Heyy guys! Howzya doin?

Just a reviewer reply: Hermione was wearing the clothes that she was wearing when she left her house: black-and

grey camouflage trousers, blood red boob tube, skull and crossbones choker, belly-bar and earrings.

I still don't own anything to do with Harry potter

"Hello and Welcome back again

It's nice to see you all

Faces of new and old

Are still lining the hall

Onto the business first

I hope you do not mind

I'm going to look inside your head

And see what we can find

It's necessary I'll have you know

Because I need to see

Where you will go when you are here

And where you're friends will be

There was a time, long long ago

When this school was shiny and new

There were no cracks along the hall

And the cobwebs were tidy and few

Cheerful Salazar Slytherin

And smart young Ravenclaw

Along with bubbly Hufflepuff

And good old Gryffindor

They decided to make up a school

Of men and women alike

But (unfortunately) anything else

Should really take a hike

Ravenclaw took all the smart

Gryffindor took strong and bold

Slytherin took sly and sleek

Hufflepuff took them all

Nowadays they are not here

To split you into four

But I am on your head instead

And smarter than before

You cannot escape from my spying

I can see right in your mind

To the box where all your hidden,

And secret talents reside

I can tell where you should be

And I will tell you now

When all you small folk put me on

And see what I have found

Now as I cant think of any more

I'm running out of rhymes

I'll end with a traditional

Song that is of mine

There's nothing hidden in your head

The sorting hat can't see

So try me on and I will tell you

Where you ought to be!"

The hall clapped as the hat took a bow then fell silent. Dumbledore stood up and spread his arms wide.

"Welcome, welcome, to another year at Hogwarts. Now, I usually say a few words before the feast and save the

speeches for later, but there has been some unfortunate business and I may not be able to return before that time, so;

Mr Filch has asked me to remind you (yet again) that he has added some more items to the list of things banned from

Hogwarts. As this list no longer fits on his door it is now hanging in the entrance hall for all to see. I am also told to

remind that nothing from Weasley's Wizard Wheezes is allowed in, although I doubt that that will be of matter this year.

Which leads me onto our next subject, staff appointments. Our New Defence against the dark arts Teacher is not-so-new

for some of our older pupils. I am pleased to announce that Mr Remus Lupin is returning to his old post of DADA

professor. Welcome back Mr Lupin"

There was a large burst of applause from the hall, mainly the older Gryffindor students as Lupin stood up and half-bowed to his name. Hermione laughed to see that Harry and Ron had huge grins on their faces, and that Seamus was paling slightly, the word 'boggart' forming on his lips.

"Earlier this year, there was a wizard-wide survey on health and fitness. It seems that our wizard kind is becoming lazy, and this may jeopardize our future. So the ministry has forced- I mean persuaded- the school governors to include Physical Education in our school regime. Some of you may know what P.E is, and unfortunately, Quidditch is not included."

"Crap" Harry muttered under his breath, and many of the students raised by muggles looked apprehensive.

"As this is being included in our schooling schedule, we need a teacher and I am glad to say that two have come forward out of the woodwork. I am pleased to announce that our new Physical Education Teachers will be, Mr Fred and Mr George Weasley. Welcome back! "

There was a very loud burst of applause and cheers as people craned their necks to see the famous twins at the table. The applause scattered and died quickly when they realised no-one was there.

"Unfortunately they could not be here for the opening feast as there has been an unfortunate explosion in their shop-"

"It's called mum." Ron added.

"- so let the feast, Begin!"

"Scooby-doo."

"Excuse me?"

"It's the password."

"I guess you chose it?"

"Who do you think? McGonagall?"

Dean grinned as they stepped through the archway into the head-suite. The room they entered was the exact replica of the Gryffindor common room, except the doors said "Hermione Granger" and "Dean Thomas" instead of "Girls dorms" and "Boys dorms". Hermione screamed and jumped up and down, clapping her hands.

"You like it then?"

"No, I hate it. What do you think." Hermione stuck her tongue out at Dean and hopped excitedly across the room into her room. Dean jumped when he heard a scream and he ran into the room with his wand drawn.

"What is it? What's wrong?"

"It's- it's FRILLY! Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee." She said, and Dean stared wildly around the room.

"I thought someone was trying to kill you by the way you screamed." He said weakly and shook his head at the girl who was now transfiguring the lace into black cobweb shapes. He looked around the room. The walls were blue, the furniture was yellow, the four-poster was black and the ceiling and floor were red. "By any chance did you request the room to be painted like this?"

"Yep. Primary colours are fun." She said simply, and turned to the door. "Lets go see your room." She grabbed his arm and pulled him out the door and into his room. The room was a navy blue colour, with a white ceiling and carpet. Dean's mouth hit the ground as Hermione started giggling. "Eeeeeeeew."

"EW is right, i'm not living in a room like THIS!" he exclaimed. He took out his wand and muttered a spell. Immediately all the walls turned black-and-white checkerboard (with wobbly lines), the furniture was orange (including the bed) and the ceiling was black with stars on it. The floor looked like water. Hermione shrieked as a shark swam under her feet.

"You did that with one spell?"

"Yup. Replicating spell. Made it into a replica of my room at home."

"Even the floor? I thought that you were muggle-born."

"We were allowed to use magic this summer weren't we? It freaked Seamus out when he came to stay. Thought he was going to sink through the floor." Hermione laughed, then looked at her watch.

"Oops. 11. I've gotta go. G'night"

"Where are you going at 11?"

"Bed."

"At ELEVEN?"

"I get up at 4."

"Four! Why."

"First I jog around the grounds, then I go to the room of requirement."

"What for?"

"Martial arts and archery practise."

"Youdowhatnow?"

"Martial art-"

"Yeah I know what it is but you do that?"

"Yeah." Hermione stopped at the door and turned. "You don't think that Harry and Ron protect themselves when they're fighting the death eaters, Do you?" She winked and left the room.

Dean stood and stared at the door.

"There's two four o'clocks in a day!"
