AN: First of all, sorry it took so long. I've been in and out of the hospital and the doctors. I still don't know what's wrong....
BUT! I've been writing (not typing) lately, and I've got like to chapter five done. x] Yay! And yeah.... plus school started, so I'm trying to keep my grades up.

Disclaimer: Unfortunetly, I do not own anything, except the snake, Emily Rose, her adopted family, and the words.

ONWARDS!

The Sorting and The Great Hall Incident

Emily Rose walked down the hall to the Great Hall, she pushed open the large oak doors as she stepped threw, letting her look around the room. The room was decked out in Yellow, Black, Red, Gold, Silver, Green, Purple, and Blue. Four large tables were set out while several hundred students all sat in them; at the end of the hall was a long table set for the teachers and adults.

Fully aware of everyone's eyes on her, especially a pair of Emerald green eyes and Silver grey eyes, she walked forward, her pace purposeful and her gait graceful. She stepped onto the platform, the wooden stool still up from the first year sorting. Dumbledore smiled at her, "Emily Rose, if you'll kindly take a seat, we'll sort you."

She nodded once and sat down on the stool, which until several minutes earlier had held the first years as they were sorted. A large, disfigured hat was placed on her head before it began speaking. 'Ah yes, Miss Emily Rose, a girl of many faces no? Hmmm… you are surrounded in so much potential, you will be like your brother? Or will you strive to the upmost importance?'

Emily Rose's eyes narrowed slightly, causing several people who had been staring at them to flinch at the anger in them. "I prefer to follow my own path in life. Even if it is carved on stone and magic and set in the Department of Mysteries." She answered heatedly.

"Intelligence, understanding, bravery and loyalty, cunning, and power; you're a bit of all the houses, no? Though Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw would do you no good."

Emily Rose crossed her arms and asked, "And the verdict is…?"

The hat chuckled, "Impatience will get you nowhere in life little one, remember that and all will be well. But, as I was saying, it all comes down to Gryffindor and Slytherin, the house of Lions and the house of Snakes." He paused for dramatic effect. "Your much more trouble sorting than your brother little one; I daresay you should go in both. Therefore," he paused before yelling out, "SLYTHERIN!" he paused, everyone, especially the Slytherin boys, were clapping hard and cheering for having the beauty in their house. The hat then finished his sentencing, "AND GRYFFINDOR!"

The silence was instantaneous as everyone watched her smirk and pull the hat off her head, she walked down to the Gryffindor table gracefully, fully aware of every single pair of eyes following her as she came to a stop in front of Harry Potter, who was also watching her with a smirk. "'ello brother," Emily Rose stated, ignoring the many gasps and whispering and the one, "I FANCY A POTTER?!?!" from the Slytherin table, much to the amusement of everyone else. "May I sit down?"

Harry nodded, and she gracefully allowed herself to sit down next to him and another boy. She greeted the other two members of the Golden Trio. "'ello Ron and 'Moine, I'm Harry's little sister."

Hermione smiled, "Hi Emily Rose, Harry never told us he had a little twin sister." She sent him a icy glare, while Ron snapped his head back and forth between the two.

"Albie, err, Professor Dumbledore told him not to tell anyone, we didn't want Lo' Voldy to know about me. Security reasons, ya'know? I was at Drumstrang getting tutored, which reminds me. 'Mione, Viktor sends his greetings." She smiled before she started eating her mashed potatoes.

A boy with short, spiked blonde hair and blue eyes sat down next to her and wrapped his arm around her shoulders before introducing himself, " 'ello there love, the name is Seamus."

Emily Rose's eyes suddenly narrowed viciously as she slowly turned her head to look at him and whispered deadly, "You have exactly three seconds to let go of me."

He pouted childishly, although his hand left her shoulder as though it was on fire; everyone laughed at him. While they finished eating their dinners, they all stood up and began heading back to their dorms. Ron and Hermione both headed up towards the front for perfect duties, while Harry went to escort his girlfriend to their common room.

Emily Rose walked to the Headmasters office; she paused upon seeing two adults bickering at each other. One was a man with greasy-slicked back black hair in black robes while the other was an older woman with graying-brown hair pulled into a tight bun and wearing robes that were red and gold.

