Ch. 8- Hazel's Sorting
They got out and got in the horseless carriage. Hazel was so excited she could barley contain it.
"Oh darn, we forgot to introduce Hazel to Hagrid!" said Harry.
"I didn't even see Hagrid," said Ron.
"You guys don't remember anything do you?" said Hermione.
They all looked at her. "Hagrid and Madame Maxime are getting married, remember," said Hermione.
"Oh yeah that's right," said Harry remembering now.
"Should I have gone with the first years to get sorted?" asked Hazel.
"No, Dumbledore will probably sort you before the first years," said Hermione.
"I hope I get Gryffindor," said Hazel.
"I'm sure you will. You act like a Gryffindor," said Ron.
Hazel smiled. When the carriage stopped they got out and Professor McGonagall came over to them.
"Hazel dear, Professor Dumbledore wants to see you before everyone else goes in," she said.
"O.K," said Hazel.
Harry gave her a hug and whispered, "Good Luck" in her ear.
Hazel followed Professor McGonagall to the great hall. Hazel was so taken back by its beauty. When they reached Professor Dumbledore Hazel was at first sacred. Then he smiled at her and all her fears went away.
"Hello Mrs. Holiday," said Dumbledore.
"Hello Professor," said Hazel.
"Hazel we are going to sort you before we sort the first years O.K.," said Dumbledore.
"O.K," said Hazel and then students started to fill the great hall.
Hazel noticed Harry out of everyone else. He smiled at her and she couldn't help but giggle and smile back.
Harry seat down at the Gryffindor table and asked Ron to scoot down one so Hazel could set next to him. Ron did but made a face about it.
"Harry don't count your chickens till they hatch," said Hermione.
"What?" asked Harry
"Never mind," said Hermione. "Just don't get disappointed if she gets put in Hufflepuff or Ravenclaw."
"Oh Hermione, we had this discussion already. She's defiantly a Gryffindor," said Ron.
After everyone seat down the first years came in. They stopped and Dumbledore stood up.
"As some of you already know we have a new 7th year student. Her name is Hazel Holiday and she will be sorted before the first years," said Dumbledore. Then he motioned his hand for Hazel to seat down on the stool. She did so.
Hazel was really nervous. She felt like she was going to faint. But then she looked over at Harry and he gave her all the confidence she needed.
Professor McGonagall placed the hat on Hazel's head. It was quite for awhile then Hazel heard the hat talk to her.
"Ah you are a difficult one. You have plenty of courage and you are also smart. But where should I put you? Ravenclaw? No that's not right. Hufflepuff? No that's not it either," said the hat.
"Please put me in Gryffindor," Hazel begged inside her head.
"You want to be a Gryffindor eh. Well you do have all the qualities of one but you have something that only one Gryffindor has and you two shouldn't be put together so I think you would be best in...SLYTHERIN!!" shouted the hat.
The whole Slytherin table shouted and yelled with happiness.
Hazel felt like she was going to cry.
"I'm a..I'm a Slytherin," she said helplessly.
She looked over at Harry. Harry looked as shocked as she did.
Inside Harry's mind he keep thinking "No the hat made a mistake. It will fix it," Then Harry realized something, Hazel would be in the same house as Malfoy!
Malfoy had the biggest grin on his face. He had made Crabbe move down a seat and was motioning for Hazel to seat next to him.
Hazel walked over and stopped in front of Malfoy. She looked down at the seat set aside for her then walked away. She took a seat down at the end of the table by herself.
"Fine if she wants to play like that then we will play like that," thought Malfoy.
Harry smiled when he seen Hazel do what she did but he hated that she was over there. He looked at her. She had her head down writing in her tablet. She wasn't even eating. Harry thought this was going to be very hard to seat and watch.
"I can't believe she was put in Slytherin!" yelled Ron.
"I will admit I was shocked," said Hermione.
Harry didn't have anything to say, he just knew this year was going to be long.
*I know it was horrible of me to do that but that's why I did it!! :)
