《The Lion and The Raven ~ James Potter AU》CHAPTER 5

"Hey Cam!" screamed James.
Blonde hair turned to face them in surprise before becoming happy.
"Bon Soir. I couldn't find you both at the boats." she replied.
Professor McGonnall had just gone back into the huge doors after introducing herself and giving a quick description of the Hogwarts houses.
"Did you meet up with your cousins?" asked Sirius, appearing from beside James.
Camilla nodded. "Oui, I did. I have to introduce you to them later."
"Ah-hem." came the voice of Fabian Prewett, as he cleared his voice.
"Oh right!" exclaimed James. "Camilla, these are our friends- Fabian Prewett and Frank Longbottom. Guys, this is Camilla Lavensque."
The boys both bowed and kissed her hand after she gave a light curtesy.
"Which house do you want to get sorted into?" asked Frank, attempting to make conversation.
"I belong in Slytherin. However, I am going to try to trick the Hat into sorting me into Ravenclaw." replied Camilla.
"You WANT to go to Slytherin?!" exclaimed James.
Sirius sighed and shook his head with disappointment, "And just when I thought I liked you."
Camilla, unaffected by this simply shrugged. "I'm ambitious. Not everyone who goes into Slytherin emerges mad, crazy and trying to take over the world, you know? I'm not chivalrous or brave. So, I can't go to Gryffindor. I'm not exactly accepting or loyal, ruling out Hufflepuff. I am, however, very very ambitious and I always get what I want. Slytherin is thus perfect for me. But..."
"But?" questioned Prewett.
Camilla's lips quirked, "I had a wager with my cousins earlier. Both of them bet I was going to Slytherin. So, I'm going to do everything possible not to get into Slytherin. I'm smart and a little curious, so Ravenclaw's my best bet. Besides, a Slytherin not going into Slytherin? That would be the most Slytherin thing to do."

"True.." replied Prewett with a laugh.
"But- but-" started James. "Slytherins are all evil!"
Camilla widened her eyes. "James! That is no way to talk about your mother."
And thats when James remembered that Lady Potter was, infact, a Slytherin and a very proud one at that.
"You mentioned something about a Hat." commented Sirius, steading the topic.
"Why did you?" asked Longbottom curiously.
Camilla looked at them strangely, "You all do know that we are sorted into our Houses based on the opinions of a singing hat, right? My cousins told me that."
"A Hat?-
"What happened to the troll-
"Thank goodness-
"I can not have hat hair-
"They are ready for you now." interrupted the Scottish professor.
The children followed her.
... "Black, Sirius!"
"GRYFFINDOR"

"Fawley, Catherine"

"SLYTHERIN!"
That day saw the highest number of Gryffindors sorted, much to Headmaster Dumbledoor's delight- 11 to be exact. There were also 8 Ravenclaws, 6 Slytherins and 9 Hufflepuffs.

Den of Vipers
The Year is XXXX, and a deep, heavy fog sets in all over not just the planet, but the whole of the universe, sending all within into a deep, deep sleep. When they awake, all has changed, and both for the better and the worse. Everything has changed, from the new, impossibly massive planet that all now occupy to the terrain to the very rules of reality themselves. But what has changed the most are the people. It seemed as though Humanity was alone in the cosmos, but no longer, as new, monstrous races have been born from the flesh of those whom the Fog singled out. With the survivors rewarded for each altered former human they kill, along with each heroic (and villainous) act that they engage in, those who have changed are forced to run, hide, and try to fight back. But in a distant place, a single altered person stirs from her sleep as the Fog fades. With no Humans for hundreds of miles and a [Quest] that all other Altered share guiding her newly inhuman mind, the newly born serpentine but humanoid monster will have to fight for survival and dominance in a world hellbent on her death, with that violent, pathological hate coming not just from the remaining Humans.
