Chapter 2 – Warning
As soon as everybody sat on their respective tables in the Great Hall, Professor Dumbledore stood on the podium.
"It's another year back here at Hogwarts! And more than delightful to see you all here. First of all, we'll be expecting first years to enter and be sorted. And after that, the sorting ceremony will not yet end, for we have 2 transferees from France and Bulgaria. And our head boy and head girl for this year, Ms. Granger and Mr. Malfoy, Stay behind so I can show you your dormitory. Now, let's wait for the Professor McGonagall and the First years." Dumbledore said and returned to his seat.
After a minute, Professor McGonagall entered with the first years, and as always let them stand in front of the podium for them to be sorted.
30 minutes have passed and the sorting ceremony for the first years has ended. 3 went to Hufflepuff, 2 went to Ravenclaw, 6 went to Slytherin and 8 went to Gryffindor.
As what Dumbledore said, the sorting ceremony will not end, for there are transferees to be sorted as well. So Professor McGonagall started to announce.
"Now, the first years are done, I would like all of you to listen to me before I send in the 2 transferees. The transferees, as you have heard, are from France and Bulgaria. The point is that, they are both dangerous." At the word 'dangerous', everyone started murmuring. "Silence!" McGonagall shouted and the murmurs have died down. "I know that you're all wondering why I used the word 'dangerous' and that's why I want to explain. These 2 are people, that doesn't want to be mess with. They were trained by their parents to be strong and powerful. But, they don't use their power to meddle with people. The use it with their minds. So if I were all of you, I'll take the warning." And with that McGonagall send in the first one.
"The first transferee that I'm going to call is from Beauxbatons Academy of Magic. Please welcome, Ms. Isabelle Courtney Van der Sen." With that, Isabelle started walking through the great hall, with a tiny smile.
Everybody started looking at her. She was a girl of about 5 feet and 4 inches. She has soft curled hair that falls behind her mid-back, blonde with streaks of brown and black. She has rosy cheeks that partnered her not-so-pale skin. Her yellow eyes matched her.
Everybody started murmuring, then Ginny asked Hermione, "Do you think she's Veela?" Remembering Fleur de la Cour.
"I don't know." Hermione answered back.
As Isabelle sat on the chair, the sorting hat was placed on her head.
"I see. Very determined and seeker of power. A smart girl as well. Very broad mind. But most of all, the braveness of a lion is with you. You're quite difficult. Your mind doesn't say anything." The sorting hat said. Then after couple of minutes, "I just know where to put you now… GRYFFINDOR!"
With that, the Gryffindors welcomed Isabelle to their table. She sat beside Hermione and began talking to her.
"Let's talk later." Hermione said smiling at her.
"Okay. Now for our last transferee. He is from Durmstrang, so please welcome Xavier Knox." McGonagall said.
Then a tall guy entered the great hall. He has dark blue eyes and dark brown hair. He wore a very serious face. Then he got sorted.
"It all says in here, Slytherin!" The sorting hat said. The Slytherins welcomed their new companion.
Dumbledore stood up in front of the podium again.
"Now the sorting ceremony is finally finished. Just wanna state some rules. First years are not allowed in the Forbidden Forest and no one is to be out of their dormitories after curfew." He said. Then finally. "Let the feast begin!"
The food popped out in the middle of the table. The first years were amazed.
"This is magnifique! Never had like this in Beauxbatons" Isabelle then finally munching some treacle tarts.
After the feast, everyone joined their houses to get back to their dormitories except for Hermione and Draco.
Not noticing, Isabelle walked towards Hermione. "Let's just talk tomorrow during breakfast. See you!" Then without waiting for an answer she turned her back from Hermione and walked out of the great hall.
"Okay." Hermione muttered to herself.
Then Dumbledore called them to follow him to their dormitory.
Yeah. Chapter 2 done! Next up, chapter 3!
