Tom rushed up to the stool and rammed the mangy old hat on his head excitedly.
"Aha!" said a voice; almost as soon as the hat had touched his hair "I know JUST where to put you!"
Tom could hardly breathe-his lungs seemed to have stopped working whilst his heart was working double time.
He was at HOGWARTS.. He would stretch the boundaries of magic further than any other wizard or witch before him. He would learn how to become the greatest, most evil wizard to ever walk this earth, his followers would be many, his equals-none. His enemies, and anyone who had ever wronged him…he would deal with, severely.
He sat on the edge of his stool, waiting for the hat to call that one word, the word that could change EVERYTHING. The house he so desperately wanted to be in. The name he had read, time and time again in that book "Dark lords through the ages." He needed only wait one more second before…
"HUFFLEPUFF!"
What?
