The next day the 4 friends walked through the platform, Harry looked up, it was sunny and beautiful. Harry realized that this was the last time he would arrive at school as a student. Harry, Ron, and Hermione found a compartment toward the back of the train. A few minutes later Ginny returned with a girl Harry had never seen. "Everybody, this is Rose, she in my year and a Gryfindor, She transferred from Boboton, when her family moved to England." Rose was a medium sized girl, with straight black hair, kind brown eyes, and small lips. Hermione smiled "Hello Rose, out of curiosity how do you know you're a Gryfindor, I've read Hogwarts a History, it never mentioned pre-sorting?" Ron rolled his eyes, "Hermione, she's new she doesn't want to answer your stupid questions. By the way I'm Ron, and that is Harry Potter, as I'm sure you've figured out." She nodded "I'll answer, they presort transfer students. And Hello Harry, it's nice to meet you. It also quite nice to meet you Ron!" She then winked at him. Ron turned a crimson that matched there Quitage robes, and Hermione had never looked madder. The rest of the train ride continued on pretty uneventfully, they discussed classes, Quitage, and told Rose funny stories about Hogwarts; many of which involved Fred, George, and Filch.
As the 5 students exited the train, it had become dark, it was warm outside, and Harry smiled has he heard the familiar voice of Hagrid yelling "First years this way!" The group continued to the carriages, as they made there way to the school, Harry looked more carefully at Rose. She was relatively normal at first glance, but if you looked closer you could see that she was very exotic looking, Ron had seemed to notice this too. Since they had gotten if the carriages Ron had been staring at her, Rose didn't seem to mind. Every so often she would look Ron's way and wink or move her tongue around at him. Ginny didn't seem to notice, Hermione on the other hand looked like she was about to cry. It was clear that Rose's arrival was not necessarily a good thing.
The dinning hall looked relatively the same, except for the teacher's bench. And even before eating, the students were informed of the changes. Professor McGonigall tapped lightly on her glass and the room grew silent. As she stood Harry noticed that she looked a lot older than last year, she had bags under her eyes and her lips were pursed even more than usual. I was odd to see her in the center seat, instead of Dumbuldore.
"Good Evening students and welcome back to Hogwarts, it is wonderful to see you all safe, here once again. Before we start eating I would like to address the staff changes, as seeing there are quite a few, and some new rules that will be in tact, due to the ending of last year. First of all as I'm sure you all know I am now Headmaster at Hogwarts. I will still be teaching Transfiguration, though. The new assistant Headmaster will be Professor Flitwick, do give him the same respect you gave me. Professor Slughorn will be staying on as you potions master. This year due to unfortunate circumstances, Severiose Snape will not be with us, so filling his spot in Defense against the Dark Arts, will be Professor Tonks." Harry hadn't noticed her, but there she was, her hair had been changed from its normal Bubble Gum Pink, to a more conservative brown. "She will also be our school security, which means any problems that involve Auror worthy information should be directed at her, not me. Also all 1st and 2nd years will be walked to there classes by there previous teacher. Also wandering the grounds after dark will be taken a lot more seriously now." Harry noticed that she looked right at him when she said it. "Also teachers will wander Hogsmead on visit weekends to make sure there is nothing weird going on there. Filch would also like to add that love potions or other alike substances are not aloud, and those found with them in there possession will be punished severely. He would also like to remind you that anything that comes from Weasley Wizard Wheezes is strictly forbidden. That is all, the sorting may be done and then we can eat." And with that she sat down. The sorting was quick and hushed, the hats song was quick and a repeat from last year. The dinner was hushed and everybody left after eating. Though the castle looked the same as Harry walked up to Gryfindor tower, he felt a sense of fear that had never been at the school he had learned to call home.
