"R-resorted?" stuttered MacGonagall. "But why would you want to be resorted Harry?" Harry watched in amusement as the professor tried to collect her wits. 'Didn't see that coming, now did you?' "Yes, Professor. I would like to be resorted on the fact that I don't feel like I belong in Gryffindor House anymore" his gaze darkened dramatically. "I've changed." 'And for the better.' Harry silently stroked his now healed wound. The blood stopped flowing sometime during Dumbledores' interrogation.

The other professors stared at Harry shocked. And kept on staring. Finally, Harry had had enough and with disgust plainly standing out said, "Like what you see? I'm not for sale, sorry." Someone to his left snorted softly and Harry was surprised to see Snape trying to hold in his laughter. 'Obviously someone thinks I'm funny' Harry thought. But his comment, sarcastic as it was, had the desired effect- they stopped looking at him like he was insane. 'And maybe I am.'

"If you're sure about this Harry than place the hat on your head" said Dumbledore. Harry nodded and placed the hat on to his head. The hat fell around his head and Harry heard a soft voice echo in his ear. "Having second thoughts on where you belong, eh?" Harry frowned. "Yes I am. I don't belong in my old house anymore, I've been through too much to stay with people who wouldn't understand." "Ah, so I see. You won't try to fight my decision this time, will you?" "No."

Every one stared at Harry and waited silently. They had no clue what was being said to Harry, fore his face was blanker than the dead. Which Harry thought just might be true. "I don't care where you put me, Hat, as long as it's not Gryffindor." "No no no, Harry. Not Gryffindor, you have changed too much. You need people who will understand how you feel and you will do the best in - SLYTHERIN!" the hat suddenly shouted.

Harry calmly removed the hat and placed it onto the chair besides him. He looked up at the shocked looks on the professors' faces and calmly stated, "So, Professor Snape, when do I move in?" The look of outrageous disbelief on the poor Professors face made Harry break out into uncontrolled laughter. 'Being in Slytherin House might be fun. Maybe I can change his opinion on me' the laughter had slowly died and a strange look filled his eyes. The only person in the whole room who would meet his eyes was staring right at him. 'Yes, I will definitely change his opinion.'

AN: Sorry for the short chapter and as you can guess I don't know who Harry will be with. Please enjoy! ~Ta-ta
