Willow, Snitch, Stella, Pippa, Viahn, Storme and Trang all said their goodbyes at went to sit at their house tables. Viahn and Willow went to the Ravenclaw table, Trang and Storme went to the Hufflepuff table, Snitch and Pippa to Gryffindor and Stella to Slytherin.

They were all really hungry, so they missed most of the Sorting thinking about food. The only part they heard was when Albus Potter and Pippa's brother Dale were sorted into Gryffindor. Snitch was fuming, not only did Albus Potter come to Hogwarts, he got sorted into HER house! But she didn't really mind about Pippa's brother. Pippa and James were delighted to have Albus and Dale here with them.

Finally, the sorting was over and they could eat. Over at the Gryffindor table, Snitch was telling James and Pippa about The Room of Requirement.

"You have to be REALLY in need of something to find it" explained Snitch

"Yeah, my Dad and Mum said the they used to it practice their spells when they formed Dumbledore's Army, to fight against Voldemort" said James

"Oh, cool! Rose's Mum and Dad were talking about that when I was at their place too" Pippa told them

At the Ravenclaw table, Lysander, Lorcan and Willow were discussing the rumours about Professor Grassus killing wizards and witches. Lorcan and Lysander seemed to think they were true, but Willow thought differently.

"If she did, why would Professor Weasley hire her as our teacher?"

"Well, he obviously didn't know, did he!" snapped Lorcan. He was very touchy when it came to people criticizing his beliefs

"Yeah, I mean, why would you tell him? Why would you tell anyone? But, to each their own" said Lysander, he wasn't as angry.

Over at the Slytherin table, Stella was getting teased by Scorpius" friends

"Ha-ha! You loooooooooove Scorpius, don't you Flint?" sneered one of the Slytherins

"Yeah, I bet you even want to marry him!" taunted another

This kept on going until the Headmaster, Professor Weasley, silenced the children for his speech.
