This story starts from when Regulus Black was a death eater. Why he turned against Voldemort. It's all because of his daughter Carina Black. Follow Regulus in his final days then Carina's journey through Hogwarts with Harry. But why does she look li...
We arrived at the station and got off of the train leaving our luggage behind. As someone said over the PA that it'd be taken to the castle separately. When we exited the train I hear someone calling for first years. Harry, Ron and I followed the call to a giant of a man. Once all the first years had gathered he took us to the boats.
Where we separated into fours. I ended up with Hermione, an Irish boy and a girl with strawberry blonde hair. As Harry and Ron got into a boat with a dark skinned boy & another boy with a round face. Once everyone was in a boat they moved towards the castle.
When we arrived at a boat house we got out of the boats and the man lead us to the castle. Where he handed us off to a stern looking woman. With black greying hair and green eyes. "Thank you, Hagrid. I will take them from here" she tells him and he leaves us with her. She leads us to a room off to the side of the great hall. Where I can already hear the other students chatting inside happily.

"Welcome to Hogwarts, the start-of-term banquet will begin shortly. But before you take your seats in the Great Hall, you will be sorted into your houses. While you are here, your house will be like your family. The four houses are called Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, and Slytherin. While you are at Hogwarts, your triumphs will earn your house points, while any rule-breaking will lose house points. At the end of the year, the house with the most points is awarded the house cup. The Sorting Ceremony will take place in a few minutes in front of the rest of the school" she tells us then leaves us.
I'm still standing with Harry and Ron when a boy with gelled blonde hair speaks. "So it's true, then. What they're saying on the train. Harry Potter has come to Hogwarts" he states. Murmurs go through the other first years. "This is Crabbe, and Goyle" he says gesturing to the two boys beside him.
Then approaches Harry, Ron and I. "And I'm Malfoy. Draco Malfoy" he states and Ron sniggers. "Think my name's funny, do you? No need to ask yours. Red hair, and a hand-me-down-robe? You must be a Weasley" he sneers glaring at Ron.
"Nothing wrong with that" I tell him.
"You shouldn't associate yourself with the likes of him Black" he tells me and I rolled my eyes.
"You aren't the boss of me Malfoy" I tell him.
Instead of retorting, Draco turns back to Harry. "You'll soon find out some wizarding families are better than others, Potter. You don't want to go making friends with the wrong sort. I can help you there" he says holding a hand out.
"I think I can tell the wrong sort for myself, thanks" Harry tells him coolly and I smirk.
Just then four ghosts appeared from a wall. "My dear Friar, haven't we given Peeves all the chances he deserves? He gives us all a bad name and you know, he's not really even a ghost I say, what are you all doing here?" a tall ghosts tells the squat fat one.
But the Friar never answered as he spotted us. Now all four ghosts are looking at us. "New students! About to be Sorted, I suppose?" he asks us happily. I nod mutely along with some of the others. " Hope to see you in Hufflepuff! My old house, you know" he states/
"Move along now, said a sharp voice. The Sorting Ceremony's about to start" a sharp voice tells them. I turn to see the woman had returned and I finally remember who she is. She is Professor Minerva McGonagall Head of Gryffindor and Transfiguration professor. We follow her into the great hall and line up in front of head table.
Professor McGonagall silently placed a four-legged stool in front of the first years. On top of the stool she put a pointed wizard's hat. This hat was patched and frayed and extremely dirty. I watched as the hat twitched. A rip near the brim opened wide like a mouth and the hat began to sing.
