CO: MeiDarkreign and AnDrEwSrObOt.
A/N: I wrote this chapter, yes me, GoldenLion.
Soon enough all the first years reached the grand entrance doors of Hogwarts castle. The great maple doors flew open as the students started filling the staircase. Marc, Mary, Sangeeta, Rachel, Harry, Ron and Hermione were the last seven students to reach the staircase. All the students were waiting quietly until a scream/whimper came from the top of the staircase.
"What in hell are you willying about?" said the white-blonde haired boy Rachel longed for.
"Trevorrr!!!" "Trevor where are youu!!" whimpered a chubby Irish boy with buckteeth and short hair.
The students started talking amongst themselves. No one had any idea who or what Trevor was. Their first year of learning magic hadn't even started and there was already chaos in the midst.
The students' chattering was broken by an ear-shattering scream from the bottom of the staircase. Rachel had grabbed Sangeeta and Harry in front of her as a shield. In front of the three first years was a green speckled toad. It was slimy and chubby (which gave a clue to who's it was).
"Boy at the top of the stairs, I think I've found your so called 'Trevor'" said Ron, holding a green blob in the palm of his hand.
The chubby boy came running down the stairs as fast as his fat legs could carry him.
"Trevorrr!!!" "I've found youu!!!"
The short boy snatched the frog from Ron's hand and returned to his standing on the top stair. Rachel finally let go of poor Sangeeta and Harry whose robes were badly stretched by her grip. The staircase was silent again. Rachel was shaking like mad and Sangeeta tried to calm her but something else suddenly had. Harry looked at Rachel and then up at the top pf the staircase where Rachel's eyes were fixed.
Then Harry nudged Sangeeta and she nudged everyone else on the bottom stairs. Rachel's gaze was directed toward the white-blonde haired boy at the top of the stairs. The boy's gaze was also fixed on Rachel for some odd reason none of them knew of.
The boy's gaze was broken from Rachel's as an old woman wearing black robes came into view.
"Welcome to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, I am the Transfiguration teacher here, I am Professor McGonagall."
There was a snicker from the bottom of the stairs.
"Professor McGonagally, my mane is Professor McWrinkley!!!!" said Marc.
"Marc, SHUT-UP!" said Rachel, Mary, Hermione and Sangeeta all at once, while Mary kicked him in the shin. Professor McGonagall paused and then continued,
"This is, of course, your first year at Hogwarts and hopefully all of you will be staying with us for the years to come." "When I instruct you to, please follow me into the Great hall, there you will stand in an orderly line, you will be called up to proceed to be sorted into your houses," "After you are sorted you will quietly sit with your fellow students on your house table." "Is everything clear?" "And yes, before I forget if there is any fooling around," she looked at seven students, especially one at the bottom of the staircase, "you will be sent into detention with our potions teacher, Profess Snape, before you can say 'chocolate frogs'."
Rachel gave a little whimper as the word 'frogs' came out of Professor McGonagall's mouth.
"Now at my que, please follow me into the ceremony.'
With that the great wooden doors swung open into the Great Hall. As the students entered the hall they captured every distinct piece of magic they could. They gasped and smiled at all the unusual things they had never seen until now.
"This is bloody wicked!" said Marc.
"Look at the ceiling, it looks like the night sky!" said Sangeeta.
" Well, actually it's a charmed ceiling, magic has helped it to look like the night sky," "I read it in Hogwarts A History." Hermione corrected.
"I knew she read that in some book." said Ron.
As all the students filled the cramped spaces between the Slytherin and Gryffindor house tables, the heavy wooden doors behind them quietly closed.
"First years will now be sorted into their houses, after we hear the Hogwarts traditional song sung by the Sorting Hat." said Professor McGonagall.
Of course, Harry, Sangeeta, Mary, Rachel, Ron, Hermione and marc were paying no attention what so ever, since they were too busy viewing the floating candles, while Hermione was explaining that they were really just magically charmed to do so.
".. You can keep your bowlers black, your top hats sleek and tall.. I am the Hogwarts Sorting Hat, I can top them all.."
Apparently Marc didn't hear the Sorting Hat's song and blurted out something that embarrassed all his friends.
"Who the hell is singing that!!!" said Marc.
Harry, Sangeeta, Ron, Hermione, Mary and Rachel all kicked marc as hard as they could.
"What, all I wanted to know, was who the hell was singing that song with a voice that sounds like an old man's?"
