Chapter 5: The Sorting

The next day Bailey and Remus woke everyone up early to make sure they are breakfast and had everything ready to leave later that morning. After dropping the kids off at Kings Cross Station, Lupin and Bailey apparated to Hogwarts. "I'm glad you decided to teach Arithmacy Bailey. I was estatic when I recieved your owl." Dumbledore said greeting them.

"Thank you Albus. If you'll excuse me I'm going to set up my classroom, and then see Severus." Bailey said hugging Albus and leaving.

"Hi Albus sorry about that, she just foung out that Sirius is teaching here, Harry let Sirius' name slip infront fo the twins, and that they are still married." Remus said shaking Dumbledore's hand.

"Oh, don't worry about it, however this will be a very interesting year." Albus then left for the Great Hall. During the sorting Bailey sat by Snape and Dumbledore while Sirius sat by Remus. "You didn't tell me she was teaching here what made her come?" Sirius asked staring at Bailey.

"Dumbledore asked her now hush I want to watch the sorting." Remus said watching the students walk through the door. Professor McGonagall pulled out the roll of parchment with all of the students names on it. She finally arrived to Abigail and James' name.

"Abigail Smith." McGongall said carefuly not to slip.

"Hm you're a hard preson to place. Gryffindor." The hat yelled. Abigail got up adn say by Hermione and Harry.

"James Smith." McGonagall called the next name.

"Gryffindor!" The hat yelled before touching his head. After the sorting and feast Dumbledore stood up to say his speech.

"Welcome to Hogwarts first years, and welcome back everyone else. Just a few reminders, the Forbidden Forest is off limits to all those who do not want to die a horrible death. The caretaker Mr. Filch would like me to remind you that all pranks are not allowed in the hallways along with an extensive list of other items that is fastened on his door. As you probably have noticed we have three new professors this year, I would like to warn all students that pulling any sort of prank on these professors is not the smartest thing you can do. I am arning you all now that they will handle your parnks with pranks of thier own, and I doubt any of you would like the end up on the end of one of their pranks. Since they only graduated from Hogwarts fifteen years ago they know more about the in and outs then most of you and most of the professors here. With that I bid you goodnight." Albus said dismissing the students.

"Are you serious Albus? We can trick our students?" Bailey asked.

"They need to learn a lesson or two in respect so yes." Albus said leaving the hall.
