As we walked down the aisle I heard Hermione talk about the ceiling being charmed.
We stopped at the front then Dumbledore started a speech.
"I have a few start of term notices I wish to announce, first years pleas note that the dark forest is strictly forbidden to all students."
I looked at Ron. "Is he trying to bait us to go inside, he's saying it like a challenge."
"I agree."
"Our care taker has asked me to remind you that the third-floor corridor on the right hand side is out of bounds to everyone who does not wish to die from a most painful death, thank you."
I looked at Ron again. "Ok that one truly felt like a challenge to me."
"Do you want to die."
"No, I think he's just hiding something, we wouldn't die."
McGonagall cleared her throat and stared at us.
(You already got in trouble.)
(Did not she was just staring in this direction, you don't know it was at us.)
(Tell yourself that.)
(I will thank you very much.)
"When I call your name you will come forth and I shall place the sorting hat on to your head and you'll be sorted into your house.
Hermione Granger!"
She was talking to herself while she slowly walked up.
Ron leaned over. "Mental that one I'm telling you."
"Be nice she's nervous just like you."
The sorting hat yelled. "GRYFFINDOR!"
Then she walked to the Gryffindor table.
"Draco Malfoy!"
He walked up and before the hat could fully be seated on his head. "SLYTHERIN!"
A couple more went up and got sorted then suddenly.
"That hurts."
It was my scar.
Ron looked at me confused.
"You ok?"
"Yeah, it's nothing."
(I thought you isolated the soul piece way back when I was a baby, how am I feeling pain from my scar?)
(I truly don't know, everything should be fine and he should have no effect on you.)
(Apparently he does.)
"Harry Potter!"
Oh that's me.
I walked up and sat down.
And as I walked I heard almost everyone murmur and my name kept coming up in there conversation.
She sat the hat on my head.
("Oh, this is new a student who I can't see through all there memories, is there a way you could allow me to see them so I can sort you properly?")
("I'm sorry, I'm going to have to deny you that right, to many things that I don't want to get out.")
("It's fine my boy I won't tell a soul.")
("That didn't change my mind, still sorry tho.")
("Well I can't sort you properly, I guess you will just have to pick yourself.")
("Perfectly fine with me if I have to choose I'd like to go to.")
McGonagall got impatient. "You decide what house he's going to get?"
The hat spoke out loud. "Sorry about that "GRYFFINDOR."
I walked down to the Gryffindor table and when I sat down the Weasley twin were cheering. "We got Potter. we got Potter."
I got loads of attention from everyone congratulating me.
After everyone settled down the sorting continued.
After everyone was properly sorted food appeared in front of us and we all dug in.
After a while the ghosts decided to make an appearance.
Sir Nicklaus decided to talk to our table.
He talked to everyone and eventually Hermione ask him "why are you called nearly headless?"
Then he pull his head almost all the way off.
I asked. "Have you ever tried to pull it the rest of the way off?"
"You might be on to something my boy, I have to go I have to try it."
Hermione looked at me. "Why did you tell him that it's disgusting."
"To make him happy, you can see how sad he his that he can't make it into the group due to his head being attached."
After we all finished we got shown how to get to the dorms and the password to get inside.
We walked inside and went to our rooms.
"I call the center one." Then I ran and jumped on the bed.
"I'm tired I'll talk to you all tomorrow."
Then I closed the blinds surrounding the bed.
Then I went inside the ring.
When I sat down on the couch I called for Memsy.
"My training room set up for spells?"
"Memsy did her job, room is ready for Master."
"Thank you your the best, you enjoy the sorting ceremony."
"It was very interesting I have never been able to see it before, I'm honored to be able to see it."
"It's nothing there will be plenty of interesting things to see now that we are at Hogwarts."
I went and practiced some spells for a while then when I got bored of that I went to my library and tried to find anything remotely related to my scar to try to find out why it's hurting when I believed that problem was solved from the very beginning.
After a couple of hours of reading and finding nothing to help me I have it up and went to bed.
The next morning Memsy woke me up early like normal and I went for a light run on my treadmill then cleaned up and popped back onto my Hogwarts bed ready to go.
Today we have no classes, I'm guessing it's so we can wander around and get the know our classes and the Castle.
I looked at Ron and he was snoring and looked like he wanted to sleep some more so I just went to eat breakfast by myself.
Shortly after I started to eat everyone started to roll in.
Eventually Ron showed up.
"Hey, why didn't you wake me, we could have came down together."
"You kidding me I was afraid to get my arm bitten off, you were snoring so loud I was afraid to touch you and get my arm swallowed."
"I'm not that bad am I?"
Everyone in our room nodded there head."
"Good to know I'll talk to my mum."
I seen Hermione walk in and walk past us to sit by herself.
"Hermione! Come sit next to me I won't bite."
"Are you sure?"
"Of course, you don't need to be by yourself."
Unfortunately I was the only one to talk to her but we all sat and talked and when we were close to finishing I asked everyone "what they are going to do."
Ron and mostly everyone said they are going to just sit in the dorm and play games.
"I plan on exploring the castle to know where to go tomorrow."
Hermione asked. "Can I join? I planned on doing that myself."
"I have no problems with that."
I looked at everyone else. "No one else want to join?"
Everyone said no.
"Your loss, let's go then."
I then grabbed her hand and we walked out.
We explored most of the castle all day, I was looking for the Room of Requirements, and I think I found where it's located and I plan on going back by myself later.
Before the day ended we ended up in the library and we started to quiz each other. I let her win a few, when I can pull any memory to the forefront it's easy to win something like that.
As night was approaching we made our way back to the dorms.
I opened the door for her and she walked inside. "I had a really fun day, thank you, people really don't want to be friends with me so I don't have this type of day that often."
"Any time you want to do it again, i'll be around.
Goodnight."
"I'll take you up on that.
Goodnight yourself."
