"So, what did you think of him?" Naruto asked, as the two of them ran through the trees. Sasuke shrugged.

"Good instincts, and he is smart and determined," He said.

"Ah, the will of fire burns brightly in him?" Naruto asked, making Sasuke wince. Naruto began laughing.

"Don't say something like that again, idiot," Sasuke said, rolling his eyes. Naruto smirked.

Dear Snuffles,

Something really weird happened today that I think you need to know about. Two weird blokes showed up at dinner and asked Dumbledore about me. It was strange though, I don't think they had any idea about me being Harry Potter, the boy-with-the-annoying-name, because they didn't even know if I was alive. Instead, they spouted off some weird story about a guy named A-hoy or something like that, who hypnotized Charlus and Dorea Potter into believing that he was their son, James Potter, my dad!

Apparently, A-hoy is the Uncle of one of the guys, Saskay or something, and h did look similar to me. Saskay had the same messy black hair as me, though he grew it out a bit. Anyway, do you know anything about this? They said that my dad had gone to some kind of Academy, where he graduated from when he was 9 and that he was really good at mind magic stuff. Then he left because of his bad eyesight, apparently his family didn't want him anymore. Is this at all true?

Anyway, other than that, my return to Hogwarts is pretty normal, though there's also this ugly pink woman...

"And with that, I give you your new Hokage! Uzumaki Naruto!"

Dear Harry,

Your dad had his moments, but an agent from another country? Another family? I find it hard to believe, and I knew your dad the best. Besides, I'm not so sure that you should even be slightly interested in learning about that family even if it is true. After all, what kind of family kicks out a kid for having bad eyesight? I suppose, though, that if you are still interested, you could send an owl.

As for Umbridge...

"I'd recommend setting up patrols here, here, and here," Shikamaru said, gesturing to the map in front of them. Naruto sighed to himself. How could negotiations with Kiri have gone so wrong?

Sasuke looked up from his bowl of Miso soup to see a white owl sitting on his windowsill. Raising an eyebrow, Sasuke stood up and walked over to the bird, which then stuck it's leg out. A letter was tied to it. Of course, there was nothing strange about a messenger bird, but Sasuke had never seen an owl one. They were usually hawks. Gently untying the letter in order to not hurt the beautiful bird, he swiftly pulled out his kunai and opened the letter, making sure to point the opening away from him in case of traps.

When nothing happened, then Sasuke looked inside the envelope and pulled the letter out. Unfolding the rather thick parchment, Sasuke blinked at the English and began to read.

Dear Saskay (Sorry, I don't know how to spell your name),

Why do you guys want me back if the family kicked my dad out, anyway? And do you have anything that you can give me to prove what you said?

Sincerely,

Harry Potter

Sasuke shook his head, but pulled out a small blank scroll (and a dictionary. Honestly, if he was at home, he might as well use better vocabulary), turned it sideways, and began to write.

Dear Harry,

Many years ago, the Uchiha clan was a proud family. The source of our pride was a special ability of ours, located in our eyes called the Sharingan. However, the family was far too prideful. They were obsessed with the ability to use the Sharingan and if you couldn't use it, you would be ostracized and looked down on. Aoi, James, not only couldn't use it, he also had deteriorating eyesight. Because of this, the family disowned him, not wanting him to spread 'bad' genes, even though he was very gifted in other areas. In order to protect him and make use of his skills and age, the Hokage (the leader of our military, in case your forgot) sent him on a reconnaissance mission in England. It is actually quite a common thing to happen to estranged clan members, it is easier to create a permanent false identity if there is nothing holding you to home. There, he established his identity as James Potter while sending reports back to Konoha about his progress and discoveries.

Meanwhile, back at home, the Uchiha's pride continued to be a problem. They believed they deserved more power and began plotting to take it by force. My older brother, Itachi, found out what they were doing since they wanted to include him. He immediately reported to the Hokage, who ordered Itachi to kill off the clan. However, Itachi couldn't bare to kill me. As a result, I was the last of the entire family. When I heard that you were still alive, I had my doubts, but you stood up to me in the hall and proved yourself to be a good person. The Uchiha have paid for their pride, I thought it was time for the Potters to come home.

All I can really offer you for proof of what I say is the mission reports sent back by Aoi. I have attached all the copies I have, in order to access them, just put a drop of blood in the middle of the black circle. I've keyed it to your blood, so only you can open it. It's called a storage seal, and it's something I would be willing to teach you if you came to live with me.

Sincerely,

Sasuke Uchiha

Sasuke sighed, looking over his letter. It was crude, but it would do. A little more emotional than he would like, but he hardly cared. Besides, the English were far less formal than those from the Hidden Countries and Sasuke was already a formal person by nature.

Digging through his papers, he quickly found the scroll containing the mission reports. It was a copy that Naruto had let him keep, thankfully. Hearing a loud caw, Sasuke glanced out the window to see a hawk circling the sky with a bright red ribbon attached to its feet. Perhaps it was a good thing that Harry hadn't come with them. They weren't at war, Naruto was doing everything he could to prevent that, but they were close to it. An attack was expected any day now. Sighing, Sasuke sealed the mission scroll into his smaller message scroll and tied it to the owl before sending it off.

Harry looked at the black circle at the bottom of the scroll with trepidation. Blood was very powerful, magically, and he was a little unsure about this.

"Sirius!" Harry called out, waving the older man over as well as getting Ron and Hermione's attention. Harry handed the scroll over to Sirius who read it through carefully before sighing and handing it back. He ran his hand through his hair.

