*third person POV*
Professor McGonagall leads everyone through two large doors and into the Great Hall, where there are four long tables with thousands of students, as well as floating candles. The roof appears to be the sky.
"It's not real, the ceiling. It's just bewitched to look like the night sky. I read about it in Hogwarts: A History" Hermione whispers to Maya.McGonagall leads the first-years to the front where the Sorting Hat lies on the stool.
"Will you wait along here, please? Now, before we begin, Professor Dumbledore would like to say a few words" explains McGonagall.Dumbledore rises from the main table.
"I have a few start of term notices I wish to announce. The first years please note that the dark forest is strictly forbidden to all students. Also, our caretaker, Mr. Filch" he pauses and gestures to a ragged old man, called Mr. Argus Filch, with his cat with red eyes, called Mrs. Norris.
"has asked me to remind you that the 3rd floor corridor on the right hand side is out of bounds to everyone who does not wish to die a most painful death. Thank you" Dumbledore finishes and sits down.
All the students look down seriously, except for Harry, who's face practically says 'what the hell'.
"When I call your name, you will come forth, I shall place the sorting hat on your head, and you will be sorted into your houses. Hermione Granger" calls McGonagall.
"Oh, no. Okay, relax" Hermione whispers to herself as she goes up.
"Mental that one, I'm telling you" Ron whispers to Harry and Kaida.Harry nods in agreement. Kaida frowns.
Hermione sits on the stool and McGonagall places the sorting hat on her head
"Ah, right then...hmm...right. Okay...Gryffindor" the hat decides.The students cheer; Hermione jumps off with a smile.
"Draco Malfoy" calls McGonagall.Draco saunters up proudly. Kaida gulps, she would be next.
The tattered hat nearly freaks before touching down on Draco's head.
"SLYTHERIN" it bellows, before even touching Draco's head.The students cheer, not as loudly.
"There isn't a witch or wizard who went bad who wasn’t in Slytherin" hisses Ron, to Harry and Kaida.
"Kaida Malfoy" calls McGonagall.
Kaida stays rooted to the spot.
"Kaida Malfoy" McGonagall calls again.
Kaida stays still, Harry and Ron glance at her.
"Kaida Narcissa Malfoy" shouts McGonagall. Kaida can't move, the boys think she's someone else, and what if she's placed in Slytherin.
"Mr Malfoy, could you please find your sister" asks McGonagall.
"Kaida hides behind the Muggle name Smart, she's no twin of mine" says Draco cooly.
Harry and Ron turn to face Kaida, looks of betrayal on their faces.
"You- but- NO" shouts Ron.
"Kaida Smart then! I don't care who you say you are, COME AND GET SORTED" says McGonagall firmly.
Kaida slowly walks up to the hat.
"Hmmm, not a bit like the other Malfoys are you Miss Smart. No, I sense great courage in you... GRYFFINDOR" the hat yells.
Kaida breathes out a sigh of relief.
She goes to sit at the Gryffindor table.
Ron looks shocked that a Malfoy could be a Gryffindor. Harry doesn't seem to mind."Susan Bones" calls McGonagall.
A small, redhead goes up. Harry looks around and notices a black greasy haired, pale man, called, Severus Snape, giving him sinister looks. His scar hurts, so does Pandora's."Ahh" they both hiss and put their hands on their foreheads in pain.
"Harry, what is it" asks Ron concerned.
"Nothing... nothing, I'm fine" says Harry.
"Let's see...I know...Hufflepuff" the hat decides.
"Ronald Weasley" calls McGonagall.
Ron gulps and walks up. He sits down and the hat is put on."Ha! Another Weasley. I know just what to do with you... Gryffindor" yells the hat.
The students cheer as Ron sighs in relief.
Ron sits cautiously next to Kaida.
"Harry Potter" calls McGonagall.
Everything goes silent. Harry walks up and sits down on the stool. The Sorting Hat is placed on his head."Hmm...difficult, very difficult. Plenty of courage I see, not a bad mind, either. There's talent, oh yes, and a thirst to prove yourself. But where to put you" asks the hat.
"Not Slytherin. Not Slytherin" whispers Harry.
"Not Slytherin, eh? Are you sure? You could be great, you know. It’s all here in your head. And Slytherin will help you on the way to greatness! There's no doubt about that. No" asks the hat.
"Not Slytherin...anything but Slytherin" Harry whispers.
"Well, if you're sure... better be... GRYFFINDOR" shouts the hat.
There is an immense cheering and Harry goes to the Gryffindor table."We got a Potter! We got a Potter" chant the Weasley twins.
Harry sits down at the table. He looks at Dumbledore, who lifts up his goblet and slightly waves it, as if he was wishing congratulations."Haylee Potter" calls McGonagall.
Pandora walks up to the hat.
"It's Pandora actually" she says as she sits down.
"Hmm, not in the least like you brother" says the hat.
Everyone in the hall listens intently after that remark.
"No not a bit like him" says the hat.
"Slytherin" whispers Pandora.
"Yes I quite agree SLYTHERIN" the hat shouts.
Pandora goes to sit with Draco.
"Glad one of the Potters is sensible" Draco hisses.
"Maya Potter" calls McGonagall.
This time everyone is confused.
"What" shouts Fred.
Maya walks slowly up to the hat.
"Hmm, different again. Creative, witty, a ready mind, you belong in... RAVENCLAW" shouts the hat.
Maya.
All the Potters were split up.
