Chapter 1

The red Hogwarts station was like always beaming with people. Parents bustling through the crowds to say one last goodbye. Siblings wondering when they will arrive at Hogwarts. All in all it was a place where wizards of great power start their journey. All this was false to a young boy sitting in one of the compartments. They boy had no parents to say goodbye nor had any siblings. His abusive relatives not cared as they treated him like slaves. The under malnourished child with huge glasses was quiet as he read the books assigned to him for the year. The train started to run as well parents saying their final goodbyes.

Sometime later, a compartment slid open to reveal a boy, significantly taller than him. They boy had red hair, a worn down trunk which was radiating low amount of energy and carried what was supposed to be huge flies around his hair. All in all they boy looked quite dirty. "Can I sit here, all the places are full?" Harry nodded and merely accepted the presence of the boy. "Thanks, I am Ron Weasley by the way. And you are?" "Harry, Harry Potter." The boy was surprised and started to talk about how great his parents were and how they were going to be best friends and all that.

The rest of the ride served annoying. They boy just rambled on and on about how great he was. When the train halted, a hoot resounded giving them the sign to leave. Getting the trunk out with a simple levitating charm which he studied, he floated the trunk till he left the carriages. Hoping to get as far away from the boy known as Ron, Harry swiftly walked to the front of the line where Hagrid, a half giant stood there with lanterns. "firs' years with me. Leave your stuff outside. Firs' years with me. Hagrid shouted until all the students gathered up. Hagrid led them to a place where huge masses of boats where floating. "n'more then four." Hagrid shouted ferociously. Hoping to get away, Harry jumped on a boat where there were only three people. The blonde boy and two kids the build of body builders (Harry assumed they were friends) sat. The other three talked while Harry wondered how the sorting would be. Harry looked back and noticed that Ron was flabbergasted to know that Harry would rather sit with someone else then him.

They arrived at the doors which the students were whispering as the Entrance hall. A stern looking women came by who Harry reminded himself to not cross paths with. The women introduced herself as Minerva Mcgonnagal. She introduced many things suchouse points, the houses and many more. They entered the great hall where many students were sitting and talking.

Apparently the sorting would be decided by a magic a hat which could look into your hat and discover all your thoughts. Hard as it may, Harry still had to be sorted.

"Potter, Harry" Minerva loudly said and the great hall broke into whispers and at the same time was dead silent. Harry, who was nervous from all the attention he was getting, stumbled a bit before letting it place on his head.

"hmm, you are a hard one." A voice spoke, "Huge Magical core, curious about the ways how magic works. Ravenclaw would be happy to have someone like you. Having a sense of loyalty, Hufflepuff would surely jump for your antics. But then again, you have a great sense of bravery and courage, Gryffindor would make great use of you. But then having a great thirst for approval, ambition and abilities one would think you truly are a descendent of Slytherin. So Mister Potter, where to put?" "Slytherin, please Slytherin. They seem like the guys who would approve me in any ways." "Then it better be-"

"SLYTHERIN" the hat roared to the once quiet great hall. However instead of whispering, the great hall seemed to have been shocked. They were all thinking just one thing, How the hell is a Potter in Slytherin?
