I own neither Harry Potter nor Naruto!

"You three must leave. Return to whatever barbaric place you are from and never return!" the woman in pink ordered. Team Gai stood in Dumbledore's old office across a desk from Dolores Umbridge. Umbridge had just replaced Albus Dumbledore as the Headmaster –or Headmistress –of Hogwarts and her first act had been to call the shinobi to her office.

Tenten glanced at Neji, who stood on her left, and Lee, who stood on Neji's left. Neji barely nodded his agreement. "Yes, of course, Umbridge-san. We shall pack our things and depart shortly." Neji answered mildly, with the right amount of respect and polite interest in his voice. It was the same voice that his uncle, Hiashi, and his cousin, Hanabi, used in such family meetings. Perhaps all those long Hyuuga meetings were finally paying off, then.

"I want you gone by the end of the week!" the new headmistress exclaimed.

"We'll be gone before then. Trust me." Tenten couldn't help it. She just had to say something. Umbridge's nose crinkled at Tenten's outburst.

"Good." The three Konoha shinobi filed out of the office. They walked in silence until they were within the safety of their common room. Tenten silently began sealing their belongings into different scrolls. Anything of Lee's she sealed into green scrolls, Neji's into pale grey scrolls, and her own into red scrolls. When she was done with the common room, she handed the boys their respective scrolls and walked into her room to pack and seal away her own personal things. Neji and Lee likewise entered their shared room and packed their clothing and other personal items in the room. When they were done, the three met in the common room.

"Are we really leaving?" Tenten asked.

"Yes. Umbridge is the headmistress, and therefore is now our client. If she wants us to leave, then we must. Besides, we are in foreign territory. It's about time we returned to Konoha. Agreed?" was Neji's reply.

"Yeah… It just doesn't seem right. Who knows what Umbridge will do to the students?" Tenten sighed. As strange as Hogwarts was, she was certainly going to miss the magical place which had been their home for so long.

"She won't do anything. The wizards' minister will be watching her closely. Besides, I doubt that McGonagall would let her get away with too much. But this isn't our problem. It is theirs." Neji, ever the voice of reason, answered. But even he sounded like he didn't believe his own words.

"I agree with Tenten! I feel that we must do more." Lee declared.

Neji loudly let out a breath of air in annoyance. "It's not our mission to fix everything. The client wants us to leave, so we must leave." He paused, took a deep breath, and then continued. "Tenten, do you have that portkey which Dumbledore-san gave us?"

"Yes. I'll ask McGonagall to activate it for us. When do you want to leave?"

"Tomorrow morning. I have matters to attend to with Hermoine Granger." Tenten nodded and quickly left in order to find McGonagall. Neji left after her to discuss his curse seal with the studious friend of Harry Potter, which left Lee by himself in the common room, free to do whatever he wished.

Lee grinned once his teammates were gone. Perhaps one last password change wouldn't hurt. Lee left the common room and talked with the girl in the painting. "Hello, I would like to change the password."

"Ah, I was wondering when you would do this again. It's been awhile since you last changed the password without your teammate's knowledge." The girl responded airily.

"The current password is Morning Peacock. I wish to change the password to…"

Later, when Tenten returned from McGonagall's office, she saw Neji sitting on the ground outside of their common room. He wasn't meditating, so Tenten assumed that something had happened. "Bird, what's the problem?" she asked.

Neji turned to face her and sighed. "Lee. He changed the password again."

"Again?" she asked in disbelief. Hadn't they had a talk about changing the passwords? "One of these days, I'm going to hit that boy over the head with my…" Tenten realized that she was standing in the middle of the hallway and saying this to the captain of her team (at least for this mission). "Um, never mind. What have you tried guessing to get in?"

"Everything containing youth, lotuses, Gai-sensei, and their taijutsu moves. I don't know what else to try and neither Lee nor the girl will help me. Do you have any ideas?"

Tenten shrugged. "No idea. But he'll have to come out eventually. I guess that we can just stay here and wait for him. And eventually we'll get in. We already packed everything, so we just have to grab our scrolls. Worst case we climb the exterior walls and crawl in through a window." Tenten suggested.

Neji nodded. "Where is the portkey?"

