I opened the door and saw Filtch talking to a tall man with silver hair and beard, he had a long and crooked nose that looked as if it had been broken at least twice. They noticed me open the door.

"Hello. I'm Headmaster Dumbledore" says the old man

"Sorry I'm late the um staircases moved" not sure what to say so there's a moment of silence until Dumbledore says "Filtch your services are no longer needed" Filtch walks out and it's just me and Dumbledore

"There are 4 houses at Hogwarts Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, and Slytherin" I interrupt him to say "I know I read Hogwarts: A History, I-I also know the Sorting Hat determines what house you belong in" I say this as fast as I can so I don't seem disrespectful but he just smiles

"Ah yes Hogwarts: A History what an interesting read indeed, I asked you to come here so you can be sorted privately" he walks over to a shelf and takes down a brown and wrinkly hat from the shelf

"This is the sorting hat now sit down" he says pointing to a stool I do as I'm told and sit on the stool then he puts the hat on my head

"What a brilliant mind you have, very hard working. I see you're trying to prove yourself, well you'd be great in Hufflepuff, but oh maybe Slytherin would be a good fit for you, OH! I know where to put you....GRYFFINDOR" screams the Sorting Hat and I swear from the corner of my eye I can see Dumbledore smiling as if he had planned this all along

"Now that you've been sorted you may go to your common room, Professor McGonagall is head of Gryffindor House, and she will take you to the Gryffindor Common Room" I left Dumbledores office and saw a tall women with black hair in a tight bun

"I'm Professor McGonagall Head of Gryffindor House and your Transfiguration teacher"

"I'm Mikayla, the hat sorted me into Gryffindor" I say even though it's kind of obvious (I mean why else would she be here)

"Follow me" she says in a stern but kind matter.

I follow her when we stops in front of a portrait of a fat lady. The portrait speaks and asks "password?"

"Every House has a Common Room and they all have passwords, our Common Room password is Balderdash" as the word leaves her mouth the portrait swings open and there a circular room full of squashy armchairs, with a large fireplace, and the walls are decorated with scarlet tapestries

"Wow, it's amazing " is an understatement the room looked incredible word can't describe how cool this room is.

"The girls dormitory is up that staircase and you will see that all your things have been taken care of" I nod

"Oh I almost forgot, you will go to the door that says 4th years" at this point I'm halfway up the stairs. I see the door and I open it everyone's asleep except a girl with bushy brown hair who appears to be reading.
