« Gryffindor ! » the hat yelled
Beweldirement was obvious on each and every face in the great hall , this was something no one expected , even the ghosts looked paler , silence swept the great hall , professor McGonagall collected herself and said in what she hoped was a stern voice « you may join your house mates !»
The girl hopped down and headed to the Gryffindor house table , she looked afraid , well , Minerva herself was , she hoped her cubs would take this girl among them and treat her fairly . the weasley twins got up and started clapping as hard as they could , these boys made her proud , it's true that not all of the Gryffindor house cheered and clapped as usual , but she was glad to some of the others join the boys .
all Dumbledore could think of is that this year was going to be an interesting one , the daughter of Voldemort in the same year and house as the boy that vanquished him , he felt that the girl was nothing like him, looking at that beautiful child with her emerald green eyes and black ebony hair brought back the memory of tom riddle , the boy was confident and satisfied of what he was whenever he looked into his eyes all Albus would see was greed for power while this girl looked far too young to be here ,far too innocent to face what he knew would happen to her .
Calista riddle , that's her name , but only he , and the professors at Hogwarts knew the name , for the rest of the world she is Calista the daughter of he who must not be named , the ministry of magic did not want the girl and the rest of the world to know about voldemort's real name , years back when the dark lord was vanquished the ministry ordered the Malfoys to take her in , but of course they refused to give their family name , in the summer when Minerva was checking the list of the new students she found her among them , although she was only 10 years , it wasn't very common but it happened before , sometimes a young witch or wizard's powers get developed before they reach the age of 11 which makes it necessary for them to start learning how to control it and that can only be done at Hogwarts , the Malfoys were very reluctant to let her join the school but Dumbledore would have none of it , to revenge their failure in forbidding the girl education ,the Malfoys made sure a huge article was published in the daily prophet about how Voldemort's wicked child was to go to Hogwarts with the boy who lived , so ,now the whole school knows that this girl was actually Voldemort child .
After dinner was served the students were to follow the prefects into their dorms , Calista was so happy she didn't even care about the way students were whispering and looking at her , she realized that Harry and Ron were avoiding her , but she respected that , she knew she could never make friends here , and wasn't exactly unusual was it ? the Malfoys made sure she never had friends or someone to lean on but at least she was here away from them , well not exactly away since Draco was here too , but still better than being their slave and Draco's punching bag .
