Chapter 55.2- And so the Dragons Danced

He smiled and waved at the people as he passed he kissed babies, blessed pregnant women who wished for their children to be strong benders like him and showed off his green flames for children as he made his way through he city. The journey from the gates of Azulon to the palace would take a man on a horse about thirty minutes if he moved at a reasonable pace. It ended up taking him about two hours with all the distractions. He still wouldn’t have had it any other way. The line of Sozin had...

Chapter 51.2- One Thousand Hands

I decided to test the shield and brought my chakra to bear, forming a wind release: rasenshuriken in the time that it used to take me to form a rasengan. I took a breath before I threw the powerful attack straight at her shield. She didn’t even move, trusting the shield, the jutsu hit and expanded just like it was supposed to, into millions of microscopic needles that tore apart targets at a microscopic level. Usually, the explosion died down to reveal targets that had been close to atomise...

Chapter 32.2- Doom Days

Or as fair as it could be with someone like me on the board. The threats to my life were not limited to schoolyard foes and rivalries, and that was enough to make it clear to me that this didn’t mater. I’d still win, because Doom would never lose, but I’d do it with the understanding that the gap between me and them meant nothing because they weren’t the yardstick I would measure myself against. That yardstick sat calmly on the judge’s table, not even decent enough to openly declar...

Chapter 55.1- And so the Dragons Danced

Natsu returned to fanfare as he rode his ostrich horse through the city. It was both a symbol of his victory and a statement of his bravery. He had been attacke din this very city once already. His Grandfather had died. He had mourned, and then like a good son of Agni, he had channeled his grief into something productive. He had conquered the last bastion of independence from the Fire Nation. He would have to change that name eventually, he thought to himself. This was the Fire nation. This p...

Chapter 51.1- One Thousand Hands

My eyes swept from left to right and took note of the number of pupperts and their positions. Chiyo’s so called Senju Extinction Brigade was made up of ten puppets at the very least, but I could not disregard the possibility that there were even more in stuck, and each one seemed to have a unique ability. One could produce a sound that disoriented me worst than even the strongest Genjutsu ‘d ever encountered. There was no chakra in the ability either. It was doing it with pure frequency m...

Chapter 32.1- Doom Days

“For the Second Task, what we have before us is essentially a race. But in true Tri-Wizard fashion, it is a race, longer and more complex than any I have ever seen. First of all, the champions must journey to the buttom of the Black Lake where they will come in contact with persons who have agreed to be their hostages and helpers for this task. After that, they must journey to the island on the other end of the lake. There they will be expected to mount brooms and retrieve the antidote to t...

Chapter 54- And so the Dragons Danced

Food, drinks, and music. That was all that as necessary to have a good party in the fire nation. Things like entertainment tended to come out on their own once the party began to get going. That was the story for the party Toji held for Natsu’s victory in the Northern Water Tribe. He faked a letter from messenger hawk. Faked joy in the throne room where he’d briefly held court in a chair below the steps to the throne, like the High General was authorized to do in times of war. Old man Hir...

Chapter 50- One Thousand Hands (Complete)

The black lightning did not just cover him from head to toe like his old lightning cloak did. It felt in some ways like he had transformed himself into the lightning. His body became much more amorphous and difficult to place. Sarutobi began the next phases of the duel with wind release so powerful that it scared the ground as it flew towards its intended target. The raikage would have had an easy time of dodging the attack, but almost like he was making a statement, he chose to go through ra...

Chapter 31: Resumption- Doom Days

The Hogwarts Express was different this time. Scratch that, the express itself was much the same except for the new coating of paint and the aurors who floated next to it on broomsticks, but the train station had changed a fair bit. Say what you would about the Ministry, but they were responding to the attack very well. They had installed a thief’s downfall that sounded an alarm and washed away all enchantments. Several witches and even a few wizards had been subject of false alarms because...

