Where was Dumbledore, and what was was he doing? Harry caught sight of the headmaster only twice over the next few weeks. He rarely appeared at meals anymore, and Harry was sure Hermione was right in thinking that he was leaving school for days at a time. Harry was starting to think that Dumbledore had forgotten his lessons.
Halfway through October came their first trip of the term to Hogsmeade. Harry had wondered whether these trips would still be allowed, given the increasingly tight security measures around the school, but was pleased to know that they were going ahead.
While in Hogsmeade they ran into Slughorn, who was trying to get Harry to go to one of his parties again but on the night in question Harry had another lesson with Dumbledore…luckily. So Harry told Slughorn this, "Unlucky again! Ah well…you can't evade me forever, Harry!"
"I can't believe you've wriggled out of another one," Hermione said, shaking her head. "They're not that bad, you know… they're even fun sometimes…" But when she caught sight of Ron's expression, "oh look- they've got deluxe sugar quills- those would last hours!"
But with that Harry noticed something or rather someone. "Professor Namikaze!" he called out she froze as if and turned as if she hadn't expected anyone to notice her. Harry ran up to her the others following.
"Are you alright Professor?" Hermione asked noticing that she was looking around slowly.
"Yeah I am fine," she said quickly trying to smile.
But the little outburst caused a cloaked figure to stop, his three companions stopped and turned to face the tallest of them.
"Kakashi-Sensei, what's wrong?" Hinata asked.
"He reacted to the name Namikaze, I think I have heard that names somewhere before," Shikamaru said. Sakura was looking for who had called out to see who they were talking to. And there was a girl with shoulder length brown hair talking to three people, and she heard one of them call the brunette Professor.
"Kakashi-Sensei, who is Namikaze?" Shikamaru asked. Hinata activated her byakugan and took a step back.
"Her Chakra is bigger than Naruto-Kun's but it looks like his," she said softly.
"Is this why we came here so you could talk to Naruto without us knowing?" Sakura asked leaking killer intent at silver haired Shinobi.
"Look at the time I have to go find a black cat so I can avoid it and inevitably be late to wherever I may or may not have to be," he said but before he move he was caught by Shikamaru's jutsu.
"Kakashi-Sensei, you aren't going anywhere until you tell us what is going on," Sakura said cracking her knuckles. A look of pure terror over came Kakashi he was as good as dead, if he didn't talk they were going to kill him if he did…well he didn't know how much changes Naruto had gone thru and she might kill him and if she didn't Tsunade and Gaara would.
"How about I tell you everything," came a new voice they all turned to see the Professor standing there.
"Naruto-Kun," Hinata squeaked.
"Let's go somewhere we can talk," she said leading them in the Three Broomsticks; they found a table at the back way from everyone.
"So what is going on? Where have you been since the end of the war?" Sakura asked in a low voice to make sure that no one over heard her but it was necessary since no one besides them could speak Japanese.
"I have been traveling around, while I tried to figure things out," she said softly, "Let's start from the beginning or what you guys know as the beginning."
"What does that mean?" Sakura asked.
"About seventeen years ago the fourth Hokage sealed the Kyuubi in me," Naruko said, "Haven't you guys ever wondered why he chose me?"
Everyone but Kakashi nodded, "well you see he couldn't ask another parent to do something he himself was willing to do, and he was sure that I wouldn't miss use the power…and I had one more thing going my way. My mother was the previous Kyuubi host."
"The Fourth Hokage is…" Sakura started her eyes wide.
"His father," Shikamaru added.
"Well half right…you see I have never been a guy. My father, Minato Namikaze knew his wish of me to be treated like a hero wouldn't be recognized. So along with the Kyuubi he sealed his and my mother's chakra within me. Then he also placed a second seal hidden under the first. The place a henge over me to protect me, image could have happened to me the daughter of the Fourth Hokage?" she said smiling at them, as thought after thought raced thru their minds none better than the first.
"When did you find out?" Hinata asked.
"I found out my dad was the fourth when Pain attacked and I almost released the seal completely, everything else was when I learned to control the Kyuubi's chakra."
"So you have control of the Kyuubi?" Shikamaru asked sounding impressed.
"Yeah but any good that does me seeing how I am no long the Kyuubi's host," Naruko said pouting slightly.
"You are no longer a Jinchuriki?" Sakura asked.
"No I am I just hold the Jubi in me now," she answered.
"Naruto-kun, what is your name or real name?" Hinata asked.
"Naruko," she said smiling at Hinata who started twiddling her fingers as she blushed.
"Naruko-Chan…dddooo you like mmmmmen or wwwomenn?" Hinata asked her stutter returning with a vengeance.
"Um to be honest there are some guys I find to be attractive but I find myself still being attracted to women too," Naruko said innocently, suddenly all of their faces went bright red as the stared at her.
"What's wrong are you guys not feeling well?" she asked just as innocently.
Harry Ron and Hermione sat in the Three Broomsticks, watching their favorite Professor talking to four strangers, "I wonder what she said to do that to them?" Ron asked as the four strangers went completely red. Harry didn't answer he knew how easily she could do that someone whether it was intentional or not, from firsthand experience as he remember last time he was in her office.
"I wonder if there is something in the water wherever she is from to make such attractive women," Ron said looking at Naruko's two female friends.
"The guys aren't that bad either," Hermione said her eyes falling on Shikamaru then over at Kakashi who had most of his covered.
"How do you guess that? I mean sure I guess some people could find him attractive but the other bloke has his face covered you can only see one eye and his cool yet strange hair," Ron said, "I wonder how he got his hair like that…do you think that would look good on me?"
The silvered haired man was patting Naruko on the head while she pouted, Harry couldn't help but to think how cute she looked and by the look of her friends neither could they. Soon Naruko got up along with her four friends. Harry watched as she gave the Silver haired man a hug, then she turned to a pink haired girl and hugged her. Then she turned to the last man in the group she said something that caused him to turn his head and say "mendokuse," before she hugged him and gave him a swift kiss on the cheek chasing him to blush slightly and Harry want to get up and curse him. Then she turned to the last girl a very pretty girl with long black hair that almost looked blue, she had strange pale lavender eyes. As Naruko hugged her she whispered something to the dark haired girl that caused her face to red with embarrassment.
"She is out of my league but I think you have a shot mate," Ron said.
"I don't know?" Harry said as she left.
"If the 'Chosen One' can get the girl than who can?" Ron asked. On the way back to school they saw Katie bell acting very strange she rose into the air with a strange grace. Then she fell to the ground, before Harry could react, Naruko had appeared, Harry couldn't see what she had done but Katie had calmed down.
"Potter go get Snape-Senpai," Naruko order but Hagrid had returned with McGonagall.
"What is going on?" McGonagall asked.
"Miss Bell touched that and has been curse, I have slowed it down enough so her life isn't in immediate danger but I think we should get her help, I didn't want to leave what she was carrying here while I took her to Snape-Senpai," Naruko explained quickly.
"Very well…but maybe Hagrid should…" but before she could even finish speaking Naruko had already pick Katie up like she weighted nothing and was gone.
"Potter your scarf if you please." McGonagall said and Harry gave it to her and they went off to see Dumbledore.
