#PARSELTONGUE#
After the birthday bash, all of his quidditch gang would come to the Black manor and play all afternoon. But since every good thing has to come to an end, September 1st came. All the senior players in the gang had to go back to Hogwarts. Soon the remaining gang also split up, and they had to go back. However they often came, but their arrival became negligible.
Corvus also became busy, with gaining a new wand and actually performing magic, as he referred it. Remus and Sirius had upped the studying, reducing time for potions, and applying it to charms and DADA. Sirius had taken on himself to teach the DADA, as he was the second best in it, in his year just after James. Corvus loved Charms and soaked it as a sponge. He didn't like DADA that much, but anything with wand was great for Corvus.
The year went by with not much disturbances. It was rather dull year. The only amazing things were, getting a wand and actually using it. One day on the dining table during breakfast, an owl came handling the DAILY PROPHET. Sirius grabbed the newspaper, read the first headline and started laughing with pure joy, he then passed it to Remus who looked equally happy. Looking at everybody's confused expressions Sirius said in a very happy voice "That Traitorous Bastard rat is finally been caught, oh Merlin! What a great news it is." Corvus beamed after hearing it.
Sirius told Corvus about James and Lily Potter, three months ago, when he came to his study and asked about his mother. It pained Sirius, when Corvus asked about his mother. He told himself that he would give Corvus so much love, that he won't need a mother, and when Corvus asked him the question, he thought that he must have failed somewhere. He forced these thoughts out of his mind and explained himself that it was inevitable, and Corvus deserves to know about his parents. So he told the whole story from mauderers, to war, voldemort, and death of potters and most importantly, bastard dumbledore. Corvus didn't understand most of it, but what confused him most was how he had 2 fathers and 1 mother, what he knew, was everyone had a single father and mother. He shrugged and ignored the topic thinking about confusing rituals.
At the end of the whole ordeal Sirius was surprised when Corvus hugged him and said "Only you are my daddy, they may be my mum and dad, but they are gone, and you are here, so you are my only father and I love you". Sirius was silent for a second and then hugged back muttering 'thank you' and 'I love you too'.
Back to the present time, Sirius had called Tiffy, and asked the house elf to prepare a big feast for the wonderful occasion. The delighted elf disappeared to prepare the feast. Sirius made some floo calls and invited the family and they celebrated the whole day.
On Corvus' ninth birthday, a huge ball was organized, where many all the pureblood families were invited, including ones in other countries, such as Delacour and Podolski. However, Weasely were not invited thanks to Wlaburga, who strictly ordered that, only standard families should be invited.
Corvus however objected the ball, as it would hinder his annual Quidditch game. So Now the invitations consisted of two events, in which they were first invited for lunch and Quidditch, and later in the evening for Ball and Dinner.
The whole idea was a huge success. Only foreign guest were the ones who was absent for the Lunch and Quidditch. Special arrangements were made on the roof of the Castle, so people could see the following matches. For the first time in years, the west and South wing of the Castle was in use. Those two wings were known as guest wings, where all the guests were accommodated and left to relax and prepare for the ball in the night.
The main hall of the Castle was used for the Ball. All the furniture was removed and the maple wood flooring was polished to a point, you could see your face. The first Dance obviously had to be done by Corvus, and Boy was he nervous? Corvus felt like shit. He never danced, except for the lessons his grandmother gave him, but she was his grandmother. He never asked a girl, to dance with him. Hell! he never talked to a girl except for formal reasons. He felt a hand on his shoulder. He turned to see Sirius giving a knowing smile, which comforted him. He looked around and Saw, a very beautiful blond wearing a blue gown looking at him. When he looked closely, he saw most beautiful icy blue eyes, and a gorgeous face. He recognized her as Daphne Greengrass.
He mentally slapped himself, and scolded himself of being a fool. He was a heir to a noble house. He should be confident. With a new found confidence, he strode over to the Greengrass family with an air of superiority around him. He gave a curt nod to those who wished him and reached his destination. He looked in the eyes of the girl, extended his right hand and bowed a little and said "May I have a Pleasure of this Dance? Miss greengrass?"
Daphne was standing with her family in the main hall, now turned into ball room of the Black Castle. She adored the beauty of the castle and its decorations and looking around for possible 'dance date'. Her father had made it clear, that the ball was an outstanding place for forming more connections, politically as well as socially, and so heiress of the House of Greengrass she was expected to be on best behavior, and make as many acquaintances as possible.
