Dumbledore smiled and raised his hands for silence again. "It's now time for the House Cup" he said smiling. "I understand that the Houses stand at these points; in fourth place is Gryffindor with 312 points, in third place is Hufflepuff with 352 points, in second place is Ravenclaw with 426 point, and in first place is Slytherin with 472 points!" the Slytherin table erupted into cheers for the second time that night, while the other houses looked on in disappointment. "Yes, Yes well done Slytherin" Dumbledore said smiling. "However there has been some events that must be taken into account" the hall went quiet, Harry and Hermione shared glances, they had an idea of where this was going. "I am talking about the fact that last night a group of boys showed the true bravery that their house is known for. Last night these boys defended our school as our own Professor Quirrell tried to steal a magical artifact from under our noses, unfortunately the Professor had hoped to bring back The Dark Lord Voldemort" there were gasps of terror from the students, Harry rolled his eyes at his friends as a few girls shrieked in fear.
