“Fein, Kamryn!”
“Slytherin!”
“Greyrose, Elli!”
“Gryffindor!”
“Pichard, Ellery!”
“Hufflepuff!”
“Scott, Aurora!”
Excitedly, the first year bounded towards the stool, her curls bouncing behind her. This was it; this was what her father had spoke to her about her entire life, and it was finally here. The day she would be sorted into a house, and not just any house. The perfect house. The house she belonged in. She rubbed her hands together as the hat was put on top of her head.
“Scott, huh? Mother attended Beauxbaton, Father was a Slytherin here…” the hat thought aloud. “Your older sister, sitting at the Hufflepuff table, eh? Would you like to join her?”
“It doesn’t matter to me,” Aurora answered, wishing the hat would hurry up and pick a house; it couldn’t be that hard, could it? Just throw her in the house she belonged in—
“Oh, it’s not that simple little missy. There are so many factors that go into picking a house. This decision affects all of your experience here at Hogwarts, you know! Now, let’s go through the houses.
“Gryffindor, I can see. You’re definitely a brave one, aren’t ya? Chivalrous, that’s another story. I don’t know if you are…
“Hufflepuff, maybe? You’ve got a sense of loyalty, but I don’t think you’re very patient, are you? Even know, you’re urging me to hurry up and make my decision.
“Ravenclaw, then? I must admit, you seem like the creative type… You could work on your wit, a little, though, but maybe?
“How about Slytherin like your father? You’re certainly ambitious. A world famous seeker? That’s a tough thing to be… I think you could be very resourceful, don’t you? But again, you lack cunning, leadership abilities…”
“You’re wrong,” Aurora protested. “One day, I’m going to be Quidditch Captain, and I’m going to be the best leader there is!” she hissed at the hat.
“I see, and how do you plan to do that, exactly?”
“Practice, motivation, the sort. I’m going to take care of my team, so they play good.”
“Interesting. Most just stop at practice. I’m impressed, I have to say. Well, my decision is made up.”
Slytherin, just like Papa, Aurora thought with a toothy grin. But no sooner did she think it did the hat proclaim:
“RAVENCLAW!”
