Chapter 2: Arival at Hogwarts




As the train came to a hault in front of Hogwarts station, the students walked off.

As Harry, Ron, and Hermione got off they saw Hagrid, a tall half giant, beconing for the first years." All firs' years o'er 'ear!" he called out. Hagris turned around and saw the trio," 'ey 'arry. Really gunna miss ya next year."

Harry smiled as Hagrid led the first years to their boats so they could journey across the lake, meet Profesor McGonagal, and be sorted.

Harry, Ron ,and Hermione made their way over to the driverless caridges. They hopped in the third one and shut the door.

They rode in silence all the way up to the castle.

The trio got out of the caridge once they reached the tower of stairs looming looming down on them. They walked up the stairsand headed to the Great Hall for the sorting.

As they entered the Great Hall it was buzzing with excitement. Harry and Ron sat down at the Gryfandor table, but Hermione kept walking.

"Hey 'Mione! Where are you going?" Ron asked woth the same puzzled look on his face as Harry.

Hermioned turned around,smiled ,and replied,"I have to sit up with the staff this year since I'm Head Girl. It's a new rule."she turned back around and walked up to the staff tabled and took a seat next to the new DADA teacher Professor Vivian Colins. She was a petite woman with with long brownish gold hair all the way down to her lower back. She wore dark blue robes. Professor Colins smiled politely at Hermione and then turned to talk to Professor Flitwick.

Hermion was in a daze, but then she saw Draco, Crabbe, and Goyle come into the Hall.They walked to the Slytherin table where Crabbe and Goyle sat down, but as Draco kept walking, the two morons said something to him.

'They must be asking him the same thing that Ron and Harry asked me.'Hermione thought.

As Draco made his way up to the staff table, Hermione could have sworn that she saw him smile at her, but she shook it off. Draco took a seat next to Professor Snape, who was the head od the Slytherin House. Draco and Snape were soon in a quiet discussion, but Hermione did happen to hear the word "Mudblood" once or twice in the conversation.

After a few minute, Professor McGonagal, the head of the Gryfandor House, came in with the first years.

Professor McGonagal walked up on stage, grabbed a stool and the old battered Sorting Hat. When she sat the hat on the stool it began to sing. When it was done with its song, the whole room filled with applause.

When the noise settled down, the professor said,"When I call your name,please come up to the stool to be sorted.

"Albet, Rinea."

A blonde head girl with pigtails walked up to the stool, sat down and placed the sorting hat on her head(but it slid down because it was to big). After a few seconds the hat screamed "HUFFLEPUFF!"

The whole hufflepuff table bursted out n applause as she made her way to the table.

After a few minutes of calling out names(Brimus, Stephen (Ravenclaw); Calroy, Vincent (Slitherinn); Dei, Venus (Gryfandor); Eli, Cindy (Hufflepuff);and Famc, Drew (Slytherin) ) came name that no one expected.

"Granger, Hope."

A girl with dark brown hair up in a high ponytail and dark blue eyes walked up to the stool. Draco looked over at Hermione and saw she had a smile on her face.

As Hope sat down on the stool, she heard a voice in her head.

" Aah, another Granger," it started," Where shall I put you? YOu've all the qualities of every house, just like your sister. You are also very intaligent as well. I think you'll do best in-"

"GRYFANDOR!!" the hat shouted out for every one to hear.

The Gryfandor table burst in to applause and Hope made her way over to sit next to Venus Dei.

Hermione hade a huge smile on her face and was definately the loudest.

Once the sorting was over, Headmaster Dumbledore stood up. The whole room hushed and waited for him to begin his speach."Good Evening," he started," this is the start of another, and for some, first year. I want to remind every one that you will get detention and points taken off your house if you are caught out after lights out," he said looking at Harry and Ron,"Also the Forbiden Forest is, well, forbiden.I would also like to introduce you to the new Head Girl and Boy. Ms.Granger, Mr.Malfoy, please stand up." they did," If you need any help, feel free to ask them." with that they sat back down."With that done, LETS EAT!" as he finished the food apeared on the tables.

'This is definately going to be a good year," thought Hermione,' I can sense it.' Unknown to her that Draco was thinking the same thing.
