A/N GRAR sorry so sorry it took so long I had my first few weeks of the
lovely Highschool experience(getting lost, an hour of homework getting up
at 5 am ect...) and it gave me serious writers block. Well hopefully ill b
alright now and can update sooner. Well once again, let us move onto this
chappy...thanks all for still readin this^_^
Chaos went over to where the other first years were gathered. There was a tall big man he heard some people call Hagrid. The large man looked over everyone.
"Awright." He said in a deep voice. "Your all here so I can take you to 'ogwarts. Everyone get in these 'ere boats." he said, pointing to some seemingly normal rowboats. Chaos got in one with a few people he, obviously, didn't know and then the boats started off, moving quickly to the large castle ahead of them.
Chaos watched, enchanced by the size and wonder of the huge castle that would be his home and school for the next almost 10 months.
Soon they reached the other side of the massive body of water and him and the rest of the first years were lead into the school by the seeming Giant. Everyone was looking about excitedly, most chatting wildly.
Chaos held onto Shadow tightly as he made his way forward. Finally, they all made it to a big set of Double doors. The giant seemingly named Hagrid knocked on the doors loudly. A man with black hair opened it.
"I have the firs' years here Professor Snape." Hagrid announced to the other man, looking somewhat what intimidated which looked a bit funny to Chaos, seeing as the man called Hagrid was at least a foot taller in height and twice the width of the black haired man. Professor Snape smirked mirthlessly at the mostly cowering first years.
"Well then...follow me." He said to the first years, most of whom looked petrified of Professor Snape. Chaos could care less about it because his Uncle intimadated him about 10 times more. The seemingly cruel Professor walked them to the door of the great hall.
"Now...in a few moments I will be opening this door which leads to the Great Hall. You will stand in a neat and orderly line and wait for your name to be called. You are then to go up to where the sorting hat is and will be further diected from there. No funny business...or you will have to deal with me" He told them and with that he opened the doors to the Great Hall. Chaos stared around in amazment.
It was as if he had...no wait he HAD walked into another world. He held shadow tightly as he gazed stunnedly around, taking notice of every little detail such as the ghosts and ceilings that showed the outside sky. He heard someone tell him to move forward and he did so, moving to the table where first years were to sit.
Suddenly a hat was brought in. Everyone stared at it and then suddenly it perked up and started talking.(A/N I apolagize ahead of time for the quality and well...all around suckiness of this poem....thankyou for your time)
At first glance I may seem useless
But for many years students and adults alike
Have listened to me closley
And learn to heed my good advice.
Now today we have many new faces
Also many that have come back again
For everyone here theres a story to tell
A past that most may not understand
Each of your pasts tell me who you are
And where you need to be
How you have aspired so far
Will lead you forward
And show you what you need to see
What Ravenclaw had Knowledge
Lacked what Gryffindor had in bravery
What Slytherin had in cunning
Lacked what Hufflepuff had in loyalty
Each person here
Has one of the qualities needed
To do well in one of the houses
And above all be able to succeed.
Dark times are coming once again
And things will begin to get difficult
So use your skills to your advantage
And overcome all your faults
Although it may not seem it now
You will all soon leave here
With the knowledge and strength
To overcome all of your fear
For its not only magic taught
Its inner strenght within
And how if you gain enough of it
You will most certainly win
So I must end this now
Hoping you will take my words to heart
And remember that only you
Can keep yourself from falling apart.
The hat became as silent as it had been before when it has first been brought out. The majority of the first years gawked in amazement at the hat, making some of the teachers smile in remembrance of their first time at being sorted. Suddenly the man known as Professor Snape stood.
"Alright...when I announce your name, you will go put on the hat and it will tell you which house to go to. No delays. You will go straight up there, put on the hat and come back down. I don't want any of you do anything stupid. Now...here we go." He said, lifting up a parchment of manilla paper.
"Aberray, Shawn!!!" He said and a boy with brown hair walked up, tripping and almost falling. The blushed and put the hat on nervously.
"GRYIFFINDOR!" The hat called out. Grinning nervously, the new found Gryffindor made his way to the table that had begun cheering loudly. The hat called out a few more names Chaos didn't quite hear, his own nervousness starting to creep up on him.
"Dammit...calm down Malfoy..." He thought to himself, taking a deep breath before he heard his name.
"Malfoy Chaos!!" Snape said loudly. Chaos looked up at the black haired Professor and thought he saw some strange emotion run through his eyes. As he walked up to the stool, still clutching the cat,, he thought he felt some stares on him...no they were like glares... but he ignored them as he took some cautious steps towards the stool holding the sorting hat. He placed the hat on, waiting anxiously for its response.
