Author's Note: The pairing of people can be up to you in this story. Just let me know whom you want and the majority will win. The only thing is that Harry and Ella cannot be paired. You may pair Donovan up with whomever you would like.

Professor Dumbledore's Office

Professor Flitwick walked into the Headmaster's office followed by a young man of about seventeen. "Albus, this young man says that he is a transfer student from Durmstrang. He wasn't sure where to go."

Professor Dumbledore looked up from his desk, "Thank you, I'll take him from here." Professor Flitwick nodded at him and left the office. Dumbledore took that time to look over this new student. He was about 6'2", with a muscular build, strong face, short dark hair and dark eyes; he looked rather determined and yet troubled.

"Hello, Professor. My name is Donovan Silvers." The young man introduced himself.

"Hello, Mr. Silvers. Let's see what house you will be put into, then we will get you set up with some classes. After that, we will go down to the Great Hall." The Headmaster said as he was getting the Sorting Hat down. He sat the hat on Donovan's head and he was sorted into Slytherin. They got his schedule set up, started to leave the office, and met up with Professor Snape and a young girl.

"May I help you, Severus?" "This is an exchange student from Beauxbatons. Her parents decided to send her here this year."

"Okay, Professor. This is Donovan Silvers; he has just been sorted into Slytherin. Please show him to the Great Hall while I take care of this young lady. Thank you, Severus." Dumbledore said and moved to the side to allow the young lady access to the office.

"Hello, Sir. My name is Avariella Knightly. You could call me Ella if you like." Ella said quietly as she brushed her long, wavy, black hair out of her strikingly blue eyes. She was around 5'3", slender, beautiful, and had a delicate, somewhat dainty appearance.

"It is nice to meet you Ella. My name is Professor Dumbledore, and I am the Headmaster here at Hogwarts. We need to get you sorted and set your schedule up."

After about five minutes they were headed down to the Great Hall. She had been sorted into Gryffindor. "I hope you enjoy your time here. If you have any questions do not hesitate to ask for help. Here we are."

Authors Note: I know that the chapters have been short. I am going to try to get better about that. This is my first fanfic on here and all reviews are welcome.
