A/N: This is another new story. Whether or not it will be continued from here on, is up to you people. It is an idea, one of many hundreds, which exist within my head. (Especially when I am revising for my Janruary exams – not a good thing) I had to get it onto paper, and then type it up. Here is the fruits of this labour. I notice that a lot of stories venture into the mysterious ninja 'ANBU', and in this I will be joining them. I hope to reflect the ANBU as much as possible within this story, as the group of ninja shall play a vital part within this story.

This story had bits inspired by various stories, but as I like to point out with all of my stories, they are all original. To date, I do not believe that I have ever written what could be classed as 'mainstream' fics. I hope to never do this, and if I ever do, please alert me. I do not see the point in attempting to be unoriginal in fanfiction (work which isn't even the author's own). So anyway, enough of my ranting. Just to be warned, this is a Harry Potter/Naruto crossover. The timeline shall be evident a few hundred words in, and fans of Harry Potter (of which I am yet to find one person about my age who hasn't at least seen one film) should recognise the three main character for what they are. Otherwise, hold your baited breathes my audience. The Harry Potter world shall not play a large part in this, just be warned that at some point if I continue this, it shall become apart of the Naruto world. In a rather, harsh manner.

Enjoy ;)

Rebirth of Ninja

Chapter I: Three Souls

By The Morrigu


'Rebirthing now
I wanna live for love, wanna live for you and me
Breathe for the first time now I come alive somehow
Rebirthing now
I wanna live my life, wanna give you everything
Breathe for the first time now I come alive somehow
Right now'

- 'Rebirthing' by Skillet

The three figures rushed through the early morning darkness, every few hundred metres they would pause, sensing if there was anybody close by, before continuing. The three wore identical clothes, white padded vests, black leggings with bandages over them and a pair of black sandals on their feet. They each had a red tattoo on their arms, a swirl. The colour indicating them to be the senior of their fellows. They each had a sword on their backs, and wore gloves which covered their arms to their elbows. They each wore a mask, different from one to the next. In fact, it was these masks and the hair of each of them which allowed an observed to tell them apart. That, and if an observer looked close enough, they could tell that one of them was female.

"We nearly there?" murmured one of them, their voice definitely masculine, with untamed black hair on their head. The mask he wore was a raven, with small slits as eyes, a beak which extended out slightly, with slits at the top to allow him to breath. As well as a small opening at the tip of the mask.

"Hai." Came another masculine voice from the one who appeared to be leading the group. "Two miles." This ninja had flaming red hair, which was brown in parts. His mask was a wolf, ears sharp, red marks for whiskers and sharp eyes.

"Lets speed up then. Four months we have been gone. I would like a nice bath." Came the feminine voice from the last member, whom beneath the mask scowled at the dirt coats her figure, and getting into her brown hair, which was held back by a band. Her mask was a cats, eye holes large and round, red whiskers and large mouth with pointed teeth. The mask also appeared to be smiling.

The trio immediately sped up, moving at an incredible speeds, covering the distance in no time. They made their way to a hidden entrance for ninja on sensitive missions, an entrance which enabled them to leave and return easier, and to get to the Hokage as soon as possible. As they approached, the two Chuunin guards stood, kunai out.

"Who goes there?" They said. The three stopped, and the chuunin stepped back alarmed slightly.

"Gomen, we didn't expect anyone." Said one chuunin guard, his eyes flicking between the three, before he continued. "You are M.I.A at the moment, but the Hokage said that you are to see him if you turn up."

The three nodded in sync, before vanishing. The chuunin sighed in relief. ANBU were scary, but those three were something else.


They shushined directly outside the Hokage's office, startling office workers. They entered without knocking, to see the old Hokage filling out paperwork. His eyes looked up at their entrance, and if he hadn't been a ninja, he would have gaped.

"This is unexpected." Was all he said, as the Sandaime Hokage stood gazing at them.