She like, every girl around her age wanted to dance with the boy of the hour- Corvus Black. Being an heir to a Most Noble House, with exceedingly good looks, and handsome features, made him the Knight in Shining armor of most of the females. Raised hearing stories about boy-who-lived, and how he defeated the dark lord and his amazing tales of slaying a mighty dragon and saving the princess, made every girl want to be that princess in distress. She looked around and saw many beautiful girls, from all over the world, who kept glancing towards the Head and heir of the hosting family. She sighed and thought 'I am never going to get a chance at him'. She then looked towards the said boy, who was looking at her, their eyes met for a brief second but felt like ages. He then turned, excused himself and started walking towards her.
Her heart started beating with million beats per second. First she didn't believe, that he would be coming to her, then she turned around to see no one behind her. She watched as the handsome boy, walking towards her, greeting everyone on the way. The said boy then stood in front of her, looking directly in her eyes, then bowed and asked if she would like to dance with him. At that moment everything froze for Daphne, she wanted to squeal in delight but a Lady never squeals. She wanted to just jump in happiness, but as an heiress she had been drilled the perfect ways of Ladyship. Somehow she overcame, and softly placed her hand in his and spoke softly with a cute smile "yes, you may. Mr. Black".
Hearing those words the first thought that rang in his mind was, 'Holy shit! I did it'. He composed himself and led her to the centre of the floor, he looked around and smirked as he got many jealous stares from his peers, apparently everyone wanted the Greengrass. Daphne however, noticed larger amount of stares, from different girls and their parents alike. Everyone wanted their daughter to dance first with the Black heir. When they reached the centre of the room, he held her right hand with his left, while his right arm was around her waist, just above her hips. As the music started they moved around graciously, each step taken with perfection. On the sidelines, the Black family looked in pride, only Walburga was tensed thinking 'Merlin Help him, oh Cory don't step on her feet' but relaxed when she watched Corvus move like a pro.
Soon Pollux led her wife on the floor and started moving alongside Corvus and Daphne, Corvus gave an acknowledging nod, which was returned by Pollux, Then Orion and Walburga too joined, followed by Sirius and a beautiful woman in her late twenties in his arms. Corvus looked at her, trying to remember where he has seen her. His curiosity was cleared by Daphne "She was on the cover page of Witch Weekly last month. She is a supermodel. Corvus sighed, he knew his dad was a ladies' man, Remus had told him the stories. He pushed away the thought and decided to concentrate on the party
The night was a successful event. Everyone went with positive thought about the Black heir and a smile on their faces. Few guests stayed in the manor, as they decided to leave in the morning, or were too drunk to return. Corvus had two rooms full of gifts, and for the first time in life, he didn't want to see them. He decided to open them in the morning and went to his room and retires for the night.
Next morning, he saw his father sitting on the dining table sipping his coffee and reading the newspaper. He took the opposite seat and ordered his milk. He saw the front page and groaned "so I made the front page again?" it wasn't a question, neither a statement. Sirius, looked at him with a raised eyebrow, he continued "dad I am telling you, with this rate, they surely are going to publish everything I do, soon you will read headlines like 'The-boy-who-lived ate bacon' or 'yesterday the Black heir went to the urinal five times. Isn't he amazing'" said Corvus in a dramatic way. Sirius barked out a laugh at his antics.
They recovered from their laughter and with a smirk Corvus asked "So another supermodel? I hope she is not my new mum". Sirius then said "Cory, Cory, Cory… now it's not the way to talk about your future mom" Corvus looked up and said "are you serious?". "Why of course I am SIRIUS" said Sirius.
"Oh come on dad. Why do you even… ugh leave it" exclaimed Corvus with a frustrated sigh. Sirius looked up with a mischievous glint in his eyes and said "Corvus I think it's the time for the talk". They were interrupted by a snort. They turned to see Remus walking towards them. "Padfoot leave him! he is just turned 9. Its not the time yet". Sirius looked irritated and replied angrily "Moony I am going to give him the talk this year, no matter what. You have been stopped me once not now." Remus scolded "You idiot that was three years ago. Who in the world, give the talk to a six year old. I had to stop you". "but there is no stopping me this time" Sirius retorted. He then led Corvus to his study.
