"Will you wait along here, please? Now, before we begin, Professor Dumbledore would like to say a few words." With that Professor McGonagall steps aside as an older man with a long grey beard rises from his seat and begins a speech:

"I have a few start of term notices I wish to announce. The first years please note that the dark forest is strictly forbidden to all students. Also, our caretaker, Mr. Flinch" we all look to see a ragged old man with a red eyed cat "has asked me to remind you that the 3rd floor corridor on the right side is out of bounds to everyone who does not wish to die a most painful death. Thank you." WAIT WHAT! How are they still running if parts of the school are banned because you might die? The professor then sits back into his seat.

"When I call your name, you will come forth, I shall place the sorting hat on your head, and you will be sorted into you r houses. Hermione Granger." McGonagall calls out Hermione whispers words of encouragement to herself as she walks to the stool and takes her seat all while Ron whispers something to Harry. After a moment of muttering the hat shouts:

"GRYFFINDOR!" the table with a lion banner above it claps the loudest Hermione joins that table.

"Draco Malfoy" He is so annoying he proudly walks up to the stool and sits. The hat freaks out and before it can even be placed upon his head screams

"SLYTHERIN!" what I assume is the Slytherin table cheers but not as loud as Gryffindor did. Again, Ron whispers something in Harry's ear, I'm not worried, I'm sure he will tell me later.

"Ronald Weasley." With that Ron gulps and makes his way up

"Ha! Another Weasley. I know just what to do with you... Gryffindor!" the Gryffindor table cheers as Ron releases a sigh of relief

"(Y/N) Potter" the hall falls silent I slowly make my way up to the seat I feel the hat on my scalp.

"mmm... very complicated, loyal and trustworthy like a Hufflepuff, wise and creative enough to be a Ravenclaw, you are as brave and daring as any Gryffindor and just like Slytherin cunning and resourceful. Why, you would do so well in all. I can sense your destined for great thing but what house shall help you along that path... uhm... mmm quite difficult indeed... well guess it will be...' the hat says this all quiet enough so only I can hear then yells 'SLYTHERIN!'

The Slytherin table cheer as I sit with them some yelling things like "WE GOT A POTTER!!!" I laugh at this then I hear

"Harry Potter" again the hall falls silent some students praying they get my brother after both the hat and my brother have a conversation the hat makes its choice

"GRYFFINDOR!" I feel a little disappointment that Harry and I aren't together, but we still will spend time together.

After a while, all first years have been sorted into one of the four houses, I start to talk to some kids near me hoping to make at least a friend by tomorrow that in my house. Professor McGonagall stand and rings a bell.

"Your attention, please." McGonagall sit and Dumbledore stands and shouts:

"Let the feast... begin." And with that food appears on the table, plenty of other first years make sounds of awe this looks so good, I may get used to eating a lot, but as for now I will just take small amounts.

During dinner there where a lot of ghosts and the only one I really talked to was Peeves apparently, he is a troublesome ghost, so I want to help cause trouble with him. Whenever I looked at Harry he was looking at me disappointed like I had a choice in where I was placed, maybe he was disappointed because he wanted to be in the same house like I did, whatever, I will ask him about it later.
