Iruka's / Harry's Mind

Upon entering the boy's mind Sarutobi found himself in a stone corridor lit by floating candle's. He noted that there appeared to be no roof only sky. Lining the corridor were doors. All sorts and shapes. The one closest to Sarutobi seemed to call to him. It was a plain ordinary door, painted white with a gold plated number four in the middle and a brass mail slot. He opened the door and stepped inside. There was a flash of light and he found himself standing on a darkened street. Looking around he saw identical houses all with neatly trimmed lawns. A cat with square markings around its eyes sat by the driveway of one. The cat turned its head and looked directly at Sarutobi. He took a step back, and then he heard footsteps approaching him from behind. Turning he noted that the cat was looking at a long bearded man with twinkling blue eyes. He held something silver in his hand and clicked it. The street lamps went out. The cat turned into a stern faced woman and spoke, "Albus, where's Harry?"

"Don't worry Minavera. I sent Hagrid to pick him up."

"You can't be serious!"

Whatever Albus's reply might have been was cut off by a deafening roar. A black motorcycle with a side care attached came down from the sky and a huge giant of a man with wild bushy hair got off. And reaching into the side car lifted a basket.

"Here ya go Professor! I got Harry like you said I should!" boomed the giant.

"Thank-you Hagrid!" Beamed Albus, "Now how is it you came into possession of Sirius's bike?"

"Well Professor Dumbledore sir, we met when I was picking up Harry. He said to use his bike to get Harry to ya."

"Well I'll see you both later then. Have a good evening Minavera, Hagrid!"

The two left leaving Dumbledore with the basket. Sarutobi watched Albus Dumbledore place the basket in front of the door that looked exactly like the door Sarutobi had entered earlier, the twinkling eyed old man rummaged around in his robe a few seconds then pulled out a letter and laid it in the basket, he then clicked the lighter and disappeared as the street lamps lite up. Sarutobi curious went to look in the basket. He found a sleeping boy with a scar shaped like a lighting bolt on his forehead there. He frowned and found himself back in the corridor.

The next door was plain and ordinary, except for the lock on it. Surprisingly it wasn't locked and this time when he entered he found himself in a cupboard with a small boy who looked like he was three. The scar identified the boy as the babe Sarutobi had seen earlier. "BOY!" roared a voice, " GET OUT HERE AND MAKE OUR BREAKFAST!" the child, Harry if he recalled correctly, quickly left the cupboard Sarutobi fallowing, he watched in shock and dismay as the boy received a sharp buffet and was made to stand on a stool, and cook. Time seemed to speed up and he watched the child be abused day after day, a;ways cooking or weeding or cutting the grass with scissors, being called freak and being beaten for things the boy couldn't help. He gave a sudden start when he saw the boy communicate with a snake at the zoo before the glass suddenly vanished and reappeared trapping the fat boy Dudley inside. Then once again he was back in the corridor.

The next door was old and worn and when he entered he found himself outside a shack in the middle of a stormy lake. He watched as Hagrid came and gave the boy a letter, time sped up again and he watched the boy visit Diagon Alley and Gringotts, platform 9 3/4's, the train ride where he met Hermione and Ron, the sorting, the mirror, the attack of the unicorn, quiditch, and finally the saving of the stone and destruction of Professor Quirrel.

The next door was worn, but had a warm and inviting air about. Later revealing itself to be the door to the burrow, and showing Harry's second year of school.

The next was the shrieking shack door, then the gate gate to the quidditch world cup, the room of requirement's door was after that, fallowed by the door to the ministry of magic, then it was grimwald place and finally the very last door was the gate to Hogwarts, it was the final battle. Sarutobi watched in shock as Harry's friends turned on him and hexed him.

At the end of the corridor Sarutobi entered a giant forest where he saw Iruka standing and waiting. I was not quiet the Iruka he knew, but a combination of the two boys.

Iruka spoke, "That was my life as Harry Potter. Now here is where my memories as Iruka are. Would you mind if we left now?"

"Of course lead the way."

Finding himself back in his own body, Sarutobi looked across at Iruka and smiled. "That was quiet the exciting life you lead huh? Iruka I would like very much for you to just live your life how you want to. And I think I would like to have tea with you once a week to see how you like this life. I'll try my best to be straight forward with you, as I can safely say I think you've had enough of being manipulated. What do you think?"

"I would be honored Sarutobi-sama."

* And that is it for this chapter. Next chapter we will met Naruto, and Mizuki. Oh and in regards to the whole betrayal by his friends things, I really do like those characters, its just that for my story I wanted Harry/Iruka to not have any ties to his old world. That way I think at least he really could live again in a second life, without the burden of worrying about everyone he used to know. Plus I just couldn't kill them all off. Poor Harry-chan would be depressed then, and then when his parents died fighting Kyuubi he might of just decided to join them. I couldn't have that. Well Ja ne!
