The Lake

Me, Ron and Harry are in a boat together.

We look up in amazement at Hogwarts.

Wicked! "Ron said

The Castle

Were all in the Main Hall.

Welcome to Hogwarts. Now, in a few moments you will pass through these doors and join your classmates. But before you take your seats, you must be sorted into your houses. They are Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, 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 loose points. At the end of the year, the houses with the most points is awarded the house cup.  "The tall lady said.

She looks down as a toad begins to croak.

Trevor! "A boy yelled.

She gives him a look.

Sorry. "He said I just snickered.

He takes Trevor and goes back to his place.

The Sorting Ceremony will begin momentarily. "The lady said then she leaves.

It's true then, what they're saying on the train. Harry and Emely Potter has come to Hogwarts. "A blonde boy said.

Harry Potter? Emely Potter?  "Everyone whispered.

This is Crabbe and Goyle. And I'm Malfoy. Draco Malfoy. "The blonde boy said.

I snickered.

Ron covers up a laugh.

Think my name's funny do you? No need to ask yours. Red hair and a hand-me-down robe? You must be a Weasley. "Malfoy said to ron.

I glared at him.

You'll soon find out that some wizarding families are better than others, Potters. You don't want to making friends with the wrong sort. I can help you there. "Malfoy said.

He holds out his hand for Me and Harry to shake, but we dont take it.

We think we can tell the wrong sort for ourselfs thanks.  "We said in unison.

We're ready for you. Follow me.  "The lady said.

She walks up again and taps Malfoy on the shoulder.

He goes back to his place after shooting Me and Harry a dirty look.

Great Hall

We see Candles float in midair, and the ceiling looks like the night sky.

All the other students watch us file in.

It's not real the ceiling. It's just bewitched to look like the night outside. I read about it in Hogwarts, A History. "I told a girl next me and she smiled.

Hermione glared at me I gave her a confused look.

By the way I did some reading and I want to be prepared.

We reach the front of the Hall where all the teachers sit at a long table.

We come to a stop and and the lady goes up the few steps to stand beside a stool with a hat on it.

Will you wait along here please. Now before we begin, Professor Dumbledore would like to say a few words. "She said.

I have a few start-of-term notices I wish to announce. The first years please note, that the Dark Forest is strictly forbidden to all students. Also, our caretaker, Mr. Filch, has asked me to remind you that the third floor corridor on the right hand side is out of bounds to all who do not wish to die a most painful death. Thank you. "Professor Dumbledore said and sits down.
