Chapter 6: The Sorting Hat
"It's not the sky," Jenna told them as they walked into the Great Hall. "The ceiling is enchanted to look like the sky outside. I read it in Hogwarts: A History."
"Hello, I am the Headmistress of Hogwarts, and we, the staff and students, would like to welcome our newcomers," Hermione paused and let the students clap. "Now, I believe that the sorting hat is ready, so I hand the sorting hat the microphone."
Once upon a time,
Four wizards made a truce,
To make a school,
Was their dream.
A few happy years went by,
In which the future shined,
Happiness was everywhere,
Like a gold-filled mine.
Then the clouds grew thick,
And no one could see,
So these fine makers,
Decided to make me,
Rich Slytherin tired and wanted,
To find something more,
So he packed up,
And left feeling poor.
The rest prophesized,
Triplets would come,
One born evil,
And the others shall run.
Take heed in this,
For soon they come,
Quickly they shall rise,
As quickly as the sun.
No one spoke for around three minutes. Hermione broke the silence, "That was song. Well, what are we waiting for? Let the sorting begin!"
"Abbot, Butch…. Hufflepuff."
"Barnes, Samantha…. Ravenclaw."
"Crabbe, Candy…. Slytherin."
"Goyle, George…. Slytherin."
"Granger, Jenna…. Gryffindor."
"Granger, Mandy…. Slytherin."
"Malfoy, Bella…. Slytherin."
"Malfoy, Randy…. Slytherin."
"Snape, Stephan…. Slytherin."
"Timothy, Jordan…. Ravenclaw."
"Richardson, Lance…. Gryffindor."
"Runderson, Raymond…. Hufflepuff."
"Weasley, Brianna…. Gryffindor."
And on the Sorting Hat went.
"Now, let the feast begin!" Headmistress Hermione exclaimed.

Author's Note:
I'm really sorry I took so long to write this chapter. My life is really hectic right now. Some of you may be in school right now, but in New Jersey, we haven't started yet. I'm still not on a schedule or anything, so the beach and horsebackriding puts me a little tight. I mean, I'm at the beach every day from 9 am to 10 pm, plus my mom says I'm too young to work on a normal basis. Shrug>> Please review! Mind you, I didn't order you, I'm begging you... Oh, and I will answer your reviews in the beginning of each chapter. :)
