Hey guys so here i am again attempting to write another story. Ugh I hate writers block anyways. As always, comments/reviews/messages are encouraged.

Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto or Harry Potter

It was late and the half-moon shone brightly over the grounds of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. It had been three weeks since summer vacation had started, yet in one of the tallest towers a small meeting of three was being held. Albus Dumbledore sat behind his desk in his office and across from him sat the Deputy Headmistress Minerva McGonagall beside her, Severus Snape Potions Master. To say that Albus looked stressed, was an understatement, no it was more than that, with what he had found upon entering a certain vault earlier that week, he was rather feeling his age for once.

"Are you sure about this Albus?" Minerva questioned.

"I am sure Minerva. Sirius requested I get him a few things from his vault. When it was opened, I found Lily and James lost will. When confronted, Sirius had no idea that it was there."

"So what does this mean? Has it been read?" Albus nodded solemnly. "It has. And in light of what has been found, we have to remove Harry from the care of Petunia, immediately."

"What for? What about the blood wards Albus?" Sighing softly Albus sat back in his chair, his gaze lingering on the two professors in front of him. How did something like this be missed for this long? "It appears that Petunia is not related to Lily by blood, in fact Lily was adopted as a baby." He spoke this quickly yet softly as he held out a piece of parchment to the duo. Minerva took it from him, her eyes sweeping over it before looking at the man.

"If this is real then Harry isn't safe there. Have you taken action? Sent someone to retrieve him?" Minerva asked. Albus held up a hand. "I have already informed Moody as well as Remus, they should be about ready to leave to retrieve Harry. There is a few other things that came to light."

"Such as?" Severus questioned, not that he particularly cared.

"Well, we can get Sirius' name cleared. Both James and Lily left their memories of the night that they changed the secret keeper to Peter Pettigrew. Why? I do not know, maybe they felt that something was amiss and did so as a precaution? However that does not matter, with the memories given to Amelia Bones, I have been able to get Sirius the trial he was never able to receive, the trial will take place in three days. Amelia Bones will be the one to question Sirius, she will also be the one to request that he be given Veritaserum and will most likely want to view his memory of the day that he had gotten arrested."

"So you think he will be set free then?" Minerva questioned. To which Albus just simply nodded. "With him being a free man, Harry will have the option of moving in with Sirius and having the life he has always dreamed of." Scowling Severus sat back and crossed his arms, he was not looking forward to dealing with the insufferable brat after a summer spent with the mutt.

"Is there anything else Albus?" Minerva questioned feeling as if the man had not told them everything.

"There is actually. Not only did Lily leave the will, her memories, and adoption papers, she also left the names of her real parents as well as her siblings and any of their children." Taking a moment to gather his thoughts, Albus pulled out another piece of parchment and handed it to Minerva before continuing. "Her real mother's name was Yuriko Suzuki, her brother one Yashamaru Suzuki and her sister being Karura Suzuki who married Rasa Kato, who then had three children of their own. Gaara, Kankuro, and Temari. Her sister died after giving birth to Gaara, her brother died a few years later and her brother-in-law died years later as well after he went missing."

Taking a moment to let the information sink in, he fiddled with the papers in front of him before he continued, not giving the other two the opportunity to ask any questions. "The reason she was put up for adoption was never brought to light. However, this leaves Harry with three cousins who I am sure he would love to meet."

"I see. Do you know where they are then? Harry's cousins I mean." Minerva asked.

"I do. I am sure you both remember the alliance that the wizarding world has with the Elemental Nations?" They both nodded in acknowledgement. "It just so happens that Gaara is the current Kazekage of Suna."

"Kazekage? Isn't that the leader of one of the villages?" Minerva asked, her eyebrows scrunched up in thought.

"It is. Meaning that he is a powerful Shinobi." Albus replied as he sat forward once again. He folded his hands in front of him on his desk. "There is more though, I also found two letters within the envelope of the will." His eyes landed on Severus.

"Severus, the letters are addressed to you." He held out the pieces of folded parchment to Severus. The potion's master scowled but took the parchment from the older man and tucked them inside his robes to read later. Apart of him felt apprehensive, another part of him felt hopeful, not that he would show it to anyone. No he instead kept his scowl visible, not betraying anything that he was currently feeling as he listened to the conversation between Minerva and Albus.

"Albus are you crazy? Hiring shinobi? What for, there is no place safer than Hogwarts, we both know this."

