Sorting hat

3rd person

     All the staff and students were in the Great Hall for this year's Sorting ceremony/start of year feast. As the new first years stood in front of the Great Hall, Minavera McGonagall placed an old looking hat with a cut in the center. Some of the first years looked confused until the hat came to life and started SINGING?!

     "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 tops 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.
Y ou might belong in Gryffindor,
Where dwell brave of 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 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 folk use any means
To achive their ends.
So put me on! Don't be afraid!
And you won't get in a flap!
You're safe in my hands(though I have none)
For I'm a Thinking Cap!!"
The students clapped for the song and then Minavera pulled out a roll of parchment and started calling out names...

Vitani's POV
     "Hanna Abbot!" The stern professor called out. The girl sat on the stool as the hat was placed stop her head. 30 seconds later the hat called out "HUFFLEPUFF!!" This went on for a while. I signed out until I heard Draco's name(they are alphabetical by first name)
The hat barely touched his head before it called out "SLYTHERIN" I clapped and cheered for my friend Blaise had also gotten into Slytherin. A few more kids later, Pansy got into Slytherin and Potter Jr and his cronies were in Gryffindor. It was my turn I was the last one to be sorted. "Vitani Forest!" Professor McGonagall called out. I gracefully walked up to the stool. I have been told by my grandma that when I walk with purpose I look like I'm floating. I sit down and the hat gets placed on my head
"My my what a mind. Poor thing I've seen your past it's not pretty. I'm glad you have a better new family." The hat said. Thanks I'm glad to! I replied. " I know where you will do best. Make new allies, and get justice on those who wronged you. Enjoy your time in.. SLYTHERIN! The hat called out the last word out loud. I could see that Draco was clapping and cheering the loudest. I smiled and walked over to him. "Hello Draco, long time no see." I smile and wink at him. "Ha ha so funny. Anyways I'm so glad you made it into Slytherin. I thought for sure if it wasn't Slytherin, you'd be a Ravenclaw." I smiled Draco knew I had a passion for reading and knowledge. The headmaster started his speech which was quite boring but also confusing. He told all the students that the the door in the 3rd floor corridor was off limits for those who don't wish to die a most painful death. Why the heck would be tell that to a bunch of kids. Especially since alot of kids would be curious or want to rebel. I'm shaken out of my thoughts by the sound of multiple pops. I look around the table to see that the food has arrived. I smile, I was really hungry. I looked around and frowned. A lot of this food was different from what I've been eating for the past 5 years. By that I mean there was very little options for meat, and the ones there were..cooked. I haven't had a cooked meal in a long time. "You gonna eat something kid?" I look up to see a older boy, I look to see he has a badge that says prefect on it. I nod and reach for an apple. It's the only thing that I would chance right now. I finished my apple and took a sip of my water..which was in a cup and clearly not from the stream. I did not like this. Would all meals be like this. Everything cooked or unnatural? "You ok kid? You look a bit pale." The same boy from earlier asks. I look up to see that Draco, Pansy, Blaise and some other students looking at me concerned. "I'm fine. Just not used to this kind of food.." I didn't really know how to tell them. "What to you mean?" Blaise asked. "Well I normally eat meats and-" Pansy cut me off before I could speak. "Ok well look there is some good cooked pork chops, eat those." She said. I glare at her for interrupting me. "If you let me finish then you would know why! I would eat those but I haven't had cooked meat in like 5 years." More Slytherins started to stare. Some with confusion, some with worry, and sadly some with pity. I don't know why though? As if sensing my uncomfortableness, Draco grabbed some pork chop and cut it up. "Here, just try it. If you don't like it, you don't have to eat it." He says. I nod and grab my fork. I feel eyes on me, I grab some pork chop with my fork and take a bite. IT WAS AMAZING!! "This is amazing! I love it." I say. The students suddenly let out a sigh of relief. Draco smiles and gestures for me to continue. I nod and dinner goes peacefully the rest of the way through.

A/N hello everyone how did you like this chapter. Again I would like to say thanks to you guys. I would also like it if you would go to my first author note page which is the "chapter" above this one. Please vote so I can plan out the chapter that it will be in. I need it so I can make it happen cuz I want you all to be happy. But sadly I can't wait forever, so if it doesn't happen soon I will have to make the decision myself.
