September 1, 2019, Thursday Evening
One night at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry at the year of 2019 a girl that had a hood up her was waiting outside waiting for the right time to appear. She had a smile on her face and she was quite beautiful for girl, she almost looks like a full-grown woman. She waited for 2 years to finally convince her parents to let her come at Hogwarts but she was not going to Hogwarts for her education since she already took her OWLS and NEWTS. While she's waiting let's see what was happening inside.
Meanwhile inside the school a man around 40s was walking towards the big doors to the children, first years, waiting outside to be sorted. One of the children was the mysterious girl's cousin named Lily Luna Potter, the daughter of Harry Potter and Ginny Weasley, who were teaching at Hogwarts.
She was waiting patiently outside, she knew that wherever she was sorted her family will always love her. Beside her was her cousin, Hugo Weasley also on the other side of her was their friend Kate Rosier. They were whispering quietly to each other till the man arrived.
When he finally arrived he said,
"Welcome to Hogwarts" he said. "My name is Professor Neville Longbottom, the Deputy Headmaster and Herbology Professor. The start-of-term banquet will begin shortly, but before you take your seats in the Great Hall, you will be sorted into your houses. The Sorting is a very important ceremony because, while you are here, your house will be something like your family within Hogwarts. You will have classes with the rest of your house, sleep in your house dormitory, and spend free time in your house common room.
"The four houses are called Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, and Slytherin. Each house has its own noble history and each has produced outstanding witches and wizards. While you are at Hogwarts, your triumphs will earn your house points, while any rulebreaking will lose house points. At the end of the year, the house with the most points is awarded the house cup, a great honor. I hope each of you will be a credit to whichever house becomes yours.
"The Sorting Ceremony will take place in a few minutes in front of the rest of the school. I suggest you all smarten yourselves up as much asyou can while you are waiting."
His eyes lingering at Lily and her friends as he smiled at them.
"I shall return when we are ready for you," said Professor Longbottom. "Please wait quietly."
He left the chamber.
The first years waited for him to come back. While they were waiting for him the ghost of each houses greeted them. When he finally went back he said,
"Move along now." said a soft tone. "The Sorting Ceremony is about to start."
"Form two lines and follow me."
Lily had never even imagined such a strange and splendid place. It was lit by thousands and thousands of candles that were floating in midair over four long tables, where the rest of the students were sitting. These tables were laid with glittering golden plates and goblets. At the top of the hall was another long table where the teachers were sitting.
Professor Longbottom led the first years up here, so that they came to a halt in a line facing the other students, with the teachers behind them. The hundreds of faces staring at them looked like pale lanterns in the flickering candlelight. Dotted here and there among the students, the ghosts shone misty silver.
Her family told her stories but she never guessed that Hogwarts would be this beautiful.
Lily quickly looked down again as Professor Longbottom silently placed a four-legged stool in front of the first years. On top of the stool she put a pointed wizard's hat. This hat was patched and frayed and extremely dirty.
For a few seconds, there was complete silence. Then the hat twitched. A rip near the brim opened wide like a mouth - and the hat began to sing:
"Oh, you may not think I'm pretty,
But don't judge on what you see,
I'll eat myself if you can find
A smarter hat than me.
You can keep your bowlers black,
Your top hats sleek and tall,
For I'm the Hogwarts Sorting Hat
And I can cap them all.
There's nothing hidden in your head
The Sorting Hat can't see,
So try me on and I will tell you
Where you ought to be.
You might belong in Gryffindor,
Where dwell the brave at heart,
Their daring, nerve, and chivalry Set Gryffindors apart;
You might belong in Hufflepuff,
Where they are just and loyal,
Those patient Hufflepuffis are true And unafraid of toil;
Or yet in wise old Ravenclaw,
if you've a ready mind,
Where those of wit and learning,
Will always find their kind;
Or perhaps in Slytherin
You'll make your real friends,
Those cunning folk use any means
To achieve their ends.
So put me on! Don't be afraid!
And don't get in a flap!
You're in safe hands (though I have none)
For I'm a Thinking Cap!"
The whole hall burst into applause as the hat finished its song. It bowed to each of the four tables and then became quite still again.
"When I call your name you will put on the hat and sit on the stool to be sorted" said Professor Longbottom as he rolled a parchment and called each names.
