Chapter Four:
All of the students went into the great hall for the start of the year feast and the sorting ceremony. Harry still got excited over the ceremony since this was only the third one he had ever watched. Professor McGonagall brought in all of the scared looking first years and the sorting hat started its song:
Last year I warned all you students
About all uniting
You partially listened to me
But still you are dividing
Bold Gryffindor and Ravenclaws
Worked together to triumph
Poor Hufflepuff, they tried to help
But moved with much galumph (a/n: that means too clumsy and not quick enough)
But nobody, they did not try
To trust the Slytherin
They all just assumed with no regret
That they'd be too withering
Now I am giving you advice right now
So please don't ignore me
Otherwise the Hogwarts houses
Will turn into just three
You must find the trusting ones
From each house of four
And learn to trust each other
This may be quite a chore
If perhaps you find an untrusting one
Then act quickly because
That person will betray you
And from they group they will withdraw
I do not mean to scare you
But times, they are not good
I am going to start the sorting now
I hope I'm understood
The hat became silent and like last year the room was quiet for a while since the hat once again left a message within its song. The sorting ceremony then started beginning with Adams, Claire for Hufflepuff and ending with Zeigler, Jeff in Slytherin. Everyone then fell silent for Professor Dumbledore's beginning of the term speech.
"Welcome everyone, please remember that the forbidden forest does not allow trespassers, and Mr. Filch our caretaker has kindly posted a list of revised rules on his door, so you are welcome to look at it. Also, we all know we are in grave times right now, so please everyone be very careful." At this Dumbledore looked at Harry for a split second, "Well I won't let you all wait any longer, let us eat!"
The room immediately started with chatter as food appeared on the tables, Harry helped him self to some roast beef and mashed potatoes.
"Iffint Diss Fooad Moof?" asked Ron with his mouth full.
"Yea, it's really good." said Harry.
After everyone was stuffed Ron and Hermione left to lead the first years to their dorms. Harry was following everyone when Professor McGonagall approached him, "Mr. Potter, the Headmaster wished to speak with you, I trust you know the way to his office, the password is Lemon Drop."
Harry headed towards Dumbledore's office wondering why he had to go there, he also remembered the last time her was there, I really should apologize for breaking his things. Harry got to the stone gargoyle and said the password, he then walked up the stone steps to his office. When he got there he knocked on the door.
"Come in." said Dumbledore's voice, Harry walked into his office and took a seat.
"Ah, Harry, how are you?" said Dumbledore, looking intently at Harry.
"Fine" said Harry looking at the ground, "I am um sorry about breaking your things last year."
"Oh that is no problem, Harry, now did you receive my letter over the summer?"
"Yes."
"We have revised your schedule so Potions is now in it."
"Er, thanks."
"Also, your Occlumency will start tomorrow night along with your tutoring with Professor Snape, and on Tuesday you will have some training with Remus and Alastor."
"Alright."
Dumbledore stared at Harry as if trying to read his thoughts, "Have you discussed the prophecy with anyone yet Harry?"
"Er, no"
"I suggest that you should, I think it will help you deal with it."
"Um, I have to get going, I still have…to unpack my things." It was obvious that Harry was trying to avoid that subject.
"Harry, did you forget, the house elves do all that for you."
"Oh...yea"
"Harry….I know it was hard for you loosing Sirius"
"Oh, I'm fine, it is no big deal." It was way too obvious Harry was lying.
"Well, Harry always remember your friends are always there to talk to and I am too.
"Er, okay thanks."
With that Harry left Dumbledore's office, he hated being but on the spot like that. He went to the common room realizing he didn't know the new password. He stood outside of the common room for about twenty minutes until Ginny came.
"Hi, Harry! What are you doing outside?"
"I don't know the new password."
"Oh, really? It's 'flapperwing', sorry you had to wait so long."
"Oh, it's no problem."
Harry and Ginny walked into the common room and Harry went straight up to his dorm. He quickly put on his pajamas and went to bed; he didn't want to talk to anyone right now. He went to sleep hoping for no nightmares.
*~*~*
A/N: okay that really sucked, I swear I have lost my touch. But I do have to admit that sorting hat song took forever and I think it turned out okay, I don't know how JK writes those, they are a lot of work, haha but I had fun doing it. Err I think I overdid it on Harry, cause I doubt that would ever happen cause yea I don't know it just seems that he is way too sad, but I should just blame myself cause I wrote it, ahh okay well I hope it was okay, nothing that great really happened, and I realized I suck at writing about Dumbledore, he is just so unique and yea, in my opinion anyone who can write with Dumbledore in canon is really good cause I think he is really hard. Okay please R/R, flames always welcome haha