After 2 hours, a very red looking Corvus came out of the study, with a grinning Sirius and a Sighing Remus. The remaining family looked at them questioningly to which Remus replied "he finally gave the talk". The males looked pleased and also started grinning, while the females of the table were fuming with rage "how dare you spoil my grandson" shouted an enraged Walburga. "He will not be like you all" exclaimed an raging Irma. Every male Black looked annoyed at that comment. Pollux stood up and said "He is a Black, and will carry on our legacy. Come Cory, lets teach you the ways of man" he dragged Corvus to the library, with a determined Sirius and Orion following.
Poor Corvus' day worsened, as his father, Grandfather and Great Grandfather, explained, what responsibilities he had as being the Male Black. He was thought thoroughly, how to talk to women, Flirt and many more things. After 2 hours, he couldn't take it and ran to his room. As the elderly Blacks watched him go, Orion muttered "I think we went a little overboard." "You think?" muttered a sighing Remus.
After that a new subject was added to his studies –Women. Pollux had reduced an hour from his quidditch training and taught him the ways of the Ladies' man. Being a Black it came natural to him. First he became shyer around girls, but soon he became what he was expected to be. Women of the House were helpless, they knew that Every Black Male was a legendary Flirt in their time, and they were converting their, poor, innocent Cory in the same category. They knew they were helpless, so they let it go. They knew everyone of those flirt was the most loyal and trustworthy with their partner, just enjoyed their young years, thoroughly.
Time fled by, at an amazing rate. Corvus was very busy with his schedule; he enjoyed his every lesson and his playing time. Many times, he would get a break, when Pollux would take him to see quidditch matches or the family reunions.
Blacks were back to their former Glory, having great influence in Winzengamot and the ministry. Their business ventures and trading companies, were having gold literally flowing in their vaults. They were now the richest family in Britain with 23 billion Galleons richer than Malfoys. They were also fourth richest family in Europe having a total wealth of 132 Billion Galleons, in which they had 47 Billion Galleons as liquid Assets, rest as Properties around the world, which consisted 3 Castles, and 5 large Manors and shares in different projects.
(Time skip: 21st May 1991)
It was a beautiful Morning in Northern Ireland. Corvus, had woken to the sound of knocking on the window. He opened an eye to see a brown owl outside the window. He woke up, rubbed his eyes and moved towards the window, he opened it and petted the owl, and took the letter and gave the owl a treat. He looked at the letter it read.
To Corvus Sirius Black,
Largest room in East wing
Black Castle
Ireland.
He turned to see a red seal with H engraved on it, his eyes widened, and he ran out of his room practically screeming 'IT CAME IT CAME'. In the room a large snake just sighed in annoyance as her sleep was disturbed.
He reached the dining hall, to see everyone enjoying their Breakfast. When they saw him running, they gave a confused looks. Corvus then squealed "Finally my Hogwarts letter is here". "well then, what are you waiting for, open and read it.
He opened it and began to read
HOGWARTS SCHOOL of WITCHCRAFT and WIZARDRY
Headmaster : Albus Dumbledore
(Order of Merlin, First Class, Grand Sorc. Chf. Warlock,Supreme Mugwump, International Confed. of Wizards)
Dear Mr. Black,
We are pleased to inform you that you have been accepted at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardy. Please find enclosed a list of all necessary books and equipment.
Term begins at 1 september. We await you owl no later than July 31.
Yours sincerely,
Minevera McGonagall,
Deputy Headmistress.
He then took out another page, read it and said, this is the details of books and uniform. Everyone nodded and Sirius took the note and spoke "well I guess, this calls for a shopping trip, Cory get ready we are going to shopping. After an hour, Corvus came back to main hall, to see Sirius and pollux waiting for him. They then held each other's hand and apparated to Diagon Alley.
"First lets go to Gringotts, for money and set up your account" said siruis and they entered an odd looking building. Corvus looked around to see a lot of Goblins working, he found them fascinating creatures. Sirius walked up to the farthest counter and said "I would like to access my vaults and open a new one". The goblin looked up and grinned "Indeed Lord Black." He motioned for another goblin and said "This is wolffang, he will show you to you vault, and after that I will shortly join you in the office for new vault". Sirius nodded and said "May your gold continue to flow" and walked behind wolffang.
