I’m Harry Potter - Chapter 29
When the sorting hat called out my placement, the Ravenclaw table screamed and cheered at the top of their lungs. The Gryffindors all looked like they ate something sour. The main consensus was that I’d be in Gryffindor because both of my parents were. They all probably got their hopes up, and now those sky-high expectations are crashing down. After all the celebration, I sat in the middle of Padma and Hermione. Padma was looking at me as if I wronged her, and Hermione is just looking at me with stars in her eyes.
“What’s the matter?” I asked
“You never said that you’re Harry Potter.” Padma said, looking disgruntled.
“And you never said that you’re Padma Patil.” I said
“That’s different! I’m not famous.” Padma said
“So, every famous person should announce who they are whenever they meet someone new? Ohh, hello, I’m Harry Potter, if you didn’t know I’m really famous.” I said in a mocking manner.
“Alright, I’ll admit that sounds kind of stupid.” She said sheepishly.
“Yes, yes it does. How about we restart. Hello, I’m Harry Potter, nice to meet you.” I said.
“Hi, I’m Padma Patil.” She said, with a smile on her face.
“Can I have your attention, please!” Dumbles said “I want to welcome all of our new and old students. I hope you all have a fun and eventful year at Hogwarts. Now, let the feast begin!” He said, and the tables filled with different types of food. I stocked my plate with chicken wings, peppers and onions, and cornbread. At the Gryffindor table, I could see Ron Weasley devouring food like an animal.
When the feast ended, we were escorted to our respective common rooms. A prefect explained that we have to answer a riddle if we wanted to get into the common room. I guess if you don’t know the answer you’re screwed until someone who can answer it shows up. The common room itself is a cozy library with a fireplace. Once we were all inside, our head of house came to welcome us. Filius Flitwick walked in with hurried steps and an excited smile.
“It’s so good to have new students! Hello everyone, I’m your head of house Filius Flitwick, and I’ll also be your charms professor. I hope if any of you have questions you’ll come to me, my door is always open. Each of you will have your own personal rooms, but remember boys aren’t allowed in girl’s rooms and vice versa. Also please remember that there is a 10:00 pm curfew for all students. I will give you your class schedules tomorrow at breakfast, so don’t be late.” Flitwick said, and had the prefects show us to our rooms.
When I got to my room, I locked the door and got to work. The room wasn’t very big so let’s fix that first. I snap my fingers and runes carved themselves into the corners of each room, and the room quadrupled in size. Now that I have space let’s upgrade the furniture.
“Mimsy!” I called.
*pop*
“Yes, master Harry sir?” She appeared.
“Can you replace the furniture in here with the furniture from the master bedroom in Black Mansion.” I asked.
“Yes, sir.” She said, taking every piece of furniture out of the room, and replacing them with more high quality furnishings. The room now had a carpet, king-sized bed, dresser, wardrobe, desk, sofa, etc. I also changed the color scheme of the room to match the Ravenclaw colors of blue and bronze.
My room doesn’t have its own bathroom, so I’ll have to work on that, but not today because it’s getting late. I turned on the TV climbed into bed, and flipped through the channels until I fell asleep. The next morning Mimsy woke me up before everyone else. I did my daily stretches and exercises then found the showers of the dorm. After cleaning myself up, I went down to the Great Hall, but I was the first one there, so I went to explore the school until breakfast starts.
I made my way to the forbidden corridor of death to meet Fluffy. Easily unlocking the door I see a giant three-headed dog. Fluffy starts growling at me as one of its heads snaps its teeth at me. I simply use my Telekinesis to lift him up flipping him on his back holding him still. Walking up to Fluffy I start rubbing his stomach, and his leg starts kicking up and down. The best way to get a dog to like you is either through food or belly rubs.
“Are you going to be a good boy now?” I said while releasing my telekinesis, and Fluffy stands up. “You want a treat?” I said, and his tail starts wagging. “I’ll take that as a yes. Mimsy!”
*pop*
“Master Harry called?” Mimsy said, then noticed Fluffy “Ahhhhh!” *pop* She screamed and apparated behind me. “M-Master H-Harry there’s a big dog over there.”
“Don’t worry, he won’t hurt you as long as you’re with me.” I said, patting her head. “Can you go and get some meat to feed him? Preferably some steaks, but we may need a large amount.” I said, and Mimsy nodded sheepishly taking a peek at Fluffy before popping away. When she came back, she brought 15 large steaks, and we fed Fluffy together. “Sit!” I said, and after he sits Mimsy throws a steak for him to catch. This continued with different commands until it was about time for breakfast, so I got ready to leave, but Fluffy started whining. “Listen pup, I have to go and get some things done, but I’ll come back soon, I promise.” I said, placating him as I leave.
When I got back to the Great Hall, Padma and Hermione were awake and saved me a seat between them. While eating Professor Flitwick came around and handed out our schedules.