She rolled her eyes at their fighting as they ignored her. "—I don't care Severus!"

"She is a Slytherin too!" the man yelled back.

Emmi walked over to the two adults and cleared her throat, getting their attention. They turned to look at her, blinking at realizing that she was there for the first time before she rolled her eyes and turned her attention to the gargoyle in front of the door. "Chocolate Frogs."

The gargoyle jumped out of the way and Emmi climbed up the stairs, followed by the two teachers. She knocked on the door and waited until she heard the soft, "Come in." before opening the door and entering the office.

The Headmaster smiled from his desk at the young girl, "Ah, hello Emmi, how are you?"

"Quite fine Albie." She answered with a smile.

Dumbledore cleared his throat before talking, "Seeing as how Emily Rose was chosen into both houses, she will be given a special room to her own. A common room for herself will connect it with that of Gryffindor and Slytherin."

The man in black, or Severus Snape, snorted and muttered something like, "Potter brats are out to put me in an early grave." The woman, Professor McGonagall, rolled her eyes at her colleague while the Headmaster has that ever-present twinkle in his eyes.

The group of four then departed from the room and threw the halls, up the ever-changing stairs, down several more hallways before they came across a painting that had the two founders, Godric Gryffindor, and Salazar Slytherin in it. The two was bickering about something when they approached them.

"Hello there Salazar and Godric." Dumbledore greeted them.

"Hello Albus." They both greeted him simultaneously.

"This is your new charge, Miss Emily Rose Potter."

They both look her over, "She's acceptable." Salazar answered.

Godric simply rolled his eyes and cuffed him on the back of his head. Emily Rose giggled, which brought the attention back to her. Dumbledore then said the password, "Phoenixes snake."

The portrait opened and Dumbledore smiled softly, "Goodnight Emily Rose, Minnie, and Severus." With his goodbyes said, the headmaster then pivoted and walked off back to his room. The two professors nodded before leaving.

Emmi walked up the stairs to her new room and glanced around to find a large living room that had a small kitchenette to the side. It was heavily decorated in silver, gold, green, and red. The couch for three was red and silver, the two lounging chairs were gold and green, and it also had a wooden coffee table that was rounded.

Two doors next to each other, one with silver writing and green outline saying, 'Slytherin common room' and one with gold writing and red outline saying, 'Gryffindor common room'. Another door on the opposite wall was marked, 'Bedroom' while a door near the kitchenette was marked, 'Bathroom'.

Emmi nodded and walked into the bedroom, it was spacious, but not overly-done. It had a silver and green bed, with bed hangings up, making it look regal and royal. The bed held no wrinkles, and the pillows were fluffed for extra softness. There was also a desk, a dresser, a door which ultimately lead to the bathroom, her trunk at the bottom of her bed, a window and window seat, as well as a medium-sized pet bed in the corner of the room, which currently held a small, green anaconda.

Emmi smiled softly before transfiguring her clothes into a loose tank top, a pair of old sweats, and some knee-high green and silver socks. She quickly pulled her hair into a pony-tail before pulling the comforter back and crawling into the bed, hissing softly to the snake, "Goodnight Decorus periculosus."

Emmi sighed before waving her wand, extinguishing all the lights before falling into a deep sleep; never knowing that half the school went to bed thinking about her, especially one blonde in particular.

Draco: You make me sound like some common stalker!

Emmi: That's because you are...

Draco: Hey! Not cool! I am a pure-blood!

Harry: More like wanna-be pure-blood.

Draco: Oh yeah Half-blood? I'm WAY better than you!

Harry: At least I have people out to kill me! I'm THAT special!

Emmi: Only you Harry would be proud that a physopath is after you...

Draco: Hey Emmi, I found a closet... can I go show you my glow-in the dark watch?

Emmi: SURE! *runs off, pulling Draco into the closet*

Harry: Oi! DRACO! KEEP YOUR HANDS OFF MY SISTER! *runs after them*

Randomonia: Well, while this is getting good, review so we find out what happens next. I'll have to remember to bring popcorn and soda next time...