Goblins were shrewed creatures, very cunning and ran the Gringotts- the wizarding bank. They never liked humans and held no respect for them, same was with humans, and they considered them to be evil and gold diggers. Sirius was an exception, surely being biggest customer mattered something. They didn't loved him just had a mutual respect for him. He used to leave big tips, which satisfied them, and in return they didn't cheat him, and helped him around with quick service. Merits of being ridiculously rich.
They sat in cart and braced them for a thrilling ride. After a minute it came to an halt. The goblin then said "Vault number 235". They got off and Sirius gave the key to little creature. He inserted the key and nodded to Sirius. He walked ahead and placed his palm on Black crest. Corvus heard many locks opening and watched in amazement as two large doors formed in the wall and opened, he looked inside and was shocked. The vault was endless large room with large piles of galleons in it. The two elders looked at him and chuckled. "Keep your mouth close or a fly will enter it" Corvus immediately shut his mouth gaining another round of chuckles. "Well what do you say Cory?" asked Sirius. Corvus turned and said "HOLY SHIT! I know we were rich, bu-but this is insane". The two elders nodded with knowing grin. Sirius went inside and grabbed a handful of galleons few sickles and knuts and filled them in his pouch then came back. He turned to goblin and said "let's go and meet Master Ragnok". The goblin nodded, closed the doors handed the key to Sirius and motioned them to the cart.
With another thrilling ride they were infront of the office of Director of the Gringotts. They entered and sat on the chairs in front of the desk. Corvus then saw the Goblin from desk in main hall coming from and sitting in the chair behind the desk. He then spoke "so what can I do for you Lord Black?" Sirius saiad "Master Ragnok I would like to open a savings vault in the name of Corvus Black with 1 million galleons as primary deposit. Also I would like to issue an instant transfer Card for the same vault." Ragnok nodded and asked "would that be all?". Sirius nodded and said "yes, that will be all, send the card to the Black Castle. May your Gold continue to flow". With a short bow, the blacks went out.
When they finally got out of bank, COrvus nearly shouted "1 Million Galleons? Why would I want that much amount". Pollux laughed at that and said "Cory you saw how rich we are, so just enjoy the money, just don't spend it over addictive potions". The day became even better for Corvus. "Let's see, you need clothes, we will arrange for it. Then you need books, okay lets go to Flourish and Blotts." They entered the shop, and bought the books and required quills. Sirius then called tiffy and the elf took the luggage to the Castle. "Now let's go buy your wand". The trio then went to Ollivander's for corvus' new wand.
They were greeted by a sight of an old man dusting the shelves. They walked to the counter when said man turned and said "Ah Mr. Black, I was wondering when will you come here for your wand. Lord Black I hope the wand is working properly, 11 and a half inches with unicorn horn with oak wood if I remember correctly" Sirius smiled and said "oh yes Mr. ollivander correct as always."
The man then went inside and brought a box opening, he handled it to Corvus "12 inches, maple and Dragon's heartstring". Corvus picked it and gave a swish, and a lamp exploded. "No no… certainly not, now let's try this one 10 inches, ash and unicorn hair". Corvus took the wand, and again gave a flick, this time; all the wands from first shelf flew outwards.
"Tricky customer, eh? I have just the thing for you." Ollivander then went and picked out a wand muttering 'maybe this one'. "Try this Mr. Black 12 inches holly and Pheonix feather". Corvus flicked it and Ollivander was flown back.
The whole ordeal went for about an hour, and a batted and bruised Ollivander spoke "I am afraid Mr. Black, I have no wands here for you, and maybe you should try the custom made wands in Knockturn alley."
The blacks nodde and moved towards the said shop. "I can't believe it, Ollivander wasn't able to provide a wand" said a shocked Sirius, to which Pollux nodded. They entered a old busted place in the narrow corridor which said 'Dragonite's Custom made wands'. They entered and were greeted by a skinny old man who was limping as he walked. "Welcome Mr. Black, Lords Black. Ollivander messaged me that you would be coming. Come here"
They walked to a desk where several pouches and vials were kept. "okay Mr. Black wave you hand over these woods and tell me which attracts you, then choose a rune from this pouch and repeat the process on these vials. Now there maybe two elements which would attract you so don't worry which to choose.
