Chapter 2: The Sorting
They were led to the Great Hall and moments later, it was time for the sorting. One by one, their classmates were sorted. Then, it was Kilee's turn. Albus watched with pity as the now very green, sick looking Kilee walked up to the hat. She put it on and one moment later, the hat opened its mouth and called out, "Ravenclaw!"
Next Scorpius Malfoy was called up, and he was placed in…"Gryffindor!"
More and more people were sorted, and soon in was Albus's turn. He walked up and put on the hat. The moment he did, he heard a little voice in his head. "Hmm… another Potter, eh? You're brother was almost exactly like his grandfather, but you… hmm."
Albus felt his stomach clench in worry. "Um, Mr. Hat?" he thought timidly.
"Yes?" the hat said back, obviously amused.
"Can I just be in Gryffindor?" Albus thought.
"No," said the hat.
"What?" Albus thought in shock. But his dad had said…
"I'm just pulling your chain. The fact that you asked showed enough bravery. Gryffindor!" said the hat.
Grinning, Albus walked over and plopped next to Scorpius, who was sill soaking wet, and who let out a small sigh. As Rose walked to the front, Scorpius muttered, "She better not be in our house."
As soon as the hat touched her, however, it yelled, "Slytherin!" Rose screamed.
So did Scorpius and Kilee, "Yes!" the both shouted. Kilee immediately blushed and sat down when Rose glared at them, but Scorpius just beamed.
Albus watched in horror as his cousin walked to the Slytherin table and sat down. Rose, in Slytherin? Uncle Ron would have a heart attack. As Albus pondered Uncle Ron's reaction, he half heard Scorpius explain to the rest of the school that he didn't like Rose and was just glad she wasn't in his house. Albus didn't want to think about what Rose would do in retaliation.
James leaned over to Albus. "Slytherin?" he said in disbelief.
"Don't ask me," Albus shrugged.
"She was a Slytherin all over. I'd know, I live with them," Scorpius informed them, glaring at Rose, who was now laughing nervously at something a fellow Slytherin had said.
Professor Sprout, the headmistress, had stood up and was about to speak. Before she could though, Albus saw Rose point her want and mutter something. A poor Hufflepuff stood up and began to sing, loudly and boldly.
"I love mushrooms!" the Hufflepuff sang, looking confused. Rose giggled. Albus watched half entertained as a glaring Scorpius stalked over to the laughing Rose. Kilee had hurried over to the poor Hufflepuff flipping through a spell book as she went. She found a spell, but before she could use it, she joined the Hufflepuff in song. They kept going until Scorpius punched the boy next to Rose and threatened to snap her want. Then they stopped.
Professor Sprout, who had been talking the whole time, said "Let the feast begin."
And with much confusion (as the Slytherin boy and Scorpius began a fist fight) it did.
About 10 minutes later, Scorpius returned to the table. He was grinning and sporting a cut lip. Albus shook his head, while James roared with laughter and congratulated Scorpius. A half hour later, as Albus drifted off to sleep, he vaguely thought that this would be a very interesting year.
How right he was.