"ANBU Commanded Karasu, Ookami and Neko reporting in, Hokage-sama." Stated the raven masked ANBU, identified as Karasu.

"So I see." He murmured, before shaking his head slightly. "Report."

"Kumo and Iwa delegates taken care of. They believe the other did it, stopping all chances of an alliance between the two from forming. Should have prevented the next war for another few years." Said Ookami, before stating. "Hopefully you have retired by then?"

"Don't count on it." Replied Sandaime, before nodding his head at them. "You have done well, as expected. You are on leave from missions for the next two weeks, hopefully by that time the mountains of paperwork that has collected within the four months will have been dealt with."

"Hai Hokage-sama." Stated Neko.

"There is another problem, but this refers to Karasu in particular, but I might as well tell the three of you. Please, remove your masks."

The complied, revealing Karasu's pale skin and shining emerald green eyes, Ookami's blue eyes an animalistic slit and the normal Inuzuka cheek stripes. Neko's chociolate brown eyes, and lightly tanned complexion.

"I am sorry to say, Karasu, that you clan was murdered three months ago." Said the Hokage bluntly, causing the ANBU's eyes to widen, before he closed himself off.

"By?" asked Neko for him.

"Uchiha Itachi."

A scowl flittered across Karasu's face, before it became blank.

"However, there is a part of the Uchiha Will which states that all land goes to the oldest remaining Uchiha, as well as any family remaining. Itachi left one survivor, his younger brother, Sasuke."

"No." said Karasu instantly.

"Haru!" hissed Neko reprimanding. "He is a boy of eight. You cannot leave him alone."

"I am the black sheep of the family, I doubt I will be of any assistance." Hissed Haru, glaring at the woman for using his given name when they were in ANBU gear.

"Demi is right." Murmured Ookami. "He can even move into our compound, we have more than enough room. That was, if one of us is away on a mission, there will always be someone there. We probably won't be going away together for a while, and if so, we will get a rookie to watch him. You may not want to do it, but it is the right thing to do. So we will help you."

Haru sighed, running a hand through his hair, before turning to the Hokage.

"I am not saying yes to this, but I would like to see the files on him, as well as the report of that night. Itachi wouldn't have left him alive without reason, and without doing something to him."

Sandaime nodded his head, a small smile on his face. Haru disappeared from the room.

"I will go and pack the Uchiha brat thing's, I mean Sasuke's, not Haru's, you go pack yp said brat from the Academy." Stated Ookami, a wry grin on his face.

With that, the two of them disappeared as well.

The Hokage smiled slightly, put at ease at the presence of three of his five ANBU Commanders. His eyes flicked to his desk, where he had files on the three in the process of making them K.I.A

ANBU Commander Karasu
Name: Uchiha Haru
Age: 25
Official Rank: Chuunin
Unoffical Rank: Elite Jounin

ANBU Commander Ookami
Name: Inuzuka Rai
Age: 25
Official Rank: Chuunin
Unoffical Rank: Elite Jounin

ANBU Commander Neko
Name: Saito Hidemi
Age: 25
Official Rank: Chuunin
Unoffical Rank: Elite Jounin

He put the scrolls, the only record of the three even being in ANBU, back into a safe. After all, no one but him knew the identities of the ANBU Commanders, no one but him and the five.


Flashback – nineteen years ago.

Saito Hidemi looked around the Academy grounds, where children were running around, the younger ones 'playing ninja', and the elder towards the training area, practising. She sighed slightly, shaking her head. She felt extremely old. At the tender age of six, she knew that there was something different about her, in comparison to the other children her age.

To begin with, she had had strange dreams ever since she could remember. She had brought these dreams to her parents, both medic's at the hospital. They had immediately disregarded them, and sent her on her way. She didn't dare tell them about the dreams again, for fear they would sent her away. Her parents and her didn't get on very well, or rather, they were more interested in work than her. This is another strange fact about herself, what six year old understood when their parents weren't interested in them?

