I don't own Harry Potter!
Ok Ok I promised a longer chapter and here it is!
Keep up the reviews!
September 1st rapidly approached, and Albus was busy preparing the new schedules, for those few select Royal students that would end up in the Merlin House.
September 1st
Great Hall
The sorting of first years had just finished, and the students kept peeking over the new table that was positioned right under the High Table of the teachers as if it was a replica. No one was sitting there, it was completely empty but it had a glow around it, that only certain students could see, only certain students could feel the pull to sit at this table.
Shortly after everyone calmed down Albus stood.
"First off our new DADA teacher, Professor Lupin has kindly come back to us. During is illness each month, Professor Dominik will be teaching. Many of you are probably wondering what the point of the point of this table is, there is to be a new house here at Hogwarts. The 6th years shall be resorted and some will be assigned to the House of Merlin. So if the 6th year students would please step forward." Announced Albus
"Bones, Susan."
"House of Merlin!" Shouted the Hat as the once Hufflepuff sat down she was the first and only Hufflepuff to be resorted that evening.
"Boot, Terry."
"House of Merlin!" Screamed the Hat as the once Ravenclaw also became the only Ravenclaw to be resorted
"Brown, Lavender."
"House of Merlin!" Called the Hat as the first Gryffindor to be resorted sat on the stool.
"Granger, Hermione."
"House of Merlin!" Called the hat as the second Gryffindor, and the first of the Golden Trio was lost.
"Malfoy, Draco."
"House of Merlin!" Calmly stated the hat as the Slytherin Prince became no more.
"Parkinson, Pansy."
"House of Merlin!" Shouted the Hat the first female Slytherin had been lost.
"Potter, Harry."
"House of Merlin!" Shouted the Hat with such force that it almost knocked itself off Harry's head, as the 2nd of the Golden Trio was lost
"Weasley, Ronald."
Everyone was sure he would join his friends in this new House of Merlin but,
"GRYFFINDOR!" Shouted the hat as Ron looked shocked at his best friends and made his way back to his own table with a slight frown on his face.
This would be the end of the Golden Trio.
"Zabini, Blaise."
"House of Merlin!" Sang the hat as the former Slytherin plopped on the stool
"Well now! With the sorting complete, niddle bit and butter." Smiled the Headmaster, a wondering look upon his face
Dinner at the House of Merlin table was a tense affair, the had the Gryffindors clumped together, and the Slytherins slumped together, then in the middle of them was a lone Ravenclaw and a lone Hufflepuff who where both thinking,
'This is gunna be a Loooonnnngggg year.'
Soon the food disappeared, and all the tables but Merlin stood and left the Great Hall.
"You 8 are the chosen ones. I can not explain it all to you at this point. For that I am sorry. But please you are a new house, you must bring honor to your selves, Merlin students will not receive points, for you wont be able to win the house cup, there aren't enough of you for your own Quidditch team so those who where on their other house teams may keep their positions. I would not deny you that right. Now this is Professor Orion Dominik, he will be your head of house, should you have any problems, or questions you may go to him. Now lets find your rooms." Smiled Albus with that annoying twinkle in his eye.
After a 5 minute walk
"Students I welcome you to the Founder's Hall. You say the password to either the Basilisk or the Gryffin and you will be allowed enterance. The pass word is the Chosen Ones. Please do not forget it." Welcomed the Headmaster
They walked in, and where awed by the amount of glamour that was in this place.
"There are many fascinating things in the place, but I believe you are all tired and wish to sleep, up the stairs, you each have you own rooms, which will only open to you and those you chose, though if not you they must knock first and ask permission. Your names are on the door. Good night." Stated Professor Dominik as he and the headmaster walked out of the Founder's Hall.
The Slytherins went up the stairs first, and found on the left hand side 3 similar doors, the first, had a strange rune on the door and underneath in black was Pansy Parkinson, the second door had silver writing, with a strange rune, and the name Draco Malfoy underneath it the 3rd door, was the same, but the writing was a different rune, and name both in green writing Blaise Zabini. The next to go to their rooms where the single house ones. The forth door on the left was another rune and name in brown it was Susan Bones. The fourth door on the right was, had the symbol and name in gold, Terry Boot.
The Gryffindors sat in the common room.
"Wow can you believe we are in a different house?" Asked Lavender
"Ya, I've never head of the House of Merlin. And the Founder's Hall was said to have been lost when the last of the founders died." Stated Hermione as she began lecture mode
"Well I am going to head to bed good night." Smiled Lavender as she went up stairs, she passed 2 slytherin doors before she came to her own on across the hall from one Blaise Zabini, this door to had a symbol and writing with the name Lavender Brown in royal blue.
Common Room
"I cant believe Ron wasn't sorted here with us." Exclaimed Hermione
"I know what you mean. Did you see the look he gave us though?" Asked Harry
"Ya he didn't look to happy." Sighed Hermione
"Come on lets go to sleep and deal with it in the morning." Stated Harry they walked up the stairs,
"Good night Moine."
"Night Harry."
Harry entered the first door on the right, he stared at the symbol for a little bit and the Harry Potter in gleaming white, shrugged his shoulders and entered his room.
Hermione also stared at her rune, she thought she had an idea of where she had seen that rune before but then thought she must need sleep, as she stared at her own name in blood red, Hermione Granger, and then confused and upset and not understanding she entered the room.
