Chapter 20 - 20.sorting (2/2)
You're in safe hands (though I have none)
For I'm a Thinking Cap!”
The whole hall burst into applause as the hat finished its song. It bowed to each of the four tables and then became quite still again.Professor McGonagall now stepped forward holding a long roll of parchment.
”When I call your name, you will put on the hat and sit on the stool to be sorted,” she said. ”Abbott, Hannah!”
A pink-faced girl with blonde pigtails stumbled out of line, put on the hat, which fell right down over her eyes, and sat down. A moments pause --
”Hufflepuff!”
The table on the right cheered and clapped as Hannah went to sit down at the Hufflepuff table. Harry saw the ghost of the Fat Friar waving merrily at her.
”Bones, Susan!”
”HUFFLEPUFF!” shouted the hat again, and Susan scuttled off to sit next to Hannah.
”Boot, Terry!”
”RAVENCLAW!
The table second from the left clapped this time; several Ravenclaws stood up to shake hands with Terry as he joined them.
Bulstrode, Millicent” then became a Slytherin.
”Diggory Ryan” Harry and Luna watched as Ryan whipped out his wand and strolled forward with a smirk that was rather unnerving for some reason. everyone was watching him wondering why he had his want out when he quickly cast a reparo and a scourgify to clean and fix the dirty hat everyone looked stunned but he was wondering how Noone got lice i mean these are kids in a magical school how can you not be smart enough to clean and fix it he noticed Dumbledore subtly facepalm out of the corner of his eye. Wizard often lose most of their commons sense
hat: ”why thank you I wonder why no one else ever did that”
Ryan: ”your welcome your hatliness *bows dramatically* and perhaps lack of Common sense?”
hat: ” most likely”
Ryan gently placed the hat on his head and felt something dive into his mind he had barriers over his systems and Cassie so he can't find out about that but not about his previous life he wanted the hats help with some things.
Hat: WHAT THE FU....
McGonagall quickly cast a silencing spell on him a gave the hat a stern look while Dumbledore chuckled.
inside his mind Ryan can see flashes of memories and let the hat do his thing when the hat was done he heard a sigh in his mind 'man that's pretty messed up'
Ryan nodded solemnly
'so you want me to help you prank this generation?'
Ryan:'of course in exchange I'll let you in on some fun things later and even buy you new lining you can have fawkes take you to me to visit anytime you want'
hat: 'that's a really good deal so what do you need from me?'
Ryan and the hat started to plot and people seemed to be getting impatient until the hat shouted ”GRYFFINDOR!”
the gold and red table burst into applause with Fred and George leading the group I went and took and a seat at the end of the table I was the first Gryffindor. the twins whispered to me wondering what I talked to the hat about I told them to be patient and wait.
”Finch-Fletchley, Justin!”
”HUFFLEPUFF!”
”Granger, Hermione!”
Hermione almost ran to the stool and jammed the hat eagerly on her head.
”GRYFFINDOR!” shouted the hat.
”Greengrass, Daphne!”
GRYFFINDOR!” the hat yelled again
Daphne looked shocked silly all her family was Slytherin then looked at me for a moment I merely winked and went back to watching the show.
”Goyle, Gregory!”
as soon as the hat was on his head
”Ravenclaw!” Goyle looked around stupidly wondering if he heard right( for those wondering crabbe still got put in slytherin he was before ryan in the callings)professor McGonagall had to usher him off to the table with him looking more shocked than anyone.
”Lovegood, Luna” ”Gryffindor!” the hat shouted and she happily skipped over to give Ryan a hug among the wolf whistles from the twins. When Neville Longbottom, was called, he fell over on his way to the stool. The hat took a long time to decide with Neville. When it finally shouted, ”GRYFFINDOR,” Neville ran off still wearing it, and had to jog back amid gales of laughter Malfoy swaggered forward when his name was called and got his wish at once: the hat had barely touched his head when it screamed, ”HUFFLEPUFF!”
the whole hall was silent Fred and George looked like Christmas had come early malfoy Sr was always going at it with their dad and they knew he was pretty much guaranteed Slytherin the both looked towards Ryan who smirked and then returned to his calm face malfoy however was on the verge of fainting he was changing colors at a rapid pace and it was beginning to look like some form of accidental magic between pants of air I could barely make out. resort...my father....and some other unintelligible garbles.
the he screamed at the top of his lungs with and high pitched voice crack.
”impossible!!!” he finally ran of breathe and seemed to pass out Snape quickly levitated him to the infirmary under the murmurs of ”he really must be his love child” and ”wait til his father hears of this” Snape billowed out more quickly in pure rage.
Ryan swore he broke at least 2 ribs trying not to laugh but in the silence of the great hall it happened.
The Mad Cackle.
”Muhahahaha” everyone turned to look at him like he was insane that was the perfect Slytherin mad cackle he was quickly joined by the hat and the Weasley twins it was chaos.
Dumbledore fired out two loud cannonblasts from his wand. ”Quiet! please continue the sorting”
There weren't many people left now. ”Moon”.., ”Parkinson”..., then a pair of twin girls, ”Patil” and ”Patil”..., then ”Perks, Sally-Anne”..., and then, at last --”Potter, Harry!”
As Harry stepped forward, whispers suddenly broke out like little hissing fires all over the hall.
”Potter, did she say?”
”The Harry Potter?”
The last thing Harry saw before the hat dropped over his eyes was the hall full of people craning to get a good look at him. Next second he was looking at the black inside of the hat. Hmm,” said a small voice in his ear. ”Difficult. Very difficult. Plenty of courage, I see. Not a bad mind either. There's talent, A my goodness, yes -- and a nice thirst to prove yourself, now that's interesting... So where shall I put you?”
Harry gripped the edges of the stool and thought, Not Slytherin, not Slytherin.
”Not Slytherin, eh?” said the small voice. ”Are you sure? You could be great, you know, it's all here in your head, and Slytherin will help you on the way to greatness, no doubt about that -- no? Well, if you're sure -- better be GRYFFINDOR!”Harry heard the hat shout the last word to the whole hall. He took off the hat and walked shakily toward the Gryffindor table. Ryan clapped him on the back and smiled at him ”see it wasn't so bad was it” Harry could only shake his head
And now there were only three people left to be sorted. ”Tonks, Nymphadora” a clumsy hair changing girl stumbled her way over to the chair, joined then at the Gryffindor table. ”Turpin,Lisa ,” became a Ravenclaw and then it was Ron's turn. He was pale green by now. Ryan sighed it was a sacrifice he had to endure ”GRYFFINDOR”
