Setsuna rushed down the halls Usagi at her heels.
"What exactly are we doing?" asked Usagi.
"I'm taking you to be sorted!" said Setsuna.
"Sorted in to what?" asked Usagi.
"Into a house!" answered Setsuna. "Your house is where you go to be with other people who are like you. You will share a room with girls from your house. When you are not in class you will spend most of your time in your house common room." explained Setsuna.
"Ok." said Usagi as they reached a set of huge wooden doors.
"Ready?" asked Setsuna. Usagi nodded. Setsuna pushed the doors open.
"Wow! whispered Usagi looking into the room that was lit by hundreds of candles.
"This is the great hall." said Setsuna. As Usagi walked in she became aware that everyone was looking at her. She nervously looked around. There were hundreds of kids seated at 4 long tables and there was one table at the front where a few adults sat. What really amazed Usagi about this huge room was that the ceiling looked like the sky outside.
"Ah here they are." said Dumbledore standing up. "If I could have your attention please. This is a new student at Hogwarts. Her name is Usagi Tsukino. She will be in 5th year. Due to special circumstances she was allowed in this school in the middle of the year. Miss Tsukino if you will please come to the front you will be sorted into your house." Usagi nervously began to walk up to the front. She almost tripped a few times, her legs weren't working very well. They just didn't want to seem to move very much. When she finally reached the front Setsuna went over to the staff table and took a seat next to a woman wearing dark green robes with her hair tied up in a bun. Now Usagi felt really alone up infront of everyone.
"Please sit." said Dumbledore placing a stool infront of her. Usagi sat down on the stool. Dumbledore placed a hat over Usagi's head.
"Hmmmmmm." said a voice echoing in her mind. Usagi jumped when she heard it. "You would fit in with Hufflepuff nicely." said the voice. "Although you are very brave." said the voice "You've risked your life quite a few times for your loved ones. You would do well in Gryffindor. Tough decision." said the voice.
"Who are you?" asked Usagi.
"I am the sorting hat. I determine which house you will be in." said the hat. "Now please let me concentrate. You aren't an easy one to place. Hmmm....... You certainly have the personality for Hufflepuff but your actions say otherwise. You are a confusing one. Let me take a minute to think about this." said the hat. A few seconds later the hat said. "I have come to a decision. I hope it's the right one."
'Me too.' thought Usagi.
"GRYFFINDOR!" Yelled the hat. Usagi heard applause. The hat was lifted off her head. Usagi turned to Dumbledore.
"Now what do I do?" asked Usagi.
"Go to that table over there." said Dumbledore pointing to one of the tables.
"OK." said Usagi walking over to the table. Usagi sat down by a girl with red hair and bright green eyes.
"That's all for now." said Dumbledore. "You may resume your dinner." and so they did.
For a few minutes no one talked to Usagi. She sat silently eating some chicken until she heard the girl next to her speak to her.
"Hi." said the girl pushing some of her red hair out of her green eyes. "My name is Lily Evans." she said kindly.
"Hi. Nice to meet you." said Usagi. "What year are you in?" asked Usagi.
"5th." answered Lily smiling.
"Me too!" said Usagi excitedly.
"I'm in 5th year too." said a voice from behind them. "All right Evans?" Usagi turned around to see 4 boys. The first one (The one who had spoken to them) had jet black hair that was extremely messy. The second one was gorgeous! He had dark hair and a handsome face. The third one was short and a little chubby. He didn't really seem to fit in with the other boys. The fourth one looked like he fit in better with the other two boys but he was looking rather tired. He had a badge pinned to the front of his robes that said: 'Prefect'
"Leave me alone, Potter!" said Lily coldly. The boy with messy black hair grinned.
"You know you can just call me James." he said coolly. "Anyways I didn't come here to talk to you." said James. "I came to talk to the new girl."
"I don't know why she would want to talk to YOU but here she is." said Lily gesturing to Usagi.
"Hi." said James ruffling his hair with his right hand.
"Hi." said Usagi.
"I'm James Potter. This is Sir-"
"We can introduce ourselves." said the gorgeous boy with dark hair. "My name is Sirius Black." Usagi blushed and nervously waved to him.
'He is so handsome!' thought Usagi.
'I'm Reamus Lupin." said the boy that looked tired. Usagi nodded at him.
"I'm Peter Pettigrew." said the short and chubby one.
"Hi. I'm Usagi."
"Are you foreign?" asked Reamus.
"Yes. I'm Japanese." said Usagi. Before anything else could be said a boy with a badge pinned to his robes that said 'Head Boy' came over to them.
"Hello." he said.
"Hi." said Usagi.
"I'm the head boy, Ben Garin. Dumbledore has told me to find someone to show you around. Reamus since your a prefect I am going to ask you. Are you willing to do it?" asked Ben.
"Of course he is. We'll all show Usagi around." said James pointing to the three boys standing next to him.
"Good. I'll be seeing you then." said Ben as he walked away.
"Well I guess we'll be showing you around." said James.
"What exactly are we doing?" asked Usagi.
"I'm taking you to be sorted!" said Setsuna.
"Sorted in to what?" asked Usagi.
