DISCLAIMER" I DONT OWN ANYTHING BUT THE OC CHARACTERS
Rain. It would always rain when they met. He hated the rain so much. His father like teacher laughed when he mentioned it. Only a few people knew his secret though. You see this boy and his frends were members of a secret group. They called themselves the red rain. The blonde boy found it fitting of course. Suddenly a raven haired boy popped up beside him.
"Naruto please expalin why you left me back at the gates." he said calmly. Naruto smiled his foxy grin.
"Your slow teme." naruto laughed. The boy growled softly as he sat down on a rock.
"You know that Iruka sensei and the other two people you told are going to want to know why metting." he said.
"Sasuke please they know we can't tell." Naruto said smirking.
"Do you two ever not fight?" asked a melodic female voice.
"Rin!" Naruto called out as a tall girl dressed in all black walked forward. Her uniform was skin tight and she had a skirt that went to her thighs with black skin tight legins under it. She wore black boots that met the bottom of the leggins under her knees. On her back was a medium size katana that could increase in size at the push of a button. And on her side a small hand gun.
"Naruto calm down I brought Harry with me." she said as a bispectcaledboy with unruley raven balck hair annd emeraled eyes walked forward.
"Long time no see." Harry grinned. His British accent made Naruto burst into laughter.
"Don't mind him he's on drugs today." Sasuke stated. Both Rin and Harry nodded.
"So what's wrong why we are meeting on the wetest day of the year?" Naruto asked.
"We have a slight assignment that is very funny at the unlikeliest veiw." Rin giggled as Harry groaned.
"I have to go to school and as you know i'm being hunted by an evil dark lord so my school want's to hire some people but we need your Hokages permission to send four ninja's to the school and I was thinking why not Naruto and his friends and family." Harry explained. "Sounds good." Naruto said happily.
"But what if the Hokage say's no?" Sasuke asked.
"Way to be a bummer teme!" Naruto whined.
"Easy i came up with a back up plan to bring in red rain units alpha and beta." Harry mused.
"But alpha is us and beta's been on active duty in Iraq since September of last year?" Naruto said.
"Exactly so you and sasuke have no reason to worry. Plus this envolves training so don't worry." Harry added looking at Sasuke.
"I think this will be fun seeing as I get to play the whole role as a witch instead of just being called a magid." Rin laughed.
"You alway's seem to thank ahead Rin-Chan!" Naruto grinned. Rin smiled back before retrieving an envolope from her messenger bag.
"Here give this to your hokage for me. It's instructions on the mission." Rin told them handing the beige letter to sasuke.
"Hai, arigatou Rin-Chan." Sasuke said as he took the note from her.
"This wills conclode the meeting. Sorry we had to meet in the rain naruto." Harry apologized before he and Rae dissapered.
"I hate the rain." Naruto growled as he and Sasuke walked home. "Not my fault." Sasuke said as they reached the gates. Naruto glanced around as he scoped out the people.
"I'm off to find Iruka sensei so JA nai Sasuke-teme." Naruto said before he began his march.
"Oh no you don't we have to deliver this first." he snapped as he drug the orange ninja to the hokage tower. Naruto sighed at least knew Iruka might be there. Once they arrived at the tower both boys shook themselves of the rain.
"Once again I hate the rain with great disdane." Naruto growled. Sasuke sighed heavily as he opened the Hokages door.
"Lady Hokage. I have a mission request from England." he announced. Tsunade glanced up suprised.
"Really how did it come into your possesion?" she asked.
"Boy my age brought it to the village and requested I bring it." sasuke said. Naruto sat quiet searching for Iruka. Tsunade smiled as she noticed the fox's agitativeness.
"He's in the archives room if you want to go see him." she said. Naruto smiled as he said a hasty goodbye to the room. The corridors flashed by him as he dashed past the various rooms to his destination. Finally the room in question stood before him. Many times he had broken into the room and once inside you could get ahold of anything only people who were trusted the most were allowed in. Naruto of course was not one of them. but like all naruto ever did he shrugged and pranced in. Iruka was sitting at the table with his head resting on his chin reading through a scroll with unknown lettering.
"Sensei?" Naruto whispered as he took a seat on iruka's right. Iruka glanced up and smiled at the boy.
"Ohayo Naruto-kun what's going on?" he asked. He grinned at the simple statement. No one treated him like a person except his few friends and teachers.
"Baa-Chan Tsunade told me you were here." Naruto said happily. Iruka smiled as he stood up and rewrapped the scroll.
