Seeing and hiding- sequel to 'Daughter of the Werwolf,'

6- Gryfinndor!

"Hagrid!" I said as I stepped off the train and onto the platform.

"Ello Avery, nice ta see yeh," he said patting my back. "Shame your father ain't ere this year, good teacher he was," He said nodding his head, I nodded in agreement. "You best be off to the carriages," Hagrid said before I walked away. I got on a carriage where Harry, Ron and Hermione were already seated.

"Does anyone know who's coming this year?" Hermione asked. Ron, Harry and I shook our heads.

"Um, Ave, where's your dad?" Ron asked me.

"Dad isn't coming back....... To Hogwarts. He resigned because Snape nearly exposed us both," I said angrily.

"That's a shame. Well, does anyone who the new Dark arts teacher is?" Harry asked, fixing up his glasses.

"I have no idea," I chimed in. We talked for the rest of the way to Hogwarts main entrance and we got out of the carriages. I walked into the great hall beside my friends and we all sat at the Gryfinndor table. The hall was filled with murmuring until Dumbledore spoke.

"Good evening everyone and welcome back to another year at Hogwarts. Professor McGonngall, you may go get the first years," he told McGonngall and she walked out the great hall, then came back I'm a second later with a bunch of younger students. They all lined up at the front as they waited for the hat to finish its song, until one of them was called up.

"Withersbag, Selena," McGonnagal called into the crowd of students. The girl sat upon the stool and waited till the hat had decided.

"You belong in............RAVENCLAW!" The hat shouted. Selena hurried down the stairs, to join her new schoolmates.

"Crevey, Dennis,"

"GRYFINNDOR!" The hat shouted and we all jumped up with applause. I looked over at Fred and George who were now dancing on their seat.

"Erinhood, Bellator,"

"SLYTHERIN!"

After all the students were sorted into their houses, Dumbledore decided to start talking about the rules this year.

"There's a chair empty," harry whispered as he pointed out. We all looked at the teachers table and realised that Harry was right.

"What teacher is it?" Ron asked us. We all shrugged our shoulders and carried on with our business.

"I have an announcement to make," we heard Dumbledore's voice surround the hall. "this year we are hosting the first tri-wizard tournament in years," I heard a few gasps from the tables but he carried on. "This year, there will be no qudditch,"

"BOOOOOOO!!!!!" Fred and George shouted. Everyone laughed except the Slythreins. Dumbledore laughed and went back to what he was going on about.

"This year, we will be hosting the competing schools Beauxbatons and Drumstrings. Now, I would like to welcome you, the ladies of Beauxbatons," he bellowed and the doors suddenly opened, to reveal a bunch of people I know. I watched as the girls walked in I saw my best friend (apart from the awesome Four) Terri-lee. I also saw Livinia Aishling. I growled as she walked past. She exposed my true self to every single teacher at Beauxbatons. The teachers weren't alright with it one bit. The decided that I should be put in the 'independent Witchery' class, where I was the only one in it. Luckily, Terri was still friends with me. As they finished their entrance, they walked to the left side of the hall and sat down on the chairs provided.

"Welcome, the Men of Drunstings academny," Dumbledore greeted the boys. One boy started doing amazing tricks and I gasped at the sight, not because of the tricks, because it was Ezra. I also saw Lucifer with his friends and saw Viktor Krum who was walking beside the professor I met at the cup.
