Chapter 6-The toad of Hogwarts
As the Thestrals were introduced by Luna, as she and Neville got on to the carriage the horses had drew, as if nothing was there, before Harry and Ginny joined them, then for 2 minutes Ron and Hermione got in and the horse and carriage pulled away, as it headed for the school. At the school however, as they wait for the students to arrive, while they waited: Dumbledore and to a common extent Snape, were getting irritated, as they now had to deal with the customary wait of the First year students to finish their boat rides and wondering why they decided to keep that tradition, knowing full well that now days it is monumentally unsafe, when you consider that the students are immature and arrogant, therefore problems will happen.
Back in the carriages, Harry and his friends(which now included Luna and Neville) sat in silence, as they made their way slowly towards the school and the approaching school year that Harry had been dreading, since the weight of depression over Cedric death, (while he, with the help of Ginny, knew was not his fault and that Cedric would not blame him for it) was removed from his shoulders, got immediately replaced by the anger and betrayal he felt towards Dumbledore, when he discovered the deception towards the war and how Dumbledore was combating it, rather the lack of combating it, to make it last a long while. Now after a 20 minute ride to the front gate, Harry and his friends exited the carriage and walked to the remaining distance to the castle on foot.
At the same time Harry and company were heading for the main doors, Dumbledore was now sitting in his seat, calm and collected on the outside, while inside Dumbledore was a mass of furious frustration, which if you looked hard enough you would find that his inner self was showing, as to big glowing blue eyes, that slowly graduated to venomous purple, 'Tradition,' he thought in a poisonous manner, before he began to think, 'Hurry up my pawn, we have not got all day,' rather furiously, before his heart then stopped, as when he notice Harry's group enter and take their seats, though it wasn't the appearance Harry that stopped his heart, but the gesture between him and Ginny, that was causing his cardiac arrest, as Harry and Ginny were holding hands, while showing the appearance of the fact they had been dating, after getting his heart in control Dumbledore began planning furiously of a way to separate them.
As Harry and his friends of Gryffindor sat down, Harry himself begin to feel as if he was watched by three people, 2 of them he felt hatred and malice from, while the third was a feeling of panic and fear, looking in the direction of the Head table, seeing the obvious one that primarily sent a hated look: Severus Snape, starring with such malice, that was when he notice the second hated look, from a toad like woman and could see the reason in her eyes was: Voldemort was alive and her pleasure buddy (Fudge [A/N Gross that it is but would you say it wasn't true]) was wrong, also he had recognized her appearance, 'Undersecretary Umbridge? Oh how the mighty have fallen,' he thought with a chuckle, before heading in search of the third feeling: Panic and Fear, but the feeling disappeared. In the mean time, Delores Umbridge was furious, as she glared fumingly the Boy-Who-Lived and Lied, the 'lied' in the title was her addition thinking that even with the events of: the Death Eater attack on Diagon Alley and on the train, as well as the dark creature/dragon attack, couldn't conclusively give evidence that He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named, return from the dead, but just simply people whom weren't able to let go of the pass and were insane.
Time skip Sorting
After the sorting of the new students of Hogwarts, Dumbledore addressed the school at large, informing/reminding the newer/older students of the rules and regulations of the schools safety code, also listing of the items Banned by their caretaker: Argus Filch, before been interrupted by the fake cough of: Umbridge, whom then went on the explain her role in the school and how she believed that they would become good friends with her, of course that had been met by a, 'that's likely,' from the pranksters, which she ignore due to not hearing them and continued on to say that unsafe practiced of magic is high prohibit, but most it was tuned out and forgotten, so several minutes after she said her peace, Dumbledore re-addressed the mass and dismissed them to their dorms.
Once up in the Gryffindor commonroom, Harry and his discussed speech given by both Dumbledore and Umbridge, where Ron was able to make sense of Dumbledore's hidden message (even if it was only a dumbed down version) of: Okay my pawns, do what I say when I say it and you are a light side wizard, so there you won't go to jail, but Umbridge's however was completely lost on Ron, though he was put out of his misery when Harry said, "Ron, her speech meant that we are not allowed lean magic practically and will simply be all theory, meaning she'll be forcing us to do nothing but read the course assigned books," causing Rons visage to change from confused to understanding to horror, and by the end of the explanation, Ron faces began to look like the a vision of abstract terror, which resolve them to behave infront of her, while find a solution their problem and then headed for the land of nod.
Meanwhile in the Headmasters office, after the students' dismissal as, Dumbledore looked over the various – well shit, he had collected over the years of his life and others were stolen and glamoured to a different form to hide it, for you see they are magical artifacts' from famous and powerful light side wizards (Please note that Dumbledore is gay and believes that witches/women are only good for male entertainment, housework and continuing the male family name), where Dumbledore sieves threw them, before retrieve a heart like device he had pilfered from a Greek tomb, this artifact was titled the: Venus Elenktí̱s, which was said to be a physical form of the ability gifted by: Aphrodite the Goddess of Love, which was the power to control the feelings of love that a person could feel for another, e.g. say if someone like: Harry and Ginny were in love, then this device could be used to redirect that love to someone else, as it was unable to stop love, so with that in mind Dumbledore began to ponder and scheme his way into plan of delivery to them both and a way of ensuring the effectiveness of the plan.
As soon as the next morning rolled around in Gryffindor, Harry by default and due to his upbringing with the Dursleys, woke up with the crows of a rooster and the sun blaring threw the slight gap in the curtains, knowing he wasn't getting back to sleep in more, Harry got out of bed and began his morning rituals, to the snores of his dormmates. After showering and changing, Harry collected his bookbag (filled with all of his course books, not knowing which he'll need at during the day) and wand, before heading for the commonroom, where he found Ginny and Hermione already up and ready for the day, so with a kiss to his girlfriend and good morning from Hermione, he then began to debate whether or not to wait for Ron and risk there been less food or head down without him and let him be late, 2 hours later and it was decided that Harry and Ginny were to head down and save a spot them, while electing Hermione to throw Ron out of his bed and into a shower.
