Yo! Here's the seccond chapter of the fanfic! It's not very long, but I hope you like it . Thank you, MiseryluvsDeath aka Fidele, Meca Vegeta, grumpywinter and ArjunaAnja for the reviews. For grumpywinter: I do plan that the nins would use wands AND jutsus in Hogwarts, but mostly their techniques. After all the Naruto characters are Shinobi '. Have a nice reading. I own neither Naruto, nor Harry Potter.
Naruto's yawning finally caused Sakura to start shooting reproaching looks at him, while Sai was counting how many times his blond teammate had opened his mouth that morning. The three ninjas were waiting alongside with Team Gai at the north gate of Konoha. The sun was just coming up the horizon and shining over the tips of the trees of the green forest which was not far from the gate. As usually Kakashi was late and everybody was nervously looking around for any signs that the silver-haired Jounin was coming.
While the seven Shinobi were waiting for the last man of their eight-person team, Lee was trying to convince Sakura that her youthful eyes were shining brighter than the morning sun and that she probably had drank from the spring of youth before she came to the meeting place. Meanwhile Tenten was slamming her head repeatedly at Neji's because of her jump-suited friend's antics and the long-haired Jounin just stood there with a stoic face putting great efforts into not scolding or do the same as his female teammate, the only difference that his forehead would be making contact not with a shoulder, but with the solid gate next to him. Seeing what his mini copy was doing, Gai only gave the boy thumbs up behind the pink-haired kunoichi's back and this made the Hyuuga roll his eyes; a thing he did rarely. Sai was just acting like himself, in other words – stood there emotionless.
Finally Kakashi came out of a cloud, which was followed by the usual reactions of Naruto and Sakura. Poor Lee was standing in front of the pink-head, when she angrily raised her finger at the place where her sensei was standing, thus hitting Konoha's Beautiful Green Beast and sending him a few feet away. She was just about to ask him whether he was alright when he jumped on his feet and yelled enthusiastically, "Sakura-san! The spring time of youth is burning inside you like a youthful fire!"
"Um, yeah, sure…" answered Sakura a bit puzzled. She was never going to get used to Lee's the manner of speaking. The girl was wondering how his teammates coped with two 'Gai's' in their team, when she wasn't able to deal with one.
"Are we finally get going then?" asked Team Kakashi's leader smiling.
"You are the one to talk," mumbled Naruto as the platoon headed out after checking their wireless communication.
The eight-man cell was traveling in a formation, in which Team Gai was in front of Team Kakashi, due to their speed.
"I want you to be very careful when your teams teleport to England. I hope my choice of Ninjas was correct, since the Akatsuki are targeting Naruto. Now with him abroad, they won't go after Kyuuby, unless they find out where the boy is. If there is a possibility that this might happen while you are on this year-long mission, I want one of you to report to me immediately," explained the Godaime to the Jounins standing in her office. They only nodded and the woman continued. "Knowing the methods of the organization, they will are probably having spies here in Konoha, so only your teams, Shizune and I know about this mission. I want it to be kept this way, understood?" after receiving a positive answer, the Hokage sent off the two men.
The ninjas reached their destination in a short amount of time.
They stopped at a small clearing, surrounded by thick trees where Dumbledore was waiting for them. This didn't surprise the Shinobi, for they had learnt this fact from Neji halfway through the woods. All eight of them gave the silver-bearded man a curt nod for a greeting and waited for further instructions.
The old man only lifted an eyebrow at the rude way the Nins greeted him, but he guessed that was their manner. Dumbledore cleared his throat and started talking, "You will be traveling to a certain pub, called 'The Leaky Cauldron' with the help of this portkey," he showed them an old hat, lying on the ground. When receiving questioning looks, the wizard told them not to worry and that it wouldn't do them any harm. "From there we will discuss your mission in more details and I will leave you to look around. Now hold on to this hat. Three, two…"
'What the…?' thought Naruto before he felt strange. He needed to blink a few times to realize that all of them were spinning fast. He looked to his left and saw Kakashi's bored expression and next to the Jounin was Sakura, looking like she was going to throw out. On the kitsune's right were Sai, Neji and Tenten, the latter was staring with wide chocolate eyes directly at the hat and refusing to look any other way. On the other hand, Lee and Gai were enjoying themselves immensely, thinking of this as training. The blond only heard when Dumbledore told them to let go on three.
"One, two…" too eager to get on his feet as soon as possible, the blue-eyed let go on two and soon felt that he landed on a cold floor.
Before he was able to get up, something knocked the air out of him. Just when he opened his eyes, he heard a loud "THUD!" next to his outstretched right hand and then some jingling of something metal.
"Oh, crap," he recognized Tenten's voice and realized she was on top of him. She pushed herself up and held a hand towards him, which he took and also stood up.
After helping the blond up, Tenten noticed that the two of them were in a small room lit by a few candles. The room was full with gold, some sort of strange money and other expensive-looking possessions. On the floor was lying Sakura, covered in coins from head to toe, her gloved arm the only thing that could make her presence clear. Obviously the two girls had also let go earlier, hoping the bad feeling would end. The young kunoichi's fist clenched and the pink-head shot up, yelling in frustration "I hate this place already!"
"Ano, Sakura-chan… where are we?" asked Naruto, still looking around with interest.
"How should I know, baka?" her glare went unnoticed by her teammate. "Some kind of a safe, maybe… Hey, why are there only three of us?" she added after noticing her other teammates were absent.
