Chapter Text

In a plain house that sat in Surrey, England is where we start this story. Where under the stairs in a small cleaning cupboard was a small magical boy. Little did he know that he was about to expirence something unworldly.

Harry pov

My stomach hurt so much that it felt like it had eaten itself long ago and now has start eating my other organs for substance. 

Tears fell from my cheeks but I tried to be quiet because if I woke up Aunt Petunia or Vernon they would be angry with me and that always led to hurt.

My eyesight was going fuzzy, and my head hurt. As my eyes closed I knew I was dying. 

Either because of the whack I received from the frying pan to the head, or never getting any food.

But I didn't wanna die, I wanted to live, so I prayed. 

'please' 
'Someone help me...'

I prayed .. nothing happened

Despair and hopelessness consumed me as I started to cry silently. 

Afterall who would answer the prayer of someone like me?

 I closed my eyes and a warmth surrounded me, and I suddenly had the realization that I was in heaven, a place I was always told I would never go due to my freakishness

I giggled 

'I proved Aunt Petunia wrong' was my last thought before I fell into a deep abyss

Benzaiten pov

Benzaiten the goddess of water, words, music, and love was simply playing her flute when she heard Harry's prayer.

She often received prayers from her living mortal descendents but this one concerned her greatly.

It reeked of a magical child in pain, that one should never endure and she could feel his life force fading. 

The goddess immediately was by his side and gasped at what what she saw.

Her descendent- no Harry was his name lying beaten and bloody in a cupboard. Rage that she hadn't felt since the old wars filled her as the house shook on its foundations.

It took a few seconds for her to calm,but only because the child needed her.

Benzaiten took him in her arms and placed a stasis charm on the life threatening wounds this is how she realised ..the extent of the damage. 

Benzaiten was so furious the house started to shake once again. The multiple pictures of the horrid family fell to the floor with loud crashes.

Yet no mortal awoke.

Benzaiten calmed herself and simply read all of her child's memories.. to help her make a decision. 

Even though it was very tempting to go up the stairs and murder the disgusting mortals sleeping upstairs to drag them to Izanami who would see them to proper punishment. 

Benzaiten made her decision the mortals and sorcerers did not care for her childe even though they had multiple resources and chances to do so.

So she would take him somewhere he would be safe, and get his wish of happiness.

Mainly in her home in fire country...but who could she intrust him to?

No one

This was a hard realization but a true one Benzaiten' knew shinobi villages damaged their prodigies to the point of no repair.

She would not let that happen to her last descendent. 

When the idea hit her for Harry to  become her shrine maiden as it would protect him.. however the responsibility would be great.

Benzaiten would have to ask her sister for assistance on the matter as well. 

But before she left, Benzaiten cursed the mortal family that hurt her childe to never again be allowed to drink, speak or receive anything but bad luck and unhappiness then disappeared.

Ame POV

When Ame-no-uzeme (nickname Ame) felt her sisters presence in her garden with a child no less to say she was shocked to say the least.

"Benzaiten! What brings you to my humble abode? Why on earth do you have a childe magician with you especially a Nekomata kit?"

She said after staring at them in shock, afterall Ame could sense that his inheritance was bound to happen as soon as his body healed.

'Most likely due to trama' Ame thought sadly as she approached them, therefore seeing Harry's condition. 

Benzaiten then explained that Harry was descended from her on his Maternal side, and felt his life force fading.

After describing the situation she found him in she expressed her thoughts of bringing him to Fire country in the Shinobi realm where he would be safe as her shrine maiden.

While Ame is sympathetic to Harrys plight, it had nothing to do with her.

Ame's reply is lack luster, confusion written all over her face as she brought a healing kit into being for the child.

" Benzaiten that is wonderful news but I fail to see how it concerns me".

"Well Ame do you not also have a shrine close to mine in the ninja nations?" Benzaiten pointed out amused wondering how quickly her sister would catch on.

Hoping she didn't have to spell it out for Ame who surprisingly could be quite dense sometimes.

Ame smiled then frowned "I did but it fell to disrepair after worshipers stopped coming because of the wars."

Benzaiten replied, "I was thinking Ame what if we gave this child our blessings and permission to be both of our Shrine maidens. With a high priestess as powerful as him, he will bring back many worshipers. Especially since he is destined to have many lovers who will aid him with restorating our place of power."

Benzaiten adds knowing that she had her sister, hook, line and sinker.

It was well known that Ame desired for her Temple in the ninja lands to be rebuilt so she can gossip about and ogle the handsome shinobi and samurai from those lands.

Ame squealed in delight, grabbing her sister's arms careful not to jostle to boy within them.

"That is a perfect idea! I think we should do it, it solves quite a few problems I've been having- especially my boredom!"

"Well there is no time to lose, we need to heal Harry ASAP and send him to the elemental nations so he can get started!"

Ame led them to her sacred pond that held healing herbs and flower petals while cooing over Harry who honestly was so adorable!

Ignoring the fact he obviously wasn't healthy,  and looked as if he was severely malnutritioned.

"Alright Benzaiten place him in the water and declare him as yours, after you bless him I shall do the same." Ame cheerfully said motioning for her sister to get on with it.

So Benzaiten carefully placed her descendent into the water keeping her hands under his back to keep him steady while they worked.

Ignoring the blood that mixed into the water surrounding the childe she spoke..

"あなたは私の巫女です。 私は私の名前で行動する権利を与え、私の願いと価値観を守るように要求します。私はあなたに斎主の称号を与えます。私はダンス、歌、音楽の能力をあなたに贈ります." *

Harry glowed blue as the magic took hold his injuries sealing before the goddesses eyes accompanied by two fluffy kitten ears that twitched and a black tail.

Now that he was healed the stasis charm broke, while the sleeping one held.

Harry grew slightly, his limbs stretching out so he looked more like a five year old than a three year old. His hair mimicked his body and spread out aroud his ethereal face.

However when the magic reached his forehead Harry groaned, and Benzaiten and Ame flinched back in horror when a dark mangled soul came out of his scar- screaming as it was destroyed. 

Ame concerned rand her hands that glowed over him as his scar healed making sure no trace of the parasite remained.

Benzaiten sighed in relief while questioning why such a thing was left in her child when there were magics wizards could use that removed and destroyed such things.

"Alright now that we got that taken care of its my turn." Ame says and takes Benzaiten's place supporting the child as she cast her own spell.

"あなたは私の巫女です。 私は私の名前で行動する権利を与え、私の願いと価値観を守るように要求します。私はあなたに斎主の称号を与えます。私はパワー、魅力、そして記憶であなたを贈ります."

After she finished her blessing Harry glowed gold before it faded back into his skin.

All of the sudden Harry twitched and let out an adorable sneeze that sounded like a kittens.

Ame giggled as did Benzaiten both cooing over the boy before Benzaiten realized the time. 

" Well that was quicker that I'd thought it would be.. Even though it pains me we should take him to shrine in fire country Ame it's about morning and Harry rises early. Not mentioning he cannot remain in a godly realm for too long." She said worried 

As a mortal being couldn't stay for more that 3 hours unless they were bound to another God or being made an immortal. 

Ame pouted and stuck out her tongue, " Fine Benzaiten, have it your way" she said glumly as if she had her favorite toy taken from her.

Ame's next sentence betraying that she was thinking along the lines of her sister.

"I had my servants prepare some clothes and necessities Harry will need so you don't have to worry about it. We need the child in ship shape so I can have my parties start again!"

"Ame don't get ahead of yourself ok he's only six.."

Benzaiten murmurs remembering the wild parties past priestess had thrown in her sister's honor.

Taking Harry from the healing pool, and into her arms after drying him with a wave of her hand.

Ame handing her a set of white robes to dress him in.

After Harry was properly taken care of and groomed they appeared at their shrine in a flash of light.

The shrine was large but covered in dust and hollow as a cave.

The sound of their footsteps echoing amoung the many halls.

Benzaiten and Ame went into the maidens rooms, going down the end of the hall where the high priestess room was located.

After seeing what horrible state it was in they both sighed, Ame waving her hand so all the dust and dirt miraculously disappeared.

Benzaiten then put Harry on the bed she created after banishing the broken and dirty one. Pulling the covers up to his chin, breathing in his scent as she kisses his forehead. 

Just in time as Ame's servants had finished putting Harry's belongings in a new magically enhanced chest next to the bed. 

With the fixed and cleaned closet, bathroom, and kitchen being made ready for use by the new temple spirits Ame summoned and appointed. 

Ayako and Asako recommend they leave some food to last him a day or two, only for Benzaiten to hand them a bag of food from Harry's world.

She was one step ahead of them, but she was pleased at their for thought, her elder sister had chosen the servants well.

Ame  put down a letter from them on top of a book that would have everything he would need to survive and thrive contained inside. 

They both used their magic to make the book while Asako and Ayako readied the rest of the shrine shrine for Harry's use.

For example the book explained the different dynamics of this world mainly alpha and omega stuff which is important to the boy who was an omega.

Survivalist things like what plants are safe to eat, How to go forward restoring the temple, the history of the temple and the different ceremonies a high priestess is to perform, explanations of how to do magic and ninjutsu, along with the information about the lands in the elemental nations, and their cultures.

When it was time to leave Ame and Benzaiten looked down at Harry both wishing they could stay but couldn't due to breaking enough of the rules as it was in regards to the young Nekomata kit.

The only thing they could do was watch over him closely from their prospective realms and offer guidance when asked.

When Ame dissapeared In a beam of light Benzaiten hesitated, bending down to kissed Harry's brow where a small circle of glowing kanji appeared before dissapearing.

悟性, 先見者,力.

Benzaiten was gone 

Just as Harry opened his glowing emeralds eyes.

Chapter Text

I woke up and saw two pairs of glowing black eyes staring at me from the foot of my bed. I screamed and fell out of bed and ran to the door to get away "wait mistress wait!"

One of them said but I was still panicking because the door wouldn't open !! Both slowly approached me with their palms up to show me that they meant no harm.

I took a closer look at them they looked like twin cats that only walked on two legs and wore kimono's. "Who are you?"
I asked to which the second one said" I'm Asako and my sister is Ayako we are spirits of the shrine!".

I breathed a sigh of relief I read about shrine spirits yesterday in the book the goddesses gave me I honestly was hoping I would receive some. Remembering my manners I bowed in greeting and said "it's nice to meet you Asako and Ayako I apologize for my reaction earlier ,you startled me". '

'Don't worry about it kid , we were the ones that entered with asking" Ayako said.

" Yeah Ayako's right my lady we apologize for scaring you" then they both bowed. I gaped for a second "guys please you don't have to bow or anything just treat me normally ok?"

They looked at each other "if that's what you want then sure kiddo but you are our mistress so we will call you so" Ayako said.

I huffed guessing that's as good as I was going to get when I then clapped my hands together. " Alright well then let's go get some breakfast from the berry bush just outside of the shrine and then clean the court yard ok? And then maybe we will have time to start up the garden again since summer has barely started."
Both of them agreed and we went and did just that.

Time skip

I sat on the shrines steps taking a break from working on the courtyard for half of the day it was probably mid afternoon based on the sun's position.

I spent the whole day sweeping,clearing debris,and pulling weeds from the courtyard. Having magic helped with the heavier lifting but since I was barely a beginner it didn't help much.

Ayako and Asako said that during my break they were going to work on the garden we had in the shrine . So to pass time I went to go get the magical book of survival ..at least that's what I called it since it didn't have a title.

I then turned to the page that had instructions on how to build a fish trap I grabbed some twigs and rope and started on step one. I knew we couldn't survive on berries forever so I would have to learn these things sooner or later. I finished rather quickly and overall it turned out ok with minimal mistakes made along the way when out of curiosity I went to the magic section of contents.

I flipped through some chapters just out of curiosity when something caught my eye. 'The types of Summoners' the chapter read but I was captivated by the third page that was about summoners who could summon their soulmates... I don't know why but my instincts were screaming at me that this was important.

I looked at the sundial that was in my window and realised that my break was long enough. I went out to the garden where Asako and Ayako were planting seeds and saplings for food in the newly cleared garden. "Asako Ayako during my break I made a fish trap I'm going to put it in the nearby river ok. So we can have that sushi you were talking about tonight."

Ayako meows in joy while Asako frets " ok mistress but take your dagger with you and be careful ... maybe I should leave Ayako to the garden and come with you-"
I cut her off. " Asako that isn't necessary the river isn't that far I've been there before just yesterday I'll be very very careful".

Asako sighs then just says "alright you may go but you do remember how to summon us should you be in danger right mistress?"
" Yes Asako I simply pull onto our bond which will bring you to me" she nods her head then starts to shoo me away saying how it was going to be dark so if I wanted to catch food I should hurry.
Laughing I went down the trail that led to the river.

Time skip...

About an hour later as I was taking my full fish trap out of the water I heard multiple people headed my way , and I heard muffled crying.

My stomach dropped and I knew something was wrong I quickly put the trap back into the water and crawled up in to the closest tree in what Ayako called my stealth mode.

My eyes adjusted to see better and my tail froze as I saw three Kumo ninja come running out of the undergrowth one had a bag on his shoulder that was wiggling and was the source of the crying.

With out even thinking my hand lashed out to the leader while I snarled "Petrificus Totalus". He immediately went down and with speed I didn't know I had I snatched the bag and ran towards the nearest village I heard them pursuing me though the trees their scents indicating rage and irritation.

I sped up but a Second later something hit me in my side and I went flying and hit the floor hard.. I was kicked down. The bag rolled and opened in the struggle and a girl no older than three with pale almost white eyes popped out. I grabbed her and put her behind me as I growled at the alpha and beta that approached as I pulled out my knife.

This made her squeal with fright until I said " s-stay behind me I'll protect you" she nodded but continued to shake. The alpha laughed after he caught my scent " what do we have hear a little omega trying to save the day one with ears at that".
He laughs " this will be a piece of cake" he starts to walk towards us and I panic because I have been pulling on Asako and Ayako's summons and they weren't coming!

I must have been to far from the shrine and they to weak to make the jump. When suddenly the beta spoke up " Daichi wait I recognize that pendant ..it's the goddesses Benzaiten and Ame's seal!"

The alpha froze then shook his head "it doesn't Matter that shrine is in ruins she must have found it somewhere among the river" he then came at me with his tanto I blocked it then he kneed me in my side and as I fell he hit me to the side.

I tasted blood and knew I had broken something when he turned to the girl everything froze and suddenly I felt a bond click in place.

I screamed as loud as I could "GAROU!!"

There was a second of silence when a man appeared with silver hair and gold eyes covered in blood he looked around in shock when his eyes met mine and all I said was " help me please.." and I blacked out

 Garou's POV

All I remember was just defeating the A class hero's that tried to defeat me when I was suddenly in another forest. 

Where a alpha and beta seemed to be attacking a omega with beautiful green eyes and long dark hair.

I knew as soon as I got a whiff of his scent that he was MINE! When he spoke it was the most beautiful thing I ever heard in my life, and it would always remember so.

So when the alpha in the ninja costume went after him .

I lost it I hit him so hard that my hand went through his stomach. Blood so much of it that it stained my hair and splattered on the ground.

The other little girl ran towards my mate, curled into a ball and covered her eyes. I should have felt guilty for killing in front of a child but all I felt at the moment was God awful rage.

I then went after the beta that had a small knife like weapon and knocked him out.

I was going to kill him when my mates whine of pain made me flash to his side and bring him into my arms gently.

I breathed in his scent and it was like I was finally home, he then whispered " mate " put his head over my heart and infront of my eyes started to heal.

Bruises and cuts slowly closing leaving no trace behind on baby smooth skin.

I gasped suddenly feeling my energy draining from my body.

I realized my energy was waning somehow because he was feeding off of it !

Then his eyes opened fully and he raised his head and said " hi I'm Harri its nice to meet you thank you for saving me".

From that point on, he was mine...and I his.

Harri pov

I Felt someone warm pick me up and they smelt so good I continued to smell his sent when i just knew "mate".

  I whispered as I used his energy to heal and I opened my eyes and saw the man from earlier holding me in his arms and said " hi I'm Harri  its nice to meet you thank you for saving me".

I wiggled to be let down and I was  immediately turned to the little girl and said  "are you ok?"

She nodded and I asked her for her name and her reply was " h-h-hinata"

" Well hinata we have to go to my shrine to be safe so want to come"? I asked my head tilted in a cute way.

Hinata hesitated  then shaking warily took my hand and a gold bond surrounded  us and as she stared in amazement  as a lion tattoo appeared  on her hand. I sighed  and simply  said "let's go home and I'll explain  everything  there".

Chapter Text

Harry POV
As soon as we got to the river Asako and Ayako answered my summons and promptly freaked out as soon as they saw the state of Garou and I . Asako " o my poor mistress what happened !! You only went to the river! I never should have,- o who is this?" She said after catching sight of Hinata hiding behind me.

" Ayako  Asako this is Hinata and Garou ..my mate"
Ayako whistled as she got a look at him " whoo you sure know how to pick the good looking ones don't ya" I cut them both off " you guys can you just teleport us please! My mate is injured even though he has been hiding it and we need to contact the Hyuga and let them know we have one of their clan members" Hinata jumped in surprise.

Then said ''how did you-" I just looked at her and raised an eyebrow as I replied '' it's kinda common knowledge" .

I then held my hand to Ayako while Hinata took Asako's and I took Garou's who was holding my fish trap full of fish in his other.

I smiled at him and he blushed when we arrived in the courtyard.

I turned to Asako " will you please take Hinata to the dining room and care for her as well as getting her point of view on the events that happened, I expect to have the Hyuga here soon".

Asako nodded and took Hinata to the direction of the dining room.

I then gave the fish to Ayako and told her to make dinner .I looked at Garou who was still looking at his surroundings and jumped when I called his name. ''Garou let's get you in the bath so I can heal your wounds and then you can ask me all the questions you want ok".

He nodded so I Led him to my bathroom.

Konoha ninja Pov
"Lord Hiashi they went this way but it's strange .." Hiashi looked at him sharply basically asking the tracker nin to get to the point. When the nin said ''Hinata's scent overlaps like she came back this way but it's entangled with another omegas and a alpha. Obviously there was a altercation and the trail leads to the only shelter within miles which is the abandoned shrine .. as well as the enemy beta being from our Anbu.."

There was a depressing silence after that implementation.
'' then let us go to the shrine" Hiashi commanded. 
And so the Hyuga , tracker ninja and the Anbu Dog started heading to the shrine.

Harry POV
As soon as Garou was in the bath be questioned me " where am I and how did I get here?"

I calmly explained he was at my shrine in fire country and that I used a summoner spell to bring him here because he is one of my soulmates and I was in peril.

He blushed for a second then looked down then looked at me before asking " what are you any way and is it even possible for us to be bonded , when you are only a child?" .

I chuckled before replying " Yes I am a child but not a mortal one I am a Nekomata and it isn't that uncommon for my people to meet or bond to there mates at my age". 

I then let him know I was going to shower ,and headed to do so.

As soon as I said that he turned and looked at the wall so I could get in and out.

As soon as I got out the shower I called Ayako and asked her to bring me my ceremonial robes they would have to do for now and a outfit for Garou. My outfit was a black silky kimono that was tightly fit but long and some soft mesh for pants. Garou came out of the bathroom and I stared he was BUILT .

He tried to take his clothes and go back to the bathroom and treat his own injuries before I asked him what he was doing . I then guilt tripped or strong armed him into letting me disinfect and wrapped the last of his injuries.

Who knew that my puppy eyes Ayako has been telling me to use actually worked. As I wrapped him up he tensed Everytime my skin brushed up against his I frowned. He must have the same problems I do with being touch starved. He got dressed in a black shirt with the Potta Crest on the back and gold trousers. "Garou - I have something to ask you - that is if you want to but I was thinking - iwouldlikeyoutobemyconsortandfamiliar!" He held up his hands '' kid slow down I don't even know what your asking now what is it?"

I took a deep breath before continuing. 

" I said I would like you to be my Consort and familiar basically as my familiar you would just protect me and the shrine and well in this world you would need a title to do trading in some of the villagers so if you would be my Consort you would have one..." I looked down afraid he was going to turn me down after all he seemed upset to be here and -and..

 A hand lifted my chin up breaking my spiraling thoughts and green eyes met gold matched with a wicked smile " I would love to be your familiar and I'm already your bonded so I don't even want to say no to ya kid" I breathed a sigh in relief.

Not wasting time I kissed him on the lips to make our familiar bond ..which he was not expecting because he jumped back all the way to the other side of the room looking at me as if I said he had to give me his soul. He covered his mouth " WHAT the hell was that !!" I started to laugh and explained .

" Hell Harri you could have at least given me a warning" he muttered  and looked at the tattoo of the wolf that appeared on his shoulder .

After which I felt seven people cross the shrines protective barrier that Asako and Ayako helped me raise. Garou cocked his head to the side like he could sense them as well . I huffed " well that must be Hinata's family let's go greet them alright and let them know what happened.'" I then walked into the hallway with Garou toward the blessings room where I as high priest try to answer prayers with the help of the goddesses.

I then asked Asako to bring Hinata and her family to the room which was down the hall from the courtyard.

Hiashi pov
As we arrived to the shrine it was obvious that it was no longer abandoned . As soon as we entered the courtyard a cat appeared walking on its hind legs like a human! All of us turned to it and before I could question the summons it spoke " I am Asako one of the caretakers of the shrine welcome .My mistress wishes me to show you the way to the blessings room where your daughter waits".

She then quickly tuns down the hall to the left and led us to the room knowing that it e was of the essence. As soon as the door opened Hinata ran into her father's arms babbling through tears. Hiashi held Hinata close as he sat on one of the cushions offered checking her for injuries while the others studied the other occupants . Dog himself had to check his surprise as the similarities between himself and the other silver haired man was baffling.

But when his eyes fell upon the omega his breath left his lungs ..he was the most beautiful thing in the universe and was suddenly the only thing that mattered was him- Kakashi quickly stopped thinking and blocked his scent completely knowing that he couldn't bond or even introduce himself to his mate during Anbu duty.
Harri  then cleared his throat upon his cushioned chair on the raised platform to get everyone's attention.

Harri POV

" Welcome everyone to my shrine I am the new high priestess of Benzaiten and Ame-no-uzume. I and my Consort Hatake Garou"- for some reason everyone jolted when I said his name- " saved Hinata from her kidnappers this evening you are welcome to take her home and know the Hyuga may always have shelter here in the future" .

Hiashi had his political poker face on and asked " and the price of the services you have provided?"       " The only thing I ask for is to be friends with your Heir and for you to come and encourage others to come worship at the shrine as well to read this letter at the next council CLAN meeting do not read it to anyone other than clan heads it contains .. potentially harmful information".

Hiashi looked sceptical and cautious and said " very well both wishes shall be granted , know that you have my thanks for saving my daughter but do not attempt to make demands later on because you shall not receive them". I nodded and as soon as they arrived they were gone (but not before I gave the Anbu a letter for the Hokage warning of Danzo) probably to report to the other clans or the Hokage I hope that Kakashi isn't too shocked about Garou after all I can see familial bonds between them.

 Immediately after, exhausted from the days events I went to bed dragging Garou with me where we fell asleep wrapped around one another. 

Chapter Text

Harri POV
                       The next day I woke up in Garou's arms It was so warm so I snuggled closer and put my nose in the crook of his neck. I break in and his scent was woodsy and had a hint of sweetness I couldn't remember the name of.

He must have been woken by my cuddling because he sat up abruptly with me held to his chest like a sticker. Garou then started to check our surroundings like a wild animal would jump up at any Moment and he was just getting more tensed as the seconds ticked by when I spoke "Garou , we are fine"- I ran my hands through his hair and released calming pheromones- " we are safe you took care of all the bad guys that wanted to hurt us, and even if you didn't I know you will always protect me big bad alpha".

I teased while poking his cheek he smiled and relaxed " I know that ya damned brat . It's just ya seem to only go to the park and end up in life threatening trouble". He got out of the bed with me in my arms and went to the dining room and sat me down. As I pouted I turned to Ayako ".

"Ayako tell Garou that I don't attract trouble by breathing! It's not true right?" I turned on puppy eyes to the max . Ayako snickering said " I'm sorry kid I'm going to half to agree with Garou this time- Ow!" She was cut off by Asako who kicked her in the shin.

"Don't listen to Ayako mistress you are perfect as you are yes you had an eventful day yesterday but that doesn't Mean you attract trouble."

I looked at Garou who was eating his Miso soup with fish and soba and stuck my tongue out at him then had a victory wiggle. Garou just rolled his eyes and continued eating until I asked Garou " Garou can you please teach me to fight...I just think it would help a lot if I could actually help if we are ever in danger again..".

He looked at me as if he was seeing through me and spoke " alright I'll teach you self defense but know that you are going to have to work hard because with your body type I'd like to focus on your endurance and speed". I hugged him tightly and squealed
He peeled me off of him and told me to go get ready in a grouchy voice.

Hurriedly I ran to the shower with Asako yelling after me to be careful, since I have fallen on my face once before. 

Time skip

                           I took a break from the katas I had been practising with Garou's watchful eye making sure I did it right. Especially since I was doing them with my dagger when I felt someone pass through the shrines barrier. I stopped and looked at Garou who was already walking towards my bedroom we quickly showered off the dust and dirt and went to the blessings room.

Garou once again stood in front of me on the left acting as a guard in black pants and a gray shirt with the Hatake crest on it. I was wearing a dress that shows my stomach and has long sleeves the end of them dyed dark green like the bottom of my dress like my eyes. Garou almost had an aneurysm when he saw me and demanded I change saying it was inappropriate when Asako said to worshipers of the shrine wished to speak to me after they gave offerings to the goddesses ,so that's why Garou and I were in the blessings room waiting.

The two worshipers were children around my age one a boy with dark gray hair and Uchiha like features and a girl with dark skin and red hair  the bot was a beta and the girl a alpha. The boy was wearing a Anbu like outfit but the girl was wearing worn clothes that were too big for her. I smiled at them as gently as I could before welcoming them.

" Welcome to the Megami no Jinja how may I bless you today" . The girl stepped forward and boldly Said " I ask that you stop the kids from the red district,,and the orphanages from going missing and go give me asylum from konoha!". I sat up straight and shared a look with Garou I then used my magic to look at the kids chakra and realized that the boy had a seal on him.

                                  " You boy with the silver hair step forward want is your name?" " Shin " he replied.

" show me your seal, and then you can tell me what you wish". I said getting straight to the point.

He looked shocked then it was gone so quickly that if you haven't been looking for it you never would have noticed. He hesitated then opened his mouth and on his tongue was the disgusting seal Ame told me about in my dreams.. I hated it almost as much as I hated the caged Bird seal.

I summoned a book I was gifted by my grandmother ripped off a piece of paper and walked to shin and asked " do you want me to remove the seal? And don't worry about THAT man finding out you had it removed because it continues to function on the paper and that man will be dealt with by the morrow ". He nodded and I motioned him to open his mouth I then put the paper on his tongue and put some magic into it and Said " release".

The seal was then transferred to the paper which I then gave to Ayako to put in a safe place (aka where the proof against Danzo was) I went and sat on the floor and had them do the same and asked shin " now what do you ask of the goddesses?"  " I ask that you save me and my brother from konoha and give us asylum" .

I felt Garou sit down on my left " and what do you offer for these ' blessings' ?" he asked shin threateningly I elbowed him to stop him from scaring the children, it was like punching rock.

Then the  girl spoke up " we can work here at the shrine and help you get more worshipers! "  I smiled

'' that sounds like a great idea ..by the way what is your name "?  " I'm Karui ". 

I smiled and continued to speak.