Her dreams were strange, and over time, she began to remember them. Like a second life. For that is what they were. Another life. A life depicting eighteen years of memories, all of which were in the six year old mind. She wasn't to sure what precisely that did to her maturity, but to family friends she was considered to be somewhat of a 'prodigy'. Someone who could challenge the clans, and their so called 'prodigies'. Fools. Her brown eyes flicked around the grounds, feeling somewhat, immature, at the presence of the children. She felt so much older, and worldly wise. Her eyes immediately caught onto a pair of blue ones, with slits as pupils. Her breath caught in her throat, and she noticed his had as well. Hidemi approached the boy, who looked to be the same age as her. She walked up to him, until she was put a foot away, staring at him. He spoke first, his voice barely above a whisper.

"'Mione."

Hidemi felt her eyes well up in tears. She wasn't the only one. She didn't care that this was a new person, but the memories in her felt connected to the memories in him, and she nearly pounced on him, giving him a hug.

"Ron." She murmured, a small tear coming from her eye. She stepped back, staring at him. "You're an Inuzuka. Figures."

He looked quite affronted at that, the expression would have been rather normal on a teenagers face, but on a six-year olds, it looked rather strange. He frowned then, and looked around.

"If you are here, then I am here…does that mean…" he said, looking around the grounds, past all of the children, searching for anyone.

"Yes. It does." The two whirled around, meeting a pale skinned, black haired and green eyed six year old, who had a slight smirk at his lips. "Long time no see."

Hidemi immediately grabbed the two, pulling them into a hug. Then, the trio got themselves a corner of the academy grounds, near the tree, and began to talk.

"I am Saito Hidemi." She said. "My parents are medics, not ninja. Seems in this world I am also a first-generation at something too." She shot the two as scowl, as she could see that they were both part of clans.

"Inuzuka Rai." Announced Rai brightly, his blue eyes glowing with an animalistic sheen. "I am finding this incredible strange. What were the last things you could remember?"

"Uchiha Haru." Murmured Haru, a frown on his face. "Voldemort."

Hidemi nodded her head in agreement, as the presence of the other two made the memories come clearer, and she felt them aligning with her second childhood memories perfectly. In fact, she felt more whole now than she had in many years.

"He captured us." Said Rai, a frown on his face. "But then it is all black."

"He killed you. Both of you." Whispered Haru. "But I killed him…then I must have joined you. Do either of you two remember lots of white?"

"And a voice?"

"How can you possibly forget that voice." Stated Rai, shuddering slightly. "Cold, the voice I imagine a dementor would have."

"If they could talk, Rai." Replied Hidemi. "We had a choice."

"To come back." Answered Haru.

"We all must of taken it. So here we are."

"Yes, here we are." Stated Hidemi.

End of Flashback


Ever since the first day of the Academy, nineteen years ago, the three had been inseperable. Haru's clan had tried to stop him from socialising with the two, saying that it was beneath him. He naturally ignored him, though Hidemi could tell that it hurt him to do so. He had longed for a family for so many years, he finally got one, and could barely stand them due to their arrogance and reliance upon a kekkei genkai.

Due to their memories, it allowed them to go through the Academy at a quick pace, and the three graduated at the age of eight. By eleven, they were chuunin. According to any public file, that is as far as three promising ninja from the academy got. This was one of the reasons why Haru was the black sheep of the Uchiha Clan. His apparent refusal to continue up the ranks, to become a true prodigy of the Uchiha Clan. (A role which Uchiha Itachi later filled with ease). The other reason was his refusal to use the Sharingan like the rest of the clan. When it came to real fight situations, life-or-death, he would. But in terms of training, he refused to. He thought it was a tool for cheats, but this went against the family ideal, and they all but disowned him. But he was the main families second cousin, or something like that. So they couldn't do it, at least literally.

