I think this is quite a long one :)
enjoy :)
The two ninja didn't show that the journey had effected them in anyway. The only evidence was Sasuke's now menacing eyes.
"Welcome to number 10 Grimauld place!" Dumbledore exclaimed. They had landed in a large kitchen area. The two ninja could here voices coming from the next room.
"Is that Dumbledore?" A woman's voice asked. The wizard lead the two of them into a long thin room. The room had one long table forced into it. About 10 other people were sat around the table. Their gazes on the two new arrivals. Sasuke blinked, deactivating the sharingon.
"Professor Dumbledore? May I ask, who are they?" A man spoke this time. He was worn and his long shaggy hair made him look even worse.
"Ahh, Sirius. These are the new teachers I have hired. Come," he pushed, attempted to push, the two of them towards seats, "let us get comfy. They we will introduce ourselves."
Sasuke sat first, Naruto followed shortly after. "I am Sasuke Uchiha."
"Naruto Uzumaki." He stated his name blankly. Dumbledore did the rest of the explaining. For both sides.
"Sasuke and Naruto are teaching a new subject this year. One that has never been taught at Hogwarts before. Partly because we did not know of their existence and partly because many people don't agree with it. The two men you see before you are ninja. Trained in the art of killing their whole lives. They will be teaching mostly defence techniques to out students. But at the same time they will be working with you, the Order of the Phoenix and will be protecting the school."
"Ninja?"
"Kill?" People started firing random words around the table.
"You make us sound like monsters Dumbledore-sama." Sasuke joked. To the immense surprise of others.
"Forgive me," the womans said, it was the same voice from before, "but they are just children. Are they even of age yet?"
"Molly, you are probably offending our guests," Dumbledore said. "Why don't you ask them yourself?"
"Yes, yes, I'm sorry," She looked flustered. "but how old are you exactly?"
"16," Sasuke told her simply.
"16?!?" Many cried in outrage.
"We have seen things they you can't imagine. We have done things that are unspeakable. We are not children, we have not been for many years." It was Naruto who told them all this. Sasuke leaned back in his chair and nodded along with the Blondes words.
"These two are the best ninja in their village. Everything they say is true."
"Surely they are just like our Aura's?" Lupin was a thoughtful man, he sat back into his chair and surveyed the two killers.
"Yes and No Remus, they don't use magic you see."
"Well, what use are they then?" Sirius challenged.
"We don't use magic as it were. We use something much more powerful. Chakra. It means we don't have to rely on those sticks you use. Sasuke told them. He wasn't trying to be offensive, he just told it how it was.
"You mean wands? Lupin laughed. Sasuke shrugged.
"Whatever, I will show you if you wish me to. However we don't ask for people's beliefs, we ask for trust." If Sasuke had said anything like that a few years ago, Naruto would have thrown a fit.
"Show them what you want," Dumbledore queitly smirked. He knew what they were capable of.
In the blink of an eye, Sasuke had his Katana drawn and Chidori running down it. The wizards all drew there wands, preparing themselves for an attack that they knew they couldn't defend themselves against. In the next second, Naruto used his fathers jutsu, moving in the blink of an eye. He placed all of the wands on the table in front of them. All they saw was a flash of yellow. He didn't really appeared to have moved at all. The wizards blinked in shock. They all fumbled around for there wands. Sasuke slipped the blade back into its holster just as quickly and sat there staring at the wizards as if nothing had happened.
"What just happened?" Lupin said after a moment of deliberation. The old professor chuckled lightly to himself.
"That dear friends, is just the beginning of what ninja can do. They use something called a jutsu. More powerful than a spell, a jutsu uses the energy of the wielder. Using hand signs and spoken words to focus their chakra they can create a more effective way of attacking their opponents. Meaning.."
"They don't have to use wands." Lupin nodded. Lupin was a clever, tolerant man. The two ninja, no. Just Sasuke could see he was going to get along with him.
Dumbledore explained everything to the ex-ANBU agents. They were to keep an especially close eye on the Harry Potter boy. It was suspected that he had an unwanted connection with Lord Voldemort. The two were still unsure why they referred to him as a lord but they didn't ask as the information was irrelevant. They were given outlines on their courses which the students were to be getting and their own 'timetables' showing when they were to be patrolling the grounds.
They were also given a room in the dark house. It was opposite one in which some teenage magic users were staying. Harry's friends. According to Dumbledore anyway. The two ninja had given him a chakra scroll. It was very similar to the one the Hokage had. All she had to do was touch the ninjas name on the scroll with her chakra and they would know that she wanted them. All Dumbledore had to do was tap the scroll with his wand.
The two left the room in mysterious swirls of leaves and smoke.
"I'm still not sure about this," both Sirius and Molly Weasley had said. Dumbledore told reassured Sirius that they would not kill any of the Hogwarts students and confirmed to Mrs Weasley that they had been adults in their land for at least 5 years. They both grumbled but didn't question him any further after all he was Albus Dumbledore, the greatest wizard of all time. They would just have to accept it.