"Was your meeting productive? it was raining after all." Iruka laughed. Naruto nodded as he watched his teacher place the scoll back in its rightful spot.
"What were your reading sensie?" Naruto asked. Only a select few scrolls were written in a language he knew.
"Nothing of importance just some records on the kyubbi attack." he explained. Naruto nodded he was the kyubbi container after all. The fox's chakra flowed through him boosting his own power. It also increased his five senses.
"Oh, so find anything useful?" Naruto asked. Iruka had been trying hard lately to find away to help naruto control the foxes chakra better if any at all.
"not really meditating is the only way i see of doing it right now." iruka said.
"well so far we have found out i can't use kage bunshin when in the fox form and i can't control it past four tells." naruto picked off with his fingers.
"and you can menditate and control your chakra better." iruka named the last one. naruto nodded sharply. both sat quiet for a moment before naruto sighed.
"i might be leaving soon." naruto said.
"where?" iruka asked. he was use to naruto's random missions.
"england, for about a year." naruto whispered. iruka nodded as he scratched his scar.
"so this is what you're meeting was about." iruka said. naruto nodded as he rested his head on his sensei's left arm. iruka absentmindedly stroked the boy's hair. "do you want ramen tonight?" he asked. naruto nodded deep in thought.
"i'm scared sensie." naruto whispered.
"don't be i'm here." iruka said solemnly. suddenly the doors burst smiled as she grabbed iruka and naruto and dragged them to the hogake's office.
"umino iruka and uzumaki naruto you two are to accompony hatake kakashi and uchiha sasuke to london, england tomorrow this is an s ranked mission." tsunade said. both men nodded as iruka took the information sheet and left.
"amazing so it worked." naruto muttered.
"what worked?" iruka asked puzzled.
"you can thank me later fox. i had to pull several strings before tsunade even let kakashi or us go." sasuke said as he met up with them.
"you didn't tell her did you?" naruto asked.
"no luckily kakashi walked in and helped out." sasuke explained.
"so we got lucky being able to bring the people we love most along." naruto smiled.
"i wouldn't say that." a calm cool voice said behind them.
"kakashi i'm tweanty four stop scaring me!" iruka barked out. kakashi apoligized with a smile.
"gomen iruka-chan." he said calmly.
"so alpha team would have still gone." naruto said. sasuke nodded as he sat down.
"but like i said i helped out." he smirked. naruto smiled at least now he wouldn't have to go to england for a year by himself.
"So do we need to contact Rin or what?" naruto asked. "you can do that can't you?" sasuke asked. naruto growled as he pulled back his right sleeve to expose a small watch.
"Rin, can you hear me?" he asked. static met his ears followed by a low "what?"
"we leave tomorrow." naruto continued. suddenly life burst through his watch.
"oh, my god tomorrows today yikes. crap what do i do what do i do!" she yelped.
"Rin calm down your in America your a day behind me." naruto said calmly.
"oh, right...ha ha my bad." she said with laughter in her voice.
"your crazy." sasuke said. all eyes turned to the raven haired uchiha.
"Did you just call me crazy?" Rin asked in a synichal voice.
"yeah what you gonna do about it?" sasuke asked.
"I take offense to it...im not crazy...im phycotic." Rin boasted proudly. naruto smiled at the proud look he pictured the girl in.
"besides," she added, "your just a sad and lonely little emo kid." once again eyes fell on the uchiha.
"i will kill you when we meet again." he snarled.
"looking forward to it." she laughed. once the conversation had ended they headed off to iruka's apartment. naruto bounced around jovilant of the outcome of tomorrow's mission.
"Your going to love harry and Rin they are so awsome!" naruto yelled happily. sasuke sighed taking a seat on the table.
"he's learned his english from both harry and rae so his new launguage has a variaty of vocabulary." he explained. kakashi smiled at the thought of a smart sounding naruto.
"i'll have you know that i have a very excellent vocab." naruto snapped. sasuke rolled his eye's in disgust. only iruka and kakashi noticed the action as naruto continued his ramblings. sasuke glanced outside as a sudden chill ran up his spine.
"naruto." came his rough voice.
"yeah teme." naruto answered.
"do you feel that?" sasuke asked. naruto nodded as he sniffed the air.
"the rain and lack of sun brought them." naruto growled as the stinch of fifty molded rotten corpes filled his lungs.
"how far are they?" sasuke continued.