So the three of them got a house, the Inuzuka Clan being more relaxed than the Uchiha Clan, allowing Rai to move out, do whatever he wanted so long as at some point, he settled down and had an heir. So in their home, the three of them laughed at the stupidity of the Uchiha Clan, and various other ninja around Konoha. To the world, they were simple chuunin, they spent fourteen years, as simple chuunin. But anyone who really mattered knew otherwise. At thirteen, the three were inducted into ANBU, put onto different squads so as to train them in teamwork, working with less familiar people.

Within three years, they were ANBU captains, and by the time they were eighteen, the three of them were ANBU Commanders. Of course, they weren't foolish enough to believe that they had gotten the jobs by skill alone. Many ANBU had been killed in the Kyuubi attack, and the village needed the best ninja as high ranked as possible, so they were promoted. However, over the course of seven years as ANBU Commanders, they proved their positions to anyone who cared to defy them.

Thus were the careers of ANBU Commanders Karasu, Ookami and Neko. Full of secrecy and lies, the true lives of ninja.


Hidemi shoved her hair up in a tie, still damp from the extremely long bath she had had, relaxing muscles which had been tensed for long periods of time. She hadn't felt so relaxed in months, and she was extremely content. She dressed in simple chuunin clothes, reflecting the offical rank she and all her comrades at ANBU had. All ANBU were taken in at Chuunin. If any were taken in at Jounin rank, that was mainly due to special cases. By the time any reached such a rank, they were easily malleable into the ways of the ANBU. If someone left ANBU, his or her rank was immediately increased to that of Jounin. It was the way it worked.

Hidemi flicked her brown eyes to the clock, seeing it was nearly time the Academy let out. Her eyes then flicked to the snoozing Rai, who was curled up in the corner of the main room, appearing to be cuddling a blanket in his sleep. The shinobi had collected Sasuke's things and put them into the spare room, not thinking to how the student would react to such a breach of privacy. The only thing that Rai really had to say about what he collected was. 'He needs another colour apart from black.'

Hidemi threw a kunai at the wall, startling Rai into sitting up, and hitting his head against the kunai imbedded into the wall. She stifled a laugh, instead smiling at him.

"I am going to pick up the little Uchiha. Mind the house, and try not to fall asleep."

With that, she left, leaving the red haired Inuzuka to go back to sleep. She rolled her eyes, looking to the dog which was lay asleep on the porch. Hino, Rai's partner, was just as lazy as him at times. The dog lifted his head up, staring at Hidemi.

"Mind the house Hino, I doubt Rai will. Lazy buggar." She murmured, using some English phrases from her previous life.

Hino barked, before disappearing back into the house. Hidemi began the walk to the Academy, relaxing as she looked around the friendly village, free from the signs of a massacre she had seen eight years ago, when the Kyuubi had attacked. Shaking her head to clear her thoughts, she continued. She noticed several things, such as the slight quieter attitudes of the market goers, most likely still shocked at the sudden killing of a hundred or so ninja. The Uchiha Clan were well know everywhere they went, and well respected in the village. Naturally, the death of all but one, would have probably brought the village to a standstill for a time. She continued to turn corners, eventually reaching a familiar gates, and noticed that the children hadn't been let out. She sat herself on a swing, watching the doors, waiting.

Minutes later, children began to run out, screaming and jumping around. Some of the older ones, most likely believing that they were acting like 'real ninja' by not behaving childishly, were scolding the younger ones. Hidemi rolled her eyes. Let them have a childhood at least. Her prey appeared from the doors, and she zeroed in on him, and the crowd of girls that followed him. She sneered slightly, before moving off to intercept him. He saw her coming, and paused in his steps, watching her.

"Uchiha Sasuke?" she said, ignoring the way the girls stared at her like she was something else. To these students, whom were attempting to temp the Uchiha child by wearing make up and the likes, she must have looked quite plain. Not someone to warrant the attention of the Uchiha Sasuke. The dark haired boy nodded his head, frowning at her.

