Chapter 18: The Sorting
Disclaimer: If you've seen it, I don't own it.
Previously:
"Draco Potter." She called. The two girls helped him to the stool and sat him down.
"Draco is not a first year but a sixth year student that needs to be resorted due to special circumstances." McGonagall said simply as she placed the sorting hat on his head.
"Oh back again are we. Ah but your mind is not tampered with this time. This time I trust you will let me do as I will. Lets see you are hurt because of your bravery and foolhardiness much like your brother. There is intelligence there as well though. You have a very good mind. And loyalty oh you are loyal and true to your brother and his friends. Difficult but your destiny and your actions tell me to put you in ..."
"GRYFFINDOR!" the sorting hat yelled to all present. Snape seemed angry that there was another lion in the group of sixth years.
Draco stood up unsteadily. He stumbled over to where Harry and his friends sat. Harry stood and helped him into a chair where they watched the rest of the sorting. "Adams, Eva"
"Gryffindor"
"Bones, Robert"
"Ravenclaw"
"Bode, Tyler"
"Hufflepuff"
"Chang, Li"
"Gryffindor"
"Clark, Emilia"
The young girl (who was obviously the smallest in her year) skipped up to the stool not the least bit frightened of the sorting. She grinned sweetly at Professor McGonagall as she put the hat on her head. A few seconds later the hat sounded a loud Gryffindor to the school. McGonagall tried to keep from smiling.
"Clark, Natalie"
She was not nearly as bouncy as her sister but instead almost graceful. After a moment the young girl was put into Ravenclaw.
"Denar, Michael"
"Slytherin"
"Edwa, Frank"
"Hufflepuff"

(That was exhausting and rather annoying.)
After the last first year had taken his seat, Dumbledore waved his hands and the food appeared. Draco ate some but not nearly as much as usual. When everyone was done the food was cleared and Dumbledore stood to give his yearly speech.
"Welcome back to all of you returning this year and to the new first years welcome to Hogwarts. This year has not started out right but I can hope that it will get better. First years, as well as some of the other students, (he looked straight at the group of Gryffindors) should note that the Dark Forest is off limits. Now then there are a few other things I must discuss. If anyone was injured and not attended to during the attack this morning, I ask that you report to the hospital wing as soon as I dismiss you. Second, there will be Ministry Aurors wandering the school at all hours as well as some other trusted witches and wizards for your safety. To be sure that you are not suspected of sneaking around to break rules, any person caught wandering the halls after hours will be brought to me for punishment. The Defense Against the Dark Arts Professor for this year is Professor Tonks. She is an auror for the ministry that has agreed to teach for the year. With that said, Prefects lead your houses to the dormitories, Heads please lead any injured to the hospital wing."
Draco stood, still a little wobbly but well enough to walk (or so he thought).
They were halfway up the stairs when Draco forgot about the trick stair and got stuck. He fell and hit his head knocking himself back out. Harry shook his head and asked Ron to help with Draco.
Ron hauled the boy up and helped Harry carry him to the Hospital Wing. After listening to Madam Pomrey tut at them for not bringing him sooner the boys escaped into the hall. They were caught two minutes later.
"What are you boys doing down past hours? Never mind you know he said anyone. Come come." Professor Flitwick said grabbing the two boys elbows and herding them to the Headmasters office.
Dumbledore looked up from his reading when the boys entered. "In trouble already?" Dumbledore commented putting his book down.
Flitwick left to continue to patrol the halls.
"Sir we weren't out of bed on purpose. See on the way up to the dormitories Draco fell through the trick step and hit his head. We took him to the Hospital Wing and we were just on our way back to the tower." Harry explained.
"I guess I will let you off this time. On another note, I would like to thank you for saving my granddaughters on the train this morning. They told their grandma about it and she is thankful as well. Of coarse we noticed that they now follow you about." Dumbledore smiled at the way the girls were following Harry almost everywhere.
"Granddaughters? You're married sir?" Ron was confused.
"Yes. I don't want it getting around though." Dumbledore stated not bothering to clarify.
He sent the two boys back to Gryffindor Tower where Hermione was waiting. "What took you two so long?" she demanded.
"Flitwick caught us on the way back and took us to Dumbledore."
"You two still insist on getting into trouble all the time."
A/N: I was going to write more and post later, but when I opened my inbox this morning there was 14 reviews. All of them for Brothers; demanding an update. So here you go. Enjoy and thanks for the reviews!!!
