Chapter 5 : The Sorting Ceremony.
The door swung opened and revealed a tall black haired witch in emerald-green robes. She had a stern face.
"The firs' years, Professor McGonagall," said Hagrid.
"Thank you Hagrid. I'll take them from here," said the black haired witch. She pulled the door wide open and motioned for the students to follow her. She walked through the hall and led the first years (plus Sakura and her group) into a small, empty chamber off the hall.
" Welcome to Hogwarts," said Professor McGonagall. "The star-of-term banquet will begin shortly, but before you take your seats in the Great Hall, you will be sorted into your houses. There are four houses altogether in Hogwarts: Gryffindor, Ravenclaw, Hufflepuff and Slytherin. Throughout your stay in Hogwarts, your houses will act as a family for you. Your triumphant will win you house points while any rule breaking will loss you house points. At the end of the year, the house with the most points will be awarded the House Cup. I do hope that all of you shall be of some credit to your house points."
"The Sorting Ceremony will begin very soon and I suggest that you smarten up yourselves while you are waiting." Her eyes lingered on someone's unfastened collar button and another's lopsided cloak.
"I will return when we are ready for you. Please wait quietly." Said Professor McGonagall, turning and leaving the room.
Mutters soon broke out after Professor McGonagall went out of the room.
"I heard that we have to change a rabbit into a stool if we are going to be sorted into our houses," said a girl to the right of Sakura.
"Hoeee!" said Sakura nervously.
"What happened Sakura?" asked Eriol.
"What do we have to do to be sorted into the houses?" asked Sakura.
"You just have to try on a hat." Said Eriol.
"Really?" asked Sakura.
"Yes!" said Eriol when they heard a scream. Sakura turn and yelled "HOEEEEEEEEEEEE!" Standing behind them were ghosts!
"It's alright Sakura!" said Eriol, trying to calm Sakura down. "They won't hurt you!"
"Really?" said Sakura, looking fearfully at the ghosts.
"Yes! There's only one ghost that can hurt you and that's Peeves but his not here so don't worry." Said Eriol.
"Hoeeee!" said Sakura. The door to the chamber opened just then and Professor McGonagall walked in. The ghosts quickly disappeared through the walls.
"Please form a line and follow me." Said Professor McGonagall. Just as Sakura and her friends were about to pass through the door, Professor McGonagall halted them.
"Please wait here! You will be sorted separately." She said. Sakura nodded dumbly and waited in the chamber with her friends. They continued bombarding Eriol on how they were sorted and which house was the best until Professor McGonagall came back for them and led them into the Great Hall.
"Now I will read out your name and you will put the hat on your head. It will shout out your house and then you will go join the people at your house." Said Professor McGonagall.
"Daidouji Tomoyo." She said aloud. Tomoyo stepped out and walked to the stool where she picked up the hat, sat it on her head and sat on the stool.
"Wow! Is she beautiful! I wonder if she has a boyfriend?" whispers were heard before the hat covered Tomoyo's ears.
"Hmm." said a voice in her head. "You are quite studious but also quite cunning. You are also quite brave too as you will follow the girl, Sakura, through her adventures in Card Capturing and have quite strong powers. Where should I put you? I know. GRYFFINDOR!" the word was shouted aloud. Tomoyo pulled the hat off and set it down on the stool before walking towards a table on the far left where the students were clapping enthusiastically.
"Hiiragizawa Eriol." Eriol walked calmly to the stool, attracting the eyes of many girls who sighed dreamily. He put the hat on his head and waited.
"Hmm.I seem to have seen you before," said a voice in his head.
"Hello Sorting Hat! You should know me!" thought Eriol, aware that the hat could see (or hear) what he had thought about.
"Hah! You are the reincarnation of Clow Reed aren't you? You are as powerful as before. Would you like to go back to your old house?" asked the hat. Eriol mentally confirmed and the hat shouted out " GRYFFINDOR!" Eriol calmly took of the hat, put it back on the stool and went to join Tomoyo.
"Kinomoto Sakura." Sakura gave a start when she her name being called and walked forward nervously, putting the hat on her head.
"Hah! You are the Card Mistress. You have strong powers, stronger than You- Know-Who and the possessor of the Clow Cards, now changed to Sakura/Star Cards." Said a voice near her ear.
"Ho.How did you know that?" asked Sakura, afraid. "You're not supposed to know that! Who are you?"
"Don't worry! I don't have any ill intent! I think you'd better go to.GRYFFINDOR." The word echoed around the Hall. Sakura plucked the hat down with trembling fingers and walked on wobbly legs to join Tomoyo and Eriol at the Gryffindor table.