"Come with me. I have been tasked to escort you somewhere. Alone." She shot a glance at the girls, watching them all leave at once.

"Why should I believe you?"

'Smart boy.' Thought Hidemi, offering him a small smile, before bending down, and patting him on the head, seeing empty coal black eyes stare at her. Reminding her of a potions professor, nearly five times his age. 'He shouldn't have eyes like that.'

"The Hokage has deemed that you are to move from your current living arrangement. I volunteered to escort you, as said living arrangement involves myself. So please, come." She said walking off, and beckoning for him to follow her.

"Who are you?" he asked rudely, but following all the same.

"Saito Hidemi, chuunin of this village." Stated Hidemi, knowing that he was no doubt seeing if he recognised the name from his memory. "My comrades are Inuzuka Rai and Uchiha Haru."

She felt more than saw Sasuke pause in his steps, staring at Hidemi, his eyes wide.

"Nani?" he whispered, and Hidemi could have sworn his eyes looked like they had tears in them. No doubt he recognised her use of present tense.

"Come. Things like this cannot be spoken of in the open." She murmured, before walking ahead, knowing that he was following. They walked in silence the rest of the way, until Hidemi led them into the compound, and crouched down at Hino, who as asleep once more. However, at her approach, he woke up, saw the unfamiliar Sasuke, and began to growl. His brown fur stood on end. And eyes glowed red, and the dog almost doubled in size in a mere second. Sasuke stepped back alarmed, while Hidemi put a calming hand on the dogs head. "Stop."

The dog calmed down, and followed the pair into the home. Sasuke's eyes were flicking around the home, taking everything in. His eyes focused on Rai, who was trying to find some food in the cupboard, which hadn't expired.

"Rai." Said Hidemi, catching his attention. Rai turned around, his blue eyes on Sasuke's form instantly.

"Is paper white skin in your blood or something?" Was the first thing out of his mouth, earning him a glare from Hidemi, causing him to shrink slightly. Her expression changed, and she offered the eight year old a seat at the counter, which he took, watching Rai warily.

"Rai, this is Uchiha Sasuke." Said Hidemi, patting him on the head. "Sasuke, this is Inuzuka Rai, a fellow chuunin, and my friend for nearly twenty years."

They both nodded at each other, until Rai turned to Hidemi.

"He still isn't back yet. He's in the Hospital's Records Department. He thinks something has been overlooked." Said Rai, looking through the cupboards once more.

"Why is he treating it like a mission. Baka." Murmured Hidemi, shaking her head.

"He doesn't think the full story is there, and wants to find out what happened. I am with him to be honest. One guy, yes I understand that he was a prodigy and everything, but a whole clan? Not happening." Replied Rai, this caught Sasuke's attention, as the child scowled, and anger flitted across his face.

"I will kill him." He murmured.

Hidemi and Rai paused, staring at Sasuke.

"What?" asked Hidemi, leaning across the counter to him, looking at his warily.

"I will kill him, Itachi."

Rai shared a worried glance with Hidemi, and the two of them sat on the chairs across from him, watching him with concerned expressions.

"Why?" asked Hidemi. "When others could do it? What makes you think that you should fight him? He graduated the Academy by your age."

Sasuke scowled, his face darkening immensely.

"He killed everyone. He should be killed for what he did." Hissed Sasuke, a voice whispering in his ear, 'hate me.'

"Revenge is not the path for anyone. Especially not an emotionally scarred eight year old." Came a voice, and Sasuke whirled around on his stool, seeing a person in the doorway to the room, carrying a series of files in his hands, and watching Sasuke with a calculating expression. Sasuke stared at him, remembering what the woman, Hidemi, had said earler. 'My comrades are Inuzuka Rai and Uchiha Haru.' This was an Uchiha. A survivor like him. He could see it from the looks of the man, that he definitely had Uchiha blood in him, pale skin and dark hair like that were only found in the Uchiha and Hyuuga. The lack of white eyes proved him to be part of the former than the latter. He stepped into the room, shaking his head slightly at him, looking slightly disappointed.

