What's a Hogwarts? By: Keri (aka: Li Blossom)

Chapter 3: Finally at Hogwarts.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Tomoyo and Sakura squealed. "Meiling!!!!!"

There stood a familiar girl with long black hair that stood in its same two buns and gleaming ruby eyes.

The girls tackled Meiling in a crushing embrace.

"Oh my god! It's been so long!" Sakura screeched, pulling at Meiling's solitaire ponytail.

"I can't believe you're here!" Tomoyo said, jumping up and down, "Oh you're so tall and grown up! I've got to get you to model my clothes!"

"Wait a second." Meiling said looking around, "Where is little Xiaolang? Oh there you are!"

Meiling grabbed Syaoran, who tried his best to hide.

~~*~~

Everyone spilled out of the train and onto a big platform.

"Good evening, Professor Hiiragizawa," Hagrid said.

"Good evening," Eriol said bowing, "Hagrid, I have the new exchange students from Japan, and it would be a shame for them to not have the experience to travel over the lake."

"I agree. Shall we proceed to the boats?" Hagrid asked holding his lantern high above his head. "I think we have some bad weather coming."

"Well, actually I would like to talk with Professor McGonagall."

"Are you sure? This is the experience of a life time."

"Very."

~~*~~

They followed into the great hall, still shivering from the little mishap with the thing in the water.

"Sakura are you sure you're okay?" Syaoran asked, putting his cloak over her.

"Yeah," Sakura stuttered pulling the cloak close to her.

"God, I can't believe you tried to feed that thing." Meiling said cutting in front of a bunch of first years to be with them.

"I thought it was a fish. Who knew that it was allergic to wheat."

Tomoyo laughed, "I did love the part where Syaoran heroically jumped into the freezing water to save you."

"Yeah, he deserves a big fat kiss." Meiling said nudging Sakura in the ribs.

Syaoran turned beat red, "It was nothing."

"Everyone please quiet down," a figure said. The old man was wearing a dark blue cloak with stars sewn onto it and a matching blue hat. His beard fell down over his arms, "Everyone please welcome the new first years, and four new transfer students. And oh yes our new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher, Professor Hiiragizawa."

Eriol stood up and waved, "Hello, I'm lucky to be your new teacher. Don't worry, I know all about your previous teachers and their unkindly leavings. Do not be bothered, I plan on staying for quite a while."

Clapping erupted from the students.

"And I am also pleased to announce that Professor Hiiragizawa will be Griffindor's new head teacher. It seems that Professor McGonagall would rather not be bothered with it this year."

"So the old hag is starting to act as old as she looks," someone whispered.

"I'm sure your all hungry, so let the sorting begin." Professor Dumbledore announced.

Professor Hiiragizawa placed an old patched up hat onto a six-legged stool.

It sprang to life and began singing.

Well all of you are back again. And some here are new. I will find a place for all of you. And not lead you askew.

There are four houses at Hogwarts, And I'll tell you about each..... We got Gryffindor so strong and bold, And Ravenclaw cleverest one of all, Hufflepuff has true friends, And Slytherin is powerful of course.

This school has harbored many, Some famous ones indeed. We have Mary Havensburg And Dean Cloevee.

Now all of you are worthy So don't worry or sweat. I'll know where you belong After you I've met.

Now come up and place me upon your head. I'll look deep in you heart And find where you belong.

The crowded burst out clapping.

"Eleanor Fissori," Eriol called out in his very English accent.

The minute it touched her head, the hat shouted, "Ravenclaw."

(Okay, I'm skipping the boring stuff)

Syaoran's Gryffindor Sakura's Gryffindor Tomoyo's Gryffindor Meiling's Slytherin

"Well, enough said, let's eat," Professor Dumbledore said.

~~*~~

At the Slytherin Common Room.

Meiling looked around in agony. -This is the common room, it looks more like a prison room. God, the decorators must have been blind or prisoners.-

"Another year to torment Potter," A boy with slick silver hair and blue eyes said loudly, "and it seems he has new recruits. I have to say they are utterly pathetic."

Meiling watched in disgust as the boy followed by two bulky looking boys wonder around looking like he owned the place.

"Did you see the new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher?" Draco said trying to get listeners, "What kind of name is Hirwomsomething? He's the same age as us!! I'm sending my dad a letter, I bet I can get him fired within two weeks."

Meiling snorted in annoyance, "First, Eriol's like two thousand years old. Second he could kick you and your bodyguards fat asses without breaking a sweat."

"Oh really, and who are you?" Draco asked with his infamous smirk.

Meiling put her hands on her hips and said proudly, "I am Meiling Li, part of the Li Clan, the most rich and powerful clan in Hong Kong, maybe even the world. I'm also a descendant of Clow reed, *many people gasp* the most powerful sorcerer in history, and it so happens that Syaoran, my cute cousin, is the future leader."

Draco smiled and said, "I'm Draco Malfoy, son of Lucius Malfoy."

"Uh yeah, who the hell is he?" Meiling asked, not really caring.

Draco's eye twitched, "What do you mean who the hell is he?!"

"I mean who the hell is he?" Meiling spat, getting really frustrated with his arrogance.

Draco raised an eyebrow. Spunky, this one, he thought to himself.

~~*~~

Sakura collapsed on the Gryffindor couch. It had been a long long day.

Syaoran leaned against the couch and looked at her. "Tired?"

She nodded got up so he could sit down. She leaned against his shoulder and closed her eyes. He closed his eyes and whispered something that made her giggle. (They are still just friends.) Harry looked over them in dismay.

"Are you listening, Harry?" Hermione asked.

Harry nodded. "Sure."

Hermione looked at the pair and blushed, "He is cute isn't he?"