'' that' s a beautiful name, now here is what I want you to do Karui I want you to go around the red district, the orphanages,and where the homeless live and gather all who wish to leave Konoha and you may bring them here to be monks, Priestesses, and runners for the shrine and if they ever wish to leave I would never stop them. We have enough room here to house at least 500 people and I plan on making more room as this will soon be the capital shrine. We will meet the group at the  road behind konoha where there will be transportation waiting to bring all. We need to time this perfectly, and everyone knows the back way out of the village right. Shin I will give you the seal release paper so all who wish to defect from Danzo can do so, and I will meet you at the same place as the others." 

I looked to Garou for approval and he had no objections I could see when shin voiced one '' what if Danzo tries to follow" Garou then laughed " you don't have to worry about that kid I have been itching to fight this elder ...everyone keeps on saying how dangerous he is maybe he will actually entertain me" with a creepy smile on his face killing intent seeping from him.

I slapped him upside the head  '' don't do that you are scaring them! " I smiled at them trying to calm them down '' well i hope that answers that question and just as a bonus I'll  be there helping the sick and injured. And the time we will leave Konoha will be 11 pm so everyone has enough time to prepare. Alright?".

Shin and Karui looked at one another and nodded. I then gave them a meal before that left because they were so skinny and then told Asako and Ayako of what was happening. " Asako shouldn't we get more shrine spirits once we hahe more people here worshipping at the shrine?" She nodded I hummed my curiosity sated.They then started to prepare for the large number of residence while me and Garou prepared the 'transportation' while Garou got to work on the wagons and pulled some out of the shed I got my magical book out and started summoning Threstrals.

     That morning in the clan head meeting..

       Shikaku stared at the letter as if it said his son was being held for ransom and he was thinking of ways to torture the kidnappers in horrendous ways. Then Fugaku read it and his sharingan activated with his rage. After all the heads read the letter the First one to speak in the tense silence was Inoichi  '' This Priestess has given us a gift by giving you this letter Hiashi , but now we need to figure out a way to remove Danzo and his festering disease!" 

Shikaku then said " we can't just barge in carelessly, Hiashi you said that she sent the letter to the Hokage?" Hiashi nodded " well then he probably is working on it right now though I think I and Fugaku should go to the tower now and speak with him now on the matter and give him our letter and help to deal with Danzo" then the meeting dispersed.

Back to Harri summoning Threstrals ..

         After I successfully summoned the stallion of a Threstral herd and got to have them as a summons. I went to write a letter to the Hyuga clan head telling him of our plans tonight and asking for his assistance if there are issues cough*Danzo* cough so they could seize him for questioning along with the loyal root.

I put a rock that would glow bright red and vibrate if I was in danger of never seeing the light of dawn. Then I sent it off and as I did I fell to the ground in agony two new bonds appeared very suddenly that were connected to my soul and they were about to snap!

I screamed in agony as I tugged as hard I could to bring my mates to me. Garou was suddenly there pulling me to his chest as wailed and flailed.  Suddenly there was two men  and a Group of Tengus. But all I cared about was the man with the spear through his heart and the other that looks like he was electrocuted with Tengus surrounding him.

For the first time I'm my life  I used my Goddess command voice '' GET AWAY FROM MY MATES!! ASAKO TAKE US TO MY BATHS!"  She obeyed because we were suddenly in my bathroom and I immediately told Garou to start the healing bath while I ran to my worse off mate and pulled out the spear and immediately put my hands over the wound. My hands glowed green as I tried to heal my mate and I felt tears fall down my cheeks.  " Please please don't leave me " I kissed his lips breathing my life force into him .

I startled when Garou put his hand on my shoulder and helped me put both into the bath with all sorts of healing agents when I put my hands in the water along with Garou's and we both chanted the healing spell over and over.

When I felt like I was going to pass out  I stopped , and breathed a sigh of relief because both of my mates where breathing and no longer pale as ghosts. I stood legs shaking as I helped Garou take my other mates out of the bath wrapping the few injuries they still had to prevent infection and laid them on out bed. I collapsed into Garou's arms from the stress of the situation when Asako came inti the room flustered. " Mistress !  The Tengus keep asking after their leader and are threatening to barge in ! What do I -"

  I cut her off exasperated. 

'' first calm down  take them to the blessings room and I'll explain everything-'' I was then cut off by Garou.

  " no you are exhausted you need food then rest I'll talk to them." " How about you Carry me to the blessings room and feed me while I explain?" I offered as a alternative. He grunted which I guess meant yes because we head in the direction of the blessing room. 

                 We walked into the blessings room and were immediately bombarded by questions from everyone at once until " SHUT UP! My mate is exhausted and drained you will be quiet or I'll kick all of you out."

Garou growled as we sat down in front. I put my hand on his arm to calm him down and then explained to the Tengus how they got here and where they are as well as if their chief was ok.

Most of them were happy that their leader was my mate while others were worried about living in this world. I then explained the plan to rescue the orphans and others and they agreed to help prepare. Garou then took me to our room and put me down in-between my new mates and the last thing I Heard was a gruff voice,

"Take a nap damn brat".

Chapter Text

The last thing Jirou remembered was confessing to Nanami after saving her from the lightning beast. So when his eyes opened and he saw a black head of fluff with cat ears on his chest to say he was surprised is a understatement. Then he smelt a scent that called to his very being , it smelled like the Thousand year old Sakura tree and the wind. He knew instinctively that this was his life mate, he pulled his mate closer as he reached for the other half of his soul.

When the bond cemented he felt so many emotions joy,euphoria, and worry when his mate woke up. Beautiful green eyes stared into his being as if reading his very thoughts, when someone cleared their throat. " This is very ...riveting to see but since he is my mate as well care to hand him over so we can cement our bond"? The man who spoke had chocolate brown hair and piercing gold eyes with a very fine face that held a touch of feminity .

I frowned when the angel in my lap jumped into the other man's arms and breathed in his scent as he did to me just a moment ago. " Both of you are awake I'm so happy you are ok..." Then he pulled back and blushed '' where are my manners in case you didn't already know my name is Harri Potta and I'm a Nekomata. Jirou this is Diarmuid my other mate and we are in the land of fire in the Megami no Jinja shrine ...you are here because I pulled you both from your worlds because you were dying." He looked as if he was going to cry and a lone tear escaped that I gently wiped away.

" Also Jirou I may have accidentally pulled your clan with you they were quite adamant about seeing you as soon as you woke up the pushovers".

His lip came out in a pout and Diarmuid chuckled '' well they have been pulled into a whole new world they just need the stability and confidence of their leader" he says while combing his fingers through harri's hair.

Harri looked at the clock and panicked surprising Diarmuid and I . We both just stared as he threw on an outfit mumbling about saving innocent people from a evil prejudiced dictator in an hour. I grabbed him by his collar and set him down " Harri what is going on who do you have to save"?

He took a deep breath and explained that in a nearby village a man who goes by the name Danzo has been secretly been building his army against the Hokage who is a chief like me and has been kidnapping and harming children and adults of the village. And that he was supposed to meet a group of refugees and bring them to the shrine while Danzo is taken care of so that he can't use them as hostages or something similar.

As Diarmuid and I thought in silence after hearing the details of the plan we looked at one another and I told our mate " very well we shall accompany you me and my clan can give air support while Diarmuid acts as your guard,". " I agree with Jirou Harri that leaves me to engage anyone that is pursuing us without having to worry about your safety".

I looked at the man who appeared in the doorway who has silver hair and instinctively put Harri behind me when Harri put his hand on my arm " this is my other mate Garou Hatake ,meet Jirou and Diarmuid."

Garou shook hands with Jirou while Diarmuid simply pulled him into hug muttering about Alpha's and their stupid posturing (Diarmuid is a beta they can't all be alpha's) . And started to get ready for the rescue mission.

Harri POV
After I made Diarmuid and Jirou my familiars ( Jirou about died again due to the INDECENCY of such actions!) I summoned the lead mare of the threstrals Saiya and told her that I needed about six threstrals per wagon/ carriage she poofed away and returned with 30 friends.

Including my mates,Asako,Ayako,and I strapped them to the 5 wagons each were enlarged enough on the inside to hold a hundred people.

The plan was to have Asako ,Ayako and I taking care of the people In the carriages while my mates acted as our escorts along with ex root members if they are Willing to help. And if Danzo or bandits gave us trouble the threstrals were told to take off into they sky so we don't have to worry about civilian casualties.

But everything was Ready to go so I climbed onto Jirou's back and traced the Raven tattoo that appeared after we cemented the bond he shivers and glares at me " Harri stop distracting me I need to be focused this is a serious matter." But the blush on his cheek as he lectures me make me stick my tongue out and laugh.

Garou then gives the order to take off and Jirou takes off with a flap of his wings his clan flying in formation. I laughed in joy as the wind caressed my cheeks Diarmuid was whooping loudly as he hitched a ride on a stallion called Storm.

Jirou shook his head at us saying we were acting like fools but I know he was smiling then suddenly I was snatched by Garou who was riding River and Jirou's yells at us were lost to the wind as Garou and I laughed at him. I looked into his eyes and wished we were always like this..

Time skip to the village rescue

We arrived at the back gate at 1030 early than the set time just in case something happened when Karui showed up at 1050 leading a group of children from infants to 18 years old i I turned to Garou " I told you we couldn't be too early" which he just rolled his eyes at me in reply.

Karui was telling the makeshift leader of the group

'' see kabuto I told you they would be here!" Kabuto looks at the carriages and frowns " yes they are here but it's seems like they don't have enough room for our group alone so let us go back before anyone realized we are gone and pretend this never-" I cut him off " Kabuto was it ? How about you check the inside of the carriages before you deem them unfit ? After all you never know what one is capable of."

His eyes snapped to mine and a bond snapped in place. He froze then breathed in then out slowly as if he was calming himself a boy with a birthmark on his nose looked at Kabuto worried. Kabuto went to the nearest carriage and opened it and everyone saw a large room with food on a never ending table with cushions and Asako waiting to greet them.

Those closest gasped In shock kabuto looked at me in shock and suspension and I put my hand on his shoulder and said in his mind through the link

' please trust me Kabuto when I say I hold no ill will for any of you if anything you are helping me more than I you, one thing I never will or can do is lie .. especially to one of my mates'. Kabuto jumped and tensed when I first touched him and started helping all the orphans into the carriage where Asako was working in a frenzy feeding,clothing,and giving first aid to those who needed it.

I assisted until the next group showed up ,Karui said the those from the homeless district would be the next to arrive then those from the red district after them. As I was no longer needed I left the carriage thinking ' only 97 orphans not bad' my mates looked at me probably waiting for another to ask the question on their minds.

Diarmuid was the first to break the silence " so is the kid leader another mate because we felt you talk to him through the mate bond". ' kinda ' I said through our bonds ' the bond isn't cemented like ours so either of us could break it ..'

' what pray tell would happen if the bond is broken' Jirou asked  and after a secondi replied hesitantly.

' it depends on how strong it is if he broke it now I would probably just be bed bound for a couple days but if we were together for a long period of time and the bond is strong and one of us tried to sever it ..I would be hollow for months'.

There was an oppressive silence. 

When conversation was cut off when the next group arrived.

The leader of the homeless was a woman Chizue who could not have been older than 35 she was as suspicious and more sceptical than kabuto but as soon as she saw the inside of the carriage she looked at me as if trying to read my intentions and must have liked what she saw and nodded at me and helped her people into the carriage.

I once again assisted Ayako with feeding and first aide but some people actually need hospital care so I had to use my magic to heal or put them in stasis until we reached the shrine. I did the routine over again for those from the red district.

And then it was just a waiting game for shin and the ex root members ,I started to get nervous and started to nibble on my nails when finally a group of people appeared in front of us in ninja attire.

Then I realized some were injured so something must have gone wrong shin himself was holding his side where blood was seeping out. " How long before Danzo is on our ass mr___?"

I snapped at the Root member closest to me while Garou commanded Asako to take shin and his little brother sai (who wouldn't stop staring at me) as well as all injured ex root members into the healing baths in the last carriage. The one I talked to replied "about 20, minutes max 30 and my name is Fu yamanaka " he lifted his mask and I bonded with him as soon as I met his I cussed.

" Fu I want everyone among your platoon that is NOT injured and willing to run ahead of the carriages to make sure we have no bumps ok we can talk when we reach the temple"! He nodded as I called out to everyone " ALRIGHT time to go we will go on foot as planned while Jirou and his clan provide air support but I want the threstrals to take off at the hint of trouble ok Saiyan"? She nodded and the carriages took off right as the last was leaving I heard someone yelling " WAIT ! WAIT FOR ME!" .

Diarmuid cussed and I turned and saw a small boy Wearing a white shirt with the Uzumaki swirl on it he had bright blue eyes and blond hair .

I realized I couldn't leave him and made a decision. 

I jumped off Jirou's back who tried to snatch me back and i used my speed to reach the boy . As soon as our hands touched I bonded with him

' sonofabitch' I thought as Garou was there throwing both of us over his shoulder and running full speed to catch up .

Garou tossed me to Diarmuid when we caught up. We kept going at this pace for 20 going to 30 minutes when we received a signal from above from the Tengus that we were being pursued .

And that they were gaining quickly the threstrals took off into the air with half of the Tengus forming a protective formation around them right at the moment root members caught up to the rear that consists of Garou, Jirou,Diarmuid,the blond boy,and some ex root members. The root members threw themselves straight into battle with Jirou and his warriors who were fighting with sickles, swords,smoke bombs and wind.

4 of the root members went for me and the boy when Garou shoved him at Diarmuid and engaged them with his brass knuckles I gifted him. Diarmuid then continued to run with us over his shoulder the boy was shaking from shock of seeing such things and I grabbed his hand and squeezed it he looked at me with teary blue eyes and said in his mind ' everything is going to be fine Naruto, its nice to meet you I'm Harri head priestess of the Megami no Jinja shrine and your bonded mate'

' H-HOW are you doing that Dattebayo ! Its nice to meet ya I'm Naruto Uzamaki And what do you mean by-' he was cut off as we were snapped to the side as Diarmuid was forced to doge some kunai when suddenly Danzo was in front of us.

I panicked a little and Diarmuid put us down behind him and took out his spear standing protectively in front of us. Danzo looked pissed " how dare you interfere with something that doesn't concern you witch !"  He snarled at me.

Before he could continue his bad guy speech Garou was charging him from behind and Diarmuid from the front . Then they were moving so fast I couldn't see or comprehend who was winning when suddenly Diarmuid was sent flying after a explosion and went through two trees .

I screamed his name and ran to him while I heard Garou cry out in rage. When I pulled Diarmuid on his back I nearly was hysterical he had a huge burn on his stomach and legs that were blistering and the smell almost made me puke.

I put my hand on one which caused him to grunt in pain and started healing him ' JIROU!! ' I screamed through the link ' we need you Diarmuid is down and Garou needs help fighting Danzou' .

His reply was full of frustration ' I am being held back by his forces I'll be there as soon as I can ' .

I just continued to heal Diarmuid as Garou and Danzo's battle continued . Naruto gave me a hug and I realized I was letting out a distress signal out to all my mates I stopped while unknowingly Naruto gave me more energy to heal Diarmuid.

As I healed his more dangerous wounds I told Naruto to stay with him and peeked out at the fight and my stomach dropped Garou was losing..I felt him through the bond and saw he was affected by poisons I immediately started to give him my energy which helped him fight the poison in his system.

When a root members joined the fight he must have escaped Jirou's net panicking I sent a cutting curse at him but out of the corner of my eye I saw another heading to Garou when the death blow was blocked by none other that Kakashi Hatake.

Kakashi POV

I had received a summons from the Hokage late at night which is pretty unusual so I knew something was up I grabbed my Icha Icha and headed to the tower when I got there Shikaku,Choza,inoichi,Tsume,Fugaku,and Hiashi were waiting.

Shikoku them pulled out a letter as did Hiashi and told the Hokage Danzo's treasonous ways when the Hokage decided to have him arrested along with root and have them questioned and the Hokage was assigning them the mission along with others. When Hiashi received a letter from a raven who knocked and said seriously. '' the high priestess is apparently accepting refugees from konoha right now and is asking for my assistance if Danzo follows supposedly this gem is supposed to glow and vibrate if she's in danger."

Then the stone started to glow , Kakashi then heard his mates distress call and moved he was out the window towards the sound that would lead him to his mate he heard the Hokage order the others to go with him and felt them following.

When he arrived he saw his mate takes root member down and saw the other slip by and attack his distant relative he blocked the sword and killed the root member and after sharing a glance with Garou fought Danzo together.

Hari POV
After Kakashi arrived I breathed a sigh of relief and returned to Naruto who was try to convince Diarmuid to stay down. I put my hands on his shoulder and pushed him down he winced and I playfully said " if I can defeat the mighty Diarmuid then so can everyone else now sit still."

Then Hiashi was there helping Diarmuid stand and we met in the clearing where Jirou was waiting and root members were getting rounded up. As soon as Jirou saw me he pulled me into his arms and breathed in my scent deeply and said " never again, never again will I allow you to do something this foolish" I just nodded and put my head in his chest.

I was then passed to Garou and got my cuddles in when I heard Jirou arguing with a Uchiha and a Yamanaka. I realised they wished to take the ex root members into custody to questioning when I put my foot down . " I'm sorry that's not possible Uchiha San , Yamanaka San, because that are now monks and citizens of Megami no Jinja so how about this I'll ask them to tell me Everything they can remember and I'll send it to you how does that sound?"

I smiled thinly they knew they had one option, which was  to agree. So as we left I went up to Kakashi and gave him a hug and we bonded I turned to Shikaku and the others who were staring at us in shock and said-

" let the Hokage know that Kakashi is coming to help everyone settle in at the shrine ok he'll be back tomorrow" .

Then Said my farewells and grabbed Narutos hand as we got onto Jirou's back and headed back to the shrine.

Chapter Text

Harri POV
When we arrived to the temple everyone was waiting in the courtyard ( well all the people who were able to do so) so I can tell them what to expect in life at this shrine.

I hesitated for a second nervous about speaking to a group of about 500 people. When I felt Naruto squeeze my hand and say ' you can do it Harri ! Go and give the best speech ever Dattebayo'.

Filled with confidence I walked up to the makeshift stand and looked at all the people looking at me when I cleared my throat.

" I am Harri Potta last of the Potta clan and head priestess of the Megami no Jinja shrine. I welcome you to my home.  Now some of you are obviously worried about living here at the shrines and how life will be at the shrine. First thing is that EVERYONE will have a psych evaluation test done by a professional therapist and psychologist , now understand that I will not have anyone enter your mind scape but many of you have been through traumatic things that if left untreated can lead to mental disorders and in extreme cases death".

I paused to let that sink in before continuing. 

"Also some of you will be required to help with day to day chores such as upkeep of the shrine and where you are living and working in our fields for food. Now some of you I am aware, worry about finances at the moment it is not a pressing issue due to us trading dye,silk ,and crops . Presently since you are all considered monks , priestess, or citizens of Megami no Jinja you have the option to learn many arts such as dance,music,science,language,martial arts and etc."

There was a ripple of excitement through the crowd, and I had to raise my hand getting their attention once more to continue .

"Though it is required of all to be able to read and write as well as basic math. Although if you currently do not know on how to do these things you will soon. Also if you wish you may learn Samurai or ninja arts because after all we do need soldiers in case we are attacked by bandits and the like." 

Seeing some of the people looking pessimistic and wary I explained further on the subject. 

" Children will be required to learn basic defense classes throughout their education, but after the requirement nothing more is needed.  If they wish to continue they must have a guardians approval, or have to wait till the age of 16 to apply to be a apprentice warrior or ninja. " 

" Lastly I want to make clear to everyone that we do not have child soldiers here..you will not be sent to a battlefield until you are 18 unless the situation is a dire one or a special case."

I explained and I saw many mothers and fathers breathe a sigh of relief.  Before I continued once again. 

"Now another thing that must be addressed is the laws here." I started strictly. 

 "Firstly rape ,sexual harassment, Molestation, fraud,transporting illegal drugs and the like,murder,theft, child Abuse, Domestic abuse and assault are all illegal and carry heavy penalties . As well if you break laws while in other countries and villages depending on the situation we may or may not leave you there to face the justice system."

Seeing alarm in the crowd I hurried to explain. 

 "Because as a neutral soon to be city we have to toe carful lines with ninja villages and yes you heard me correctly when I said city. As I said it depends upon the situation,  if a man purposely breaks an important law in let's say Sunagakure for no good or particular reason I will leave him.

But if he had a good reason,  such as saving someone or something even though the law stood in his path I would request a trail and give you the best lawyer's."

Many nodded in understanding. 

"I bought the surrounding land from the daimyo of this country and am planning on beginning construction of a city to surround the shrine . Now you can choose to work in construction and will get paid for it but I will not force anyone to do manual labor for free. And should you ever wish to leave I will not bar you from doing so, just as if refugees from Kumo or Iwa came here asking for asylum I would not turn them away unless they are spies or mean to cause harm. "

" Another thing that is illegal here is Hate crimes, and slander. Bullying, prejudice, racism, sex shaming, and all things in between..I do not care if you are a prominent clan from grass or a civilian from rain. You are equal in my eyes and I will treat you the same until you give me a reason to do otherwise. " 

I finished passionately,  which led to a scattered applause. That I once again had to silence. 

"Now to another matter I am aware that you have your own leaders so this is how the ' government' will be set up each person that has the same goals,ideals,and lifestyle may create their own political group. But each group must have 3 leaders that meet the education requirements and have no criminal record as well as two lieutenants that must match the same requirement as well as being citizens for at least 6 months."

"And should there be a issue with let's say for example Chizue and her group are construction workers and think we could make more profit if they went and set up smaller companies around other villages and made a request for it to happen all the other political groups will get together and put a vote if we expand or not."

"But I as head priestess have an ability to veto a request if it violates basic human rights or is straight up stupid and the only way my veto is overturned is if 10, other political parties vote against it. Now I am not a monarch but I do oversee the shrine soon to be cities and everyone in it . Now does anyone have any questions that they wish to ask before you are led to your quarters for the night"?.

No one spoke , so I nodded to Asako who led 70 new shrine spirits to lead the people to their quarters and made sure they were cared for.

" Ayako" I called out and not a second later she appears at my side with a " what's up mistress". " can you find Fu Yamanaka, Kakashi and Kabuto and bring them to my chambers please" I replied.

She nodded and went to go get them while i walked to my room with Garou , Naruto and Jirou .Diarmuid was already on the bed asleep when we walked in and Garou went to take a shower while I waited anxiously for my other mates to come.

Suddenly there was a knock on the door and after my soft ' come in' Ayako entered with Kabuto and Fu .

I told her she could leave and she was gone back down the hallway with the door closing behind her. I turned to all three of my new mates and offered them the tea I made along with some cookies I made in the small kitchenette while Waiting for them. Naruto grabbed the nearest Cookie's and shoved them down his throat " Harri this is delicious Dattebayo!".

Fu simply stared at me as if trying to memorize my entire face to the smallest detail while kabuto simply sipped his tea looking at Naruto with disgust and amusement , lastly there was Kakashi who was sitting next to me was trying to secretly smell my hair.

" I had you all brought here because we're bonded mates..now as you realise I have multiple mates that are alpha's and betas this is because I am a Nekomata omega the last of my clan meaning I need as many mates as possible".

All of them understood except for Naruto so before he could even ask " Naruto alpha's , beta's and omegas are second sexes like I'm a omega meaning even though I am a boy I can have babies when I get older and when I say mates all of you will be my husband's if you wish too". He blushed red gasped and Said " BUT we are to young to get Married Dattebayo!" .

I put my hand on his to clam him down " no we aren't married yet Naruto but our bond is basically a promise to get Married when we get older".

Naruto relaxed at my admission, saying he understood . Then he asked "What's a alpha"?

" Alpha's are people that are more aggressive and sometimes stronger than everyone else when they think their pack is in trouble and most are usually leaders just like you Naruto are stronger than most your age it's because your an alpha and you belief of never giving up" . I said admiration written all over my face.

He blushed at being complemented and said "believe it !!".

I then looked back at the others " I really would like to have you as my mates if you would have me but I understand if you want to wait to get to know me better before we cemented the bond and .....if you wanted to break it I won't stop you though I will try my hardest to convince you not to."

My voice cracked at the end showing my nerves and hurt at the idea of one of my mates rejecting me. Naruto grabbed my hand and Said. " Harri you came back to get me when i was trying to leave the village..you have no idea how much it means to me...and you are pretty and kind to me and make delicious food ..and I like you so if you want me to be your future husband than I will Dattebayo"! I was so happy I pulled Naruto into a bone crushing hug and turned back to my other mates .

" Also if you do cement our bond you have the option of becoming my familiar which is when our soulmate mark shows on your skin and you receive extra abilities, like Garou can turn into a wolf and speak to wolves , Diarmuid who has control over wind. As well as the title of consort ,and lastly the reason why I need so many mates isn't just because I need to rebuild my clan it's because of my Kekkai Genkai . I need my mates to keep my powers grounded or else it will drive me insane or blow everything up."

I said dead pan, Kakashi and Kabuto both looked worried at the admission, but I calmed them down by saying that it wouldn't happen to me for a while yet, and never will because by that time I'll hopefully have enough mates.

I then looked up at Kakashi to see what he had to say, when he spoke in his smooth voice.

" I always thought I was  going to be alone in this world forever regretting my past. Never having a family..or loved ones.And now that I have a chance at a true happy  life again you think i wont take it"? He put his hand on my head and ruffled my hair ' of course I'll bond with you ' he says through the link.

Eyes crinkled at the edge ,the only tell that he was smiling.  I literally jumped in joy and kissed his cheek before remembering we weren't alone. 

I then looked to Fu and Kabuto with my saddest puppy dog eyes. Fu after looking in my eyes simply nodded as if that was all he needed to say.

.Kabuto stared at the table and finally looked me in the eye calculatingly and said through the bond ' I have always had difficulty with my emotions and can never seem to label them but you....you make me feel warm ,so I will be your mate but know that you will always be MINE no matter how many mates you have I will always have you.'

I smiled so big it was hurting my cheeks. I then turned to Naruto and pulled him into a kiss and our worlds exploded so bright as emotions thoughts and memories were exchanged. It must have been too much for Naruto because when I pulled back a ghost escaped from him mouth.

Kakashi snickered while Jirou who was just coming out of the bathroom sighed and put Naruto in the bed next to Diarmuid followed by putting his forehead to mine then joining them in bed . I turned to do Kakashi next when Kabuto forcefully pulled me towards him and kissed me hard.

His lips were warm yet chapped as I felt the euphoria of bonding with another mate . He just nuzzled me for a couple seconds until Kakashi snatched me away. Then Kakashi pulled down his mask and I gasped ' beautiful' was all I thought and he smirked ' I should be the one saying that' when my world exploded in colors again.

After our bond was cemented I saw Fu looking uncomfortable and made grabby hands at him ,when he pulled me into a stiff hug I breathed in his scent and released my pheromones . He relaxed and gave me a chaste kiss which nearly made me pass out like Naruto when Garou coming out of the bathroom brought me back to life.

He laid on the other side of Diarmuid and fell asleep after kissing my forehead. I then followed Kakashi to the bed pulling Kabuto and Fu behind me. And as soon as my head hit the pillow I was asleep.

Harry POV
The next day was going perfectly fine until I got a letter from the Hokage demanding that I came back to konoha with Naruto so here I am again on Jirou's back as all of my mates and I flew to konoha

. Also don't worry about the shrine I left Asako and Ayako in charge while I was gone I also brought all of the ex root members statements to give the Hokage so he won't nag me about it. My thoughts were interrupted when we landed in front of konoha gates and Jirou put me down as we walked through the gates.

