Chapter 5

Harry followed his fellow Hufflepuffs down the halls of Hogwarts, he had been speaking to one Susan Bones who was the niece of a ministry official, which Harry thought was kinda cool.

"alright everyone, we are about to enter the HufflePuff common room," said the head boy leading them down the corridors..

"the door to the common room is accessed through this pile of barrels, the two barrel from the bottom, middle of the second row, will open to door by tapping the rhyme 'Helga HufflePuff," the head boy demonstrated by knocking on the barrel and stepping aside as the door swung open leading into the hufflepuff common room.

Harry was taken by surprise by how warm and inviting the house was and just how much light there was coming through the windows.

'must be a charm' thought harry

As Harry and the other first years took in the sight of their common room many failed to notice the arrival of a plump woman dressed in brown who looked like she just finished gardening.

"Hello students, I am your Head of House Pomona sprout, I would like to welcome you all to HufflePuff, which will be your home for the next 8 years," said Sprout

"Now the house of Hufflepuff is the house of Loyalty and Hard work, so I expect you all to finish your homework on time and correctly, and to be a loyal friend, now off to bed with you all, boys dorms are on the right and girls on the left," finished Sprout before turning around and walking into her office.

Harry made his way to the dorms and found his dorm when he walked in he was followed by three other boys. as Harry began unpacking his trunk he could faintly hear his roommates talking behind him.

he was interrupted from pulling his books out from someone tapping on his shoulder, turning around Harry saw his roommates looking at him, like he was some sort of god.

"Um hi.." said Harry, uncomfortable with the staring

"Hi I'm justin, this is Wayne, and Ernest, are u really Harry Potter," asked Justin looking eager.

"Um well yeah, but I go by Harry Zbornak," before Harry could even explain the boys started asking if it was an alibi if they could sign their books about him and other stuff, which was making Harry very annoyed.

"Stop, I'm not some celebrity for u to stare at for your own pleasure, first off those books are lies and my aunt is suing the writer and second if you want to raise someone up to the level of a God do it to someone who deserves it my mother who died and saved my life," snapped Harry, before turning around and putting his books on the shelf next to his bed.

sufficiently cowed the boys turned around and left Harry alone.

The next morning Harry woke up and was sitting in the common room writing to his aunts when Susan Bones and another girl sat down next to him.

"Hi Harry, watcha doin," asked Susan.

"Writing a letter to my aunts, who's your friend," asked Harry looking up and seeing the other girl.

"Oh Harry this is Hannah Abott," said Susan, motioning to the girl.

The girl seemed nervous at first then got up the courage to say hello.

"Hi I'm Hannah," was the shy introduction.

"Nice to meet you Hannah I'm Harry," said Harry with a grin before returning to his letter.

"Harry we were wondering if you'd like to walk with us to breakfast," asked Hannah.

"Sure let me just finish this and I'll go with you," said Harry, with a smile

As Harry made his way down the halls he was in a deep discussion about DADA with Susan and a conversation about potions and herblogy with Hannah.

As they approached the great Halls doors they could see a group of gryffindors picking on a blond boy on the floor.

Harry who couldn't stand any form of bullying made his way down the hall and pulled the nearest bully away and found it to be the same red head from the train.

"What are you doing," Harry remarked, gaining the attention of the passing students in the hall.

Ron looked surprised for a minute before a grin came to face. "Just showing this Squib who his better our, wanna join us Harry," asked Ron looking at Harry.

Harry was speechless and wondered just how awful a person could be.

When the words finally registered with Harry he was so filled with rage he switched from english to italian to shout at the boy and his goons.

"non sei un bel pezzo di spazzatura come ti permetti di trattare qualcuno in quel modo" shouted Harry, shoving the boy back into his goons who landed in a heep on the floor.

"If I ever see you treating someone like that again I won't use my hands I'll use my wand got it you piece of spazzatura," yelled Harry, watching the boys run down the hall.

Taking a few deep breaths Harry bent over and began to pick the boys supplies up and could see he had a few tears in his eyes.

"Hey it's okay they're gone now," said Harry trying to comfort the boy.

Hannah and Susan after getting over their shock made their way over and started to help pick up the boys books.

"Hey your Neville right, you got sorted into Gryffindor," said Hannah, putting the parchment into a neat pile.

"Um yeah you're Hannah abbott right, and you're Susan Bones," said Neville, looking at the girls then looking at Harry and smiling.

"And your Harry Potter, thanks for helping me they said you'd probably be helping them torument me to rule the school," said Neville.

Harry allowed a moment of anger to pass before he answered, "well I won't, I can't stand bullies like them," said Harry, helping the boy to his feet.

"Hey Neville, do you wanna join us for breakfast? It would be nice to have another friend," said Harry with a grin.

Neville nodded and joined the group at the table and some were surprised to see a gryffindor in the sea of badgers on the first day of school but some who had witnessed the events in the hallway began spreading the word around school, how Harry potter wasn't letting anyone get away with bullying or using his name to do it.

When word reached the staff many let out a sigh of relief that it seemed that miniature james potter hadn't arrived at hogwarts.

While Snape, who had been receiving updates from Albus had not hated the boy as much, was still hesitant to show him kindness as the spawn of potter. But hearing the rumors he thought fondly of Lily and how she would defend others.

Perhaps he would give the boy a chance to prove he was more Lily then Potter. Meanwhile a certain twinkly eyed headmaster could only smile knowing he made the right choice leaving Harry with those women.
