Harry Potter no5-part 3

(A/N: Happy??? I've finally changed the font…anyways…plz r&r. I'm at the part where Vicky gets sorted into Slytherin.)

Harry, Ron and Hermione stared in shock, as the Slytherin table erupted into cheers, with the boys clapping exceptionally loudly. Vicky took off the hat, and gazing at the three of them unhappilly, got up slowly and made her way to the Slytherin table. Ron was in shock. He opened and closed his mouth wordlessly. Hermione glanced around at him concernedly. "You feeling alright, Ron?" asked Harry, distracting Ron, who was now staring at Vicky. "Uh…nothing," said Ron, looking away. Harry saw that he had a disgusted look on his face before turning around to face them. "That was a shock wasn't it?" asked Hermione. "Yeah, at least now we know that we shouldn't be too friendly with Vicky," replied Ron. An indignant look came over Hermione's face. She opened her mouth to say something but was interrupted by Dumbledore. "Well, as usual, I have two words to say to you, which are 'Tuck In'," he said loudly before sitting down. Ron turned to the table with a look of ecstasy on his face as golden plates, goblets of pumpkin juice and trays of food appeared on the table. Harry and Ron were soon tucking in. Hermione, Harry noticed was picking at her food. "Whash the ma''er 'Ermione?" said Ron with great difficulty (he was in the middle of swallowing an enormous chicken drumstick). "Slave labour," murmured Hermione, glaring at Ron. "OH…" said Ron, obviously not wanting to get involved in that topic again. "Hey, look at the Teacher's table…who's gonna be our Defence against Dark Arts Teacher, eh?" said Harry. He saw Professor Mcgonagoll talking to Professor Dumbledore, looking her prim usual self. Greasy-haired Professor Snape was staring mutinously ahead of him. Seeing this, Ron immediately turned and pretended to try and find out what he was staring at. "Very funny, Ron," said Hermione, sarcastically, giving Ron a look. Harry ignored them and looked at the Teacher's Table again. He saw Professor Sinistra talking enthusiastically to Hagrid. Seeing who was sitting next to Professor Sinistra, Harry nudged Ron and Hermione (who had started bickering) and muttered, "Who's that, over there?" Both of them turned and Ron started and said hoarsely, "How can a teacher be so beautiful?"

For, indeed, the teacher was unexplainably beautiful. She had an oval-shaped face, blonde hair and turqoiuse-blue eyes. She was wearing robes of a deep blue and was talking to Professor Sprout. "She is rather pretty…she must be our new Defence Against the Dark Arts Teacher then," said Hermione in a hushed voice. After some time of staring, they turned away and started talking to the others and Sir Nicholas De-Mimsy Porpington (Gryffindor Ghost). In a suprisingly short time, all the plates were cleared. All too soon (or so it seemed to Harry), the goblets and golden plates disappeared, together with the leftover food and stains on the tablecloths. Professor Dumbledore stood up. "Welcome everybody, to another fabulous year at Hogwarts! I have a few announcements. Firstly, we have a new addition to the teaching staff, our new Defense Against Dark Arts teacher, Professor Zeecrow!" he said. A round of applause (especially boys) echoed the hall, as Professor Zeecrow stood up. As she sat down Dumbledore started speaking again.

"Secondly, I am very happy to inform you that Quidditch Matches are on again. Except that this time, after the winning of the Quidditch Cup, the best players from each house will be selected based on their playing, regardless whether they came in last or not. Three other students from the winning Quidditch Team will also be chosen. These students will then compete against Beauxbaton's Quidditch Team. I am sure you know Beauxbatons Wizarding School. For those who don't, its name suggests that it is a Wizarding School. This is a great honour for the people who are chosen. However, I do not, I repeat, I do not want anyone to fell jealous of people who have been chosen and resort to desperate measures to take their place," said Dumbledore, his eyes twinkling, pausing. He looked around the hall once. Then he continued.

"Thirdly, I am reminded by Mr. Argus Filch to remind you not to use magic in the corridors," Dumbledore said in a lighter tone. Muffled laughter came from the Weasley twins. "Fourthly, I have a few more words to say to you, Have a Good Night," Professor Dumbledore finished, sitting down and engaging himself in a talk with Professor McGonagoll.

