Now because Harry was with Hagrid and Hagrid taught a class called The Care of Magical Creatures Harry arrived at the school two weeks earlier than the students so Hagrid could plan his classes. There he met Dumbledore again and he found out about the sorting and the houses you get put in. The houses were a mean to put them with people who fit them best. The houses were Slytherin, which was about being cunning and had the colors of green and silver and had the symbol of a snake. There was Ravenclaw which is about being smart and they have the colors of blue and bronze with the eagle as house next is Gryffindor which is about braver with the colors of red and gold and with a lion as their symbol. The last is Hufflepuff who was about loyalty with the colors yellow and black and a badger as their symbol. He met all the ghosts to that each house has Slytherins is the Bloody Baron, Gryffindor is Nearly Headless Nick, Hufflepuff is Fat Friar, and Ravenclaw is Grey Lady. At the school he met all the teachers. He met the man Named Severus Snape, who he found out was head of Slytherin,and talked to him at first he seemed scary and mean but Harry being as smart as he is figured out that it was just a cover. They told Severus about the guardianship. Severus looked so surprised and when Harry asked later when they were alone after setting up rooms near Severus's rooms, he found out about the hatred that Severus had for his father and godfathers and why. He found out they bullied Severus really bad while in school.

Harry's rooms weren't far from Severus's for safety reasons. They told him this would be where he would be staying even when school started even though each house had their own dorms. He would stay here because he of the abuse had left a lot of trauma. It had left him with nightmares that would make him wake up screaming and would also stay here because of his special pet could be dangerous because of some of the roomates could accidently step on him or a game could be seen as a threat. They also did it so Harry could be able to get to Severus or his nurse/therapist who they would meet soon. The rooms were all the house colors. They were originally just Slytherin colors but Harry who had a control of his magic changed it to fit him.

Severus found out about Harry's ability to speak to snakes when he went out to give Harry time to set in and when he came in Harry was going through his trunk finding clothes because Harry wanted to shower and change before dinner. Aamin was coming up behind Harry because he had been on the bed. When Severus saw this he quickly took out his wand and told Harry not to move. So of course Harry freaked and turned around and saw what Severus was pointing his wand at and yelled out not to harm him. He walked over and picked him up and apologized about not telling him Aamin then explained to Severus about him being his and how he could speak to them. Severus was so surprised because he knew Tom a.k.a Voldemort could talk to snakes to. Harry, while Aamin was wrapped his neck and while putting his setting up his tank, explained to him that Aamin wouldn't attack unless Harry was threatened. Severus told him that if he was to keep him at the school and wanted to leave the room with him they would need to become familiars and would need to give him some of his venom to create a anti-venom for such cases. So they did then Severus helped them bond. They could now talk to each other through a mind link.

After they dealt with the snake issues they met Harry nurse/therapist her name was Tanya she was young looking but you could tell she had been doing this for a while her room was next to Harry's. She told him he could come whenever he needed her or to go to Severus if he felt more comfortable talking to him but encouraged him to come to both of them for help or just to talk.

He asked Severus to see if he could be sorted early because he didn't want to deal with people staring at him. They asked Dumbedore and he agreed. They put the sorting hat on him and the out spent a while contemplating it and finally decided on Slytherin because even though he fit into every house it fit the way he masked his emotions and could talk to snakes. So when school started he sat when the other years.
