Professor McGonnagol walked to the front of the Great Hall, and set down a stool and placed a very old, raggy hat on it. The sorting hat broke out in song:
Slytherin's are the best to some,
But others it is not,
You'll meet your real friends here,
Loyalty is one quality,
Of these true Hufflepuffs,
Bravery you have to be,
To be a Gryffindor you see,
Ravenclaws are the smartest of them all,
Yet they can still have a ball,
Just put me on and I will see,
What house is perfect for you.
The first years looked in amazment at this ancient hat. Professor McGonnagal started calling off the names of the witches and wizards that were now goes to be sorted.
"Merry, Scott," Professor McGonnagal called out.
A white-haired, scared looking, boy, walked up to the stool and sat down. Professor McGonnagal placed the hat upon the boys head, and it called out "Hufflepuff."
Nine others got sorted and 2 of those came to Gryffindor, Frank Wirght and Secelia Thomas. After the sorting ceremoney they all ate.
Harry, Ron, and Hermione walked out of the Great Hall and where headed toward there common room, when a very pretty girl approached them and asked if she could talk to Harry alone. The others went on and Harry stayed back with the girl.
"Hello, my name is Lainey Rees. Yes, I know that you are Harry Potter. I have noticed you around, but I have never had the courage to come talk to you. Well, I am in Slytherin, but please don't think that I am mean like they are. Really, I don't even know why I was placed in Slytherin."
"Well, that is nice," said Harry. "We will have to talk more some other time, I am really wiped out right now. I could do with a spot of rest."
"Ok, well talk to you later Harry!"
She turned and walked away toward the dungeons. Harry watched her dissapear out of site. Only one other pretty girl had ever approached him, and that was Cho Chang. He decided that he would talk to this girl after classes tommorow.