"I doubt you have ever actually heard of me. I have seen you a few times. I remember when you were three, and you fell into the lake. Amusing to watch, really." Said Haru dryly, finding some tea in one of the cupboards, obviously overlooked by Rai in his search.

"Why are you not dead like the others?" Three months ago, he wouldn't have been able to say that. But he had accepted it now. All that remained was a hollow shell of sorts. All he wanted was revenge, and then, he would mourn.

"We weren't in the village." Said Haru simply. "In fact, we only got back this morning."

Sasuke frowned, eyeing the Chuunin uniform that the three of them wore. Something wasn't right. Chuunin never went out on missions that long. Never. Hidemi had snatched one of the files off of Haru, and was flicking through it, her eyes zooming over the paper quicker than Sasuke could follow.

"Says here that you are top of the class." Murmured Hidemi, a small smirk on her face. "Sounds like me."

"Don't kid yourself." Replied Rai, as he leaned back in his stool, balancing it on two legs, and still not falling off. "You know you could never match me in strategies, or Haru-kun­ in taijutsu."

The two began to bicker, and Sasuke felt decisively uncomfortable in their presence, like he wasn't meant to be there. Haru was watching him, and when Sasuke caught his eyes, he nodded his head towards the door, and the two left the other two behind to argue.

"Do they always do that?" asked Sasuke quietly, watching as the elder Uchiha led him out onto the back walkway, and sat down, indicating for him to sit next to him. Haru drank his tea, staring at the sky as he did so.

"Yes. You get used to it after a while." His green eyes flicked to Sasuke, and he spoke softly. "Demi made a good point, you are top of the class. Most likely to be rookie of the year, according to the reports I have been reading about you since I have gotten back."

Sasuke then saw the lines on the ninja's face. Lines of tiredness. He couldn't guess how long he hadn't slept for, and realised that he had forsaken such an activity, to read up on him. To read his school reports, and other such things about him. Things his family had never bothered with, to busy with Itachi.

"From this, I also believe that you have many questions to ask me. So you may begin. I will answer truthfully, as I believe you have a right to know everything. I should be able to see just how much the report shows of you, ne?"

Sasuke nodded his head, looking towards the elder Uchiha, and frowned slightly.

"Chuunin do not go away for extended missions like that."

"No. They don't." replied Haru simply.

"The three of you are chuunin though."

"We are." Replied Haru.

Sasuke frowned, that didn't make sense though. He was about to open his mouth to voice this, but he paused in mid breath, staring at Haru. His eyes suddenly reached a realisation, and he whispered it.

"ANBU."

"That would be correct."

His thoughts zoomed back, over all of the conversations he had had in the past half an hour, going over everything he had been told by Hidemi. She mentioned that she was involved in the living arrangement. She lived in the house, with the Inuzuka, and Haru.

"Am I to live here?" his heart was thumping quicker, as he could see a way to get what he wanted. To get his revenge. It all depended on the answer to the question he had just asked. Haru looked at him, frowning. Sasuke almost held his breath, hoping that the other ninja could not hear his heart beating.

"Yes."

Three ANBU. He would be living with three ANBU. Itachi was an ANBU, but he couldn't stand up to the three of them. If he got them to train him, he could catch up. He could get his revenge. He could win the clan back their honour. Sasuke felt that he could see the light at the end of the tunnel. Haru turned to him fully, frowning slightly.

"You think that by living here, you will be receiving endless training, so as to help you to complete a goal none of us believe in?" said Haru in a quiet voice, stopping Sasuke's thoughts in their tracks.

"You should be helping me. Gain some honour for the clan. Itachi killed them. We must kill him." Stated Sasuke, as thought that answered all of the questions.

