"Welcome to Hogwarts, first years. Please follow Hagrid into the great hall as I will return shortly. Wait patiently," Professor McGonagall says walking out of the hallway. I feel Draco grab my arm, assuring me everything was going to be ok. I look at him as we walk into the great hall. Draco catches me looking at him and fakes a smile. I stumble and fall against him as I tripped over a tall red head with freckles. Draco nudges me with his shoulder to whack the red head, but by that time I was about to whack him, I was pulled next to Draco.  And we lined up to be sorted. Professor McGonagall came back with a horridly unkempt hat that had been sowed together to keep from falling apart. Then, she took out a scroll and read the names off. Draco turned into a Slytherin as well as Crabbe and Goyle and Pansy Parkinson. This went on until Harry Potter and I were the last ones in the line.

"Potter, Harry - Gryffindor!!" The hat yelled. The hall erupted in cheers. The loudest was of course, Gryffindor. Then I was called.

"Potter, Yn!"

"Is there really another Potter?" And "Could it be? There really is another Potter?" "I bet she'll get Gryffindor as well as her brother" rang out in the hall. Whispers everywhere and heads straining to look at me. The closest ones said, "They do look alike except she has her mother's face and her father's black hair. Who knew he had a sister? I wonder why she was never mentioned?" As I walked from the back of that hall to the front. I get to the stool and the hat dropped over my eyes.

"Aye, both a Potter and a Riddle. You had a bit of Tom cursed into you. I wonder how it all turns out. Well, the house I'd make you be is Gryffindor to join your brother, BUT I can sense you'd hate it there. So therefore I'll make you a SLYTHERIN!" The hat rudely shouts in my ear. I fall off the stool with gratitude. I'm in my father's house! I pull the musty hat off and sit next to Draco who stood up and gave me a huge hug in congratulations. Then Albus Dumbledore stood up and gave us the shortest speech in the world. It was only four words long. I look over to Harry, my brother, and feel hurt that he didn't care to even look up at his own sister. Draco must've seen me looking at Harry because he nudged my shoulder and said, "Never mind your brother. He probably doesn't care. You're a Slytherin so act like you are happy. Please for your sake. You'll love Slytherin," he says trying to cheer me up.

"I kmow. I just-oh look the food!" I say then helping myself to the grand feast. Draco knows I love food and love cooking so he knew the food'll cheer me up. When the feast was over we went to our houses. The Slytherin common room was brightly lit with green candles and green fires.

"Welcome to the Slytherin common room. No one is allowed to go out of it unless told to after 10:00 pm. But can remain in the common room for as long as they want. Every student is expected to got to class every morning so remember that," the head boy announces. There was a third staircase leading to the house head's private chambers. But I normally would walk passed it because it's hidden behind the banner of the Hogwarts crest. I was going to head up the stairs but am stopped.

"Your father left a room to you in the co-ed dorm. You won't be needing the other room," the head boy said then added, "follow me." I follow him to a door reading:

'Yn P. Riddle
Draco Malfoy'

"Wait! I'm rooming with Draco?!?" I ask.

"It appears to be that way," the head boy said. "I'll leave you to get comfortable with your new roommate." As the head boy walked away, leaving me staring at the door.
