07 - newbies and a tournament

Hermione's PoV
The Sorting Ceremony started:
"Branstone, Eleanor!
Hufflepuff!"
People at The Hufflepuff table cheered
"McAdams, Kaira!"
A beautiful girl with blonde hair went up and sat on the stool.
"Gryffindor!"
We all cheered and started introducing ourselves.
"Cauldwen, Owen!"
"Hufflepuff!"
"Wood, Caitlyn!"
"Ravenclaw!"
"Pritchard, Graham!"
"Slytherin!"
"Quirke, Orla!"
"Ravenclaw!"
When the Ceremony ended everyone went silent, you can hear a cheese slice drop (where did I get that😂) Professor Dumbledore had got to his feet. He was smiling around at the students.
"I only have only two words to say to you" he told us, his deep voice echoing around the hall.
"Tuck in".
"Hear, Hear!" Harry and Ron said loudly, as the empty dished filled magically before their eyes.
Nearly Headless Nick watched mournfully ad Harry, Ron and I loaded our plates.

When we all finished eating Professor Dumbledore stood.

"So!" Said Dumbledore, smiling around us.

"Mr. Filtch, the caretaker has asked me to tell you that the list of objects forbidden inside the castle has this year been extended to include Screaming Yo-yos, Fanged Frisbees and Ever-Bashing Boomerangs. The full list comprises some 4 hundred and 37 items, I believe, and can be viewed in Mr. Filch's office, if anybody would like to check it".
The corners of Dumbledore's mouth twitched.

He continued,
"As ever, I would like to remind you all that the forest in the grounds is out-of-bounds to students, as is the village of Hogsmeade to all below third year. It is also my painful duty to inform you that the inter-house Quidditch Cup will not take place this year"

"What!" Harry gasped looking at Fred and George, his fellow teammates.

Dumbledore continued, "This is due to an event that will starting this October, and continuing through the school year." He said.

And then suddenly a man came rushing, he's wet, dirty sorry for that and exhausted.
He came to Dumbledore and whispered whinch we cannot hear.

"So ,may I present our new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher, Professor Alastor Moody."
I started to clap Moody's my idol, half of the death eaters are in azkaban because of him.

Harry's POV

Professor Moody started to drink something but its bot pumpkin juice.

-30 minutes later-
After the feast we headed vack to commonrooms. Dumbledore explained the Tri-Wizard tournament, three schools with representative from each school will compete into 3 dangerous tasks but only 17 and above students are the only one allowed to compete. Phew, thank merlin for that.
