I don't own Harry Potter.
----------------------------
Now, I guess I could tel you this bit of info. Tom will not be sorted into Hufflepuff. I wouldn't want him killing the sorting hat and himself for that one.

Chapter 9 --------- Sorting
--=================--
Tom followed Ginny into a carriage. They were soon joined by Luna and Collin, Luna was reading a copy of the quibbler upside down, which made Tom's left eyebrow pop up.
"Hey Luna, Collin."Ginny said
'That's the mudblood who I had the basilisk try to kill!'Tom thought
"Hey Gin."Collin said
"Hi Ginev......Ginny."Luna said in a sing song voice
"Who's he?"Collin asked
"My name is Thomas-Marcus Riddly, I just transfered from America."Tom said
"Wicked, I didn't know we got transfers, my name is Collin Creevey."Collin said
"My name is Luna Lovegood, welcome."Luna said
"Thank you."Tom said
"Tom's a prefect too. That's why there are no boy prefects for our year!"Ginny said
"Your a fifth year?"Collin asked
"Yes, why?"Tom asked
"Nothing."Collin said
"Ginny look at this crossword!"Luna said, pulling Ginny across to her side
"It's OK Luna, I'll look at it after class."Ginny said
"OK, I'll lend you the copy then!"Luna said
"Oh thank you."Ginny said
"Oh, I can't wait for the feast!"Collin said
"Me either, oh Tom you have got to see all the food!"Ginny said
"I can't wait, I don't know why, but I feel like I ate nothing."Tom said
"I know what you mean, I think we ate a months supply of candy on that ride."Ginny said
"What house do you want to get sorted into?"Collin asked, changing the subject from food
"Well, er......what house's are you in. I know Ginny is Gryffindor."Tom said
"I'm a fellow Gryff."Collin said
"I'm in Ravenclaw."Luna said, not looking up from the Quibbler
"I am caught between Slytherin and Gryffindor."Tom said, lieing. Slytherin, all the way for him.
"Slytherin?"Luna, and Collin said
"Er......yes. Is this were a mad ax man chops my head off?"Tom asked in sarcasm, which made Ginny laugh
"It's just odd. Most people prefer to stay away from Slytherin. You-Know-Who was in that house they say."Collin said
'My legacy lives on. Well there afraid of me.'Tom thought
"Really."Tom said
"Yeah."Luna said
"Potter is in Gryffindor, right?"Tom asked with disgust
"Yes! Harry's cool."Collin said
"I don't really like him."Tom said
"Why!?!"Collin said
"He threatened me."Tom said
"You must have the wrong Harry Potter."Collin said
"I dont think so."Tom said
"What did you do to get him angry?"Collin asked
"I have no idea. Oh looks like were here!"Tom said pointing out at the school 'Big feast! Food, what more could you ask for?'
"Tom, I'll bring you to Dumbledore."Ginny said, pinning her prefect badge on
"OK. Thank you Ginny."Tom said
"Your welcome."Ginny said
'I wonder if it would be bad to open the chamber, and get a new basilisk for it?'Tom thought
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
Ginny easily got ahead of the crowd of students with Tom. She and Tom walked to Dumbledores office, when Ginny realized she did not know the password.
'What are we waiting for, don't tell me the old fool put a password on this thing.'Tom thought
Ginny and Tom then got frightened, when the statue in front of them started moving, and Albus Dumbledore walked out.
"Hello Miss Weasley, and I am assuming, Mr. Riddly."Dumbledore said
"Hello Professor."Ginny said
"Hello Professor Dumbledore."Tom said
"Well, I am guess you were brought here by Miss Weasley, so you could find out about the sorting situation."Dumbledore said
"Yes Professor."Tom said
"Miss Weasley, you may go to the Great Hall, and also 20 points to Gryffindor for bringing Mr. Riddly here."Dumbledore said
"Thank you professor, good luck in the sorting Tom!"Ginny said
"Bye Ginevra!"Tom said
"Ginny! Call me Ginny!"Ginny said, in a fake angry voice
"Sorry."Tom said 'I will get her to let me call her Ginevra!'
