Evelyn's p.o.v

The first day of Hogwarts.  Sorting time.  I knew what my house would be. Slytherin.  Unlike my ugly older brother who was a filthy Gryffindor.  He was so proud as well, which makes me feel sick. 

He completely destroyed my family's reputation.

But yet I don't want to be like Regulus. 

I want to be one of my own: important and unique.  I want to do my family proud

'Evelyn Black'
I walk up to the hat firmly, showing a slight smirk on the right side of my face.  I sit on the chair upright.  The second the hat was placed on my head I hear it yell
"SLYTHERIN"

Sirius' p.o.v

I look at my younger sister who walks confidently towards the hat.  I know that she has nothing to fear.  She was highly ambitious and cunning, just like the rest of them.  But I still look inside her for hope that she may join me.  She sits almost stiffly.

"SLYTHERIN"

I looked away, feeling a slight pang of disappointment.

"Did you think she would actually join us?!" James mocks behind me

"Shut up" I said with a slight smirk.
