It was the night almost 1:00 Am it was September 1st. Hayley was sleeping soundly but a nightmare interrupted her;
Hayley was standing in front of a cloaked figure, the figure was tall. He spoke in a snake-like voice 'Ahh…..The Potter girl, ancient blood flows in your veins just like your mother. Will you be foolish like her and deny my offer? Or will you prove yourself worthy?' 'My mother is not foolish, she must incredibly smart to deny whatever offer you gave her, your stupid, evil and selfish' Hayley shouted burning with anger. The figure laughed a snake-like laugh 'You have your father's recklessness, something your brother lacks, I'm not selfish dear Hayley, I'm doing all of this for the better good of the wizarding world' 'As if' Hayley shouted 'Your just a pureblood maniac, yet you're not even a pureblood you're a half-blood, do your followers know that?' 'Shut up insolent girl' he hissed and took his wand out and spoke in a clear voice Crucio. Hayley fell to the floor screaming in pain, he repeated the word again and Hayley screamed till her mouth ran dry. She floated away hearing his stupid laughter.
Everyone in the black house was sleeping soundly, even the demigods. They were woken up by an ear-splitting scream. James was the first to wake up, his instincts told him to check his children's room and that's what he did.
There he saw, Hayley, hugging her knees, muttering something in Latin, black flames enveloping her. She was bleeding but the flames seemed to heal the wounds, Harry was staring at her in shock. The others followed Chloe, James and Sirius shared a look.
Chloe slowly approached Hayley and touched her shoulder. Hayley launched her into Chloe's embrace muttering in Latin, and Chloe muttering soothing words in Latin while rubbing her back. Minutes later Hayley pulled back wiping the tears away she started explaining what she saw in Latin to Chloe.
Percy stood there while Hayley talked to Chloe in Latin, he turned to Jason and Reyna who looked like they understood everything Hayley was talking about. Once Hayley finished Chloe looked at James grimly. Percy launched him on Hayley gathering her to his chest and she buried her face into his chest.
Mrs. Weasley announced everyone to go back to bed but Hayley whispered to Percy 'stay, please' and he looked at James who nodded. Finally, all of them were in bed, Percy making sure Hayley fell asleep before falling asleep himself.
Finally, it was September 1st. Time for the demigods to go to Hogwarts. They woke up early, and the house was buzzing with energy. Before going Chloe pulled Hayley aside and gave her a book and a letter addressed to Dumbledore, the book looked old she told Hayley 'Talk to Dumbledore when you reach' and Hayley nodded. Eventually, they were out the door, with Sirius in his grim form on which Hayley asked if she could do it.
They arrived at King Cross Station which was bustling with muggles, witches, and wizards. The group walked to platforms 9 and 10 and James explained 'you just have to run through platforms 9 and 10, don't forget to close your eyes, then you'll reach platforms 9 ¾' 'You're insane' Hayley commented. James just shook his head and made Harry go, they all watch as he disappeared. 'I going next' Hayley exclaimed and ran with a smile on her face. She too disappeared.
Hayley ran and bumped into someone and fell. She looked up and saw a boy with pale skin, blonde hair, and silver eyes. He hissed at her 'Watch where you're going, stupid mudblood' Hayley stood up and glared at him 'Shut up you idiot' and with that, she walked to the twins.
She joined the twins who helped her with her trunk and owl cage. But then they disappeared. She walked out of the compartment to see her parents hugging Harry, who looked dizzy. Unfortunately, Mrs. Weasley caught her and hugged her tight Hayley couldn't breathe, and then James, then Chloe who made her promise to write them every week.
Hayley then went and hugged Sirius and muttered 'I'm going to miss you, snuffles' and he growled at her, but she just scratched his ears and walked in the train just as the train hooted. Harry, Ginny, and Neville found a compartment, and the demigods settled in.
They talked about Hogwarts, mostly Jason who described Hogwarts just as Hermione described it to him. Hayley was zoning out thinking about the blonde boy, he seemed stuck up, wait blonde hair, silver eyes and stuck up attitude must be Malfoy, and had the pin Hermione and Ron had except it was green and silver, must be a prefect.
Wait he's a prefect. And I thought Dumbledore was sane. Hayley was so wrapped up in her thoughts that she didn't notice Draco had come up to their compartment and now were taunting them. She finally entered reality when Draco said 'Look it's the stupid mudblood, who acts like she owns the world' Hayley glared at him and stalked up to him.
When they were face to face, Draco noticed her eyes were changing from sky blue to blue-grey and back to sky blue. She then started in a sweet tone 'Beautiful hair, mesmerizing silver eyes and such a handsome guy' For a minute Draco thought she was flirting, but then she tutted 'Yet wasted on a stuck up attitude, must be Malfoy' 'shut up mudblood' Draco finally hissed and she hissed back 'I'm not a mudblood, I'm a pureblood, know your facts Malfoy' She leaned close so that their noses were inches apart. Draco noted that she smelled like vanilla. Not like he cared.
She had fire Draco noted burning fire, but it was beautiful and everlasting. Burning so beautifully and powerfully Draco thought the train might melt. He tried to think of other things, but his mind kept drifting to the beautiful, passionate noirette.