Dumbledore laughed, and then took some lemon drops out.
"Lemon drop?"He asked Tom
"Er.....what?"Tom said with confusion written on his face
"Ah, they are a muggle candy I am quite fond of one. Want one?"Dumbledore said
"Oh, a no thank you sir."Tom said 'Lemon Drops?'
"Ah, well, I think we should hurry up to the Great Hall."Dumbledore said looking at a strange watch
"Sir, how will this sorting work?"Tom asked
"You will be sorted last."Dumbledore said
"Alright."Tom said, following Dumbledore to the Great Hall. 'Last. This is going to be one long wait.'
-=-=-=-=-=-=-
When Tom entered the Great Hall, he saw Ginny waving at him, and Ron and Harry giving him death glares. Then he saw a bunch of students stare at him, and heard some girls giggle. He then watched Professor McGonagal call out names. 'Missed the Sorting Hats speech I guess. Well, that's OK, I'm not on best terms with the stupid hat.' Tom thought.
Tom listened to names get called. He clapped for the new students, along with everyone else, but it was quiet boring. Once and a while he would look to the Gryffindor table, and get smile from Ginny. Then he would look at the Slytherin table, and get a bunch of sneers from the happy bunch there. 'Ah, good old Slytherin team spirit.' Tom thought with sarcasm.
Tom soon found that he was behind five people on the line. To his dismay, the 5 ahead of him took the longest to get sorted, and he was at the point of taking the hat away, and just putting it on his head. After those five kids got sorted, (3 Hufflepuffs, 1 Slytherin, 1 Gryffindor) Tom walked up to the stool. But he did not get the hat placed on his head yet. Dumbledore walked away from the table's head, and stood behind the hat, and said.
"Students, I would like you to welcome our new transfer student from, America. His name is Thomas-Marcus Riddly. He will be attending the year level, 5. I would like you all to treat him with the, respect you treat other students. Well, I fear that Mr. Riddly must want to get sorted now, so I will leave him to be sorted."Dumbledore said, with the twinkle in his eye that Tom hated
'I think Dumbledores main focus in life is to make mine misery.'Tom thought
"Mr. Riddly Please sit on the stool as the younger students have."McGonagal said
Tom nodded, and sat in the place the hat had been placed. Then he felt the hat be placed on his head, he half expected it to cover his eyes, which it did not do. He wait a few seconds, and then the hat started to speak to him.
'I know I have sorted you before.' The hat said
'And so you have.'Tom thought
'Over 50 years, and yet you are still 16.'The hat said to Tom
'Er.......can we please get on with this. I'm starving.'Tom thought
'Alright. I see a lot of ambition, just as last time. Cunning. Now were to place you. Ravenclaw? No.... I also see braver........'
'I refuse to go into Gryffindor!'Tom's mind yelled
'Ah, but you would be great in Gryffindor.'The hat said
'I'm Salazar's heir, just think of the dishonor it would bring to my family!'
'Ah yes, how could I forget. Hm.....Maybe Hufflepuff will be the house I place you in, since you cut me off.' The hat said
'Anything but Hufflepuff! Are you sure you were Gryffindors hat. I think you would have been Salazar's hat. If you would spite me, and put me into Hufflepuff.'Tom thought
'No, you don't belong there. Now, Ravenclaw would be a good place. But Slytherin is your greatest place to be. You would make true friends there, but also in Gryffindor. Maybe the rivalry would end if Salazar's heir were to be placed in Gryffindor........'The hat said
'I will never go into Gryffindor!'Tom thought
'So now the main question, will I put you into Slytherin, or, will I place you into Gryffindor.'
