Chapter 4 Hogwarts

(warning Dark Scene, Involving Abuse in this Chapter)

As they chatted the Compartment door was opened and a Girl with big front teeth and messy hair stepped inside a bit, behind her a boy, looked rather panicked. "Have you guys seen Nevills Toad here?" She asked and Morgana coughed to gain her attention, "First it is rude to enter a Compartment without knocking first. Secondly, you should introduce yourself before entering uninvited, Third, it is can you help us please, we are looking for a missing Toad, do you have any information?" Morgana corrected her.

(Scenes will start here)

Hermione blushed as she noticed the other two boys looking at her and nodding to what Morgana has said and realized how she was rude. "I am sorry, my name is Hermione Granger, this here is Neville Longbottom, we are looking for his Toad, have you seen it and have any information?" She asked and Morgana was a bit satisfied. "Hello Hermione, this is Ron Weasley, next to him is Harry Potter and I am Morgana Black" Morgana introduced himself, but before he could even finish his sentence, the Boy behind Hermione pushed her back and punched Morgana straight into his face and them pummeled him. Merlin angry at the one assaulting his Master bit the Boys ankle till it bled, as Harry and Ron tried getting Neville off Morgana.

Hermione just looked shocked as Neville looked like a nice and shy boy, she would never expect he would assault someone like this. Morgana was shocked as the Punch hit his face and he was tackled against the Compartment wall and get punched over and over again. He was dizzy and disoriented just after the first punch and as the pain assaulted him, he felt weak and helpless as he was seemingly pulled back into his past.

"You useless piece of shit, not only did the Teachers call they even want to visit us! How dare you tell them how we treat you!" His Mother screamed as she grabbed the nearest alcohol bottle and beat the six-year-old boy that was huddled in the Corner crying. "I didn´t tell! I Didn´t Tell!" He stammered, but his Mother did not Listen. His Father just watching from the nearby couch, just looking at his useless son like he deserved that beating. After the Mother let out her frustrations, she looked at the Shit that was her Son, not her son, but a burden! He was bloody, as the Bottle shattered while beating him, cursing as she saw him lose blood, she dragged him to the Bathroom and cleaned him up, and bandaged him, before throwing him in the Empty broom closet and locking him inside there and saying "No food for Today for you!"

(Scene Stops)

"Stop!" Hermione cried and as the three worked together they were finally able to pull Neville off Morgana. Morgana was beaten black and blue, Merlin growled at Neville and licked Morgana's face. Feeling the deep despair Morgana was in. Morgana slowly returned out of the Dark memories as he felt Merlin trying to reach him with their bond. Slowly coming back he only felt pain and looked at Merlin who laying on his chest whining and licking his face. Turning to the Side he saw Ron and Harry holding back Neville and telling him about Morgana's past. Neville himself slowly grew pale and shuddered.

Hermione was not there, but shortly she came back with a Lady, who probably mans the Sweet cart. "Oh Merlin, what happened here?" She asked as she saw Morgana and quickly went over. Slowly pulling him up, she looked him up and down. She quickly ran out and came back with a few bandages and potions. "Drink this!" she commanded Morgana and Morgana complied as he drank the Potions and the Pain stopped. "Sadly we do not store many Potions on the Express, I will inform the Teachers, that after the Sorting Ceremony, you should visit Madam Pomfrey to get treated!" the Witch said a bit sad, and did her best to patch Morgana up and treated the bite wound on Neville's ankle.

After this, she looked at the other four "Who did this?" She asked angrily and Neville raised his hands slowly. "You are in an awful amount of trouble, mister Longbottom!" She stated and Neville swallowed "You know my name?" he asked. "I knew your Parents, mister Longbottom." She stated and Morgana slowly spoke "It is not his fault, do not punish him" Morgana said and the Witch turned around to him. "What do you mean it is not his fault?" She asked and Morgana just said one thing "My last name is Black, though I only recently discovered I was one of them, this should explain it." he said and the Witch soon understood.

"It is still Neville's fault, although you are a Black, you are a child and Innocent, till now you have not done anything bad and you should carry the punishment of the older generations." The Witch said and then looked at Neville. "I will report this incident to the School, the Teachers will decide how to deal with it, but I will also tell them that Morgana had already forgiven you." She said and then left. Neville apologized and then scurried off. Hermione followed him but also apologized to Morgana before leaving.

Ron and Harry did their best to cheer up Morgana, Morgana though did not smile and only looked out the window, wondering why this Memory he tried so hard to forget came back. The Hogwarts express soon arrived at Hogsmeade and the three put on the Plain Black Robe and left the Express. "First year´s First Year´s gather here" Hagrid shouted and waved for the first years to gather by him. As the three walked towards him Hagrid noticed Harry "Hey Harry, are these your friends?" Hagrid asked and Harry looked at both and then nodded. "They are Ron Weasley and Morgana Black" Harry said and Hagrid looked at both and maybe looked at Morgana a bit too long, but then smiled.

