Read Between The Lines





"Good bye Mum," Angel cried as her mother left her to get on the train by herself. She was starting her first year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Her parents both being wizards had always prepared her for this, her first day and they were thrilled when she got the letter a few months ago. She picked up her trunk and hulled it over to the train doors, shoved it inside and then got inside herself. She didn't have many friends back home because, she was part of the only wizarding family in her town so she wasn't a very sociable person. I'll sit in the back, she decided for herself. As soon as she was sure she had reached the final car, she opened the cabin door and pushed her trunk inside then she once again followed. "Hello" said a voice from beside her. She looked over and two boys looked back at her. "Oh I'm sorry, I didn't think anyone was back here. Do you mind if I sit with you?" Angel asked as she collapsed into the soft seat next to her trunk. "No. Your already here so it doesn't matter," One of the boys answered. She smiled at them and they went back to talking about what they were talking about before she entered the cabin. She figured that the trip to the castle would be a long one so she stood up, and laid down on the seats, stretching her legs. A few seconds later someone opened the door and walked in, lugging a large leather trunk. "Can I sit here? All the other cabins are full?" the new person asked. She was a girl, and even if she was only eleven she was pretty. Her long red hair was pulled back with an emerald ribbon which made her bright green eyes stand out even more and she had the prettiest smile. "I don't mind, ask those two" Angel commented while pointing at the two boys opposite her in the cabin. "Well," the red haired girl asked again. "OK" the boy that answered Angel previously said. The other girl pushed her trunk against Angel's and sat down at Angel's feet. "What's your name?" the girl asked, her question directed at Angel. "Angel Matthews. Yours?" Angel responded. "Lily. Lily Vance" the girl answered her with a smile. "I'm Sirius Black" said the boy who had been the only one speaking to the girls. "I'm James Potter," the other boy added. "Are you two-first years also?" "I am," Angel said. "Same here. I am really confused, I don't come from a wizarding family and I don't know what to expect? I already saw some boys playing chess but, the figures talked," Lily explained. Sirius, James and Angel burst out laughing. "I don't find any of this funny." "That's the way wizards play chess. The pieces talk," Sirius said and it only made Lily appear more confused then ever. The others stopped laughing. "It wasn't funny," Lily repeated. "I take it since you knew about the pieces you two are wizards? And possibly brothers?" Angel inquired. The boys smiled at each other and then looked back at the two girls. They looked nothing alike except for height. James had dark untidy hair, brown eyes and he was lanky. Sirius had longer hair that was the same color as wheat, he was lanky but rather well built for an eleven year old and had wonderfully beautiful eyes. Angel noted that the first time she saw him. "Wizards, yes. Brothers, almost. We've been friends since forever and it's going to stay that way." Sirius snorted. James nodded his head in agreement. "Uh huh," Angel smiled. "Your a pureblood, then?" James asked Angel. She nodded. "What's a pureblood?" Lily wondered aloud. "It means that your parents are both wizards. A half-blood means one parent is a muggle and one is a wizard. And a...well, the only other one that you may hear is one that means you have no magical background," Angel explained with knowledge. Sirius and James nodded at Lily to confirm that this information was true. "Oh," Lily said interested. "I'm going to take a nap so be quiet, please?" Angel announced. James and Sirius turned back to each other and started one of their conversations. Lily reached inside a leather bag at her side and pulled out a thick, green leather book, opened to a page in the middle and started reading. In about a half an hour the cabin door opened again. This time a plump witch walked inside. "Would any of you children care for some snacks?" asked the witch, her finger pointing outside the cabin to a cart filled with snacks. "Can we have a look?" Sirius requested. The witch smiled at him as she wheeled the cart inside. James and Sirius each held out two golden coins, about the size of hubcaps and handed them to the witch as Sirius said, "Two of everything for me, and two of everything for James." "And for you two ladies?" the witch said as she handed the boys bags of candy, and two cans of pumpkin juice each. "Nothing for me, thank you anyway" Lily answered sadly. The witch turned and looked at Angel. "Nothing here either." Angel smiled, "Thank you." "All right but, you still have about two hours until you reach Hogwarts...eh, why do you two have that blanket ov'r your