Everyone was gawking at us as we walked to the Hokage tower maybe it was because we were wearing nobles clothes or that I was holding hands with Naruto. But anyone who stared at Naruto with any negative emotion received a death glare from me. We reached the Hokage tower and were immediately pushed into the Hokage's office.

I wasn't fooled by the Hokage's apologies about calling us out of the blue and accusations of kidnapping children when I cut him off '' enough with the BS old man I didn't kidnap Naruto ok he ran to the shrine for ASYLUM due to how the civilians here treated him!" I snapped furious on my mates behalf. 

" I wonder what his parents would say if they saw how he was treated! The only way I'll even consider Naruto living in this village is if you have a Potta- Uzamaki compound built and have Kakashi as his guardian"! I finished voicing my ultimatum. 

Then the Hokage tried to say me and Naruto couldn't share a compound which I replied with '' why the hell not we are mates and my mother was a Uzamaki!!"

And  in the shock following that statment quick as a while I  pulled out the proof that I got from my grandmother on the table next to the ex root papers. Out of the corner of my eye I saw Garou,naruto and Kabuto smirking or outright giggling as I gave Hiruzen a smack down while Fu remained blank faced and Jirou had both of his fingers on his nose as if he were praying for patience.

Hiruzen knowing that the battle is lost gave in and Said the compound wold be up in a week and until then we could stay at the Hyuga compound . I squealed in excitement while raving to Naruto about how much fun we could have with Hinata as we were escorted to the Hyugas compound.

As soon as I saw Hinata I threw myself at her and gave her a squeeze which made her go cherry red and steam come out her ears . " Oops"

I said and took a step back from her to question her about her day with Naruto' s input Every now and then while my mates went and explored the village or attended business. Later we were at the training grounds in the compound where I was showing them basic self defense when I saw a boy with long brown hair hesitating at the entrance.

I left Hinata and Naruto to their stretches and went up to him " hey Do you want to train with us? Because we have room for more people"  I said kindly then smiled at him trying to ease his obvious discomfort.

When he nodded I took his hand to pull him over to the group when a imprint bond formed I asked " what is your name? I'm Harri Potta". Getting straight to the point while he gaped at me.

He blushed and looked away and replied " Neji". We trained and played until Hinata's care taker Ko came to fetch her he glared at Naruto and released intimidating alpha pheromones which made Naruto flinch and look down .

Suddenly filled with rage I stepped in front of Naruto snarling at the alpha who was upsetting my mate Neji also released alpha pheromones started growling when I locked eyes with Ko and imprinted once again.

Ko startled and stared at me in wonder which turned into a assessing gaze. When an adult Hyuga came in with Garou" what is going on here"! The Hyuga asked smelling the distressed and angry scents in the air and releasing his calming beta pheromones to calm us down " Ko is being a snob to Naruto"! I snapped at him and as soon as I turned to him I imprinted again I threw my hands in the air " what the fuck!".

Ko ,Neji,and Hinata gasped while Naruto giggled and Garou shook his head . The newcomer who I imprinted on was just in shock. Later as I was walking down the hallway to let the clan head know about the development( the adult Hyuga I imprinted on is Hoheto) I bumped into someone and fell on my butt the next thing I know is they I'm being picked up by Tokuma Hyuga who was apologizing when I imprinted ONCE AGAIN. So now here I am explaining to Hiashi and my potential mates how my clan Kekkai Genkai works what it entails to be my mate and if our children have the byakugan I will NEVER allow them to get the bird caged seal over my dead body!!

I then gave Hiashi the new seal Naruto and I created to replace the despicable one they used that actually protected their Kekkai Genkai from being stolen without enslaving people. And that I already put it on Neji and Ko so they couldn't put the Caged bird seal on them like the others have that others are so keen to force on people.

I then went to my quarters with all imprints and sat down at the table and had ' the talk with them' Neji was the first to agree and passed out after our bond was completed. While Hoheto seemed to agonize over our age gap " well technically I age differently than humans now every month to me is a year until I reach maturity then I stop aging in general. Not mentioning mentally I'm  about 15 ". I explained. 

Which then led to me explaining how my mates aged, " my mates age the same as me meaning racing to maturity then basically immortality". He then allowed me to complete the bond with a chaste kiss and when I teased him about needing another he glared at me which I stuck my tongue out at him declaring he was no fun which he huffed at.

Tokuma was next and he must have been Impatient because he kissed me first and I knew that he was probably going to be my rock out of the sea that seems to be my mates due to how calm and level Headed he is. The last one was Ko and he looked as if he was fighting with himself so I put my hand on his ' I know we got off to a rock start Ko and I understand if you want to take some time to properly think about it or just wanting to wait until you know me better. But I want us to start over and try again if that's ok with you'?

 I looked up at him sincerely, he smirked and simply kissed me quickly and chaste with soft warm lips as his answer. Then after Everyone got situated everyone got into the enlarged bed and fell asleep . Even though some had to be convinced(threatened) to lay down to begin with. And prayed for the next day to be peaceful

Chapter Text

Harri POV
I woke up before any of my mates, which was normal because I always rose unusually early.
I carefully made sure i didn't step or poke any on my mates as I got out of the nest and headed to the bathroom. When I finished brushing my teeth I got in the shower and as I got dressed I felt some of my mates stir probably from noticing my absence.

Next thing I know a ruffled Jirou comes into the bathroom probably to check on me and because my other mates where still asleep or lazy to do so. "Good morning love"! I chirped at him happily and gave him a hug .

He smiled then put his hand on my head and returned the greeting with a blush. Then Jirou started to get ready for the day .

"Jirou is any one else awake"? I asked Innocently as possible as he got in the large pool sized tub. " No,other than Kabuto who was stirring..why do you ask"? " No reason I was just wondering" I said with a grin that made him shake his head.

I then went into the little kitchen down the hall and started breakfast I made omelets,with bacon, sausages and fruit salad. Then I moved each plate to the table in our bedroom then the bowl that had the fruit salad as well as pitchers of juice and water along with cups.

Then I headed back to my nest where all my mates where still sleeping and grinned an evil smirk then pounced on the middle of the bed rolling around and jumping on my mates yelling " WAAAKEY WAKEY EGGS AND BAKEY"! Kakashi , Garou, and Hoheto started awake and had a weapon in their hands as if they were being set upon by assassin's but when they saw me jumping on Fu, Neji,Ko and Tokuma to wake them up they relaxed.

Naruto groaned and hid behind Kakashi saying it was to soon to wake up while Hoheto started scolding me while Kabuto grabbed me so I would stop jumping. I frowned and made teary puppy eyes and said in a wobbly voice " b-but I just made you breakfast to celebrate our first m-morning together as mates.." Kakashi sensing a breakdown immediately assured me that they couldn't wait to taste my food and started ushering everyone to the table with Naruto clinging to his arm half awake.

Diarmuid picked me up and held me close as he chuckled over Kakashi's panicking and said " Harri I can't wait to taste your food I bet it'll be delicious, and next time you want to wake us like that count me in" he then winked at me which made me giggle as we all sat down. Jirou was just in time for breakfast too and some of my mates (Hoheto,Ko,and Kabuto) were surprised by how much food I made and how it didn't look like a disaster.

Jirou, Garou,Diarmuid, and Naruto ate as soon as they sat down which prompted the others to take a bite of the omelets. Narutos eyes widened " this is great Harri, Dattebayo"! And started shoveling the food in his mouth while others just nodded along with his statement. Or stared at him either at horror of his table manners (ko and the Hyugas) or in amusement like Garou and Kakashi.

While Garou, Naruto, Kakashi ,Ko,  Neji and Diarmuid seemed to prefer the bacon and sausage Hoheto,Tokuma,Kabuto, Jirou and Fu preferred the salad and omelets I noted that down for future reference.

Garou,Jirou,kakashi,and Hoheto were conversing while I interacted with Ko,Kabuto,Naruto, Fu,Neji and Tokuma.After Breakfast everyone got ready for the day except for Kakashi ,Tokuma,and Hoheto who had missions to attend to.

I made sure that they knew how to summon Garou or Jirou Incase of emergency and worried over them until they were about to leave when I asked Hoheto to bend down and gave him a kiss on the cheek and which made him blush and splutter.  I had to promise I wouldn't kiss him again so I could scent him .

I then asked Kakashi to do the same but kissed him on the mouth over his mask and rubbed my face against his scenting him which shocked him enough he just stared at me before giving me a hug  and whispering " naughty naughty Harri" in a scolding tone that made me giggle.

Next I   turned to Tokuma who was waiting for his kiss and I gave him a kiss on the cheek and rubbed my face on his scenting him.

Then they were gone , and I started to sulk when Diarmuid broke the silence "Harri what do you want to do today? O  How about we go visit the market place and the village to sight see as well as doing some much needed shopping"? 

I immediately brightened uo and Started mumbling about the things to get when Naruto spoke up " a-actually I want to stay here today be-because h-h-hinata and  i have plans,you guys can go and have fun." And he smiled a fake wan smile I was not fooled nor were my other mates  so I took Narutos hand and mine and Said in my adult voice. 

" Naruto listen to me  I really want you to come with us and you know we will keep you safe so don't let the mean,hateful,and prejudiced villagers ruin our fun time ok"?

Garou backed me up by saying " yeah kid I want you to come too because it wouldn't be a the same without ya and if anyone says anything I'll hurt them". Jirou shook his head while Ko started saying it's illegal to harm citizens to Garou who wasn't listening. 

 Fu watched impassive and Kabuto was smirking at the idea of hurting a civilian.  Neji simply nodded at  Naruto in support. Naruto suddenly started crying which made everyone bar Kabuto and Fu look as him in concern or worry when he smiled and stood up " yeah! Let's go Harri we'll have lots of fun Dattebayo"! And after I scented all of them we left the Hyuga compound.

The first stop was at a clothing store where all of my mates got new wardrobes while I only chose some outfits that stood out because I already had a outstanding wardrobe from the goddesses.

Naruto,Neji and Ko tried to stop me from purchasing their clothes.

I told Naruto it is a early birthday present then told Ko and Neji that considering they were now  my Consorts and technically at prince status they must look the part which stopped their complaints immediately.

Kabuto smirked at me and said " that was pretty sly of you Hari" and his smile widened when he saw me shiver when he said my name.

" Well I am Your mate after all so guess I have to be" I said back quick as a whip and followed Garou up front who had all our purchases. When we got up there the clerk was all nice and dandy until she saw Naruto.

Her face that was once pretty twisted " I'm sorry but we don't serve demons here". Naruto paled ,Fu and Kabuto stared stonily ,Jirou and Garou started to growl with me.

" Do you know who I am!" I snarled angry as hell " I am the high priestess of Megami no Jinja and you just insulted one of my Consorts so before I have this shop closed due to your disrespect and stupidity I suggest you hurry up and give us our purchases with a 50 percent discount before I have you brought before the Hokage! Do I make myself clear"? 

She paled and quickly did as I commanded as all the patrons whispered about what just happened. As soon as we got all the clothes in the never ending pouch I carried with me we left I held Narutos hand and breathed in his calming scent before I went back in there to tear out her throat.

When we went to a fruit/vegetables stall with a man who remained polite seeing Garou and Jirou's glares I bought Nashi (Japanese Pear) seeds, Ringo (apple ) seeds,  Mikan (oranges) seeds,Yuzu (lemon) seeds, Sudachi seeds,Momo (peach) seeds, Plum tree seeds,budo (grape) seeds, melon seeds,watermelon seeds, and kiwi seeds.

Then  bought cabbage seeds, Hakusai cabbage seeds, spinach seeds,Shiso seeds,Diakon seeds, Kabu  turnip seeds,potato and sweet potato bulbs, taro root,Yam,lotus root,Gobo,Ninjin,onion seeds,ginger,tomato ,cucomner,Negi,Takenoko,green peppers,eggplant,Goya seeds and Kabocha.

I put all of them in another bag and gave it to Jirou who summoned a raven and told it to take it to the shrine. After all we needed to start growing food to support our people and ourselves and the plant that grow in our gardens grow quickly but live longer especially during winter.

We left the stall munching on peaches when we walked into a weapon shop where the owner was dressed in Chinese like garb and welcomed us to the shop.

I ended up getting Kabuto and Fu some senbon needles and poison after making them make a vow not to use it on anyone but enemies. I got Naruto some shuriken and kunai while Jirou got some smoke bombs and a scythe .

Neji and Ko got a assassin like knife that was hidden on the forearm(from assassin's creed) and brass knuckles.

Garou got some as well as a silver staff that could also be used as a spear. I also just bought a half of the store for those training at the shrine and sent another raven.

As we were about to leave a little girl ran into the store and bumped into me she landed on her butt and we both apologized at the same time.

I gave her my hand and as soon as she took it we both glowed. And a tattoo of owl appeared  on her arm I gasped she was my first sister bonded other than Hinata!

  I helped her up and asked for her name which is Tenten amid my mates and her father's confused and frustrated argument when I spoke up.  " Excuse me ! How about we hit two birds with one stone and go to a diner to eat while I explain what happened"?

After everyone agreed I turned to Naruto and asked him to lead us to the ramen place he told me about he grinned grabbed my hand and we were off.

" So my daughter isn't your mate but a sister bond meaning that she and Hinata are your delegates that are meant to be the bridge between you and the village"?

" Yeah pretty much " I shrugged and ate the last of my noodles Shin , who is Tentens father hummed in thought. "  It also means that you and your family can live in the new clan compound when it's finished" i said .

Shin rubbed his chin deep in thought before he spoke.

" This is a lot of information can I inform my wife and let you know my response in a few days"?

I nodded , Said that it was fine and soon after they said their goodbyes and left. After they left  I turned to Jirou with puppy eyes  and said " Jirou can we pretty pretty please go and get some Dango before we go home for a treat "?

Jirou hesitated " Harri I don't know..its in the Uchiha compounds" but by then Neji and Naruto joined in with the puppy faces.

Jirou turned to Garou who shrugged and then Diarmuid who wanted to go , he realized he was fighting a losing battle.

He sighed and opened his mouth to tell us no when I pulled out the big guns " Alpha please"? I pleaded With teary eyes and he crumbled with a sigh.

" Fine but only two dango each all right" then we were off heading to the Uchiha compounds.

We received lots of curious looks from the Uchihas as we walked amongst  them .

 I then saw the shop and ran towards it with Naruto giggling ignoring Jirou who was yelling behind us. When I slammed into someone exiting the shop he caught me before I fell on my butt with a laugh .

" woah kid  slow down itachi won't eat all the dango yet"!  I looked into his black eyes and imprinted.

He stared in shock  when a voice came behind him "Shisui I resent that " it said.

I slowly  turned and saw a boy with long black hair pulled into a ponytail and same eyes of the boy holding me and I imprinted once again. Itachi just stared at me in shock  when I wiggled to be put down.

 When I was released and I introduced myself '' I am harri potta last of my clan and high priestess of Megami no Jinja these are my mates Uzamaki Naruto,Hyuga Neji,Hyuga Ko,Jirou,Hatake Garou,Diarmuid,Kabuto,and Yamanaka Fu."

They stared at me in shock as I continued" how about I explain everything while  we eat dessert"? They nodded and we sat down at a large table them straight across from me and Kabuto on my left and Naruto on my right.

We then ordered our dessert and tea. Then I turned to my possible mates and started talking.

" ok the main reason why I have so many mates  is because one I'm a Nekomata and second because of my Kekkai Genkai because I share parts of my Kekkai Genkai with them which in return they keep me grounded as well as away from insanity or death. That would have come to me with time had I not bonded with them".

"Also I don't age like mortals every month is a year  to me.  Until I reach maturity then I age very slowly just like  my mates age slowly as well. One could say we are immortal unless killed. Now most of my mates are my familiars as well which means that they get a tattoo and extra abilities, as well as the title consort, so I understand that this is a lot of information so I'll let you think on your decision while we eat".

Then we finally got our dessert and I quickly finished mine it was so good that when I saw itachi and Shisui whispering to each other  and not eating I waited until Jirou wasn't looking and snagged Shisui's dango and shared with Neji, Kabuto,and Naruto when iIsaw Shisui wink at me from the corner of my eye.

After we all finished i turned to my new mates with hope and puppy eyes on blast when Shisui said " Harri we would love to be your mates but we cant leave our clan and village" to which I replied " you won't have to because my Kekkai Genkai allows me to do a way of teleportation so you can just go back and forth that way".

They both relaxed so I said " it's getting kinda late and making the bond permanent isn't something to be done publicly and for it to settle you have to stay in my nest tonight so if you have anyone to tell that you are staying with me tonight do so now and Jirou's raven can carry the missive".

After itachi wrote a small letter and we sent it off we headed to my temporary home.

When we got home and everyone was ready for bed I asked which Uchiha wanted to go first Itachi averted his eyes so shisui said he would go first.

So  I leaned in and gave him a kiss and the world fell away and I saw my soul connected to many different color blobs which I realised were my mates when I was snapped back to earth when Shisui pulled away with a gasp.

" o my kami what was that"!  When i explained my opinion everyone was in shock and started asking a million questions which I answered as Well as I could.

When the questions stopped I turned to Itachi  "you ready"? I asked and he nodded so I leaned over and pecked his lips and felt an explosion once again that ultimately felt like home.

When I pulled back he still looked out of it so I waved my hands in his face . He blinked and answered my unasked question saying yes I'm fine and we then laid in the middle of the bed with the rest of my mates around us and fell into a deep sleep.

Chapter Text

Harri POV
When I first started to wake I snuggled closer to Shisui breathing in his scent and sucking in his warmth.

When I heard someone leave the nest so I sat up and groggily followed Fu from the nest to the bathroom. when I entered the bathroom he was preparing the tub for a bath " Good morning!...... Fu would you mind if I joined you? I didn't take a bath yesterday and it would save me from refilling the tub".

I smiled at him and he replied with a quiet " no I don't you can get in" and he took off his pajamas and got in I followed after finishing brushing my teeth.

I sighed in enjoyment as I relaxed in the warm water when I saw Fu immediately started lathering his hair mechanically when I swam over to him " here let me you can sit and relax while I wash your hair and you can return the favor ok"?

I questioned with a smile and after hesitating he nodded and I took the shampoo and put some in my hands and started massaging it into his hair. It was a beautiful auburn color and I played with the ends when I told him to lean back so I could wash it out .

I then rinsed out his hair and got a conditioner bottle after getting the confirmation that he wanted that one put it on my hands it started massaging his hair again. After I finished he already had the shampoo bottle in his hands and when he started washing my kind slightly curly long black hair I started to purr which made a small smile appear on his face.

After he rinsed off the conditioner I pouted over my massage session being over when he handed me my wash cloth and we started washing our bodies. I turned to him when I was done " Fu will you wash my back and the base of my tail I can't reach". He hummed in affirmative when he started to scrub my pack and when he washed my tail I immediately went limp and purred like crazy which made him catch me.

" Harri are you ok"? He asked concerned when I blushed and looked down " yeah..my tail is just very very sensitive..".

 When something made me look up in shock to seeing my most emotionless mate laughing at me! I then pouted and splashed him which triggered a quick but dangerous splash war it ended when Fu got me to surrender by tickling.

We got out of the bath and got dressed when I asked Fu what I should make for breakfast " how about Miso soup ? I heard it's common yet tastes good." I nodded " alright I'll make some Miso soup , do you want to help me make breakfast and everyone's lunches?"

He nodded so we headed straight to the kitchen.
I had Fu chop up the green veggies and onions while i prepared the tofu and broth, after I left the miso soup to cook I made some rice and when it was done put some in all the bowls I had left out on a tray for all of my mates.

Then I started working on the grilled pork I would have on the side while Fu worked on the sunny side up eggs( while I watched to make sure he didn't burn them) that would go over the rice.

The miso soup and pork were done at the same time after we put the eggs over the rice and then I had Fu help me prepare some orange juice from scratch and fresh grapes.

After I made Onigiri with salmon in the middle for my mates who prefer meat and tuna while for the others I used seaweed and umeboshi.

Next I put some left over miso soup with some sandwiches and macaroons for dessert then wrapped up the vents with Fu's help. When we started to bring back the food to the little living/dining room next to the bed room everyone was getting ready or getting up.

I went around all my mates and gave them kisses or hugs (because some cough* Jirou*cough were to tall and were not risking me laying one on them until I was ' older' ) with a bright " good morning breakfast is ready"!

 I sat at the table next to Fu and Garou while everyone else got to a spot at the table then we said thanks and dug in. My favorite was the egg and rice that I mixed with the pork,and the grapes.

Everyone complemented my cooking prowess (Naruto being one of the loudest) which made me puff up in pride that my mates liked my cooking when a message bird appeared on the window behind me . Garou got up took the letter and gave it to Itachi and Shisui who read it " what is it? Who is it from"?

I asked as politely as I could while being nosy .Itachi surprisingly was the one who replied " it's my parents they would like to meet you tonight at dinner.." I smiled.

" that's fine I would love to meet your family especially this brother you keep going on about" I teased.

Itachi blushed while some of my mates laughed at my joke when Garou was surprisingly a voice of concern " Hold your horses first we have to figure out who will be watching over you and the younger ones today. Jirou and I are heading back to the shrine to make sure everything is running smoothly, Diarmuid has to check the construction of the compound,and the others are still on missions or aren't on good terms with the Uchiha" he said nodding towards Ko .

I thought for a second , " how about Diarmuid he can be our guard because he could switch out with Ko who can finish anything Diarmuid hasn't while we head with Itachi and Shisui".

Garou and Jirou looked at one another then nodded and agreed when Shisui spoke " even if none of you could accompany her she would be perfectly safe with us" he said stonily bristling when I let out calming pheromones " Shisui I know you both will protect me it wasn't a insult technically I just need another legal mate to act as guardian since by Konoha's laws I'm still a minor" .

Shisui now longer upset nodded in understanding while Itachi huffed at his stupidity having already having figured it out . When we all finished breakfast and my mates that had to leave got ready to go I suddenly remembered I made their lunches!!

" Wait I made lunch for you hold on" I then came back with Garou,Jirou,Diarmuid,itachi,and Shisui's lunches floating behind me .

Then I went to each mate and gave then a hug or kiss goodbye then scented them and handed over their lunch boxes. Then they to took off I huffed kinda depressed that half of my my mates were gone when  reminded myself that they would all be here tomorrow.

Naruto shook me out of my thoughts by asking if I made bentos for them too  and I smiled " of course I did ! I would never leave out ANY of my mates ".

I turned to Ko who who was supposed to oversee us today and asked " Ko today can you take us to the forest so I can practice my Kekkai Genkai and elemental Justus"? 

 Ko frownedand replied "Harri why must we go to the forest? We have training grounds here."

I huffed in impatience and replied

." Because I just want some air and I don't feel comfortable letting others see me do my Kekkai Genkai".

He then nodded " that's reasonable we can go to the forest after I have all of you promise not to stray from me or Fu ".

Everyone quickly promised though Kabuto looked offended at the thought that he would ever act like a irresponsible child.  Then we left Naruto and I telling the others to walk faster as our excitement got to us.

When we got to the Forest I sat our belongings and food under a tree and set up a ward around it so they won't be stolen by humans or critters.

Then we all started our warm ups I finished first then waited till my other mates are done and brought out chakra papers and handed each one to a mate. Ko had a water and wind affinity ,Neji had fire and Earth,Fu had Earth and lightning,Kabuto had Earth, water and wind,and Naruto had all five which shocked everyone but me.

Once that was done , I got out instructions for air bending or manipulation what ever you call it and gave a copy to Kabuto , Naruto, and Ko.

Aka I don't own this got it from a website

Start out by building up your chi in your hands. Instead of using some drastic movement to fire chi from your hands, and slowly "radiate" the chi from your palms in a very delicate way. Feel the air around you, and realize what it is like to move your hands through the air.

Realize that WE are constantly moving through the air, and the air does not make space for us to move through. Feel the air merging with your chi, and becoming one with it. Feel like you can control the air as easily as you can control your own chi. Feel the air becoming your chi.

You will know when you connect with the air, because you will feel something strange. At this point, you can move the air just as you would move your chi, and keep in mind to not lose the feeling of the air becoming one with your chi. Realize that whenever the air moves, more air has to move to take its place. You will feel something like this when you move the air around. 



Mixing Your Chi with the Air: If you don't know how to let chi out through your whole body and mix it with the air, Air Bending is going to be impossible for you to do. First, you need to feel your chi and then designate the areas you want it to come out of.

So, first you need to meditate and visualize your chi coming out from almost every possible place. Once you see your chi come out, you need to make it fuse with the air. This is the hard part, you need to have complete control over it for you to do this. Now, let your chi go into the air and don't force it to do anything else.

Once you mix it with the air, try to move it around a little and don't expect any serious results the first time you do this, because it may take a little while for you to get it down.


Gust of Wind: Make a Chi Ball, then visualize the chi turn into air. Then, visualize the ball of air start to spin around , getting faster and faster. Then, visualize the ball split apart in a gust of air toward your face. Don't be discouraged if you don't get it on the first try, because Bending is very hard. Practice this until you can do it easily.



Breeze: First, stand out in the open on a peaceful day with barely any wind. I usually stand up, but you can sit down i you want to. Anyway, imagine yourself in the clouds and relax. Now, visualize a blue sort of dust around you which is the air. Stand in your pose (just do whatever feels right) and imagine the wind slowly circling around you and whipping your face gently. If the wind kicks up even just a little then congratulations but again feel free to experiment a bit.




Dominating Air: Dominating air is the technique of charging the air around you with chi so that you can bend it. First of all, you need to know how to do Chi Radiation, located on the Chi page. So, use chi radiation, but use it with your whole body. So instead of radiating chi out of your hands, radiate it out of your whole body. Keep radiating it and expand the perimeter of chi radiated. In other words, you are going to radiate the chi out further. When it gets at a substantial distance, hold it there for a while, and feel the air drawing close to the chi you radiated.  




Wind Summon: Stand in a comfortable position with your hands by your waists. If you can, try to go into a standing meditation if you want greater effect. Now, visualize the power of the Four Winds (North, South, East, and West). Picture them being attached by "strings" to your hands, so that you may move the winds as you please. At this point, with the strings still in mind, slowly begin to raise your hands. This will cause the winds to be drawn towards you.

 As your hands raise, the wind should kick up. Repeat the process and put your hands above your head if you wish to create more wind. You can also try visualizing something else with four similar symbols. Like 4 horses for example and instead of your chi being strings, they can be reins. Try to focus on one of the winds at first, otherwise it could be a bit difficult. Also try practicing STOPPING already existing winds.




Air Ball: Make a chi ball, then make it bigger and bigger until it is the size of a basketball. Once you have done that, move your hands around and around real fast and get a whole lot of air into it. Be sure to add air pressure by compressing the air ball into a spherical vortex.




Air Ball 2: Focus....clear your mind of everything, close your eyes and count backwards from 25. Once you reach 0, focus all your chi into your hands and form a chi ball. Use Air Bending to grasp some air around you. Mix the chi and air together and you should have an air ball.




Wind Manipulation: Ok, what you are basically doing is changing the duration, strength, and direction of the wind. Start off with the Wind Summon technique and then gradually change your form of visualization (I'll be using the horse one as an example) to suit which aspect you wish to manipulate.

For duration, you could just imagine the horses moving longer and try to maintain control. For strength, you could just imagine making the horses go faster and faster. For the direction of the wind, well, imagine making the horses change directions. Again, there are a LOT of different ways to visualize this and Wind Summon. Be creative and do the one that suits you best. Practice this technique and Wind Summon thoroughly before moving on.