After reappearing in their new room Sasuke pulled out the emergency scroll. These were usually given on long term missions as a way of contacting home. Not many ninja used them, they were too embarrassed to. Sasuke had to use his because they couldn't get mission reports to Konoha any other way. He sat in the middle of the floor and opened it up. Tsunade should be watching the other end, he thought. He picked up a ninja art brush and began scribbling down information for the old lady.
'Fully briefed. Mission details clear and simple. Still no change to foxy boy. See only one threat, Voldemort.' She was obviously working as she replied straight away.
'Oi, Uchiha, this is the Hokage that your speaking to. Show some respect!' He smirked. He could hear the drunken woman shouting the words in his mind.
'My apologies Lady Hokage.'
'Hmph. Whatever brat. Anyway, as for your mission report that was worse than one of Kakashi's!' He blinked. She never joked about his old sensei like that. Sasuke never even got to apologise to his sensei after his return. He was pretty choked up about his death but never showed it.
'Hn' he wrote back.
'I will be expecting a FULL report within the next few days. If I don't hear from you, trust me when I say you'll hear from me!'
'Hn.' He wrote again.
'Urg brat. Please put Naruto on.' She added her last request slowly. He saw the words appear on the scroll as if she was almost regretting asking.
"Oi! Foxy boy, Lady Hokage wants to speak to you." Naruto sat opposite Sasuke and took the brush.
'This is Naruto Uzumaki.'
'Finally brat. I was wondering when I was going to hear from you.' She used his old nickname, hoping he would say something more Naruto like in return.
'It hasn't even been a day Granny.' Sasuke grinned.
'Hmph.' She put, trying to subtly encourage him.
'...'
'Oi brat. Don't be rude. I'm the Hokage, you wait for me patiently'
'Are you drinking Granny?'
'No! Of course not! Anyway. I have told Uchiha that I want a FULL report within the next few days. I have to go and sort that kid Konohomaru out. He's stuck in the hospital again.' Smooth Tsunade, Sasuke grinned continuously.
'Konohomaru? Why? What's up with him?'
'Nothing major. He's been training Creating his own jutsu. He's so much like you brat. I'm going. Get back to work!'
'HAI! Tell him something for me?' He asked.
'Of course. What is it you wish to tell him?'
'Tell him.. . Tell him, well done. Get well and train hard.'
'I will do. Dismissed!' The scroll sealed itself indicating she had closed hers.
"Konohomaru?" Sasuke asked, pretending not to remember the almost identical copy of Naruto when he was younger.
"The third hokages grandson. I secretly trained him my whole life." Sasuke didn't know that. He knew that Naruto had taught him his 'sexy jutsu' back when he was a genin. They had become pretty close friends.
The next few days were uneventful, still Sasuke gave the Hokage his report and told her about the meetings of the order. The two of them still hadn't seen the kids that were also boarding in the house. Probably because they hadn't yet eaten with the wizards. The third morning of their stay however, they did join.
"Breakfast!" Mrs Weasley shouted up the stairs. They emerged from their room wearing only their sleepwear. Which wasn't much. They had on baggy three quarter length cotton pants, held up with a large blue sash. Naruto had his necklace on much to the pleasure of the young Uchiha. The other inhabitants stepped out of their rooms at the same time. Nobody spoke. Nobody moved. They all just stood their, staring at each other. The tall male red head was the first to say anything.
"Shit."
"Ronald!" A bushy haired girl smacked him.
"What?" He turned to glare at the witch.
"Don't be rude. They're guests here."
"Oh right err, sorry?" He rubbed the back of his neck sheepishly. Naruto yawned and Sasuke just grinned menacingly.
"No problem. I am Sasuke Uchiha." They turned to the blonde expecting him to introduce himself.
"Ahh, forgive my friend. He is a little anti-social. This is Naruto Uzumaki."
"Hermione Granger." The girl told them confidently.
"Ron Weasley." Without anymore conversation the ninja disappeared from sight.
"Who are they?" Ron asked Hermione finally. They had just been stood there watching the smoke clear.
"I have no idea. I haven't seen them at Hogwarts before." "No me neither. They're too old to be first years and too young to be in the order..."
"Yes I was just thinking that."
"and did you see their bodies!?!"
"Umm, yes I did err notice." She blushed a faint pink colour and turned towards the stairs.
"Ahh, it's nice to see you grace is with your presence." Mrs Weasley added sarcastically as Ron and Hermione walked in the room. Both their eyes were drawn to the ninja. They were both discussing something. The black haired one laughed at something the blonde had said. They took their seats and began eating. Sirius and Lupin both went to sit with the ninja.
"You know the plan then?" Lupin asked.
"Hai." They nodded.
"Good Moody's been churning us out since you got here."
"You're leaving after lunch, hopefully arriving for the evening." Mr Weasley had just sat down. Sirius was looking rather uncomfortable about the fact that the ninja were going to rescue HIS godson.