Everyone got up and moved towards the two Great Oak Doors. Suddenly, they burst open and a man, probably in his late fifties, came rushing in. He ran up to Dumbledore and started to whisper to him. People started to stare, as Professor Snape took charge of the situation. "Come on! Get moving you lot. Potter, Weasley, Granger, I believe you're holding up people…let's see, ten points from Gryffindor," Snape paused to say in a silky voice before going up front to ask people to proceed. "What's the matter with HIM?! Like, there isn't anyone behind us!" Harry muttered through clenched teeth. Ron nodded, glaring at Snape's retreating back. "Forget it, you two…" trailed off Hermione, as they caught sight of Draco Malfoy. He was talking to somebody who they could not see until Crabbe moved. Ron gasped. It was Vicky! Hermione took one look at them and said, "Vicky told me in the train that she thought that Malfoy was cute. Plus, Malfoy DID go out when we asked him to. Maybe they like each other!" she declared. Ron stared at her for a long time. "You're mad!" he finally said. "Malfoy does NOT have any feelings anyway…" They spent the rest of the time squabbling until they reached the Painting of the Fat Lady. "What's the password, Hermione? You should know, you're a prefect," said Ron. "It's 'Thingamajig'," she said. The portrait opened and the three of them clambered in, only to be ambushed by Colin Creevy, Dennis Creevy and another small boy, who Harry presumed was Colin's brother. They started fawning all over him. Harry finally had enough when Ron started to snigger and Hermione plainly started to hold back giggles.

"Look, Colin…I gotta go and sleep…and NO MORE signed autographs!" he said, pushing his way through with Ron and Hermione, who were still trying not to laugh. He glared at them until they finally emerged with their faces straight. "Well…see you in the morning guys, G'night," said Hermione, going up the staircase to her dormitory. They turned and went up the stairs, heading towards their dormitory. They pushed open the door labelled 'Fifth Years', and went inside to find Dean, Seamus and Neville unpacking and getting ready for bed. Ron and Harry dumped their trunks next to their beds and changed into their pyjamas. "G'night Ron," said Harry plopping down on his bed. A muffled sound came as an answer from Ron's bed. Harry took that as an answer and lay down. Just then, all the tiredness started to kick in. He went off to sleep.

Harry was walking in the Forbidden Forest. He brushed his hair out of his eyes for what seemed like the millionth time. Just then, he reached a big clearing. He saw a group of huddled figures listening to someone talking. He could not hear what they were saying and he edged closer and closer to hear. Suddenly, one big figure moved and he saw—

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Harry awoke to someone shaking his shoulder like crazy. He gave a groan and looked up into the bemused eyes of Ron. "Ron! You just interrupted my dream! I was gonna see who was speaking!" he exclaimed. "What's that? I only woke you up 'cause it's almost breakfast now," Ron replied, getting distracted from what Harry was talking about at once. "Oh, well thanks," said Harry as he got up grudgingly and went to get ready.

Ron accompanied him to the Great Hall. Harry pointed to the Slytherin table and said, "Look at Malfoy and Vicky. I think love's in the air for them…" "Yeah, right…Harry, sometimes I think you should stay away from Hermione…you're turning out just like her," Ron said back to him. There was silence for sometime. They reached the Gryffindor table and sat down because they could not see Hermione anywhere. "So, how's Cho?" asked Ron, breaking the silence as they started munching on their breakfast. "I dunno…," Harry replied, looking over to where Cho was, laughing with her friends. "You like her, don't you Harry?" asked Ron quietly. "Yep, I do…but I dunno whether I should ask her out…" Harry trailed off. Ron opened his mouth to answer but was interuptted by Professor Mcgonagoll. "Potter, Weasley, come with me," she said. Harry and Ron cast each other a questioning look and got up to follow her. Just then, the man they had seen bursting into the Great Hall yesterday rushed into the room. "Fletcher, what are you doing here?" asked Professor Mcgonagoll as he came running up to her. "Can't talk, urgent, got to see Professor Dumbledore right now…" the wizard trailed off looking wildly around. "But didn't you hear? Dumbledore does not want to talk to anyone right now…not with – him on the loose," said Professor Mcgonagoll casting a half look at Harry and Ron. The wizard made as if he did not hear her and kept looking all around the Great Hall. "Very well…Potter, Weasley, there is no need for you to come now…" said Professor Mcgonagoll leading the wizard away, leaving Harry and Ron looking at each other, dumbstruck.
