Artemis Penrose

Dinner passed with the sounds of utensils scraping across plates, soft murmurs from here and there and as Artemis finished his plate and placed his fork down, he released tired sigh. The rest of the first-years were being sorted, one within the group caught his eye, he seemed smaller then the rest, he kept fidgeting. 

"Isaac Denoir." The stern-looking women stated after scanning the parchment in her hand, Artemis watched as the raven-haired boy slowly made his way towards the hat and stool, sitting on the seat, the hat is placed on his head and silence fills the Hall as they all wait for its decision. 

The women blinked and frowned down at the hat, confusion clear in her eyes. Denior seemed unable to sit still, his legs were beginning to kick back and forward, his eyes kept scanning the Hall as if waiting for an attack. After another minute or two, Denoir jumped and glanced up at the hat top his head, lips moving silently, the women moved forward, only to pause as the hat bellowed into the air. 

"Hufflepuff!" Denoir jumped from the stool and nearly tripped over in his haste to get to his new house. Artemis frowned and scaneed around the Hall, noticing another boy, the one from before who had denied Malfoy's hand watching Denior with a frown on his lips. 

The sound of someone clapping, distracted him from thinking more on the subject. 

"Now that we've eaten our fill, and have all been sorted, I want to warn you of a few rules. First, when you reach your Houses, you'll find your belongings have already been brought up for you. Second, I'd like us all to welcome our new Defense Against The Dark Arts teacher, Professor Quirrell." The Headmaster gestures to a male with a large purple turban wrapped around his head, Artemis frowns but claps politely as the adult bows and drops back into his seat. "And lastly, the third corridor is off of limits for those who do not wish to die a most painful death. Now off to bed, tomorrow's the first day of classes." The Headmaster offers them a smile and wave, Artemis jumps when a hand falls on his shoulder, glancing behind him, he blinks slowly when his gaze meet silver-gray eyes.

" Were headed for the common room. Are you coming?" Malfoy asks with an arched brow, Artemis rises and for the first time, notices that the other Houses were slowly exiting the double oak doors and into the main corridor. Following after Malfoy and absently caressing his fingers cross the warm wood hidden within the pocket of his robes, he picks up his pace and soon finds himself surrounded by silence. 

"This is the Slytherin common room, the passed to enter is Serpens Custos, remember it or you won't be able to enter." A door appeared where a blank expanse of wall had been, entering and sitting down with the others on the plush carpet before the fire roaring in the fireplace. The man with ink-black hair and robes sat in a chair before them and crossed his legs before speaking once more. "You will live here for the next six years, we protect our own. Any problems you might have, speak either to me, your Head of House Professor Snape, or a Prefect. Now to bed." Artemis rose and their Head of House and followed Malfoy, the older kids heading towards the left staircase while the first years took the one in the right. The girls separating and going up a other set of steps to the right, Artemis and the other boys took the staircase on the left. 

Entering the open doorway, Artemis grinned happily when he spotted a familiar brown-white spotted owl perched on top of his bed. Moving away and absently noticing Malfoy calming the bed beside his own, he plops down on his own and begins petting Wynn's head.