"I agree Minerva but with the Ministry and Daily Prophet slandering Harry's name as well as my own, it leaves Voldermort to do as he wishes. I would not put it above him to try to trick Harry in some way to get him outside the safety of Hogwarts. Not to mention the time that he will be exposed in public while transporting from one place to another. I doubt Tom would actually try anything but I would much rather be safe than sorry. He will be in the safety of Headquarter's and will be accompanied to the train station by member's of the Order, but once on the train, he will be alone until he reaches Hogsmeade where I will have guards posted."

"I have written to both Gaara and the current Hokage of Konoha requesting a meeting in which I will explain the job I have for them. I am certain that once I tell Gaara of his relation to Harry, he will be more than willing to send some of his ninja to protect him."

"I see." Sighing Minerva nodded. "Well if this is what you think is best, then who am I to argue? You out of all of us know more about the Shinobi, what with your friendship to the Third Hokage." Albus chukled. "Yes well, I can assure you that whoever is sent will not only be able to fit in with the student population but will be able to protect Harry as well as the rest of the school in case something were to happen. I just hope that I am not wrong about their willingness to work with us."

"Is that all you needed us for Albus?" Severus questioned as he stood up, bored of the conversation already.

"It is. I shall inform you both once I have received confirmation of a meeting with the two Kage as well as when Sirius is presented as a free man."

"How thoughtful of you Albus." Severus sneered before turning around and walking quickly out of the man's office, his robe swishing behind him. He was already beginning to dread the upcoming school year, and it was only the beginning of summer vacation. He quickly descended the steps leading from the Headmaster's office and walked brusquely through the school to the dungeons where his own personal quarter's could be found.

The day had started out as any other for one Harry Potter. He woke up to his aunt banging on his door yelling at him to start breakfast where he would watch as his relatives would eat before giving him whatever was remaining, which normally wasn't very much. He then was given a list of chores to do that day with the normal threat of no dinner if he were to skip any of them on the list.

He had just finished the last of his chores an hour before and had been lounging in his room to await dinner as usual when he heard a knock on the front door. Though he was curious as to who had come to call, he knew better than to try and find out so instead he stayed sprawled out on his bed, completely bored.

"Hello, may I help you?" Petunia asked before she registered who exactly was standing on her doorstep. With her eyes narrowed she closed the door halfway. "What do you want? If you've come for Harry make it quick otherwise get off my doorstep." Remus rolled his eyes as he stepped forward.

"Petunia if you would please let us in your home, there are some things that must be discussed privately before we can extract Harry from your home."

"Absolutely not! You are not going to step foot into my home!" Petunia shrilled earning herself a glare from Mad-eye who simply ignored the woman and pushed his way through. "If I were you, I would call Harry down here so we can get this over with." Remus stated simply as he followed in behind Mad-eye who was then followed by Tonks.

Anger showed clearly on her face as she quickly closed the front door after checking to make sure that none of her neighbors had seen her unexpected visitors. She stopped at the bottom of the stairs and hollered for the boy to get downstairs immediately before making her way into the sitting room to find that her husband was standing nose to nose with that Moody person who they had briefly been introduced to at the beginning of the summer. It was clear that they had exchanged some words but neither had backed down from the other. Sighing softly she placed her hand on Vernon's arm. "Vernon dear they will be removing Harry as soon as they are through here."

"The sooner the better." Vernon muttered as he finally decided to step away from the other man and instead pulled Petunia down onto the couch next to him, thankful that Dudley had not returned home as of yet. A few minutes later Harry entered the room only to stop as his eyes landed on the three older wizards.

"Remus? Moody? What are you guys doing here?"

"We are here to escort you to Headquarter's for the remainder of the summer of course." Remus replied as he engulfed the teenager in a brief hug. "You mean I'm leaving?" Harry asked not being able to help the smile that spread across his face.

"You are but first there are a few things we need to discuss with these two." Moody stated nodding toward the Dursleys. "Tonks go help Harry pack his belongings, make sure to grab everything that belongs to him."

"On it Moody, come on Harry, show me your room yeah?" Tonks said brightly. Harry looked confused but agreed quickly. Once Moody ensured that Harry was busy packing, he turned his gaze back to the two sitting on the sofa. He remained quiet however, allowing Remus to be the one to speak up. "Petunia, were you aware that your sister was adopted?"

A look of shock crossed Petunia's face briefly before turning into a look of confusion. "I did not actually. How do you know?"