"Don't forget, he isn't like you. He's just a teenage boy."
"As we are Sirius. He will be in good hands." Sasuke tried to reassure him. He agreed and didn't try and argue with the boy.
"You not at work dad?" Ron asked Mr Weasley.
"No. Not today. There's a meeting with the order. And we're going to get Harry this evening."
"You're getting Harry today?!" Hermione panicked.
"Yes. Why is that a problem?" Naruto asked the girl confused.
"Hermione wanted the room to be tidy before Harry gets here." Ron joked.
"Shut up Ron. I am actually missing Harry, I just didn't realise he was getting here so soon. She frowned at Ron then suddenly turned her head back towards the ninja.
"You said 'we', are you going too?"
Before they could even have a chance at answering, Ron interjected,
"Dad, you said you had to be a part of the order to go and get Harry!"
"Yes Hermione we are assisting the wizards in retrieving your friend." Sasuke told her.
"Ron!" His dad said. "You do have to be a part of the order."
"Then why are they going? They don't look any older than us. Why can't we go too?" He demanded childishly.
"Ronald they are part of the order. Not only that but they are teachers at Hogwarts." Ron was silently fuming but didn't say anything to the two new professors.
"I don't mean to be rude in anyway," Hermione started, "but how old are you?"
"We are 16." Sasuke said. "and no, we're not children."
"You're the same age as us." She stated matter of factly. Sasuke stood up.
"Well, it was 'lovely' getting to know you all but we'd better go slip into something more suitable if we're collecting Harry." He took a last swig of his drink and disappeared from the room.
"I thought you weren't of age, you're not aloud to apparate." It was Hermione who spoke again. Naruto shrugged.
"Hermione, we're not even wizards." Naruto stood from his chair and copied Sasuke's move.
"You can't be serious." Ron said once he was in the clear.
"Yeah, I am Ron. Although I'm not happy about it. Dumbledore hired them."
Hermione, being the more interlectual one of the group asked the more apporopriate questions.
"Hired? He said they weren't wizards, what are they then?"
"They're trained killers Hermione. They're ninja." Before Ron could laugh Mr Weasley told them the small trick they did at the first meeting.
"Oh. OK."
"Naruto, did you have to bring that scroll?" Sasuke complained as he lay lazily across the small bed which he had been given.
"Yes. It was Jariyas."
"Oh right. Well next time you leave it behind the door I'm going to burn it!"
"Whatever." Naruto shrugged.
"Oh come on man talk to me!"
"What do you wish to talk about?"
"Anything. You're so boring. I'd have more fun talking to that house elf that lives here." He just shrugged and continued to meditate. There was a weak knock at the door. With blinding speed the lounging black haired ninja threw a shuriken with chakra strings attached into the door. He pulled it open. A red haired boy was stood there sheepishly.
"Ya?" Sasuke asked with his head dangling back off the side of the bed.
He twiddled various things around his fingers, some dangerous, some not.
"Urmm, Dumbledore's arrived. They're about to set off. Jumping to there feet gracefully, the two ninja pushed there way through the door which Ron was standing in. Sasuke slapped his back as he slid out the room.
"Cheers."
"No problem." He muttered back after they were gone.
They made there way clumsily, for ninja anyway, down the stairs. They entered the room sophisticatedly. A number of members of the order were there. Some which they had and some which they had never seen before stood in the kitchen with broomsticks. Dumbledore, Moody, Lupin, Kingsley, from whom they had and a young girl with bubblegum hair. Two others stood in the shadows. They didn't have brooms and so no one gave them a second glance. Dumbledore greeted them both and introduced them to the girl. Tonks she was called. Her eyes never strayed from the pretty blonde.
"OK well now you're all here and we've had introductions," Dumbledore began. He sat at the table as he wasn't coming, "There's the small matter of how our ninja here are getting to Surrey."
"You can't fly?" Tonks asked.
"No. But we can run."
"Run?" Moody's gruff voice cut in.
"Yes run."
"You'll never keep up." They both shrugged comically.
"Do you want to take us up on that?" Naruto asked stepping forward to meet the Aurors gaze. With the deadly aura coming off the blonde, Moody gulped and shook his head. As it was, the ninja did keep up and weren't even out of breath when they arrived.
"Ready?" Moody asked. Everyone nodded. He used his wand to open the front door. The ninja waited at the bottom of the stairs.
"Very clean these muggles aren't they?" Tonks remarked.
"Ahh, here we go." Moody pulled his wand out again when he found the room which presumably belonged to Harry. After blasting open the door they were all faced by a skinny, black haired boy holding out his wand to the strangers.
"Wha-Why are you here?" He stuttered out.
"To rescue you of course." Moody's gruff voice told him.
"Oh right, umm." He didn't really know what to say. "I'll umm, go get my stuff. You can go and make yourselves at home downstairs, if you want to that is." He pulled out his huge trunk and threw everything he owned into it.
Thank you
