; leaving Naruto here to keep him out of Pain's hands will insure that Konoha will be destroyed."

After getting a few murmured promises to help, Pa turned to Naruto. "And now, Naruto-boy, it's time for us to go. You still need to finish Sage Mode and learn Frog Kata, a fighting style that is greatly enhanced by Sage Mode."

"Wait a minute Pa. There one more thing we have to do here." With that said, Naruto went and stood in front of Dumbledore. "I need to ask you something. Can I serve as a witness for Harry's trial tomorrow?"

"Of course Naruto. I was planning on asking you after the meeting, since Ms. Figg didn't get a good enough view of what happened to testify. You can stay here overnight, and join Harry and Mr. Weasley as they go to the trial." Dumbledore turned to face the Order. "With this, our meeting is adjourned." With that said, many members of the Order, Snape included, started moving towards the hallway. Dumbledore went to the nearby fireplace and used the Floo to return to Hogwarts. One of the members, however, moved slowly against the crowd towards Naruto instead.

When he finally got there, Naruto noticed that this man was tall and looked like he just got out of prison. He was unshaven, tattoo'd, sunken, and had smelly clothes. "Hello Naruto. I am Sirius Black, Harry's godfather and owner of this house. Did you just say to Dumbledore that you were there during the attack?"

"Yes sir. I protected Harry from them. I even managed to break one of their arms!"

With that, Sirius laughed out loud, and hard. "A dementor with a broken arm! Oh how I wished I could see that! I've been cooped up in here for a month! Anything to break this boring monotony."

CRASH! "TONKS!" All heads turned towards the hallway. Naruto smirked, "You call that monotony?" then wall walked (more like wall crawled, the corridor was so narrow) over peoples heads to see what happened.

What he saw surprised him; Tonks seemed to have tripped over an umbrella stand made from a large troll's leg. "I'm so sorry," she kept wailing, "I'm so clumsy. I always hit it."

Naruto got off the wall and gave her a hand. "It's okay. We all have small accidents." Seeing his hand, Tonks let him help her up. "At least nothing's broken, and nothing else will happen."

But Naruto spoke to soon, for the curtains right next to them gave a screech and blew open. The painting behind the curtains started screaming. The woman in it could only be described as demented and crazy. "Filth! Scum! By-products of dirt and vileness! Half-breeds, mutants, freaks, begone from this place! How dare you befoul the house of my fathers..."

Tonks quickly turned towards the painting and repeated her apologies while fixing the umbrella stand. But this didn't quiet the portrait. Slowly, other paintings started to join her in yelling, and it was becoming too much for Naruto to handle. Slipping a hand on his wand, he entered Sage Mode and looked at the painting. While he couldn't do anything about the noise, he noticed an unusual spell woven between the portrait and the wall. He realized that it must be a Permanent Sticking Charm, very hard to remove even with fifty strong wizards. However, Naruto had an idea. He marched straight up to the woman and yelled out over all the ruckus "BE QUIET OR I'LL REMOVE YOU FROM THIS WALL MYSELF!"

Startled by this reaction, the woman became quiet, and so did her chorus. She saw a boy with makeup and frog eyes. "How dare you bluff like that, you failure of a Transfiguration! There's no way you can remove me from this wall alone."

Naruto, remembering his training with Jiraiya, replied calmly. "Yes I can, and I will if you don't stop shouting or insulting everyone here. They are the guests of the master of this house, and you are nobody but an insane painting."

"How dare you insult me, you freak!"

"I warned you." With that, Naruto grabbed hold of the frame. Ignoring her continuing insults, Naruto concentrated on his Aura and stored Mana. Using them, he reached behind the portrait and into the spell. He then blasted the spell with his energy, making the Mana being used freeze. Without a flowing energy source, the weaving began to unravel. Soon the spell was cancelled like a Genjutsu. With almost no effort, Naruto lifted the portrait off the wall and outside of the curtains.

This action left all the members of the Order, and those who were upstairs trying to listen and watch the members, in shock. This boy had done what all of them combined could not. Apparently the lady was surprised as well. "Get your filthy hands off of me and put me back on the wall!"

"I will not unless you take an oath of silence. Now that your Permanent Sticking Charm is removed, anybody can throw you out. So will you be quiet, or should I break your frame in two?"

Knowing that she was indeed at his mercy, and would be at the mercy of her son, the lady zipped her lips. Naruto put her back on the wall, told her "If you really don't want to see them, don't open these curtains," then closed her off from the house. He then turned to his audience, still in shock. "So, who was she?"

Coming back to their senses, most of the Order left for the night. However, Sirius and Harry remained there, staring at the curtains. "That, Naruto and Harry, was my mother. Thank you for shutting her up, in more ways than one. We've been trying to get her off that wall for months, but we couldn't break her Sticking Charm. Come on in for dinner, I'm sure Molly has something splendid prepared."

Dinner was indeed great. The adults tried to make small talk, and Naruto noticed some tension with the name Percy. Bur after two months of the same boring meals, Naruto mostly ignored them and dug into the food with a vigor that could only be matched by Ron. When he came up for air, he saw Tonks shape-shifting into various faces to make the others laugh. After a few tries, Naruto decided to use his Transformation Jutsu and join the fun. It soon became a competition of who could make the funniest face, and Tonks won after many long rounds. Mundungus has his own audience, telling others how he humorously swindled people. At first, Naruto didn't know why he was in the Order, but guessed he was the inside man for the underground.