"Lily and James' will was found a few days ago, in the envelope was the adoption papers as well as instructions as to what they wanted done if they were to ever pass on. It seems that, Lily was adopted by your parents when you were merely two years old and her a baby. Meaning, Harry is not blood related to you, therefore has no protection while within these walls."

"If Lily was adopted and he has no protection here, then why has he been returning here every summer since he started at that place?" Petunia asked snidely.

"The answer is simple from what Albus has told us. Lily had done something to ensure that any blood wards put into place if Harry was left with you, would remain so until their will had been read. Since it has now been found and read, the blood wards have dropped. I am unsure as to what she did exactly but now that they are gone, Harry is not safe here. He will be staying at a secret location until he returns to Hogwarts in September. Arrangements will be made during the year as to where he will end up for every summer until he graduates. Therefore you will no longer have to worry about taking him into your home after tonight."

It was at this moment before either Vernon or Petunia could speak up that Tonks returned with Harry, his trunk and Hedwig in tow. "All packed Moody." Tonks said brightly.

"Good let's move out." He stated as he made his way out of the sitting room and to the front door. "The quicker we leave the sooner we can get Mr. Potter to safety.

" Remus was the only who had remained behind a thoughtful expression on his face. "Before I go, might I suggest you pack up your family and leave? The blood wards had not only protected Harry but you and your family as well Petunia. Now that they are no longer in play, it might be safer if you were to move. Otherwise, the Dark Lord will come looking for Harry. I would think you know enough about your sister's world and death to know that you all are endanger regardless of Harry being here or not." With that he simply turned and left, leaving both Vernon and Petunia sitting in silence.

Once he joined the other's outside on the sidewalk, he quickly grabbed Harry's arm and disappeared using side-along-apparation. They reappeared in a small park across a row of houses in the middle of London, motioning for Harry to be quiet, Remus took out a piece of paper and instructed him to read it and memorize it. Once done Harry handed the paper back to Remus who promptly set it aflame before motioning Harry to follow him and told him to repeat what he had read in his mind only. Harry looked up in amazement as Number Twelve appeared as they drew closer to the house. Remus then ushered Harry inside promising all will be explained once they were settled in the kitchen and Moody and Tonks had arrived.

Five minutes after Harry had been ushered inside, he found himself surrounded in the kitchen by the Weasley gang, Hermione, his godfather Sirius, Remus, Tonks and Moody. Smiles were reflected on every face as Harry had been hugged by the group of people before Molly hollered for everyone to calm down. Once the noise level had dropped, Harry turned his attention to Remus.

"Remus you promised to explain things to me. What's going on? I mean normally I am left at the Dursley's for the majority of summer vacation. Don't get me wrong I am glad that I do not have to be there any longer than I already was, but still.." He let his voice trail off as Remus and Sirius exchanged knowing smiles.

"Which shall we tell him first Moony?" Sirius questioned a small smirk playing at his lips. Chuckling Remus nodded for Sirius to go ahead, he knew that his friend was anxious to tell Harry his good news first. Harry as well as the other children turned their attention to Sirius. "I am being summoned to the Ministry in three days Harry."

"What? How come?" Harry questioned as worry seeped into the pit of his stomach. "You are being hunted by every Auror that is employed by the Ministry, why would they summon you?"

"Calm down pup." Sirius smirked. "I am being summoned to appear in front of the Wizengamot. I am finally getting a proper trial."

"Your kidding? What if you get sent back to Azkaban?" Harry questioned, a frown forming.

"Don't worry so much pup, I will be set free. That I can promise you. Amelia Bones who is in charge of the Law Enforcement Department will be the one questioning me, I have already been informed I am to allow them to view my memories of that day, as well as to testify under the influence of Veritaserum. I have no doubt that I will be a free man come the weekend." He smiled brightly at Harry who couldn't help but return the smile, though a part of him still worried.

Remus placed his hand on Harry's arm. "There is more news cub, the reason we extracted you from the Dursleys is because of this." Remus reached in his robes and extracted an envelope before handing it over to Harry. Unsure of what it could be, Harry grabbed the envelope and opened it, withdrawing a folded piece of parchment. He opened it and began to read his eyes growing a tad bit wider with every word he read.

