Sorting Ceremony

Summary: On the first day of their life in Hogwarts, Tatsuya and his friends are ready for sorting ceremony.

Genre: Humor and Romance

S hips: Mayumi and Tatsuya, Mari and Nao (Hinted).

The first year students of Hogwarts are rushing into the Great Hall, led by Hoonami sensei. Soon Yakumono sensei gestures Hoonami sensei to begin the sorting ceremony.

Through many generations, the children of the ten master clans have been sorted into Slytherin house with an exception of a Saegusa, 500 yearsago,who was sorted into Gryffindor. This year another crop of the 5 children has come this year and are thought to be sorted into Slytherin. Will there be anything different or will it be the same as every year?

Hoonami: Nakajou Azusa. Please come forward.

Azusa: Yes. (She starts to proceed.)

Mayumi: Good luck A-chan (She says with thumbs up and a wink while A-chan pouts in disapproval of her given nickname. Once on chair, Hoonami sensei puts the sorting hat on top of A-chan's head.)

Sorting hat: Hmmm… Let's see… Ravenclaw. (Hoonami takes the hat away while A-chan stands up smiling at her friends, who are cheering for her.)

Hoonami: Chiba Erika. (With that she proceeds and sits on the chair with an old hat on top of her head.)

Sorting hat: Another Chiba huh- Gryffindor. (Happy with her results, departs with a wide grin on her face.)

Hoonami: Cardinal George.

Masaki: You better get into Slytherin George.

George: No worries there. (With a tap on Masaki's shoulder, takes his leave.)

Sorting hat: Slytherin. (With a knowing smile he leaves.)

Hoonami: Mitsui Honoka. (After a sigh and gathering her nerves, leaves her friend's side)

Sorting hat: I know exactly where you belong- Hufflepuff.

Hoonami: Juumonji Katsuto. (At the name, whispers start to begin as the first of this year's crop of the 10 was walking with an intimidating presence, far above his age.)

Sorting hat: Do you want to go in Hufflepuff?

Katsuto: My father warned about this.

Sorting hat: So I'm not gonna have any fun this year. Juumonji's are my favorite after all.

Katsuto: I guess you'll have to wait for a decade or two then. I can assure you can have your fun next time.

Sorting hat: HaaHaaHaa… Alright then- Slytherin. (It says the last part seriously, unlike the tone it has been using.)

Hoonami: Leonhard Saijo.

Sorting hat: Gryffindor. (With excitement written all over his face, heads towards his table where he starts to have a quarrel with a red haired girl.)

Hoonami: Watanabe Mari.

Mari: See you soon Mayumi. (Waves at the said girl.)

Mayumi: Take proper care of Nao, Mari. (Said girl blushes and leaves quickly.)

Sorting hat: Watanabe huh… Gryffindor. (The girl gets going, eager to see her crush while a certain red haired girl is not pleased at all.)

Hoonami: Ichijou Masaki. (The reaction is similar to the one given to Katsuto as he walks with an elegance befitting of a member of the 10.)

Sorting hat: Slytherin. 'Wonder if I'll have someone interesting today.' (The wish it didn't was about to come true soon. After a 3 more students, something was going to happen that was seen only once in many years.)

Hoonami: Saegusa Mayumi.

Tatsuya: 'This one's got to be interesting.' (Unaware himself how true it was soon gonna be.)

Suzune: Good luck Mayumi. (Mayumi winks at Suzune, and then proceeds bravely towards the hat. Everyone just stares in awe at the crimson eyed beauty as she walks with elegance matching her beauty. As she sits down, the sorting hat is placed on top her head.)

Sorting hat: Hmmm… interesting…

Mayumi: What is interesting Sorting hat-san? (Looking puzzled and confused.)

Sorting hat: I see cleverness, determination, leadership, bravery and righteousness. Which one to put you in – Gryffindor or Slytherin? Interesting indeed. (Mayumi was looking around her nervously as she has already taken the most time in sorting this year and it was still going on.)

Mayumi: I am sorry for taking so long. (Embarrassed at herself for taking so long. Since members of the 10 are put into Slytherin, even she didn't expected this to take so long)

Sorting hat: What are you apologizing child. I like it when I have to ponder for a brief amount of time and I take their opinion into account in this situation. Which one of the two I previously mentioned would you prefer? (Mayumi ponders a little.)

Mayumi: I don't really have a preference. I'll go with whatever you sort me into. Both are great houses after all.