Gust: Now, I want you to do the same as you did in the Breeze Technique. Visualize yourself in the clouds surrounded by blue powder or fog, and instead of just making it move, you're going to direct the wind. So, raise your arms over your head and bring them down.

As they come down, imagine the blue fog cupping into your hands. Try to feel the cold breeze , and once your hand is back to your chest, imagine a white chord of light coming from your chest and blasting the ball of air away. Lastly, visualize the air forcing its way towards the desired target.




Float: In this technique, you are not going to fly. Instead, you will make a summit float in the air. Try a feather or a piece of tissue. You can either put it on a surface and blow it or throw it into the air, but try this first: Imagine the blue fog again, but in a close up view of the object and wherever you want it to hover.

Focus all your chi into that spot and make the spot in your vision a dark blue under the object. Basically just imagine the object in that blue fog and wherever you want it to stop on top of. Just imagine it getting darker and focus your chi into it, and do whatever you think will work.   

I  told them if they made it to the Float step to let me know and that chi is just a word for chakra. I then got beginner Earth bending instructions for Neji and Fu.

Again this doesn't belong to me

Become One: Begin by making sure you have access to the ground. You want the ground to be somewhat hard, but not solid rock. Put your hand on the ground, and use your chi capabilities to put chi into the ground from your palm. When you do this, you will feel something strange.

As you continue pumping chi into the ground, try to intensify this feeling. This feeling is your chi "fusing" with the ground. Connecting with the ground through your chi is a vital technique in all kinds of Earth Bending. Once you feel like your own energy is connected enough with the ground, lift your hand off the ground. When you lift it off the ground, continue to pump chi into the earth.

Build up chi in your hand so that your hand feels pressurized. Continue to build up chi beyond this point until you feel like you will have trouble building it up anymore. Slam your palm to the ground, and release all of this chi into the earth. This will cause any nearby surface minerals on the ground to shift, and it will cause a pressure shift under the ground. This is a very crucial technique to know for other Earth Bending techniques.

Moving a Rock: You need a small, moveable pebble. Feel your chi. Place the pebble close to you, maybe a foot away from you on a flat surface. Now project your chi into the rock and feel your chi becoming so strong that it pushes the pebble or makes it twitch a little. When you're good at this, try a bigger rock. Only slightly bigger. Once you can push it or make it twitch, you've done this right!

Earth Connection: Set a stone in front of you. Close your eyes and relax. Visualize yourself in the same room you are in now but only all white. Everything is pure white: the walls, television, desk, pictures, computer, etc. Now look at yourself and the stone, and imagine that only yourself and the rock are the color green. You can use any color you want, but I strongly recommend green. Everything in the room is white except you and the rock. This will help you "become one" with the earth's energy.

Earth Connection 2: Now that you have a connection with the object, you'll want the object to accomplish something. Close your eyes and see yourself and the stone in the room you are in. Visualize yourself standing up and looking at the rock.

Now while visualizing yourself standing up and looking at the stone say "Spin" and visualize yourself spinning. While you are spinning see that because you are spinning the rock it is spinning to join you. See that when you stop it will stop, and when you spin the rock will spin.

Beginner's Lift: First, get a rock or piece of gravel or just a large chip of mud. Then, go to a quiet spot where you will be undisturbed (preferably a place peaceful where people don't go often). Sit in the lotus position or cross-legged if you can't.

Put that piece of earth in front of you, and imagine your chi flowing through you, a green or white substance that is like a second blood line. Imagine all your chi getting really thick in your hands, going out of your fingers, and then imagine it going into the thing in front of you. Now, think of the piece of earth glowing green/white because of your chi.

Still imagining your chi going out your fingers and into the glowing piece of earth, lift your hands up, and imagine the rock moving with your hands. Don't expect much during your first or second try, but if you practice, have patience, and do the steps correctly, then you will get good results.

Once you get the hang of it (eventually you will), try experimenting with it. Move your hands (and the piece of earth) sideways, up and down, do whatever you like with it.


Beginner's Lift 2: First, get a small rock or pebble. Place it in front of you (how far depends how many times you tried this technique). Open your hand so that the palm is showing. Put your hand flat on the ground or floor and imagine your chi going in a straight line towards the rock or pebble.

Visualize your chi filling the rock or pebble and try to lift it. This technique is similar to one of the techniques posted on the Chi Page.

I told them the same thing I told the others, to let me know if they finish the begining exercises.

After I went over towards Naruto and Kabuto to practice the float technique because that's where I left off. And I took a deep breath and imagined the air under the paper I was using keeping it lifted and I was able to do it for up to five minutes when dust tickled my nose and I sneezed.

I flew up 15 feet in the air and I was just floating there not moving as I tried not to panic. Neji and Naruto stared at me in shock and fear as Ko tried to coax me down.

I carefully closed my eyes and felt the air itself breathe around me and felt myself start to descent when I saw a flash of a beautiful butterfly with blue wings that made me lose concentration .

I lost control and ended up falling faster then suddenly going back up ,to the left ,then right and I just started to panic and cry when I finally landed.

 I was deeper into the forest away from my mates where the trees nearly covered the sky when I took a couple deep breaths to calm down. And starting to head in the direction where I thought my mates where when I saw a tiny but beautiful group of beetles  flying away .

My gut instinct said to follow them so I did they were going pretty fast so I had to jog to keep up . When they stopped and I saw a boy wearing dark sunglasses holding his hand out for them to land on.

He stared at me in silence and tilted his head at me when I asked " excise me  my name is harri and I was practicing wind manipulation when I got separated from my group can you please help me find them"?

After a moment in silence he stood up " yes I can help you follow me " and headed in the opposite direction I was going earlier. I followed behind him and my curiosity got the better of me as time went by.

So I asked " exuse me you don't have to answer if you don't want to but what is your name?,where did those pretty beetles go,and can you hold my hand because I'm a little jumpy and it would help me relax".

I took a breath after my tirade and waited for him to answer . He tilted his head as if in thought then said " I am shino and my kikachu when back into my body Because they use it as a nest....and yes we may hold hands". He blushed deep red.

And when I took his hand I stopped shaking and we imprinted he stared at our hands in shock when he smiled and continued walking.

When I gushed about how awesome it was that he had little friends that followed him around everywhere to protect him is and seemed shocked when I asked if it hurt and wanted to know more about them in general.  

He simply answered all my questions when I felt and heard Ko crooning trying to figure out where I am. I ran towards my alpha still holding shinos hand and jumped into his arms as soon as I saw him and breathed in his calm soothing scent.

He checked me for injuries and breathed a sigh of relief when I was fine he set me down and I was caught in a group hug with Naruto and Neji when I was snatched by Kabuto who was releasing so much pheromones it was like he was trying to drown me in his scent so he would always be able to find me .

When finally I was able to cuddle with Fu when ko said " and who are you "? I broke in and  answered for  shino  " he saved me and helped me find you and he's also a mate so I think  we should sit down while I explain to him why I have so many mates".

Then we laid the blanket down and had lunch since shino didn't have one I shared with him . But before I could tell shino the explanation a teen appeared with long hair the same  color as shino's ,with goggle like sunglasses saying that shino shouldn't running off when his eyes met mine and I imprinted again.

I simply patted the spot  next to me and said " sit ,eat,and I'll explain.

Time skip to after the explanation 

Muta and Shino stared at each other than turned to me shino spoke " well then we would like to become your consorts after all our clan always mates for life".

I beamed and hand fed him a grape which made him blush and not wanting Muta to feel left out  I gave him a strawberry ...

I ended up feeding all my mates by hand and we all had a great picnic.

Chapter Text

Harri pov

             After we finished the picnic we had to head home to prepare for the dinner at the Uchiha's.

Shino and Muta went home to explain the situation to the clan and would return to the Hyuga compound where we were staying after we returned from dinner.

So here I am going through my ridiculous wardrobe trying to find something for myself.

The ones coming to the dinner is Itachi Shisui,Diarmuid, and I. While the rest of my mates stayed home eating a meal I made Earlier in preparation .

Itachi wore a black kimono with the Uchiha fan on the back with white dragons on it while Shisui wore the same but the dragons were red. Diarmuid wore a blue kimono with purple accents and trees that made his hair and eyes pop .

I came upon a kimono that I actually liked and put it on it was a deep seductive red with gold accents I put it on and loved how silky and flowy it was yet it didn't hang off my figure.

I put liner around my eyes which made them seem larger and more ethereal and gloss on my lips before putting my hair half up and half down in a elaborate design.

I finally left the bathroom satisfied with my appearance and the fist one to see me was Naruto who gaped at me and shouted while blushing deep red " Harri you look beautiful!! Like a princess Dattebayo"!

I thanked him with a smile while all my other mates complemented me as well. After I scented each mate and bid my farewells Itachi Shisui, Diarmuid and I headed to the Uchiha compound.

When we reached the house a lovely woman with dark hair and eyes greeted us at the door of the traditional styled house. "Welcome to our home, I am Mikoto Itachi's mother its nice to finally meet you Harri you look so cute in your little kimono"!

She gushed as she pulled me into a hug which I snuggled into and started to purr when she ran her fingers through my hair. " Thank you Mikoto san" I said as she let me out of a hug and she replied " o just call me Mikoto or Mom sweety we are family now  after all".

As she greeted Itachi ,Shisui and Diarmuid and then led us to the dinning room where the most amazing smell was coming from and the source was a table set up with warm sukiyaki which smelled heavenly.

There was also a stern looking man that looked similar to Itachi that sat at the head of the table and as soon as his eyes landed on me assessing and piercing I knew he was not to be trifled with because of the sheer power he seemed to give off in waves.

My mates and I greeted him with a bow and he in turn gave us the signal to sit . I sat next to Diarmuid with Shisui on my other side while across from me was a boy who had black hair and eyes with pale skin who was staring at me in shock and awe and when I smiled at him he blushed and I imprinted again.

Fugaku sighed and put his fingers on his nose like Jirou does when praying for patience while Mikoto smiled in delight while serving the food and Diarmuid laughed while Itachi and Shisui grinned.

The boy who I realized was Sasuke snapped out at Shisui " whats so funny huh"?

Shisui replied " kid Harri was invited so Fugaku could ' approve' of him as our mate when he imprints on you so now he has to integrate him into the clans fold "!

He says with a grin and gets smacked by Itachi who shakes his head " no manners at ,disgraceful".

Which everyone laughs at except for Fugaku who simply smiles while giving us permission to eat and make conversation. Getting curious I turned to Fugaku " excuse me Fugaku you are chief of the police force are you not"? 

He nods " I am" I then asked him multiple questions on how the police force works and the justice system in general which seemed to surprise yet delight him that I was asking so many questions.

I then told him I might call upon his help because I wanted to have a similar force set up at the shrine except made more diverse and fair.

He agreed which made me smile and thank him his attention was then taken by Mikoto and Diarmuid when I went back to my food.

When Sasuke asked " how come you have kitty ears on your head Harri"?  I grinned before answering,.

" it's mainly because of my Kekkai Genkai but I'll let you know more later when we return home "  I replied.

He looked confused " why would I go to your house"? He says with an adorable confused expression on his face when Mikoto speaks up " because dear you have to cement the bond in his nest remember? And he also has other mates and needs to be with them as well" .

Sasuke nodded with a "oh" in understanding and went back to eating when I questioned him about his favorite food , color and if he wanted to become a ninja.

After my barrage of questions we started talking about pranks and games until dessert which was dango . Even though I didn't know it I got the fondness and loyalty of the Uchiha's that day because of my Adorable face and smart mind.

Time skip

As we were about to leave I tugged on Mikoto's sleeve and she told everyone that we were going to go have girl talk while Sasuke packed and took my to her room and sat on the bed next to me.

" Now what did you want to ask me sweety "? She asked with a worried smile.

I took a deep  breath and asked a question that's been bothering me for a while. 

" well I just wanted to know ..how heats work because most of the books I have don't explain to me how to care for myself during it or even what happens during heat".

She nodded in understanding " that makes sense usually a  new omega is usually taught by a elder one in their clan. Well anyway a heat is kinda like a period except it's when we are most fertile so we go into a state where we release pheromones and basically lubricate to attract our mates and usually it lasts up to a hour at most of just sex, for regular people but since you are a Nekomatait may be different".

She said with a straight  apologetic face I on the other hand wanted to crawl in a hole and die but I needed to know this stuff.

" Is there anything else you wanted to know Harri "? I thought for a moment and looked at her for a second and wondered if I should tell her of my concerns. Giving caution to the wind I replied.

" yes...you know that I have an unusual amount of mates ..I worry that maybe I'm not giving everyone enough affection or time and I don't want any of my mates to feel unloved or unwanted because I love all of them so so much".

She nodded and pulled me into her arms " well has anyone spoken up and said they felt left out"? When I shook my head she smiled.

" see Harri you are doing just fine I know you worry because it seems daunting to have so many mates but I know you will get through it. And if you need a structured schedule to rotate between mates you could do that as well though at the moment I think you are fine. But Know that if you need anything from advice to a place to go to get space from your mates my arms are open". She finished comfortingly. 

I threw myself at her overwhelmed by my emotions and the happiness I was feeling. " Thank you mom" slipped out of my mouth before I could stop it and she simply held me closer in response until I relaxed " Your welcome love" her only reply .

Then there was a knock at the door and Diarmuid's voice came from the other side " hey Harri we are all ready to go so enough girl talk for today we can't have you corrupting each other with more ways to make our lives miserable" he said a teasing voice.

Mikoto and I giggled and walked out of the room with wild smiles on our faces " we have no idea of what you are talking about" Mikoto and I said at the same time. 

That made all of them pale and us to bust out laughing and after fare wells we Headed back to the Hyuga compound our temporary home.

As soon as I walked in the door I threw myself in Garou's arms " I missed you so so much "!

I said as I laid kisses all over his face which he allowed as he scented me in return when I wiggled to be put down then tackled Jirou who came out of the bathroom in nothing but a towel and I only got to give him two kisses before he held me out at arms length with a exasperated expression on his face like I was a bad puppy or something.

I pouted as he said " harri what did I say about kisses"? .

I mumbled the answer but he told me to speak up " I can kiss you on the cheek but until I am of age some of my mates might not be comfortable with me kissing them on the mouth".

I said petulant and slightly embarrassed.

He nodded and gave me a hug before setting me down and going to put his clothes on when Naruto and Sasuke burst out laughing while my other mates smirked or chuckled.

I stomped my foot " it isn't funny all I wanted was some cuddles, you are all mean"! I yelled with a wobbly voice for some reason very offended  and ran out the door but before I could get far I ran into Kakashi and my two new imprints that were headed to my wing( shino and Muta).

Kakashi picked me up into my arms when I tried to run round him. He wiped the tears I didn't even know were coming down my face and said " hey come on don't cry pup whats the matter" . He crooned 

I put my face in his neck to breathe in his sent to calm down. " I- I was just giving Garou and Jirou kisses because I missed them but Jirou pushed me away and made me say the kissing rules when some of the others started laughing  and it made me feel like they were laughing at my mate rejecting me so I ran off"  I sniffled.

Diarmuid and Garou were there then taking me from Kakashi " we weren't laughing at you because Jirou has a stick up his butt about kisses" Diarmuid said in a soothing voice .

" yeah kid we were laughing because you looked like a wet kitten when you pout" Garou said which made Kakashi and Muta death glare at him thinking it would upset me but I surprised them by giggling.

" Sorry for freaking out like that you guys I don't know what came over me " I said as we headed back to our rooms .

" its probably omega instincts showing out so don't worry about it".  Garou said as we headed into the room where Itachi was calming down and explaining to Sasuke and Naruto about my response ,

As soon as I was let down they each have me a hug and apologies (though Narutos was delivered with some tears) i simply forgave them and hugged them back.

Then I headed onto our ridiculously long bed and had Sasuke and shino on one side of me and Kakashi and Muta on the other.

I leaned over and gave Sasuke a kiss first since he was the youngest and it felt like lightning was going through my veins as I felt the bond cement in place ...it reminded me of how Kakashi's bond felt but different.

I  turned to shino next and kissed him when he surprised me and pulled me close to him as our bond was cemented with a warm buzz that sounded like the wings of his kikachu.

I  turned one more time to Muta and gently kissed him on the lips he tasted like peppermint and his bond felt like cool water when it cemented much like Tokuma's .

With my bonds taken care of I curled up in the middle of my newest mates as all of my mate bonds buzzed and hummed in content except for Hoheto and Tokuma's..I missed them hopefully they will return home tomorrow I thought as I sent longing and love through our bonds which they responded to with love and reassurance.

Chapter Text

Harri POV
I woke before all of my mates because I was so excited!!

I quickly got out of my nest accidentally kicking some of my mates on the way out...sorry Muta. But Today Tokuma and Hoheto were coming home

! And it was Shino's birthday so as I was making breakfast I made his favorite a salad with winter melon mixed in and on the side I made some crêpes with banana for dessert.

For Hoheto I made stirfry with chicken  and some Miso soup and lastly for Tokuma I made rice balls with tuna and chicken on the inside (also Sasukes favorite) with some pickled vegetables on the side.

As I started on my other mates food I heard the front door open and I poked my head out of the kitchen to see who it was it was a weary Tokuma covered in dirt and God knows what else.

I put all the food under a stasis charm and made sure everything  was turned off.

Before I ran down  the hallway and threw myself at him squeezing  him for dear life he simply  sighed and hugged me back knowing it was a lost cause trying  to pry me off.

He headed  to the bathroom with me still clinging  to him (getting  dirty in the process)when I asked " tokuma where's hoheto"?

"Did he return with you "?  I asked again, impatient.

He ran his fingers  through my  hair " don't worry harri he is just giving  the hokage our mission  report . Now let's get in the tub we are both filthy". He answers.

After he turned  off the water filling  the tub and started  to undress.  I did the same and we both got in the humongous  tub and sighed  in relief. 

I grabbed  a shampoo  bottle and looked  towards  him. Reading my mind he bended over so I could  wash his hair scrubbing  thoroughly  and rinsing. 

After I washed  his hair and was scrubbing his back I started  to massage  his shoulders  that were full of tension. 

He sighed " harri that feels great remind  me to get you some dango later" I smirked.  " alright no take backs ".

I said in a sing song voice  which made hoheto who just walked  in and was undressing groan " Tokuma what have you promised  him  you know he is a devious creature in nature" he said  with a dry tone and I gasped heart out on my chest.

"I must be dreaming  tokuma  am I hallucinating  or did hoheto joke"? I asked playfully  which made hoheto splash  me as he got in the tub .

I paddled  over to him and gave him a hug breathing  in his scent  of honeysuckle deeply. He started  lathering  my hair  with my strawberry  shampoo  and I stopped  cuddling  him to do the same. When I remembered  " o just so you guys know I got some new mates while you  were gone..you may know some  Itachi uchiha, Shisui uchiha, Saskue Uchiha, Shino Aburame, and Muta Aburame ". 

As the list of names fell from my mouth  tokuma  laughed  while hoheto  sighed  and simply  continued  on rinsing  out my hair.  " only you harri we were only gone for two days ".

Hoheto  says exasperated " to be honest  I'm surprised  there aren't  more , afterall harri is releasing  pheromones  attracting  mates all day long" tokuma  says as he get out of the tub.

Hoheto  nods in agreement  even though  I can tell he wish it wasn't  so . I went under water  to rinse  everything  off and when I came up for air I said " I thought  you should  know since it's shino's birthday  and we plan on celebrating it today".

I walked  out of the tub and used my Air bending  to dry my self off and I did the same for my mates who were mumbling  about  not having  time to get ready. " and you don't  have to worry about  not having  time to get him a gift I still have to make breakfast  and we are going  to his compound  to celebrate  around  3".

Hoheto  sighed  in relief  and left to get dressed  with a calm Tokuma  following.

  I followed and grabbed a silky black kimono  with purple  accents and my Crest on the back.

I then headed  back into the kitchen to finish breakfast  which was Omurice with a side of the mates favorite  vegetable,meat,or fruit.  Tokuma  stayed  to help  me with breakfast  while Hoheto  ran to go pick up the gifts for shino with an never ending  bag to help in carrying  them.

As soon as we finished  breakfast  Kabuto walked  into the kitchen  and hugged  me from behind  with a gruff " goodmorning  " " well goodmorning  to you to Kabuto will you help us carry breakfast  into the dining room "? He nodded  and grabbed  his plate and Fu's and left the room I shook my head and levitated  the rest that Tokuma  and i couldn't  carry and set it on the table  where most of mates sat.

Hoheto  being  the last to return  and everyone  dug in after telling  shino happy birthday.  " hey shrimp how old are you  turning "? Garou asked shino while some (Jirou) huffed that Garou  had no manners.  " I am turning  5" was shino's quiet response as he slowly at his breakfast  as if to savor it.

"Then you will be the eldest out of us " sasuke says taking a break  from trying  to steal some of muta's rice balls. " not really  since I turn 7 on the 31st and the rest of you who are under 14 will age a year on the 30th" I broke in  around  my pancakes. 

While Sasuke,Itachi,Shisui, Neji,Naruto,Ko,Kabuto, Fu,And Shino stared at me in shock.When naruto broke the silence " that is awesome  Dattebayo! But what about  our actual birthdays "? I shrugged " we will still celebrate  them unless  you oppose  and even if you do we will still have a small gathering " I replied.

  After swallowing  so Jirou  or hoheto  wouldn't  scold  me for talking  with my mouth full. Most nodded  at my answer and regular conversation resumed naruto was telling  sasuke and Neji that they would be able  to enter the academy  sooner  because  of 'super aging', .

While kakashi and Garou were betting  on how many mates I would get today much to diarmuid's amusement  and Jirou's chargin .

Muta and Shino seemed fine with listening and only talking  when needed  while Ko spoke to Fu and Kabuto.  I turned to Muta who was closest  on my right and started conversation.  " muta when is your birthday?  if you don't mind me asking "?

  " it's February 23 , what about yours"?  "July 31st " I said with a laugh for now every 31st was my birthday.  Muta's lips turned  up at the corner  when I asked " Is your food alright ? I heard from a little birdy*Diarmuid *that rice balls with tuna was a favorite  of yours  does it taste alright I wasn't  sure if I got the taste right".

He nodded and continued  to eat  and after swallowing asked me " I guessing that you have been cooking  for awhile do you enjoy it"? I nodded  " yes but I honestly enjoy baking more ..o I meant to ask you do you think I should  make a vanilla cake with strawberries  or chocolate cake with  strawberries  for shino" I asked as quietly  as I could.

He pondered  for a second  before  telling  me to go with vanilla.  After that I finished  eating  as well as the rest of my mates and they carried  their dishes into the kitchen  and put them in the dish Washer.

Then the rest of us except  Kakashi  and shino/muta(who had an in village  mission but would be home before the party  left  to complete it and the others needed to party plan and greet guests.)went to a training ground to train and relax  since they had the day off .

I was working  with Jirou  on my  Air bending  (that I was forbidden  to do unless he was present because  he was the only one other than Diarmuid  who had enough  control  over  the element  to catch me) while the others worked on mastering  their animal form or relaxed eating the snacks I made before  we left  the house. When I heard Naruto scream and yell "S-snake"! I went over with Jirou to Investigate despite  him telling  me to stand back but he didn't know I was a parslemouth either .

I went up and saw a black snake that was huge that had purple and  gold scales poised to strike and when Jirou  moved to kill it i shouted "Wait "!   And turned to the snake "I am sorry we disturbed  you but please  do not attack  my mates they didn't  mean to bother you". 

The snake immediately  turned to me relaxed and said "A speaker it has been so long we thought  your kind extinct ! And I will not hurt your mates as long as they stop me from giving my master a message . I was taking a nap to heal my injuries when the loud one stepped on me!"

The snake replied with some annoyance  my mates were staring  at me and the snake in the snake in shock when Garou  snapped  out of it and asked me "harry what is it saying "?  .

" he said that he was napping  to heal an injury  when naruto  stepped  on him and that he needs to give his master a message".

I replied  and turned  to the snake  "Would you like me to carry you to your master to help  you complete  your mission  as an apology  for my mate stepping  on you"?  The snake nodded " yes speaker  I would like your aid and master would love to meet you a true speaker"! 

I turned  to Garou " alpha can you come with me to take him to his master to finish  his mission  he is to injured to do it himself  and we can come right back after please "? I asked .

Far thought  for a second  and said " who is his master ?and is he close?" I asked the snake and he replied "Master is a strong  ninja and is in the village  not far  from here".

Was the reply and Garou  nodded " alright  then we can take the snake home but Jirou  I want you to stay here with the others  and Hoheto can come with us". 

Jirou  and others like Ko looked  like they wanted  to disagree  but a look from Tokuma  made them hold their  peace. 

I Turned to the snake and picked  him up which was a struggle  because  he weighed  as much as me if not more  but I managed  and we headed  towards  the mystery ninja following the snakes directions.

We ended up at the laboratory  of science  in front of an office numbered 101  I knocked  and waited  for a response.  When a deep nearly hissy voice said " come in" .

Garou  opened  the door and went in I followed him hoheto coming  behind  me.

When the snake slithered  impossibly  fast(considering  he was injured before I healed him a second ago)to the man behind  the desk that held papers and vials with liquids and books on the bookcase  behind  him. 

"Master!Master! I brought  you  a speaker  who healed  me and he is very powerful!  he would make you a good mate for hatchlings!" 

I blushed  deep red when the man looked  up from his work to stare at me. He had silky  black hair and pale white skin with gold-green snake like eyes and a lithe but strong body.

As soon as I met his eyes I imprinted and everyone  froze. Until he spoke " how is it possible  that I am tethered  to a Child? That you are even worthy to be by my side.. Who are you ?"

 Insulted I sat at the chair  in Front of his desk "firstly  I am horrified of your manners  Orochimaru. Is this how you treat guests that brought you your injured  summons? Secondly I am Harri potta the high priestess  of Megami no Jinja  nice to meet you Alpha" I said smoothly. 

He stared at me before  laughing  , after which he stopped  and leaned  into my face which made Garou  growl in warning that he ignored and asked " I have heard rumors  that your clan and their Mates receive  immortality  ..is this true"? 

I looked  at him and answered  honestly " you really  get straight  to the point  don't you..while it is true that you will no longer age you technically  still can be killed either by a stronger opponent  or by my death and this is only if I am your Bonded. And Orochimaru  I don't  want a mate that is only with  me for their own gain. I want love ,trust,and many children and to get that I need worthy  people as well  and at the moment you aren't.  I don't  know if I want a bond with you if you cannot  be a partner to me. If you won't even try to be my mate and husband..so I just need some  time to think and I'm pretty  sure you do as well . If you decide  to actually  Try I'll be at the Hyuga compound  but until then .."

I shrugged  and got up to leave but he went to grab me and ended  up with a knife  held to his throat  by Garou .

I turned  around  and put a book on the table  for him to read to better explain  our situation  and what our mateship could  be like and left with Hoheto and  Garou  on either side of me after a quiet " goodbye " to the snake.

After we left we met up with my mates at the training  ground  and I simply laid down with Tokuma  and Ko who were relaxing on a picnic blanket wanting  some comfort  from what happened.

Garou  must have told my other mates what happened  through  mind speak because  he didn't  say anything  out loud  yet my mates looked  at me with understanding  or rage on my behalf. 

An hour  passed  and we were due at the Aburame  compound after  fixing  my hair  and made sure that all the presents were in the black hole of a bag we headed  to the party.

When we arrived  we were greeted  by shino and his dad who was staring  at me in curiosity as well as another boy that had a mark on his cheek when I bowed back to him and looked in his eyes I imprinted.

I continued  as if nothing  happened because I didn't want to deal with another mate at the moment.

