A/N:Hi everyone, this is my first story, so while constructive criticism is always welcome I ask that you please be nice about it. Enjoy!
Disclaimer:I was hardly a newborn when the first book of Harry Potter was published, there's no way I own it.
The doors to the Great Hall opened and the First Years filed in, looking as nervous as they did every year. Albus Potter expected this, he'd seen it for the last five years. He smiled at the first years, remembering how he'd felt before the Sorting Ceremony. Then what Albus wasn't expecting were the three teenagers walking in behind the little ones.
Albus wasn't the only one to notice this either, a small whisper ran through the crowd. The murmur was silenced by a stern glare from Professor McGonagal and the Sorting hat began to sing.
Albus looked at the strangers then.
They stood in a sort of triangle, the two boys in the front and the girl standing a little behind them. They looked very different, but there was something about their face structure that made them look alike. The tallest one, a boy, stood on the left. He had medium-brown hair cut longish so it covered his forehead. He had blue-green eyes, and was well built, sturdy and muscular. He stood at least 8 inches above the other two. He was dressed in regular cloaks and bright red converse high tops.
The other boy was the shortest of the trio. He had dark hair just a little longer than the other boy's and big golden brown eyes. The boy was lean, standing straight with peculiar multicolored shoes peeking out from under his cloaks.
Albus's eye moved to the girl.
She stood tall almost in between the heights of the boys, maybe 5'3" or so. She had a curvy build which gave her a pretty figure. Her skin was cream colored, but still had a light gold tint to it. She had lighter hair than the tall boy, but with the same blonde-brown mixture with a slight touch of red in different lights. It hung at where her ribs would start. Her eyes were hazel, a light green base with a golden brown ring in the middle. Under her cloaks were black boots that had a small heel.
All three held themselves with a certain confidence. The tall boy looked ready for anything, the other had on a face that challenged everyone to confront him. The girl again looked like a mixture of the two, knowing that she could take on everything but not really wanting to.
Just then the sorting hat stopped singing and Albus's eyes returned to the stool. He watched the ceremony and clapped when a student became a Gryffindor (there were about ten new house members this year). When the last student took their seat Professor McGonagal's voice rang out, "As many of you have noticed we have three new students joining us this year, aside from the first years. They come from America and will be starting in their 5th year."
McGonagal called the first name, it was the girl, Valerie. She sat and the Sorting Hat analyzed the possibilities for about a minute before crying out "Gryffindor!" They clapped and cheered. Valerie tossed a smile to the boys now behind her and joined the ranks of the table towards the end. When she sat down McGonagal called "Mitchell" and the shorter boy moved forward, the Hat took another moment to decide and cried "Gryffindor!" again. Mitchell moved to the end of the table and sat down next to Valerie, they exchanged grins. The last one, Daniel, moved forward and the Sorting Hat cried, "Slytherin!". This was a shock to Albus who had been expecting another Gryffindor, his eyes flashed to the Americans' faces. Valerie looked a little surpised, Mitchell looked untroubled. They both smiled when Daniel's eyes caught theirs. The Feast began, along with laughter and the welcoming of new students.
