The Dungeons
Soon as the Train reached Hogwarts and Sirius saw Hagrid and thought about how he had called for the first years back when Sirius was a kid and his mind wandered over to that day.
Original Dimension, 1971 September 1
Hogwarts:
Little 11 Year old Sirius Black got off the castle and heard a Giant man calling the first years.
He along with James followed them.
He sat on a Boat along with James and two boys who he came to know as Remus Lupin and Peter Pettigrew.
“So what house do you think you will go to” James asked Remus
“Dad was a Gryffindor, Mom is a Muggle so I don’t really know” the boy answered
“My families are gryffindor” Peter replied.
“Same” James replied
“My Whole Family wa sin Slytherin but I may break the family tradition” Sirius laughed not knowing how true his words
Soon Professor Mcgonagall lectured them all about the four houses and how they were your family during the seven years.
Soon she brought out a battered hat
“When I call out your name, you will come forward and you will be sorted.
Soon the hat began to sing
“"Oh you may not think I'm pretty,
But don't judge on what you see,
I'll eat myself if you can find
A smarter hat than me.
You can keep your bowlers black,
Your top hats sleek and tall,
For I'm the Hogwarts Sorting Hat
And I can cap them all.
There's nothing hidden in your head
The Sorting Hat can't see,
So try me on and I will tell you
Where you ought to be.
You might belong in Gryffindor,
Where dwell the brave at heart,
Their daring, nerve, and chivalry
Set Gryffindors apart;
You might belong in Hufflepuff,
Where they are just and loyal,
Those patient Hufflepuffs are true
And unafraid of toil;
Or yet in wise old Ravenclaw,
if you've a ready mind,
Where those of wit and learning,
Will always find their kind;
Or perhaps in Slytherin
You'll make your real friends,
Those cunning folks use any means
To achieve their ends.
So put me on! Don't be afraid!
And don't get in a flap!
You're in safe hands (though I have none)
For I'm a Thinking Cap!
Sirius was shocked at a singing hat and his mouth was wide open.
“Close your mother Sirus” James said nuging him
“Sorry” He grinned at James.
Soon the sorting began and soon
“Black, Sirius” she called.
He just went towards the hat and she put it on him.
“Ah, another Black I see but one with doubts I see” it started
“wow you can hear my thoughts” he asked
“Course Boy, I was created with the magic of all the founders, you don’t like Slytherin and don’t quite like your Family I see” it continued
“yes, they suck” Sirius agreed
“I can sense Bravery though, you are the first black with that quality, you will do very well in Slytherin I suppose but you don’t belong there, no you don’t. ah yes I have the perfect house”
“GRYFFINDOR” It yelled
The whole Castle became dead silent
There was never a Black who was in any house than Slytherin.
Soon Professor Dumbledore started clapping and soon the Gryffindor house started clapping and even James Remus and peter were clapping.
He made the mistake of looking at the Slytherin Table and felt the cold Glare of Sixth Year Prefect Narcissa Black and her boyfriend Lucius Malfoy.
He soon went over to the Gryffindor Table
“My Home” He thought laughing.
Soon he saw the girl on the Train with that weird boy had also been sorted into Gryffindor
“Congrats” He said to her
But that girl just glared at him and sat faraway from him. But Sirius didn’t care as soon enough all of James Remus and Peter had been sorted into Gryffinfor and were also Dorm mates. That was the start of the Marauders.
PRESENT:
Sirius relapsed from his Trance when he felt a nudge and turned around to find Anthony Avery
“You all right Mate” the boy asked
Sirius just nodded as he admonished himself for again losing control over his senses and going into another episode of his past which he felt himself slipping into, it was easier thinking about this good things though he didn’t knew whether he might be having memories of that wretched night of 1981.
He then followed Avery who to his shock was the prefect.
“So how is the Quidditch Practice going on” Avery asked
“As good as it can be, we have the best seeker after all” Sirius replied
He had learnt about the quidditch team from Regulus who even though he felt his brother was being weird over the past 10 days said nothing and just told about it
Regulus was the seeker, He and a third year old boy Marcus Grey were the beaters. Julian Greengrass was the keeper and Vincent Mulciber, Olivia Parkinson and Laurent Julian were the Chasers.
Sirius never played for the Gryffindor Team during his original time and though he wont admit to anyone it was due to Regulus being the seeker.
“Welcome back from the Holidays, Students we wish you a good second term here and Fifth and Seven years hope you all prepare well for your O.W.L.S and N.E.W.T.S” Dumbledore announced after all the students had settled down.
“My father was saying That Mudblood loving Oldie is causing the dark lord all kind of problems” Avery was saying to Sirius
Sirius wanted nothing more than to Curse Avery for using that Slur but just controlled his anger and said nothing but nodded.
“Yeah after all he is the most powerful wizard the world has seen” Sirius said chuckling
“The Dark Lord is the most powerful Wizard not this Madman” Avery argued getting red in the face
“If you say so” Sirius said knowing he has won this round.
Soon Dumbledore announced for everyone to go to their Common Room.
Sirius dreaded the Dungeon but followed Avery Snape and Mulciber to the Room.
“Salazar” Avery said to the Stonewall near the dungeon and then the Wall opened up and everyone went to the Common Room
Slytherin common room was under the Lake and Sirius shivered under the cold, it was first time he was in this horrible common room and he already hated It so much and wanted nothing more than to burn this Room.
“Come on, let us go to our Bunk” Snape said to Sirius
Sirius just nodded and they climbed to the Fifth Year Boys Bunk
He groaned as he saw that Snape Avery Mulciber were his room mates even though he probably know that they were gonna be there but still he hoped.
Soon he changed into his Pajamas getting out of the Horrible Uniform and just slept hoping that when he wakes up the next day he would be back in the Gryffindor room with the Marauders.
