Harry Potter: Dion the magician who changed everything

Suspense covered the dining room for about 10 minutes, people did not take their eyes off the hat trying to deduce what was what so much murmured, murmurs could be heard in the background doubtful of what was really happening, even some of them were hungry, and those who were sleepy to see that I was still sitting awoke attentive to know what was the verdict of the hat.

Even professors were filled with trepidation and surprise that it was one of the longest times that the Sorting Hat took so long to choose a house for a single student, considering that some students were told their house they belonged to in less than 5 seconds.

"Those wizards who created me and became the founders made my mind reading ability almost impossible to avoid for some reason I can't see past your last months... but from what I see you have lived a great loss, you live with hatred in your heart, something dangerous to tell the truth..."- says the hat.

"I just want to leave my parents' last name high in honor of them, even though they were taken from this life I want to protect the people I love, hate is not the problem, the problem will be the people who cross my path."

"I can see you are loosening up more little one, you have a lot of potential, even your wand is an incredible work, the work of a demon with a perverse mind, to create something like that is for someone who doesn't know the danger it can cause to magical society, but more amazing to me is your ability to learn to take control of it in a few weeks, something that would cost many of the wizards here." - Said the hat pointing its tip at teachers and students.

"Professor McGonagall is everything all right with that boy?"- asked Dumbledore as he stood up.

These were the last words I heard before collapsing to the floor for a few seconds. Seconds in which the hat was able to communicate with me.

"I am afraid of what you may become boy, I hope you achieve great things, I have already decided what your house will be, the perfect house for you to perfect your power and go very far with your wit, the perfect house to forge bravery, at the same time you can open your heart more with those who come on the way to your life, it only remains to tell you good luck boy, we will continue to see each other." - says the hat in my mind while I am still away from my reality due to the little fainting I had.

"Oh how well he's waking up"- says a thick voice coming from headmaster albus dumbledore.

When I opened my eyes the teacher quickly removed my hat and the principal was in front of me, even some students were around me and the murmurs turned into constant noise of shouts and voices throughout the dining room.

"Everyone take a seat and be quiet, the ceremony continues give the boy room to breathe" shouted one of the teachers who was in the dining room.

"Are you all right, boy?" asks Professor McGonagall.

"Yes ma'am, I don't know what came over me, I'm sorry."

"It's the overload of the hat, no one has ever lasted with the hat on for so long, the hat going into the head of the wearer forces the person in some ways to be able to read their thoughts and get to know the person."- explains Professor McGonagall.

"Who knew there would be someone capable of beating your record, Professor McGonagall," says a teacher with a chuckle. A gray-haired professor with one arm missing, his clothes somewhat dirty and torn, and one of his eyes missing.

"Shut up Silvanus this is no time for jokes, listen boy, Your selection is postponed for now for now rest and get in line again."

Getting to my feet and walking a bit I managed to get back to where Patrick was.

"Dude... is everything okay?"- patrick asks.

"Just a little dizzy but nothing that won't go away later."

"Very well dear students excuse the slight inconvenience, we will continue with the ceremony."- says Professor McGonagall.

"No! I have made a decision."

The astonishment of all the people present in the room is inevitable, the hat that was also silent for so long let out a heartbreaking scream.

"Your house child... shall be, Ravenclaw!"

A moment of silence fills the room and moments later everyone applauds with joy, even more the Ravenclaws to have such a curious boy in their house.

 "Go, they are waiting for you at the table, I will come in a few minutes, just wait for me a little bit"- Patrick says.

Without saying anything else I go to the table of the ravenclaw house, when I take my seat many students jump on me to greet me and ask me questions about what I talked to the hat. They are so intense that they force another teacher to intervene in the mess that was being made at the Ravenclaw table.

"Quiet students, if you don't want to lose points, it's better to keep your mouth shut"- says the professor of thin build with pale skin, dressed in a black robe and his hair that had the same dark color was long and greasy. He had a murderous look.

"Pff what laziness, Professor Severus Snape, is one of the worst teachers here."- says one of the boys in a very low voice to avoid being heard by the teacher, which did not work, because in the blink of an eye the teacher from the shadows appears quickly behind him.

"so one of the worst, eh student damian"- says professor severus, while taking one of his ears and stretching it, " I will see you in tomorrow's class to verify that what just came out of your mouth mr. damian."

The look of fear on the faces of the other students is evident; it is as if they are seeing the grim reaper himself in person.

"As for you Mr. Dion, I can't wait to see what talents or qualities you hide to make the magic hat so doubtful," says Professor Severus, who, being closer, can be seen that his eyes seem lifeless and his yellow and crooked teeth make his look and appearance more sinister.

"It's no big deal Professor Severus...to tell you the truth I'm just hoping to learn new things."

"Hmm a dull thought for someone to be talking about on his first day," Severus finishes as he disappears again in an instant and immediately appears back in the main teachers' dining room.

"My life is over!" says the boy named Damien as he begins to cry and some of his classmates hug him in consolation for what lies ahead.

"All right next up is Patrick Williams Patel."- Professor McGonagall.

The eyes turn again to the front of the dining room where the students who have yet to be called for their house selection are located.

"Come in please Patrick Williams Patel" - repeats Professor McGonagall.

As I look towards Patrick I can see that he is paralyzed and his hands are shaking. For a moment he looks in my direction and to motivate I throw a look of acceptance and confidence for him to take his first step forward. Which he almost as if he had heard me and takes a small breath and walks forward.

"It's me," Patrick shouts excitedly.

"Very well, please take a seat."

Patrick takes a seat and the hat is placed on his head, the hat covers his eyes a little and immediately the hat starts talking, which I now understand from this position.

The hat moves its mouth but nothing of what it says can be heard, even when the place is in complete silence. Standing there, we can make out a small noise but nothing that can be understood, but from here it seems impossible.

"Can you find anything?"- says a ravenclaw student.

"No nothing yet, it's impossible to read their lips, and the magic to listen at a distance doesn't work either, it's as if they have a shield that doesn't allow any spell to reach them." - Damian says already a little calmer while wiping his tears and rubbing his ear.

Incredibly patrick lasts 6 minutes with the hat talking to him, you can even see that the hat is still hesitating about which house would be the best for him, the other students have the same expression they had when I was sitting there, their intrigue and suspense consumes them and keeps them attentive.

"Alright this year brings surprises, ravenclaw!"- shouted the hat.

"Patrick jumps out of his chair and takes off his hat before Professor McGonagall does, proceeds to quickly hand it to her and runs over to the ravenclaw table excitedly.

"Dion, I told you we were going to stay together, now yes, let's become the best wizards at Hogwarts together!"- Patrick exclaims excitedly.

"Hahaha, that's the way it's going to be Patrick, we'll go far...we have to get there."
