hello and welcome top this newly beta and as shuch readable, it mostly about the other rocy 9 trying to fine out what Naruto is hiding thought it might not be to hard for you to work out,

i own nothing but the plot itself

CH2

In times of old when I was knew

And Hogwarts barely started

The founders of our noble school

Thought to never be parted:

United by a common goal,

They had selfsame yearning

To make the world's best magic school

And pass along their learning.

"Together we will build and teach!"

The four good friends decided

And never did they dream that they

Might someday be divided,

For were there such friends anywhere

As Slytherin and Gryffindor?

Unless it was the second pair

Of Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw

So how could it have gone so wrong?

How could such friendships fail?

Why, I was there and so can tell

The whole sad sorry tale.

Said Slytherin, "We'll just teach those whose ancestry is purist."

said Ravenclaw, "We'll teach those whose Intelligence is surest."

said Gryffindor, "We'll teach all those with brave deeds to their name,"

said Hufflepuff, "I'll teach the lot, and treat them just the same."

These differences caused little strife

When they first came into light,

For each of the four founders had

A house in which they might

Take only those they wanted, so,

For instance, Slytherin

Took only pure-blood wizards

Of great cunning, just like him,

And only those of sharpest mind

Were taught by Ravenclaw

While the bravest and the boldest

Went to daring Gryffindor.

Good Hufflepuff, she took the rest,

And taught them all she knew,

Thus the Houses and their founders

Retained friendships firm and true.

So Hogwarts worked in harmony

For several happy years,

, but the discord crept among us

Feeding on our faults and fears.

The house that, like pillars four,

Had once held up our school,

Now turned upon each other and,

Divided, sought to rule.

And for a while it seemed the school

Must meet an early end,

What with duelling and with fighting

And the clash of friend on friend

And at last there came a morning

When old Slytherin departed

And though the fighting then died out

He left us quite down hearted.

And never since the founder four

Were whittled down to three

Have the Houses been united

As they once were meant to be.

And now the Sorting Hat is here

And you all know the score:

I sort you into Houses

Because that is what I'm for,

, but this year I'll go further.

Listen closely to my song:

Though condemned I am to split you

still I worry that it's wrong,

Though I must fulfill my duty

And must quarter every year

still I wonder whether sorting

May not bring the end I fear:

Oh, know the perils, read the signs,

The warning history shows,

For our Hogwarts is in danger

From external, deadly foes

And we must unite inside her

Or we'll crumble from within

I have told you, I have warned you...

So let the sorting now begin.

Naruto stood with the rest of the group in the back line of student waiting to be sorted. The rest of the school was taking the time to laugh at the new students which jumped when the hat started to sing. This included all , but one exchange student.

Naruto who had known of the hat just feared what it may find in his head. Plus he had never completely got ride of his fear of ghost.

"Welcome everyone!" said Dumbledore, "Some of you may have noted the new students that are to old to be first year. They are exchange students from Japan and they will be sorted into are fifth year. I know all of us will give them a warm welcome. You will all remember that even though there are many differences between us, neither of us is right or wrong and we should take the time to learn about their ways as they learn about our. Now let the sorting begin." finished Dumbledore.

And so the sorting began. After some time and many people who have nothing to do with the plot, we get to Naruto, the first of the exchange students to be sorted.

Naruto sat on the stool and the hat was placed on his head. There was a scream which echoed around the Great Hall as the hat jump off Naruto head and flop to the ground. To say the school was shocked would be an understatement. Never had the hat scream, let alone jump of a child's head. Naruto big smile flickered, but held fast.

"You could have warned me." said the hat as it was pick up, "I did not know someone could go though so much suffering, let alone a child." It sighed, and Naruto big smile lost a couple of teeth.

The hat did not like saying that. What is in one's mind is theirs alone, however this would stop all question about what had really scared him. Of course, it was also true and would stop a lot of question about his past, the pain of his childhood.

"Right, we waiting for me to be put back on," said the hat in a somewhat shaky voice.

-In Naruto's head-

"Nice save." said Naruto, who had pick up on the hat's thinking.

"Thanks."

"Finally, someone I can scare! I have be in here for so long and the damn brat has never been scared of me, but you scream like a little girl! It's a pleasure to meet you." said the big, laugh fox who sat on an arm chair.

"Should he not be on the other side of the bars?" said the hat.

"No. He's allowed anywhere he can go, which is in my mind. The cage is now just his bedroom." said Naruto in a matter-of-fact way.

"Right, well let see then shall we? You, Naruto, have been a very naught boy, but I see you are somewhat trying to get back online so to speak. Smart though you hide it, so I guess Ravenclaw is out. Hufflepuff is a big no-no. Slytherin, well, how does 'supreme ruler of all' sound to you, Naruto?" the hat asked.

"It sound great, but something tell me that it not right." Naruto, look down a little knowing that was wrong to want to rule over everything.

A leader should be for the people, not rule over them, but work with them for the better of all.

"And so I can't sent you down the path you are fighting to get off, so there goes Slytherin."

-In the Great Hall (Harry POV)-

"Gryffindor!" said the hat.

"It took it about bloody time." said Ron.

Harry had to throw his picture of Naruto away. He had Naruto with two loving parents, caring brothers and sisters, lot of friend and overall loved by everyone. The perfect life of someone who wouldn't know what suffering was,yet the hat did not even flinch with the suffering he had gone through, so what had happened to get that reaction for the hat?

Harry looked at Naruto again as he came and sat by them. His blonde wild hair, his blue eye which shone with happiness, the whisker-like scars, which made him the cutest thing Harry had ever seen. Then it hit him, scars, he should have seen it sooner. Why would a boy have scars? Sure they look good on Naruto, but still.

Harry looked at the rest of Naruto. His hands were free of arm, and he now noticed that the neck of his jumper came right up to his chin. The rest of his body was covered, so he couldn't see if there was anything else. Shikamaru was up next. And of course he when to Gryffindor with Naruto. Next came the pink hair girl, named Sakura who went to Ravenclaw. The boy with the hood, which he still had up, who was call Shino went the Ravenclaw. The girl called Hinata, who had pure white eyes, and the large boy name Choji got sorted into Hufflepuff. The last two went to Gryffindor and were called Kiba, who had a small puppy resting on his head and Ino, who had long blonde hair.
