Perhaps the start to something more or perhaps not.

Either way…Enjoy!

.:The Elite Guard:.

Harry really wasn't quite sure what to think of Dumbledore's new security measures. He got the general idea but he didn't really see the added benefit this supposed elite guard offered.

The young fifteen year old first had the pleasure of meeting them at a rather impromptu interruption they had made in the middle of one of the Order's meetings.

They certainly looked the part of some type of strange rag tag team you generally saw in action movies.

The three were relatively tall, the shortest being the only female of the group judging by the obtrusively bright shade of hair and yet she was still a good two inches taller than him. The other two were well muscled men, one with ruffled blonde hair and the other with shaggy black.

They all wore matching black uniforms plated with some kind of white armor and strange masks with odd animal like drawings on them.

Yes they definitely weren't lacking in the intimidation factor... At least appearance wise.

Harry couldn't help but wonder if they were as great and powerful as Dumbledore had made them out to be in his rather brief and vague description that had been given at their arrival. They were all rather strange.

The tallest of the three, the one with the dark hair whose name was some kind of bird Harry couldn't remember, was also the quietest. He generally wasn't seen milling around the house like his other two companions. Honestly, Harry found him to be the most unsettling of the three. He was just so creepy. The guy seemed to live in the shadows. Also he sometimes got a bit handsy with the pink haired guard when he thought no one was looking. Or maybe he knew people were looking and he just didn't really care.

Then there was the girl with the odd pink hair that reminded Harry of the auror member who had come to get him from the Dursley's just a few short weeks ago. She was nice enough if not distant and reserved. He remembered Hermione saying something about different cultures and social norms, but didn't really find it all that interesting to pay close enough attention.

She seemed to have a bit a temper that would flare up in response to one of her squad members, more often than not the blonde one was on the receiving end. It was entertaining and terrifying all at once. Though generally terror was the dominant sentiment felt all around sans the twins they seemed to find it endlessly amusing. More than once she had smacked her blonde teammate so hard upside the head he would go careening down the stairs and she would stomp down after him muttering strange words under her breath.

Then of course there was the blonde one. He seemed to be the most open and occasionally friendly member of the group, though he was definitely he strangest. He would sit at the table and try to talk to them and answer their questions. However, his English was so horrendously bad they only got a mess of broken phrases and miss pronounced words. This would bring on an annoyed sigh and the occasional slap from the pink haired one and a string of insults from the black haired one. All of which would more likely than not end in a screaming match between the blonde and black haired guards spoken in a different language.

Not to mention the blonde was utterly fascinated and horrified with practically everything in the house. He was always touching things, twisting and turning them every which way. It was if he believed they would reveal all their secrets if he looked long enough. Harry could only imagine the expressions the man was making under that mask of his.

He also had a strange habit of shrieking every time Kreacher came around. Not that anyone really faulted him for that one.

But still Harry wasn't really sure if he should throw all his cards in with this lot.

They were...weird.

I typed this on my iPod last nigat midnight last night in about ten minutes. I've gone through and made some corrections and hope it came out all right.

I was very pleased with myself after I wrote this because I really want to write a crossover. I've read dozens upon dozens of NaruHP Xovers and fell in love with the ANBU guard protection scenario. Though it occurred to me yesterday it rather out of character of them to act in such a manner so I tried out my own thing.

I know this isn't how we generally perceive the ANBU to act, but I came up with my own scenario of it being more identity protection being so far from home in a foreign land. So yeah I hope you enjoyed it.

And yes I did shamelessly add a touch of SasuSaku…a little OC, but they are my hopeless OTP and this is fanfiction so I thought "why the hell not?"

**Should I start a small series of slightly humorous snippets of ANBU!team7 at Hogwarts?**

Please let me know your thoughts.
