Weavers of Light & Darkness
A Harry Potter UNIVERSE/ Sasporilla Bucket Fan Fiction
by Darren Kelly
Chapter 3
2nd year students and older went straight to their common rooms and given their room assignments. Sasporilla was in the same room this year as she was last year but there were three other girls in the room with her.
Enchandra Benz who transferred from Bauxbatons. She was a dark haired girl from Spain who was full muggle born. Janey Grotinag, a bestial girl that many said was part troll. She was very nice despite her limited vocabulary and body odor. Karry Curtiss was the last one to arrive lugging her heavy bag with her. She dumped its contents out onto to bed and to Sasporillas surprise it was full of old books on spells, hexes, charms and curses.
The students changed into their robes and shuffled down by houses into the great hall for the welcome and sorting ceremony. Karry sat next to Sasporilla and they chatted until the sorting ceremony began. Sasporilla noticed Hagrid wasn't present at the head table this year. In fact he was no where to be found.
The sorting ceremony brought with it a slew of new first year Hufflepuffs, Ravenclaws and Gryphindors. Sassy noticed Kody Curtiss sitting at the Gryphindor table and she waved to him. To her amusement he waved back with his new Dumbledore card. His two older sisters were sitting at the Ravenclaw table right behind her. The Slytherins were your standard group of posh snob types from old wizarding families that thought themselves above everyone else.
One first year stood out from the rest. When he was called up Zacariah Zarcazzian sat nervously under the sorting hat. He could be seen to be pleading with the sorting shaking his head and when it announced he was "Slytherine" the young man burst into tears and ran out of the great hall.
"Poor soul." Karry whispered to Sasporilla. "I was the same way last year when I didn't get into Ravenclaw."
Headmaster Dumbledore announced Professor Grubbly Plank once again covered magical creatures. A small woman dressed in Pink with exceptionally nice manners was introduced as professor Umbridge. She gave a rousing speech about proper learning. Sasporilla quite agreed with some of the things she said and looked forward to her Defense against the dark arts class.
After a wonderfully filling dinner they all adjourned by houses back to their common rooms. First years followed their prefects to their assigned dorms. You could see the slight touch of homesickness in their eyes behind the excitement and the fear.
Sasporilla popped upstairs to get Gooseberry and then went back down to see if anyone stopped to talk to her. This was a new year and she was positive it would be better than the last. Gooseberry went about his own business saying hello around the common room and stealing small pieces of fruit.
Karry Curtiss plopped down in the overstuffed chair across from Sasporilla and began babbling excitedly. "Ok I heard from Susan Bones, that she herd from Padma Patil that Hermione Granger said that having Umbridge here means the Ministry of Magic is interfering in Hogwarts."
"How so?" Sasporilla asked concerned.
"Well she is one of the bunch that tried to, according to Harry Potter, along with Minister Fudge expel Harry from Hogwarts because of use of magic outside of school." Karry said amazed. "No one gets more than a slap on the wrist for that... ever!"
"I didn't know about that." Sasporilla said. "So why would the ministry interfere with our school."
"Well", Karry Curtiss took a deep breath for this one, "according to Ginny Weasly who heard from her brother George that he heard that Fudge is in denial about you know who being back and he needed to put a spy in for the ministry so he could watch Dumbledore. That's so paranoid!"
"And what if they don't like something the Headmaster does?" Sasporilla asked.
"I don't know." Karry Curtiss said. "I guess we'll have to wait and see.
After a long first day back the children returned to their rooms for their first night sleep away from home. Sasporilla waited until all the other girls in her dorm went to sleep. She sat up in bed and penned a letter to uncle Nick by moonlight.
Dear Uncle Nick;
I read in the Daily Prophet about the Weird Sisters bus crash. It's a tragedy about their manager Williams death. I am very concerned for Myron. If he's missing then he could be badly hurt or without his memory. I need to know everything is being done that can be done for him.
Hope all is well with you;
Sasporilla
