You are the new Headmaster or Headmistress of Hogwarts. The students are on their way, and the rest of the staff is waiting in their appropriate places. You go to retrieve the Sorting Hat, only to find that it is missing.

The staff is informed, and a search of the school is not revealing the hat [it is not on the school grounds at all, but in the mouth of a hungry dog wandering the countryside. Who knows how it got there]. The students are filing into the castle.

What do you do?

I take off my hat and cut a slit through it to look like a mouth. Then I give it to the deputy headmaster/headmistress to put on the head of every first year. I then proceed to hide behind a column and shout out houses depending on what house they look like. "Hey, she seems Gryff-ish. GRYFFINDOR!" The only students that will know the difference are the ones who have already been sorted, and they don't matter in the Sorting Ceremony anyway. :P

Have Minerva transform into a cat, lure the dog over to me and grab the hat. Then promptly have an alarm system put in place for hat.

Or maybe I'd just say "Accio Sorting hat!"

abolish the sorting system, and mix everyone up. The houses cause separation anyway.

I bet the Sorting Hat called the dog to take him away :X Just SO the sorting system would be gone.

Lure the dog into an area far from any inhabitants and Avada Kedavra the dog. Stupid thing tore my hat and got it all dirty and slimy. I would be a horribly corrupt Headmistress especially since I would work for Voldie too lol

I laugh.

Then I get a troll. "Hey kids, you know what all the upper years told you on the train? It's true. Fight!"

But the troll would probably just be a Golem. Complete with 'mt on its forehead. Anyone who notices and tries to erase the aleph goes to Ravenclaw automatically; everyone else just picks slips of paper out some other hat with a House written on it.

Yup, new sorting hat. Because I'm convinced the real one could've gotten back if it wanted to; no second chances to abandon me, damn hat!

Sirius (yes, he's not dead in my world) must have a good reason to steal the sorting hat!!! Hmm... kidnap Lupin and ask Sirius to exchange the sorting hat for his lover friend.
