Chapter Five: Sorting
She walked, staying close to her friend and looking
around. When they got to some stairs there was an old looking witch with
her hair in a bun. She led them to some giant doors and talked to them
about something, she doesn't know what because she wasn't listening. The
witch open the door and lead them to where, she was guessing, the
professors' table. She just looked around then suddenly a hat that was
sitting on a stool in front of them starting to sing. Sing. She smiled,
what else would a good hat do but sing? This was priceless. She didn't
listen to the song but she did pay attention to the banners, an eagle
that says Ravenclaw in front of it, a badger that says Hufflepuff in
front of it, a lion that says Gryffindor on top of it, and a snake that
says Slytherin under it. Slytherin. She smiled at the banner and didn't
even hear the old witch start calling names, only when her name was
called; Bellmore, Amber, last name before first then did she realize it
was over. She walked quickly to the stool and waited, the hat was put on
her head and it started whispering things like, Good mind...very
ambitious...I think I better put you in....SLYTHERIN!! She got off and handed
the hat to the witch, she sat down at the table that was beckoning to her
and saved a seat for her friend.
Other girl
She felt her friend staying close by her and didn't care. They were
stopped by an old, stern-looking witch who led them up some stairs to
some doors. She started talking and she only half listened, something
about Hogwarts and houses. She then opens the doors after she was done
talking and led them to a stool with a hat on it. A hat on a stool, how
boring. She was shocked when it started singing and listens carefully to
its words.
You may not believe I can talk,
But don't judge on what you see.
Things in here are never what they're suppose to be,
Just look at me.
Now I am going to tell you,
Which house you do belong in.
The Ravencalws, all brains and books,
The smartest of the four.
The Hufflepuffs, all loyal and true,
The nicest of the four.
The Gryffindors, brave and bold,
The bravest in the land.
The Slytherins, those cunning folk,
Give it all to be the best.
Now put me on, don't be shy,
Give me a try.
The room stared clapping and only stopped when the
witch started calling out names one at a time to try on the hat. When it
was her friends turn she notice she hadn't been listening but looking at
the banners. She was glad her friend gotten in Slytherin and she knew she
was saving a seat for her. She smiled, her first true friend. She walked
up when her name was called, Sue Chloe, she sat down and the hat was put
on her head. It started talking....Cunning, ambitious, sneaky, fun...only one
house I can put you in.....SLYTHERIN!!!!!
She got off and handed the hat back to the witch and walked to
the Slytherin table. She sat down next to Amber and when it was over they
had a nice feast and a nice chat.
Amber's thoughts: I knew she would be in Slytherin, I had a feeling.
Chloe's thoughts: I'm glad we're both in Slytherin, but I had a feeling
we would have been anyway.