"Dunno," Tenten raised her shoulders. "Maybe something went wrong and we got stuck here. At least there's a door, let's try opening it," the girl suggested after seeing a large massive looking door on her left. She went to it and pushed it, but it wouldn't budge.
"Stand back! I'll try!" announced Naruto, happy that he had a chance to perform his technique. "Kagebunshin no Jutsu!" he yelled and his clone appeared next to him. The blond held out his hand and the other Naruto started forming a spinning ball of air.
The Kyuubi vessel dismissed his Kagebunshin and went straight at the door, crashing his "RASENGAN!" into it, causing a cloud of smoke to appear.
After the cloud cleared the three Shinobi saw that there was a small crack on the solid door. Sakura clenched her fist and went running at her 'opponent'.
"SHANNARO!" when the girl's fist made contact with its target, everything in the room began to shake, towers of coins started falling. "The stupid thing doesn't even have a hole on it!" protested Sakura, her green eyes glued to the now slightly bigger crack.
"Kuso… What do we do know?" asked angrily Naruto.
"Where are Naruto, Sakura and Tenten?" was the first thing Kakashi asked after Sai, Gai, Lee, Neji, Dumbledore and himself landed on their feet on the floor of a poorly lit pub. There weren't many clients, but the few who saw the odd looking people were shocked, to say the least.
An old witch pushed her friend, pointing at the newcomers with her finger, not bothering to be polite. They only met the infamous Hyuuga glare, which made them leave their table and walk out the door of the pub.
Suddenly a small man, with white hair approached the Ninjas and Dumbledore. He smiled at the silver-bearded man and looked at Konoha's Shinobi.
"What brings you here, Mr. Dumbledore?" the man asked in a language that wasn't understandable for Kakashi and the others.
"I would like to reserve rooms for my friends here, Tom," the wizard told the person, who was obviously the bar-tender. "But… there is one problem," he turned towards the two Jounins. "We are missing…" he did a headcount, "three people?"
Both Gai and Kakashi gave curt nods and Dumbledore frowned. He looked at Tom and started saying something but was interrupted by Kakashi.
"We would like two large bedrooms. It will be nice if they are next to each other," the Jounin spoke in almost perfect English and thus received glares from his companions.
The bar-tender bowed and led all of them up a flight of stairs where he showed the Shinobi their rooms. Dumbledore dismissed the man and entered one of the rooms along with the five foreigners.
"What's going on here?" asked for the first time Gai, obviously worried about his only female student. He looked at the old man questionable, his glare demanding for an answer.
"It seems like our three friends let go of the portkey too early and thus were transported someplace else," he stroke his beard thoughtfully. "I have never heard of such an event, so I don't know where the three of them might be right now," he looked at the Shinobi and finished quickly, "but I think they are not too far from here, maybe somewhere on Diagon Alley."
"Diagon Alley?" Neji asked frowning.
"Yes, the alley you will see just by looking through that window," the silver-head pointed towards a window and all of the Shinobi's gazes were directed towards it.
Lee gaped at the marvelous street before his eyes. There were so many shops with things the five of them had never seen before. The sight was so colorful and strange for them that even Sai had to blink a few times, before fully comprehending where they were. The street was full people chattering about different things: a group of teenagers were making jokes and laughing while walking down the alley; a mother was scolding at her two children; some witches were sitting in a nearby shop, talking excitedly.
Kakashi shook his head and put a hand on his wire-less transmitter.
"Naruto, Sakura, Tenten, do you hear me?" he asked in the little microphone on his vest. After he repeated the question a several times, a buzzing sound was heard and Naruto's voice rang into the Shinobi's ears.
"KAKASHI-SENSEI!" all of the Ninjas in the room twitched in the pain they felt in their ears from the blonde's loud manner of speaking, in this case – shouting. "Kakashi-sensei, you've got to get us outta here!" shrieked the kitsune before a 'BANG' was heard and Sakura's voice echoed in the room the six men were in, causing the Shinobi to fall on the flour, clutching their heads.
"BAKA! Stop panicking!" after this she continued calmer. "Kakashi-sensei, we're in a room, filled with some kind of money and other expensive-looking stuff."
"Oh, okay," Kakashi got on his feet again and so did the others.
"What do you mean by OKAY?!" the five of them fell yet again, this time from the sound of Naruto's, Sakura's AND Tenten's voice.
Before Kakashi could answer Dumbledore's calm voice explained what had happened to the three Shinobi.
"I think I know where they are. Off we go towards Gringotts, the bank of the Wizarding World," with a wave of his hand, he gestured that the five men should follow.
The group exited the pub and began their short trip towards the bank. It was easy to spot, for the great white building was towering above the other smaller ones.
During the short walk to the bank, the different sights were like a fist for the ninjas' eyes. But it looked like they were the center of attention on the Alley, as people of different ages stopped to whisper at their friends and family when Konoha's finest Shinobi walked by.
"How did you learn English in one night, rival Kakashi?" asked Gai after he flashed his trade mark grin at a young woman, who was looking at him strangely.
"My Sharingan," answered simply the Copy Nin shooting a quick gaze towards the other Jounin.
"We better tell Pein-sama about this," a cold voice was heard near the spot the Konoha Shinobi had disappeared.
"Then hurry up and lets' go there," another voice said.
Tadadam! I'm waiting for your reviews with anxiety. I'm sorry if there are many mistakes and if you had hard time understanding what I had written. Also I'll be going to the seaside and will come back on the 14th, so I won't be able to update until at least the 20th. Well now... ja na!
