"Good evening. After a leisurely summer the students have returned for another year here at Hogwarts. Some are here to start the rest of their lives." Greeted Professor Dumbledore.
"Now for the sorting. First years follow me please." Said Professor McGonagall.
Harry, Ron, and Hermione watched the proceedings quietly. All of them silently taken a back by the small number of new students. The group numbered only forty students. Furthering their surprise was how the group had been sorted. Twenty in Gryffindor and nineteen in Slytherin. None had been sorted into Hufflepuff or Ravenclaw. An odd thing in itself.
Soon only one person had yet to be sorted. A young woman, who looked like a Weasley and stood like a Malfoy. Her skin was deathly pale she had no freckles. Her hair was like fire itself touching the backs of her calves. Her eyes were wondrous. Not just blue, gray, or some other color. Her eyes were a rainbow, no a riot of colors. Professor Dumbledore stood from his seat.
"Ladies and Gentlemen, this is Sara Riddle. Voldemort's only living family, thus his heir. Sara has made a critical decision to reside her and help in the war against her father. Treat her as you would any of you house and year mates."
Harry eyed the girl again. She stood shaking violently. Hermione had also noticed this and whispered very softly to Harry.
"She's frightened. She thinks we'll all shun and hate her. That we won't give her a chance."
Harry nodded. Sara looked extremely shaken. Ron on the other hand had just stared at her. Not hearing anything Dumbledore had said. Harry laughed and said to Ron.
"You're drooling there buddy."
Ron snapped out of his trance and looked sheepishly at Harry.
"Sorry, it's just that she's so, so."
"Gorgeous? Spellbinding?"
Harry felt the same way Ron did. There was just something about her. Dumbledore spoke again.
"Sara will be sorted now and will attend the 5th year classes with her house mates. Make her feel welcome in whatever house she is sorted into."