"Sakura! Are you alright?" said Tomoyo in concern while Professor McGonagall called on Syaoran to place the hat on his head.
"It's nothing!" croaked out Sakura and she managed a smile as she turned to Syaoran who was wearing the hat.
"I don't believe you Sakura." Said Tomoyo. "Come on! Tell me truthfully! What just happened?"
"That hat knew that I had the Star Cards and is the Card Mistress." Whispered Sakura to Tomoyo. Eriol, who was near them, said "Of course it knows Sakura! I can look at what you are thinking!"
"Oh!" said Sakura, turning as Syaoran joined her at the Gryffindor table. Meilin was now wearing the hat.
"Don't worry Sakura! It doesn't have any ill intent." Said Eriol.
"GRYFFINDOR!" The word shocked Sakura out of her reverie and she turned and saw Meilin walked towards the Gryffindor table.
"This year we will be." said an old man who stood up form the middle of the teachers' table when he was cut off by a blinding blue light that shined from the left side of the Teacher's table.
From the light stepped out a girl wearing black robes trimmed with gold and sliver stars. There was a crest with the sun, moon and stars around a book at the left side of the robe. In the middle of the book was a picture of a golden phoenix in flight. She had fair complexion and her eyes were a curious purple which ranged from light (around the iris) to dark (merging with the pupils). Her hair was pulled back in a ponytail and tied with a heart-with-wings hair band.
"Ah! Princess Star! I trust you have brought the other exchange students?" greeted the old man.
"Yes! Professor Dumbledore." Said the girl, a group of around 30 or so students in blue, purple or black robes walked out of the blue light which disappeared after the last person had stepped out.
"As you can see," said Professor Dumbledore to the students in the Great Hall, "we are playing host to the exchange students from Global University of Witchcraft, Wizardry and Magery." Whispers broke out all over the Hall.
"Eriol! Isn't this the school that you told us the time we had the picnic?" asked Sakura in surprise.
"Yes! That is the school." Confirmed Eriol. Dumbledore waved his wand, which emitted a loud bang, causing all the whispers to die out.
"As I was saying," said Dumbledore, "the students form GUWWM is here on an exchange program. They will be selecting 30 of the students among you to go on an exchange program to their school at the end of this school year, meaning that you will be attending their school next year in an exchange program if you are selected. Princess Star, you may now begin the sorting." said Dumbledore, turning to the girl.
"Thank you Professor Dumbledore and please, call me Star. The year equivalences are the following. Ninth Year: Fourth Year; Tenth Year: Fifth Year; Eleventh Year: Sixth Year; and Twelfth Year: Seventh Year." She said, bowing to Dumbledore. Turning to the other students behind her, she said "I will now call out your name and you will put the Sorting Hat on." A piece of parchment magically appearing in her hand.
"Anida, Jacinda; tenth year; Global Masters."
A brown haired girl wearing purple robes trimmed with gold stars stepped out and walked to the hat, placing it on her head.
Hello Sorting Hat of Hogwarts.
You are.from Global.I don't expect them to come see them anymore. I trust my counterpart at Global is well?
Yes!
What house were you sorted in?
Rawona.
Then off you go to. "RAVENCLAW!" The table second to the left clapped as the girl replaced the hat onto the stool and walked over to the table where she sat down.
"Baldom, Damon (Da-mon); eleventh year; Global Diplomat." A boy in blue robes trimmed with sliver stars walked up and placed the hat onto his head.
"HUFFLEPUFF!"
"Bolefi, Luweis (Lewis); ninth year; Global PhD." A boy in black robes trimmed with sliver and gold stars stepped out and placed the hat on his head.
"SLYTHERIN!"
"Carana (Ka-ra-na), Misaki; twelfth year; Global Masters."
"GRYFFINDOR." This continued for sometime (with Ron making snide whispered remarks of "Haven't they finished yet? By the time they finished, I'll be a bag of bones!") until-
"Zumi, Acoyumi (A-co-u-mi); tenth year; Global PhD." At the last word, the piece of parchment in Star's hand disappeared.
"GRYFFINDOR." Just then, a girl in black robes stood up form the Gryffindor table and shouted "Crystal, Star; tenth year; Global PhD."
Star strolled up to the hat and put it on her head. The hat had barely touched it when it screamed out "GRYFFINDOR." She took of the hat, placed ii back on the stood before going over to the Gryffindor table amid loud applause. She walked over and sat between Harry and Tomoyo.
