The New Witch(HP fanfic)Year 1-2

(15)Year 1:House Cup Winner

In the hospital wing the next day, I look over and see Harry's lying in bed with his arm bandaged while my head is bandaged with my bracelet on the stand next to me so I put it on.

When Harry awakens, puts on his glasses, and sits up. There were cards and candy all over.But I had the same amount from Draco.

Dumbledore approached him and I felt like I was at my old house unwanted.So I snuck out with my normal school clothes.

-1 hour later-

 At the Great Hall.

JaVa with her head still bandaged enters a corridor where up on the stairs, Draco and his Goons are talking.They stop when they see JaVa and lean over the railing.

We see the Great Hall, full of students eating and talking with each other.There are green and silver banners with the Slytherin symbol above their heads, already indicating the house with the most points.

Dumbledore gives a slight nod to professor McGonagall, who then clinks her spoon to her glass, to ask attention from the students.The crowd falls silent. Dumbledore stands up and speaks with his magically magnified voice.

Dumbledore says."Another year, gone! Now, as I understand it, the house cup needs to be awarded and the points stand thus.In 4th place: Gryffindor, with 312 points!''

There's a medium applause from the crowd. "In 3rd place: Hufflepuff, with 352 points!"

 The applause for Hufflepuff is slightly louder than the clapping for Gryffindor. "2nd: Ravenclaw, with 426 points!"

 Applause again, this time with a slight cheer from some students. "And in 1st place, with 472 points, Slytherin house!''

A loud roar rises from the Slytherin table, students stand up and clap for themselves. Hermione scowls with her hand to her cheek; Snape applauds the students of his house.JaVa was angery they wasn't happy for her atleast.

Draco sneers at Ron. "Yes, well done Slytherin, well done Slytherin. However, recent events must be taken into account and I have a few last minute points to award." 

Some faces at the Gryffindor table rise hopefully. "To Miss Hermione Granger, for the cool use of intellect while others were in grave peril 50 points!''

Hermione looks surprised, while the other Gryffindor students applaud her. Harry gave Hermione a pat on the back. Malfoy, Crabbe and Goyle don't like what's happening. But it made JaVa feel left out. 

Hermione looks at Hagrid, who looks back at her with a proud smile. "2nd, to Mr. Ronald Weasley, for the best played game of chess that Hogwarts has seen these many years, 50 points!"

 Ron looks even more surprised than Hermione did and the Gryffindor table is applauding even louder. "And 3rd, to Mr. Harry Potter, for pure love and outstanding courage, I award Gryffindor house: 60 points!" 

The Gryffindors cheer again, this time even louder than before. Malfoy has a cringing look on his face, while Harry sees a proud professor McGonagall at the teacher's table. Hermione, who has done some quick math, whispers to her fellow students.

 Hermione says."We're tied with Slytherin!" 

Now, the Gryffindors look really hopeful, as Dumbledore hasn't finished talking yet. "And finally it takes a great deal of bravery to stand up to your enemies, but a great deal more to stand up to your friends.I award 10 points to Neville Longbottom!" 

Neville can't believe what he heard and the Gryffindors that heard Hermione's whisper cheer the loudest.

Malfoy looks quite uncertain now and JaVa looks down knowing no one will know what happened there. "Assuming my calculations are correct, I believe that a change of decoration is in order!"

 He claps and motions his hands towards the Slytherin banners, where they flap heavily, until the banners have changed completely to red and gold with the Gryffindor symbol.

He then says"Gryffindor wins the House Cup!"The Great Hall explodes with applause, not only from the Gryffindors, but also from the Ravenclaws and the Hufflepuffs, because they are glad that, for the first time in 7 years, someone other than Slytherin has won the House Cup.

Hagrid can't help himself to also cheer, and all students except the Slytherins throw their hats in the air, while Malfoy angrily throws his on the table in defeat.

 The Gryffindors around Harry are all congratulating him and Harry smiles at Hagrid, who smiles back.JaVa is still trying to figure out why Voldemort called her Riddle-lestrang.
