Harry Potter, The Baudelaires, and The Fifth House

Chapter 7

As they turned up the hill to Hogwarts, the Baudelaires were completely amazed at how big Hogwarts really was! It was made out of brown brick with lots of towers, almost like a castle. "WOAH", they said as they entered through the door.

"I didn't know what I was missing before!", Violet said until Clive and Gem ran up to them.

"You are back! Finally!", Clive said.

"How was your shopping trip? We cleaned up a tower for you to sleep in tonight because I don't think we're ready to introduce you to the other wizard kids this evening. You can unpack, then come down for dinner. You can finish cleaning when the students are having their last few classes of the day. Then Sunny will take her things and go to Hagrid's hut because she won't be taking many classes and can't stay in the room unsupervised.", Gem said, taking a breath after saying so many words.

"Ok, can you lead the way?", Klaus asked as they followed closely behind Clive and Gem, with Hagrid and them carrying their items carefully. They turned up one tower and saw a brown and purple banner with ripped or faded out letters. Clive, Gem, and Hagrid said goodbye and to be downstairs in fifteen minutes. As they unpacked, Violet let Beauty out of her cage, wearing gloves and holding her in her hand. When she ignited brightly, they saw in better detail how dirty the room was. The first room had some old couches, a large table, and a big fireplace in the center. The second floor had the bedrooms, split in two for boys and girls. There was a small bathroom in each. They decided to both sleep in the girls room, and keep their stuff in the boys, being there wasn't very much storage space until they cleared the closets.

They unpacked until in almost five minutes, it was time to head downstairs for dinner.

Down the hall, right before the exit to the large hall that lead to the other tower and classrooms, and down at the end the dining hall and entrance, Clive and Gem were waiting for the Baudelaires.

"Have you unpacked your carts?", Gem asked.

"Mostly. Everything but most of the books.", Violet said.

"Heavy Coats.", Sunny babbled, translated into," I helped carrying the coats, for being clothes they are quite hefty!"

"Come on Baudelaires! Gem! Dinner is about to start!", Clive said as everyone opened the doors to the hall and began heading to the dining hall.

"There you are, Baudelaires!", Hagrid said, walking over to them. "Follow me to Dumbledoor."

"Before everyone eats their dinner, I'd like to introduce our new students, the Baudelaires.", Dumbledoor announced after gaining their attention.

"You mean the Ravenclaw with the nerd glasses and the big baby with big horse teeth!", A random kid yelled from in the Slytherin rows as a bunch of other kids gave him a high-five.

"Settle down! Ye' twerps!", Hagrid yelled as he got a cold stare from Mc Gonagall And Dumbledoor.

Dumbledoor took a deep breath as he held the Baudelaires' hands. "You may not see them very often, and they will be attending only certain classes, either in the Ravenclaw or Gryffindor houses. Their points will be counted on a separate account, and some of their classes may be held in private. Please realize they are still getting used to this... school as they were... um...", Dumbledoor said, as Klaus told everyone in the room.

"We are orphans and were told to come here because we were wizards. Our house burned down almost two years ago as we lost everything."

"Our money was donated, because we only had some clothes.", Violet finished. "Trust us, please. I'm sorry we have to be alone for now. To learn what we missed when we were in the orphanage."
