Kat's POV:
We walked into Hogwarts. A fairly old woman in Emerald robes, with her hair in a tight bun walked up to us. "Welcome to Hogwarts. Now, in a few moments you will walk through theses doors and join your classmates. But before you do you will be sorted into your houses. They are Gryffindor,Hufflepuff,Ravenclaw,and Slytherin. Now while your here,your house will be like your family. Your triumphs will earn you points. Any rule breaking, and you will lose points. At the end of the year the house with the most points will earn you the house cup." *croaking* "TREVOR!" I'm assuming that that was Neville. He lunged forward and grabbed him. Everyone was giggling, but The lady in the front was anything but amused. "Sorry." He mumbled. "The sorting ceremony will begin momentarily." She walked out and through the double doors. "It's true then." The boy from Madame Malkin's shop said. " What they're saying on the train. Harry and Katillia Potter, have come to Hogwarts."he said slyly. There was a bunch of whispering going on among the students. I hated him and I didn't even know who he was. He held out his hand to Harry. " This is Goyle, that's Crabbe, and I'm Malfoy. Draco Malfoy." I heard Ron snort. "Think my names funny do you?" He sneered. "No need to ask yours do I. Red hair, hand me down robe. You must be a Weasley."he spat. " you will soon find out that some wizard in family's are better than others, don't want to go making friends with the wrong sorts. I can help you there." He held out his hand for us to shake. "I think we can tell the wrong sorts for ourselves thanks." I tapped him on the shoulder and he turned around. Once he did I punched hi in the nose. Right when I did McGonagall entered. Just my luck. "Potter detention with me on Friday." She said. She motioned the group to follow her inside. We walked up to the front. There was a hat on a stool. It opened it had holes for eyes and a mouth. It began to sing.Your top hats sleek and tall,
For I'm the Hogwarts Sorting Hat
And I can cap them all.
You might belong in Gryffindor,
Where dwell the brave of heart,
Their daring, nerve, and chivalry set Gryffindors apart;
You might belong in Hufflepuff
Where they are just and loyal,
Those patient Hufflepuffs are true and unafraid of toil;
Or yet in wise old Ravenclaw
If you've a ready mind,
Where those of wit and learning
Will always find their kind;
Or perhaps in Slytherin
You'll make your true friends,
Those cunning folk use any means
To achieve their ends.
So put me on! Don't be afraid!
And don't get in a flap!
You're in safe hands (though I have none)
For I'm a Thinking Cap!
Once it ended McGonagall looked up and gave us instructions, "Now when I call your name, you will sit on the stool and I will place the hat on your head and you will be sorted into your houses. Hermione Granger." The girl from the train took a deep breath and walked forward. "Mental that one. I'm tellin' you." Ron whispered to Harry. Ah right then." The hat spoke. "Mmmm. Right. Ok, GRYFFINDOR! It shouted. Hermione skipped over to the clapping Gryffindors. McGonagall looked back at the paper and read "Draco Malfoy." He walked up and sat down. Before the hat touched his head it said, "SLYTHERIN!" He smirked and strutted over to the Slytherin table. She looked back at the paper and said "Susan Bonns." She sat down and waited. "Mmmmm HUFFLEPUFF!!" She walked to the hufflepuff table. "Ronald Weasley." Ron looked like he was about to die. "Mmmmmmm, another Weasley Eh, I know just what to do with you.... GRYFFINDOR!!" Ron immediately relaxed, walked over and was greeted by who I assume are his brothers. "Katillia Potter." Everyone in the hall started murmuring to each other. I walked up and sat down. "Mmmmm, difficult, very difficult, you would do well in any of the houses,Mmmmmm. But in your head you would do the best in...." Every house leaned forward, wondering who would get me. "GRYFFINDOR!" The gryffindor table went ecstatic. I walked over and sat down next to Ron and waited for Harry. "Harry Potter." Harry walked forward to the stool and sat down. "Mmmmmm once again difficult, very difficult, plenty of courage I see. Not a bad mind either. Oh yes and a first to prove your self. But we're to put you?" I could tell that Harry was whispering not slytherin. "Not slytherin eh? BUT YOU COULD DO GREAT AND SLYTHERIN COULD HELP YOU ON YOUR WAY TO GREATNESS. It's all here in your head. No? Well if you're sure better be........GRYFFINDOR!!" It shouted. I clapped and stood up as Harry made his way over. Then the headmaster, a man with a VERY long beard, and crescent glasses, stood up and said a whole speech but I zoned out and didn't hear a thing. I only heard "Filch......thirdfloor.......painful death.....and I would like to congratulate Mrs. Potter for getting the earliest detention ever received at Hogwarts!"Then he waved his hand and a feast appeared in front of our eyes. I knew that I was gonna like it here.
A/N: WOW! I didn't think I would make it this far. I usually start a story and then 5 chapters later I quit. But I promise that I'm gonna keep writing cause in my opinion I think you guys like this book. Anyways, Goodbye Wattpadians!