"McGonagall said that it will take her a while to set it up, but we're to meet her in her office at seven tomorrow morning. How was your meeting with Hermoine Granger?"

Neji carefully loosened the mask and slipped it down so that it showed the green mark across his forehead. "I decided that it was too big of a risk. Hermoine does not know about our shinobi skills, and I did not want the release of my curse seal to ruin my eyes or my chakra coils. And Hanabi wants the seals removed, so I decided it best to simply wait and let it come in its own time. I did not want to ruin any plans of Hanabi's by getting the seal taken off during a mission." Neji explained.

Tenten nodded. "Whatever you think is best. Lee and I don't really know anything about the inner workings of the Hyuuga or their protocol, so all we can do is support these decisions that you have to make."

Neji nodded and fixed his ANBU mask. "Thank you, Tenten."

She nodded. Neji assumed she was grinning beneath her mask, but he could only see her brown eyes through the eyeholes of her mask. She stood up from her spot on the floor next to Neji and faced the picture. "Lee! LET US IN! DON'T MAKE ME COME IN THERE WITH MY TANTO!"

The painting still didn't swing open. "Tenten, calm down."

"But Neji, I'm tired. It's almost midnight and I just want to go to sleep before leaving tomorrow morning." At the word 'Neji' the portrait swung open and the girl grinned at them. "You're kidding me, right? The password was Neji?" Tenten asked incredulously.

The two shinobi entered the common room through the opening. Lee was sprawled out on the couch, but he shot up when the entered. "No, Tenten! I asked he girl in the painting to open when you two said each other's names!"

"Really?" Tenten asked. "Don't you remember that we're wearing these masks and aren't supposed to call each other our actual names? When we're outside this common room we are Bird, Dragon, and Tiger. Not Neji, Tenten, and Lee. Thank Kami we're going back tomorrow, I don't think I can take any more of this craziness with passwords." Tenten brushed past them into her room.

"Was it really that bad, Neji?" Lee asked, all innocence once again.

"No, just annoying, Lee. Besides, it is late and Tenten just wanted to go to sleep. Maybe you can try and stop with your antics for a few days as an apology." Neji walked past Lee too. "I'm going to bed as well. We have to be in McGonagall's office at seven. Don't forget." Neji entered his and Lee's room, which left Lee alone in the commons.

In the morning, the three Konoha shinobi stood in McGonagall's office with the Transfiguration teacher. It was the first time they stood in front of her without their masks. When she first saw them, she gasped. "You three are barely twenty! How could they send you here?" she asked.

"Where we're from, we've technically been adults since we were twelve. And now we're all highly ranked shinobi. Not just anyone can join the ANBU Black Ops." Tenten responded. There was pride evident in her voice at how far they had all come as a team since their Genin days. "So, is the portkey ready?"

"Yes. If we ever need your help again, or you need ours, I'll try to remain in contact." McGonagall smiled at them and the three smiled at her in return. "Now, all of you link arms." As usual –when they weren't on a mission talking to their client –Tenten was standing between her two teammates with Neji on her right and Lee on her left. The three linked elbows and touched the portkey at once. There was a nauseating feeling, and then they were standing in the Hokage's office. However, instead of Tsuande, Kakashi Hatake was sitting in the Hokage's desk.

"Ah, you three. Welcome back. How was your mission? Long, I'm assuming?"

They nodded. "Kakashi-sensei, where is Tsunade-sama?" Neji asked.

"She retired shortly after you three left on your mission. I've been Hokage for a few months now. Neji, I want your mission report on my desk in three days. You're dismissed." The three shinobi made it out of the new Hokage's office before they all looked at one another questioningly.

"How long have we really been gone for Kakashi-sensei to become Hokage?" Tenten asked the others?

The End! Hello my amazing readers! I'm sorry to say that this is now over! Maybe I'll write some crossover one-shots in the future, but this is the end of Team Gai's adventures in Hogwarts. Anyways, review and let me know what you thought.

QoU: What kind of animal would you bring to Hogwarts (ie. Cat, owl, or toad)?

My answer: An owl. I'm allergic to cats and I don't see the appeal in having a toad as a pet. But with an owl I could send letters to my friends over the summer and letters to my family during the school year. So, yeah.