I,sasuke, Naruto, neji,Kabuto, fu and Ko were led to the other clan children  our age while my other  mates mingled I could  feel my new imprints eyes on my back.

Ignoring it I sat under a tree not wanting  to play at the moment  when I saw someone  sit next to me starting to stare at the clouds.  It was a boy with his hair  in a spiky ponytail  who asked " mind if I join you "? I shook my head and said with a smile " you already  sat down so I don't  see the point  of asking  but I'm glad for the company ".

" I'm harri  and you are "? I said  looking at him and he opened  his eyes  and met mine " shikamaru" I immediately imprinted  again.

His eyes  widened  and got a calculating  glint when Naruto  ran up to us with a boy that had a dog on his head and red triangle  tattoos on his face by his side.

" harri this is my new friend  kiba and his partner  Akamaru! Kiba and Akamaru  this is my mate harri"!

I smiled  at them both that made them blush and greeted  the cute puppy  first  who jumped into my lap" hello Akamaru  it's nice to meet you!you are so handsome  aren't you" I cooed as I scratched  behind  his ear  and looked  up to kiba " it's nice to meet you too kiba" and I imprinted  again  and stared at him I surprise.

I simply  handed  Akamaru  back and said  " I'll deal with this later you guys but I'm tired I am going  to take a nap for a second  and I'll play later ok "?

I said  as I leaned on shikamaru and closed my eyes. I felt kiba and naruto sit down next to me and i fell into a light sleep with my mates around  me.

I woke up about  30 minutes  later to a camera  flashing  on us and what must have been Shikamaru's mother and Diarmuid  taking pictures  of all of us sleeping  against  the tree.

Shikamaru  and the others woke up as I finished  rubbing  my eyes . "How long have we been asleep  harri"? Kiba asked after yawning  " about  30 minutes just in time for cake and presents " I said  as I got up and headed  to the large  table  that held food and presents.

Naruto  sat on one side  of me while Kiba sat on the other and we all sung shino happy birthday  and at the moment  was happy. 

After the song was sung I got up to go get Shino's  present  from me while they cut the strawberry  cake I made but I ran into someone  on my way back who resembled  Shikamaru  and his dad except  he had green eyeliner.  We imprinted  and before  he could ask questions I simply  grabbed  his hand and headed  to the table " I'll answer  all your questions  after the party  I already  have  to talk to Shikaku and Tsume just hold on until then".

And I sat with him next to me as I gave shino the presents  from me and my mates.

As everyone  dug into the cake I was pleased  that everyone  seemed  to love it especially  the akimichi one with diamonds  on his cheeks asked " does anyone  know who made this cake "? I spoke up " I am the one who made it akimichi San do you have questions about  the recipe " I asked and when he looked at me we imprinted  as he stared  at me in shock  I put my fingers on my nose like jirou does when I cause mischief. 

Everyone  laughed  having guessed what happened.  Looks like I'll have to ask Choza to stay over as well.

After the party ...

I had Garou  on one side of me with Kakashi (the rest of my mates returned  home)on the other .I had just finished  explaining  once again  how my mateship would work to Tatsuma,Shikamaru, Shikaku, Ensui,Yoshino,Choza,Makaro,Tsume,and Kiba.

  The only one's that had concerns  was Ensui( over the age gap) ,shikaku (how being a consort would affect  his son) ,and Choza who had the same concerns as Shikaku. After I explained  that they could still be shinobi  it would affect  what missions they could go on due to their  status  and it would be the same in all ninja villages  my mates came from .

Because  if my mate were to die in a skirmish  I would probably  start a war and win so it's just a very delicate situation  but know that I will try not to hamper your son or nephew's  career was what I said in reply. 

Then after the serious  talk was out  of the way Yoshino invited  me over for lunch  the next day that I accepted  and my new mates and I returned  home. When  I started  to make dinner  and dessert. 

For Garou  I made him a burger  and fries because  he said he was craving it ,Diarmuid  got boar with grilled corn,Shikamaru  got Mackeral and miso,Kakashi  also got miso soup with eggplant  and rice with grilled chicken, Naruto  got ramen and pickled  vegetables,  Neji got soba with yogurt  since he was fond of it,Jirou got a chicken  salad  with sunflower  seeds  and stir fry on the side.

Kabuto  got Jack mackerel  with miso broth and fruit on the side,Fu got strawberry  corn salsa with chips and guacamole, shino,muta,and Sasuke  got rice balls with multiple  fillings  and sides of meat and vegetables, itachi and shisui got onigiri  with cabbage and seaweed  with softened  plums with vanilla yogurt, kiba got steak with green beans, hoheto, ko,and tokuma got a snapper with grilled mango salsa, Makaro got a pork chop saute with peaches , ensui got pork chops  with potatoes and tatsuma got pineapple  chicken satay.

Lastly  was Orochimaru's meal of soft boiled  eggs  with grilled fish. As I gave everyone  their meals I went to the door  to see if Orochimaru  decided to  come  when I saw no one I honestly  felt hurt. And as a tear fell  down  my face a hand was put on my shoulder  " don't  cry little  one for I am here" .

Orochimaru  said and my ears perked  up and my tail swayed  side to side  quickly  Indicating  my happiness.  I hugged  him tightly  around  the waist  and breathed  in his scent  and I finally  felt the weight  that was sinking  in my stomach disappear  .

I pulled  him down the hallway  to introduce  him to my other mates " I heard you liked eggs so I made you some soft boiled eggs with fish so I hope that's ok" I said  to him and he smirked  and replied " that is decent  child I have heard from others  that you cook surprisingly  well so I shall see for myself if rumor is true" .

When we entered  the dining  room where my mates were sitting  at there spots most of those who knew  who Orochimaru  was paled when they saw him and some like hoheto  nearly  passed  out when I said he was one of my newly  bonded.

When Orochimaru  and I sat everyone  dug in and there eyes brightened  at my delicious  cooking.  I was currently  watching Orochimaru  take a bite  of the egg with nervous  eyes.

"How is it "? I asked and he looked  at me and said " it is decent " and continued to eat and surprisingly  enough  he ended  up conversing  with Kabuto  and Tatsuma  which made me happy  because  I was worried  he would be  isolated  from my other mates. 

After dinner  when we went to our bedroom  I the bed had already  enlarged  itself  for my new mates it took up half of the room seems calling  it a nest is a pretty  close  description. 

When some of my mates voiced that they didn't  want  to sleep in the nest I gave the puppy  eyes  and they relented  except  for Orochimaru.  " Maru please  you can sleep right  next to me "!  " no I refuse  to sleep next to other ninja-" "  but we need to for our health " " that is pure superstition  harri that new mates must sleep in the omegas  nest-" " I'll  give you a new jutsu " I said  and he wavered.  " and what does this Jutsu do" ? " it let's you see fragments  of the future " I replied.

  And he was immediately  in the middle  of the bed sitting  up waiting  for me to finish  our bond. I giggled  and crawled  up to him and gave him a kiss. I felt a surge of energy  and the ultimate  feeling  of right I tasted eggs  and ..was that green apples? When I snapped  back to reality.  Orochimaru  was looking  at me in concern  and amazement  "little one does that happen every time  a bond is finalized "? I shook my head no .

He hummed  and started  mumbling  about making  other studies  and experiments to discover  what it meant when I turned to Shikamaru.

  When I kissed him I felt shadows  rushing  through  my veins  and he tasted  of a dark shadow. .. like dark cherries.  When I pulled  away he was surprisingly  not unconscious  which was unusual because  most his age would have been so.

 I shrugged  it off and turned  to Ensui and kissed him as well. If I thought  Shikamaru  was shadows  Ensui was complete darkness  and tasted  of sin and dark chocolate yummy.

I then turned to kiba and when I kissed him I saw myself  running  in the woods enjoying  the hunt feeling  the wildness  rush through me.

Blood on the tip of my tongue as he and I chased and chased one another and our prey.  When I pulled  away his pupils  were dilated   until  I shook  him " are you ok"? I asked worried. 

He nodded  with a smirk and said he was fine.

I still worried  but  decided not to push.

  I turned to Tatsuma ,he kissed  me and I felt fire rushing  through my veins .

I heard his heart beating  and the taste  of spice on my lips. 

I saw us entangled  together  making  love as if our lives  depended  on it when the scene went dark.

When I pulled  away I put my hand on my lips and blushed " did you see that too"? I asked and he nodded  a blush worse than mine on his cheeks .

"what did you see that made you blush so much harri" shisui asked mischievously.

I sent a  low pain stinging  hex at him and grumbled  " Nunya business  shisui" and turned to Makaro to escape  Shikamaru,Kakashi and Ensui's knowing  looks. 

I kissed  him and tasted peaches  and once again  had an out of body experience .

I saw all of my mates souls tethered  to mine and was snapped  back into reality  when Makaro pulled  away with a look of wonder  in his eyes as he looked down  at me. 

I simply  pulled  him with me to the center  of the bed on the other side  of me Orochimaru  on the other.

Then snuggled  into Orochimaru's  side as my other mates  got in around  us. I closed my eyes pleased  with the humming  of my mate bonds. 

Chapter Text

Harri pov

     I woke alone in our large nest of a bed to Sasuke shaking me gently. "Harri it's time for breakfast!"  I stretched  out and rubbed  my eyes and I heard kiba laugh. " harri really  does act like a cat!" He said from the foot of the bed. I threw a pillow  at him in response and it hit him square on the face.

"Hey!" Kiba said  and threw the pillow back at me but I dodged. Sasuke  simply hid behind  me out of range for now . I stuck out my tongue at Kiba ears straight up and my tail waving back and forth playfully  until hoheto's voice calling us from the dining  room broke our little game. 

When I entered  the dining  table I sat in itachi's lap and made my self comfortable. Itachi sighed  and continued  to eat ,while Ko looked as if he was going  to say it wasn't  proper  for us to sit how we were when it was Jirou  who stopped  him. 

" Dont bother Ko he would just move to someone else's  lap or refuse to move..we have a very stubborn  mate".  Jirou said exasperated  after taking  a bit of rice and vegetables. 

"And dont you ever forget  it !" I said poking  my head out from Itachi's chest. And everyone  but Orochimaru  and fu laughed (they just smirked). And I looked over to shisui's plate and made puppy eyes at him.

Since I already ate my Omurice I asked "Shisui can I have a bite of your rice ball please?" He nodded  "sure hari come here" and held the other half  of the rice ball with chopsticks to me. I leaned  in to take a bite but quick as lightning  he kissed me on the lips and ate it!!!

I spluttered in shock while everyone  laughed  at  me getting  teased for once. I pouted and turned  to Ensui  who was on the other side of itachi" Ensui everyone's  being mean to me! And I'm still hungry!".

Ensui grunted with a smirk " I know come here ya rugrat ." And held his arms open I left itachi's lap to go into his he and shika gave some awesome  cuddles. 

Neji who was across from Ensui spoke up "harri you can have some of my pork and rice if you want." I looked at him  with a smile full of happiness " yes I would really  like some neji I always  knew you were such a caring  and sweet alpha to little ole me" 

I replied  and thankfully  took the small leftovers  from his bowl while he blushed deep red. When Naruto blurted out "HERE HARRI! You can have some of my ramen too!" I shook my head " thank you Naruto for being nice enough  to give me some of your Ramen  but I'm full now ...but you can give me some kisses and cuddles!" I replied  and got off Ensui's lap to come around  the table. 

Naruto  squeaked turned red and ran after throwing "Sorry harri I gotta go take a bath and go train with Sasuke !" Dragging  the poor soul out with him  who was yelling " let go of me you baka!" All throughout  the hallway. 

Diarmuid  got up with a chuckle  saying  he'd  keep an eye on them. After that it was like a flood gate all my mates getting  ready for the day while others(Orochimaru ,Ensui and hoheto) had left for work for the day. 

Though once again  I kissed and scented  my mates that were leaving  no matter  how they resisted (Orochimaru  making death threats..  until I told him I simply  wanted  his wonderful  scent on me to protect me from potential  bad people ,who fear the great, godlike snake Sanin ). Yes I know I was laying  it on thick but it worked  to stop his protest  by appealing  to his alpha  ego ,pride,and possive tendencies. 

🍻🙈😈😁😁😎

Later in one of the Hyugas courtyards Kabuto, Hinata, Tenten, Fu,Naruto, Neji , Shino, Muta, Shikamaru, Itachi,  Shisui, Sasuke, Kiba, Ko, Tokuma, Tatsuma, and Makaro were trying  to change into their animal  forms or perfecting the change in some cases. Aka Itachi's, Shisui,Tokuma,and Tatsuma under the watchful eyes of Jirou, Diarmuid and Garou. 

While I was stuck finishing  up paperwork under a tree cuz I let it build because I didn't want to do it earlier.  When I finished  and stretched  out on the grass I saw Kakashi  leaving  and immediately  ran up my tree I was under as silently  as I could going in a crouch and using  my magic and chakra  to cover my scent. 

I waited  listening  for  every  little sound  ears swiveling and tail very still as I waited  for him to pass under the tree . 

When I sprung just at the right moment and landed on his shoulders and immediately felt a kunai at my throat and cold eyes staring  at mine until  he realised  it was me.

Kakashi  paled and his eyes widened " harri ! Dont ever do that again you startled me and I almost hurt you! "  and i just bit my lip feeling  guilty   as he sniffed me for injuries " I'm sorry  Kakashi  I just wanted  to surprise you and practice  my stealth  skills.'' He pulled me into a hug and said " it's ok but next time tell me beforehand  so we can do it right together ok?"  And smiled at me with his eyes closed  and I nodded  happily. 

Before  I remembered  why I wanted  to stop him. I looked  up at him "Kakashi  where were you going?" 

And he shook head " Maaa maa you dont have to worry I'm just going  to meet up with some friends  that's  all". 

I was already  jumping  up and down before he finished. "Can I come to ?!!! Pleeeease Kakashi?"  I Pleaded with big doe green eyes. He thought  about  it before  nodding  yes. And I squealed in excitement  and before  we left  he went back to let the others  know  he was taking  me out for an outing  and we left.

#####$$$$$$$$$$

      We arrived  in a place that was full of other ninja relaxing.  The first person  who caught sight of us was a woman with ruby red eyes and beautiful  black hair.  " Kakashi  who is that?" She asked bringing  most of the rooms  attention  onto us . He pulled  out his orange book to avoid  most of the curious  stares before replying

" Yo! This is my mate Harri Potta and he is the High priestess  of the Megumi no Jinja ". He replied  and was bombarded  by a man with a cigarette in his mouth that I knew as Asuma and another  that held a senbon in his mouth that smelled  of a sweet tasting poison before  I was pulled  into a hug by the red eyed woman.

"Aww you are just to darned cute , it's nice to meet you I'm Kurenai!"

I snuggled  into her  warmth enjoying  her attention when I heard a loud buoyant voice say "Yosh! My eternal rival has finally  found a mate that is a shining  gold fountain of youth!" 

I turned to see a man with a bowl cut and thick eyebrows  who was smacking Kakashi  on the back in congratulations  with tears streaming  down his face. And for some reason  I went up to him and patted  him on his leg saying " there, there mister dont cry". 

While secretly  breathing  in his comforting scent of green tea.

He immediately  stopped and gave me a smile saying " I shall not shed tears if it saddens  you young one!" 

We imprinted  as soon as he made eye contact  and Kakashi  choked  out a horrified  " No kami please"  before  the one with the senbon in his mouth  started  laughing so hard he had to sit down.

The one I just imprinted  on struck a pose and kissed my hand " young one I am known as Might Guy!! I am overwhelmed  by your sheer youthfulness  and shall forever  be by your side!" 

Kakashi  made the sound  of a dying  whale and I giggled " well it's nice to meet you guy I am Harri.. is it true that you are the strongest  taijutsu ninja in the land of fire?" I couldn't  help but asking 

That must have been to much for Kakashi  who passed out caught by the one with the senbon in his mouth. 

I went over to the couch  where  the Ninja set him down  and put my glowing  green  hand on his head.

" he'll  be fine he just fainted from shock". I said when I sensed  nothing  wrong. And I looked up at the one with senbon  in his mouth  and asked him " what is your name?  I must have missed it." 

" call me Genma kid". And I imprinted  again  making the senbon in  Genma's mouth fall to the floor  I laughed  at his face and turned  to Asuma. "Do we have a camera  in here? because  I'd like(love) to forever  remember  his face" I said innocently. 

Genma snapped  out of it after my comment  and Picked up his senbon . Then shook his head " Kakashi  is going to kill me over a brat ...why couldn't  it have been a hot woman  with curves " . "I can hear you ya know"  I said and Kurenai hit him hard upside  the head.

When a man with brown hair and brow eyes appeared  in front  of me in a swirl of leaves and said in a toneless  voice " is Taichou  injured  I can take him to the infirmary right away!" I nodded  no " No he is not injured  he just fainted  from shock of me imprinting on Gai  mr...?"  " I am called Yamato " he said and I imprinted  for the third time ... That day.

Yamato  simply  stared at me as if I was a fascinating  specimen  while Gai exclaimed " Seems like Harri's fountain  of youth is so bright  that many are drawn to him" with a bright smile that actually  lessened  my stress while Asuma watched as if we were a soap opera and Kurenai looked exasperated and worried. 

Finally  that's when Kakashi  started to stir when he finally  opened  his eyes he took my hands  and looked  into my eyes. 

" please tell me it was a Nightmare  Harri or that I was hallucinating-" I shook my head and said " it wasn't  a Nightmare  Kakashi  stop being  so dramatic...everything  will work out". I said  and kissed his forehead  I then stood after saying  I was going  to go get Kakashi  some water when I immediately  bumped  into someone  as soon as I walked  out of the door.

I looked  up to apologize  when I was grabbed  by the back of my shirt and met a scarred stern face that probably gave other kids nightmares.

"What were you doing in the joinin meeting  area kid only ninja are permitted  in here".

I frowned  at him and glared " first of all I'm not Kid my name is harri and my mate Kakashi  fainted  after I imprinted  on Might Gai so I'm going to get him some water if you would put me down. How rude can you be honestly!" I said to him glaring. He laughed  as did the three behind  him and put me down.  " I'm ibiki this is Aoba ,and Santa". He said pointing  to a man wearing  sunglasses  that had brown hair that stuck up in the same gravity defying  way as Kakashi's, and a man with long red hair.  

And I imprinted  on all three of them , before  they  could speak  I simply  waved my hand into the meeting  room " you guys just go in there while I get us some refreshments  because  this is going  to take awhile  and Kakashi  will explain  the situation  with you and when I come back I'll answer  any questions  you might have." 

The one called Aoba laughed  " alright kid you got some guts you are probably  the only  one who doesn't  cry at being around  ibiki".

" well that's what happens  when you are mated to scarier  people". I said  vaguely and continued  to walk away.

Aoba and Santa went into the room while ibiki said he would Help  me get the needed  items when I asked why he was accompanying me. And as we walked  through  the halls  I spoke " you know I'm not going  to run away right?" His only response  to my statement  was a simple  twitch  in his eyebrow  but his only reply was " I am not going  to let a child run amok a ninja building  that holds classified  information.." I pouted at him 

" now you are making  me sound  as if I'm a delinquent  or something  I wouldn't  be The High Priestess  of The Megumi no Jinja  shrine if I ran about  like a hoodlum ". I huffed and he just continued  to walk but by the stiffness  in his fingers  I could  tell he was surprised at my status.

When we reached  the cafeteria  area  where quite a few chunin or Genin Were eating. When we entered  everyone stared  at us until ibiki went over to a table  and came back with five other ppl to help us carry the food and drinks.

" harri this is Kotetsu"- he smelled of leather-" ,Izumo"- lemongrass-" Iruka"- cake with apples and cinnamon- '' Iwashi"- lavender and mint- ''shimon"- books- ''and zaji this is Harri the priestess  of Megumi  no Jinja."

I imprinted  on all of them.

#######

Everyone was now in the joinin meeting  room . When I first came back with all my imprints Kakashi just slumped as if he was done with the world whose Asuma whistled.  " Damn kid are you trying  to steal of of the leafs elite  ninja  or what?" 

I scowled  " no I am not trying  to steal elite  ninja  I'm trying  to find strong mates to help me rebuild  my clan!"

Immediately  multiple  voices  broke out until ibiki  silenced them . "Let Harri speak and then you may ask questions  until then be silent " he rumbled letting killing intent out before  reeling  it in. 

I put my hand on his and he stared at me in confusion. I smiled  " thank you  for quieting  everyone  down" and he simply  nodded  then turned  to look at the others  in the room stoically. But I wasn't  the only one to see his blushed  neck nor his protective stance behind  me.

"I know a lot of you are confused so I'll explain  everything  to the best of my ability  and if you have any questions I'll answer  them".

" Firstly  I am the high priestess  of Megumi  no Jinja  and the last Nekomata of the Potta clan. My current mates are Kakashi ,Garou  Hatake,Diarmuid Dior, Jirou Tenzou, Kabuto Potta, Fu Yamanaka, Naruto  Uzamaki,"- iruka's face twitched into one of hatred  until I glared  at him daring  him to say something-"Neji Hyuga, Hoheto Hyuga, Ko Hyuga, Tokuma Hyuga, Shino Aburame, Muta Aburame, Shikamaru  Nara,Ensui Nara,Itachi Uchiha, Shisui Uchiha, Sasuke  Uchiha, Kiba Inuzuka,Makaro Akimichi,Tatsuma Aburame and Orochimaru."

Some paled hearing  how many  names I had said others because  of Orochimaru. 

"The reason  I have so many mates Is because  of my Kekkai genkai it ..is wild and my mates keep me grounded .As well as  my instincts screaming  at me to repopulate as soon as I come to maturity  which will be between  the ages of 14-16. Now many of you are older than me but I will age on the 30th or 31st with my mates under the age of 14 every month".

 " Also if you become  one of my bonded ...you will have a form if immortality..you will stop aging but that doesn't  mean you cant be killed. If injured  bad enough  you will die but if I am killed  all of my mates will join me . Now I have had people  accuse  me of stealing  ninja or bloodline limits from the ninja  villages.  But that is not my aim nor is it to start  a new regime.  All I want Is a family that will prosper ,with love and mates to stand by my side!"

"Lastly all of my bonded  gain the title  of consort  as well as the option of becoming  my familiar or warriors  that shall carry my Crest. If you do become  my familiar  you can continue  to be ninja to your  village..but all I ask is that you put family first. Also you may get new abilities  after becoming my consort  and or my Familiar ".

" Some like Kakashi  can now take form of their soul spirits , not to mention  we can all communicate  telepathically  after the bond is cemented.  I know this  is a large shock so I shall give you time to think on what you wish to do. I shall be at the Hyuga  compound  tonight  but tomorrow  my clans compounds will be finished and we shall be there until  the 31st."

" Now all of my current mates so far have gotten  along  . I don't  expect  everyone  to be buddy buddy but neither  will I tolerate  infighting  among  my mates".

I said sternly  before  continuing 

" So I would  like to say thank you for listening  and it was nice to meet all of you ..you can get ahold  of me through all of my mates  when you make your decision. "

I said and smiled at all of my imprints in the room.

Before  turning  to leave with Kakashi  who still had his nose in that perverted  book. Gai surprisingly  on my other side and said at my confused  look " I already  said young one I would be at you side did I not. Yosh!" With a bright  smile that I returned. 

Genma also fell in step with us which led to Yamato, Zaji,Kotetsu,Izumo,Iwashi,and Santa yamanaka  following  me ot an back home.

That night after i gave a offering  to my Goddesses  i returned  to my quarters  where my imprints  waited for me to cement the bond for afterall I spent the entire  day lounging  around  with them.

I brushed Santa's  hair as he spoke to Fu of thier clans  mind techniques. Santa blushed red when I said I hoped one  of our kits would take his hair color. 

I then listened  to stories of Kotetsu' and Izumo's academy  days and missions  while spread amongst  their laps. Breathing  in their scents of leather and lemongrass. 

I played  with Yamato  and Kakashi  among  the gardens.

I then talked  to Genma  about  multiple  poisions and asking  for his aid in becoming  immune to them. He eventually  said yes but we would  start slow with a medic on hand should  it go badly. 

Then I spoke  to Gai for a long time about  work outs that strengthened  the body with Garou  and Kabuto  commenting now and then. I also gave him scrolls to study about  a south Korean  fighting  style that was so deadly  only two ppl had mastered  it.

I spoke to Zaji about  meal and baking ideas  because  even though  he was rambunctious  he had a great head of a chef.

With Iwashi I spoke to him about  music  and my paintings  I liked to do in my spare time....

But now it was time to cement  our bonds with a smooch!

I sat on the edge of the bed and beckoned  Zaji to step forward  since he was the youngest  when Aoba,Iruka,Shimon, and Ibiki that came in behind  Ko who went to join the others  in the living  room entertainment . All that were left in my room were imprints. 

I stared  at the newcomers  with hope " so have you already  made your decisions?" I asked  .

"We have" Ibiki answers

And I waited....

Iruka was the one to step forward  first " I wish for us to be together  for better  or worse because  I too want a family  so who am I to deny my destined?"

And the others nodded  or grunted  their agreement  .

I simply  turned back to Zaji who sat next to me on the edge  of the bed and I put my lips to his. He tasted  of strawberry  tart and sweets and a warmth  rushed through  my body. 

I pulled  away and Zaji was staring  at me in wonder when I moved to the next imprint since our bond was cemented.

Which was Iruka  he blushed  prettily  when I approached  and when I tasted his lip I remembered  cinnamon apple cakes I once had at the shrine and feld wind rushing  through  our veins as the bond was cemented. 

I then turned to Kotetsu and Izumo where the same feelings  returned  when my lips touched theirs but each with their own scents . Kotetsu's being leather and Izumo's lemongrass.

I turned  to iwashi and when my lips touched  his o felt  the warmth and sturdiness  of earth and our bond snapped  onto place. I couldn't  help placing  another  kiss on his cheek that made him blush.

Then I turned to Yamato  and when our lips touched I tasted  sugar flower  petals  and felt the ..ultimate  feeling  of Right.

I then turned to Gai who was shifting  nervously  and smiled  before  pulling  him into a hard kiss. He tasted  of green tea ..and I once again felt the absolute  encompassing  feeling  of Home and belonging . 

I then turned  to Santa  who was waiting  for his turn and he had to bend down for my lips to touch his. As soon as our lips touched  fire was coming  from him pouring  into  me...much like Sasukes lightning. 

I was breathing  heavily  when I moved on to Aoba.

His lips brushed  upon mine and i saw flashes of us holding  hands and holding  a toddler with his hair  and my eyes. When I pulled  away we smiled  at one another as If we knew it would become  reality.

I then turned  to Ibiki that looked as unmoving  as stone and placed my hand on his cheek. And kissed him with soft lips and once again  I saw a vision  of..a sexual  nature.  I saw myself  sitting  upon him riding  him to completion  while his hands laid  on my protruding  belly. 

When I pulled  away he looked  shaken so I took his hand  and  said threw  the link 'it is ok Ibiki we are here in the now so breathe' and he did and repaxed and nodded  at me in thanks.

By now I was exhausted but..

I  turned  to Shimon and when I pressed  my lips to his I felt the world fall away once again  and all of my new mates and old shining  brightly still attached  to me.

And that night as all of my mates slept  around  me in my nest I knew that I was on the road  to a complete  family. 

Chapter Text

Harri pov

I was buzzing with excitement along with some of my younger  mates such as Naruto and Shikamaru (who was pretending  to be laid back but I could see the glint of excitement in his eye).

We were following Garou and Diarmuid  to our new home and we couldn't wait to see it!! All of our belongings  were moved into our new home this morning so we didn't  have do deal with the hassle of moving. 

