Chapter 1. A friend whose name is Obito
December 10, 2023 at 6:39 AM
The next academic year. For some, he will be the first. Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry is pleased to welcome both beginners and experienced wizards to its walls.
Today Kakashi Hatake will become one of the students of this wonderful school. He had bought the necessary supplies a long time ago and was already sitting on the train, waiting for departure. From the window, he saw schoolchildren saying goodbye to their parents, and they kissed their children and wished them a good journey.
The train started moving. Several guys were leaning out of the windows and waving to those who remained on the platform. Kakashi saw that they were waving at him too.
Father. He has not left yet, although he was urgently called to work. He continued to stand and wave at him.
Kakashi smiled and waved back. A few minutes later, the train station was far behind.
There was a timid knock on the door. A dark-haired guy with a backpack over his shoulder looked into the compartment.
- I'm sorry, do you mind if I keep you company? - The other carriages are already occupied.
- No, I don't mind.
- Thank you, - the guy smiled and sat down opposite.
After a short silence, he asked again:
- Are you worried before the distribution?
- What's there to be afraid of?
- Well, maybe you don't want to go to some faculty... Or others don't want you to get there... You never know what happens.
Kakashi shrugged his shoulders.
- To be honest, I don't care.
- Okay, whatever you say. By the way, my name is Obito, Obito Uchiha.
- I'm Kakashi. Kakashi Hatake.
Obito smiled.
- Nice to meet you, Kakashi.
- Likewise.
- What do you think, how is it at Hogwarts?
- It must be cool.
- I would like to come as soon as possible... They say there is a village called Hogsmeade near the castle. When we're in our third year, we'll be allowed to go there too! In the meantime, we can explore the castle. There are even ghosts there. Cool, right?
- Yeah.
- And also...
So they chatted until they arrived. They were met and taken to the castle. And now they are already standing in front of huge doors, behind which there is a Large hall.
- The distribution will begin now. Please don't worry. And now, follow me.
The boys followed the sorceress.
- So, let's start the distribution, - said the director, and the audience applauded.
- Maito Guy.
The boy walked over and sat down on a stool. They put a hat on his head, which was clearly more than a hundred years old.
- Hmm... I see courage.. courage... But you clearly have more perseverance and hard work. Hufflepuff!
The guys in yellow ties applauded.
- Next one. Rin Nohara.
The girl went to the hat.
- Kindness... Responsiveness... I think you're going the same way as the previous one... Hufflepuff!
The table applauded again.
- Kakashi Hatake.
Obito looked at his friend. Kakashi sat down on a stool.
- Hmm... You're pretty smart, sensible. I think so... Ravenclaw!
This time, the guys in blue ties applauded.
- Obito Uchiha.
Swallowing, Obito walked over to the hat. As soon as she touched his head, she began to reason:
- Uchiha, then. Clearly, clearly... But you're not like the others. You don't qualify for Slytherin. And it's a long way to Ravenclaw.
A chuckle rippled through the room.
- You are not cunning, but you are quite brave. You're willing to sacrifice yourself for others... In that case... Gryffindor!
The guys in red ties applauded. Obito looked at Kakashi. He smiled. He smiled too and went to his desk.
When everyone was assigned to the faculties, the hat was taken away, and all sorts of goodies appeared on the tables.
When the feast was over, the children were taken to their rooms. The prefects had to show the freshmen where their faculty's bedroom was located.
While the crowd was breaking down the doors, Obito approached Kakashi.
- The castle is really cool. It's a pity that we are in different faculties. But it won't interfere with our friendship, right?
- Really,- Kakashi smiled.
Obito smiled too.
- Thanks. Then, I'll see you in class tomorrow!
Gryffindor and Ravenclaw split up, and each of them headed for his tower.
Kakashi changed his clothes and lay down on the bed. Tomorrow must be a difficult day. But he's not alone. Now he has a friend named Obito.
