Gryffinclaw?
Emma's P.O.V.
"Gryffinclaw!" yelled the Sorting Hat. Dumbledore instantly had a dark look on his face as he got up and took my hand ."Miss Granger, would you accompany me to my office?" he asked. I nodded, I mean you can't say no to the headmaster. He led me to his office and said "Licorice Snap," and the huge gargoyle opened a staircase I walked up it and went into a beautiful room with artifacts that looked like they dated back to, Godric Gryffindor knows when. I heard someone say that in the hall so I kinda picked it up.
"Headmaster," I heard in a cold voice. I turned around and saw a man with long, black, greasy hair who had a cold look on his face. "Yes Severus I summoned you, we have another." said Dumbledore, he looked worried, but I could tell he was trying to hide it for my sake. "Another!?" exclaimed Professor McGonagall. When did she get in here? I wondered. "Excuse me," I asked, they all looked at me. "What am I another of exactly?" "Sweet Emma," said Dumbledore, "You are an inter-house student."
"What's that?" I asked. "That means that you fit in two or more Houses. We have had Slytherin and Ravenclaw very often, but never Gryffindor and Ravenclaw," said Professor McGonagall matter-of-factly. "So, which House do I go to?" I asked worried. Would they send me home? Where would I fit? Questions ran through my head until Dumbledore said, "You may choose," What?" I asked. "You may choose your House because the Sorting Hat could not." Dumbledore repeated.
"I choose Gryffindor," Dumbledore opened his mouth to say something but I continued, "If I must, if I can choose both, then I will," Dumbledore nodded. Then "Severus" said something, "Headmaster, may I suggest that this is a good idea, the girl can fulfill her full potential in both classes." he said it in a slimy way, as if he was a snake. He must be Head of Slytherin. "I agree with Severus," said Dumbledore. "You will be given your schedule soon Emma, for now, go enjoy the feast with your friends and you may follow either Gryffindor or Ravenclaw's prefects to the common room."
Dumbledore dismissed me and the second I got out, I ran into Hermione, Ron, and Harry. "What happened?" they asked. "Well, " I started and explained everything to them. "Bloody hell," muttered Ron once I was done. "Yeah" I said. We walked back to the Great Hall and somehow, Dumbledore, Professor McGonagall, and "Severus" were already there. "Who's that?" I asked pointing to "Severus"
"That's Snape. Potions teacher, Head if Slytherin, and nasty to everyone. He never was interested in Potions though, everyone knows that he's after Quirrell's job. Defense Against the Dark Arts." said Percy, Ron's older brother. I nodded. I decided to sit at the Gryffindor table for today. I heard Dumbledore cough he stood up. All eyes were on him. He opened his arms, as if he was happy to see us all.
"Welcome!" he said, "Welcome to a new year at Hogwarts! Before we begin our banquet, I would like to say a few words. And here they are: Nitwit! Blubber! Oddment! Tweak! Thank you!" he sat back down. Everyone clapped and cheered, so I joined along.I heard Harry ask if he was mad, Percy responded saying he was a little mad. "Em? You going to eat?" asked my sister. I stared wide eyed at the table.
There was every food imaginable on the table! Potatoes, rice, sauce, turkey, peas, carrots, ice cream and so much more. I got EVERYTHING! I saw Harry clutch his scar. "You okay?" I asked. "Fine," he said. Dumbledore stood up again and we were all silent. "Ahem, just a few more words now that we are all fed and watered. I have a few start-of-term notices to give you. First year pupils should note that the forest on grounds is forbidden to all pupils. An a few of our older students would do well to remember that as well"
Dumbledore looked over to the Weasley twins. "I have also been asked my Mr. Filch, the caretaker, to remind you that no magic shall be used between classes in the corridors. Quidditch trials will be held second week of term. Anyone interested in playing for their House teams should contact Madam Hooch. Finally, I should tell you that the third floor corridor on the right hand side is out of bounds to everyone who does not wish to die a very painful death." he said seriously.
I looked at Harry, and he looked confused too. Ron had told me about Quidditch and it seemed like fun.
I walked over to the other side of the table because they had some more potatoes over there. I plopped myself down right by the Weasley twins. They eyed me curiously, but almost immediately after, they stuck out their hands.
"We're Gred and Forge Weasley, and you are?" One of them said.
"Emma, Emma Granger," I said, shaking both of their hands.
"Hmm, that's too boring. You are now Evangeline." "Gred" said.
"Oh no I liked Emma," I said in fake innocence and annoyance. I stood up because I saw Dumbledore about to make the announcement to dismiss us. "Bye Fred and George," I smirked as I turned on my heels to go back. I quickly made my way back to our bench as Dumbledore made his way to the podium.
He dismissed us and all the food disappeared. Percy led us to the common room and to our dorms. I was sharing with Hermione, Lavender Brown, Parvati Patil, and two other girls I didn't talk to. I changed into sleepwear and surprisingly, all of my stuff was already in the dorm. I got in bed nd though This will be a great year, and I drifted off to sleep.
