Today is september the first! I am going to Hogwarts! I see Julie again! Tough I saw her tree days ago and we will see each other at the perron. I visited Diagon Alley a lot. But last week I wasn't allowed to go anywhere because they thought that I shouldn't be wandering around in London on my own. So someone has to come with me or I can't go. And of course I can't take a muggle to Diagon Alley. So I have been practicing sword techniques. It is really interesting and they say I have a natural skill for it. In a few days I have become almost a master in it. I have send a letter to Julie if she could send a letter to prof. Potter if I am allowed to bring my sword with me. And guess what: I am! I am allowed to bring my sword with me when I let one of the teachers take the sharpness of the blade away. Now I can keep practising and get better. I packed my trunk. I need to eat my breakfast and start walking to King's Cross or else I will be late. I walk downstairs and look what we have for breakfast. As usual, we have bread and cheese. The only problem is that I don't like cheese. So I eat only bread. I walk down the road to King's Cross. I listen to a song called: Boulevard of Broken Dreams. This is a song from Greenday. I like their kind of music. Other bands and musicians I like are: Twenty one Pilots, Fall out Boy, Panic! at the Disco and My Chemical Romance. I have all their songs. I see King's Cross. There is a long line of people. I remember why I never go to King's Cross. It is so crowded with Harry Potter fans. I have read them too, but I wasn't allowed to visit it on September 1st. They say it's too crowded. But now I have to go to perron 9 and 10. I will meet Julie there.
<by perron 9 and 10>...
I see Julie! I run trough the crowd and hug her. I am glad I made it. She says: "Ok, Lucy, don't afraid. But you have to walk though the wall between-" "9 and 10. Just like in the Harry Potter books." I say. "No. You have to walk through the wall between platform 10 and 11." Julie finishes her sentence. "We changed it in the books to protect the society of wizards." "So everything in the HP books is real?" "Half of it." Julie answers with a smile. "Let's go to school." And we go to school. In the train we sit together. But when the train stops I have to follow prof. Potter and Julie has to follow the others. We are seperated and I don't like it. Since we've met, I can't stop thinking about her. It's like she is the sister I never had. But she will sit in the great hall hoping that I will be a Gryffindor tonight. While I was thinking, everyone started oohing and aahing so I looked what so impressive was. They saw Hogwarts, and so do I. I wanted to say something but I can't say anything at all. We step 4 by 4 in boats. I am in a boat whits 1 boy and 2 girls. I ask them : "hello, my name is Lucy. What is your name?" The girl whit Blonde hair and blue eyes answers first. "Hi, I am Alexandria but I prefer Alex. Nice to meet you." The boy and the other girl aren't so scared anymore and start to talk. The girl with black hair and dark brown, almost black, eyes starts. " Hi, nice to meet you. I am Volodya, but please call me Dya. I have a little weird parents." Her eyes fascinate me. Now the boy with red hair and light greyish green eyes talks "Hello, I am Vladimir, but I prefer Vlad. I am Dya's brother." Intersting. They are twins but are actually each others opposite. We start talking. "Which house do you like to be in?" Alex asks. " I want to be in Gryffindor or Ravenclaw. But there is a change that I will be in Slytherin." "What are they?" I ask because I only know the name Gryffindor. Julie forgot to teach me about the houses. "Don't you know?"She says "Well first you have Gryffindor, Gryffindor values courage, bravery, nerve, and chivalry. Its mascot is the lion, and its colours are scarlet and gold. Than you have Ravenclaw which values intelligence, creativity, learning, and wit. The house mascot is an eagle and the house colours are blue and bronze. You also have Hufflepuff, the people in Hufflepuff value hard work, patience, justice, and loyalty. The house mascot is the badger, and canary yellow and black are its colours. And at last you have Slytherin. Slytherin values ambition, cunning, leadership, and resourcefulness. The house mascot of Slytherin is the serpent, and the house colours are green and silver. I think that is all you need to know. At least for now." "Okay?" I say as I try to remember everything. "I guess that I want to be in Ravenclaw." Says Dya. "I want to be there too, but I probably will not. I am not that smart." says her brother. "I want to be in Gryffindor, because my friend is also a Gryffindor. And I am not patient, kinda smart and far from ambitious. So we will see." We are arrived and step out of the boats. We have to follow prof. Potter. We stand still before two giant doors. "Okay, in a few minutes we will walk past these doors and you will get sorted. There are four houses, each with a noble history. Gryffindor, Slytherin, Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff. If you will excuse me, I have some things to prepare. And you will have the time to clean yourself. And with these words he walked away. "Do I look presentable?" asks Alex "And do we?"ask the twins. "Listen, you all look beautiful. But more important what do you think we have to do inside. Fight a troll? Because that would be really cool." Suddenly, the doors open and we walk inside. There are 4 tables with children and 1 with the professors, there is prof. Potter. He is standing in front of the table with a hat and a chair. He puts tyhe chair down and puts the hat on top of it. Suddenly, the hat starts singing:
I may not be pretty,
But I've seen it all.
I may seem old,
But I still stand tall.
So try me on and we will see,
Which house you ought to be.
Maybe in Gryffindor, where they are brave,
where you stand up for your friends and take their secrets to your grave.
Or maybe Ravenclaw, where wit and cleverness are the keys,
when you are a Ravenclaw, you know your ABC's.
You might be a Hufflepuff, they're people that you should respect,
'cause they are also true and just and when you try to be friend, will not reject.
Or are you a Slytherin, where ambition comes first and you will blend,
They are cunning and nothing will stand in their way to the end.
So put me on, don't be afraid.
And I'll tell you where you belong.
I've only made 2 mistakes in a long long time,
And when we're done, I have a whole year to rhyme.
Every one started clapping, but I don't know what so special is. It's just a singing hat. Prof. Potter starts calling people to the hat.
Eagleseye, Alexandria....
Slytherin!
Gefield, Brandon......
Hufflepuff!
Anderson, Vladimir......
Ravenclaw!
Anderson, Volodya.....
Ravenclaw!
And then.....
Blocks, Luciana.
I walk to the chair and sit down. Prof. Potter puts the hat on my head. I hear a voice inside my head " Ahh! Luciana. I have waited for you. Ohhh. Interesting. You are brave but only if it concerns you or your friends. Therefore you are loyal. You are also creative which is a Ravenclaw and you like to finish what you have started, a Slitherin trait. You have all of the houses in you but not one more than the other. And not enough to just pick a random house. This is very hard... I know.....
"NONE!!!!!!" Screams the Hat
Wait what?!?!
