Chapter Four: Sorting

With her hair in two braids, she followed Professor Minerva McGonagall into the giant castle that was Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. She took in all the moving paintings and anything interesting she could find before the first years headed into the Great Hall.

Elliot scanned the Staff Tables but couldn't find her father, which made her more scared than she already was and, before she knew it, her name was called.

"Snape, Elliot!" McGonagall called. Whispers were heard from all four tables as Elliot slowly made her way up to the sorting hat.

"Don't be afraid, Dear," McGonagall smiled as Elliot sat on the stool, waiting to be sorted.

"Tough choice indeed," the Hat said. "Where to put you? Ravenclaw or Slytherin? Well, as your a Snape, I won't hesitate to put you in SLYTHERIN!" the Hat shouted across the hall.

Elliot made her way to the Slytherin Table and sat next to a boy with platinum blond hair and dull gray eyes.

"You're Elliot, aren't you?" He asked. Elliot nervously nodded her head.

"I'm Malfoy. Draco Malfoy," he introduced.