"Nice to meet you, but seems like everyone is here" Hagrid said, and then shouted "Follow me!" before walking on forward, the first years all followed till they reached a stony beach with boats. "Up to four on a Boat!" Hagrid said before getting on a Boat by himself. Harry, Ron, and Morgana shared a Boat and soon they all began to move. The Boats seem to float over the Lake water as Morgana looked onto the Lake and saw a few figures dancing on it. They had long blonde hair, and pointy ears and were wearing white dresses. Elfs...Morgana thought and looked away and to the Castle that was now visible from closer.

All first years looked amazed at the Structure before them. but Morgana wondered what Elfs were doing here so close to a school for Wizards? Ignoring that thought the Boats soon reached their end and they all stepped out. Hagrid knocked on the Door, and Professor McGonagall appeared and led the first year further. On the Stairs where they needed to wait, a wild Draco appeared. "You must be Harry Potter, my name is Draco Malfoy, it should be an honor for you to be my friend." Draco said with an arrogant smirk and Harry looked at the Blonde boy. "Fuck off Draco!" Ron barked at Draco and Draco turned to him "Red hair? Shabby clothes that were clearly passed down, you must be a Weasley!" He said and sneered at Ron "You should really look to surround yourself with better people Potter, like me." Draco said and reached out his hand for a handshake.

Harry slapped the Hand away "I can make my own decision about who I take as friends, and you are not one of the ones I would even consider!" Harry said and Draco seemed hurt for a second before walking away and saying "Your choice, but do not come running back to me later, begging to be my friend after you realize how trashy the Weasleys are!" After this, the Screams could be heard as the Ghost flew over the first years. Morgana did not listen to the Ghost to busy talking with Harry and Ron about what the Housing test would be.

"I tell you, we will need to fight a Troll! My Brothers told me this!" Ron said and Harry seemed to be horrified about fighting one. "Relax, we will only need to put on a Hat and it will sort us into our houses. Not to mention that you can influence it a bit, by wishing hard to be sorted into a certain house!" Morgana said, Ron and Harry, looked at him. "What? My Grandma told me about it, everything else are rumors to troll the first years." Morgana stated and Ron had the I knew it expression as he was successfully fooled by his brothers again.

Soon McGonagall opened the Door and the First years walked into the Great Hall, they looked up and saw the enchanted ceiling and Morgana could hear Hermione informing Neville about how the Ceiling is bewitched to look like that, like no shit sherlock... As all first years were inside Professor McGonagall put down a wooden chair and on it an old-looking hat. Before the first years could react the Hat started to sing.

(Mandatory Sorting Hat Song, Deal with it!)

"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 folk 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!"

After the song, Professor McGonagall now stepped forward holding a long roll of parchment. "When I call your name, you will put on the hat and sit on the stool to be sorted," she said. "Abbott, Hannah!" A pink-faced girl with blonde pigtails stumbled out of line, put on the hat, which fell right down over her eyes, and sat down. A moment's pause -- "HUFFLEPUFF!" shouted the hat. The table on the right cheered and clapped as Hannah went to sit down at the Hufflepuff table.

(Copied the Song and the Paragraph under it from a source I found in Google, will now write further on my own.)

"Bones, Susan!" "HUFFLEPUFF!"

"Boot, Terry!" "RAVENCLAW!"

"Black, Morgana!" As the name was shouted the Hall turned quiet as Morgana walked up and sat down on the Chair, McGonagall put the Hat on his Head and he heard a voice in his Head. "Hmm, difficult, difficult, But since you are a Black it is easy!" Morgana wanted to refuse, but the Hat shouted out "SLYTHERIN!" Morgana was stunned and then the Hat was removed from his head. McGonagall looked at him and Morgana could only wander to the Slytherin table and sit down.

The Sorting Ceremony went on as usual with Harry, Ron, Hermione, and Neville landing in Gryffindor and Draco with his goons landing in Slytherin. Draco did not really look at him, too busy talking with Daphne Greengrass, well more Daphne talking with Draco, and naturally, Draco shit-talking Harry and Ron. As everyone was sorted, Dumbledore stood up.

"Welcome," he said. "Welcome to a new year at Hogwarts! Before we begin our banquet, I would like to say a few words. And here they are: Nitwit! Blubber! Oddment! Tweak!

After saying this he sat back down and summoned the food, though Morgana knew that it was the House-elves that teleported the food up. As he took some food on his plate, Draco turned to him and asked "I did not know that House Black had an heir, if I remember I saw you with Potter earlier?" Morgana nodded "Hmpf, then you should know how bad the Potters must have fallen to befriend a Weasley, anyway, I am Draco Malfoy, let's be friends, after all, we are family in a way!" Draco said and Morgana thought to himself "We are family... your Aunt is your Mother!" but did not say anything.

"Sure." Morgana agreed as he knew Draco was not all bad. He was still in the early stages when he was influenced by his family. At most, the Current Draco was a typical school bully. "Good!" Draco said and then started talking about how great he and his Malfoy family was. But Morgana did not listen and simply secretly smuggled some bones to his feet, since Merlin was hiding in his shadow.