"just hit the border." naruto reported. sasuke nodded as he removed his kunie
. "do you want to go or should i seeing as you hate the smell and rain." sasuke asked.
"theres fifty can you take them?" naruto asked. sasuke nodded as he allowed the curse mark to take partial control.
"with this i can whip the kyubbis ass." he smirked. naruto growled. he had found that out the time sasuke left to join orochimaru after the destruction of konaha.
"be careful." naruto warned. with that sasuke bounded out the window.
"um, naruto whats going on?" kakashi asked bored.
"shadows. their mainly just pranksters but if you leave them in one spot they can couse mahyem and if they know members of the red rain are nearby they can be deadly." naruto explained.
"so they could kill you or sasuke." iruka said. naruto nodded as he withdrew his own kunie. carefully he retreated from the window.
"please it's as if they don't even know i'm the fox." naruto snarled. he yawned as a black shadow bounded through the window and materialized in front of them.
"die!" it chanted in a dead cold hoarse voice.
"is that a shadow?" iruka asked confused. naruto nodded as he allowed the fox senses more control. the black image raced forward as naruto allowed more chakra to seep out.
"um, naruto we have more company." kakashi said as he tried to slash at the figures. naruto glanced at the shadows comming through the window and various cracks in the house.
"what is that teme doing?" naruto asked as he flexed his claws. a sudden slash proved that naruto had hit his target
"naruto please explain to us how we defeat these things." iruka said.
"use these." naruto said throwing two small devices at the men. both kakashi and iruka glanced down and then looked at naruto.
"um, how do we use these?" iruka asked. naruto smiled as he held out his own device. "capture!" naruto shouted as he pointed the device at the figures closer to him. a bright flash erupted around them as the figures dissaperead. various flashes lit the room as both kakashi and iruka captured their own shadows.
"see. i told you it was easy." naruto laughed. the room had indeed felt lighter as the last of the shadows were capured. suddenly a large figure jumped in through the window.
"gomen some got away." sasuke smirked. naruto growled softly as he sat down. Iruka placed a steady hand on his shoulder as he listened to kakashi explain their fight. the next day the four ninja's left for england. naruto grew bored of the mundane sceanery outside as he patiantly sat still fingering his watch.
"calm down we're almost there." kakashi said calmly. even sasuke was beginning to feel abit jumpy. naruto stayed close to iruka as the train came to a halt. once on the platform naruto bounded for a bench and sat down.
"you ok sunshine?" iruka asked.
"i don't like trains." naruto yelped.
"you could have transported." a smart voice said behind them.
"Rin!" naruto smiled. Rin shook her head and her right index finger.
"nope. Don't mention nothing here." she smiled.
"i'm also here with harry and his friends to get you four to headqaurters safely." naruto cocked his head as he followed the girl down a stray alley.
"Where excactly is headquarters?" sasuke asked.
"just up the road." rin whispered. up the road to naruto meant more walking on his wobbly legs.
"i still haven't forgotten your sad little emo quirk." sasuke growled.
"We can fight at headquarters." Rin said. they met up with harry and two others as they headed farther into england
"so how was your trip?" harry asked curiously.
"i think transporting is way better." naruto said in an odd manner. harry smiled as he slipped some pills into the blondes hand. naruto looked down confused as he eyed the three pills. harry pressed his finger to his lips indicating the boy to remain silent and follow what he does. Together the two popped the pills into their mouths. Iruka noticed the action a moment to late as he tried to grab the two teens.
"don't bother they test pills all the time it's completely normal." rin explained from the front of the line. Kakashi and sasuke mearly sighed with frustration as the hyper blonde suddenly smiled.
"give me another one." naruto said happily.
"No way three's already more than enough. take anymore and you'll be seeing things." harry said. both boys' argued as the girls watched annoyed.
"hermione isn't it the next left up here?" rin asked curiously.
"yes then i'll mutter the password." she whispered. ginny; who was more concerened about her boyfriend looked up.
"are you sure they've done this before?" she asked. sasuke sighed as he stopped walking.
"i'll show you." he said bored. carefully he took both harry and naruto into his hands and began to throw them down. naruto quickly rolled into a defensive ball and threw a carefully aimed kunie at his friend's foot. harry rolled close to ginny and sat up.
"what the hell?" he said monotonely.
"You see if they were drugged completely then their reflexes would suck." sasuke said in a bored voice. This earned an agreed expression from Rin. Iruka helped the blonde to his feet as they aproched the building.