"I don't know, I just don't know. I mean, James and I were friends! There's no way he was secretly some military spy!" Sirius said. Harry looked down at the scroll and bit his lip, Sirius wouldn't go for it. Not at all, he could already see the man steeling himself to refuse that Harry do it. However, it was probably because he couldn't stand to have his image of James be changed. He thought he knew his friend, to find out something like this after his death must be devastating. Before he could think any further, Harry drew his wand across his thumb, leaving a small but sharp cut. He pressed his thumb against the circle and a poof of smoke later, there was another scroll in his hands. Sirius still wasn't saying anything.

"Blimey!" Ron exclaimed, looking over the scroll. "I've never seen anything like that before!" Harry unrolled it, but was surprised to see several more of the circly thingys and writing he couldn't read.

"Oh, give it here!" Hermione said, snatching it out of his hand and pointing her wand at it, "translatio," she said before handing it back. Harry blinked, the words had cleared up.

Mission: Recon to England Wizarding Community

Length: indefinite

Ninja: Uchiha, Aoi, Genin

After that, it was a list of dates with various circles after each date. Curious, Harry put his still bloody thumb on the first one and out popper another small scroll. Opening it, Harry was met with extensive foreign wiritng. He silently handed it over to Hermione who translated it and handed it back while Harry began pressing his thumb to the other various circles and handing those over as well. Then he began reading.

Mission: Recon to England Wizarding Community

Ninja: Uchiha, Aoi, Genin

My arrival in the country and initial integration has been successful. After scouting the local hospital and stealing their records, I found the perfect couple. I have used a genjutsu on them to convince them that I am their son and they have given me the name James Potter...

"That's Jame's handwriting!" Sirius said, in shock, looking over Harry's shoulder. Harry paused and glanced at his godfather, hoping the man would be alright, before he continued reading.

...I have since begun studying the books at their library in order to make sure that I do not enter the world unprepared.

...I am now attending Hogwarts and plan to send back various plants and potions as I learn about them. On the train here, I met a boy named Sirius Black. He is a pureblood and knows a lot about the politics of this place. In addition, he was sorted into the same house as I am, so I hope that he will be able to help me though, I, of course, will not inform him of my status...

...I have recently met a girl named Lily Evans. Seeing as I am here for an undefined time and am expected to set up a life here in the event of any other ninja coming out here, I wish to ask for permission to begin courting her. I fully understand that she cannot know the truth about me and that if I am called back to the village, I would have to leave her and any children we might have immediately and without warning...

...there has been recent talks of a war going on and I fear that I will become involved. I cannot find a way out of the war. Although I do not think that my other skills will come to light since I am better at fighting with magic now than with jutsu, I will not hold back if my friends or family are in danger...

...This may be my last mission report. My son Harry has become a target of Lord Voldemort's and I must go into hiding. We are planning to use a spell called the Fidelius Charm, which is as powerful as the will of the secret keeper. Unfortunately, the secret keeper cannot live in the location, so we can't use ourselves. We thought about using Dumbledore, but he's getting older and is very active in this war. If he dies, everyone will know our location. We also thought about using Sirius, but everyone knows he's my best friend. Instead, we've decided to advertise Sirius as the secret keeper so that he can draw attention away from us while Peter is our actual secret keeper. Although I trust him, it is entirely possible that our plan will be figured out. If that happens, I may die. If not, then I will send another report when we are able to come out of hiding in an indefinite time.

Hokage-sama, I have a request. If I do die, please watch out for my family. I want them to be happy more than anything, but Harry also deserves to know his heritage.

-Aoi Uchiha

Sirius began crying.

Naruto sat across the table from Mei Terumi, the fifth mizukage. Between them lay a non-agression pact. Naruto and this woman had fought side by side in the last great ninja war. She had been one of the supporters of the Ninja Alliance against Madara. She was a kind woman, if a bit of a flirt. So why was this happening? With a small sigh, Naruto reached out with his brush and signed.

Naruto looked down at the blond drunk woman and rolled his eyes.

"It'll only be for a couple days,"

"NO!" She yelled, throwing the sake bottle at him.

"Granny Tsunade! Please!" Tsunade looked at him, growling.

"What'll you give me?"

"huh?

"What will you give me if I play temporary Hokage?"

"Well, what do you want?"

"Access to your bank account,"

"No way!"

"Fine then, I won't play Hokage for you," She said, taking another swig and turning away. Naruto ground his teeth.

"Fine. I'll give you all my wages for a week,"

"I want a year,"

"No way! I wouldn't be able to pay my rent!"

"You're Hokage! You're making tons of money!"

"But not enough that I can go an entire year without anything! Two weeks!"

"No! Half a year!"

"Fine! A month! That's all you're gonna get outta me!" Naruto shouted. Tsunade smirked.

Naruto grumbled about how much this trip was costing him as he looked up at the castle. There was a grunt from Sasuke and Naruto turned away from the door to look at him. His eyes were focused on something that was happening over near the forest. Naruto moved so that he could see whatever it was that Sasuke was looking at. It was a group of students, including Harry, climbing onto a herd of creepy black skeleton horses. Sasuke and Naruto looked at each other, then began running over there. However, even with their enormous speed, it was too late. The students were in the air, flying away.

"We're following them," Sasuke said, daring Naruto to argue. Instead, Naruto simply nodded and the two of them began to jump through the trees, following the death horses.
