Chapter 10: Return to Hogwarts.
Harry looked out the window wistfully. He could hardly believe that just one year earlier, he was in the train, en route to Hogwarts, looking forward during his first, to discover in what house it would be distributed, to prove to his parents that he could also be worthy of attention. The situation has really changed in a year, but he did not regret it. Despite his disastrous home life, he had two great best friends, great friends and a loving uncle. Its location could have been worse. And the Sorting Hat had been right in the end, his place was in Slytherin, no doubt about it. And so what if it did not please his parents.
He was in a compartment at the bottom of the train in the company of Elizabeth, Fred, Daphne and Tracey, and two future first years who had not found other compartment free. Neville had left him say hello to Hermione, with whom he was very friendly. However, the girl was not feeling very comfortable with the Slytherins, and this prevented him from entering the small group.
While talking with Blaise animation and told everyone on holiday in France for the umpteenth time, Harry watched the two students who were unknown to the bottom of the compartment. The girl had long dark brown hair and hazel eyes, she was quite small, especially compared to his friend, who was rather large for a child of eleven. The two witches were similar, both had the same brown hair and hazel eyes, and Harry wondered if they were twins, or at least the same family. They seemed very close, talking constantly in a low voice and with animation. Curiously, neither had laid a glance in his direction or had not pointed to, as was normally the case, because many people took him for his brother. After all, back they were identical. Maybe they are Muggles, Harry thought.
The girl turned her head, perhaps feeling the weight of Harry's eyes on her and gave her a small smile. Harry, deeply annoyed by the conversation, or rather the monologue Blaise, decided to change seats and move to knowledge of both future students. He whispered something into the ear of Elizabeth, who nodded her head vaguely.
- Hi, I'm Harry Potter, came there with a little smile on their hand.
- Hello, my name is Jenny Derwent, said the little girl, shaking hands with a big smile. And my friend is Lucas Entwhistle said she, pointing. Hesitant, the boy shook hands with Harry.
- My cousin told me much about you, said the so-called Jenny. His name is Nathaniel Derwent is a fifth-year Slytherin.
Harry thought on hearing this name which undoubtedly said something. Seeing her pensively, Jenny said.
- It is the team's drummer, and soon Harry nodded as a sign of acquiescence. He remembered indeed a tall lanky blond hair pulling brown, with sparkling blue eyes and who collected the conquests. He had already spoken once or twice.
- So nervous about returning to Hogwarts? Harry asked, addressing the two children. The boy was really timid, unlike Jenny.
- Oh yes I'm waiting this for years, Jenny said with animation. But against Lucas by a Muggle parents, while he did not know he was a wizard before receiving the letter of Poudard and the visit of Professor McGonagall, this was one of those shock for him!
Lucas sketched a little shy smile and immediately understood what Harry was feeling the young wizard. This should not be easy to discover the existence of a new world, new powers. But it made Harry even more curious. He could have sworn that the two sorcerers had known a long time they looked so accomplices. He then ventured to ask them a question.
- How did you meet? he asked curiously. Harry could not help it, that he was always very difficult to be sociable, and usually it did not pose such questions to people he just met. But a year in snakes was definitely affected his personality, and Harry had much confidence in him, and now he dared more, even if the old instincts still tortured.
- In fact, we were in elementary school together, said Lucas, to the surprise of Harry. I did not know Jenny was a witch until I receive my letter and tell him, explained it by sending a small smile to her friend.
- And here I was too happy to learn that Lucas was also a sorcerer, I hate having to leave, Jenny exclaimed with a smile. Mom enrolled me in school among Muggles because my father was one and she wanted me to know Muggle life, she added by way of explanation. It was indeed rare that children do not attend school witch muggle.
Harry then continued to discuss with the two new students, and gradually relaxed and Lucas took part in the conversation, even if he did not yet know a lot of things in the wizarding world despite intensive courses that Jenny had apparently forwarded .
- So you're in Slytherin? he finally asked Harry, looking straight in the eye.
- But I spoke to Harry this summer, said Jenny instead of Slytherin. He is the brother of Ryan Potter, who defeated Voldemort when he was a baby, but according to my cousin is a real moron! she said in a voice a little stronger, and this attracted the attention of all the other Slytherins and Elizabeth, who then watched the scene with eyes interested, but Jenny noticed nothing and continued his little speech.
- Nath told me that Harry had killed a troll in the first year and was much stronger than his brother, who is among the last of the class and who thinks he is the king of Hogwarts with its small courtyard Gryffindor , Nath do not like the Gryffindors, she added, while a softer voice, turning to Harry, and she blushed when he saw that all eyes were on her. Harry felt that Jenny was an absolutely disarming sincerity and it reminded him ...
- It is quite the little, 'said Elizabeth Black with an ironic smile. Jenny's cheeks took on a more red tint, and everybody in the compartment burst out laughing. Elizabeth got up and walked toward them.
