Tap the song above when you see this *
We arrived at a castle that I couldn't stop staring at it, it was so huge. The boats stopped at the castle and we piled out and followed Hagrid inside. He told us go up the stairs where we would meet professor Mcgonagall. As we neared the top I saw the professor. She was a tall old lady dressed in a long silk green robe and a hat of the same color stood on her head. We stopped at the top and she began speaking. "Welcome to Hogwarts in a few moments you will pass through these doors and join your classmates, but before you do you will first be sorted into your houses."
"They are Ravenclaw, Hufflepuff, Gryffindor, and Slytherin, now while you're here your house will be like your family your triumphs will earn you points any rule breaking and you will lose points." Suddenly Neville yelled out "Trevor!" He then picked up a toad that was near the professor. "The sorting ceremony will begin momentarily." Professor Mcgonagall said she then left us alone for a while. "Its true then what they're saying on the train Harry Potter and Nemissia Knight have come to Hogwarts." Whispers started spreading as a boy with white blondish hair came up to me and Harry. "This is Crabbe and Goyle and I'm Malfoy, Draco Malfoy." We heard Ron laugh and I tapped him to stop it. "Think my name is funny don't you, I doubt I need to ask you yours, red hair and a hamy downed robe you must be a Wesley." He then turned back to me and Harry. "You'll soon find some wizard families are better than others you don't want to go hanging around with the wrong sort, I can help you there." He stuck his hand out to Harry and me I gave him an evil glare for insulting my friend. "I think I can tell the wrong sort for myself thanks." said Harry Draco then turned to me. "Don't think I'll be giving up on you Nemissia you'll change your mind about me one day and who knows maybe you'll be my girlfriend." I felt so embarrassed he was hitting on me in front of everyone. "Flattery won't work on me, buzz off." I said professor Mcgonagall then came back and ushered Draco back to his friends. "They're ready for you now follow me." We did as she said went into a room full of tables that went to the end of the walls. I looked up and saw the ceiling and saw the night sky and candles hanging in the air it was amazing. Hermione was going about how the ceiling being bewitched to look like the night sky. She just had to take the fun out of everything didn't she. "Wait along here please." We all stopped at some more stairs that lead to some students standing on the steps looking like they were going to perform. Behind them was a table with all the teachers. The one in the biggest chair stood up and made a couple anouncmeants to all of first years. "I would like to say a few words first I welcome you to Hogwarts, second please note that the dark forest is forbidden to all students, no magic is to be used between the classes and the corridors, and last our caretaker Mr Filch has asked me to remind you that the third floor corridor is out bounds to anyone who does not wish to suffer a most painful death." I swore to myself that would not go anywhere near that corridor. "Now please listen to our choir sing a song all about the houses of Hogwarts. We turned our heads to students standing on the steps as professor Mcgonagall set an old hat up on a stool three feet from the students. The students then began singing a song called
Old Hogwarts Sorting Hat. *
The song was a beautiful melody about all the great sorcerers that we would be sorted into. It spoke of what the houses stood for and I knew I wanted to be in the choir. I began singing along with the students at the description of Salazar Slytherin. My singing seemed to catch everyone's attention and professor Mcgonagall paused the choir and asked me to join the choir. I let my mouth fall wide open. I knew I was good but I didn't know I was that good. She placed me next to a boy and handed me a book to follow along. We then restarted the song from the beginning. Although I didn't know it well I did my best. The song ended and everyone clapped in pleasure especially professor Quriell who was standing up still clapping when others stopped. "Well done my dear you have the voice an angel." I thanked him and went back to my friends. "Now when I call your name you will come fourth and I shall place the sorting hat on your head and you will be sorted into your houses."
Hermione was sorted into Gryffindor so was Harry and Ron. Draco was sorted into Slytherin. Three others were sorted into Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff. "Nemissia Knight." I froze when she called my name until a girl behind me nudged me in my arm. I walked up to the stool and sat down comfrontablly. The professor set the hat on my head and I heard it speak to me.
"Well, well this is unexpected I never imagined I would sort someone so special. Now where should I place you? Your mother was a Ravenclaw and very well equipped with the ability to command the elements and your father was a Slytherin he could talk to snakes. You can too but your fear of snakes blocks that ability. You have the brains for Ravenclaw but not enough. You have kindness, and nobility. You also have courage and ambition but you don't believe in it. A part of you wants to be with your friend Harry but you also want to prove yourself. Very difficult for me to place you. I think your father would be pleased if you were placed in Slytherin!
I felt upset that I couldn't be with Harry, Ron and Hermione I really wanted to be with them but the hat agreed that I should prove myself and possibly impress my father. Just who was my father anyway? I walked to the Slytherin table and Draco stood up and bowed to me like I was a princess. "Knock it off Draco just because I got in Slytherin doesn't mean things will change between us you're still a jerk." He sat back down and then I sat across from him while Crabbe and Goyle sat next to Draco. I turned to look at my friends in Gryffindor. They all smiled at me for what I said to Draco. It reassured them that I wasn't going to be like all the other Slytherins. The feast began after all the other first years were sorted and food apprepared on the table. Put chicken mashed potatoes and gravy on my plate and then Draco passed me a piece of chocolate cake and said. "Look I think you and me got off on the wrong foot and I want to apologize for insulting your friend and embarrassing you when I flirted with you, I promise that I will try to better."
"I doubt that Draco but I do encourage you to try." I ate my food and ignored him for the rest of the night.

After the feast we followed our head boys and girls to our common rooms. I went up to Harry to say goodnight. "Harry wait up!" He turned around and stopped as I went up to him. "I just wanted to say goodnight and I don't want you to think that I'm going to turn bad okay."
"Don't worry I've known you all my life you're way too nice." A young boy then came up to Harry his name was Seamus Finnegan.
"Harry come on the head boy is waiting for you."
"By the way I'm Seamus Finnegan its nice to meet you Nemissia."
"Thank you you're very kind."
He smiled shyly at me and I could tell that he had a crush on me, oh boy. I turned on my heels and ran back to my group. We walked by some pictures and I saw that all of them were moving. I mostly liked the one of some woman having a tea party wishing I could join them. We then went up some stairs and they began moving to the Slytherin house. "Keep an eye on the staircases they will change on you." Our head boy said. The staircase stopped and we walked up it was Salazar Slytherin himself I couldn't believe it. "Password." He said. "Purebloods."
We went in and I saw that there were green and black couches against every wall except one that had a fireplace going. "Welcome to the Slytherin common room here you can relax and chat with your friends please go to bed before midnight, boys rooms up stairs to your right and girls up to your left all your belongings are already in your rooms." I ran up to my room and saw a canopie bed with black sheets and black and green comforter. I let my kitten out of her cage and she began purring as I started petting her. It felt nice to pet her it was taking away all my stress about who my father might be and why the sorting hat said I would possibly make him proud in Slytherin. It didn't make sense my grandma always talked about my mom but she never once told me about my father she said that he couldn't be trusted. I wondered if I would ever find who he was.