Corvus waved his hand over some woods and chose one Dark brown looking wood. Then took out a white fang from the pouch, and then chose Vials, which contained, a white translucent liquid, He then took these ingredients to the Man. The said man's eyes widened at seeing the ingredients.
"That's a very unusual combination, Rare and very powerful, it will take a lot of deal in making the wand. Rosewood with Basillisk Fang, Unicorn's tears. Come back in an hour and I will have the wand ready. Also give me a drop of your blood for the crafting." The adult Blacks were shocked, those were the rarest cores to find in a wand, but what have ever been simple for picked a blade and dropped a drop of his blood. They ignored the fact and went to eat the ice cream. After an hour and some shopping in quidditch supplies shop they were back in the Wand shop.
"Ah Mr. Black, I have just completed your wand, a very strong wand indeed. It is very powerful for curses, charms and Dark arts. That wand is what I call grey wand, able to do all kind of magic. But I must warn you, don't let anyone use it, or there will be dire consequences. Corvus nodded, and there was a sudden charge of magic inside him. He couldn't describe the feeling; it was like… he was complete. They paid for the wand, and went back happily.
They went back to the castle and after dinner went to sleep. He saw Sythia already coiled on his bed. He walked up to the bed and lied next to his familiar. Sythia then slithered around him, coiling her tail around his leg and nuzzling his head in his neck. He remembered the day when she became his familiar.
(Flashback…)
Corvus was sitting in his bed, reading a novel, when Sythia slithered near him, he started petting her, strocking her beautiful black scales
#Master can I request something# hissed Sythia. Corvus looked up from his book and hissed back #of course what do you want#.
#Master I would like to be your bonded familiar# hissed sythia nervously. Corvus looked confused and hissed #but I thought you were my familiar#
#no master, I was your companion, not familiar. For familiar bonding, I have to bite you and you have to conjure your magic at the spot of bite, then we will be bonded for eternity. I am sorry master, I didn't tell you earlier, as I have to make sure that you are capable, because if your magic was any weaker, you would die.# explained Sythia.
Corvus audily gulped and then nodded, he listed pros and cons and took a deep breath. He then concentrated his magic on his right wrist and moved it towards Sythia, She took a huge bite and entered her fangs in his wrist. Corvus, Screemed in pain as the venom went in his body and started bonding with his blood. Soon he lied shaking in his bed and went into unconsciousness. Next morning he woke up, and felt a lot energetic, and felt power rush through him.
#Good morning Master. The bonding was successful, My venom is now very much stronger and I have grown 3 more feets. I have also gained the power of adjusting my size as per you wish.# Corvus nodded and hugged her and went on his day.
(Flashback end…)
Time flew by and it was 31st august already. Sirius called Corvus to his study. On reaching it, he found all the Males of Black family waiting for him, he knew it meant trouble. They motioned him to take a seat in front of them. "Corvus, from tomorrow you are going to Hogwarts and have a legacy to follow." Said Orion very seriously, and Corvus gulped and nodded.
"Now, we expect you to be in best of behavior, as you would be representing our house. We expect you to be in top of your classes and be a perfect heir and student." Said Pollux. Corvus nodded with determination in his eyes. He was ready to face the world.
"Now most importantly, you have to prove your worth as Black heir. We expect you to be evilly mischievous and turn their life a living hell. Prank as many as you can. Let Hogwarts know, they have, another black." Corvus nodded with a grin.
"And we expect you to at least snog 1 girl by the Christmas. If you fail to do so, you will no longer be the Black heir" Corvus looked up and laughed "oh come on dad…" seeing nobody was laughing, not even smiling. He considered threat to be very real.
"Don't consider it a threat Corvus Black. It's a promise, now off to bed." Corvus practically ran out of the study. The three turned to one another and gave a hearty chuckle. "what do you think, will he manage to do it?" asked Sirius. "Well considering who his father and grandfathers are, it is no worry. Who want to place a bet, I say he will take 3 months." Said pollux "I think 3 and a half months" said orion. "he won't be able to do it" said Sirius. other two only glared at him.
Next day whole Family along with Remus came to drop Harry. Sythia was coiled in is robes. He chose Hogwarts robes as they were baggy and Sythia could easily come with him. They apparated to platform 9 3/4th near a large red colored steam engine. They walked towards the compartments in the back, and on their way, many were whispering or pointing at them. Corvus just smirked at others. After walking for a minute they came near Malfoy family, who were waiting for them.
