*~*Chapter 4: Into Your New Houses*~*
Sakura, Syaoran, and Eriol had gotten in the same carriage as Harry, Ron and Hermione. Ginny was with her friends (who ever they are). Sakura was watching Hogwarts slowly come to view. She had never seen a place that looked so big, or spectacular! The darkened lake shone in the half moon and the twinkling lights comming from the castle reminded her of the view from Tokyo Tower. Kero popped his head our of Sakura's bag.
" *yawn* Are we there yet?" Sakura stuffed him back in the bag. "Hey! Wmfmmmsmf!!!"
"Shhhhhh!" Everyone was staring at her. "Ah, eh, heh heh....Sorry." The door swung open as the carriage stopped. Harry got out first and saw Professor McGonagall staring sternly at him. *What did I do know?* he thought. The others had gotten out and Ron gulped at the sight of their teacher. He whispered to Harry.
"Do you think we did anything wrong?" Harry didn't respond. The professor's eyes weren't looking at him anymore. They were looking at the new trio.
"Miss Sakura Kinomoto, Mr. Syaoran Li, and Mr. Eriol Hiiragizawa I presume?" They nodded. "You three need to come with me. You need to be sorted into your houses." They followed the professor, no questions asked. Sakura turned around and waved goodbye. Harry, Ron and Hermione waved back.
"I hope at least one of them is in Gryffindor. I really like them," Hermione said as they walked to the Great Hall. They took their seats at the Gryffindor table. Harry looked up at the staff table and was surprized to see Professer Moody sitting there. He also noted that there were two empty chairs at the table. He nudged Ron in the side.
"Look! It's Professer Moody! I thought he was only going to teach for our fouth year!" Ron looked up.
"Yah, well, I guess they couldn't find anyone else and forced him to do it. He doesn't look too keen on being here, does he?" Ron was right. Moody's real eye kept darting around the hall, just like his magical one. He still jumped when someone spoke to him and seemed to be muttering to himself. "Gosh, I wonder if all Aurors end up like him." The entire hall became silent as the new first years came in a single file line behind Professor McGonagall. Harry could see his new friends at the end of the line (it was really hiallarious because they dwarfed the rest of the line). The Professor placed the stool and Sorting Hat in front of the staff table. Dumbledore stood up and began speaking.
"Now, I know that I usually save my speaches untill after the Sorting Ceremony," he said, eyes twinkling. "And I will have to save it for last again this year. But, I just wanted to welcome three new exchange students in particular; Mr. Eriol Hiiragizawa, Mr. Syaoran Li and Miss Sakura Kinomoto, all from Japan!" The Hall gave a polite appluse to the and quieted. Sakura and Eriol smiled while Syaoran just got a pink tinge on his face. "Now, on with the ceremony!" And with that, the rip near the brim of the Sorting Hat opened wide and broke into song. (I am not J.K. Rowling and I'm not going to try. Sorry, but I don't rhyme!)
After the song ended, Professor McGonagall un-rolled a large scroll and becan to read off names. "Aberfom, James!" She continued as Hermione whispered to Ron and Harry.
"Not very many this year, I see." Harry nodded and watched McKean, Karen become a new Gryffindor. Finally, only three people were left standing up.
"Hiiragizawa, Eriol!" Eriol walked to the Hat calmly and placed it on his head. {Well, now.} a voice in his ear said. {I wondered when I would be seeing you. One of the reincarnations of Clow Reed, am I correct?} Eriol laughed slightly. "Yah. Which house are you going to put me in?" {I'm not sure. Should I put you in Ravenclaw? Or Slytherin?} "I really don't mind, which ever one you think. {Oh, I see. Well, I guess then there is only one place to put you.}
"RAVENCLAW!" the Hat shouted. The Ravenclaw table gave a loud cheer as Eriol walked over and sat down. Sakura clapped too. Harry sighed. *Darn, I was hoping he would be with us.* Professor McGonagall cleared her throat and read out another name.
"Kinomoto, Sakura!" Sakura gulped and started forward.
"Wish me luck, Syaoran." Harry sat on the edge of his seat. *Please let her be in Gryffindor. Please let her be in Gryffindor..* Sakura sat on the stool and placed the faded hat on her head.
