The favourite Gryffindor

Hogwarts

"First years this way" a giant man with a long beard shouted. Elizabeth turned around and was stunned to see a man at least the size of a tree gathering first years.

Elizabeth and Neville walked over to the tall man and waited for the rest of the first years to gather around. Once they all did they where told they where taken the boats so the castle.

Elizabeth caught a boat with Neville and two other boys she hadn't seen before. One was a short boy with Sandy coloured hair, Pale skin and a Irish accent while the other boy was a tall English boy, with dark coloured skin and black hair.

"Hi I'm Elizabeth Hanna and this is Neville long bottom it's nice to meet you both" the young girl said with a smile.

"Seamus Finnigan it's good to meet you both" the Irish boy said extending his hand for Elizabeth and Neville to shake.

"I'm Dean, Dean Thomas it's good to meet you"  the English boy said after Seamus copying his actions.

"Woah is that the castle?" Elizabeth heard someone say from the other boat, Elizabeth turned around and cooed as she saw the gorgeous castle that wasn't to far away from her.

                                           ****

Hagrid raised a gigantic fist and knocked three times on the castle door.
The door swung open at once. A tall, black-haired witch in emerald-green robes stood there.

"Here they are" said Hagrid to the back haired witch and left again.

The witch lead the newly first years into the entrance hall. The Entrance Hal was huge a lot bigger then Elizabeth had imaged it would look like, by the look on everyone else's face they where thinking the same thing.

The tall witch lead everyone through the hall and over to a huge double door where she could hear Muffle voices.

"Welcome to Hogwarts I am Professor McGonagall head of Gryffindor. The start-of-term banquet will begin shortly, but before you take your seats in the Great Hall, you will be sorted into your houses"

Elizabeth suddenly got really nervous not because if she was in Slytherin she'd be considered ''bad'' personally Elizabeth didn't believe that the whole of Slytherin house where bad, she was scared she wouldn't be put in the same house as Neville on the train he and Elizabeth grew close and she sincerely wanted to be in the same house as him.

"The four houses are Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, and Slytherin. Each house has its own noble history and each has produced outstanding witches and wizards" the Professor said calmly.

"While you are at Hogwarts, your triumphs will earn your house points, while any rulebreaking will lose house points. At the end of the year, the house with the most points is awarded the house cup, a great honor. I hope each of you will be a credit to whichever house becomes yours" The tall witch went on to say

This only made Elizabeth more anxious.

"The Sorting Ceremony will take place in a few minutes in front of the rest of the school. I suggest you all smarten yourselves up as much as you can while you are waiting. McGonagall finished and walked into the great hall.

Elizabeth fixed her black tie which would in moments turn into the colour of her house, she then put her fingers through her hair trying to make sure it looked okay.

"How do I look?" Elizabeth asked the 3 boys she had been standing with, Neville, Dean and Seamus.

"Like your ready to take on the world" Seamus simply nodded

"You look fine liz" Dean continued

"Don't worry about it Lizzie you look pretty" Neville said going a little red.

Before Elizabeth could say anything back to the three boys she was pushed over by a platinum blood haired boy.

"So it's true then saint. Potter has came to. Hogwarts" the boy who had pushed her stalked over to Harry.

Elizabeth picked her self up and walked over to the boy and Harry and tapped on the boys shoulder.

"What?" The boy Said turning around to face Elizabeth.

"I'd just like to Inform you if you push me again it may just be the last thing you do I am not a doll you get to throw around" Elizabeth said in a clam down while everyone stared at her in shock.

"How dare you speak to me like that you filthy little mud-" the boy began but was cut off

Elizabeth slapped him hard on the side of his face "Excuse you that's no language to be using wether your a Muggle, pure blood or half blood it dose not determine your ability's nor dose it have anything to do with you as a person but clearly if you can do willingly use that word your a horrible person, now if you don't mind leaving my friends alone I'd be the most grateful" Elizabeth calmly continued ignoring the gasps from everyone

"My father will be hearing about this" was all the boy could manage to say before walking away.

"That was brilliant" Harry said holding back a laugh.

"Why thank you" Elizabeth said giving a bow.

Just then McGonagall came back through "we are ready for you now.

Everyone got into pairs and walked into the great hall while admiring the celling which was enchanted to look like the night sky.

Elizabeth decided to walk in with Hermione "it's not real you know it's been be bewitched" Hermione said in a did you know sorta tone.

"You read about it in Hogwarts a history me two" Elizabeth finished smiling at Hermione

Elizabeth had a feeling her and Hermione would be really good friends.

"When I call your name, you will put on the hat and sit on the stool to be sorted, Hanna abbot"

"Hufflepuff" the hat yelled as the young blond girl got up off the stool and walked over to the Hufflepuff table.

"Hermione granger"

"Good luck" Elizabeth wished Hermione

"Gryffindor" the hat yelled which seemed to please Hermione.

"Ronald Weasley"

"Ahh another Weasley" the hat began "I know just where to put you... Gryffindor!"

Elizabeth smiled at Ron as he went to sit down

"Elizabeth Hanna"

Elizabeth slowly walked over to the stool and sat down.

"Well you are rather hard aren't you... yes I can hear you"

"What how did you know-"

"I know a lot of things my dear... you'd do rather well in all the houses but there's one that stands out more then the others" the hat said so only Elizabeth could hear.

"Gryffindor" the hat shouted.