As we walked  through  the gates to the compound  I gasped.

To my right were little  buildings for shops and businesses among  green grass and humongous  trees. Spaced out evenly so it didn't  look like one was overtaking  the other.

Through  those trees  I could see a huge park that I had requested  put in for my future  children  and young mates.

To our left was the training  grounds  for us to practice  on and we had to stop as some of our group(Kiba and Sasuke)had to be wrangled  back in so we could  continue  the tour. 

And finally  I saw our home ,it stood on ten pillars of white stone and wood lined in gold,just like the temples of old.

Past the large pillars,  balconies ,and awesome  porch space and decor were two large doors that already  had guards  posted  on either side.

They opened  the doors  to the 5 story house and once again  everyone  was awed into silence. The floors  were a dark smooth  marble and the room had multiple  couches around  a fireplace. A chandelier  hung from the ceiling  the sunlight making it sparkle. 

Paintings  of immeasurable beauty  lining  the walls  and into the three halls that branched away from the waiting  room not mentioning  the stairs  along  the farthest wall that climbed  to the other floors. 

"Alright  listen up we are going  to break  up into groups  so everyone  isn't  running  around  crazy!"

Garou  rumbled 

"Garou and I are going to break  everyone  up into two groups and meet back here later for lunch around 2  which should give everyone enough time to get a rough layoutof the land". Diarmuid  said with his usual flirty smirk on his face.

"Ibiki,Gai, Genma, Yamato, Aoba,Santa,Kotetsu,Izumo, Iruka,Iwashi,Shimon, Zaji,Jirou, Kabuto, Kakashi, Fu,and Naruto are with me let's move."

Garou  barked  out and left with his group  to the hallway that led straight. 

"Alright everyone  let's go check  out the pool and hot springs first!"

Diarmuid  said joyfully and took of in its direction some of us (Kiba,Neji,Makaro etc) laughed and followed  while others  grumbled at his foolishness. 

Orochimaru, Diarmuid, Muta,Ensui,hoheto, Tokuma, Ko,Itachi, Shikamaru, and I were relaxing  in a huge pool sized natural hot tub.

While Neji,Shino,Shisui,Sasuke, Kiba, and Tatsuma played  in the pond sized swimming  pool with Diarmuid  keeping  an eye out on them.

I swam over to Orochimaru (since I was to short to touch  the bottom)and wrapped  my arms around him so I Could  relax and float.

His eye creaked open to see me smiling  up at him and he huffed. 

"Harri let go of me I am not a Floatie nor a chair."

I giggled  because  he unknowingly  rhymed  and replied " no you're comfy and I'm tired of swimming.. and in a few minutes  we have to get out anyway.."

He growled  and glared  at me probably  for disobeying  him ,which made Ensui  who was by us start to as well in my defense.

I guess  Orochimaru  wasn't  ready or open to affection  yet ..at least to an extent around others anyway. 

I released  a calming scent and rubbed  my hands up and down Orochimaru's  arms and wrapped  my legs around  his waist. 

" hey how about  I give you a back rub as repayment for giving  me cuddles  for the week, after  your  shift tomorrow  and tonight  I can give you that new jutsu  I promised,  how does  that sound?" 

I said with a calm and soothing voice and a impish  smile while both alphas  calmed down and Orochimaru debated  my offer. 

"Alright  harri  you may have your...Hugs this week but do not  expect me to let it continue." He said in a  silky voice and I squealed  in happiness  and put me head on his chest and rest before  we had to leave.

.....

After the pools we went to the guest house that was next door. We didn't  really see much other than the dining and living rooms  before we had to keep moving.  After the guest house we went  to the gardens  where flowers  and food were growing and admired  the fountains, Flowers and sculptures that littered the gardens. 

After the gardens  we went to the stables  that held horses of all kinds..as well as cats,dogs,birds,livestock, lions, tigers,seals,even penguins. 

It was basically  a farm/ zoo except  we released  the animals  once they could survive  on  their own. Which I had to explain  to Shikamaru and Tatsuma  who had concerns. 

Which led to me saying  how poaching  was illegal  in my land and had a heavy  punishment and was heavily  monitored and how I was trying  to set up a protection  movement  for endangered animals. 

While we were led to the shrine  on the clan compounds. It had a long hallway  that was supported  by pillars and there was a large  throne out of silver,gold,and black granite. It was laden  with pillows  of silk for comfort.  And next to my throne were 12 others which were for my mates....which ones were unknown. 

"Harri what are the other thrones for?" Kiba asked in a loud voice  full of curiosity  before  we could  move on to the other rooms where people actually  worship  the goddesses and rituals were performed. 

The others stared expectantly and I sighed before  facing  them.

"Those thrones are representing  the 12 zodiac  or gods of this relm , 6 of my mates that are alphas and are chosen, will sit by my side the amount same for the betas." 

"What do you mean by Chosen?"

Shisui asked sharply  with cunning  eyes that usually  hold mischief. 

"They are literally  chosen  by the gods to speak on their  behalf  that's all there is to it. Some are chosen  in their dreams others are cornered  by a servant  of the God in question and given the position ", I shrugged .

"It could be either or but one thing that is final is that if you try to sit and you are not a chosen it has consequences.." I finished 

"Ain't that the truth  kid, but we don't have to worry about that until Harri finds his last mate."  Garou  who entered  with the rest of my mates said.

I nodded  in agreement  which  made most of my mates sigh in relief  while others  like Orochimaru, Kabuto, and ibiki  had glints In their  eyes I didn't  like.

Then we headed  to our new home for lunch which was Katsudon , and for dessert  some apple and blueberry pie I made earlier.

I then went to my office  with Jirou  who would  help me write  letters  to 

• The Kazekage of Sunagakure.
• The Mizukage of Kirigakure.
• The Raikage of Kumogakure.
• The Tsuchikage of Iwagakure
• Amegakure
• The Hoshikage of Hoshigakure
• Kusagakure 
• Takigakure
• Yugakure
• Takumi village

Asking  for permission  to enter  the villages  to so the sacred  pilgrimage my predecessor's did. As well as permission  for my people  to set up a local shrine and live there  if they so choose along with citizens of the village. Not to mention bringing  back the festivities of the events.

As well as trading  offers  for some of the villages like Ame or Yugakure.

As for Takumi village  I sent proof of my purchasing  the land from the river Damiyo  with a letter explaining  why I bought  their  land and village and my intentions. I wrote that I would be coming  to visit  them in about  three months time and that I would speak to their  leaders then and they should  continue  functioning as normal .

I then sealed  the letter and sent it off with the others. 

I breathed a sigh of relief  now that it was done with.

And returned to my mates for some down time.

######

Harri pov

When I walked  into our living  room I saw Shikamaru and Ensui on the couches taking naps. Which is no surprise. 

While Fu and ko were playing shogi at the table ,when I heard  Naruto, Kiba,Sasuke, and Makaro  rough housing and the landed in the living  room in a dog pile. 

When Hoheto  was there  scolding  them saying  if they wished to play to go outside . I laughed  which brought hoheto's  attention  to me and I simply  gave him a hug and said  " it's good to be home."

I then spent  the rest of the day with my mates in the garden singing as I braided  Santa's ,Itachi's, Orochimaru's, Kabutos,Fu's,Neji's, and Muta's hair in traditional  hairstyles. 

As I played  tag and ninja with Naruto, Zaji,Kabuto, Fu,Neji,Shikamaru, Shino,Sasuke, Kiba, Tatsuma and Makaro. 

As I laid on ibiki (breathing  in his scent)as he spoke with Gai,Aoba,Kakashi, Garou, Genma,Yamato, Diarmuid, Orochimaru, Jirou,Ensui, and Shimon  about  the pilgrimage  to the other ninja  villages and all it entails.

While Kotetsu, Izumo,Iwashi, Iruka,Ko,Tokuma,Muta, Itachi, and Shisui wrestled  in their  animal forms.

I joined  in in my kitten form fighting  a fearsome spider and for some reason  that made everyone  fall out laughing.  I pouted, changed  back and went  back and flopped  on Gai snuggled into his chest ,while he ran his fingers  through my hair and lowered  his cheery voice  as I started  to fall asleep. 

I woke up to Gai carrying  me to dinner and I sat on his lap as we ate dinner. 

And i was already  dreaming when we entered  our huge nest of a bed that held silk and satin sheets with heavenly pillows and mattress that had a curtains around the bed for privacy. 

And as I latched  onto Gai and Shino in my sleep  I felt at home.

Chapter Text

28th of January 

Harry pov

I was literally vibrating with excitement as I waited along with the rest of my mates for the signal to take off.

 You see after some persuasion(threats) I was able to give all of my mates a vacation until the 1st of February.

And at the moment we were heading back to the shrine where we are celebrating our fist magical birthday thing.

As well as to check on the construction, People, trade, and overall growth of my capital city.

And instead  of walking or using carriages  to return to my home, we were riding threastrals . Now most of my mates under the age of 10 where paired with an older rider that went as follows. 

1. Kakashi and Naruto 

2. Gai and Kiba 

3. Neji and Hoheto 

4. Shikamaru and Ensui 

5. Muta and Shino

6. Kabuto and Shimon 

7. Makaro and Iruka 

8. Tatsuma and Santa

9. Yamato and I 

10. Zaji and Diarmuid 

11. Sasuke and Itachi

And everyone else was riding solo as guards for the rest of us.

Finally  Garou gave the ok to take off and I wrapped my arms around Yamato's waist as our mare took off to the sky.

I kept my eyes closed until we stopped going up ..its not like I'm afraid of heights but just watching the ground get farther away ..creeps me out.

I sighed in contentment as I looked around seeing the morning sun break through the clouds and the small trees pass by so quickly I can barely see them.

" You know I dont think I could ever tire of this..flying just feels so freeing ya know ." I said to Yamato as I leaned  back a little  to get a better look at Naruto who apparently just swallowed a bug.

"I can see why it can be appealing,  but I personally prefer being on the ground..especially with someone as trouble prone as you Harri ." He said  face still as blank as ever .

"That is not true! I haven't  gotten  into any trouble these past couple weeks. And Yamato you might wanna watch out--- Bird! O my Kami BIRD!"

I shouted as a huge eagle  nearly  bumped into us but Yamato pulled to the side before  we collided. 

I heard Kiba ,and a couple others laugh at our near accident, when I realized that I was clenching Yamato's vest as well as my tail being fluffed up like a startled cat's along with my hair. 

"Are you already harri,?" Yamato asked as if he didn't  do the whole thing on purpose. Just to prove I was trouble prone..I give up on denying it.

"I'm fine ." I replied while leaning back once again  pouting. Sticking out my bottom lip as I nibbled on it.

After 5 minutes my younger mates and I decided to cure our boredom Naruto ,Sasuke, Shino,Makaro, Tatsuma, Neji, Kiba and I started  to pass one another water to practice water bending .

We soon picked a rhythm and had no issues for a while.

Though Shino caught me off guard after passing it to me instead of Sasuke and before I could catch the bubble  of water it popped...right on Yamato. 

Everyone froze and Kiba mouthed 'your a dead man' at Shino who was looking  away in the opposite direction. 

Yamato turned his head around and stared at me a scary aura surrounding him eyes glinting  cruelly. 

I immediately  started  crying a waterfall of tears " I'm sorry,  I'm sorry, Imsorry!" I said desperately while using drying charms on his clothes .

Then Yamato spoke "we are arriving at the shrine so be ready for the descent Harri." And faced forward.

I fainted and a ghost exited my mouth, Naruto ,Sasuke, Shino,Makaro, Tatsuma, Neji, and  Kiba's laughter raising me from the dead.

I glared at them and mouthed 'I'm going to kill you all'. As we started to land on the roof of the entrance tower that was newly built.

###

Not long after we landed  were were greeted by  a monsoon of people with many ethnicities.  Flowers  were thrown at us paired with welcoming phrases. 

But soon we were led to the shrine causing many of us to breathe a sigh of relief myself included.

Asako and Ayako immediately appeared to welcome us home but before they could finish I crashed  into them pulling  them into a hug .

"I have missed you guys so much!" I said before  letting them go.

  I then remembered all of my mates standing behind me and exclaimed "o where are my manners let me introduce you to my new mates Asako, Ayako, this is Kakashi, Gai, Neji,Shino,Muta,Shikamaru, Ensui,Itachi, Shisui,Sasuke, Iruka, Kiba,Katetsu,Izumo,Ibiki, Yamato, Aoba,Genma,Hoheto, Ko,Tokuma, Iwashi,Santa,Shimon,Orochimaru, Zaji, Tatsuma and Makaro you already know the rest."

I finished and everyone I introduced either nodded,  said hello, or made a form of recognition. 

" We missed you too kid." Ayako said with her signature grin, before speaking  up so everyone could hear her.

"Alright  everyone welcome to the Megumi no Jinja shrine I'm Ayako and this is my twin Asako we are the heads of the shrine spirits that care for the shrine. Now if you will follow  us so we can take you to your chambers. "

And started  heading down the hallway  I immediately followed Garou on one side of me and everyone following.  And as I looked around  I realized the shrine while it had the same build..it was bigger than it was and had newer decorations. 

Seems like my opinions made about the shrines  architecture was listened  to.

When we finally reached  our rooms  and they opened the panels to the doors  I wasn't the only one who gasped.

Our room was fucking huge, it had granite and marble floors, large windows,  closets, Drawers, Bookshelves, and from the windows I could see a huge garden with a pond in our yard.

And the bed ..my lord it was like someone took a small island and gave it cushions.

It had 7 connected doorways  one led to a humongous bathroom that held 5 humongous side baths and 6 showers with ranging size and design .

Some of the showers could double as baths. And there was 10 mirrors above 20 sinks, and Kami the gold walls  that had many paintings of art took my breath away.

I left the bathroom and entered another door  and it was a room about the size of our bedroom back in the leaf ..except it was dedicated to clothes. 

From dressed to shoes and ninja wear, it was just overwhelming. 

When I exited the room I asked  Asako " Asako where do the other the other doors go." Most of my mates heard me ask and came back to the bedroom to hear her answer. 

"My lady one leads to the garden that has many fruit and vegetable life due to your request, the other leads to a study /library that grows by the minute, the next door leads to the kitchen and dining area, the next door leads to an entertainment room. And the last room leads to a nursery. "

I nodded as I took in her answer , and then started  questioning her on the construction of the city, as well as any work I would need to finish for the day . 

Asako simply smiled and took out a long ass list that had more than 50 things that needed to be done... as I said it was a vacation for my mates not for me.

####

First I had to meet with all of the current council members of the village that were elected by their peers  to discuss matters that needed attention. 

Orochimaru ,Jirou, Ibiki, Fu And Kabuto joined me instead of going with the others to sightsee or train.

During the meeting I was introduced to the current council members there was only 21 as of yet.

There was Chizue who was speaking for the working class of citizens.  Then Aika who spoke for the women who worked as courtesans and wifes of the nobles.

Arakan who spoke for the hunter organization.

Glen who spoke for the monks and his counterpart Lila who spoke for the priestesses. 

Daisuke who spoke for the farmers and Animal Traders. Urushi who was speaking for the orphans and was accompanied by the matron Ai.

Daitan speaker for the architects, and construction workers.

Eichi who spoke for our current trading companys (which included everything from books ,clothing, bathing products,to musical instruments and weapons).

Eri who spoke for the new immigrants and refugees. 

Gin who spoke for the artisans and blacksmiths.

Asako who spoke for the spirits and magical beings. 

Nari who was speaking for the miners, Fireworks makers and explosion corps.

Ito who spoke for the teachers  and scholars.

Kai who spoke to the current clans in the city.

Kayia who spoke for the police, and Kaori who spoke for the judges 

Hana who spoke for our protectors (those in charge of defense).

Hiroki who spoke for our warriors , and Shin who spoke for the assassinations and hunters was accompanied by his brother Sai.

Who was staring at me during the entire meeting, which made it hard for me to concentrate.

But there wasn't that many problems that had to be  addressed other than finding a faster way of construction and the few cases of law breaking that were important enough to demand my attention..

Which made me religiously remember not to ever make Orochimaru or Ibiki  in charge of criminals. 

Dont get me wrong they were a huge help with deciding the punishment or deaths of the criminals..but they were extremely cruel so I had to help them tone it down a bit.

But as soon as the meeting was over Shin and his brother stayed behind and as soon as I looked directly into Sai's eyes I bonded with him.

Well that explains the staring.

##

All that happened was Sai simply was introduced to the others and moved into my quarters, while his brother had the option to move into the family wing not far from us.

Which all of my mates family members had quarters should they wish to stay.

And that night after I finished all of my tasks I threw a festival so everyone could take an evening to relax and have fun.

I finally got away with wearing  one of my more revealing dresses,  and all of my mates were dressed accordingly as my consorts. 

A lot of them especially like Egyptian cotton fabrics, and liked western styled  clothes than anything else .

And for most of the night I danced with all of my mates except or Orochimaru and Ibiki.

Though Ibiki,Jirou, hoheto and Ko looked like they was going to hurt me when I started  belly dancing with some of the performers while the other simply laughed or were exasperated. 

Then we had a feast followed  by most of my mates showing off their jutsu's  the Uchiha getting a very warm reception as well as Genma and Orochimaru which shocked them all.

But when the night was starting to wane down singers started to perform as well as karaoke singers that were surprisingly good.

Until they called my name as the next performer. I immediately looked at Diarmuid who was looking like the cat who caught the canary afterall he was the only one who has heard me sing.

Kakashi immediately caught  on and started taking me to the stage with his eyes smiling.  

"Na na harri don't wanna disappoint  the people so let's get you up there."  I immediately started to resist,

"No Kakashi you have to listen to me I cant sing! I dont wanna sing ! Put me down you traitor!" I whisper yelled as he left me on the stage.

I huffed  my tail waving in irritation as I was given a microphone and ushered to the middle of the stage.

I looked out the corner of my eye and saw all my mates attention  on me.

Then the piano  started  to play a familiar tune and I  started to twitch nervously. As I waited for the lyrics to start. Sweat rolling down my back as I kept my anxiety attack held back.

'I will get you for this Diarmuid..you better watch your back tonight!' Was all I was able  to say through the bond before I took a deep breathI started singing. 

Aren't you something to admire ,

Cuz you shine is something like a mirror.

And I can't help but notice, you reflect in this heart of mine.

If you ever feel alone and the glare makes me hard to find.

Just know that I'm always parallel on the other side.

Cuz with my hand in your hand and my pocket full of soul,

I can tell you there's no place we couldn't go.

Just put your hand on the past,

Im here tryna pull you through.

You just gotta be strong!

 My eyes met Naruto's who was looking at me as if I hung the moon and I winked as I continued singing.

I don't wanna lose you now!

Im looking right at the other half of me!

The vacancy that sat in my heart

Is a space that you now hold.

Show me how to fight for now.

And I'll tell you baby it was easy ,

Coming back here once I figured it out.

You were right here all along.

Its like you're my mirror, my mirror staring back at me.

I couldn't get any bigger with anyone else beside of me.

Now memories started to flood my senses, of my mates , holding me , making me laugh, playing childish games with me and it nearly made me cry with how all of my mates reflected different parts of...well me.

I could be as forgiving as Naruto, but I can also be as cruel as Orochimaru. But usually I'm somewhere in between,  that is why I have so many mates because I am very..let's just say fluid. 

And now it's clear as this promise,

That we're making two reflections into one.

Cuz it's like your my mirror,

My mirror staring back at me, staring back at me!

Aren't you something an original,

Cause it doesn't seem merely assembled

And i can't help but stare , cause i see truth somewhere in your eyes.

I can't ever change without you, you reflect me I love that about you.

And if I could, I would look at us all the time!

I turned my head to see the other side of the crowd and saw that I wasn't the only one who wanted to cry. Asako was crying on Ayako's shoulder at their table and I shook my head as I belted out the next line.

Cause with your hand in my hand and a pocket full of soul ,

I can tell you there is no place we couldn't go.

Just put your hand on the glass , I'll be trying to pull you through,

You just gotta be strong!

Cause I don't wanna lose you now , I'm looking right at the other half of me.

The Vacancy that sat in my heart, is a space that now you hold.

Show me how to fight for now!

And I'll tell you baby it was easy, coming back to you once I figured it out.

 You were right here all along, it's like you're my mirror.

 My mirror staring back at me oh, I couldn't get any bigger.

 With anyone else Beside of me, and now it's clear as this promise.

That we're  making two reflections into one, cuz it's like you're my mirror.

Starting back at me.

Oooooo

Yesterday is history, ooooo tomorrow's a mystery.

I can see you looking back at me, keep your eyes on me.

Baby ,keep your eyes on me!

Cause I don't want to lose you now oh, I'm looking right at the other half of me.

The vacancy that sat in my heart is a space that now you hold.  

Show me how to fight for now, I'll tell you baby it was easy coming back into you once I figured it out.

 You were right here all along.

 It's like you're my mirror my mirror staring back at me.

 I couldn't get any bigger with anyone else beside of me.

 And it now it's clear as this promise ,that we're making two reflections into one.

Cuz it's like you're my mirror, my mirror staring back at me, staring back at me!

I finished as strongly as I could and as soon as I looked up cheers and yelled praise were being thrown at me including flowers.

I walked stilted like off the stage after I bowed due to my nerves making me lock up.

As soon as I stepped off stage Ensui picked me up in his arms and took me back to the table while rubbing my back soothingly. 

"That was amazing  hari,  thank you for singing that for us." Itachi said from next to me ,many of my mates nodding  along to the sentiment. 

" I didn't really choose to sing"-  pointed glare at Diarmuid- "but I'm happy I did because in my honest opinion,  all of you are an irreplaceable part of me." I said while smiling at them.

Gai immediately burst into tears and started yelling statements of love, along with Naruto, Kiba,And Zaji and I was immediately  part of a dog pile of hugging mates.

I looked  to Ibiki and Genma who were watching me suffer and reached  out my hand , got out a choked  "save me!" Before  I was never seen again. 

Atleast  until Iruka had enough of our shenanigans along with hoheto and they both broke everyone  up so we could head back to the shrine to get some rest.

Kissing and bonding with Sai was a different  experience, instead of an element rushing through my veins it felt like ink instead of water, not to mention the taste of mint of his lips.

Afterward he couldn't stop looking at his tattoo that appeared on his shoulder poking at it until I told him to stop.

That night as we crawled to bed I slept next to Shimon And Izumo.

I couldn't  wait for tomorrow, because we were  going to go to the menagerie I couldn't  wait to see their reactions..and I might also throw Kakashi and Diarmuid in with the manticores..I know Garou  would let me despite Jirou's disagreements. 

Unknowingly I may have tipped  them off due to my sinister cackles. O well..

####

30th of January 

Hari POV 

The last two days were filled with fun, amazement, bonding time, revenge and prank missions, and relaxation. 

As planned  we did go to the menagerie, or my personal zoo of regular and magical creatures.  Unfortunately I wasn't  able to throw Kakashi and Diarmuid to the manticores  much to my disappointment. 

But I was able to convince the cats that roamed freely to attack  them on sight which made their day quite..uncomfortable.  

I may have also traumatized  my younger mates with my revenge methods. 

Muahahahahah! That's what you get for messing with me! 

And after that we went to a hot spring to relax  though  Shikamaru nearly  gave me a heart attack by falling asleep and nearly drowning in the pool saved by a quick thinking Tokuma..

And today I Crowned each of my mates with a title and lordships in front of my council and people. 

After running around with them in my gardens/obstacle course.

But today at Midnight was when most of my younger mates and I would age a year.

Leading  to the last day of our vacation. 

Not to mention  my pilgrimage starting on the second of February  our first stop being Kiri.

But all of us Kabuto, Fu,Sai, Naruto ,Kiba,Neji,Shino,Shikamaru, Makaro,Itachi,Shisui,Ko,Sasuke, Zaji,and Tatsuma  felt restless the entire day because we could feel the magic swirling around us ,waiting for the change.

And here we are ten minutes  to midnight nearly  growling at one another in frustration. 

Iwashi helped me calm by running his fingers through my hair, so softly it made me lean in and purr.

Therefore calming all of the others stress.

They then formed  groups around the living room just talking or playing  games ,while I got my cuddles in with iwashi. 

When I felt a pain shoot up my spine and down my legs making me whine in agony, the others making echoed sounds  of pain. 

But as soon ast it started  to was gone the first one I saw was Kabuto,  he grew taller and more broad from his jump from 9 to 10.

Fu shoot up like a weed but didn't receive bulk like Kabuto, he had lean muscles that were there but not overly so. And his hair was now about the length of mine.  I ran my hands through it admiring its color while he did the same to mine.

Sai honestly didn't change that much, he was about the same height ,but it was his face that lost most of the baby fat.

Naruto, Shino, Shikamaru, Neji,Makaro and Tatsuma  gained a little height, lost baby fat, and gained longer hair like the others.

Though  Makaro and Naruto seemed more broad than the others.

Shisui and Itachi  honestly surprised me they where completely ripped for a 11 and 12 year old, though they still had a little baby fat clinging to their faces and longer hair. 

Much to their distaste, that I openly  teased them on.

Ko was probably the most broad  and muscular out of all my younger  mates , his sharp cheekbones lost the last amount of baby fat and he looked like a sharper and more stern Tokuma.

Though  I pouted when he smacked my wondering hands from his muscular stomach and chest..he was the one without a shirt! 

So he is practically asking for it , but I got over it and turned to Zaji. 

Zaji's eyes had gotten  wider as did his shoulders  but he didn't  grow much because he was already  one of the tallest out of the rest of my mates.

He was busy looking at himself  in the mirror by our bed and therefore didn't  see me until my reflection appeared next to his.

My lips got more pouty ,eyes larger and slanted like a cat's. My hair was to the floor even though  I grew a couple  inches and I wasn't  as skinny.

"Beautiful.." Zaji whispered and that broke me from my thoughts as I blushed red.

But before we could get excited  Diarmuid  and Tokuma made rounds  and made sure all of us were adjusting well.

Orochimaru following them while taking notes of the entire process for his own curiosity. 

But it was 2 am before  we headed to bed to rest .

I was wrapped  around Genma while getting hugged from Makaro when I saw all of our bonds pulse and strengthen using my aura vision. 

That night I slept peacefully .

###

31st of January 

Harry Pov 

I was currently  laying on Jirou and Garou as we watched the stars from our garden.  We just came from the banquet that was thrown as a birthday party for those of us that aged up. 

Many of my mates gawed when they got at least 40 presents each. One of them handmade by me for them to always have on them that could be used as a port key to bring them to me.

I also had my own that was connected to theirs so I could Portkey to them.

Orochimaru and Ibiki personally are trying to replicate the effects using seals and are failing much to their disdain. 

But I had the most from my people and my mates added together it took forever to open them all and I gave all of my mates lots of love after I oped their gifts. 

Even though some (Jirou, Katetsu,and Orochimaru) tried to avoid it.

But I honestly didn't want our vacation to end , and was honestly being clingy to the those who had missions starting back up the next day.

And they also were hogging me for most of the day so I haven't been the only clingy one.

I heard footsteps and saw Aoba , one of those leaving tomorrow and immediately got up and followed him to the bathroom ,like he was motioning me to do.

We spent  a hour or so playing around in the hot spring sized baths Gai ,Kotetsu,Izumo, and Muta joining us.

I never wanted my mates to leave...and for the first time I started to hate that they were ninjas.

But I already  promised I wouldn't  force them to defect from their villages to mine .

For now..

Chapter Text

Harri POV

Everything and everyone was prepared to go ,except for me.

I didn't want to say goodbye to the few mates that weren't coming with us. Kakashi, Aoba, Ibiki and Genma had to return to Konoha for their missions and duties. 

