Trouble Fox

Finally starting to get better

Chapter 5

When they arrived at Hogwarts she jumped into the boats and made her way to the school. She jumped out of the boat she was in with another girl named Hermione and they walked up the steps to Hogwarts."Now you will be placed in a house , Slytherin, Gryffindor, Ravenclaw, or Hufflepuff, and they will be like your family. You will win and lose house points. Now is the time that you will be sorted." Professor McGonagall explained. As Brittany walked into the Great Hall with Harry and Ron, she gasped. It was huge, full of students, and colors. Green and Silver for Slytherin, Red and Gold for Gryffindor, blue and BRONZE(I previously had white, but I SWEAR I READ THE BOOKS PLEASE DON'T KILL ME) for Ravenclaw, and yellow and black for Hufflepuff.

Suddenly everyone was quiet. There was a hat at the front of the Great Hall, and Professor McGonagall was calling out names. Abbot,Hanna went to Hufflepuff, and Malfoy, Draco went to Slytherin. At last her name was called. "Potter, Brittany" Whispers bounced around the Great Hall. Brittany walked up and sat down. Professor McGonagall placed the hat on her head and it started to speak."Ah.... you have a keen mind, but Ravenclaw will do nothing for you. Hufflepuff would only leave you not fitting in. Shy...quiet... but there's something under that. Something cunning, but not dark. Something people nowadays would have trouble understanding isn't dark or evil... Slytherin could help you, but I sense something more. A spark, waiting to be blown on to create a fire.... and I know which house is just what that spark needs. Racenclaw would turn it into knowledge, and that is not the path you wish, is it... Hufflepuff would leave it as it is, never setting off a bigger reaction.... Slytherin would either smother it or create something so big it could not be put out... but Gryffindor would feed the fire, yet keep it controlled enough along the correct path. I think you know by now where I'm sending you, don't you.... GRYFFINDOR!!!" The hat yelled. Everyone in Gryffindor cheered and clapped. Next was Harry's turn. It took a while, but Harry was finally in Gryffindor. He sat next to Brittany and George. Ron Weasley, the boy from the train, was placed into Gryfindor. He sat next to Harry and Hermione. Then Professor Dumbledore got up and said a few words. Brittany couldn't make them out but they sounded mostly random. Just then the golden plates filled with food. Brittany had never seen that much food in her life. She ate and ate. Then there was dessert. Brittany felt like she was about to explode. But she followed Percy Weasley up to the common room and fell fast asleep in be girls dormitory.