'If The four founders were sorting me, then Salazar would place me into the family house.'Tom thought
'Are you so sure about that?'The hat asked
'Yes.'Tom thought
'He would have disowned you, since you are in fact a half-blo.......'The hat started
'Say it, and you will find your self missing thread, and you will find yourself in a fireplace!'Tom thought
'How about this then. Slythindor?'The hat asked irritated
'Never!'Tom's thoughts screamed
'Theres the spirit!' The hat said
'What do you mean?'Tom thought
'You belong in.......' The hat started
'Wait, spying on Potter would be easier in Gryffindor, Hat, Gryffindor! Please!'Tom thought
'Gryffindor, are you sure you want to go there?'The hat asked
'yes. it would make things easy!'Tom said
'Then you will be in...............'The hat said
'Thank you, Hat!'Tom thought, now everything would be easier
"SLYTHERIN!"The hat screamed
'NO STUPID HAT, GRYFFINDOR, YOU JUST RUINED IT! IT WOULD HAVE BEEN SO EASY!'Tom's mind screamed
'You wanted Slytherin..............'The hat said, as it was taken from his head
Tom stood up and went to walk away. But was stopped, when Ginny ran up to him.
"Tom, Professor Dumbledore told me to give you this."Ginny said, handing Tom a prefects badge
"I thought a house represented was giving this to me."Tom said
"Oh, Dumbledore told me to give it."Ginny said
"Well, thank you Ginny. I guess I better go sit down, some look like they will kill you over there."Tom said
"If Draco Malfoy and his friends go to hurt me, I just have a bit of black mail, they know not to bother me."Ginny said "See you later then."
"Bye."Tom said walking to the Slytherin table. Then he got a few "Welcome to Slytherin house."and then "Why were you hanging around the Weaslette?"
'This will be one long year.....'Tom thought. Then he turned his attention to Dumbledore who had his normal speech. Then the food appeared, and Tom dug in.
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
Ginny walked with the other Gryffindor prefects to the common room. The portrait of the Fat Lady welcomed all the Gryffindors, and then the oldest prefect girl in Gryffindor gave the password to the younger years. 'Fearless Lion.'
After getting the password, Ginny went to go to sleep. She took out a bottle of red ink, and quill, then the paper Tom gave her. Then she started to write to him.
Hi Tom!
she waited a few minutes. then the green appeared
Hello Ginny. How was your feast?
Very good Tom, on the train ride, i met this really nice Slytherin!
Really?
Yes! He's a transfer from America
What's his name?
Thomas-Marcus, but he prefers to be called Tom
What's his last name?
Riddly. You have similar last names, actually, they are practically the same.
That's very, very strange. So he is a Slytherin?
Yep. He's really cool, we both like the same snacks, and on the train ride he got a Salazar Slytherin card from a Chocolate frog!
Those are hard to get
I know!
So, he was Slytherin?
No, he got sorted into it. He seemed a bit mad about it, even though he said he should go in there since he hates Harry.
Maybe thats a characteristic thats need to get into Slytherin these days.
Funny Tom. Well i have to go, everyones coming up now. Night!
Good night Ginny.
Ginny put her stuff away, and made sure no one saw the paper. Then she fell asleep after changing into pajamas.
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
Tom sat in his bed, '5th year, again.' was his main thought. He had a hard time getting away from the curious Slytherins. They were really not treating him as well as when he was originally at school, since he was hanging out with Ginny. 'If only they knew who I was. Maybe I should owl my older self, this should be fun.' Tom thought, then he gave a cold laugh. First classes in the morning, and class lists, was Toms last thought before sleep. Then he thought 'Made an impression on Ginevra.'
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
YAY! one more chappie until 10!
I had so much fun with this one.
Tom and Ginny may not be in the same house, but I have plans. I am now thinking of classes for Gryffindor and Slytherin to have together. But the thing I cant wait for are the Holidays!
But right now, I shall focus on first day of classes.
I also drew a pic for the last lines of the last chappie. I also found that I don't like drawing Tom with spiked up hair...........
Now, my question is, should I have a Hogsmeade weekend soon? yes or no?
I could see it now, Tom inviting Ginny, and Ron going to sock Tom in the eye. (idea! lol)
Well, thank you for reading chappie 9, until next time....