- My name is Elizabeth Black, she said, reaching out to Jenny, who seemed impressed.
The presentations then rang out in the compartment, and without even realizing it, the first two students found themselves integrated into the group of Harry.
All while playing a game of cards explosive, while Blaise and Elisabeth told Jenny Lucas and stories about Hogwarts, Neville made his reappearance in the compartment, looking moody and sullen.
- What happens Neville? Tracey asked, the only one who looked up the part, hearing the door open.
Neville looked hesitant to Harry, who frowned before explained.
- While I was in the compartment with Hermione and Padma Patil, Ryan came to make a surprise appearance with his baboon Weasley, he began in a gloomy voice. One thing led to another and we started to fight until a Gryffindor prefect intervened and put a hold me!
- And Potter had nothing? Daphne asked in disbelief while all the others listened carefully.
- No, because it's me who started angrily answered the Gryffindor. Despite the testimony of Hermione and Padma, the prefect has wanted to believe that Ryan and result, I have a detention with McGonagall, Neville ended by sitting down next to Blaise.
- Bad luck old, said the latter a sympathetic tone. Anyway it should not surprise you from a Gryffindor prefect, after all, they're all the scarred to boot!
- Not all, said Elizabeth in a tone remote. Last year I saw Percy Weasley remove items at Ryan because he was caught casting a spell Crabbe or Goyle I to know which. He takes his role very seriously and I do not think he likes Ryan.
- The brother of the weasel! Blaise exclaimed in disbelief. But they are all idiots in that family, even the twins are just morons, you remember last year when they turned many of us in the canaries! The many of us also concerned Blaise, who kept a very bad memory, however, no one ventured to approach this subject.
- Yes but they are jokes for everyone, Elizabeth argued, not only to Slytherin!
Harry watched the scene unfolding before him with a growing boredom, which came not from his friends, but because they were discussing Gryffindor, and it irritated him. Unless he saw or heard about do, the better he was doing. However, he noticed that Jenny and Lucas watched the exchange with a certain fascination and he smiled at the sight. Even if he did not know for a long time, he liked them.
After five minutes, noticing that Harry did not take part in the discussion and that Neville was fed up we talk about what had happened, and Elisabeth Slytherin quickly changed the subject and said explosive game of cards. Hours and took place quietly. The second year and Jenny Lucas explained to what was the distribution and somewhat subsided and fears.
Then they do not even realize it, the night was falling and the Hogwarts Express was entering the station to pre-au-lard.
- We will have to separate, Harry explained the first two years, while all off the train. You'll have to cross the lake by boat with Hagrid, the gamekeeper to be distributed, and we we went there in a carriage. Do not worry everything will be fine, he added with a smile of encouragement. It was obvious in fact that Lucas and Jenny were rather anxious. They smiled at him, and after a small gesture to their new friends, they headed towards Hagrid, who cried the first year to join him.
Harry and the others hurried to head for the carriages that were, surprised to find Harry, pulled by animals he had never seen before. They were huge winged horses with big white eyes shining, a dragon's head and a skeletal body.
- What is it that these animals? he asked with curiosity in Elizabeth Neville and two while they were heading for a carriage.
- I do not know, she replied in a troubled air. I've never seen in my life.
- These are thestrals, 'said Neville in a small voice. Only people who have seen people die can see them, it does not concern many students at Hogwarts. My parents told me about this summer, as I saw my grandmother die.
Harry and Elizabeth did pipèrent word and sat down in their carriage. Rethink Augusta Longbottom was not a happy memory. It was dead when they were about six years, so she kept her little son, shot crucios of Bellatrix Lestrange and her husband. Neville, who had escaped death thanks to the arrival of his parents and Dumbledore, had been traumatized for months after the incident, and it was also still have nightmares from time to time.
The trip took place in complete silence, each of the young wizards thinking back to the person they had seen die, and Harry once again thought of what had happened in June between him and Voldemort. Although two months had passed since he does still not recovering because he had killed a man, and he often have nightmares at night.
Moreover, he wondered whether Dumbledore would come to claim the accounts or not. The fact that the director has still not contacted him bothered him deeply, because in his opinion it was not a good sign. The portraits were the necessarily up to date, and then, he had discovered the body of Professor Quirrell, or rather the debris was left. So why does he say anything? wondered for the umpteenth time Harry. He had spoken at length with her two best friends, and they too were as puzzled as Harry.
They arrived very quickly at Hogwarts, and the three friends had to separate to reach their respective homes.
Sitting at his desk, Harry was pleased to find Draco, who was talking with Theodore Nott. However, even if he too could not speak in public, but he trusted to catch up tonight at her birthday party to be held in the common room of Slytherin. However, he sent a wink to Slytherin.
The distribution began, and Harry watched with particular attention to his two new friends. Jenny and Lucas stood in front of the student group, near Emmett Black and a redhead who looked a lot like Ron Weasley. Pity, yet another, silently implored Harry. They were both very nervous, like any other future years. It was Jenny who was called in first.
