My family thought, that for my safety, I would be better off learning the rest of my magic at Hogwarts. Having already figured things out with Albus Dumbledore I would just have to go through the floo network, get sorting into one of the houses and than join in with a feast.

So that brings me to were I am now, saying goodbye to my parents.

"We love you and you know we're only doing this to secure our future. We can't just think about ourselves in these situations."

"I know mother. My life is never going to be my own. I fine with it, I accepted my role long ago." I knew mother cared about me and hated the burdened which was placed on me but sometimes she worries too much.

"We just worry darling. You're our only child, the only one who can carry on our name and our legacy." Father was just as bad as mother.

"I'll be safe. There's no need to worry but if I don't leave now everything gets pushed back. We can't just use my name to excuse everything there."

"Well, make sure they look after you"

"And be safe." Mother finished for father.

"I will be." I stood in the fireplace and grabbed some floo powder.

"We love you." Mum said, in tears.

"Stop crying, this isn't the last time we'll see each other." Instead of her answering me back he just gave me a sad look, trying to hold back her sobs.

"Right?" I asked, slightly worried now.

I looked over towards my father to see if he could answer me but he still had the same look in his eyes.

"What aren't you telling me?" I asked, worried now.

"You need to go now, we love you." Father said.

"But-" Before I could say anything else I was cut off by a long bang.

"Mary you have to leave now!" Father bellowed.

"I love you. " I cried out. "Hogwarts." I threw the powder down at my feet and soon I was standing in Albus Dumbledore's fireplace.

"Ah, Pri-"

"Just Mary please." I said, cutting him off before he said anymore.

"Just as you like Mary. Now if you could please take a seat and you will be sorted." He gestured to the wooden stool that was standing next to him.

I walked over towards it and slowly sat down. Soon I felt something placed onto my head.

"Ah, aren't you quite a rarity." I voice spoke.

"Pardon?"

"Oh you will be quite the leader. Only one house will lead you to your much needed victory but so much bravery kindness, not Gryffindor nor Ravenclaw. So very loyal, so determined. But where to to put you? Slytherin or Hufflepuff?

....................................................................................................


So I'm going to end it there. I really wanted this longer but couldn't actually decide which house I wanted her in? As she becomes quite a Slytherin in the future I have planned for her but she holds so many hufflepuff qualities. I thought I'd leave it u to you to comment and i might to a pottermore quiz so I can get her sorted into the correct house. Also please look out for hints which I'll be leaving throughout the series and guess the little twist I've put in about Mary.