"The clan didn't have much honour to begin with. Don't go defending them on things that you do not understand. Itachi should never have killed them, but you will find that many of your brothers generation have had that thought once or twice, and come to me with their thoughts."

Sasuke stared at him.

"I am considered to be the rebel Uchiha. My refusal to use the Sharingan at my disposal." His eyes turned red, with three tomoe in each eye, then they turned back to the green. "My apparent refusal to increase my rank from a mere Chuunin, which I gained at the age of eleven. ANBU are not supposed to tell anyone of their position. Sometimes, you are allowed to tell one person, but aside from that, no one else. The whole Uchiha Clan knew of Itachi's position of an ANBU Captain, by the age of thirteen."

Sasuke silently compared the two. His heart grew cold, as he realised that his brother was still that much better than him.

"But your brother is a fool."

Sasuke stared at Haru in shock at this. He had never heard anyone say that about the supposed Uchiha Prodigy.

"He joined ANBU at 12, and due to the death of the ANBU Lieutenant of that team, he was promoted. The one of the squad members had died, and the other was not as talented as the twelve year old. However, to my knowledge, the ANBU Captain in charge of that team is still alive and breathing." 'And reading porn books of all things.'

Sasuke almost gaped at him, as he stood up as though he hadn't done anything.

"You shouldn't believe all that you hear, Sasuke. It isn't good for ones health." His eyes met Sasuke's, and the eight year old felt as though they were staring right at him, seeing him through whatever barrier he put up. He felt uncomfortable, as though stripped naked under such a gaze. "I understand what happened to you that night. The medics were vague in their answers, but I managed to piece together what has happened rather well. From now, until I deem otherwise as you guardian as of," He looked to the sun. "Two hours and three minutes ago. You are forbidden from training in any of the ninja arts."

This time Sasuke did gape at him, and stood up, anger coursing through his veins.

"You cannot do that."

"I can, and I will." Hissed Haru, his voice cold. "Ninja's are there to serve the village, not their own means. You become a ninja because you wish to be part of something bigger, not because you wish to complete your own vendetta. Until you have gotten over this, and you will have help in this area, you are forbidden from practising from becoming a ninja." He placed a hand on the child's shoulder. "As you thought earlier, you are in a house with three ANBU, your training shall dramatically improve. Depending on how long it takes for you to snap out of this idea, depends on how long it takes for us to make up the work you will be missing at the Academy. So if I were you, I would start thinking about why you want to become an ninja. Remember, and eye for an eye is not the way to go."

Taking that as a dismissal, Sasuke stormed into the house, leaving Haru with a small smile on his face.

"Did you have to be so harsh?" asked Rai, as he came out of the shadows.

"Yes."

The red head sighed, as Hino jumped up, and sat on Rai's head, his form now small enough to fit on it comfortably.

"He reminds me of myself." Stated Haru simply, causing Rai's mouth to form a smirk.

"What, blowing up at everyone possible? I hate to think what he will be like as a teenager." Said Rai, causing Haru to chuckle slightly. "You should get to sleep. You had watch for the past few nights, I can't remember when you last had sleep. You look like crap."

"Nice sentiments." Replied Haru, suddenly feeling how tired he should, his body protesting against any movement he made. He slowly made his way down the corridor, Sasuke who was in the kitchen, with Hidemi trying to talk to him. He walked straight into his room, slid the door shut and fell onto is bed. He was asleep before he landed on the bed.


This is probably the longest opening I have ever done for a story. This is a taster. If you like it, tell me. I need to know these things. If you like it, it shall be continued.

The idea for this hit me as I was walking me dog. If I am honest with myself, all of my ideas have hit my while I have been walking my dog. Dog walking cure for Writers Block + how to procrastinate and not do any Biology Revision. (Fear for me people: Biology AS Exam Wed Morning, Sociology that afternoon. Chemistry and Psychology Thurs Morning – the next day. That is this week by the way)