After few chats, Corvus and Draco hugged Irma, Walburga and Narcissa who had few tears in their eyes. Irma and Walburga gave soft kisses on Corvus' forehead and said "Don't listen to any deal from you father. You will always be an heir to our family".
Corvus' then gave bear hugs from Pollux Sirius and soft manly hugs from Orion and Remus. "Don't forget the del. We want proof." said Sirius. Corvus nodded and boarded the train with Draco to find an empty compartment.
Narcissa whispered to Walburga "Did they told ways of proper man of Black family?" to which Walburga only sighed and nodded. "It is even worse, since they no longer have a trusted eye witness, they want some strong proof", and watched the train leave.
In the train Draco and Corvus found an empty compartment and relaxed themselves. Sythia slithered out and coiled near Corvus on window side. Soon they were joined by Daphne and Tracey. They jumped when they saw Sythia, but Corvus assured that she was his familiar and will not hurt. Daphne took a seat beside Corvus. He was reading a book. With corner of his eyes, he took glances at the blond beauty near him and saw she was doing the same.
After an hour, the door again opened revealing a bushy haired girl she entered the compartment with authority and said "Hi, I am Hermione Granger, have you seen a toad, a boy named Neville has lost it".
"Granger, that's not a wizarding name" spat Draco. "Yes, because it isn't. You know I was so excited when I got my letter its so amazing that there is a magic world. I have learned a few spells, and can perform them. I have been reading a lot…" she continued oblivious to the looks she got.
"There is no toad do you mind getting out" said Draco harshly. "You could have asked politely. Don't you have any manners" retorted Hermione. Corvus looked up from his book and said "We can ask the same, Why did you barge in whe you could have knocked, and as I remember we never asked you anything, while you just were just describing your history, you know nobody is interested here".
The bushy girl was about to say something when she saw a snake and said "You know you are not allowed snake in school, you could be expelled". This just did the trick, Corvus lost any respect remaining and was fuming with rage, before he could response, Slythia Slithered to his lap raised herself and started hissing maniacally with large fangs coming out of her mouth.
The poor girl just rushed out of the compartment in fear. Everyone in the compartment was now very scared. Harry petted the snake calming her "now now girl, relax. You are scaring my friends." The snake then went back to her position and went back to relaxing. Everyone calmed down then Corvus stood and said "I will come in back soon, Draco please take care of Sythia." Draco nodded and Corvus left.
He decided to take a stroll along the train. He came across a compartment where he heard some girls giggling and discussing something. "You know I heard that Corvus Black is coming to Hogwarts this year" said a voice and Corvus smirked. "I hope he notice me. You know I have had a crush on him since I was seven." Said another "We all have" sighed another. Corvus was unable to resist anymore and he knocked on the door. It opened to reveal a beautiful brunette wearing Hogwarts robes. She sat back down, and Corvus saw 2 more girls in similar clothing. Both of them were Blondes. All three had a questioning look on their faces. Corvus then said "Sorry to disturb such beautiful angels, but can I sit here, as all other compartments are full" said with a trademark dazzling Black smile, taught by Sirius.
All the girls blushed a little at the comment and saw him. He was a handsome boy with a heartwarming smile. He was about five feet 3 inches long, with an athletic body. He had long Roman nose, with messy long black hair with Grey eyes with high cheek bone, with very little amount of baby fat on the face. All in all he looked absolutely gorgeous to those girls. The girls passed each other a knowing smirk and invited him in.
They introduced themselves, and when he was about to introduce himself, the candy trolley came. He bought five packs of Blood pop while girls ordered some cakes and pies along with chocolate frogs. When they were about to pay, Corvus took out his transaction card and payed for all of them. Along the way he flirted with them and they with him. One blond who introduced herself as Brittany daggers had clung to him. After an hour she was sitting very close to him, and often hugged him while laughing. Oh how he loved his elders for teaching these skills. They even talked about how they wanted to kiss the great Corvus Black, and how he was their knight in shining armor. It just amused him to no end.
Finally there was an announcement which said that they will reach the school in 15 minutes, so he stood up and said his goodbyes and prepared to go back. When he was about to go back, Brittany stood up gave a peck on his cheek and said "if you need help in anything, don't hesitate in approaching me. And by the way whats your name, you never told us." He just smirked and said "you all will learn in some time. Goodbye angles" and with that he walked out.
