{On Hiatus} Oblivion: a Harry X Voldemort|Tom

The Sorting and the Dorms...

Narrator's POV

The group of five got off the train at Hogsmeade and followed the group of other students into the small wooden boats and into the school as the sun set.

The first years were pulled away by Hagrid and they were introduced to Professor McGonagall, who explained the houses to them with an obviously clear favoring towards Gryffindor.

They were lead into the Great Hall and waited to be sorted.

Suddenly, the Sorting Hat began to sing, "Oh you may not think I'm pretty, but don't judge on what you see, I'll eat myself if you can find a smarter hat than me. You can keep your bowlers black, your top hats sleek and tall, for I'm the Hogwarts Sorting Hat and I can cap them all. There's nothing hidden in your head the Sorting Hat can't see, so try me on and I will tell you where you ought to be. You might belong in Gryffindor, where dwell the brave at heart, their daring, nerve, and chivalry set Gryffindors apart; you might belong in Hufflepuff, where they are just and loyal, those patient Hufflepuffs are true and unafraid of toil; or yet in wise old Ravenclaw, if you've a ready mind, where those of wit and learning, will always find their kind; or perhaps in Slytherin you'll make your real friends, those cunning folks use any means to achieve their ends. So put me on! Don't be afraid! And don't get in a flap! You're in safe hands —though I have none— for I'm a Thinking Cap!"

It became very clear to how much Gryffindor was favored.
