In the two hours of mingling I met more people like this boy called Cedric, a Hufflepuff who seemed pretty nice, a girl called Astoria who is now a great friend of mine and that Hermione girl who was just like Ron said she was. Crazy, clever and co-co but was nice at the same time. She was a muggle-born so I'm supposed to hate her yet she shouldn't be treated that way. Even Lila made some new cat friends. The finally made its way to a quite small train station. Much calmer and nicer than the other one. Mabey I won't be squashed this time.

"So........Where do we go now Kai?" I asked my new bestie Skye

"I don't actually know Charlie" Skye replied as we walked down the corridors of the train in our new uniforms. Jet black robes with Hogwarts crest on, an animal one each quarter for each house. Badger for Hufflepuff, Lion symbolises Gryfindor, Ravenclaw Eagle and a Serpent represents Slytherin.

Anyway, I wonder what house we will get, Hufflepuff, Gryfindor, Ravenclaw or Slytherin but whatever happens we will still be friend though" I said with a slight pause in, "I hope I get either Gryfindor or Hufflepuff, their loyal and brave. And I'm both of those things as I've stayed with my family for this long" I added laughing

"Ha-ha yeah, I don't mind which house I get... Oh! By the way I saw your brother here and think he's kind of cute" Skye pointed out

I rolled my eyes. "What my Brother cute!? Ewwwwwwwwww, well you must be born weird my friend. However it would be cool to be sisters so I will make sur you two get married" I said hugging Skye till she could not breathe. It's like we have been friends for ever.

We got near the door of the carriage when... CRASH! I tripped over the step of the train and went tumbling. I was suspecting the cold hard ground but instead I felt two hands save me. Carefully I looked up to see a red head just like Ron who was smiling at me.

"Clumsy you are" said the boy. He was wearing Gryfindor robes and lauging. Even though I did not want to laugh back I did as its best to do that.

"Well yes I am" I took the boys hand and got up slowly

"Names George Wealey and I hope you like it here." George said leaving

"Charlotte and bye" I waved back at him then Skye got very excited

"Well who's that nice boy and what do you think" Skye swooned. I elbowed her and grabbed her hand and followed this giant man called Hagrid who will guide us off to Hogwarts!

Skip to Sorting Ceremony

"Wow! This is amazing" I whispered to Skye and Tori who I was linked arms with as an old looking teacher (I'm very sorry Professor) called Professor McGonagall lead us I to the hall. Dazzling lights surrounded us and we finally reached the front table where Dumbledore and all the other teachers were. It is awesome that I have finally met them. In front of them was a stall with a hat on top. I was really confused until the weirdest thing that happened today. The hat sang!

"Oh, you may not think I'm pretty,

But don't judge on what you see,

I'll eat myself if you can find

A smarter hat then me.

You can keep your bowlers black,

Your top hats sleek and tall,

For I'm the Hogwarts Sorting Hat

And I can cap them all.

There's nothing hidden in your head

The Sorting Hat can't see,

So try me on and I will tell you

Where you ought to be.

You might belong in Gryffindor,

Where dwell the brave at heart,

Their daring, nerve and chivalry,

Set Gryffindors apart;

You might belong in Hufflepuff

Where they are just and loyal,

Those patient Hufflepuffs are true,

And unafraid of toil;

Or yet in wise old Ravenclaw,

If you've a ready mind,

Where those of wit and learning,

Will always find their kind;

Or perhaps in Slytherin,

Where you'll meet your real friends,

Those cunning folk use any means,

To achieve their ends.

So put me on! Don't be afraid!

And don't get in a flap!

You're in safe hands (though I have none)

For a Thinking Cap."

What! This is mad. The sorting began. Hermione (Grifindor), Ron (Gryfindor) Tori (Slytherin) Draco (Slytherin, no surprise there) and Harry got gryfindor too and so on. It took a long time for the hat to choose Harrys but I think he chose right.

I turned around to see George who I saw eairler staring at me. Does he like me? Surely not.

"Charlie pay attention!" Skye said punching my arm

"OK OK Calm down" I replied punching her back

"Charlotte Malfoy!" the hat pronounced. Oh goodness, what will happen?

"Go on Charlie" Skye said "And renember whatever happens me and Tori will forever be your friend" I smiled and headed off.

I walked over to the stall. Slowly McGonagall put the hat on my head and it started to talk.

"Hummm Difficult, very difficult. Brave, Kind, Sometimes intelligent, independent and ambitious but were to put you" the hat said. This is way too stressful.

The hat continued, "Should I put you in the house your family is in like your brother, Slytherin or should I not" Please not hat please. After 2 more minutes the hat shouted... "HUFFLEPUFF!" I sighed in relief and joined the cheering table of the hufflepuffs. Now I just wonder what Skye will get.

"Skye Jones" the hat yelled. Skye gulped and walked over a bit worried. The hat was slowly put on her head. He murmured a few word to her and "RAVENCLAW!" I clapped as she walked over to the table with her new classmates on.

"Now for the feast!" Dumbledore shouted. I may not be in the same house as all friends but I just know Hogwarts is going to be great!.....