A few seconds later marc finally realized that a couple thousand eyes were upon him AND his six friends who everyone else probably thought were as stupid as Marc.
"Please come up to the stool to be sorted when your name is called."
".. Marc Stupeid." Marc walked up to the stool as quietly as he could, avoiding eye contact with everyone.
"Well let's see, this one is a little unusual but I'll have to place him in - GRYFFINDOR!" The Gryffindor house table threw out in cheers for the unusual (dumb) newcomer.
".. Harry Potter." When Harry's name was called there were gasps, ohhs and ahhs. Harry walked to the Sorting Hat with a quickened pace. He took a seat on the stool to prepare to be sorted.
"Not Slytherin, not Slytherin." Said Harry. Slytherin was the house no one wanted to be in except those who were selfish and cruel.
"Not Slytherin ahy, why not Slytherin?" "You could do great things in Slytherin."
"Not Slytherin, not Slytherin."
"Well then I'll just have to put you in - GRYFFINDOR!!"
The Gryffindor table threw their arms in cheer and was a tremendous amount of applauding.
".. Ron Weasely." Ron walked up to the stool almost tripping over students' feet.
"Another Weasely ahy, well it would seem wrong to put you in any other house than - GRYFFINDOR!"
Ron's two brothers Fred and George cheered their hardest for their little brother.
".. Hermione Granger."
"Okay, you can do this, don't fall it will be fine." Hermione said to herself.
"She really is mental!" Rachel said under her breath.
"Don't fall, just sit on the stool."
"Brains and beauty, very unusual now a days." "You'll just have to be placed in - GRYFFINDOR!"
".. Sangeeta Paris." Sangeeta walked as slow as she could, not wanting this moment to come.
"Okay, just be yourself."
Sangeeta was about to sit on the dredded stool ans make a fool of herself at the same time.
"Hullo hat, isn't it a beautiful day today?" "Opps, not day, I mean what a beautiful night it is!" " Ha, Ha, Hah!"
"Let me get this over with - GRYFINNDOR!"
The Gryffindor crowd exploded in cheers with confused looks on their faces.
".. Draco Malfoy." The whit-blonde haired boy walked up to the stool with style, as Rachel would put it.
"SLYTHERIN!!"
The Slytherin table roared with cheers.
".. Rachel Crane." Rachel walked up to the stool trying to pretend not to look at Draco.
"Please Slytherin, please Slytherin."
"You say Slytherin?"
Rachel's cheeks turned a bright pink.
" But I want to put you in - GRYFINNDOR!!!"
Marc, Sangeeta, Hermione, Ron and Harry had a relieved look on their faces, they would have been devastated of Rachel was STUPID enough to separate from her best friends.
".. Mary Darkreign." Finally, Mary was the last student to be sorted. Tired of standing, Mary slowly walked to the Sorting Hat.
"An intelligent one I see." "You would be great in Hufflepuff or even Ravenclaw."
"But I want to be with my friends!" Mary screamed.
"Fine - GRYFFINDOR!!" "You just ruined my day!"
The Gryffindor table roared out in cheers and applauds. There was a rustle of movement as students were turning t view Professor Dumbledore, the headmaster.
"Welcome first years. I hope this year will be a good one," "I have nothing more to say, and I know everyone is very hungry so without delay - LET THE FEAST BEGIN!!"
As these words swam out of Professor Dumbledore's mouth the four house tables bloomed with food. There were mountains of chicken, waterfalls of pumpkin juice, and floods of cakes and biscuits. Ron and Marc pulled the monstrous plate of chicken towards them with great difficulty. Rachel pilled her plate with mashed potatoes while Mary, Sangeeta, Harry and Hermione filled their mouths with pudding and pumpkin juice.
"Hey, Sangeeta what's up with Rachel?!" Fred yelled, over the clatter of forks and knives.
"I don't know, she looks hypnotized!!"
Rachel was staring at the cute boy she liked, Draco Malfoy. Draco was staring back at Rachel while they both stuffed their mouths with potatoes. This was an odd moment for all six who were gawking at the two love birds."
"This is getting bloody creepy." Said an unfamiliar voice. Everyone who had halted their mouth-stuffing turned around t see who was had said that.
"I - I - I'm Nevile Longbottom." "Trevor's my toad."
"Oh, so you're the boy who was going to cry because you thought you lost your stupid toad." Mary said.
The silence that seemed to last forever wad broken as Harry said " Fred, George this is your second year, right?"