"Well now...looky who it is. Young Malfoy I see...well this is quite interesting indeed. You have the traits for all the houses. They are all almost equally balanced out...but you seem to have more courage than anything, although your heart is quite cold. Therefore I have only once choice and that is to place you in the house your father was meant to be in...GRYFFINDOR!" The hat shouted. Chaos looked over to the table that was Gryffindor. He smiled as he saw Chris applauding loudly, although half the table looked stricken and weren't clapping.
"Maybe it had to do with my father..." He thought to himself as he hurried down to the table, where he sat next to Chris, who was holding a chair for him. The table looked at Chaos oddly, as though they had never seen anyone quite like him. Chaos sunk back into his chair a bit. Chris wouldn't have it though.
"Hey back off. He didn't do anything to you guys." He said in Chaos's defense. Most people did back off and Chaos looked at him gratefully. Chris grinned in return and Chaos turned to watch the rest of the sorting. Soon enough it was over, the last student being sorted into Slytherin.
A loud banging sound of a spoon hitting a dish was heard and everyone looked over towards a table that, as Chaos saw it, held the staff. He saw the giant Hagrid, the black haired Snape, Chris's dad, who he could swear was sending him dirty looks now, and many other teachers, including the one who had made the loud noise, who was an older woman with gray black hair. She stood up.
"Attention all. To you first years, I am Professor McGonagall, the headmistress. Let us all stand and take a silent moment in memory of the now deceased Headmaster Dumbledorem who left this earth 5 years ago." She said and all of the students, some looking unwillingly, stood up and bowed their heads. Chaos did the same, not knowing who he was, but could sense that this man was very important. After a minute, the headmistress cleared her throat.
"Now, this year as always the forbidden forest is off limits to all those who don't have permission." She said, and Chaos could swear she was glancing at Chris when she said this. Chris just stared right back with an amused expression on his face.
"Also," She continued. "We have changed the security, as SOME students found it amusing last year to loiter out in the hallways past 1 am." Again she looked at Chris. "So from now on, the students are not to be out of their designated common room beyond 8:00pm. The head of the house will be checking randomly throughout the night, so beware. That's all for now. Let the feast begin." She said cheerfully, and Chaos looked at the table and marveled at all the food. He grabbed some of everything, eating quickly, afraid it would disappear and he'd be left hungry. Chris looked at the Chaos amusedly.
"Slow down you are going to make yourself sick." He said with a smile. Chaos grinned and did so, but only slightly. Soon everyone was done eating the savory meal and were chatting lightly. Chaos sat there, feeling extremely content, full and tired. Chris turned to him after a few moments of talking to his friends.
"So how do you like it so far?" Chris asked. Chaos smiled.
"It's wonderful. It's more than I ever imagined it could possibly be." He told Chris, grinning happily. Chris smiled back at him.
"So do you know any magic yet?" He asked Chaos who shook his head.
"No...not yet." He said simply, not wanting to get into the people who raised him anymore than he had to. He hoped he wasn't supposed to know anything.
"Oh well don't worry you'll learn all you'll need." Chris said reassuringly, sensing the boy's panic. "Even full muggles can learn magic quickly." He said. Chaos smiled, pretending to know what a muggle was and then yawned loudly. Chris grinned
"We'll be going to the common room soon so you'll be able to go to bed then." Chris told Chaos, who nodded. A few moments later, it was announced that they were to go their rooms. Chris helped Chaos with his stuff and helped him up, recieving glares from the other Gryffindors. The walk to the rooms was lead by the prefects, one of whom was one of Chris's best friends. Chaos stuck by Chris the entire way, not trusting anyone else, especially with the looks they gave him. Soon enough, they reached the portrait with the fat lady on it.
"Firniculous." One of the prefects said and the portrait swund open and everyone clammored in.
"This is the gryffindor common room. To get in here, all you have to do is say the password, which is currently 'Furniculous' to that portrait." Chris told a now half asleep Chaos, who nodded. Chris smiled and took him to the room they'd be sleeping in.
"Here you can sleep in this bed." He told Chaos, who nodded and layed down, falling asleep immdiently.
Shadow jumped onto the bed and curled himself into a ball. Chris smiled as he went to his own bed, which so happened to be next to Chaos's still wondering why his dad.--and the rest of pretty much the Gryffindor house-- would have such a grudge against a seemingly nice boy like Chaos just because of some petty feud against the boy's family and father.
A/N--There it is^_^ Please review...i like reviews...they are very good.^_^ And hopefully I will be able to update sooner than last time.
