Oh...
whaaa? She'd been chosen? Practically bouncing up out of her seat, Anna happily headed to the front of the classroom and grabbed a piece of chalk. Ohhh, Gryffindor was about the same length as Greingoth...a little longer even. Figuring she better get started, Anna raised the chalk to the board and began calculating:
G + R + Y + F + F + I + N + D + O + R
7 + 9 + 7 + 6 + 6 + 9 + 5 + 4 + 6 + 9 = 68
6 + 8 = 14
1 = 4 = 5
"Okay, I've arrived at five for Godric Gryffindor's family name, Professor Shackleton. Sixty-eight...reduces to fourteen...and that reduces to five," Anna said, rereading her work.