While the rest would come with me until they too were summoned by my side by the Hokage.

I laid by their sides most of the night and was clinging to then throughout the morning. 

I just couldn't get enough of them, and their scents.

They ended up having to drown clothes with their pheromones to get me to loosen my grip.

I struggled not to cry as I saw them off at the city gate.

Kakashi put his forehead to mine and gave me Pakkun's summons scroll.

I panicked and tried to give it back even though I appreciated the gesture. 

"Kakashi I can't take this, you need "- he shushed me actually shushed me  before holding an exact replica of the summons scroll. 

"They are the same little wolf, this one I had made for you to use to summon Pakkun in emergencies, since you care for him so much and it will ease your pain while I am away." He explained before putting the scroll once again in my hand.

I hugged him one more time ," I love you Kakashi,  so you better come back to me or I'll burn this world to the ground and hold all of you prisoner understand! And that goes for you guys too!"

I said looking pointedly at Ibiki,Aoba,and Genma.

"Yeah ,yeah kid we hear ya." Genma said while flapping his hand at me in a very Kakashi like way.

I smacked his hand away before motioning for him to give me a smooch.

He did ,and put one of his senbon in my hair while I was distracted by his luscious lips. 

It was specifically his mother's,  a heirloom if I recall meant to be given to his wife when he married.

I touched it gently as he whispered eyes burning "wear it when you arrive so that everyone will know that you are mine." 

I nodded and watched as he joined Kakashi on one of the Threstrals.

Aoba was next to say farewell,  and tucked a pink and yellow flower behind my ear.

" Now hun I dont have no summons scroll or heirloom to give ya ,but that doesn't mean I care for you less ya hear?" He said while blushing but held eye contact showing his sincerity. 

" I know Aoba, but that's why I love you, you are charming and kind in your fumbling earnest ways." I teased, which made him blush more.

When his eyes got a mischievous glow and focused on me .

"Uh-oh." Was all I was able to say when he kissed me for the first time ,other than at our bonding. 

I blushed beat red as steam started to come out of my ears.

The bastard had the nerve to smirk ,then walk away whistling!

I chuckled and turned to Ibiki the last one to head off.

His hands enveloped my face and wiped away tears that I didn't even know I had shed.

"Dont cry Harri , you are to beautiful to be so sad." He said in his usual stern voice.

I nodded as I desperately tried to stop my tears but they kept coming no matter how hard I tried to stop them.

Ibiki sighed before voluntarily pulling me into his arms.  I quickly snuggled in not missing the chance of Ibiki giving cuddles.

When he released me he spoke "There are no goodbyes for us. Wherever you are, you will always be in my heart.” and kissed my forehead. 

I giggled sweetly at his sappy love confession that turned into laughter once again when he threatened to tear out my spine if I told the others of what he had said.

After he was gone as well the 4 of them dissapeared into the sky faster than the mortal eyes could see.

I turned and walked back into the city the large gates closing with finality behind me .

###

The procession to Kirigakure consisted of many delights, gifts and performers.

My city was a very rich one ,so I had every right to flaunt it ,as long as I stayed within the reasonable guidelines. 

The train went as follows,  the front consisted of carts full of Singers and dancers that would throw flower petals along with currency, followed by carts of fruits,food and the bounty of our lands unknown to what grows in Kiri.

Afterward my warriors would ride past upon fire breathing horses, while doing displays of their choosing with their weapons, following them in a container Is Madagascar sunset moths and many colorful birds that needed to be released. 

That were specifically chosen for Kirigakures climate and conditions.

The reason birds were chosen was to help with the ridiculous mosquito population in Kirigakure that led to many cases of diseases. 

Then my mates and I would bring up the rear, in a luxurious float pulled by Abraxas Pegasi. 

The carts and floats took forever for the carpenters and engineers to make, because  I wanted them to fold or close inward to become regular large crates so they wouldn't take up much room and would be reusable. 

So we didn't have to reconstruct the entire procession every single time we came to another village.

Our float was the most difficult to design, afterall we had to have 32 people on it, but in the end we decided to have the thrones all set out in a giant U shape so everyone could be seen.

Everything was in its crate form until we reached Kirigakure, along with all of our supplies that we needed. 

Afterall we did have to build a shrine in the village, as well as help them with some of their community issues, encouraging immigration to build our population up quickly. 

Now presently my mates and I had just left the capital city in our amphibious carriage pulled by Abraxans.

While Naruto,  Zaji ,Kabuto, Fu,Neji,Shino,Shikamaru, Itachi,Shisui,Sasuke, Kiba,Ko,Tatsuma, Makaro,and Muta were currently getting their wardrobe and Thrones designed for the procession. 

Looking as if they were being forced to plan their own funerals. 

Except for Sasuke and Kabuto they were fluffed up like peacock's as they picked out the colors and styles of their outfits. 

On the other hand my older mates and I tried to narrow down who would accompany me to the meeting with the Mizukage and his advisers. 

All of them couldn't come, no matter how much I wanted them to.

The only ones we had currently decided on was Garou ,Jirou, Diarmuid, Orochimaru and Ensui which left two seats open.

I had a headache and was rubbing my forehead when Izumo spoke up from the others.

"Hari ,stop stressing so much and drink some tea. Now in my opinion Kotetsu, Gai,Iruka, Shimon and Tokuma shouldn't go with you to the meeting. "

He said while pouring me a cup of honey tea and pulling my hands from my face and continued to explain .

" Mainly because of age meaning we wouldn't be taken seriously, not mentioning not have a reputation or a well known clan as family,  and because politics isn't our cup of tea.." Izumo explained calming those mentioned  with his reasoning. 

I perked up immediately " You're right Izumo! That makes this so much easier I'll have Hoheto and Santa take the last two spots . Afterall they both come from well known clans..".

I continued to mumble as I wrote down Santa and Hoheto's name, while Izumo laughed.

"Your welcome Hari, glad I could help." Izumo said after tucked a piece of loose hair behind my ear.

I blushed bright red before croaking out  "Thank you."

As Izumo plopped back down next to Kotetsu, next to Santa and Hoheto.

" you guys are ok with coming with me to the meeting right"? I asked them nervously realizing I had gotten so carried away with planning the last few things, that I had forgotten to check with them.

"Of course Hari we would be honored." Santa said with a smile making me giggle as the rest of my mates nodded in agreement to those chosen.

Until the designer Neil came over  clapping his hands.

"Alright now that all of that dreadful, business stuff is all done it's time to get your wardrobe, makeup and Hairstyle prepared for the parade!" He said with a slight unhinged smirk eyes glinting in amusement. 

"Wardrobe??"-

"Makeup??"-

Were shouted out in horror and confusion until Kotetsu yelled out - '' Run for your lives!" And we all scattered in different directions. 

"You can't run or hide I'll find you eventually, we are on a carriage so there is no escape from me"! Neil said while laughing maniacally, having already captured Shimon and Iwashi who was pleading for help as Neil's assistants advanced on them both.

###

That night we were  already crossing the ocean being pulled by water serpents.  It was pretty soothing,  the rocking of the ocean, but it did little to calm me.

After sleeping uneasily,  I left my bed as quietly as possible and stepped out onto the porch of the carriage/boat and stared at the stars.

" Its beautiful isnt it ." Shikamaru said suddenly making me jump a foot in the air hand to my chest as I tried to get my heart to calm down. 

" Shika how many times must I tell you not to sneak up on me! Just because you control shadows doesn't mean you dont have to act like one!" I snipped to cover up my embarrassment. 

He shrugged " Sorry I didn't mean to scare ya." He said sheepishly while scratching his head, then leaned on the railing by my side.

My tail relaxed  as I breathed in his scent mixed in with the night air.

"You are right though, that its beautiful..even with the mist. I get now how you and Ensui sit and stare at the sky for hours. " I said softly, unconsciously laying my head on his offered shoulder. 

Shikamaru smiled, "Sometimes I wish I was a cloud... Just floating along, going wherever the breeze takes me. In the sky completely free where you dont have to worry about anything,  you can just lay back and relax. But to be honest I could stare at you for much longer than any sky,  completely captivated by your pretty face."

He said voice soft as he played with my long midnight hair.

I blushed and smacked his arm ,"  You flatter me, have you been talking to Shisui or Kiba because you are starting to sound like them."

I joked as I sat down on the couch nearby starting to feel tired from the lack of sleep.

Shikamaru joined me and replied, " No actually I've be spending time with Naruto and Gai you should hear all the sappy and corny stuff they say when your not around. " 

I laughed, " Seriously!? Now you have to tell me what they said I need to know!" I said looking at him expectantly,  and pouted when he shook his head and brought up the 'bro code'.

I then argued that I was a guy too which he said didn't count since I'm a carrier.

Before I could get to worked up though the sun started to rise ,so beautifully turning the water to a beautiful blue. 

Later when the rest of my mates woke up Makaro would discover us on the porch with Iruka. 

And proceeded to take many pictures,  much to Shika's horror. 

###

We arrived at Kirigakure at 8 am on the dot and I saw first hand as soon as we arrived why it was called the bloody mist.

Not long after we had docked, we had gotten on some regular horses to ride half of the way to Kirigakure, when we passed through a small town that desperately needed repairs. 

Buildings were rotted, and near falling at the weight of the water and plant on the roofs.

Scarily enough the streets were very barren and having a bad feeling I ordered some of our warriors to scout the area. 

My gut feeling got worse , the tension rising as my other mates sensed something in the air.

When we just passed the village , I could see a angry mob with torches and weapons rage and madness in the air.

The warriors I sent to scout ,trying to calm andhold back the crowd from destroying their target. 

After looking to Garou and receiving a nod, I spurred my horse and ran down the slope Garou, Iwashi and Gai following while the others stayed behind. 

I rode my stallion straight up to the leaders of the mob, and my stallion reared at my sudden stop.

And I caught a glimpse of the children being protected by a battered warrior, and felt my rage swell.

"ENOUGH! WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS!"  I called out immediately catching the attention of the Mob as my voice cracked like a whip revealing my churning anger. 

My scent demanding obedience. 

A older man is his forties stepped forward anger in his eyes.

"Who are you to command us? What right do you stand on that keeps those-those demons from from death they so rightly deserve?"

Immediately I knew what the issue was ,it seems the children possessed Kekkai genkai,  which were still widely hated among the civilians due to recent wars.

"First off you will watch your tone speaking to me. These are children ..children ! Unstained children by the deeds of their predecessors ! And for you to hunt and mistreat them for reason no other that blind prejudice, superstition, and hate only proves you to be demons not them !" 

I finished passionately, and to my satisfaction some of the villagers had the decency to look ashamed or at least uneasy. 

I raised my voice again,  " I Hari high priestess of Megumi no Jinja,  declare from this day forward that any man woman or child that possesses a kekkai Genkai is welcome to my cities and villages. You will not be forced to use your abilities for the greater good of my cities unless you wish to. You will not be forced to be a ninja,  or experimented on. I swear this upon the Goddesses and my own soul. So go spread the word to all villages through this region, and do not speak false tongue on what happened here. Lest a curse be brought upon you by the gods for your offense. " I finished coldly .

Gai ,Iwashi, and Garou taking a child to carry back to our train.

I forced my way atop my horse through the crowd of people to the battered warrior.

I nodded to him and put my glowing hand to his cheek as I asked him for his name.

"I am called Kaiza." He answered with a smile despite the pain he was in ,that I was currently healing. 

"Well Kaiza you have just proved to me that I want you as one of my personal guards ,the first one in fact." I said smiling at him

Kaiza's face was hilarious his eyes widened and his jaw hit the floor. 

I ignored his spluttered thanks and turned to the boy he was protecting.

Emerald eyes met jade and a bond snapped into being.

I jumped off my horse and cautiously approached the shy boy who looked as if he wanted to flee.

"Hello I'm harri a priestess from the land of fire. What's your name." I asked

"Kimimaro." He replied quietly while staring at me very intently. 

"Well Kimimaro, do you want to return home with me?" I asked while offering my hand out to him and releasing calming pheromones. 

Kimimaro hesitated obviously afraid to trust.

"And if you decide that you dont like it you will be free to leave. I pinky promise. " I continued and held out my pinky while smiling encouragingly. 

Kimimaro slowly took my hand and nodded. 

Not wasting time I got back on my horse with my new bonded , Garou, Gai,Iwashi,and Kaiza following us back to the train that had halted and waited for us to continue forward .

And we continued on out way leaving the village behind,  as I took Kimimaro to our carriage to explain everything to him.

Looks like Neil will have another victim. 

###

Two hours later our parade began, all of my mates and I all the way in the back primped  and prodded until each of us was as regal as a king.

As the beginning of our train entered Kirigakure music blasting loudly, to the curious onlookers who flooded the streets to see the new revived priestess queen.

Naruto was dressed in a red vest covered mainly by a black waistcoat. A white fur cloak on top of that containing his clans Crest. Like the white throne lined in the same blue of his eyes carried.  A golden crown resting on his head.

 When we all so each other in our outfits we applauded Neil and his team for the final product. 

Even though we didn't enjoy the process.

Though a lot of my mates disliked how much skin I was showing except for the younger ones who agreed with Makaro's statement of , " I think Hari looks like a goddess! He doesn't look inappropriate at all!"

Anywho back to the present I heard the music and singing of the first float.

(Now dont judge me but they were singing Prince Ali ..except with a few minor adjustments. )

Chapter Text

Harri POV

I simply sighed and lightly walked up to the Mizukage and bowed respectfully before straightening and addressing the Mizukage who was staring at me judging my every move.

As well as staring at Mei ,Utakata, and Kiri who stayed by my side nervously shifting under his gaze.

" Thank you Mizukage for allowing me into your village for the yearly procession that is done every 10 years."

"It is my pleasure little priestess, afterall I remember the joy and prosperity the temple used to bring before it's demise." 

The Mizukage replied smirking and motioned for me to sit, which I did along with all of my mates.

I quickly took a look at one of my new imprints that sat closest to me, who wore an eye patch before I turned to the Mizukage. 

"Pardon me, I forgot to introduce myself and my consorts you may call me Hari if you desire. I have by my side Garou Hatake, Orochimaru Black, Diarmuid Dior, Hoheto Hyuga, Ensui Nara,Santa Yamanaka, and Jirou Jino ." I said each of them nodding as I introduced them.

My imprint that had the eye patch froze upon hearing Hoheto's last name.

The Mizukage nodded before motioning to the men at his side.

"These are my advisers Ao and Yagura, Dai and Chiko. Now I wish to get straight to the point of your visit.  What do you want from me and my village and what do you wish to do during your stay here? "

Now Hoheto was staring at Ao hateful and I knew something was wrong but I simply put it away to resolve later, while grabbing Hoheto's hand and rubbing the back of it.

I giggled at the Mizukage,  "I like you , we shall get along just fine." I said before continuing.

"Now to answer your questions all I want from you is peace, and if you are if a mind a alliance that I have offered to all of the shinobi villages. As well as your permission to have all of my imprints come live with me in my city should they wish to complete the bond. While my bond sisters become delegates of the shrine in Kirigakure. " I looked out of the corner of my eye to see Ao looking at me curiously  before the Mizukage spoke.

"That is a high order ..especially since you have imprinted on both of my jinjuriki and seem to have a habit of imprinting on powerful clans ,I cannot just simply let you walk out the door with my most powerful ninja." He said sternly and I shook my head.

"Of course not ,I do not expect you to they shall still be your shinobi unless they chose to leave , it is simply easier for all for them to live in my city and when needed can me summoned here after I set up a temple. With your permission of course. " I admit 

"Not to mention it shall be fair payment, since I am solving your rebellion problems by giving asylum to persecuted  Kekkai genkai users as well as feeding your currently starving people and fixing the infertility of your land." I said raising my eyebrow. 

At this moment the elderly Chiko snorted and said in her nasally voice. 

"Stupid child do you think we do not see what you are doing? It is obvious that you are purposely bonding with powerful shinobi and offering asylum to Kekkai genkai users to build up your army and power!"

The Mizukage shook his head at her words obviously disagreeing. 

I immediately replied with," Actually lady Chiko if you actually read the letter I have sent the Mizukage you would know that my Kekkai genkai requires  me to have strong mates to survive,  and I do not have an army because as I have said in my letter it is forbidden to wage war on anyone without the Goddesses permission on top of the treaties we have with the hidden villages that was apparently not honored by the one who destroyed the shrine!"

I said voice as cold as ice as Chiko flushed in embarrassment. 

"I apologize on lady Chiko's behalf Hari I'm sure she meant no offense. But back to the problem at hand how exactly does the transportation between the villages work?" He inquired seriously 

Orochimaru was the one who answered since he was the one who helped make the portals.

"It is simply Fūinjutsu, combined with one of my mates hiden that I designed to make the portals. The markings are indecipherable to anyone but the Priests who activate the seal and the one traveling. It is similar to the 4th hokages Jutsu except it can transport miles to one temple to another..I have tried to have the seal work in other buildings and places but it simply doesn't work."

He said his frustration leaking through at his percieved failure as he handed the folder that contained everything on how the transportation jutsu worked in more detail.

As well as trade agreements that I had drafted with the help of Hoheto and Santa.

I reached over tentatively to brush my hand against his while sending support through our bond.

As the Mizukage and his advisers read the folder my eyes met Yagura's and I was taken aback by how..cold they were.

It reminds me of how Orochimaru was before he mated to me.

I was snapped out of my thoughts as the Mizukage spoke.

"This is certainly unorthodox yet completely productive and advantageous in many ways.... Alright I shall allow your imprints to accompany you to your homeland if they wish to. As well as your requests  to build the shrine and all of the following but in return I wish to be the first village to renew the alliance and treaty between our lands..because if I am not mistaken the leaf hasn't yet due to the disarray Danzo has caused due to the leafs inefficiency."

Some of my mates stiffened at the mention of the now dead elder, and the insult.

The Mizukages advisers and guards reacting to the tension. 

I let my calm scent of honey to flood the room to calm everyone down before addressing the Mizukage. 

"Yes you are correct you would be the first hidden village to renew the alliance,  Diarmuid has the treaty." I said and Diarmuid stood and handed it to Ao who handed it to the Mizukage .

I nervously tapped my fingers against the chair  as I waited with baited breath for him to sign it.

He then looked up to me and said ," This is remarkably generous ...I shall sign it and send a copy to the Damiyo for him to sign as well."

I breathed a sigh of relief as the Mizukage sighed it.

Afterward I had Jirou take Hoheto,Garou, Orochimaru, Ensui, Mei and Diarmuid to our camp that was in a clearing found in the city .

I stayed behind with Utakata (who was mesmerized by my hair and couldn't stop playing with it), Santa, Kiri,Yagura, and Ao. 

I walked up to Ao and Yagura and smiled at them while sneakily breathing in their scents. 

"Hello I just wanted to ask if you guys had some free time to show me around your village today and help me with some of my duties, while we get to know one another." I asked 

Ao was the first to reply, " I would be honored young one." He said before taking my hand and gently kissing it.

I blushed and turned to Yagura who watched the seen impassively. 

"Sorry but I have a mission so I cannot come, I'll see ya." He said tone flat as he jumped out the window of the hallway we were standing in.

A little taken off guard and hurt I turned back to Ao while taking Kiri's hand .

"Lead the way."

###

Hari POV 

While the village was warm when we arrived when we left the Mizukages office it was already starting to lightly snow. I received my coat from Santa who was carrying a magically enlarged bag that held all necessities. 

Ao stiffly showed us all the tourists sights after I placed my arm in his, obviously surprising him especially since I asked multiple questions about Kirigakure's architecture and customs as we walked. 

Santa asking questions just as often as I which made me swallow down laughter as Ao answered his questions Braggingly. 

An hour later though I was starting to get cold, my nose turning red . When Ao took us to a restaurant that was deliciously warm on the inside and smelled of delicious meat.

We all sat in a booth Santa and Utakata sitting with me while Kiri and Ao sat across from us.

Soon Ao began asking questions about my clan and Kekkai genkai that I happily answered. 

All of them other that Santa were surprised by my cat ears and tail I revealed from my glamour.  As well as the fact of being near immortal,  something Kiri seemed uneasy about before Santa comforted him.

Our evening took a bad turn when Ao found out I was mated to a 4 of the Hyuga clan.

That he spoke of in relish as he admitted to stealing one of their clans men's eyes like it was a trophy to be one.

Immediately my fiery temper flared and I told him exactly what I thought of his statement which led to an argument. 

That Santa tried to calm along with Kiri while Utakata took my side of the argument. 

It was when Ao spat out that I was an omega that should accept my place that I lost it. 

I told him that he was not worthy of being my mate nor a ninja in the heat of the moment before I accidentally appeared elsewhere in the city.

I accidentally apperated in my distress it seems.

So here I am heading back to the camp, scared and upset as I walked through the streets by myself. 

When I turned the corner and realized I was lost, because i had no idea where i was.

All of the homes and stalls were worn down by weather and time . Looking like they were going to fall apart at the smallest breeze when I saw the children trying to take shelter under the building's and bridge.

My heart stopped as I saw there hungry and sunken faces.

I immediately started to hand out food ,clothes and necessities from my bag  while telling them where my camp is ,when I bumped into a large hard chest as I went to feed the next homeless child.

I heard a gruff voice as I quickly stood up while apologizing .

" watch where you are going you fucking brat." 

It said ,as I looked up to a man with bandages wrapped around his face and a large sword on his back.

As soon as his cold hard eyes found mine we imprinted. 

"Shit"

"Fuck"

We said at the same exact time,  and finally reaching my limit I burst into Hysterical laughter that quickly turned into crying .

I felt myself being lifted by my new imprint as he leaped up the nearest building and took me to a beat up inn.

Where I was unceremoniously dropped on a seat in the eating area while my imprint called for ' Haku' to deal with my shit. 

I faintly heard my imprint explain something to a soft voice before I was sobbing again. 

When I finally calmed down I felt small hands rubbing my back and met large brown eyes.

A sibling bond formed and I took the offered tissue. 

"Thank you Haku." I said wiping my nose recalling his name from when I first arrived. 

"Your welcome, now are you feeling better?" He asked sweetly and I nodded. 

" I apologize for Zabuza, he simply cannot handle tears of any kind." Haku said while handing me a drink.

Zabuza returned just as he said it and sent a Kunai at Haku's head that he dodged. 

"Fucking bitch ! I can handle crying because of you soft ass." Zabuza grouched out before sitting next to me.

His eyes shifting as he blushed, under the bandages.

"So what's your name brat? Why were ya all by yourself?"

"My name is Hari Potta, and I accidentally apperated away from my mates after Ao was being a Asshole!"

I said hotly my voice going a little shrill at the end as  I recalled our argument.

Haku and Zabuza both froze looking at me as if I just said I shat gold .

"No shit??" They both said as I realised I had heard Zabuza's name before. 

He was a missing nin ,from Kirigakure. 

Hoping to calm them down and stop them from freaking out I nodded. 

Before quickly explaining in one breath that they automatically would be able to live with me, wouldn't be hunted by anyone and I wouldn't force them to leave or force Zabuza to bond with me.

By the time I finished I was red in the face and getting worked up when Zabuza grabbed my face with his large hands.

"Bratt chill the fuck out, we get it we have options now breathe." He said while his comforting pheromones surrounded me ,calming me down once again .

I leaned against his side and said, " sorry"  into his neck.

He stiffened but didn't move away, which I took as permission to cuddle closer, seeking comfort. 

 After a while I asked if he would help me return to my camp when I realized that it was going on 10 at night.

After some back and forth that I couldn't hear Haku convinced Zabuza to do so and stay .

Minutes later we were once again jumping buildings,  as we drew closer to our camp the more Kirigakure shinobi we saw.

We soon landed in a square that was filled of shinobi searching form me. Santa, Ao, Ensui,Garou and Itachi among them.

As well as Yagura who was nearly seething in rage at some chunin.

Immediately we had everyone's attention, and weapons were drawn once everyone saw Zabuza. 

Yagura and Itachi moved the fastest and came at Zabuza whose back I was on.

Zabuza blocked both of them ,despite us being pushed back a few feet from the blow.

"Waiiiit! Just wait a damn minute! " i screeched from Zabuza's back causing everyone to freeze.

"Zabuza didn't kidnap me ,nor is he holding me for ransom,  he is one of my imprints and by law is protected.  Our companion is another delegate for the shrine seeking my cities citizenship! So stop attacking us !" I explained exasperated to near death.

Most stood down except for Yagura who growled, "Put him down". 

Immediately Zabuza let me down and I was immediately grabbed into Yagura's arms as he sniffed me checking for injuries.

I crooned seeing the alpha was a step away from going berserk until he calmed. 

I was then scented by the rest on my mates there who all berated me in some way for not calling them for help.....which I honestly forgot I can do.

When Ao stepped forward I flinched back  and leaned against Yagura. 

So froze his eyes full if devastation and sadness as he spoke.

"I apologize Hari for everything I have said, it was completely out of line.. and I lashed out at u you because I was ashamed of myself and my actions that you pointed out. I beg you to forgive me and to give me another chance."

He said before looking down and bowing to me.

Everyone was silent 

I took a deep breath and put my hand on his shoulder. 

"I forgive you , but know that you will have to work twice as hard to earn my affection. " I said seriously still hurt from his words.

He nodded accepting my answer and I turned to my mates and said, "Take us home."

###

Hari POV

When we arrived in our large warm tent I was tackled by a sobbing Naruto, Makuro,Kiba,Gai, and surprisingly Shisui. 

After 2 hours of reaffirming to my mates that I was fine and well , I introduced my new mates.

The Hyugas were obviously pissed,  because of Ao but I quickly bit that in the bud by yelling at them and Ao genuinely apologizing..saying it was a different time ...the war.

They only reached an agreement to ignore each other which was better than fighting when Yagura suddenly announced at the same time as Utakata that they wanted to complete the bond.

At first I said no thinking the events of the day were getting to then when they told me the reasons why, they wished to do so.

Yagura said he nearly lost his mind when I was gone because it felt like he had failed the only thing he wanted that was more precious than anything in the world.

And Utakata wanted to because he wanted to quit being a ninja to spend more time with me and our future children. 

I agreed , so here we are on my large nest of a bed ready to bond my new Jinjuriki mates.

I kissed Yagura first, and nearly passed out from how much energy went between us.

It was like accepting a nuclear bomb of power that tasted like the most delicious and satisfying thing in the world.

Utakata was different than the others ...when we bonded I saw lights that were not yet bound to mine.

They were my mates to be, forming metaphorical rainbow shining a million different colors.

Ao,Kiri,And Zabuza's souls were blue, amber and Dark red before I was brought back to earth when Utakata pulled away with  a look of awe.

I wasn't the only one who saw the lights this time.

Chapter Text

                                                   Harri Pov

                      The first week was extremely hectic, probably because as soon as word was spread that our food donation stands were open and serving food to the poor we were almost ran over by the stampede of people .  I had to call in  Shinobi reinforcements in the first 20 minutes because Naruto,Kiba and i were almost lost in the crush of poor hungry civilians. i was able to quickly restore order with Yagura and Utatkata's help. It saddened me that it was because of fear, so i decided to try and change the common peoples opinion of the Jinchuriki by showing them they are not monsters, or weapons of destruction. That they are people, living feeling people like them.

So I convinced Yagura and Utakata to stay and hand out food to civilians, who at first refused to accept food from them out of fear until a brave woman stepped forward and took the care package from Yagura's hands with a soft thank you before leaving.

         That was the feather that broke the camels back, as the rush then resumed as the civilians realized that they were not going to be harmed. all of them clambering for food and supplies- by the time all the lines had thinned it was night time.  I along with Yagura, Utakata,Naruto,Kiba,Ao,Kiri, Makaro, and Kimimaro all fell asleep as soon as we reached or current home.

