Cassiopeia stood on the platform nervously holding onto the coat of her father. She was about to start her first year at Hogwarts and she was extremly frightened.

What if she couldn't find any friends? What if nobody liked her? What if-

Her train of thoughts was cut off by her mother, who held a soft yet stern expression on her flawless face.
"Peia you really need to go on the train now or else you will miss it honey" with that Cassiopeia reluctantly let go of her father's coat and turned to face her parents.

"Stop stressing peia you will have a great time there." reassured her father.

Cassiopeia took a deep breath before hugging her parents and finally bidding them goodbye. But not before promising to write to her father every day.

As she heard the hissing of the train indicating that it was about to take off she began to stress and started to run in the direction of the train in hopes to not miss it. While doing that she practically ran over a young girl.

"ow bloody hell what's got you in such a hurry?" inquired the blonde.
What did she mean? The train was literally about to take off. Had she not noticed? She seemed like she was absolutely clueless. While helping her up she examined the girl. Her beautiful straight blonde hair was cut to about shoulder length and her freckles perfectly adorned her pale face.

"Oh uhm I'm so sorry the trains about to take off and well I need to get on there cause I'm about to start my first year at Hogwarts". Cassiopeia stated proudly.

"You're starting your first year too? Cool, I'm Marlene. Marlene Mckinnon". The hiss of the train could be heard again.

"Nice to meet you Marlene but we're about to miss our train let's go"with that the two took off in the direction of the train and luckily made it in time.
Inside the two made their way to find themselves a compartment. But every compartment seemed to be occupied.

Giving up on finding an empty compartment Cassiopeia knocked on a nearby compartment door in hopes to find somebody they could share a compartment with. As she opened the door she was met with four boys.
"Hey would you mind us sitting with you? Every where else is fully occupied." asked Cassiopeia hoping they wouldn't have anything against it.

"Sure we have enough space" said the boy with glasses. "I'm James by the way. That's Sirius" he pointed to the boy at his right who had short yet rather unruly dark hair. Sirius winked at the two as James moved on.
"that's remus" remus sat at the left of Cassiopeia and at the mention of his name looked up briefly from his book that he had his nose buried in to lightly smile at Cassiopeia and Marlene before going back to his book . Cassiopeia examined his face.
It was littered in scars and there were dark bags under his eyes that indicated that he hadn't slept very well in a longer time.
"and that's Peter". James finished.
As the attention of the compartment shifted to Peter his cheeks blushed a red color.

"Hi I'm Marlene and this is...uh oh you forgot to tell me your name". noticed Marlene.

"Oh sorry I'm Cassiopeia nice to meet you all"

As Hogwarts came nearer and nearer there previous conversations began to die down.
Finally when everyone was quiet and Cassiopeia was just looking out of the window James spoke up.
"What house do you think you will be sorted in?"
That made Cassiopeia stop. What house would she be sorted into? She never really thought about that. Her mother was a Ravenclaw and her father a Gryffindor so in what house would she be placed into?
She was brought out of her thoughts as James spoke up yet again. "I'm gonna be in Gryffindor like my parents I hope you all will be too".
The rest of the train ride was rather quiet and Cassiopeia spent her time thinking of which house she will be placed in.

Finally entering the halls of the mighty Hogwarts an elder woman welcomes everyone. She explained a few things but Cassiopeia was too busy admiring the beauty of Hogwarts.

As they were finally led to the main hall a hat came in sight of the young witch.
Finally the headmaster Professor Dumbledore and the stern looking woman which she had learned was named Professor Mcgonagall started to read the names of the children. One by one sat on the chair in the middle of the hall and was placed in a house by the speaking hat.

"Sirius black!"
and with that Sirius swiftly made his way to professor Mcgonagall and professor Dumbledore. A few moments later the hat called
"Gryffindor!"
The red and yellow table began cheering loudly and Sirius made his way over to sit at the table. Although at first he looked a bit unsure.

When finally Cassiopeia's name was called she nervously made her way over and when the hat was placed on her head she became unsure what to think.

"Ah a yeah a difficult choice.Where do I put you let's see. What about... Gryffindor!"
as the name of the house was called the whole table erupted in cheers and Cassiopeia made her way over she sat next to a red head who she had seen before.

"Hi I'm Lily Evans"

"Hey my name is Cassiopeia McMillan"

After the feast the students were shown to theair dorms and Cassiopeia found out that she was sharing a dorm with Marlene, Lily and two other girls named Alice Forsecue and Mary Mcdonald.
Maybe her father was right and she would have a great time.
