Chapter Three

The Sorting and The Howler

We walked into the great hall I was terrified I would also tell that Danielle was too. She was standing there digging her nails into my arm. We listened as the A's got sorted then we heard.

James Black.

We watched as James walked up and the hat was placed on his head.

"Ah James Black were to put you I see you're a trouble maker. You are sly you would do well in Slytherin but then again you have lots of courage you are loyal to your friends and would protect them lets see GRYFFINDOR!" The hat yelled. Everyone applauded.

They went through some more people then they got to the F's

Nicolas Flint was the name called out. The hat barley touched his head when it called out SLYTHERIN. The tabled closest to the doors applauded I watched him walk over to it and sit next to the boy who I met in Knockturn ally I think his friend called him Xavier they looked alike I think they may be brothers. They went through some more letters.

Christopher Lupin.

I watched Chris walk up and get sorted into Gryffindor as well there was really no surprise there.

Cassandra Malfoy was called next. A girl with blonde hair and teal eyes walked up the hat was put on her head and she was also sorted into Slytherin. My father would tell me about the Malfoy's and how they were an evil family. The girl on the stage looked young and innocent. I guess looks can be deceiving. She look a seat next to the boy who………ewww………kissed me in Knockturn ally. They also looked alike they must be brother and sister.

Doyle Malfoy was called next that was they other girls brother although he looked nothing like them he had dark hair and the most beautiful silver eyes. The hat took a long time to figure out where to put him but did eventually put him into Slytherin. Oddly enough he didn't look to happy about it he sat down as far away from his brother as possible.

My name was called next the hall feel quite. I had to literally pry Danielle's hands off my arm and when I walked on stage when I got up there I sat down on the stole and the hat was placed on my head.

"Ah Miss. Brenna Potter so nice to finally meet you I see that you will do great things it is all hear in your head you could do well in Slytherin they could help you on your path to greatness but then again what would your friends think you being in Slytherin however you also show great courage so where to put you. You would do well in all houses but I think Slytherin suits you best yes SLYTHERIN." When the hat called that out I felt like I was about to cry. I just sat there until I was told to go join my table what could I do. Oh god my father was going to kill me what would the housemates do to me. I sat down and just closed my eyes willing the tears always then I watched as my friends were called up Alex was sorted into Gryffindor. However when Danielle was called up the weirdest thing happened the hat called out Slytherin I wanted to jump for joy at least I wouldn't be the only one in Slytherin but then again Danielle would have it rough she would be the first Weasley sorted into Slytherin. She sat down next to me.

"I feel like I'm about cry." She said when she sat next to me.

"I know what you mean just close your eyes and think happy thoughts and will the tears away." I told her

Clarisse Zabini was the last person called up.

She was also sorted into Slytherin she sat down next to Cassandra Malfoy. Dumbledore made some announcements about how the Forbidden Forest was as always forbidden he read out a list of things that weren't aloud in the hallways most of which came form Fred and George Weasley's shop. Danielle and I just grinned at each other.

"Now Tuck in" Dumbledore said and with that the food appeared. Danielle and I really didn't eat all that much everyone in the hall kept giving us weird looks including our own table. When we were dismissed from the hall we were taken to the Slytherin common room and told where we were to sleep we had to share the room with Cassandra Malfoy and Clarissa Zabini. We learned a lot about them there really weren't all that bad.

"It really doesn't seem like Slytherin is all that bad." Danielle told me that morning on our way to breakfast.

"I know they all seem perfectly nice."

"Do you remember those guys that were in Knockturn ally?"

"Yeah. Why?"

"Because I was just thinking those are what we make most Slytherins to be like and some probably are I mean we only have gotten a chance to talk to Cassandra and Clarissa."

"You might be right so I suggest we keep our guard up. I mean most of these kids come from families of death eaters and we come from families that fight death eaters." We walked into the great hall and just sat down at the end of the table and when the mail got there an owl landed on the table that had both our names on it. I looked at Danielle and then back that the letter.

"Bren we just got a howler."

"I know what we should do."

"We have to open it."

"I don't want to open it you open it." And Danielle did just that.

BRENNA LILLION POTTER came the voice of her father.

DANIELLE ANNE WEASLEY came the voice of my Uncle Ron Danielle's Father

(a/n just so you don't get confused Ron's voice it's going to me in bold and Harry's voice is going to be in italics.)

HOW COULD YOU TWO GET SORTED INTO SLYTHERIN NO ONE IN OUR FAMILY HAS EVER BEEN SORTED INTO SLYTHERIN.

BRENNA I AM VERY DISSAPOINTED IN YOU. YOU ARE A POTTER AND ARE SURPOSED TO BE IN GRYFFINDOR.

HARRY SHE IS ALSO HALF WEASLEY AND WEASLEYS ARE SURPOSED TO BE IN GRYFFINDOR AS WELL. DANIELLE HOW COULD YOU LET THE HAT DO THIS.

BRENNA YOU MOM IS IN TEARS.

SO IS YOUR MOTHER DANIELLE

WHEN YOU GET BACK FROM SCHOOL YOU HAVE SOME EXPLAINING TO DO.

THAT GOES FOR YOU TOO AS WELL DANIELLE A LOT OF EXPLAINING.

With that the letter burst into flames and practically ate itself. I could tell that Danielle was about to cry so I put my arm around her and lead he out of the hall and back up to our room. I sat her on the bed and just let her cry her eyes out. I tried to put a comforting arm around her and then I started to cry after about 10 minutes we just stopped and looked at each other and started laughing.

"Why did I have a feeling they were going to do something like that?" Danielle asked me

"Because they are over protective fathers who think that Slytherins are cruel and full of hatred."

"I hope that you guys don't really think that of us do you?" came a voice from the doorway we turned around and saw Cassandra and Clarisse standing there. I looked at Danielle who didn't have hate in her eyes.

"No we could never hate you." And with that said we walked over and hugged them.