Harry,

My wonderful amazing child. If you are reading this, it is because we have been betrayed by Peter who we made the secret-keeper of our location and have been killed by none other than the Dark Lord himself. I trust Peter and am sure that he wouldn't do it willingly mind you, but just in case he does give up our location (again I doubt it would be of his own free will) I was able to set up some safety measures. It also means that our will that we had hidden in Sirius' vault has been found and read. It also means that the truth about Petunia and my relationship has come to light. You see Harry, Petunia and I are not related by blood, I was adopted as a baby. I do not know why I was adopted, nor do I care. This just means that you are not safe with them, in the case that you have to be placed with them, I have found a way to ensure that any wards that may be set in place are to be kept as so until the time that our will is read. Normally you would have been summoned to the reading of the will (provided that you survive shall our safe house be compromised) but because I suspect that the Dark Lord will not die so easily, I left a letter stating that you are to be kept wherever you are placed until the reading had taken place to ensure that you are safe.

I apologize for this Harry, I will always place your safety above anything else and I hope that those around you will do the same. You are probably wondering if you have any family aside from Petunia, the answer is yes. My parents sent me my adoption papers over 6 months ago and I was able to track down my mother's family before we were sent into hiding. From what I have been able to gather, you have three cousin's as well as two uncle's that are alive Harry. I know that you would prefer to live with Sirius if he is a free man by the time you read this, but I implore you to at least meet and get to know our family. Get to know them, something that I wish every day that I could do.

I know in my heart that you will grow to be a strong kind-hearted teenager/man and I know that you will do whatever it takes to protect those around you. I also know that you will probably spend many nights wishing that you could know what it feels like to have us around, that is if we are found and we don't make it and you do. Just know that we will die doing what love, protecting you. Your father and I love you so much Harry, keep whatever friends you make close. They will be there for you when you need them the most. Keep your head up sweetheart, you are stronger than you may think.

Love Always,

Lily

By the time Harry had finished reading, he was crying silently. Not just because his mother had written him a letter but also because he had family, blood family that he could find and meet. He was also free from having to go back to that house where he had suffered and nearly starved to death since he was little. He felt a bunch of different emotions as he sat rereading the letter, one of the only links he had to his mother. A small smile appeared as he wiped away his tears, his heart feeling a tad bit lighter with the knowledge that his mother's letter had given him. He had a family and he had the option to live with Sirius once he was free. He looked up and met his godfather's eyes, a look of understanding passed between them. As soon as he could, Harry would do whatever it took to find his mother's family and meet them, he only hoped that when he did, they would accept him.

The rest of the night was spent in celebration, a small party was thrown in light of Harry's freedom from having to return to the Durselys. Laughter filled the kitchen as the group mingled, the twins even set off a few of their famous prank items earning a telling off by their mother.

As Harry lay in bed later that night, he couldn't help but smile. Maybe, just maybe life would be better for him from here on out, and maybe just maybe he could finally start living despite what the Daily Prophet and Ministry was saying about him and Dumbledore.

As those last few thoughts floated through his mind, he rolled over and allowed himself to give into the exhaustion he felt from a long and eventful night.

Hey guys! Soooo I decided to go ahead and finish this chapter tonight. Now to answer some questions that may or may not pop up due to this chapter.

This story is taking place two years after the fourth great ninja war and is taking place in harry's fifth year. I know that in the books he defends himself against Dementors in front of Dudley and is tried for the use of underage magic, but seriously what is the fun in that? So therefore I have completely extracted that from the story. Instead I am going to make Sirius a free man, I personally dislike how he was sent off to Azkaban without a fair trial.

If some of you are wondering why I did not have harry find out who his mother's family is in her letter, it is because I would rather have him meet them face to face.

Also here is a list of Harry's mother's Blood family.

Real Mother- Yuriko Suzuki

Brother-Yashamaru Suzuki

Sister-Karura Suzuki

Brother-in-law- Rasa Kato

Nephew's- Kankuro and Gaara Kato

Niece- Temari Kato

Lily's Real Name-Sayuri Suzuki

I wanted to put this list so nobody get's confused on who is who. Also, I picked Sayuri is because it means "small lily." It is broken down like this. (In Japanese (Sa) means small and in Japanese Kanji (Yuri) means Lily.) I wanted a name that could be linked to her being called Lily by her adoptive parents. Pretty neat right? haha just kidding.

Anyways, if you are wondering what is in Snape's letters, well you will have to read it in the next chapter. I will end my mindless rambling for now. I look forward to hearing from all of you!
