I once had a dream I owned Hogwarts. It's a shame dreams aren't real. Italics mean thoughts or telepathy
The rain poured around the platform as children ran to get shelter from it. Voices rang out as complaints about the rain or loss of luggage. A tall man with a long beard was shouting "First years this way. Over hear first years."
"I think there's a small chance that we need to go that way" joked Alaska
"Just go" Chris said with a smile pushing her towards the man.
"Follow me first years. Come on First years quickly keep up." The man said as he lead them to the boats "go on 8 in a boat." The first years lined up to get in the boats. Chris sat with Alaska, Hermione, Neville, the 2 boys from the train – Ron and Harry – and 2 other boys called Seamus Finnigan and Dean Thomas "Apparently the kids of one of the charmed ones are going to Hogwarts this year!" the Irish boy said. Chris visibly sank down in his seat as Ron and the Irish boy Seamus talked about him and Wyatt "Yeah I heard the youngest was a complete twat." Alaska said. Chris just gave her a look that said "I hate you" Alaska just stuck out her tough in reply.
"What's she done this time?"Wyatt's voice in his head asked him.
"Wyatt stop looking in my head."Chris replied
"Hey I'm just worried about you. Anyway what did she do?"Wyatt asked
"I did nothing honest." said Alaska
"Good God girl you have got to stop doing that."
"Well Wy now you know how it feels now I'm fine, Alaska's fine, your fine so let's just get on with this. Goodbye Wyatt." Chris said as he left the conversation.
"What's up with him?" Asked Wyatt concerned about his brother.
"He's worry about the sorting. You know how stressed he gets" Alaska replied as she glanced over at her best friend talking to the other people on the boat. Chris was good at hiding his feelings but he could never hide Alaska "Oh okay well I'll see you around Alaska. Good luck with Chris."
"Bye Wy. Ha that rhymes." And with that Alaska was forced to go back to the place where she hated the most. Reality.
...
"First years wait hear to be sorted. If you're new and need to be sorted line up buy the gray doors in alphabetical order by last name." Chris looked over at his brother and gave him a reassuring smile "Good luck Wy" Chris told him
"Right back at you little bro. And you Alaska." Alaska looked up and smiled. The 13 new students including Wyatt entered the hall and the first years where left to wonder what they would have to face in the main hall. She hard Ron say "My brother said we had to fight a troll" Chris looked sceptical and said "I don't think that will be it considering trolls are VERY rare." Everyone from magical families looked at Chris strangely "What they are in America at least" he said defending himself "Well I read that the sorting ceremony evolves a magic hat." Said Hermione. Alaska couldn't help but fells sorry for the girl. She was trying so hard but most people obviously found her very annoying. "That sounds cool" she said smiling at the frizzy haired girl.
"First years please enter the hall and line up in alphabetical order." The Scottish teacher said as the 11 year olds got in to a line in front of an old stool with a tatty hat. Looked around the tables of teenagers until he spotted his brother next to the 2 ginger boys he was talking to earlier. His brothers table was decorated gold with lions. Chris didn't mind the decoration but he liked the green table better. He always did like green mainly because it matched his eyes. Chris thought about the colour of the tables until his name was called out because trivial things helped him calm down so he didn't have to think about the list of names slowly counting down to his he watched as the list slowly approached him name by name. Goyle, Granger and then finally Halliwell. Chris's legs felt like lead as he made his way up to the stool. Chris heard people whisper. They knew he was a Halliwell, a son of a charmed one, the controller Excalibur and he was at Hogwarts. Chris sat on the stool and the hat was placed on his head
"So you are the second son of the second charmed one." The hat said into his ear "Now where to put you. You definitely have the brains of a Ravenclaw. And the cunning of a Slytherin. You are brave enough to put your life in danger to fight demons everyday and you are loyal to your brother so much you go back to the past to save him"
"What!"Chris asked "I never did that. Wyatt never needed saving"
"Interesting. Well it better be..."
"Wait. No, what are you talking about when did I save Wyatt?"
"Gryffindor" The hat bellowed ignoring Chris's questions. Everyone on the red and gold lion table stood up and cheered. Chris stood up and slowly walked towards them. The things the hat had said where still heavy on his mind. He sat down next to Hermione near Wyatt and was so deep in thought he didn't realise that his best friend was sitting next to him. "Earth to Chris" she said "Hello what's wrong? Is being in the same house as me that bad?" she asked
"Yes" Chris replied as a joke then he gave her a friendly hug.
So that's the second chapter of Halliwells at Hogwarts hope you liked it. If you review you will get... nothing but it will make me very happy so please do and also as I said last chapter criticism is good as long as it's constructive. It's 2am I should probably get some sleep now.
