Chapter 7: Much too big of a heart

Brooke's P.O.V

As we got of the train heard the sound of someone calling out for first years "Don't worry about it, just come with us in the carriages" Remus said to me. "Okay I said" and let Sirius drag me to one or the carriages.

As I sat in the carriage on the way to Hogwarts I couldn't help but start to daydream.

*Daydream*

I was flying through the soothing clouds, the breeze buffeting my flame-covered wings.

As I looked below me I could see a beautiful lake, surrounded by a light splattering of forest, also with lots of pretty glittering streams leading off it. 

As I flew I could hear the sound of the streams trickling below me until they faded from view.

Suddenly the day turned into night and I found myself gliding above a dark, mysterious woods, with enough space in between the trees for me to see the main path through the woods. 

Suddenly a beautiful, but chilling howl rose into the star-filled sky, elusive and lingering in the night.

The howl made me curious and I was strangely drawn to it. 

Shooting through the sky I made my descent, as I began to slow myself down and glide over the trees I noticed something emerge from behind a close bunch of trees. 

Using my enhanced eye sight I could tell that this creature was a werewolf, not the least bit threatening in my current form.

Due to it's keen sense of smell the werewolf could tell that I was there. It looked up at me with it's curious eyes and I gently took off again, gliding over the forest with the beautiful wolf running below me.

*Daydream interrupted*

Sirius was snapping his finger's in front of my face and my day dream ended.

"You okay there Brooke?, I can see why you fit in perfectly well with the Lovegoods!" Sirius said with a grin on his face, James laughing heart fully at his comment. Remus rolled his eyes but chuckled. "Was that an insult?" I asked pretending to be extremely offended. "No, why of course my dear Lady! Anything to offend you!" Sirius told me just as dramatically as I had. I fake gasped and clutched a hand to my chest, flopping backwards and pretended to die.

Sirius and James started fake sobbing over my 'Dead' body. Remus laughed, but soon the fun ended. "Come on guys, we've arrived!" Remus told us happily. Sirius laughed "Well since Brooke's clearly dead I must carry her to the castle!" He announced gravely. Remus and James were practically dying of laughter themselves! 

Sirius picked me up newly wed style and I struggled, trying to get away but Sirius tightened his hold and tutted. "Uh uh uh, you supposed to be dead, you can't go anywhere!" He exclaimed to me. I groaned and let my head flop back in exasperation. Remus and James laughed harder, if that were even possible!

Luckily nobody saw us whilst we were walking up to Hogwarts. When we got to the gate Sirius dropped me lightly on the floor. "THANK YOU!" I said offended, hitting him around the back of the head. "Oww!" Sirius complained. I rolled my eyes "Shouldn't have picked me up then!" I told him.

Sirius pouted and James snickered while Remus chuckled. We walked through the door and into the school. "I think your supposed to go stand with the first years" Remus told me. "Okay" I said cheerfully and we all gave our goodbyes as we went our separate ways.

 "Midgets" (Author: No offense intended!) I muttered as I walked up to the first years. I arrived just as the teacher, a middle aged woman with brown hair that contained just a couple of grey streaks and Kind brown eyes.

She started to speak. "Welcome to Hogwarts. I am Minerva Mcgonagall, Professor Mcgonagall to you, head of Griffindor house. The houses you will be sorted into are Huffle..." I zoned out after that, as Xeno had already explained everything about the houses to me. It only caught my attention again when she said "Now  lets go in!".

We walked into the great hall and I didn't even bother to look at the ceiling, It was exactly the same as my room at home anyway.

A man with a long white beard and sparkling blue eyes stood up. As you have probably noticed we have a transfer student this year. She is in her Sixth year and has transferred from a school in the Rockies. Well, let's start the sorting now, shall we?"

The list went in order so there was a couple of other people called out before me.

 "Lovegood, Brooke" Minnie (I don't like having to use her full name, so I gave her a nickname (; ) 

I walked gracefully up to the stool and gently sat down. Minnie placed the hat on my head and I reacted non-surprised to the voice in my head. "So what do we have here, hmm? Well, you have all the loyalty of a Hufflepuff... hmm... You can be very cunning as you proved on the train" The hat laughed out loud and I grinned at the memory. "But most certainly not a Slytherin! Much too big of a heart! A Griffendor would fit you well... very courageous and you would definitely stand up for your friends if it was needed" "I would protect my friends with my life!" She told the hat in her head. "Indeed it seems. Then again it would be like a crime against nature if I were not to put you in Ravenclaw, you one of the brightest students i've ever seen!"

Then the hat spoke out loud "So it must be-"
