章節 35: Ron's Identity.
"RAVENCLAW!"
As Hermione stood up from the stool, she quickly turned to Ron and nodded towards him. Her nod and his responding one caught Daphne's attention, who's delicate hands balled up into small fists
"*Why did Ron tell her to choose Ravenclaw? Is that where he's planning on going!? Father ordered me to follow family tradition and pick Slytherin...*"
Not wanting to be left behind, Daphne tugged on Ron's sleeve, and whispered to him which didn't go unnoticed by Professor McGonagall.
"Ron are you going to Ravenclaw?"
"Greengrass, Daphne."
Before Ron could answer her question, the old Witch called her name again louder.
"Greengrass, Daphne!"
"Ron..."
Now that everyone in the Hall was staring at her, Daphne hastily turned back and began to make her way to the stool. Although saddened by the thought of being seperated, she was from a Pureblood Family and knew that she couldn't act out as she did in public.
Walking to the stool, her petite frame seemed smaller and thinner every step she got closer to the dirty hat. As she was about to place the old Wizard hat a loud voice rang out to everyone's surprise.
"I really like Ravens!"
When those four words were said it felt like a lightning bolt had struck down on the Great Hall.
"Hahahahahaha!"
"What's up with that kid, and that hair!"
"Look at Mr. No Show --"
"-- Showing off!"
"And here I thought he didn't have a sense of humor!"
"He's got even more than Percy!"
Unlike the twins who began to make light of the Situation, the teachers and even his own brother Percy shook their head in dissatisfaction.
It wasn't until the old man, stood up did the Hall quiet down. Ron noticed the old man's gaze on his person but acted as if he hadn't, he simply stood there with his ever present grin.
"Professor McGonagall, please continue with the sorting!"
"Miss, Greengrass sit!"
Daphne happily complied and wore the old hat, after a few seconds of her muttering something under her breath the hat spoke.
"RAVENCLAW!"
Daphne's addition to the Ravenclaw House, caused another stir amongst the four tables specially in the Slytherin table. Every Pureblood present knew Daphne, or more importantly of the Greengrass Family, one of the Sacred Twenty Eight.
As such when she was walking towards the Ravenclaw table she received claps, followed by boos from the Slytherin's. Due to the low number of students there were large gaps of space on the tables so she was able to sit remotely by herself.
Hermione was seated closer to the front, but when Daphne was also sorted to the same house she went over to her side. Daphne wanted to say something but recalled that Ron told Hermione to choose Ravenclaw, and kept quite while looking at the Crimson Haired boy.
"*With that grin of yours I never know what you're thinking... Are you really going to come?*"

"Parkinson, Pansy."
Being that she was a Pureblood it was no surprise when she became a Slytherin.
The girl was quite happy that unlike Daphne before her she was welcomed by cheers by her fellow Slytherin.
That cheering didn't last long since the next name called made not only the Slytherin Students to lose their minds.
The teachers weren't much better off having had the same reaction, in a rare case of surprise even the old man showed signs of surprisement.
"Prewett Black Weasley, Ronald."
"WHAT!?"
"THIS CAN'T BE! THERE MUST BE SOME MISTAKE!"
"HE'S A WEASLEY! HE'S A BLOODY WEASLEY!"
"Draco! Calm Yourself! Minerva, are you sure you read the correct name?"
"Severus, I'm quite sure I know how to read a simple name!"
Ignoring all of the surrounding hysteria, his name had caused, Ron slowly made his way to the old hat. His every step hasted the breath of every member of the chaotic crowd, as he stood in front of the hat he took out his wand.
"Scourgify."
The old dusty hat was encased by a small breeze before it was almost sparkling by it's apparent cleaning. Now having cleaned the old hat he gently placed it over his head.
"I thank you for the wash, who knows how long it's been since I've had one."
"I dislike dirty things so don't mention it. Instead how about you begin the evaluation?"
"Oh, you're one of those... Those who fit in every house, you have the Cunning of an old Fox, the Bravery to fight against the world, the insatiable hunger for Knowledge, and you place Loyalty above all."
"That's quite the assessment, I'd personally say I'm a Slytherin through and through..."
"For those like yourself, you're allowed to choose your own destiny, so Is Slytherin your choice?"
"No, just me wasting time to be more dramatic, I choose Ravenclaw."
-
While Ron was having small talk with the Hat, everyone in the Hall still hadn't recuperated from the shocking news of his Identity. The one's most effective by Ron's name being made public were his brother's, they were soon berated by the entire student body.
" Fred, George Isn't he your little brother!? Why is he a Prewett and BLACK!?"
"Are you also Prewett and Black's!?"
"Percy, why didn't you say anything!?"
As they were crumbling due to the mobs questioning, Dumbledore used the Sonorus Charm and silenced them again.
That worked with the students but the teachers were also locked in a heated discussion.
"This must be some sort of prank by those Weasley Twins! The Prewett's and Black's are no more!"
"Severus I've already checked the parchment thrice! That is the boy's name! If you'd like here confirm it yourself!"
Snape snatched the parchment off Prof. McGonagall's hands and casted spell after spell trying to undo the supposed charm.
"RAVENCLAW!!!"