Chapter 31.6- Doom Days

—

I stared at the target in front of me and moved my wand through a specific set of motions. In the end, water rose from the thin air around it and encased it in a ball before freezing into a single block. I smiled before shattering it into a million pieces with a silent blasting curse. Elemental magic had been coming easier and easier since my practice sessions in the room had become longer, and the ritual’s effects had settled into my magic as a whole. Fire came easiest— hellhou...

Chapter 54.6- And so the Dragons Danced

“Enough” Toji said, putting an end to their squabbling and muttering. They were silly creatures to begin with, and this displays hd done nothing for his regard of them. Left to his devices, he would have killed them all and left chaos in this wake, but that was no ay to secure Natsu’s rule. The Fire Nation did not consist only of the Fire Nation anymore and that meant that Natsu could not afford to be dealing with the chaos these nobles would cause with their absence. Even Toji would ad...

Chapter 50.6- One Thousand Hands

Two puppets appeared from the ground, invisible until they were literally within my line of sight and from them came an avalanche of needles that glowed a deep, worrying purple. Poison. Might even be the same poison that had killed Choni. I pulled at Kurama’s power and screamed with raw power that sent all the needles flying away from me, moving in a random pattern. I noticed some bury themselves into the still bodies of some of my comrades, but allowed it to distract me little as I kept fo...

Chapter 31.5- Doom Days

XXXXX

“You did not tell me you were a scholar, Monsieur Potter” She said with a smirk as she tossed the issue of the Daily Prophet that covered my results in my face. I chuckled at her overblown nature.

“There are many things about me that you are yet to learn, Mademoiselle” I leaned down to whisper in her ear. She pushed me back in a friendly manner and I made a show of falling back to the grass. I was taking a break from study and work— read my past self was busy in t...

Chapter 54.5- And so the Dragons Danced

Whispers quieted as he walked in. Several of these men had already tried to escape the Palace and been held against their will. Several more of them had sent aides to register their displeasure at being held. They thought they were being subtle, but their actions gave them away. The other lords, the ones with no guilt or involvement were more interested in sticking around to figure out the gossip that was sure to follow from his arrest of Lord Matsuhito’s chief Aide. The man himself thought...

Chapter 50.5- One Thousand Hands

I shielded my face with my cloaked hand and let the shockwave from the explosion push me into the ground. I touched the ground with my back, and turned the whole thing into mud that encased me and shielded me from the explosion of senbon that followed the fiery explosion that had driven me off in the first place. I activated my byakugan, getting a good view of the puppet that stood in the middle of the chaotic clearing the explosion had created.

“Thank you, Kurama” I said mentally ...

Chapter 31.4- Doom Days

“I’ll be done with Professor Flitwick’s tutelage at the end of the Session and if there’s anything left for me to learn, I will learn it on the circuit” I said with a shrug. I watched her lips purse.

“Harry, the Headmaster wants me to impress on you that this is the safest place in the world for you, especially considering what is going on outside now.” She said, finally getting to the crux of the matter with a deep sigh as she reached up to massage the bridge of her nose...

Chapter 54.4- And so the Dragons Danced

“So I’ll give you one chance to give me the information I need before I begin to extract it from you in means that you will find most unpleasant” He said, taking out a set of tweezers made from wrought iron and a rusted hammer from his little bag of tools. Natsu didn’t have the best regard for more brutal means of information extraction, preferring his water trick, but Toji was a simple, traditional man, and he knew what would make a bird like this one sing.

“I have no idea w...

Chapter 50.4- One Thousand Hands

We practically crawled through the treeline, taking a much slower pace to account for the injured, the weary, and the bereaved. These people were family in some cases and so any losses hit harder than it would have in any traditional squad. Most Cpatains would not have tolerated the delay, but considering we’d completed the mission faster than anyone could have reasonably expected, I felt it was fine. It did endear me to them even more. If I ever needed to depose Hiruzen, I would need the s...