When dinner was over, Sirius turned towards Harry. "I'm surprised you didn't ask any questions about You-Know-Who." With that phrase, the atmosphere changed rapidly. Karma is against us, Naruto thought, Anybody should know better than to provoke Karma. Sure enough, Harry got the adults to squeal to everybody but Ginny, but Naruto knew that the others would tell her anyway. There was some discussion as to if Naruto should hear, but Pa reminded them of the training Naruto went through, without slipping the secret to those who weren't in the meeting, and them that Molly had already invited Naruto into the full meeting as a member.

Harry's first question about the seemingly inaction of Voldemort. Oh, I don't know, thought Naruto, Maybe it's because he has only seven followers and wants an army, perhaps? Or he doesn't want a big sign saying "I'm back! Come defeat me!" After confirming Naruto's suspicions, and talking a little about Dumbledore and the Order's efforts to counter Voldemort's recruitment abilities, they reached the Ministry of Magic. Hearing that they'd rather act like nothing happened and say Dumbledore was disturbing the peace based on words of a crazy boy, Naruto spoke up. "The Ministry are idiots! If a Kunai is impaled in a person, you don't try to cover it and let it dig deeper, but remove the Kunai and do your best to stop the bleeding. They should admit to Moldy-wart's return and do their best to crush him now, while he's vulnerable and low on supporters. Sure there will be some public panic, but killing the enemies will restore their faith."

At that, everybody turned to stare at Naruto. Sirius spoke first. "Naruto, we don't just kill whoever we disagree with. If we confront the enemy, we plan on capturing and imprisoning them."

"And that will only serve you so far. If you capture them, it should be because you want intel on the enemy."

"But we won't kill our enemies. We won't take lives needlessly."

"But will it be needless, Sirius-boy?" Fukasaku spoke up. "If you had Voldemort before you, wandless, powerless, and at your mercy, what would you do."

"I'd kill him."

"But why?" Fukasaku prodded. "You could just imprison him, or snap his wand."

"But he'll just escape and wreak chaos and death to both the Wizarding world and the Muggle."

"That, Sirius-boy, is why we kill as well. Imagine that one guy went to prison after killing 1 person. Every time he's imprisoned, he swears to escape within a month and triple the number of people he has killed. True to his word, he escapes and kills 2 people, bringing the total up to three. After six more months, he would have killed at least 729 people. After a whole year, he would have killed 531,441 people. At what point will you decide that he's too dangerous to be alive and kill him?" That both scared and surprised the Order. While they were surprised by the numbers, they didn't think that a toad could talk so casually about murder and murdering. "We only kill if we can't capture and contain our enemies, and we don't want information. If a villain is past the point of redemption, we remove the danger to society."

Mr. Weasley was the first to recover from the shock of murderers. "Back to the question at hand, the Ministry fears facing the truth, and fears Dumbledore as well."

Harry was confused by this. "Why would he fear Dumbledore?"

"Fudge knows, deep down, that Dumbledore's the better wizard. He's been leaning on Dumbledore for a long time, sending letters asking what to do," Lupin replied, "He fears that Dumbledore's using lies and propaganda to create panic and take control of the Ministry."

"That man's asking for the boot!" Naruto said. "If he wants power, then he should act like he has it and use it to stop somebody, whether it be Moldy-wart or Dumbledore."

"And he is." Sirius said, smiling at Naruto's nickname for an enemy they feared to mention. "Because Dumbledore failed to find a new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher, the Ministry's allowed to choose for him. No doubt they'll choose either a spy or somebody they can give power to."

"We don't want the Ministry to act against Dumbledore though," Mr. Weasley said. "They're likely to lock him up in Azkaban. And with Dumbledore gone, You-Know-Who will be free to do whatever he wants uncontested. Without opposition, he can get what he needs to win the coming war."

"And what's that?" Harry asked. "What does he need besides an army? Is it some sort of weapon?"

"That's enough! They know too much already! If you want to tell them any more, you'll have to induct them."

"Good," said both Naruto and Harry. "I'm already in./I want to fight!"

"I'm sorry Harry," surprisingly, it was Lupin who spoke. "You have no idea of the dangers involved here. Molly's right Sirius; we've said too much. Now off to bed you two. You don't want to sleep through Harry's trial, do you?"

With that said, the boys cleared their plates, went upstairs, and fell asleep.

4,000 words without either AN? I'm on a role!

Thanks to me combining two Order chapters into one, we're two chapters closer to Hogwarts!

Admins, if I have too much 'original text' in a chapter, please give me a warning review/PM with said chapter, and please give me 12 hours to alter it. This will let me remove the questionable material without having to email your support to find out what was wrong and wait a few hours for a response, just to edit the one paragraph that got this story removed. This one may have some original text, but it's not nearly as bad as other fanfictions I've seen that have been on here longer than three months.

I'm somewhat sorry I had Ron swear, but that phrase is one of two things he's known for. Let me assure you, that if somebody swears something worse, something like Hidan, it will be skipped in typing or $&%* 'd.

So Naruto's secret is revealed to the Order, only Harry and Dumbledore completely trust him and Fukasaku, he removed and quieted down Sirius' mother, and declared a prank war on the twins.

Who's ready for an ongoing prank war? You'll have to wait a few chapters, but it will be relatively small things that escalate.

I can't think of any real critiques about the story content here. There may be some about the dinner talk, but I'll have to see and answer each question individually.

Peace out!