{Ooo...Mistress of the Sakura Cards I see. I can also see that you have great power. Brave, not afraid to fight for what you beleive in, stubborn. Slytherin sounds like a good place for you...}
"Oh! I don't want to be in Slytherin!! Please put me in any house, other than Slytherin!" she exclaimed quietly. The frayed hat laughed in her ear.
{I see now. Fine I won't put you in Slytherin. My second choice, then, is...}
"GRYFFINDOR!"
"Yes!!" Harry exclaimed. He cheered as Sakura let out a sigh of relief. *I wasn't put in Slytherin. I'm glad.* She sat next to Hermione and waved back at Syaoran. Syaoran looked really uncomfortable, all alone up there.
"Li, Syaoran!" He blushed as he heard his name called. He forced himself to sit on the stool. He jammed the hat on on and waited.
{Jeeze! Calm down, kid! I'm ripped up enough as it is!}
"Sorry..." Syaoran grumbled. *Not my fault that you're a ripped up piece of-*
{Hey! I know what you were about to think! Well, with that kind of attitude, it is obvious that you belong in Slytherin!}
*NOOOO!!!! I want to be in Gryffindor!! GYRFFINDOR!!* Syaoran's mind screamed. The hat was quiet for a few moments before shouting out, "GRYFFINDOR!" Syaoran laughed out loud. He was in the same house as Sakura! He took the hat off and akwardly walked to the Gryffindor table.
"Yay! We're in the same house!" Sakura exclaimed. Syaoran smiled his rare smile and sat down next to the Mistress. Dumbledore stood once more and the students grew quiet.
"Yes, now that that is over, I suppose I will update you on what is going on. As usual, the Forbidden Forest is, well, fobidden!" A few laughs from the crowd. "Yes, and I will also say that Divination classes will be canceled, due to the fact that Professor Trelawney has decided that she needed time to clear her 'inner eye' up." Professor McGonagall snorted at this comment. Harry knew that she thought Divination was a load of hogwash. "All students who were taking her class will now be switched to The Study of Asian Magic that will be taught by two professors. One, is Professor Yukito Tsukishiro and the other is Professor Nakuru Akizuki. They will be staying with us, hopefully untill Professor Trelawney is back." Yukito and Nakuru walked over and took the two empty seats.
"Which will be never, I hope," Ron whispered to Harry. Sakura and Syaoran were shocked.
"When did they come here? What is going on?" Syaoran had the same look of confusion on his face.
"Well, I don't think there is anything else to say, so let the feast begin!" And the golden platters filled with food. Sakura immediatly forgot the whole Yukito thing and began to fill her plate high. Syaoran got a sweat drop and just started to eat quietly. Kero popped out of Sakura's pack again.
"PUDDING!!!! Sakura! As one of your guardian beasts, I demand that you save me some of that pudding!" Sakura just stuffed Kero's head back into the bag.
"I'll give you some later! There is too many people around!" Kero grumbled in the bag.
"Yah right..." Sakura heard this and dropped a small piece of a cake into her bag. The little animal's eyes lit up and he started to munch happily. *At least he will stay quiet...* After the feast, a prefect named Abigal Deformald lead them to their dormitories. She gave them the password (Tempest Fugets) and pointed out the beds.
"Boys to the left and girls to the right. Lights out in one hour. Sakura and Hermione waved bye to the boys and retired to their soft beds. Harry, Ron, and Syaoran put their night clothes on and went to sleep with not much said. The lights were extinguished and left Syaoran in the dark, thinking about why he was at Hogwarts. There had to be some other reason, other than the fact that he had a bit of magic in his blood. He drifted to sleep, thinking about what was in store for him tomorrow and what Sakura was doing right now. Tee hee....
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~~~~~
Chapter four compleated! Yay!! This little comment is for Bunny: You were sort of right! Not really! I put Eriol in Ravenclaw because he is too good to be in Slytherin and is really smart! Ravenclaw is famous for having good thinkers so, ja! I put Syaoran in Gryffindor because I couldn't stand to see him seperate from Sakura!!! They look sooo cute together!! Should Syaoran and/or Sakura try out for the Gyffindor Quidditch team? Give me some feed back!! The next chapter will be about their first