"Ok, all in." rin said as they filed into the large home. kakashi and iruka stared amazed.
"What is this?" kakashi asked.
"Its called magic." naruto said bored as sasuke tried to catch Rins attention. harry lead them into a small room where twealve people were sitting.
"i brought the ninjas." harry announced. all remained quiet as introductions took place.
"So you are the famouse red dead." sirius said as he talked with sasuke and naruto.
"yep, uzumaki naruto at your service." naruto cried out. iruka placed a calming hand on the blondes shoulder.
"and we are the ninja's gardians." kakashi said calmly.
"nice to meet you. harry and rin have explained your reason for comming to our aid." remus bowed.
"the pleasure is ours." sasuke said respectively. Naruto rolled his eye's as Rin smaked him upside the head.
"behave before i send you home." she snapped.
"i have a quick question." ginny said as hermione placed her hand down.
"yes." iruka said gently.
"what role will you be playing whilst at hogwarts?" she asked.
"we will be both gaurding and teaching." kakashi answered.
"and we will be station as both gaurds and students." rin provided as she indicated both sasuke and naruto.
"so mr. umino and mr. hatake will be the teachers and gaurds as well." magonagall asked. both adult ninja nodded.
"that settles the potions and arithmacy classes." sirius smirked. harry sighed as he placed his head down on his arms. naruto sat beside him as both began to drool.
"where did you get those pills?" naruto asked.
"medical office; why?" harry asked.
"Because i feel like crap right now." naruto glanced over to Rin as she nodded slightly.
"harry why don't you and naruto go to bed for a slight nap." she suggested. both teens nodded as they left upstairs.
"sasuke we can handle this can't we?" rin asked calmly. sasuke nodded as ginny took the two drinks given to her.
"mr. umino and mr. kakashi if you could assist me with a few things the misson should be a success." rin said smoothly.
"but i thought that looking after harry was all that the mission insisted?" kakashi said. sirius nodded his point.
"i belive that miss. rin has other issues that need discussing." remus said.
"death eaters won't be the only thing after harry this year. the shadows which have been after the red rain for years will try to barge in thinking harry will be unprotected." rin explained. The room nodded in somewhat under standment.
"this being said even miss. ginny and harry's other friends will be in danger." rin continued.
"plus we and two other members of our group will be taking on normal red rain missions." sasuke stated. iruka sighed as he stood up.
"i belive i would like to the rooms kakashi and i will be staying in." he said. as hermione lead them upstairs naruto walked from the bathroom.
"you okay?" hermione asked.
"harry has it worst. best check on him." naruto said as he leaned on his father like sensies shoulder. iruka scratched the young blondes head as they continued on, this time being lead by naruto.
"while here we have been asked to survey the area and make sure that no enemies have been through." naruto explained.
"your warm sunshine." iruka said as he placed a hand on the boy's forehead. naruto nodded.
"it'll pass." he said as sasuke walked in his room. "so we share with harry and ron." sasuke asked.
"yep." naruto smiled. across the room iruka and kakashi entered their own room.
"do you think being on this mission henders them at all?" iruka asked. kakashi glanced up confused.
"what do you mean?" he asked.
"well the boy's have all been on solo missions for their little organzation but this is the first we've ever been on." iruka began.
"so take in the experiance." kakashi smiled. Iruka nodded; suddenly rins voice was heard outside the door.
"ryuxes has returned he's downstairs!" she cried. both ginny and harry grabbed their wands as sasuke and naruto followed rin. downstairs a tall hooded figure emerged from the shadows.
"my fellow teammates an honor to see you." he smiled as he lowered his hood. his golden slit like eyes peirced through the group. he had silver hair that flowed in long locks around his neck and into his eyes. "ryuxes how did you find us?" harry asked. ryuxes laughed as he walked forward.
"why the shadows of course." he mused. sasuke snarled at the teen before them.
"then like the shadows we'll kill you." he growled. ryuxes laughed as the four friends launched themselves at him weapons drawn. with ease he withdrew his own sowrd slashing it through the air causuing a whirlwind in the ninja's directions. by this time the whole house had arrived at the foot of the stairs to witness the fight.
"stop this ryuxes i know you don't really mean this." rin pleaded. naruto stood beside her kunie drawn for the impact of his sowrd.
"it pains me to know that you won't join me my love." ryuxes said as he raised his sowrd.
"i stopped being your love after you left us for the shadows." rin snapped.
