She gets off the boat, silently following Hagrid as he storms over to two large massive doors. He heaved them open with one push, she looked around the area, gargoyle and knight statues decorated the cemented walls. Columns seemed to travel as high as the eye can see.
Hagrid cleared his throat gaining her attention, she looked up at him with mystified eyes, " ye be join'in the firs years now, go on up those steps and to the left". She gave him a stiff headed nod, and turned to walk up the stairs with feline like grace. She stood behind the group of first years who all looked ahead at a slim elderly woman, she had deep forest green outfit on topped with a hat of the same shade. She cleared her throat gaining the attention of the First years.
" My Name Is Minerva Mcgonagall Deputy Headmistress of Hogwarts, if you will please follow me this way to the banquet hall we will begin Sorting".
Everyone gathered together into two groups as instructed, to large heavy oak doors were opened, large tables filled with students laughing and smiling at the newcomers could be seen near and far. Lana's piercing blue gaze landed on a small woooded stool, an old brown hat sitting on top.
She watched as Professor Mcgonagall walked up the stone steps gingerly all eyes intently focused on her form. She cleared her throat, " We have a new fifth year with us, before we proceed with the first years. Id like Lana WinterRose proceed with her housing."
Lana nodded her head meekly stepping up towards the stool. She sat down, her blue eyes shifting nervously. As the hat was placed on her head, she felt a poking movement in her brain, as if someone was searching through her life's endless torment.
With a loud call the hat proceeded to shout "GRYFFINDOR".
The whole table cheered as she made it to the table, red hair flowing in her every waking step. She was met with the sight of a girl with curly chestnut colored hair and deep mahogany Brown eyes.
The girl stuck her hand out in a friendly gesture, " Hello Im Hermoine Granger pleased to meet you Lana". She gently nodded to the girl. " These other two are Ron Weasley and Harry Potter".
Her eyes widened as she heard the name, as she stared into the eyes of the boy who lived.
