yuiyui- well here it is i finally hit hogwarts , I am not posting anymore if I dont get at least 5 reviews ;) well here it is part 4 hope you like it
And by the way it took me so long to wrtie the Sorting Song so tell me what you think :)
The boats had arrived at hogwarts , they were all ushered out and taken to a large holding room , where an old witch was greeting them .
She was dressed it velvet navy robes that had a shooting star logo on each sleeve , the robe had a long neck that looked as though it was choking her , which would probably have explained the sour look on her face . She was quite old , her skin was sagging at her chin and her skin was so white you could see the many veins pulsating in her forehead .
" Welcome to Hogwarts , I am the deputy headmistress here at hogwarts , you may call me Proffeser Addergoole . In a few moments you will be taken to the great hall , where you will be sorted and put into you houses , they are gryffindor , hufflepuff, ravenclaw , and slitherin. When Slytherinm was called boos were issued from somewhere in the back of the students .
" Now really students " cried the headmistress
" Act respectable , all the houses have their own noble history and should be treated with respect ."
"Well off you go " she pointed in the direction of the now opening doors. Lily walked hesitanly towards them .
" Sev ?"
"Yeah , Lils " he whispered
" Why do the hate Slytherins?" Well its because slytherin house has turned out more dark wizards than all the houses combined , You Know Who was one as well ."
" Voldem...."
" Shhh.. no talking ." the proffesor silenced them.
Lily shrugged apolegetically at Severus then turned towards the great hall , while talking to Severus she did not notice that they had entered the Great Hall and was immediatly taken aback on how comfy and happy it seemed to be . There were four tables completly full with students talking and whispering .
At the end of the hall was a table risen high above the rest , there sat the proffesors which looked down upon them smiling with pride and a little amusement at the first years apprehensive faces.
Lily was feeling quite nervous she hoped that whichever house she would join would treat her with kindness and respect . At her old school she was shunned because of her apperance and slightly strange habits .
" What if I dont get into a house , and they send me back " thought Lily
She looked around glumly and saw Ethel and Severus smiling and pulling funny faces at her to try and lighten the mood .She saw someone else , someone with messy jet black hair , blue eyes and had noliking for Lily at all , it was James from the bookstore and his friend .
Lily's stomach dropped , it had taken her a week just to get over that encounter and to bring her self esteem back up to a somewhat reasonable level , she felt embarrased and angry , she wanted revenge .
Snapping Lily out of her murderous thoughts which included James , some hammers and a pair of spikes . Proffesor Addergoole was walking across the stage with a shabby looking hat , she placed it upon the stool and backed away from it while holding a list .
A rip on the brim of the hat suddenly opened and the hat burst into a song .
Apperarances are decieving
Take exapmle for me
I am more than meets the eye
I am more than what you see
You can wear your caps backwards
Your tophats tall and sleek
Even your sombreros large and quite unique
But you'll never find a hat with brains
That can rhyme and read your mind
Put me snugly on your head and I'll tell you what I find .
You might belong in Gryffindor where bravery is key ,
If you have bolness valor and gallantry
then a gryffindor you should be
In hufflepuff you'll find true friends
and most deservedly so
Hardworking and loyal
Into hufflepuff you go
At ravenclaw dwell the sharp and quick
The world of learning and reason
never ends
If ravenclaw is your pick.
Slick slytherin hosts the sly and rescourceful
If cunning ways and shrewd days are what you pursue
I'll say no more for slytherin is for you
The hour has come for my final descision
Will it be Slytherin for those of great ambition
Or ravenclaw for the truly smart
May it be hufflepuff for those with lots of heart
Perhaps Gryffindor their bravery set apart
The time has come
To slip this old hat on
I do not judge
I do not bite
Try me on for I am always right
Everyone in the great hall burst into applause as the sorting hat finished . It was perhaps the first years that cheered the loudest for the sorting hat meant that they wouldnt be fighting a toll or a chimera.
" As I call your name please come up to try on the hat ." said Addergoole
"AVERY , ALAN"
A tall gangly boy took the hat and sat down on the stool , after a few moments
"SLYTHERIN"
"BAIRD ,AIDAN"
"GRYFFINDOR"
"BLACK ,SIRIUS." He had black long shaggy hair and brown eyes, Lily recognized him as James's friend and immediately dislike him .
" what a slytherin" Lily thought.
Unfortunately for Lily the sorting hat did not agree
" GRYFFINDOR." It yelled. A loud cheer erruted from the gryffindor table .
Lily looked away in disgust as he jumped off and ran to join his new house .
She stopped paying attention to the sorting until.....
EVANS , LILY
She heard a faint smirk behind her as she was making her way over to the sorting hat probably from james. She picked up the sorting hat and stared at it with wide eyes . She did look quite funny sitting ther in her already too large glasses .She put the hat on and almost shrieked when it talked to her .