Chapter 50.3- One Thousand Hands

XXXXXX- SHORIRAMA SENJU

I considered my options now. I had sage mode, at least I was sure that I would once the hero water ran its course. I could feel the nature chakra all around me now, and sure I might need to speak to the Whales about properly balancing it with my internal reserves to avoid turning to stone or whatever, but that was probably the easier bit of the puzzle. I was on my way to being stronger than ever, and that tempted me to continue into Kusa. I had accomplished my mi...

Chapter 31.3- Doom Days

It mattered little, though, because I was careful. With the time turner, I could make very day count for one and a half with no problems and that meant I could get a solid six hours of sleep each day— while still getting thirty waking hours instead of twenty-four like everyone else did. I had time to work on charms, transfiguration, dark arts, review Flitwick’s memories, and attend training sessions with him, while still making sure I got all the rest I needed. That was exemplified by the...

Chapter 54.3- And so the Dragons Danced

It took him half a candle’s turn to make his way around the room to where Shi and Mako stood, behind the drinks. Eyes follow him all the way so he hoped that they had something substantial for him as the reason for calling his attention, because anything less would risk ruining the plan for no reason. “Talk to me”, he said as he got within range for them to hear me, but out of range from being heard by anyone else.

“We’ve found the person who hired the Prisoner, my Lord” Sh...

Chapter 50.2- One Thousand Hands

She watched as the Raikage looked around himself, waiting to see if the Hokage would pop back up before his gaze snapped to hers. She instantly ensnared him in a genjutsu but he broke it in a second and turned his gaze into a glare aimed right at her forehead. In the space between blinks, he was right upon her. She substituted with one of Shori’s newest inventions, and watched as the clone he barreled through exploded the instant it was destroyed. He remained unscathed and she lashed out wi...

Chapter 31.2- Doom Days

“Want to talk to him?” Hermione asked as she followed my eyes t see where I’d been looking. I scoffed, instead of replying. Ronald Weasley was barely more than useless on his best day.

“You’ve changed, Harry” She said, giving me a sad look.

“We both have” I replied.

“No. No one has changed the way you have. You used to need my help telling the difference between Monkshood and Asphodel, and now you’re getting the highest possible grades on your OWLS aft...

Chapter 54.2- And so the Dragons Danced

His mother? That bastard had the audacity to mention his mother in this? The woman that he had killed in his search for the perfect firebending heir. All his brothers might be benders, but between the lot of them they’d struggle to come up with enough power to light a row of candles on their best day. That bastard had forced her over and over again to give him children in the hopes she created something like the family she came from, and he had failed at every turn, now he dared to invoke ...

Chapter 30- Doom Days: Shit hits the Fan

Dropping to the floor was a mistake, I thought, as the woman jumped right on top of me and began to bring the knife down for what Ould have been a decisive blow. I bucked like a bull, and with inhuman strength, I managed to flip us, so I as on top of her with my back. I rolled off of her in a second, missing the knife she tried to ram into my back. She sprung at me, still on the ground, and we began to struggle as I grabbed the hand holding the knife at her wrist.

“Avada—“ I hear...

Chapter 53- And so the Dragons Danced (Complete)

The feeling of the wind through my hair, the icicles shooting past me making death pass me by the barest gaps, the roar of the drums of war in my ears. This was what I had been born in this life for. I twisted and landed on the ground in a standard superhero pose, sending an arc of green flames that tossed the waterbenders and other soldiers near me off their feet. Still, it mattered little as more rushed towards me to replace them. I had shot down faster than my guard, and so I was the only ...

Chapter 49- One Thousand Hands (Complete)

I was right. I could feel the power as it flowed from my lips to my mouth, and then down the rest of my body. The tiny bits of nature chakra latched on to my own chakra, expanding it far beyond its natural limits. I didn’t need this enhancement to be permanent. I just needed a feeling, and I got it right then. The feeling of nature energy. The thing Kurama had me spending hundreds of clone hours working on had fallen straight into my lap, and now that I could feel it within my body, I could...
