Ted Remus Lupin - 2009

I am so nervous. This is worse than the time my 5 and 4 year old cousins turned by skin green with silver dots with one of my uncles sweets. It is me and a whole bunch of other eleven year olds standing in front of a whole bunch of older kids and they are all staring at us. The hat had just sang its song and Professor Flitwick started calling out names.

Arlen, Lukas

"RAVENCLAW"

Avery, Erin

"HUFFLEPUFF"

Bradley, Noah

"GRYFFINDOR"

Buford, Talia

"SLYTHERIN"

Soon it came to

Dursley, Dahlia

"RAVENCLAW"

The sorting continued but I was in my own little land. My mind was saying "What if you're sorted into Slytherin or worse, your not sorted at all? What if the Hat just said they had made a mistake and you were not a wizard? I didn't get much further when I heard;

Lestrange, Matilda

"SLYTHERIN"

And finally

Lupin, Ted

As soon as my name was called, I felt my hair turn a bright shade of white as my face did. I slowly walked up there and slide the hat gracefully over my head. As soon as I see the black of the silk, I heard a calming voice.

"So this is what happens when you combine the werewolf Remus Lupin and the metamorphamagus Nymphadora Tonks. You get Ted Lupin. You seem so much like your mother, loyal and just, and also a little clumsy. But then there is your father, brave, intellectual and worried about being accepted. Finally, there is you. You are smart and fit to be a leader and yet yearning for me to make it so you will fit into wherever I place you. "

After a few minutes, he said; "You know what. I have an idea. I think that you, Ted Lupin, will fit well in

"HUFFLEPUFF"

I heard the cheering and saw all the people wanting to be my friend. As I walked to that table, I felt my hair and eyes change. I did not recognize the colors meanings at all. Then I realized that it was my natural look. Finally, after 11 years of uncertainty, my brain said "Welcome home Teddy".
