"Granger Hermione!" called Professor Mgonagle, Hermione walked to the hat with trembling legs, as she sat on the stool her eyes met Ginny's, who smiled reassuringly at her. The hat was on her head for a few seconds before,
"Ravenclaw!" it shouted,
"No surprise there..." said Ron, looking relieved, "she's a nightmare." Damian nodded, the sorting continued until,
"Longbottom, Neville." the boy practically ran to the stool, the hat dropped onto his head and several long minutes later,
"Ravenclaw!" the boy was pink with pride, he ran to the table before doubling back and taking off the sorting hat, to the hall's amusement,
"Potter, Damian." the hall went quiet, whispers circled from table to table,
"Boy who lived... Potter..." Damian swaggered up to the Hat, before jamming it onto his head, he at there for a few minutes before it called out,
"Gryfindore!" the boy yanked the hat off and ran to his table amidst loud applause,
"Potter, Harry." Ginny patted Harry of the back and he walked calmly to the hat, the hat was on his head a few seconds before,
"Ravenclaw." the boy walked over to his table and sat opposite Hermione and Neville. Several sortings later,
"Weasley Ginny." Ginny stuffed her hands into her pockets and walked at a leisurely pace to the hat, the moment it touched her head it yelled,
"Ravenclaw!" Ginny tugged the had off and dashed over and sat next to Harry, who grinned widely at her,
"Weasley, Ronald" Ron shakily walked to the hat, the moment it touched his head, it yelled,
"Gryfindore."
"I told you!" yelled Ginny over the clapping, "No other house would want him!" Harry laughed.
When the sorting was over, Dumbledore stood up,
"I have the pleasure of introducing two new Professors, Professor Potter and Potter." Lily and James stood up smiling. "They will be teaching the younger half of the school Flying," he nodded at James, "and Charms." he nodded at Lily, "Whilst professor McGonagle and Flitwick help the older students with their OWLs and NEWTs"
"crap..." said Harry, banging his head repeatedly against the table. Dumbledore raised his hands and the table was filled with food,
"eat up" said the Headmaster, Ginny grabbed the back of Harry's robes to stop him from head butting a plate of pie.
