What the Hell Just Happened?

With a WHAM! Alyssa woke up from her sleep. As she opened her eyes, looked at the floor. It wasn't carpeted.
"No. It CAN'T be! I'm---"
"What are you doing in the middle of the hallway, and wearing THAT?! That looks like MUGGLE CLOTHING?! Are you a muggle, you little lost girl?"
Holy shit! That's PROFESSOR SNAPE!!!!! And...he's so pissed. I'm fucked!
"I don't have time to put up with your incompetence you sorry excuse for a human, come along!"
She followed the professor for what seemed like a good half-hour she guessed as her watch had stopped working, down the stone hallway and into the Great Hall.
"Headmaster, I found this muggle outside the Slytherin common room..."
I WAS OUTSIDE THE SLYTHERIN COMMON ROOM?!
"...she needs to be dealt with," the Potions Master continued, "If I may, Headmaster?"
"Yes, Severus?"
"I propose we forego the Sorting and place her in a house based on her choosing."
"What say you, Miss. Becker?"
How'd he know my name?! "I'd—rather be---"
Alyssa felt a voice in her mind..."give in...be one of us...be in the best house ever..."
"The poor girl's skull took a good knock, Sir. If I may...?"
"Certainly. Miss Becker, Professor Snape is going to tell us where you ought to be placed, until such time as we can return you to your home in the United States."
