<Lucy's P.O.V>
Today was the first day of school. Great. Did I mention I'm a wizard? Yep that's right. But not like the cartoons with like stars on their hats and waving their scepter around like they're having a seizure.
I'm talking about like normal people that just have wands. And can like cast spells and stuff. Yay. Anyway, yeah, new school, a wizard school, my second one so far, this year. So, I would be a bit late, but only like a month late. Yeah, that's how long it takes me to get kicked out of school. The new school I'm going to is called Hogwarts.
So, onto appearances and like life stories and crap because if I didn't say all that shit then everyone would be all confuzzled. I have dark brown curly hair almost down to my waist, brown almost black eyes, dip dyed red tips in my hair. I guess one would consider me as "bad girl" or "rebel" or "goth", yeah I've heard it all because I mostly dress in dark colors but honestly, what do these people want from me?! To wear yellow and look like the fucking sun?! Moving on, I was adopted at age 5. I have muggle parents who adopted me but I'm a pure blood.
Right now, I'm packing up and getting ready to go. Headmaster Dumbledore allowed someone from the ministry of magic to take me to Hogwarts. "Lucy! Come and meet Mr.Weasley, he's here to take you to your school." My adoptive mother called me. I sighed and looked in the mirror. This was it. I was going to stay in this school. I swept my hair to the side, which I only really do when I'm nervous, and walked out to meet Mr.Weasley.
"Ah! Hello Ms. Brooks. Delightful to meet you." Mr Weasley said with a friendly smile on his face. He was the one with the flaming red hair. Mr. Weasley had freckles in his face, a friendly smile, and wrinkles around his eyes that told me he smiled a lot. "You too." I said. "Well we should be going, we have to get you there and get you sorted." He said holding out his arm."Sorted?" I asked confused."Yes dear, there are four houses, Gryffindore for the brave, Hufflepuff for the loyal, Slytherin for the cunning, and Ravenclaw for the brave." "Oh, well good bye mom, dad." I said, nodding at my parents.
My mom sniffled and rushed forward to hug me. We had bonded more than I had with my father. She was basically a real mom to me anyway. "Goodbye, please be good." She pleaded looking at me with her innocent chocolate brown eyes into my icy piercing blue eyes. "It's okay Amanda." My father said patting his wife on the shoulder. He hugged me and wished me well and I put my hand onto Mr.Weasleys still extended arm, his skin warm underneath my ice cold skin. And before you ask, no I'm not a vampire from twilight.
We apparated away and I was standing directly in front of a castle. This was it. Hogwarts. Wow. Big.
We walked to a gate and Mr.Weasley pulled out his wand and muttered a spell I didn't recognize. I checked my muggle watch, it read 7:12. "We have to hurry, all of the students are at breakfast, and it gets over at 7:45."
"Okay." I said not really knowing what was going on. Dammit Lucy don't TFIOS this shit. We were both silent as we walked inside the beautiful castle. As we walked to two double doors which I guess led to the meal area, in front of the doors stood a very tall, frail, lady in emerald green robes with a stern look on her face. "Lucy this is Professor McGonagol." Mr Weasley said. I think I'll call this lady Micky G xD.
"Ah. Ms.Brooks, we have been expecting you, we must hurry breakfast is over in about 10 minutes and we don't know how long it will take to sort you. We walked through the halls with everyone looking at me. Probably cause I wasn't wearing their pretty little uniforms but I was wearing black ripped skinny jeans, converse, and an All Time Low t-shirt. I'm not a complete air head when it comes to the muggle world okay, especially good bands.

   Most people probably would have blushed and looked down, but I held my head high with a bored look on my face. I walked past the what I guess was the Gryffindor table because there was a banner with a lion on it, and like lions for brave? Yeah. By the way, Mr. Weasley had left. My eyes scanned the other tables. I didn't know which table were the puffs or the smart ones but I knew what table Slytherin was, obviously because it had a snake on it and like they slither. Yeah. I'm so smart.
I followed Micky G up to a stool with a worn, brown looking hat on it. "Students, Teachers, this is our new student, Lucille Brooks." Micky said to everyone sitting at the tables. I frowned. "Its Lucy." I said. She glared at me. Then she gestured for me to sit on the stool as she moved the hat. I sat on the stool very confused about what was happening when Micky G outrage hat on my head. I glanced around the room feeling very awkward about this. But I didn't blush. I never blush.
"Hmm. Very smart mind, I sense. Doesn't pay attention much in classes...or anything, but is clever in her own way. Very loyal, clever, brave, and cunning but where to put you." A voice purred in my ear. I stiffened but realized it was the hat. I did not want to be a puff. No way in hell. No offense but I just don't seem to fit it. And I seriously doubt the Ravens would want me, I don't even pay attention in classes. I kinda wanted Slytherin, it would be pretty cool and my favorite color is silver. Yes, silver is a color. Gryffindor wasn't bad but I'm probably more of a badass Slytherin. "Aahh. You want Slytherin slightly more than Gryffindor and don't really care for the other two." I laughed nervously as the Ravens and the puffs crossed their arms and turned to glare at me.
"Hmmm. Very tough decision. But you have a very important destiny in the house of the lion. Better be GRYFFINDOR!!" The sorting hat yelled. Before I could say anything, the hat was off my head and I was being pushed towards the Gryffindor table who were applauding for me.

Hi! This is a new story I'm working on and hopefully it works out and I can make the plot progress because before when my other story only had like five chapters I had attempted two other stories and I couldn't make the plot progress. But this book seems like it could turn into a great series. I'm gonna leave now before I crush my phone and throw it out the window because I had written a lot before this and I was highlighting it to make it bold and in italics and I accidentally pressed the delete button and it deleted my previous work. So yeah, I'm pretty fucking pissed off at my phone's tiny ass keyboard. K I'm gonna leave before I start ranting. Bye bye.
