A/N: This is going well, Sasha was lecturing me, and pointing out my every
mistake...STEPSISTERS! Rah! Of course, this is Mortania speaking, and not
I. Please R&R.PLEEAAASSSEEE!!!! Aright! And I am not going to go into
extreme detail of the sorting.....takes too long, but hey! I'll try!
Disclaimer: I own all unfamiliar characters, and all of the normal ones' belong to JK Rowling.....which whom, is pregnant, so congrats...to her....Okay then, so I think I am all good! SO, as my English teacher said last year, "On with the story already."

After the students had all arrived at the platforms the older kids had gathered together. Yet again, the burly man that had sorted the others years before stood there holding the lantern.
"Firs' years over here. All firs' years'!" All the new faces looked at him. Mortania recognized one of them. Sasha smiled as Devon approached her.
"Well, what a pleasant surprise, Devon, what is that you're holding?" Sasha was leaning back and forth looking at the black box Devon held.
"Gee, Sasha, I wanted to surprise you, but you are just too hard to surprise." He held the box out and grinned. Sasha held the box in her hand then opened it. There in front of her was a silver ring with a serpent on it. She smiled. Then threw her arms around Devon and embraced him in a hug.
"Thank you Devon." He smiled then looked at Draco. Mortania smiled and laughed at what Devon said to Draco.
'Top that Draco! I got a hug!' Draco rolled his eyes.
"Don't worry, love, I got you something, you'll see when we get in there. Although the people with rats may not appreciate it." He smirked. Mortania gave him a kiss. Devon frowned.
"Well, I don't really care about this mushy stuff, but I am getting in that carriage, Sheridan are you coming?" Malissa looked at the red haired girl. She nodded.

As all the 2nd year through 7th years filed into the castle teachers were watching them, to make sure that no students made a mad dash to the forest, not that any of them would be that stupid to do anything like that. Especially with the Dark Lords threats and killings over the summer. He was getting powerful, and he killed five muggles, and three wizarding families. The families that were killed were from Gryffindor, Ravenclaw, and Hufflepuff. The kids were gone. A few dismal faces were in the Great Hall and going in, because the kids were gone. However, the Slytherins walked in looking triumphant, they hadn't been harmed, nor had their families been killed. McGonagall was biting her lip, she hadn't took notice in who wasn't going to be joining the Gryffindor table, until she saw her students. Sprout was frowning. Her eyes were a little watery. But there was only two kids that were missing from her table. Flitwick was looking a bit disturbed. One of the students that were killed was his Prefect, and another was Head Girl, both of the same family. Snape however, had the usual sour expression on his face. None of his students were harmed, and he hoped to keep it that way. He did know, which parents were involved in the attacks. One being the honourable Lucius Malfoy, gone back to the inner ring, again.
As all the students looked over at the new face which wasn't really that new after-all. The returning Defense Against Dark Arts Professor was Remus Lupin, returning yet again, for a few months. There, sitting next to his right side was a big black dog. Hermione Granger noticed this and hit Harry in the arm. He screamed.
"'Mione! What was that...." he stopped and looked at the D.A.D.A. Professor and what was at his side. "Blimey, is that?"
Hermione turned and smiled. "I think it is. Let's go ask."
Just then Ron came up and then followed. He shrugged when they started walking away again. Following his friends he spotted where they were going. As they approached the D.A.D.A Professor he drew a smile.
Hermione was first to speak. "Welcome back Professor Lupin." She flashed a huge smile. "How have you been doing? It's been a while."
"I am quite fine, Hermione. You have grown, and so has Ron. You are starting to become a very beautiful woman." Lupin paused then looked at Harry, "Well, Harry, is that you?"
"Yes, it is. And I am not commenting on why I look like this, all I know, is it started around my birthday. And I don't have to wear my glasses anymore. Because I can see everything perfect."
Lupin smiled. "Glad to see that your sights been improved. Oh, excuse me for not introducing you to my pet. I got him this summer. A very good trade if you ask me. I got him, for three vials of aging potion for a wizard. A rather great trade...although, this fellow wanted to go with me, so the old man just said he'd go on and give me the dog. He was causing havoc everywhere. I was rather happy and we took to each other rather well."
Ron looked at the dog then to Lupin. "Is his name by any chance what I think it is?"
Lupin smiled ever so slyly and then nodded. "Well, Mr. Weasley, what do you think his name is?"
