Emily's bags are packed with her books, wand, robes, and her pet cat. The whole summer she studied her books so she would top every class, like she did in the Muggle world. The stairs creaked as she carried her supplies down to her family. Her whole family smiles, they were all wizards. Emily tied her auburn hair into a low pong tail and set out for her Muggle car. Her family cheered as she stepped into the car.
"Way to go!"
"Make us proud!" Her parents said.
At the train station, her parents told Emily how to get to platform 9 3/4. She pushed her trolley trough the barrier. She was surrounded by young and old wizards. Her eyes spotted a train labeled "Hogwarts Express". She hurried on and sat in a compartment. A young white blonde boy walked by. He caught her eye and she caught his. His walking slowed and he turned around.
"Hello. I'm Draco Malfoy." He waved slightly.
"I'm Emily." Her checks were as red as the old train. She slowly waved as he slowly walked away. Two young blonde girls and a brunette girl sat next to Emily.
"I'm Abby!" One blonde said as she waves happily.
"I'm Brigid!" Said the other blonde.
"I'm Hannah!" Said the brunette.
"I'm Emily." Emily smiled at the three girls, knowing they would be great friends. The four girls talked about everything from chickens to boys.
"This one boy caught my eye." Emily shyly spoke, "He had blonde hair."
"Oh! You mean Draco!" Brigid said excitedly.
"I ship it!" Hannah and Abby chimed.
The train slowly pulled into the station and all the first years excitedly emerged.
"First years this way!" A big man known as Hagrid said. The four girls held hands as they climbed into a boat crossing the lake.
"What house do you want to be in?" Emily asked.
"GRYFFINDOR!" Exclaimed Brigid.
"I don't know, Ravenclaw maybe." Said Abby.
"I want anything!" Said Hannah smiling as she looked into the lake.
---------------
The first years glided into the castle, some nervous some excited. An old hat sat on a bench. Everyone was talking as the hat broke into song. As the song ended, young wizards cheered. The sorting began.
The first one called up was Abby. The hat exclaimed "RAVENCLAW!" Abby happily walked to the awaiting group of Ravenclaws. Then came Hannah.
"HUFFLEPUFF!" The hat yelled. Hannah gladly walked over to the Hufflepuff table where senior Hufflepuff's high fives her. Next came Brigid.
"GRYFFINDOR!" The hat yelled as Brigid squealed with excitement. Lastly, came Emily.
"SYTHERIN!" The hat announced. Emily slowly approached the Sytherins and soon smiled when she say Draco sitting at the table as well.
After sorting was the great feast. The four girls, separated, ate and chatted with their peers in their houses. When the fest was over they were called to their dorms. Emily walked to the Sthyerin common room and smiled.
This was going to be a great year.