In a variety of places from the bathroom, the rug in front of the fire, and even on poor Shimon who was buried under a snoring Utakata.

The next day after I cooked a lovely breakfast, my mates and I once again separated I to two groups. One helping the construction crew to repair the village while building ducts that would collect rain and direct it to the water tower. The other one to give out needed supplies to the civilians. 

I was apart of the latter along with Yagura,Utakata, Naruto,  Kiba, Ao, Kiri,Makaro, Tatsuma,Neji,Muta,Shino,Zaji,Sai, Kabuto, Fu, Diarmuid, Sasuke,Zabuza, Kimimaro and Shikamaru .

While Gai, Yamato,Santa,Iruka, Iwashi, Shimon, Garou ,Itachi, Shisui, Hoheto, Tokuma,Ko, Kiri and Kotetsu helped the construction crews rebuild. 

Orochimaru, Jiro, Izumo and Ensui were building the shrine and our vacation home on our plot of land granted to us by the Mizukage- with Mei's help of course. 

Afterall in our opinion a womans touch is important. 

The second day was a lot smoother than the first, there was no mad crush forward as starving civilians grabbed the supplies as quick as possible. 

We were able to form ten lines each at one stall as we recorded all families and how many members they contained in our records so we knew how much of our resources were used that would be returned in kind as soon as I got Kirigakure's farm lands back in shape.

As we were handing out the food, two children came up the the stall to my right that held Yagura and Naruto.  A boy who looked to be around 11 years old with his sister who was still a toddler. 

When they were called forward the boys eyes glinted with hero worship aimed at my grey haired mate.

After telling Yagura how many were in his family 'specifically calling him my lord' and receiving his care package he blurted out that he always idolized Yagura because he was so strong and that he was his hero in a manner rather uncannily like Gai.

Yagura blushed deep red- as those close by including me  laughed at his constipated like expression as he struggled to get his 'fan' to step out of line so he can help the next person.

As I was distracted two hands covered my eyes and the scent of nightshade surrounded me.

"Guess who?" A playful baritone voice sounded in my ear.

I grinned and quickly turned around throwing myself into my Alpha's arms my tail waving behind me in my excitement. 

"Genma! I've missed you so much- what took you so long? Are the others with you?" I asked as I looked into his light brown eyes amusement coloring them.

"Yeah Kakashi is right behind me - Gai pulled him into the usual shenanigans but Ibiki and Aoba are still at the village.  Now where is my welcome home kiss?" He asks leaning down eyes mischievous. 

I smirked and kissed him, lips moving against his as fireworks exploded behind my eyes and a shiver ran up my spine before I pulled away from the so called peck. 

"There is your kiss now put me down! You are making a scene!"  I said as I caught sight of my other mates, shinobi and civilians alike gawking at us.

The former either with envy or hope - waiting for their own turn probably  especially Kiba he knows that I'll cave when he gives me his puppy eyes.

Genma huffed after seeing what I did and put me down just in time for me to get snatched up once again but this time by Kakashi. 

Who swung me under his arm with a quick, " I'm going to borrow our little Omega I'll be right back." And took off from roof top to roof top a cursing Genma following close behind all the way back home to our current quarters.

Where they both held me hostage for the rest of the day, where I cuddled with them both reaffirming our bond since their absence. Kakashi growled lowly at me any time I stopped running my hands through his hair acting much like Pakkun who I often gave hour long scratches to.

We all fell asleep only to be woken up hours later to dinner Orochimaru standing over our humongous bed with a spatula in his hand and a apron around his waist declaring dinner was ready.

I was immediately worried wondering if my snake like Alpha had decided to poison us all for one experiment or another only to be pleasantly surprised by the fish and received dish he made with a side of eggs.

I made sure to complement him extensively by being overenthusiastic with every bite and amplifying my noises of enjoyment that weren't entirely faked. 

Taking a break every now and then to thank him and kiss  him on the cheek- a pink blush rising on his pale skin.

Orochimaru immediately took advantage of my praise smiling smugly with his chest puffed up as he claimed a quick kiss as a prize for being the hero who made dinner when I couldn't. 

It was like I was back at the stands with how each mate started clambering for their own kiss , so I hurried to  give all of my mates a smooch and by the end of the line I was blushing and my veins buzzed like I had just eaten way to much dango.

Iruka carried me and Kimimaro to bed muttering about how most of my mates were complete idiot's by getting me so worked up before bed  laying me down in the middle of the nest like bed that covered the room Kiri slipping into my other side that was left open as my other mates started to fill in.

I was asleep curled up holding into Kakashi and Zabuza's hands as they laid down under and above me.

I fell asleep and rested better than I had I  awhile glad that some of my missing mates had returned. 

#####

At the end of the week all groups had finished construction on the village,  and the shrine so we spent all Sunday and Monday moving in to our new home in Kirigakure .

The halls were made of marble in the shrine big pillars and gold with silver inlaid all throughout the building . As we were led to our home that was slightly separate from the shrine I saw many statues of my goddess- my great something grandmother. 

It was a relief when we saw our home that was 4 leves, a palace basically to house my mates and our families. All of the rooms where large and open having warm furniture to contrast with the dark floors that were hardwood and carpet. 

Our bedroom was made of 5 separate rooms ,one was the bathroom,  one was a living or family area,  another was the closest,  one was the bedroom where the whole room was a bed made of cushions that only had floor space to move around the humongous bed and small cradle spaces for babies.  The last was a kitchen and dining room as I requested so that if we didn't wish to we didn't have to leave my quarters in the future during my heats.

All that was left of village reparations was to put a draining system made of pipes throughout Kirigakure's farming lands so the clay soil wouldn't get too wet which has caused many of the years crops to die from lack of oxygen. 

Ensui and Haku have worked tirelessly with the farmers and engineers to make the plan and were quite happy with its progress thereof making the Mizukage and elders happy as Already the people and ninja morale was high.

So much that Ao took us all out to the new and improved five star restaurant known for its sushi.

Ao admitted to planning this since the day after I met Zabuza knowing that for some reason I was craving seafood and wanting to treat me to a meal where I could have all the seafood I could want.

Afterwards I pulled Ao aside and said,  " You did good tonight- thank you." While looking at his eyes, down to his lips and up again.

Ao leaned down and kissed my forehead gently as if I was made of China then pulled away.

" Come let us go catch up to the others before the Hyuga think I have run off with you." Was given as explanation with a wry smile.

I laughed " Well seems like they have you mixed up with Kakashi afterall you do look alike ." I joked as I was hefted onto Ao's back as he ran to catch up with the others.

"Hey I resent that." Kakashi said appearing in front of us with a few other who stayed behind to wait on us Gai, Iruka, Hoheto , and Jiro included.

I cooed at him as an apology from behind Ao as we all headed home.

That night as we all prepared for bed Kiri cleared his voice getting our attention. 

"Hey guys, I know this may be sudden - but I have decided that I want to cement my bond with Hari tonight. "

I looked at him with a smile happiness running through my veins . "Are you sure..?" I questioned softly and Kiri nodded 

"I-I have too, I mean I wanted to cement our bond too." Kimimaro said speaking up his eyes bright with nerves but determined. 

I laughed and patted the empty  spaces by my side , "well come on then no time like the present." 

Kimimaro sat on my left while Kiri took the right. 

I scooted onto Kiri's lap and ran my hand through his black spiky hair, as he leaned forward and kissed me.

The energy was soothing like silk and  different from most of my other mates energies that were rather upbeat and sunny . It felt like standing in the moonlight and being covered in its light.

When I pulled away we were both breathing hard as we felt the bond cement between us.

"I- I think it's my turn now." 

Kimimaro's nervous intervention reminded us that we weren't alone and I laughed at my younger mates impatience. 

"You're right it's your turn come here." I said cheeky as I grabbed his cheeks and kissed him rather suddenly. 

I got flashes of emotions  surprise- joy- possessiveness- before that same feeling of welcoming home as the energy between us settled. 

When I pulled away the others gave congratulations as we finally prepared for bed. I felt sadness from the bond and saw that it was coming from Zabuza and Ao.

I then realized that they felt pressured into cementing our bond after Kiri and Kimimaro's declaration after searching the bond more for their emotions. 

Calling out to them I fibbed saying that I wanted them to sleep by my side tonight and when they came over crawling over my other mates that were already in their places for the night.

And when they got close I took their hands and looking them in the eyes I told them

' Hey I understand you might feel like you guys have to cement the bond with me because most if the others have..but please dont because our relationships are slightly different than the ones I have with the others. We will have our time so dont feel rushed, I love you both so much so I'm more than willing to wait.'  

Ao nodded eyes looking suspiciously wet as he laid down next to me but Zabuza was still staring at me as if he couldn't figure me out before laying down on top of me and sealing our lips in a searing kiss. My squeak cut in half as he devoured my lips with a hunger unknown. 

His energy was like a tidal wave of a tsunami,  knocking me over and enveloping me as flashes of memories flower over us - Zabuza carrying a little girl on his shoulders that had my eye as I carried a white haired baby- Zabuza holding her hand as we swung her between us before we were brought back to earth .

Shisui and Diarmuid both wolf whistled  from their spot not far from us- the noise that broke us from our frantic kissing. 

Zabuza gave then both a rude gesture before pulling me to him and covering my legs with his own.

I was still in shock when his gruff voice sounded in my head.

' I wasn't afraid of cementing the bond sweetheart I was upset that I didn't do it the day I met you like I wanted to. Now I have nothing to worry about. ' 

I huffed before snuggling into him as Kiri and Kimimaro snuggled into my back.

I loved them all so much , I couldn't imagine my life without them.

###

The next few days were taken up by getting the fields of Kirigakure into shape so farming could begin in time for the harvest to be ready in time.

One day when I was out in the fields with my younger mates Sasuke and Naruto fought again and knocked Shino and I into the dirt.

That soon spiraled into a muddy war as two factions were formed my younger mates vs my older ones mud flying and hitting anyone who was in the vicinity.  I laughed so hard I made myself slip in the mud when itachi and Shisui with Makaro's help got Hoheto and Iruka who had somehow escaped everyone else's attempts at mud balls.

Utakata had apparently given up on life and simply laid next to Shikamaru, Ensui and Tatsuma in the mud having all surrendered as soon as the fight had begun. 

I was still in vigorous combat with Santa and Gai when Ibiki and Aoba appeared right behind them.

And were hit in the face with the mud ballls meant  for the others who dodged in time.

Immediately I was surrounded by killing intent coming from both of my recently returned mates.

Because I had common sense I ran for my life- but it was all for naught as Ibiki caught me and almost suffocated me into the mud until I made promise to give him a massage for 3 hours. 

Only then did he release me and I shakily walked over to Aoba exclaiming that he was about to let Ibiki kill me and therefore was receiving no massage from me!

We all had to spend extra time in the baths that night,  and I gave many mates a massage after Ibiki's since I was in such a good mood.

Little did I know that it wouldn't last.

###

It was the day of graduation for the students at the ninja academy- everyone was solemn and I didn't know why until Kiri explained to me how the testing was done.

Never in my live have I ever moved that fast half of me still questions if I apperated to the Mizukage's office demanding that he discontinue the practice of the test .

The day was then filled with arguments and discussions from threats to negotiations but the elders on the council wouldn't budge- Although the test was postponed due to my actions Chiko herself delighted in rescheduling it herself for the next day.

Furious at this my magic made the vase next to her explode as I quickly left along with Kakashi, Orochimaru, Ensui,Santa and Ibiki. 

I was near tears when I got an idea- a crazy but possible idea and I as soon as I had gotten home I scrambled to write a letter to the Daimyo of the water country and hoped the letter would reach him in time.

Orochimaru asked what I had planned,  and after hearing it gave me a rare kiss on the lips his eyes filled with pride as he told me he now understood why I was meant for him.

I rolled my eyes, " I'm surprised you haven't figured that out by now "

#####

The next day I was on the second level of the testing site as the students were told of the changes of the test. First there was shock followed by fear and panic.

I breathed deeply my Muta's hand covering mine giving me strength as the students were forced to go into fighting positions while sobbing or in shock.

My other older mates that came along pushed comfort through our bonds as we all prepared to intervene when the students were instructed to start.

But before the command could be given a shinobi messenger appeared in the middle of the room called everything to a halt.

I almost jumped for joy when I saw it was Kaiza he had made it just in time.

One of the men on the council of elders stepped forward and demanded in his weaselly voice why the proceedings have been stopped- and what right my guard had in doing so.

Kaiza then looked at the elder like he was an insect under his shoe before unrolling the parchment and declared that this was a message from the Daimyo.

Kaiza then continued to read the new decree or law that was signed by the Daimyo that said no graduation test could be performed if it resulted in the death of students and didn't have the Instructors, students guardians or Megami no Jinja shrines permission and that any graduation test must receive two votes from one of the foremost groups. 

I remembered having a conversation with many of my mates last night about how I swayed the political leader to our side by offering him a chance to meddle in shinobi affairs and 'weaken' them so they wouldn't ever become too powerful. 

It seems he accepted that offer and boy did I enjoy Chiko's red angry face after the declaration was read .

But out of the corner of my eye I saw a student that had bright white hair collapse. 

I immediately jumped down from the second floor and landed in a roll next to the student Izuno following behind since he knew medical ninjutsu. 

I ran a diagnostic charms over the boy , and when seeing nothing was wrong other than severe shock I used my magic to wake him gently.  When his beautiful purple eyes opened and met mine I imprinted,  and I smiled. 

"Welcome back to the land of the living,  how are you feeling?" The boy blushed 

"I'm fine ." He said while standing up quickly as I got a glimpse of his sharp teeth.

" I can see that , so tell me what is your name?" I asked curiously 

"I'm Mangetsu Hozuki, priestess. " he responded before bowing suddenly as if remembering his manners.

I giggled,  " There is no need for that we are now family..so come tell me everything. About your family, what you like doing,  why you want to be a ninja and of course what your favorite foods and birthday. " I asked as I led him out towards the door as the elders raged over my newest victory.

My mates following behind us as we left, many laughing at our newest members discomfort the young Alpha's scent of rivers and salt flowing over me. 

#####

Turns out my newest Mate had a younger brother named Suigetsu who was absolutely adorable and fit right in step with Sasuke and Makuro. He especially followed around Zabuza like a puppy always trying to steal his sword like his elder brother. It was hilarious because Zabuza immediately grew jealous and raged at them whenever they tried. 

I even gained another mate by the name of Chojuro who lived with them in the new and improved orphanage as we were moving them to my home.

Chojuro was sitting in the meeting room by the front door reading a book with thick glasses and short blue hair.

Our eyes met briefly as I walked past and that was all that was needed as and imprint bond formed gaining us another member to our ever growing pack who was obsessed with becoming one of the seven swordsman. 

Chojuro surprisingly got along best with Fu and Sai my more quiet and unusual mates.

Here we go again. 

###

The next week and a half was spent farming as well as starting my shrine duties. Soon the crops were ahead of schedule because of my magic and my grandmother's blessings from the amount of prayers from the civilians. 

Everyone was happy,  so happy that on our last night there a huge festival was held filled with singing and dancing.  Especially by my villagers who brought instruments and entertainment items.

I ended up dancing with many of the young women who wore the long flowing dresses that were tight around our wrists and ankles yet flowing everywhere else leaving our stomachs exposed as we danced to the songs played.

When I finally couldn't dance anymore I sat on Diarmuids lap to regain my breath .

Diarmuid for some reason kept scenting me over and over , while glaring at any other male whose gaze even strayed in my direction as many of my mates did the same .

I huffed as it truly got old, and I stood and grabbed Ko's hand and asked if he would dance with me. 

He flushed and muttered how it isn't appropriate as I rolled my eyes.

Sai spoke up and said he would dance with me and I grinned at him in joy before pulling him up the small wood stage set up I the middle of the square. 

We both moved in tandem,  flowing like water as we danced back and forth over and out one another like yin and yang.

We were so mesmerizing that everyone stopped to stare at us, as we weaved around one another my giggling filling the stage.

I didn't  realize that we were the center of attention until Sai and I finished our dance my tails swaying with my hair as I breathed heavily. 

As I noticed I blushed red as I nearly ran off stage Sai following unti I went back to our table where all of my mates looked at me with want.

I sat next to Ao who looked to be the least likely to jump me as I started to eat some of his leftover food.

A strange feeling going through me , that I recognized as pleasure at my mates reaction. 

Later that evening when we returned home  Ao announced that he wished to cement our bond, along with Mangetsu, and Chojuro. 

Ecstatic that I would finally have all of my imprints bonded to me I immediately got to work and started with Ao.

His energy was full of pent up emotions from lust to love -confusion and disgust before finally settling on peace as he wrapped his arms around me and deepened our kiss in his hunger.

When he pulled away  I was breathing heavily and my eyes were unfocused. 

I flushed I  embarrassment as I let the moment get away from us before turning to Iwashi who was leaning forward eyes hopeful wanting a kiss as well. 

I chuckled and gave him his own kiss when-

A pointed cough reminded  me of Mangetsu who was sitting behind me waiting his turn. 

"Alright, Alright I'm coming. " I said but before I could turn Mangetsu's arms were around me and he leaned over my shoulder to kiss me.

This time I was able to see the others souls again- the ones I wasn't bonded too. One of them worried me because it was a deep blood red that had black veins going around his soul.

Mangetsu and I both pulled away from one another, knowing that what we had both seen should remain between us as our breath returned. 

Finally it was Chojuro's turn and when I hesitantly packed my lips on his warm ones I felt a burst of icy wind through my veins as our bond settled into the feeling of eternal home.

I was so exhausted after bonding to them that Iwashi had to carry me to bed. I was asleep before I even hit the pillow. 

###

The next day we set out early,  the civilians once again giving us tearful farewells and wishing us well onto our travels as our train headed to our next destination.  Sunagakure here we come.

Chapter Text

Hari POV

We've been on the road for 2 days the first was spent celebrating Kabuto's actual birthday that was the 29th much to the boys slight dismay as Naruto and the others demanded to sing him happy birthday. 

Now  it was the 30th the day of the month where me and my younger mates would age another year.

Chojuro and Kiri were nervous wrecks twittering around all day mumbling their worries aloud it was enough to drive anyone crazy.

Especially since the carriages had to land not to long ago because the threstrals couldn't fly any longer due to the strong winds of wind country so now we had to transfigure our carriages into sleighs that were pulled by humongous scorpions that appeared out of nowhere. 

After talking with them I realized that they were sent by Ame and wanted to join my 'free land of creatures' so they no longer had to fear about being hunted so that their plates could be used as armor. 

I quickly accepted and soon we had hundreds of black scorpions added to our long train in various sizes from that of a horse to an elephant. 

But back to the present I was Relaxing in front of the fire laying on Gai's bare chest as he dozed Itachi sitting next to us reading a book aloud in his smoky voice as Jirou, Yamato, Santa, Sasuke, Sai,Kimimaro, Neji ,Naruto and Shikamaru surrounded us.

When at 12 o'clock the familiar pain on agony went up and down my spine and limbs through my muscles as they swelled. 

Only a groan escaped me as the pain faded,  my body still shaking as the magic that caused the change diminished. 

Gai who was now wide awake sat up as gingerly as he could.

"How are you feeling,  little one - do you wish for us to get Neil?" He inqired while rubbing small circles onto my back. 

I shook my head, not wanting to awaken our designer/Make-up artist/ doctor.

I looked around and saw that my older mates were similarly checking on the others who changed as well.

Worried I sent a question through our bonds making sure no one was seriously injured.  All I learned was that some were feeling achy and that was all.

I looked to Itachi(12) and Shisui (13)who were closest to me and saw that Itachi was now the tallest while Shisui was more broad much to the elders displeasure.

I stood legs shaking like a colt as I went to them , a little taller and fuller than I was earlier. 

Just in time to hear Shisui ,  " You got lucky Cousin next month we will see that I will be that taller one just wait and see." 

I giggled and ran my hand up Shisui's stomach mapping out the dips and grooves of his newly formed 8 pack.

"Well love, you are more muscular than Itachi so why dont you let him be the taller one ." I teased before  quickly darting away to Kimimaro(9) and Fu (14) dodging Shisui's attempts at grabbing me.

Itachi's quiet mocking laugh sounding behind me.

Kimimaro had grown taller and more lean, not looking as wraith like as he did before. 

Fu on the other hand lost what was remaining of his baby fat and was taller than Ko while not a broad as my muscular mate.

"How are you guys feeling are you Alright?" I asked while simultaneously feeling their foreheads with the back of my hand .

Kimimaro nodded in response to my question while Fu answered. 

"Yes I feel fine , see." And put his forehead across mine his orange hair tickling my cheek as I blushed at his closeness. 

"Yes I see." I choked out before kissing his cheek and moving over to the group that contained many of my younger mates who were measuring one another's height and weight.

It consisted of Kiri (14), Sai(6),Shikamaru(6), Sasuke(6), Naruto(6), Kiba(6),Shino(6), Tatsuma (13), Makaro(9),Zaji(13),Kabuto(11),Neji(6), Shino (6), Chojuro(10), and Mangetsu(13).

Kiri was the tallest which makes sense he was the oldest, as he explained to a fiery Mangetsu who had grown as did his hair that was almost as long as mine.

Honestly I should be the one upset about my height despite being 8 years old all of my mates are taller than me except for Naruto's generation! I mused as I continued to watch the group get even more rowdy as Kiba and Naruto rolled around the floor until Naruto yielded after getting his long blond hair pulled by a merciless Kiba.

As I watched Naruto struggle to pull his hair back it seemed like they are all going to need haircuts tomorrow  because everyone's hair was long.

As well as new wardrobes since we all changed by growing bigger-Neil and his assistants are going to have a field day.

"Well it seems everyone is doing fine - since you all are so lively but it's late we really should be going to bed especially since we are arriving at Suna tomorrow. " almost everyone groaned at my statement while heading towards our bed.

I followed and found a spot between Aoba and Kabuto and fell fast asleep as did most of us under the watch of our elders  eyes.

###

The next day my mates and I were awoken early in the morning and immediately thrown into getting prepared for the parade.

This time the train included gifts of water that were acquired in Kirigakure, weapons and leather armor, as well as beautiful plants of all types of purposes along with fruits that were gifts for the ninja village.

Some would be thrown into the crowds along with flower petals as well as little Jewelry trinkets. 

And this time instead of birds we brought Zorses, Camels, Addax antelopes, Rabbits and Fennex foxes. Animals that would survive and thrive In The desert climate without tipping the ecosystems balance. 

My pride and joy was all of the fabrics, books, instruments, toys and cosmetics we were bringing to Suna as they would enjoy them even though they were not as needed as the water and plants.

They were meant as presents for the Civilians and Ninja- things that both parties would enjoy.

The only thing I was concerned about was if our train would be able to fit on the route that was agreed upon- but with some help I was able to make our procession fit Although it would be a lot longer that I planned.

I was broken out of my musings as Neil let me know that it was  time to get into position as we neared the village gates our escorts from the sand village have already arrived. 

I looked at myself one more time in the mirror my large green Kohl lined eyes stared back at me. 

Deeming myself ready I left the carriage with Garou by my side into blinding sunlight. 

Thank goodness for my magic, because I know for a fact that without it I would be burning to a crisp in the outfit I was wearing. 

Harri's outfit

My Jewelry clinked with every step I took, as I walked with my mates onto the very slim float we would be riding upon.

Ibiki,  Gai, Genma,  Aoba , Santa, Yamato, Kakashi, Ensui, Kotetsu, Iruks,Izumo,Shimon,Iwashi,Ao, Garou, Diarmuid, Jirou ,Zaji, Kabuto, Fu, Naruto, Neji, Shino, Sasuke, Muta, Makaro,  Shikamaru, Itachi,Shisui,  Sasuke, Kiba,Hoheto, Ko,Takuma, Tatsuma, Ko, Orochimaru,  Kimimaro, Zabuza,Yagura, Utakata, Kiri, Sai, Mangetsu,  and Chojuro all stared. 

Expressions ranging from embarrassment- horror- Love - lust - shock to anything in between.  Iruka and some of the other lik Jirou immediately tried to have me go back and change but were beaten back by a determined Neil who refused to change my outfit. 

As I on the other hand stared at all of my handsome mates in the gleaming sunlight. 

Jirou and his strong muscles were bared to the sun as his wings hung folded onto his back. His shirt consisted of mainly sleeves, a black under layer covered by white billowing sleeves.  While his trousers were black covered with a black sash with golden and red ties and baubles. 

Jirou's outfit

Diarmuid's eyes matched his purple vest to a T the large V showing some skin , as the pants had a matching blue green pattern on the black fabric matching his belt.

Diarmuid's outfit

Ibiki wore black boots with white Trousers, a black shirt with a black  overcoat both with designs of gold. Showing off his muscles without showing any skin. His bald head shone in the light as well as the skars that were slowly disappearing from the cream and healing sessions we had every few days.

Ibiki

Garou wore black pants with a skirt attached to the back, his half shirt consisted of black and golden sleeves which brought out his golden eyes and didn't clash with his silver white hair.

Garou

Fu wore a white and orange fur cloak with a tan vest, black pants and boots. The more western look brought out his sharp features and went well with his beautiful hair.

Fu

Orochimaru wore a fishnet shirt that had only one sleeve and seemed to be a mix a black or dark purple as it appeared to be one color of different lighting.  As well as black Trousers with green and gold vines embroidered onto the sides (just pretend its there).

Orochimaru

Ensui wore a more Military outfit that consisted of a dark green one shoulder cloak, dark green pants with a golden belt and a white button up shirt that went amazingly with his eyeliner. 

Ensui

Ko wore a floor length purple cloak that had a good with purple pants.  The jems that were paired with it made his eyes gleam in an ethereal light. As well as showing off his stomach muscles that rippled like water.

Ko

Kimimaro went with a all black outfit that only had one sleeve and laces up the front of the leg. The good was pulled back as his beautiful long white hair was on show with parts of his pale fair skin that contrasted beautifully with his outfit. 

Kimimaro

I was brought out of my Haze by Keiza leading me up to my throne like chair and just in time to as our float then started to head forward in march.

My mates and I were sat in a rectangular shape with me all the way in the back a little higher than the others so I could be seen.

I nervously played with my wrist bangles as we got closer and closer to the village gates where I could hear the voices of the civilians gasping and shouting. 

Finally what seemed like forever I passed over the entrance of the village and was met with the scrutiny of the people. 

I smiled and waved at the crowd of heavily covered people,  sometimes throwing jewelry or flowers into the crowd when suddenly they started throwing a flower back- Roses hundreds of Roses were tossed at my mates and I as the precedings continued. 

I laughed joyously over the music playing the song Anubis ( the branberg version on YouTube) and looked towards Gai while mouthing ' can you believe this?' He shook his head in reply before looking forward once again as Ensui called his name.

Not long after our raft started to turn sharply into the City central where the same group of mates as last time would go with me to meet the Kazekage and his council to renew the treaty and all that jazz.

The other floats were already packing down as shinobi were leading away all the animals and other gifts I had brought including the water tower on wheels to a storage area. 

Soon I followed my mates off of our own float as the gates behind us closed the civilians out of the cities heart.

I got impatient and jumped off the raft into Zabuza's arms despite Iruka and Hoheto's yells for me to be careful. 

I was so immersed with my mates that I hadn't realized the Kazekage and his family had come to greet us.

Until the man himself cleared his throat I hurried up and turned around giving a curtsey .

I looked up and met grayish brown eyes, the brother of the Kazekage Sasori of the red sand and imprinted  .
