Our Overpowered Hearts

Of School and Friends

Rioma gazed up at the large castle when it appeared, in awe at the grand design. He wondered if that was how the castle of Hyrule may have looked. When the boats docked finally and the children scampered out led by Hagrid once more. Some eyed the water lapping at the edge warily, others leaned over to see if they could get a glimpse of the Zora once more.

Meeting them at a gate was a stern looking elderly woman who seemed to be almost scowling at their later than planned arrival, hurrying the frazzled children along into the castle and stopping at a corridor.

"Get yourselves fixed up, I'll come call you shortly."

As the professor disappeared through a set of doors, the children all quickly fixed their appearance or rounded on Rioma.

"Hey are you really Harry Potter?"

"Did you know those..uh...what did you call them...Zora?"

"What did they mean by your father?"

Rioma just told the kid who asked his name that yes, he was Harry Potter, but now his name was Rioma. He told the other that he knew about the Zora but didn't know them personally, yet.

He just ignored the last one, they'll find out.

He noticed some other kids eyed him warily, their noses raised as if to look down on him and sneered and gestured to his ears when he asked. Rioma was about to go off on them when the doors opened, and the kids were all led into a grand looking dining hall with ceilings so high Rioma wondered when they ended since he couldn't see past the enchantment of the starry skies.

His gaze rolled over the four large tables, decked in red, yellow, blue, and green respectively before going up to the table at the top of a raised platform, where he saw his father and brother at. He waved at them eagerly and grinned when they waved back, Twilight's more subdued than Wild's.

Then he tuned out everything else as he looked around more, ignoring the singing hat and when the names began being called. He only came back to reality when he heard his birth name being called.

"Potter, Harry!"

He growled, standing his ground as he looked at the Professor eyeing him expectantly.

"My name, if you bothered to do your research, was legally changed to Rioma. Yes, the full name is Rioma 'Harry Potter' Ordon, and yes it's a mouthful. I will NOT answer to Harry Potter, as that is not my first nor my last name any more. If you wish to sort me, use my correct name."

Twilight sat back down when it seemed Rioma wouldn't lose control, nodding in approval at his son's words as Professor Mcgonnagal sputtered almost angrily. A glance to Dumbledore had him nodding to her gently, urging her to use the boy's preferred name.

"...Ordon, Rioma"

Smirking, the child sauntered up to the steps with a light bounce in his walk, sat and shoved the hat on his head.

/ A strong boy indeed...willing to stand up for who you chose to be instead of who others want you to be. That takes courage.... Oh? You also had a change in your DNA...I still sense your birth parents there...but now two others as well have claimed you as their own. Where to put you...Slytherin would be good, smart and cunning as you are. Hmmm..... /

//Twilight's P.O.V//

Some of the professors weren't happy that Wild and I came at the same time as the students, but we couldn't really care less. I didn't care for how uptight Mcgonnagal or Dumbledore tried to control our movements. Hagrid was okay, so was Flitwick and the Herbology teacher. I was waiting with patient air, my arms crossed leaning back, looking out at all the students who in turn were watching me. After a bit more time passed, which I could tell Wild was getting antsy as he started to bounce in his seat, the weird talking hat shouted out 'Gryffindor!' with great vigor.
