The Sorting
McGonagall left the group then came carrying a three-legged stool and an old battered hat. She placed the stool down in front of the group of first years and placed the hat on top. McGonagall backed away and slit near the brim of the hat appeared. It opened up wider and began to speak.
"You may be shocked and surprised to see, A talking hat as clever as me. Although I am old, you may agree, I will decide where you ought to be. In Gryffindor you may belong, If you are brave, courageous, and strong. A Ravenclaw that you may be, If you are witty and as smart as thee. It might be Hufflepuff that you will stay, For those determined and that do obey. Slytherin may be in your future still, For those shrewd and those who will fulfill. Do not be scared. Don't be afraid. Once the house is called my mind will be made. The house I call is where you do belong Do not doubt for I have never been wrong." There was a thunder of applause. Then McGonagall stepped up beside the hat with a roll of parchment in her hands, "Now when I call your name you will step up here, sit on the stool, and put the hat on your head. Once the hat calls out your house, you will then get up and sit at your house's table. Arley, Kali." A tall girl with shoulder length black hair walked up to the stool, sat down and placed the hat on her head. The hat only took a quick minute to decide. "SLYTHERIN!" They hat cried out as the Slytherin table cheered and Kali sat down. "Avalon, Devlin" A medium sized boy with dark brown hair stepped forward and put on the sorting hat. "GRYFFINDOR" The hat shouted as Devlin walked towards the loud cheering of the Gryffindor table. "Brakeman, Holden" A small boy with spiky blonde hair walked up to the stool. "HUFFLEPUFF!" The hat called out and there was a loud roar as Holden sat down at the Hufflepuff table. Brooker, Griffin became the first Ravenclaw, while Cauldwell, Connor became another Hufflepuff. The sorting continued. Finch-Fletchley, Abbigale became a Hufflepuff. Jordan, Simba became another Gryffindor, while Johnston, Guinevere became a Ravenclaw. One kid went into Ravenclaw while two other kids went into Hufflepuff. Finally it came to Adwen. She became a Gryffindor. Macmillan, Charlie was then called up. A tall girl with short blonde hair walked up to the sorting hat. She became a Hufflepuff. Malfoy, Jessica became a Slytherin. Miller, Sebastian became another Gryffindor while another two kids were sorted into Slytherin, and two were added to Ravenclaw. "O'Neil, Rhea" McGonnagal called out as Rhea sat on the stool and placed the hat on her head. "Hmm." The hat said. "Plenty of intelligence, very good wit. Oh very brave and courageous. I know where to put you. GRYFFINDOR!" the hat called out as Rhea jumped out of her seat, took the hat off, and sat with the cheering table of Gryffindors.
Right after Rhea, O'Flannery, Dallas was called up. He became a Ravenclaw. Right after him Lilly was called up. The hat called out Gryffindor. Three more kids were added to Slytherin, four to Hufflepuff, and two to Ravenclaw. Star, Mackenzie became a Gryffindor, Stewart, Noah became a Ravenclaw, Taggart, Hope became another Ravenclaw, and Thompson, Takara became a Slytherin. Elijah was called up, then Kiran, and by the time Luka was called up the hat said "Too many Weasleys. Well I know exactly where to put you. GRYFFINDOR!" All three of them became Gryffindors. Professor Dumbledore got up from his seat once Luka was sitting at the Gryffindor table. Dumbledore smiled with a twinkle in his eyes.