She glared at him and hissed 'And as for my friends, our parents are more powerful than you think, stay away from me, my friends and my brother or you'll regret ever having this nice little talk between us' Draco swore her eyes turned black for a minute and then turned back to sky blue then to blue-grey.
She then winked at him 'Goodbye' and slammed the compartment door. She muttered a string of curses under her breath in Latin. 'Do you know your eyes are changing color?' Reyna asked 'what?' Hayley asked confused 'yeah' Will added 'It's changing from sky blue to blue-grey and then to black'. Hayley shrugged 'As if I care, hey do you Ron will notice if I spill some hair color changing potion into his food?' 'Nah' Nico answered 'He won't even notice if we place a hellhound on his plate' and all of them burst into laughter.
Soon they reached Hogwarts, all of them just stood there taking in the beauty. A half-giant was shouting 'Firs' years Firs' years here' the demigods climbed into a carriage, the thestrals bowed to Percy who blushed.
The carriage stopped in front of the castle. The others stood there, but nonetheless followed Harry and his friends to the great hall. They walked to the great hall looking around in awe. Hayley caught Dumbledore's eye, she watched as his eyes twinkled.
The students slowly filed in sitting in their respected tables. Talking to their friends about the summer and other whatnot. Hayley noticed girls staring at Percy, she nudged him and pointed, he turned pink on all these attention but Hayley just laughed. In the middle sat a stool with a battered old hat in it. The hat began to sing.
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 world's 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 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
Take only those they wanted, so,
For instance, Slytherin
Took only pure-blood wizards
Of great cunning, just like him,
And only those of sharpest mind
Were taught by Ravenclaw
While the bravest and the boldest
Went to daring Gryffindor.
Good Hufflepuff, she took the rest,
And taught them all she knew,
Thus the Houses and their founders
Retained friendships firm and true.
So Hogwarts worked in harmony
For several happy years,
But then discord crept among us
Feeding on our faults and fears.
The Houses that, like pillars four,
Had once held up our school,
Now turned upon each other and,
Divided, sought to rule.
And for a while it seemed the school
Must meet an early end,
What with dueling and with fighting
And the clash of friend on friend
And at last there came a morning
When old Slytherin departed
And though the fighting then died out
He left us quite downhearted.
And never since the founders four
Were whittled down to three
Have the Houses been united
And they once were meant to be.
And now the Sorting Hat is here
And you all know the score:
I sort you into Houses
Because that is what I'm for,
But this year I'll go further,
Listen closely to my song:
Though condemned I am to split you
Still I worry that it's wrong,
Though I must fulfill my duty
And must quarter every year
Still I wonder whether sorting
May not bring the end I fear.
Oh, know the perils, read the signs,
The warning history shows,
For our Hogwarts is in danger
From external, deadly foes
And we must unite inside her
Or we'll crumble from within.
I have told you, I have warned you...
Let the Sorting now begin.
Hayley looked at the hat in wonder. Professor McGonagall started calling names of the first years. Once they were done, Dumbledore announced 'Students, this year we have six students transferring from Ilvermorny; I hope everyone will welcome them to Hogwarts' McGonagall started calling names; 'Arellano Reyna' Hayley squeezed Reyna's hand and gave her a reassuring smile.
Reyna smiled at Hayley and gracefully walked to the stool the hat yelled before it touched her head 'GRYFFINDOR' and the table burst into applause. Jason was in Ravenclaw, Nico in Slytherin, and Percy in Gryffindor.
Finally, it was Hayley's turn McGonagall shouted 'Potter, Hayley' and the entire room went quiet, people began whispering, Will was the only one left with Hayley he gave her a reassuring smile and she flashed him a charming one and gracefully walked to the stool, winking at McGonagall.
As she walked she caught Draco's eye and winked at him. She sat at the stool, as McGonagall placed the hat on her head. The hat talked;
'A Potter and a Taylor, eh? Now I'm going to check your memories' 'Isn't that invading my personal space?' Hayley asked 'No, it's called sorting' the hat checked her memories. 'Hmm… an ugly past' the hat spoke 'I wouldn't say ugly, it's bad' Hayley countered 'yeah, cunning and ambitious' The hat spoke again 'if we're going to have a talk I fancy a cup of tea' Hayley said and the hat burst out laughing, The great hall stared as Hayley grinned at the hat, and the hat laughed. 'Quite a sense of humor, now you'll be best in…..SLYTHERIN' the hat shouted.
The hat shouted SLYTHERIN and the table burst into applause and cheering, McGonagall reached to take the hat but it shouted 'wait, no, not Slytherin….Gryffindor…no, not Gryffindor' everyone was watching in anticipation.
'Which one do you want?' the hat asked 'I particularly don't care' Hayley answered 'Gryffindor or Slytherin, Gryffindor or Slytherin' the hat chanted loudly and then it shouted 'you'll be in…..GRYTHERIN' and everyone stared at the hat 'Grytherin?' Hayley asked 'yeah, you'll flourish in both Gryffindor and in Slytherin, I can't choose so you're in Grytherin' the hat answered casually. Then it went silent.
A/N: I don't know why I put Hayley in Grytherin, it seemed nice. So ignore the last paragraph of the last chapter because I'm not going to write the part where Chloe opened the veil between life and death because it would set back the story and change ti's direction.
Au Revoir