He returned to his compartment, where he was bombarded with questions. He just apologized and said that he was making new acquaintances. They shrugged and prepared for school. The train came to a halt at the Hogsmeade station. They came out, and saw a large man yelling, "First years, over here" in a Scottish accent. They followed him and he led them to ferries. "No more than four to a boat" yelled the have Giant. The ferries started moving in the lake, and they saw a most beautiful sight they had ever seen. There was the Hogwarts Castle in all his glory on the hill. The ferries reached the stairs and they followed the giant towards the castle. They reached large doors, and the giant stepped forward and knocked the gates loudly. The Gates opened and new students saw an old lady waiting for them. "the first years, Professor McGonagall" the woman nodded and said "Thank you Hagrid, I will take them from here "and turned to students "Welcome to Hogwarts," said Professor McGonagall. "The start-of-term banquet will begin shortly, but before you take your seats in the Great Hall, you will be sorted into your houses. The Sorting is a very important ceremony because, while you are here, your house will be something like your family within Hogwarts. You will have classes with the rest of your house, sleep in your house dormitory and spend free time in your house common four houses are called Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw and Slytherin. Each house has its own noble history and each has produced outstanding witches and wizards. While you are at Hogwarts, your triumphs will earn your house points, while any rule-breaking will lose house points. At the end of the year, the house with the most points is awarded the House Cup, a great honor. I hope each of you will be a credit to whichever house becomes Sorting Ceremony will take place in a few minutes in front of the rest of the school. I suggest you all smarted yourselves up as much as you can while you are waiting, I will return when we are ready for you," said Professor McGonagall. "Please wait quietly." With that said, Professor went back in the hall.
Corvus was idily chatting with Draco when he heard "My brother told me, we have to fight trolls to get sorted". Corvus and Draco looked at each other and barked out a laugh. "haha… that's the best joke, I have heard." Exclaimed Corvus. "Do you really think they would let first years fight a bloody troll?" said Corvus and laughed harder, joined by several others. The boy became red like his hair and shouted "SHUT UP". "Oh, temper. Let's look at you, red hair, freckles, worn out robes. You must be a weasley. My Father told me you all, weasleys having more children than they could afford" smirked Draco.
The said weasley went even redder and shouted "at least I don't have a Death Eater for a Father." Draco was about to retort with a punch only stopped by Corvus, "Leave him, he is not worth it." The rest of the time went uneventful, except Ghosts scaring students. Soon McGonagall came and said "Move along now, Sorting ceremony is about to start". She led them to huge gates and opened it. Inside Corvus saw four tables and students sitting on them, he guessed they must be the house tables. He looked up and saw a very beautiful ceiling. He groaned when he heard the bushy haired girl say something about the ceiling. 'good for nothing, showoff muggleborn' thought Corvus. They reached the end of the hall, where there was a hat on a table. Suddenly the hat started to sing. Corvus for the major part ignored it and looked around. He saw Marcus and Roger smiling at him on the slytherin Table. He gave them a nod and looked in front when Professor McGonagall came and said "When I call your name, you will put on the hat and sit on the stool to be sorted".
"I will kill my brother" exclaimed a red haired boy and Corvus snorted at his stupidity. "Abott, Hannah" announced professor. A nervous looking walked up and sat on the stool. Professor placed the hat on her head and the hat yelled "HUFFLEPUFF". The girl excitedly jumped and ran to the clapping table. Next was Bones Susan who also went in hufflepuff.
Corvus looked up when professor said "Black Corvus". The whole hall started muttering, teachers leaned forward to look more clearly. Corvus smirked he stepped forward and stopped on the second step, he then turned, and looked towards Hufflepuff table and winked at the three girls he met in the train. They had their jaws on the ground, as they saw who Corvus was. He then sat on the stool gracefully and waited for sorting. He felt the hat touch him. then heard 'hmmm…difficult, VERY difficult. Plenty of courage, but won't act without a proper plan, cunning and a thirst to prove yourself. Gryffindor is certainly out. Loyal, but not the level of Hufflepuuf, so it is certainly out, you consider Knowledge as Power, and love for books…hmmm… oh you have old sal's gift. Then it certainly would be'
"SLYTHERIN" yelled the hat…
