The day had finally come, one many waited years for. Phoebe Black stood on platform 9/34 waiting to board the hogwarts express. "Hey, now listen you child, don't talk to mudbloods, half-breeds or blood traitors understand". Walburga Black screeched into her granddaughters ear.
Phoebe just nodded her head scared of how her voice would sound. She looked around at the mothers and fathers that were now starting to say goodbye to their children, she wished for that, wished that her parents could be the one to seen her off.
"Now go, I expect you to be a slytherin understood, don't disappoint this household, you must get O's in all of your classes. And I'll see you this summer." whispered Walburga, she couldn't let the heir of the noble and most ancient house of black disappoint her.
The final chime to the train came and Phoebe scurried off. She hurried straight into the bathroom to change from the awful black dress her grandmother made her wear. She changed into some muggle clothes she got when she snuck into London that summer. They were a pair of pale navy shorts, that were way to big on her but fit on the waist. A long sleeve black top to keep her warm for the long train ride. Over the top she put a basic white top. Along with that, she had a worn out pair of black converse she found on her way back to the house.
When she left in a joyful and happy mood she started looking for a compartment. Hopeful to find some friends. As she was walking she accidentally bumped into someone, before she could apologise she received a dirty look from someone who was twice her height. Possibly a 6th year. Confuse that she did something wrong she kept walking trying not to let that falter her mood.
Walking all the way down the corridor looking left and right every compartment was full to the brim. She was too late, she thought, now all the seats were gone. Maybe she didn't look hard enough. It's okay she told her self, she could still make friends later at the feast.
As she was unable to find a seat, she walked back into the luggage compartment. She walked over to her own truck and sat crossed legged. It may have taken a big dip to her mood, however she tried to stay optimistic and cheerful. She couldn't ruin someone else's day, even if that meant ruining her own.
Phoebe fell asleep. However, after many hours was jolted awake when someone came in. It must have been time to change, hopping off of her trunk Phoebe took out her uniform. It consisted of a pair of black tights, a long skirt, a white school shirt, a tie and a black robe. Not liking how the tights felt, Phoebe chucked them back into her trunk and went to go change.
Soon they arrived at Hogwarts.
***********
As the first years walked through the great hall, all eyes turned to watch. "When I call your name, you can come up onto the stool, the sorting hall will be place on your head. You will then join your respected houses." Announced Minerva Mcgonagall.
"Abbot, Hannah" A few minutes later the sorting hat announced its final decision. "HUFFLEPUFF!"
A table of the far left erupted into cheers. "Andy, Tory" This decision was almost instant. "RAVENCLAW!" A table on the right started clapping.
"Black, Phoebe" The hall turned silent before breaking out into whispers, a Black at Hogwarts? Phoebe joyfully skipped up to the stool and waited for the hat to start talking. Mhm yess another Black but where to put you. Ravenclaw could be good as you're naturally creative, however, you lack the intelligence. Slytherin wouldn't work either, as you can be determined and ambitious. Although you wouldn't do anything to get your way.Ah now just two left. You are very joyful and often put others feelings and emotions before your own. You could also fit into Gryffindor but that's not what your heart desires. After 6 minutes of the hat having an inner discussion with its self it finally called out: "better be HUFFLEPUFF!" Happily Phoebe skipped over to the yellow and black table ignoring anyone who looked at her strange.
Although she was scared of what punishment she may receive she tended not to show. Phoebe did feel happy and joyful to be at Hogwarts, the one place she heard all about from her parent for 4 years. At the back of her mind she was utterly terrified, but it's happened now she might as well enjoy it while it lasts.
Phoebe didn't know however that is similar to how both her parent felt when they were sorted into ravenclaw and slytherin many years ago.
**************