Many names passed as it landed on Rosier, Kate,
"SLYTHERIN" the hat said as the hall clapped politely
Finally Professor Longbottom finally stopped on Lily,
"Potter, Lily" he said as whispers started, she just rolled her eyes at that as she seen her father on the Head Tables,
"Mmm, yes, she will be happy to have you there," said the hat
"Huh, who?" she asked
"That's for another time. Now you belong at each house like your father and siblings but only one house is perfect for you, she could teach you many things" it said again
"Slytherin right ?" she asked with a smile
"Yes, Ms. Potter so Slytherin then," it said to her
"Yeah, if my parents said they are okay in anyhouse then fine, besides its where I belong then okay" she smiled at it
"SLYTHERIN" the hat said as there were complete silence as she rolled her eyes
"Seriously, " she said as she smiled up at the Head Table aand saw that her parents were beaming at her proudly
Names past as it arrives on her cousin Hugo who was sorted into Slytherin.
"Welcome," said Professor McGonagall " Welcome to a new year at Hogwarts. Now let's begin the banquet."
As soon as she finished saying that food appeared. Students were talking at each other. 10 minuets later there was someone banging at the door. As soon as the banging started the teachers sudenly got up to their feet as the doors to The Great Hall opened as a tall figure appeared walking slowly toward the teacher.
"STOP! Show your self!"McGonagall ordered
The fugure only smirked under her hood as soon as she lowered her hood there were gasps of suprise,
The figure was a girl about the age of 13 she was dressed in a dress that stopped mid-thigh, white boots and on her wrist were priceless bracelets, on her neck were 2 necklaces, the other one was a key of some sort. Her curly,shiny hair stopped at waist length, the hair was colored dark auburn red hair with silvery-golden-blond tips, her eyes were strange, it was colored as icy silver-gold-blue eyes with hints of red at them, her skin was pale like the Malfoys, her nails were three-quarters long with silver-white-gold.
"Really, Grandma. i thinks there's no nedd for that." she said as the teacher snapped out of their trance,
"Jasmine!" Minerva, Harry, Ginny, Draco, Astoria, Hermione, Neville and Kris yelled incredulousy
"Yup." she popped the 'p' "The one and only Jasmine Pendragon. Miss me?" she asked as she smirked at them
"I...I.." they sputtered at her
"Aww. Come on Guys!" she said as she opened her arms at them as Harry quickly hugged her
"We missed you, you know." Harry whispered in her ear as he kissed her forehead
"I missed you too, Uncle Harry. All of you" she told him as Ginny, Draco, Astoria, Hermione, Neville and Kris hugged her too
"What are you doing here? I thought you weren't aloud to go out" Draco asked her
"I came to teach of course, I teaching Defense Against The Dark Arts and Music of course if you would let me and to your second question, my dear godfather. Mum already agreed 2 years ago but I had to convince Dad too, I convinced him this summer." she said at them smugly
"Of course, you're allowed, I know you can convince Binns to move on." Minerva told her
"But how did you convince him?" Draco asked her
"Don't you all know me at all, I blackmailed him" she saw their looks and said " I blackmailed him into not letting him in the Entertainment or Game Room at the castle of course he argued but I won. " she smiled at them smugly
"Only you Jamsine would do that, only you" Ginny told her as she shook her head and smiled at her
"I guess introductions are in order,"
"Of Course"
"Well I'm Jasmine Pendragon you're new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher and Music teacher and I'm 13 yrs. old" she told them as they gaped at her
"You're only 13, how can you teach us" A 2rd year Slytherin said
"I doubt you want to know why, don't underestimate me. you'll never know what might happen to you" she responded at him
"Well, continue" Minerva said to the students as the students lead back to talking about the new teacher and the teachers retreated back to their seats
While Jasmine was being lead to her seat between Harry and Draco, a 3rd Year Slytherin was watching every step she moved, he seemed fascinated by her, this boy's name was Scorpius Malfoy, the son of Draco Malfoy and Astoria Malfoy nee Greengrass.
When Jasmine arrived at her seat she felt that someone was watching her and saw that a blonde boys was staring at her, she asked Draco on who he was,
"Oh, you never met my son, I forgot, Sorry. His name's Scorpius, he's third year" he answered her
"Really? He's quite handsome" she said. When Jasmine realized what she said she blushed,
"Really?" he laughed "Of course he is, he is my son after all" he laughed again as she blushed. Harry ask Draco why he was laughing and he answered,
"Jasmine here thought that Scorpius is handsome." When he finished saying that she blushed again as Harry laughed
"Yeah, yeah. Laugh at me" they only laughed harder
"Hey Grandma," she said
"Yes dear" she answered her
"Can you let all the Weasley, all the Potters, all the Malfoys, Ms. Rosier and Mr. Zabini stay after the feast" she told her
Minerva looked at her suspicious but said okay and asked why, she only answered
"You'll see" she said her eyes twinkling merrily
She adverted her to Scorpius who was still looking at her, she stared back at him and after a few minutes of staring he finally looked away, they didn't notice that the teachers at the Head Tables noticed the staring while Draco, Harry, Astoria, Ginny, Hermione, Neville and Kris looked at each other.
