Hey! No, I'm not dead, I've just been busy. Several versions of this chapter have actually been sitting in my room for 2 weeks, but now I've finally decided on one, let me know what you think-


"Theodore, Lupin," The sound of his name made Teddy start out of his daze. With trembling legs, he slowly made his way up to the hat, his father's nad Harry's assurances ringing in his ears.

As soon as the hat slipped over his eyes, a voice filled his head.

"A Lupin he?

It's been awhile since I've sorted a Lupin.

But I remember your father alright many years back!

He had the brain of a Ravenclaw , but he insisted that he could learn to fight better in Gryffindor.

And your mom! The fiery young miss Tonks, spunky little girl, a bit loud for Hufflepuff, but a true friend through and through.

But where are you destined for?

A fine mind,but too mischievous for Ravenclaw,

Far too noble for Slytherin,

Kind, and patient yes, but the fighting spirit of a true

Gryffindor!"

Teddy sighed in relief and hurried over to his house.

Hogwarts had had more and more international students and enrollment had nearly doubled. That year, 17 new students joined Gryffindor, 9 boys and 8 girls. Later that evening Teddy learned all of their names and a little about each of them-