"Yeah."
"You guys can do some wicked spells, right?"
"Yeah.'
"Harry, where are you going with this?" Hermione asked, but Harry didn't answer.
"Well can't you guys put a spell on their (Rachel and Draco's) food?"
"Yeah."
"I know where your gong with this Harry!" said George.
Fred and George started whispering amongst themselves.
"SLUGS - FOOD!" yelled George.
Rachel and Draco's mashed potatoes turned into brownish-black, slimy slugs. Rachel finally snapped out of her trans while Slytherin's laughed at Draco whose face was turning a bright red.
"What in the world are you trying to do, kill me!!!" Rachel screamed, while almost strangling the two boys, but Marc and Ron held her back.
Mary, Sangeeta and Harry were trying to disguise their laughs but they had a hard time trying to. Over on the Slytherin table Draco was trying to avoid eye contact with Rachel, while some of his mates pointed and laughed except for two fat boys who were sitting on either side of him. As Sangeeta glanced over to the Slytherin table she actually felt a little sorry for Draco Malfoy. He seemed cruel but she knew deep inside him he had a better, loving side, because she knew he liked Rachel back. Sangeeta liked Harry, but the question was did he like her back?
As the eventful night came to a close, students had started leaving the Great Hall to their dormitories. The time had passed so quickly it seemed they had just only arrived at this magical castle.
"First years follow me this way to your dormitories." Announced the Gryffindor prefect. "Stay close, the staircases like to change."
The seven friends gathered in one group and followed the prefect through the doors of the Great Hall towards a white, marble staircase.
"Please stay close." The prefect announced again and now the newcomers were going to find out why. As the groups of students stepped onto the stairs they started to rotate towards their attachment.
"Wicked!" Ron said.
"Let's throw Ron off!" said Mary happily. "At least then we won't have to hear the word 'wicked' another bloody time!" Mary bellowed.
As Ron and Mary continued bickering all the way to the Gryffindor pass way Rachel and Sangeeta viewed the moving pictures, some who were welcoming them and some who were snoring away. They had reached a portrait of a big, fat lady wearing a pink dress.
"Gryffindors, this is the pink lady, in order to enter into the common room you have to enter a password." "This months password is 'fudged frogs'."
Rachel gave a little jump, which startled Sangeeta. As the prefect said 'fudged frogs' the portrait door swung open revealing a beautiful common room.
"Boys dormitories are to the left and girls are to the right." "Oh yes, and if any of you were wondering, I am Percy Weasely, Gryffindor Prefect."
Everyone turned to look at Ron whose ears were flourishing red.
"Oh and before I leave, I advise you to turn in early, the first days' the worst."
"You never told me you had another brother." said Marc.
"I didn't think it was important." said Ron.
"Good night guys!" said Sangeeta.
"Good night!" said Harry.
Hermione, Sangeeta, Rachel and Mary walked up to their dormitories where their trunks had already been brought up. They changed into their nightwear and made their room seem mire homey. It had just turned 11:30 p.m and the night silence was broken by a scream that almost shattered the stained glass windows in the girls' dormitory.
"What in hell are you screaming for!?" Marry yelled.
"I - I - it's that frog!" Rachel whimpered.
"Oh Rachel, Mary was right," "can't you bloody GROW UP!!" Sangeeta said.
With this Sangeeta got out of bed, marched over to Rachel's bed, grabbed the green toad, Trevor, marched to the door and threw the toad over the balcony.
"Are you happy?!"
Sangeeta walked back to her bed and sat down calmly.
"I'm sorry Rachel, I'm taking my confused anger out on you."
"A change of subject." "I really like Fred and George." said Mary.
"I really, really like Draco." Rachel said.
The name Draco lit another fuse in Sangeeta's mind. During the sorting that night, the Sorting Hat hadn't even touched his head when it placed him in Slytherin. Hoe did the hat pick so quickly? Why didn't it even touch his head?
"Sangeeta, Sangeeta?" "We've been trying to ask a serious question!"
"What is it, I was spaced out for a second."
"Apparently."
"So, what's the question?"
"Who do you like?"
"No - No one!"
"It doesn't sound like no one to me!" snickered Mary.
"Go to sleep, its 12:15 p.m."
"I know who she likes, Harry Potter."
"Didn't you see her on the train?" Rachel said.
"Oh, wait you were in one of your moods!" Rachel laughed.
"Go to sleep will you!" Mary said.
