Summary: It's year three at Hogwarts for Harry and his friends. There is a very surprising new rule that is going shake up the houses, quiet literally. Who will it affect and who will it not?
News year at Hogwarts. New classes, housemates, chances, and friends. The new students have just been sorted and join their new housemates. "This year there are a few new changes." Starts Dumbeldore. Everyone starts to conversate between them trying to figure out what it could possibly be. Dumbledore raises is wand to his throat which causes him to become louder. "SILENCE!" The whole great hall jumps and comes to complete silence almost immediately. " a new rule has been put into place starting this year" he added, "Professor McGonagall will explain." She quickly explains that the new rule is every two years the students will revisit the sorting hat. They will be resorted accordingly. "If you are resorted, you are to pack your things and move to your new house immediately" McGonagall said. That meant you get sorted your first year and every two years after that that you are at Hogwarts. All the third year students lined up to be resorted. Everyone was nervous, but excited all the same. One by one the students were sorted once again. It got to Harry and he was confident that he was staying in Gryffindor house. They sorting hat paused almost puzzled. And yelled the one word that nobody had expected to hear for Harry. Parseltongue! The entire room had gasped. The hat continued and yelled SLYTHERIN! Nobody could believe what was said. Harry himself could hardly believe it, he tried to get her to do it again, that maybe it was it was a mistake. She said no, that the hat is never wrong, it is never mistaken. This meant he was now a Slytherin. He got up with his head down low and went to the Gryffindor common room to pack up his things. The line continues down, so far Harry is the only one to have been switched Draco Malfoy is up next "Potter is so unlucky now, he has to deal with me daily now" he says under his breath. Draco sits on the stool, the hat is placed on his head as quick as it is placed the hat shouts GRYFFINDOR! Draco seems disgusted. "How is this even possible? It has to be wrong. It has to be mistaken." Draco said. This one nobody could explain, nobody that is except Snape. "Turns out you do care about others Mr. Malfoy. You are now a member of Gryffindor" Snape said without as much as a flinch. Draco left to pack his this and switch over to his new house. He had ran into Harry on his way to the Slytherin common room. Draco tried not to seem sad about the situation. "What are you doing Malfoy?" asked Harry. "Like it's any of your business Potter, but it looks like you and I have switched places now. So if you would step aside I'd like to get my things and get out of here." Draco seemed to be taking it well, but on the inside he wanted to cry. He now had to live with and learn to get along with the people he picked on for so long. Draco just continued on his way to finish grabbing his things and switch to his new house. Harry went in after Draco had left and settled into his new house, Slytherin. Neither one felt liked they belonged, but they decided to make the best of it. As the day went on and Harry and Draco had now switched their robes into their new colors, they went to their classes, only to find out that their seats had been switched. Together Harry and Draco muttered "This is just not my day." They went through their day of classes with nothing feeling right. When it was meal time they kept forgetting that they had to sir with their houses and not their friends. Next day was the day they had both been preparing for, Quidditch day. However, there was a slight flaw in the plan. They now had to play on their new house teams with their new teammates, or so they thought. "Mr. Potter and Mr. Malfoy, since you have not had the chance to practice with your new teams, you will sit out this match. Henceforth it is canceled and will be rescheduled." Dumbledore had started "instead we will have the Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff match." There was a sigh of relief from both Draco and Harry. Over the next two weeks they worked really hard during practice to try and be as good with their new teammates as they were with their old. Finally the day came, it was match day. Both teams played really hard and a first ever event happened, Draco and Harry had grabbed the golden snitch at the exact same time. Slytherin had won by only ten points. The game ender had boosted both boys' confidences. Over the remainder of the year, they didn't let the fact that they were in two separate houses from their friends ruin anything. They learned to get along with their new housemates, new friends and each other. All thanks to a few new Hogwarts firsts and a fluke accident in a Quidditch match.
