The castle could be seen in the distance. A beautiful view it was. Ariana couldn't take her eyes off it, it was gorgeous. The lights turned on in some of the rooms. She focused on hogwarts as she was getting out of the train, not realising she nearly bumped into someone.

"Watch where you're going." She heard someone say. "You new here? you're staring at that castle as if it was some masterpiece." The voice says again.

She looked at the boy towering infront of her.
He had grey eyes that had a sort of spark as he looked deeply at her. He was wearing a black suit, looking rather neat and clean, his hands veiny with about 6 silver rings on his fingers. He was tall, and as she was looking up at his face she noticed his hair. Platinum blonde hair. This couldn't possibly be the guy her brother and his friends were talking about could it? There surely must be another guy with this hair. It's not how she imagined him at all. She thought he'd be some dirty boy. But this one infront of her.. this one was rather handsome the exact opposite of what she would've thought.

"What are you looking at?" He said, eyeing her suspiciously. "You really must be new. I don't recall seeing you before."

She stood inside, infront of the big school doors.
Ariana was getting ready to be allowed in by professor mcgongall, who about 20 minutes before took the first years into the hall to get sorted into their houses.

In the great hall, the last first year had just been sorted into hufflepuff. There were claps around the whole room as the kid sat down.

"Now before we begin the feast, there is one more student who must be sorted into a house. She has come from durmstrang" Starts professor dumbledore. "Minerva you may call her in."

"Ariana Potter" mcgongall says in her loudest voice. So loud Ari heard her from behind the closed doors just as they were opening. It was her moment now. She walked down the long great hall looking everywhere for Harry, and as she did she could see him looking at her with a comforting grin on his face. Whispers were echoing the hall. "Ariana Potter?" People mumbled as she walked past them. Once again, as she was getting to the end of her walk, she met the blonde haired boys eyes.

"I didn't know potter had a sister." He says to the guys sitting around him.

"Come on now." Mcgongall says as Ariana got to the sorting hat. "I will now place this on your head and you will be sorted into your house."

She was nervous but somehow much more confident. The hat was placed on her head and started thinking out loud.

"Ahh, another potter I see." It says slightly startling her. "This will be difficult. Very Difficult. Plenty of courage, I see. Not a bad mind either. There's talent, oh yes – and a nice thirst to prove yourself, that's interesting.. So where shall I put you?.... I know.. SLYTHERIN!"

the whole hall started whispering. She got up from her chair and heard muffled voices in between the claps, "a potter? in slytherin?" She ignored those comments and went to sit at the slytherin table. She sat down next to a girl who was grinning at her.

"Hi I'm Jasmine. Jasmine greywood" said the girl. She had beautiful light brown hair reaching about the length of her elbows. Her hair seemed healthy and was slightly wavy. She had beautiful hazel green eyes and she was about Ariana's height or maybe a little bit taller. She seemed kind. She gave her a warm welcome to the house.

"Hi, I'm Ariana Potter" she replied.

"I know that" Jasmine laughed. "And feel free to call me jazz or a nickname I only have teachers and people I don't like calling me Jasmine" she said smiling at you.

"Oh ok" Ariana answered. It was a bold answer, "who's that boy over there? The one with the really blonde hair" she finds herself asking before even thinking.

"You mean draco? That's draco malfoy he's a bit rude to people he hates. He barely likes anyone if I'm being honest. He hates Harry Potter especially." Jasmine answers not even giving it much thought of why she asked. "So are you like Harry's sister?"

Ariana was looking at the boy. It all added up it was draco malfoy. But how could it be from what her brother described him as he would've been some dirty, messed up guy she thought. "Ari?"

"Yea?.. oh yes, yeah I am Harry's sister. I'm 12 minutes younger."

"So you're twins" it wasn't really a question it was more of a statement.

"Yes." she answers.

Jasmine gave Ariana a little tour of the castle.
Showed her where her lessons the next day would be and the parts she needed to know straight away.

"And this is our common room" she said as they both Entered the room. It was a darkish room, very spacious. A green wallpaper surrounding it all. It had 2 great, black couches in the middle right infront of the fireplace. 2 corridors were leading to the common rooms on the left and right side behind the fireplace. A beautiful chandelier was hanging from the ceiling at the very centre of the room.

"Come on I'll show you our dorm" she heard Jasmine whisper to her as she was admiring the room. It was a short walk to their dorm and as they entered Ariana was even more shocked at the room. It was quite large, with 4 poster beds all in their own little corner. It seemed like a cozy place to be in. It was warm and the deep green of the room made it beautiful. Ariana wasn't always a fan of the colour green but after seeing how her dorm and common room looked like she thought it just might be her new favourite colour.

"Do you want us to help you unpack?" Jasmine said with another girl standing next to her. "Oh yeah, this is Daphne greengrass by the way, she shares our dorm room. She's nice, she's the girl I was sitting with earlier at the table before snape called her over" Jasmine blurted out.

"Oh hi I'm Ariana" she said shaking the girls hand.
"And yes if you don't mind I would really need help with all of this."

"Yes of course we'll help" Daphne said as she started helping her already.
