Chapter 3

Then the train stopped...
" Hey, the train stopped."
" We're here."
" What about our trunks?"
" Oh, don't worry. They'll be taken up to the castle any way." Kagome then took Shippo, and went out side.
" First years first years this way!" Called a woman.
" I wonder who that is?" Before Kagome could go with Harry and the others She was stopped by the woman.
" Your Kagome Higurashi right?"
" Yes."
" Then you come with me to the boats."
" Boats?" Kagome then followed as told to a gigantic flack of boats, and crossed a large lake. Kagome starred up in awe at the huge castle in front of her
" This is Hogwarts?"
" Yes."
" Wow, Kagome it's huge!" Kagome then noticed she was the only person her age in the boats.
" Welcome to Hogwarts." Then the boats docked.
' Stairs stairs and more stairs.'
" Children you're about to be sorted into four houses. I trust you know them. Now follow me." The woman led them up to a pair of the biggest doors Kagome has ever seen. " Now when I lead you through these doors you will be silent. Oh Miss Higurashi." She said walking over to her." I am Professor McGonagall. I would like you to wait out side these doors until your name is called."
The door opened from what she could she the room was huge; the ceiling was odd. Kagome tried to get a better look but they shut the doors. Then strange enough some one started singing.
In times of old when I was new
And Hogwarts barely started
The founders of our noble school
Thought never to be parted:
United by a common goal,
They had the selfsame yearning,
To make the worlds best magic school
And pass along their learning.
"Together we will build and teach!"
The four good friends decided
And never did they dream that they
Might someday be divided,
For were there such friends anywhere
As Slytherin and Gryffindor?
Unless it was the second pair
Of Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw?
So how could it have gone so wrong?
How could such friendships fail?
Why, I was there and so I can tell
The whole sad, sorry tale.
Said Slytherin," We'll teach just those
Whose ancestry is purest."
Said Ravenclaw," We'll teach those whose
Intelligence is surest."
Said Gryffindor, " We'll teach all those
With brave deeds to their name,"
Said Hufflepuff, "I'll teach the lot
And treat them just the same."
These differences caused little strife
When first they came to light,
For each of the four founders had, A house in which they might (the song is kinda long so I just skip ahead)
There was a long silence then McGonagall started to call names. " Abercrombir, Euan."
" GRIFFINDOR!"
" Zeller, Rose."
" RAVENCLAW!"
" Now before we start to eat we have a special stortie(?) She is from Japan on special program. She will be starting as a fifth year under circumstances you need not know. Higurashi, Kagome."
The doors opened to rival a huge room full of people. She walked forward; all around she could hear things like; she's hot. Wow. What is that thing on her shoulder? It's so cute. Kagome finally reached the stool in the front. The professor motioned for her to sit down, and place the hat on her head. And she did so. The hat felt strange on her head; it wasn't like other hats. She could sense it.
" GRYFFINDOR!" Kagome looked over to the table that was cheering the loudest. ' That must be the table all the Gryffindors sit at.'
" Hey, Kagome over here!"
" Oh, hi guys. "
" Kagome this is Fred and George my older twin brothers."
" Hello."
" Hello in deed."
" Fred!"
" What?"
" What's that on your shoulder."
" I'm Shippo."
" Shippo? What are you?"
" I'm a fox."
" You don't look like one."
" A demon fox." Suddenly all the platters and plates were filled with food.
" Do they have Oden?"
" Ermmmm. What's oden?"
" It's a Japanese dish. Do you think food is the same all around the world?"
" Just say it to your plate."
" Say it to my plate?"
" Yeah."
" But, my.."
" It's magic."
" Oden." Kagome commanded to her plate. Next there was oden on it. Kagome just sat there for a few minutes starring at her plate. " Kagome what's wrong?"
" I don't know how to eat with anything other than my hands, or chopsticks."
" Just turn the fork and spoon up side down, and us then like chopsticks."
" Great idea Hermione." Then Dumbledore spoke up.
" First years ought to know that the forest in the grounds is out of bounds- and a few older students ought to know that too." Kagome could see Harry, Ron, and Hermione exchange smirks. " Mr.Filch, the caretaker, has asked me, for what he tells me is the four hundred and sixty-second time, to remind you all that magic is not permitted in the corridors between classes, nor are a number of things, all of which can be checked on the extensive list now fastened to Mr.Filch's door.
We have two changes in staffing this year. We are very pleased to welcome back Professor Grubbly-Plank, who will be taking Care of Magical Creatures; lessons until our real substitute arrive. We are also delighted to introduce Professor Umbridge, our new Defense against the Dark Arts teacher."
There was a round of polite but fairly unenthusiastic applause during which Harry, Ron, and Hermione exchanged slightly panicked looks. " The tryouts for the house Quidditch teams will take place on the--"
" Hem, hem." Then the Umbridge woman stood up. She looked like a frog her brother once had. It got ran over by a horse on her cousin's farm. She also wore a pink fluffy cardigan. Dumbledore looked taken aback as she stood up. " Thank you headmaster for those kind words of welcome. Well it is lovely to be back at Hogwarts, I must say. And to see such happy little faces looking up at me. I'm sure we will all get to be good friends."
She spoke again, but Kagome didn't listen. She was thinking about all her friends. Then Ron called out.
" Hey, hey you lot Midgets!"
Welllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll did you like it. Push the box and review. And thank you so much to all those who reviewed so far! Coming soon Chapter 4 who is the real substitute for Care of Magical creatures? Is Inu coming back? Where is Shippo going to sleep? In a GIRLS dormitory? Who would punish the world with that pink cardigan? Next Chapter!!
