When the first years accompanied by the giant arrived they were all lead into the castle. Zeke all the time scaring the little children
that were staring big eyed at him. Harry was too busy checking the school out to notice, poor little kids, Zeke smirked, making sure
they saw his fangs. The castle was impressive by the wizard standards Harry knew, but he had seen better. It had an ancient aura
around it that made him feel a bit safe; a feeling he knew he'd have to hold on to if he was to survive entering the great hall.
The time came all too soon; the woman that had first greeted them from Faerie Land approached them after talking to the first years.
Dumbledore requests that you come and get sorted first; he wishes to introduce you to the student body. Harry groaned, there went
any hope of blending in. Out of the corner of his eye he saw Zeke expanding his claws, terrifying the muggle born. Well it had been
a rather small hope. Straightening his already perfect posture he got Zeke's attention and entered the hall.
The stares were overwhelming and whispers broke out like wild fire. Harry was distracted though as Zeke gave a squeal and made
a lung for the quivering Slytherin prince. Harry was oh so tempted to let him too, but business came before pleasure, he could
watch his friend ruin the blonde's reputation later. He practically dragged the boy with him. They stopped next to Dumbledore and
bowed gracefully, Zeke still pouting from being denied his new toy. Dumbledore seemed a bit taken aback at the formal greeting.
The insane old man recovered though and he lifted his aqua robes to show off a hairy white leg covered in fishnets as he curtsied.
Some of the students passed out at that moment, others tried to rip their eyes out. But Harry remained passive and waited for the
man to talk, and talk the man did.
It was nearly an hour later that he stopped his speech, which at some point had gone to taco salads not really being salads. With a
grandeur motion he brought out an old hat. The hat began to sing, a horrible rhyming song, thank god it was fire proof or Zeke
would have ended its life. Instead Zeke had gotten an outraged look from the deputy Headmistress as the hat made the song EXTRA
long to spite the boy. Zeke was first up; he had to be forced down for the 'atrocity of fashion' to be put on his pretty head. The hat
seemed to be living it up as he took his sweet time before pronouncing 'SLYTHERIN'. Zeke seemed confused for a moment till
Draco burst into tears that could mean only one thing. "SCORE!" Zeke frolicked to the other boy happily and situated himself on the
blond's lap, before cheering on Harry.
Harry's face remained impassive as he sat on the stool. He waited. And waited. Nothing happened, the hat coughed, "I am afraid I
can not see into this boys head." The hall fell silent. Never in the history of the school had the hat not been able to sort some one.
Harry silently cursed and let his barriers fall, he couldn't let all of them fall, as it was he felt naked but it was enough to let the
powerful bewitched object in. 'SLYTHERIN!' Zeke jumped up, which lead to him and Draco in a pile on the floor with the bench
on top of them. Ron was making some exclamation loudly for the whole hall to hear about not being surprised. The discontent was
all the other Slytherins needed from their enemies to grudgingly welcome their new housemates.
The first years were brought in and sorted. Dinner appeared in front of them, which brought on grimaces from both boys. Human
food was so over done. Faeries ate both animals and plants raw to honor the life given up. The way the dead were so mutilated and
shaped was rather sickening. So instead Zeke opted for seducing Malfoy and Harry subtly helped him. Dinner was almost done as
Snape swooped down like a raven upon them. "I would prefer if you not force yourself on my star pupil. I believe you already have
an easy option for that," the look he sent Harry was as harsh as his words. But that wasn't what was bugging Harry… there was
something off about the man. Before he could grasp it though the man forced a letter on them and left.
Harry and Zeke
Meet me in my office after dinner; I have provided a map, the password is Snickers.
Albus
With the letter was what looked like a child's doodle, complete with stick people Harry swore were done in crayon? This was
going to be a long year.
A/N Oh my so many people responded to the last chapter! It made me want to update super fast (for me at least :P) You can still vote for which pairings you want, Harry/Snape Zeke/Draco are in the lead the rest are pretty close...
