Chapter 6 - Sorting ceremony

Wow. I am a dwarf compared to size of the hallways. This hallway itself must be wider than the area of my orphanage, this castle is huge! And the magic everywhere! I could sit down on any corner of this castle and learn so much about magic, truly a haven for learning magic and all its variations. And this is just the freaking introduction to the world of magic, man there is so much to explore. I can probably travel the world with magic. Wait, maybe even travel the universe. Wow, outer space is so much more approachable with magic now. I was giddy with excitement. And I got a smack in the head. "Look where you are going idiot!" said the cutest girl ever.

Rubbing my head to fix my hair, I looked at her and chuckled as I saw all the annoyance and anger melt away in the face of the legendary cuteness of this little girl. I really feel like she is a little girl, maybe because I am mentally 4 years older. Meh... Anyway even if I don't look with my eyes where I am going I can still sense the stairs, it isn't a problem for me to run and even sprint with all my senses robbed. But I can't say that to her. It was to my suprise that what I am able to do isn't normal. I mean I did not watch any movies or read any books of harry potter but I though this stuff I got fairly easily, is it the way of my thinking? But I am not so special am I? Meh, probably not, I mean somebody must of thought about this stuff right? Whatever let's just admire this moment now.

I walked up the wide staircase along with many first years with reasonable space for mobility, I mean I guess the wizarding world does not have a large population so it is understandable that the number of students isn't even comparable to normal schools even though this is the only wizarding school in britain, explains why the wizarding world is so unnoticeable even without the use of really strong magic to create a whole different undetectable continent or something.

Soon professor McGonagall stopped and so did we.

"Welcome to HOGWARTS. We will begin with the start of session feast shortly. You will first be sorted into a house through a sorting ceremony and will join your house mates for your first feast in the great hall of Hogwarts. I hope you understand that your stay throughout at Hogwarts till graduation will be with your housemates, they will be like your family during your stay here. They will be your companions in all aspects of your overall development as a person and a wizard."

"Now follow me."

She led us towards the huge door. What the frick?!?!? That door is probable as large as 7 storey building. My god this castle is huge, how can they even move that door. She pushed the door and the whole door's magic circuits lit up for ease of opening. Right... Obviously it was magic, the circuits were so obvious, I got nearly used to seeing them, I mean they everywhere. No seriously EVERY SINGLE MOLECULE IN THIS WHOLE CASTLE HAS SOME OR THE OTHER KIND OF MAGIC INFLUENCING THEM. INSANE.

Well I hope all the 7 years will be as fun as this, every moment is made magical with discovery.

The huge doors opened upl revealing a huge hall, as usual, imagine the hall, if a corridor was as big as his orphanage, it is like comparing earth with jupiter, seriously no kidding.

The whole hall was adorned with decorations that did not fill even a percent of the huge monstrously large walls which were surprisingly, no I guess not seeing all the circuits on them, spotlessly clean. 4 large tables evenly spaced made the space not so empty as the tables itself were filled with students wearing their respective house colour. The four flags on top of their tables flaunted their house name and logo with pride, showing each of their house qualities in their logos.

Gryffindor: bravery, nerve chivalry and daring (usually recklessness as these ppl are kids)

Hufflepuff: hard work, dedication, patience and loyalty(easily tricked sometimes)

Ravenclaw: intelligence, curiosity, creativity and wit(by far my favorite and suitable i think)

Slytherin: cunning, resourcefulness, ambition and leadership(way to hostile of sn environment)

"Hey harry, I heard we are supposed to fight a troll to get sorted, my brothers told. Do think we have to do that, I am so nervous."

"What do you think we have to do Kaelan?" asked the little browny girl who was followed by the looks of harry and ron.

"Well is suppose will find out soon, but ithink it probably has something to do with that temporary stool and the dirty looking hat, I mean it is pretty temporary and is probably only for this event. That is only my guess though"

"Oh no! I should have revised s bit more before coming here, will memorising all the books be enough?" said the panicking little witch who was followed by the the suprised looks from all the students who heard her including me.

(A/N: The mc does not know nearly any thing about the world except some names like the famous trio and the voldemort and sirius black cause he watched the 3rd film, but very long ago)

Professor climbed the stairs and stopped beside the hat, pulled out a large roll of parchment and spoke "I will be calling your names out in order, once your name is called, you will step up and sit down on this stool to be sorted into your respective houses" she said curtly.

Well this is going to take a long time. Might as well take the time practicing shapes of my zone.

"Hannah Abbot!" ...........

There are very few professors, but I guess this is enough for such a small number of students. Is that pale old man with longest and whitest hair and the funniest outfit be the legendary warlock Dumbledore?!? Wow it really is as they say, crazy people do truly live the longest, which in turn makes them the wisest, only due to the age, any genius who lives that long would have explored the outer space atleast s bit by now. Hmm? He is looking at me? My zone is covering him. Wait OH MY GOD, his spirit is so strong he is oozing magic, every fiber of his being has magic in it. No wonder he is LIVING SO LONG AND STILL WORKING IN ONE OF THE MOST HECTIC JOBS.

"Kaelan Voss!" At the mention of his name, dumbledore's pupils dilated slightly widening in shock, but was fast to regain composure but still unable to escape the notice of Kaelan's zone. Why? My name, what is so unique about it? Baah... Whatever he might have been suprised by something else. I soon recieved a wack on the head while everyone in the hall was looking at me by none other than the cutest girl. "What are you spacing out for? Your name's been called. Everyone is hungry go get it done with fast!" she beckoned me. Embarrassed and with already melting anger in front of her I moved and sat down on the stool.

The hat was placed on me.

"Hmm... Very interesting. Hufflepuff and Revenclaw are quite suitable but definitely...

RAVENCLAW!!"

Loud cheers filled the whole which was not so much compared to other cheers because the house seemed to have had not too good of a first impression of me. Spacing out after my name was called, not very intelligent in their opinion. Sigh... This may be annoying because as they say, first impressions are truly everything. Sigh....

Dumbledore watched me move to the house table closely with squinted eyes, well I did too, with squinted 4th dimension eyes scanning every inch of the man trying not get caught up in the storm of that strong spirit. But soon Dumbledore stopped looking at me and moved on to look at Harry.