" Ah yes yes Lily Evans I presume now where to put you , a great amount of courage , none too shabby in booksmarts , ravenclaw perhaps or no no no You would cause an uproar in Ravenclaw , too much trouble. How bout Slytherin yes that would be a nice match , you certainly have the green eyes they would match you house colors? "
"Not Slytherin please "
" Are you sure"\
" If you dont put me in Gryfindor I will sit on you"
"Fair enough."
"GRYFFINDOR" the hat shouted rather quickly .
Lily was greeted by her house members with pats on the back and a few good job's
Lily sunk down into her spot completely droned out Addergoole and the sorting ceremony.
Why did the sorting hat want to put me in Slytherin , just because of my eyes , thats a bit shallow especially when it said " they would match the house colors" honestly what was the world coming to if a hat cared about what you looked like.
"REMUS LUPIN "
Lily perked up , did she know that name it sounded so familiar , she looked up to see a boy with sandy hair quite cute actually .
Lily was searching her memory wher had she heard that name before.
"Gryffindor"
The boy made his was down to the gryffindor table and high fived Black
he sat down next to Lily and said "Hi"
That voice where had she heard that voice
"Hello ,Hi there."he repeated
"Oh hi , I'm sorry do I know you " Lily said
He reached over and took off her glasses and put them on the table . Lily just looked up at him and blinked .
"Thats for me to know and for you to find out " said remus
Lily was just about to refute that comment but a name was called .
"POTTER ,JAMES"
Lily gave him her most peircing stare .The moment the hat touched his head it said
"GRYFFINDOR"
He made his way down to the table and sat beside his friends . He got quite a few looks from the girls .
"Hey Sirius hey rem , wheres the food , I'm starving ."
" Honestly James is that all you can think about ."Said Remus
"Almost , say who is this ."James turned to Lily who was still without ehr glasses and giving him if not the most smoldering glare which he seemed to think was her idea of flirting .
"James potter at your service milady."
"I know who you are ." Said Lily stonily she put back on her glasses and turned to the sorting determined not to give one look at Potter or his little friends .
"SEVERUS SNAPE"
Lily immediately perked up Common Sev dont leave me stranded here with these idiots.
Severus went and put on the hat .
" Ah yes Mr.Snape I can see the reason you want to be in Gryffindor I know the real reason It's because of that little redhead the one with the huge glasses rather unattractive though."
"Don't you evertalk about Lily that way unless you want to find moths somehow found you . "
"Okay Okay touchy ."
"Still I cannot honor that request your place is in Slytherin that is where your father was and his father and his father you will be a ..."
"NO" thoght Severus
"SLYTHERIN"
Severus cast one look at Lily and saw her face fall he dropped his sholders and walked glumly to the Slytherin table where he was greeted with tumultuos applause , seeing as how each and everymember of Slytherin somehow connected or knew his family.
Lily was shocked how could Sev be a Slytherin he isnt bad , or did he not want to be in the same house as me that he chose Slytherin jutst to get away .
"Ugly git eh , maybe he should wash his hair ."said James from behind her .
Lily felt blind rage boil up inside her
" So is that it Potter ," she spat "Do you take one look at a person and think oh he is a loser"
"How dare you Snap..."
"or think they look like something that got stuck on your shoe ." She yelled at him
He stared at her she was that girl at that shop he could now remember her she looked exactly as she did now .
" Listen Flames get back to the ceremony before you stick your huge glasses in my face ."
said James Spitefully.
Lily was so appaled she didnt want to even look at him she had never been so angry .
All of a sudden her hand pointed at James and in the middle of her palm a red bspiral of fire could be visible . Lily just felt angry she had no idea how she had done this and it went away almost as quickly as the fire cam , the spiral disapeared and she turned away from James no longer angry but fearful of what she could of done .
"ETHEL WOODS"
James had a scared expression on his face as he looked at Lily , he had veen the only one who had seen what Lily had done , it was unatural even for a witch . He scooted away from Lily as Ethel Woods became a Gryfindor .
Lily was still in a little shock from what she had almost done to James that she half-heartedly hugged Ethel .
Her distraction was over though when a wizard at the center of the head table stood up and cleared his throat. He had a short red beard and was quite short.
"Welcome to another year at Hogwarts . Sadly it is my duty to inform you that recent event concerning You know.... Vol.....de......mmmmort ,"he said shakily
"All visits to Hogsmede are cancelled and no one will be returning home during the breaks, this is o ensure you all safety.Also the whomping willow is forbidden as well as the dark forest . That is all Let the feast begin."
The tables immediatly filled with dishes and dishes of excellent cooking(A/N :Im not going to go into it .)Lily was quite full and was chatting with Ethel when they were ushered to their dormitories . She had quite a full day and the moment her head touched the pillow she instantly fell asleep.
