Chapter 2: Harry
Harry followed all the second to seventh year students to the Great Hall, where the sorting took place, thinking all the while about the pretty girl he had met on the train. Who exactly was she? And why hadn't she gone to any magical schools before? Just then Harry, Hermione, and Ron reached the Great Hall and there, to the surprise of many, Sky sat beside Dumbledore at the head table! She looked slightly shaken and pale for some reason but as soon as she turned her head and spotted the three Gryffindor's she brightened considerably and flashed a smile in their direction.
"I wonder if she's going to be sorted into a house, or attend classes?" Harry wondered out loud.
"Well I hope she does!" Declared Hermione, "I would like to talk to her again I think she's really nice."
"Yeah me to" agreed Ron, who nowadays agreed with Hermione over anything! (hint hint!)
"I think Harry's taken quite a shine to her," Ron whispered to Hermione, "Look at him!" Ron was right, Harry was gazing at Sky, who was talking to Dumbledore, in fact he was looking so hard at her that he went to sit down at the Gryffindore table and missed his chair! Harry quickly jumped up and looked around but, fortunately, nobody noticed as they were all to interested in who this stranger sitting at the Head table was. Dumbledore then stood up and the Great Hall became quite as he began to talk.
"Welcome to another year at Hogwarts!" Dumbledore cheerily greeted, "I know your all wondering who is sitting beside me and I will now introduce her." "This is my granddaughter Sky." Dumbledore waited for the gasps and whispering to stop. "She will be staying here for quite awhile so I would like to sort her into a house so she may stay with others her age." "I'm going to sort her before the first years." Professor Mcgonnall came out with the sorting hat and placed it on the stool in the middle of the room. Everyone looked at the hat as its flaps opened and it started to sing.
Hello again, hello again,
I'm the sorting hat! I will chose what house you go to.
By looking inside your mind,
You cannot argue with me, please do not sue!
You may be put in Gryffindor,
Where go those strong and brave.
Or perhaps you'll go to Hufflepuff,
Where dwell those loyal and true.
Maybe you'll be in Ravenclaw,
The smart and the wise live there.
And lastly you may be in Slytherin
But you must be cunning and quick.
So step right up, and put me on!
I'll get a good look at your insides,
And send you to where you belong.
And so that is my song!
The sorting hat then bowed to the four houses and then became still, waiting for the children to put it on. Sky then rose from her chair, blue eyes twinkling, and made her way to the sorting hat. Everyone was silent but they all prayed that the pretty girl would be put into their house. A relative of Dumbledore just had to be great! Sky had just reached the stool, she sat down and put the hat on her head. As soon as it touched her head the hat screamed out, GRYFFINDOR! The Gyffindor house broke out in cheers while the rest of the tables just looked disappointed. Sky walked over to Harry and sat in the empty seat beside him with a happy grin on her face.
"Hi again! I'm really glad I'm in your house." Sky said joyfully, "I would really like us to be friends!"
"Yeah me to!" Hermione agreed, as Ron and Harry nodded their heads. Harry was surprised at how calm he was acting, because inside he was rejoicing! Just then Dumbledore spoke again.
"Harry Potter, Draco Malfoy, Ginny Weasley, and Sky I have something important to tell you. Please come with me." He announced. Sky seemed to know what was happening but everyone else just shot each other looks of confusion. But they knew they would find out soon enough!