Sorting hat: I see you're just like him. You seem to be a person who enjoys company with everyone. Then I suppose – Gryffindor. (At this, Mayumi just smiles and proceeds to her table. Everyone is shocked, especially Slytherin house, members of the 10 except one. But nonetheless, Gryffindor students are quite happy, especially her friend Mari, and are welcoming her with a lot of noise.)

Yakumono: Silence. (Stands up and says to stop the growing commotion.) 'Never thought I'd see such a thing.'

Mari: Told you I'll meet you soon. (Says with a wink.)

Mayumi: It seems so. (Quite happy to be with her friend)

Hoonami: 'Well that was indeed unexpected. Okay moving on to next.' Yoshida Mikihiko. (Miki goes to the designated positions and take the hat on his head.)

Sorting hat: Hah… (At this Miki is a little terrified.) No fun at all- Ravenclaw.

Miki: (sigh) 'I almost got a heart attack from that voice. (He's slowly standing up.)

Sorting hat: What did you say? (At this Miki makes a run for his table.)

Hoonami: Yotsuba Miyuki.

Miyuki: Onii-sama?

Tatsuya: Go on Miyuki. (As she proceeds, many wonder if it will be a new sight or the usual.)

Sorting hat: Slytherin. (Miyuki looks at her brother, who just smiles at her.)

Hoonami: Shibata Mizuki.

Sorting hat: Hufflepuff.

Hoonami: Kitayama Shizuku. (With an expressionless face she makes the way.)

Sorting hat: Hmmm… Nice… I see no ambition, loyalty, honesty and wisdom. Say which one would you want to be in – Hufflepuff or Ravenclaw? I give you a choice.

Shizuku: Then let's see – maybe Hufflepuff.

Sorting hat: I see your friend is in that house. Then so be it- Hufflepuff. (With the same expressionless face she joins her housemates at the table.)

Honoka: I'm glad to be in the same house Shizuku. (She hugs her friend.)

Shizuku: Same here Honoka. (Returning the hug. After a little while only two students are left.)

Hoonami: Ichihara Suzune.

Sorting hat: Ravenclaw. (With a smile she proceeds towards her table.)

Hoonami: Yotsuba Tatsuya. (As the last student and a member of the 10, he was being observed thoroughly. His sister looks at him hopefully. He reaches the chair and settles on it. Hoonami places the sorting hat on top of him.)

Mayumi: This one's going to be interesting as well. (Though she speaks in a very low tone, someone seems to have heard a little.)

Mari: Did you say something?

Mayumi: Oh-no. (Faking innocence)

Sorting hat: Ah-hah… (Tatsuya understood that it means that it's gonna take a while) Never thought a Yotsuba would be a difficult one.

Tatsuya: Guess there's always a first time. (Miyuki looks uncomfortable, since it was taking a long time.)

Sorting hat: Sarcasm, I see. Indeed interesting. So let's see Ambitious, brave, Charismatic, loyal, righteous, wise and clever. Could be any of the four. Which one would like to be in? (He wonders a little.)

Tatsuya: I'll leave it up to you.

Sorting hat: Wise choice. Same as her huh. (Tatsuya understood who the sorting hat was referring to and just sighs a little.) Very well then- Gryffindor. (Tatsuya heads over to his table with a small smile on his face.)

Miyuki: 'Onii-sama. It can't be possible.' (Shocked and stunned by the outcome)

Mari: It is completely unheard of. Till today for centuries members of the 10 were sorted into Slytherin except one, that too 500 years ago. To think that two will be sorted into a different house in the same year was unimaginable. But given it was you two, I guess it was imaginable. Now I guess you can keep your Tatsuya in check Mayumi.

Mayumi: Fufufu… It's going to be interesting from now on. (Tatsuya reaches them.) ~Tatsuyaaa~

Tatsuya: (Sweat dropping) I smell trouble.

Mayumi: (Pouts) ~Don't be like this Tatsuya~

Tatsuya: We two took the same time right? (Changing the topic.)

Mayumi: I know you're trying to escape. But anyways you're right. (She gives a look to Mari.)

Mari: Well it was expected to be honest. (While smirking)

M ayumi: After all it's a destined love. (Tatsuya facepalms)

A.N. Hope you like it. For those who didn't realized few roles they were like

Hoonami- Minerva McGonagall.

Yakumono- Albus Dumbledore.

If I would come with more scenarios of one shots in harry potter universe, I would update new chapters. Feel free to give requests as well. I will consider them genuinely if I would find them interesting.
