Chapter 3: In the stormy night
"Target name and age?"
"Harry Potter and he is 15 years old."
"His physical description?"
"Stands at around 5 foot 7, unruly black hair, green eyes, and has a lighting bolt scar on his forehead."
After talking to the headmaster about there room arrangements, to which Sasuke got directions to, he went back to Naruto, who had obediently stayed where he was, looking through the portfolio and learning its contents. So now they were sitting in a moderate size lounge on a huge couch with Sasuke holding the portfolio and questioning Naruto's knowledge.
"His Friends' names, ages, and physical descriptions?"
"There are too many can't you narrow it down a little?"
"Best friends then dobe, at least your brain should be able to handle that...," Naruto pouted and muttered things about 'stupid teme' and so on. But he still answered the questions.
"Hermione Ganger is 15 but going 16. She stands at around 5 foot 5, large curly brown hair reaching to her elbow, brown eyes, and slightly large front teeth.
The other one is Ron Weasley he is 15 as well, he stands at around 5 foot 9, and is quite pale with freckles on his face. He has red hair but not the same dark shade that Gaara's got, and blue eyes."
Sasuke was impressed the dobe actually managed to learn all the key points of the mission and give accurate descriptions of each person. Naruto just wanted to get this done soon so that he could go out and explore the grounds with Sasuke. The raven put the portfolio down and stood up stretching a few 'pops' came off him as his bones aligned themselves; he yawned slightly and scratched the back of his head. He gave one look at Naruto and gave his usual 'hnh' showing his approval of how the little test went.
"So can I go now teme?"
"Sure and since you were sleeping on the train, you can also take the first shift while I go get some sleep," Sasuke smirked slightly and went into his own room. Naruto glared at him and picked up the mask that was lying on the coffee table; he set the fox mask in place and re-checked his pouch and vest for all of his equipment, and then made his way out to explore.
Naruto had been walking for only a few minutes and he was already mesmerised by the school, every path he chose held something new. From the moving staircase to the talking portraits that hung on the wall. He was now walking upside down, on the ceiling watching a ghost silently filter through the walls
'Are we there yet Kit?'
'It's been a long time since I heard from you, you lazy old fox where have you been?'
'I don't like this new place; there is so much chakra in the air that its irritating my senses...this place stinks of death in an odd way...'
'Can't blame you there Kyuubi, there are a lot of dead people in this place.'
'Isn't this a school?'
'There are ghosts here...'
'I see..., well where is he?''
'Who?'
'The Uchiha of course!'
'Sasuke is asleep...'
'And you haven't jumped his bones yet? I'm disappointed in you Kit.'
'Kyuubi I'm not gonna go attacking him, I don't even know how he feels about me yet...'
'Jump his bones then you'll find out!'
'KYUUBI!'
'Shush, some ones coming.'
It was stormy night; lightning shuddered through the window illuminating the dark hallways for brief seconds. The sound of rain and the howl of the wind echoed through the empty corridors giving it a freighting appeal. Unknown to anyone else the corridors weren't that empty, not counting the ghost that float around the place, no, no. But someone invisible or should it be said some invisible people instead? (OMG that rhymed...in an odd way...)
Harry, Hermione, and Ron were all crowed together under the invisibility cloak with Harry taking the lead with his map, they had been on the move for quite some time, and didn't notice the figure stalking them in the shadows. Ron was a little skittish, the night was unwelcoming, and he did not want to meet one of the guards that would be patrolling the corridor; although that was exactly what Harry's plan was. The dark haired teen looked over the map, checking on it for an unknown name, or any type of indication that one of the guards was around.
"Harry care to explain why we are out here and not in our warm beds," asked Hermione a bit annoyed.
"That's also what I was wondering...," came another voice a bit deeper.
"I just want to know who those guards are..., hey wait a sec who said that?" said Harry snapping out of his deep concentration and looking to where the other voice came from.
A person came out of the shadows, his face covered with a fox mask, his blond hair standing out the most with every strike of lightning. His gloved arms were folded across his chest; he stood lazily not really caring about his surroundings. But what shocked the trio the most was that he was hanging upside down from the ceiling with no effort at all.
"Vampire...," uttered Ron, his eyes wide as he watched the guard flip down, standing normally.
"I'm hardly a Vampire," said the guard in a slight hurt voice.
Harry just stared from the figure to his map and back again, but there was nothing the map was blank, no name stood in front of his own name.
"That's a nifty cloak you got there, no wonder you get through this place undetected for so long," said the guard with a chuckle. Harry pulled the cloak off and stared at the guard in disbelief.
"How did you know we were here?" asked Hermione who seemed like the only one who hadn't completely freaked out yet.
"You're not hiding you cha-I mean Magic, I have been trained to track people by their magical signature. I also have been trained to hide my own that's why I don't appear on that little map of yours"
"How did you...?" spluttered Harry hiding the map away.
"I can sense the chak-er..., well erm, the magic that is coming off the map; I can sense it as well, that and I have been following you all for quite some time now, and when ever there was poor lighting you would remove the cloak to get a look at the map..."
Harry cursed inwardly, but kept looking at the guard. The man seemed to be laughing at him; his mocking stance, was jut provoking him.
"I suggest that you three go to bed now...oh and if you need me my name it's Naruto," with that the guard shifted his foot and was gone with another flash of lightning. The trio ran through the corridor hoping to find the guard again, but found no sign of him.
"I guess we should just go to bed Harry...," said Ron already making his way back to the Gryffindor room. Harry threw one more look into the empty corridor and followed his friends back to his room; what he didn't hear was the low giggle that echoed through the hallway.
Oh Kyuubi what a foul mouth you have hahahahaha