Derwent Jenny, said in a voice loud and clear to Professor McGonagall.
Jenny went to the little hesitantly stool on which to lay the famous Sorting Hat. Harry remembered so fondly his own division. Is it was already a year?
- Slytherin! cried the Sorting Hat then after thirty seconds, and Harry applauded vigorously the new recruit of green and silver. Jenny went to the Slytherin table with a hesitant smile. She had told Harry in the train that his family was in Slytherin, but his mother would prefer it to be distributed on the other. Harry, however, was happy.
He showed him a small wave the seat next to him and she came to sit.
- I hope that Lucas will be distributed also in Slytherin, she said a little wistfully, and Harry nodded. A table of Ravenclaw, he saw his best friend to pout at the Gryffindor table. His little brother had in fact been distributed among the lions, and Harry knew that Elizabeth would have preferred it goes any another house, trying to escape the negative influence of Ryan Potter. He gave her a small smile of reassurance, but she made a hand signal to show that she did not care really. What was wrong, Harry knew, but it was useless to talk about for now. Emmett and Elizabeth Black were perhaps not very close, but they were brothers and sisters, and younger they spent much time together before Emmett come close to Ryan. Harry knew that Elisabeth deeply regretted not to be as close to his brother, but he could not do anything about it. Sighing, he turned his attention to the distribution. And just turn it was Lucas.
Entwhistle Lucas, called Professor McGonagall, and the boy wizard came up to the Sorting Hat, which began more than a minute to spread the boy.
- Gryffindor! ends up screaming the Sorting Hat and Harry felt a twinge of disappointment. But that was nothing compared to the reaction of two best friends. Lucas looked sorry for Jenny who looked extremely disappointed, before heading to the table of red and gold.
- Do not worry, when Harry reassured her. Elizabeth, Neville and I are in three different houses, this does not prevent us to see us all the time, to have classes together, eat together and be in the evening. Just because you're in a different house than it will affect your friendship, it ends with a little smile of encouragement. Jenny nodded, but she lacked conviction, and Harry could see that the girl did not feel as comfortable in Slytherin.
The distribution continued, and Harry frankly bored. He began to talk with his friends until the feast earlier this year does not start last. He would die of hunger.
The meal takes place quickly, Harry and the other Slytherins continued to talk quietly, mostly Quidditch. Indeed Harry had decided this year to integrate the Slytherin Quidditch team, the position of catcher has become free, and by Draco there was no doubt that he would be taken. Blaise is also thought to try the selections this year because there were a lot of vacancies to be filled, and also hoped to convince Harry Draco, but he thought this would be very difficult, as any boy Draco age normally be loved Quidditch.
When the meal was finished, the Slytherins stood up, and Harry went to Elizabeth at the table Ravenclaws to give him the new password Slytherin dungeons which would be the small hop on her birthday. He had earlier told his invisibility cloak that she and Neville are not made to catch the first night. It would have been a shame to start the year received a first deduction, or a second in the case of Neville.
The password is runespoor, he whispered in his ear and Elizabeth nodded in sign of acquiescence. And tell Neville to invite Lucas, he added with a knowing look. It is not because he is in Gryffindor it is unrecoverable, he joked, and Elizabeth looked at him exasperated falsely before s "away.
Two hours later, Draco and Harry had arranged the living room and fired more or less kindly people who were not invited, that is to say, those who did not know Harry or who were in the bad sense of Slytherin term. When both Gryffindor and Elisabeth appeared with ten minutes late, because of Mrs. Norris, the party could finally begin.
While sitting on a couch in company with Elizabeth, that the evening was in full swing and the music sounded in the room (thanks to the expert care of Tracey), Harry looked around him. He saw Draco, Theodore and Tracey talk with entertainment and laughter, and a daughter of Blaise third year perform movements that seemed to dance but did more laughing than anything else, Neville and Daphne playing chess under the eyes of many upper-year Slytherins, Lucas, and his cousin Jenny talk quietly by the fire, clear, apparently, Jenny and Lucas were not as disappointed that a while ago and enjoyed the evening and it was fun to Harry, the distribution in homes should not be as important, as much impact on students, after all, the distribution was based only on the advice of an old hat over 1000 years, which saw every student one or more dominant qualities and sent in the same house. But that meant nothing in the end.
The scene unfolding before his eyes he was so happy he could hardly believe that all these people were there for him, were his friends. For the first time since the end of the first year and returning to Godric's Hollow, he felt clearly loved, he felt he had to rely on people who trusted him and liked him for what he really was, not because he was the brother of the man-who-had survived.
This year started really well, thought Harry, happy.
Harry looked out the window wistfully. He could hardly believe that just one year earlier, he was in the train, en route to Hogwarts, looking forward during his first, to discover in what house it would be distributed, to prove to his parents that he could also be worthy of attention.
