Hey everyone! Sorry for the delay in writing!
Having some issues with my mouse... is not appearing on my screen so I have to relay on the touch screen which makes the process longer than it should be!
Ok I have read the reviews and I still haven't made up my mind fully on a pairing, but I eventually will. I wanna also thank those that have reviewed!
As a side note the only way to make things work is to tweak the hp time line so bare with me on it... its how i want this story to go. And on with it!
Chapter 8: Sorting
The hallways of Hogwart's were filled with the chatter of students as they eagerly awaited to be introduced to the rest of the year's, small cluster of groups talking to each other about which house they were going to be sorted into and which ones they did not want any part of. And out of the sea of first year's Kagome stuck out like a sore thumb being taller than all the prepubescent kids and more filled out than the other females who kept giving her snide looks before looking away. Back pressing against the stone of the staircase she smiled fondly as her brother began to make friends with the other and talked about sports and things boy's had in common. Maybe this would be good for the boy after all! The doors to the great hall opened up and the older woman whom had greeted everyone after they got off of the boats was known as Professor Mcgonagall with her stereotypical witches hat adorn with a feather that jutted out into the air. Her stern gaze and no nonsense attitude reminded the girl fondly of the older priestess back in the past, she lead the students in to the room as they all looked upon the area in awe. Candles floating in air and the ceiling shifting to reveal the moon and a thousands upon thousands of stars, it had her breath stopping in her throat at the clarity of it all.
Stopping just into the great hall, allowing all the first years to be selected and sorted before herself. After all her position was a bit of a special one and it had been agreed on by the professor and herself that the first year's deserved their time to shine. Blue eye's gazed at the head table moving over the teacher's that resided their, a crash course in who and what they taught had been given to her by a book her mother seemed to conjure out of thin air. Blue eyes danced on all of them, taking in how much they seemed to care about the ceremony or the one's that talked among themselves. A set of cold black eyes caught her gaze for a brief moment holding on to it before boredom moved on to the others, his aura was dark and tainted like that of the demons but under it all, there was something...something light that fought hard against all that taint.
"Souta Higurashi"
Attention snapped to the boy as he nervously walked up to the stool and climbed onto it, had her day dreaming really been that bad that they were already to her brother? The hat slowly came down upon the boy's head and a hush fell over the room.
"SLYTHERIN"
It shouted out and the table to her left erupted in cheer as they gathered a new member, Souta smiled broadly before he scooted down and over to the table joining a group of males he had been talking with earlier in the day. More students came and went with the shouts of house's each one eagerly accepting those that were sorted to them, one by one they all went till there was only her left. The elderly headmaster stood up and rose a hand, hushing the students in their giddy chatter once more. "As I said before this year is a special year. We have one more student to be sorted into her house and join the sixth years I assume which ever house she falls into you will help her in her studies and such. Kagome Higurashi" He called out and the girl pushed off of the wall and walked up to the stool. Her eyes locked on to that of the headmaster a friendly smile placed on her lips as she walked with confidence. Taking a seat she faced the sea of faces as they whispered about the girl and why she was in a sixth year class, who she was and all the things to get rumors started. The hat was placed on her head and instantly she could hear a voice rattling around inside of her head, goosebumbs rose upon her skin as she squashed the power rising in her chest.
"Interesting, very interesting indeed. You my dear have lived a life of adventure already...strong and independent with a caring side...loyal to the fault of stupidity...powerful and cunning. You are your father's daughter aren't you my dear, but you don't have him in your life...strange indeed. Your brother was ease to sort he will blossom in the house of Slytherin and become his own person and not live in the shadow of the Shikon-no-miko." The voice taunted the female and she could feel the anger starting to well up in her chest like an angry fist. "I see you have your mothers temper as well. No matter, you will excel in any house so I choose "
"GRYFFINDOR"