"Come now Rin you remember that special bond we have." ryuxes smiled.
"she said she don't love you no more." naruto growled.
"and like any man your an idiot for not taking others into consideratin." ginny snapped. harry nodded as he and ginny stood at the stairs to protect the others.
"You fought against the shadows once ry, why not now?" sasuke asked.
"for the power. power that you seek sasuke, power that even the strongest hokage or any other leader dreams of." ryuxes said. Naruto tightened his grip as his demon form began to take over.
"I'll find the ultimate power on my own thanks." Sasuke said as he threw shurikan at the teen. Naruto raced forward as he and sasuke fought.
"Harry you and ginny get the others to safety!" rin ordered. Harry and Ginny both nodded as they ran to cover the others. Naruto quickly changed into his demon form as sasuke followed suite.
"Foolish messengers you think you can honestly defeat me?"" he laughed.
"Yeah we're pretty sure." Rin growled. Naruto and sasuke nodded as they stood ready for the fight.
"Ice crystal!" rin yelled as she raised her hands to the enemy. Naruto did a series of cuts and jabs as his demonic form took shape. Sasuke smiled as he spread his wings and took flight sending fire balls at the enemy. Naruto tightened his grip on his kunie. Rin side-glanced him as he tried to move forward.
"no we mustn't continue this fight here." she stated.
"And why not Rinny-Chan?" Ryuxes asked sweetly.
"because you don't deserve it." she said simply. sasuke sighed as he released his curse mark watching the others calm down as well. all eyes stared at the intruder.
"fine then I shall leave for now." he mused. In a black cloud he left. They waited a few moments before Rin fell to her knees. The room waved around as all four teens fell to the floor.
"What's wrong why do I feel so weak?" Sasuke growled. Harry was about to answer when a piece of paper fell at his hand.
"A note." He said.
"Read it." Rin cringed as she sat up grasping her head.
"My old friends I have taken a bit of your powers for your reluctance to join me. Good luck fighting. Ryuxes." Harry read.
"This is great." Naruto barked out as Sasuke nodded in agreement.
"Sirius I think we should up the protection of this house." Harry stated. sirius nodded as he and remus began placing up more charms.
"i'll go help them with the protection wards." Rin said as she walked after them.
"I'll fix some dinner." molly reassured herself. Ginny and the others sighed.
"Harry what's going to happen this year?" hermione asked.
"yeah, we can't help you with this problem." ron put in.
"that's just it you can't help me." Harry said. naruto growled softly.
"stay out of it." sasuke warned. "but were your friends mate." Fred yelped.
"I know and I still need your help with Voldemort. but when it comes to the shadows and Ryuxes you can't get involved." Harry explained. all the wizards looked down crest fallen at the fact that they couldn't help their friend.
"you shouldn't have been so hard on them." naruto said as the teens left.
"it couldn't be helped." Harry declared. "whatever." naruto spat.
"Don't you dare say that to me." Harry growled as he raised the blonde by his shirt collar. sasuke watched ready to step in as both kakashi and Iruka ran forward.
"Cool it four eyes." naruto said as his eyes turned red. Harry paused for a moment before dropping the boy.
"come get me when dinners ready." Harry muttered. naruto rubbed his neck as the dark haired teen walked away.
"what's his problem?" Iruka asked as he helped naruto up. "give him time." kakashi said. sasuke stood up and walked over to the door.
"We might as well contact mission control and tell them whats happening." He stated.
"Good idea." Rin nodded as she began hooking up her laptop. Hermione walked toward Harry and placed an arm on his shoulder.
"How long have you been doing this Harry?" Sirius asked. "About ten years." He answered. Iruka looked at Naruto who nodded.
"Naruto why did you guy's not tell us?" Iruka asked. "Because we were sworn to secrecy." Rin said as she made contact with Dexter.
"Hey what's up?" He asked.
"Ryuxes has returned." Naruto said as he took a seat beside Rin.
"That's bad. We have people searching the middle east right now and found nothing." Dex said calmly.
"Have there been anymore strange appearances?" Naruto asked.
"Just the normal demons and monsters around here." He answered. Rin thanked him before signing off and turned to the two boy's
"Sirius I think we should study this situation more." Remus stated. Sirius nodded as he and Remus began walking to the library upstairs.
"I'll go help them." Rin said as she walked after them.
"I'm off to help Rin." he said as he dissaperead. Naruto nodded as he returned his gaze back to the adults.