heads?" the witch responded as she looked at Sirius and James who were in fact covered by a blanket. The witch didn't need to wait for their answer because, almost as soon as the question was out of her mouth the cart started shaking, sending icing filled pastries, pumpkin juice cans and several items of food crashing to the wall of the cabin and a few seconds later the whole cart exploded sending food sailing everywhere. "That's it! Detention!" the witch screamed loudly through a Cauldron Cake that had somehow gotten stuck in her mouth. "Serves you right," Lily mumbled while cleaning herself off. Angel was very upset that the boys hadn't warned her because, her new robe had white icing and pumpkin juice all over it, she agreed completely with Lily. "All four of you are to have this cleaned off by the time the train pulls into it's destination at Hogwarts. And I mean spotless! And then if the professor thinks you haven't been punished enough you may be doing more work! Now, get to cleaning and NO MAGIC!" The witch bellowed as she slammed the door. A few seconds passed and she returned with four rags, "I mean now!" she said tossing one rag to each child, then she left again. "No way am I cleaning up your mess!" Angel roared. Lily nodded in agreement. "She said all four of us so that means your cleaning too," Sirius said as he and James threw the icing covered blanket aside. "Oh no! She thought we were in on it and no, no, no we aren't cleaning." Angel screeched as she threw her rag at Sirius's head. He caught it and threw it back at her feet where it lay. "Yes you are. Besides, it was all in fun. Right, James?" Sirius exclaimed. "Yes, very good fun. Now, let's clean." James smiled. "Why? We didn't make the mess you two did" Lily objected. Sirius smirked and a bemused expression played over his face. "Because the witch lady told you to help and now you have too!" he smiled again. Lily sighed deeply and started rubbing some icing off of the wall behind her. Angel glared at Sirius who returned it with his own stare. Angel picked up her rag and started rubbing some pumpkin juice trickle from the wall. Sirius and James went to work together on their side of the cabin. After about two hours the cabin looked like it had before. "Finally we're done," James said as he stretched out on the seat. Angel was about to say something when the train jerked to a stop and sent them all tumbling into the door. After they all got up James added, "Guess that means we're there." "The sooner I get away from you two troublemakers, the better." Angel muttered. "Oh no, James. She hates us! What are we going to do?" Sirius responded with a lot of sarcasm. James laughed and in a short second Sirius joined him. Angel heard Lily sigh from behind her and she turned to look at her. She was holding her book by the bind and it was covered in icing with pumpkin juice dripping from inside. "It's OK Lily. I'm sure that when you dry it off the book will be fine," Angel reassured her. Lily looked up, surprised that anyone had noticed her and started dabbing at the inside the book with her rag. Angel looked at Sirius and James who were gathering their trunks from the top of the cabin where they were stored. She heard a small gasp from Lily and turned around again. "It's ruined," Lily squeaked. She held the book out to Angel who took it and examined the inside. Lily was right, it was ruined. The pages were damp with pumpkin juice and the ink on most of the pages were smeared. "Oh well,...I'll just buy another one." "No, you won't," Angel handed the book back to Lily and rounded on the two boys. "You two ruined her book, aren't you at least say sorry? At the very least?" "Sorry," Sirius said mimicking Angel's voice. James laughed as the two started pulling their trunks out of the cabin. "Don't worry about it Lily. We'll get them back," Angel said quietly. Sirius and James were no longer in the cabin as Angel made sure her trunk was closed, then she opened it to make sure they hadn't put anything inside while she had been napping. When she was sure they hadn't put anything inside she shut her trunk again and started outside. "You coming Lily?" "Huh? Oh...yes" Lily said as she put her ruined book back inside of her bag. She got up and followed Angel's lead outside with her trunk. Just when they were about to reach the door Lily's trunk was hit in the side by a boy. He had greasy black hair and a crooked, hooked nose. "Watch where your going! And why do the two of you have your trunks? Your supposed to leave them outside your door to your cabin! I bet the both of you are Mud-bloods!" came the boy's icy voice. "I'm sorry. Excuse me," came Lily's soft apologetic voice. The boy dismissed her quickly and turned to look at Angel who stood there hands on her hips. Mud-blood? Her? Most certainly not. He was obviously waiting for an apology but, he wasn't going to get one. "Well? Aren't you going to apologize like your little friend there?" the boy's voice rang out again. Angel felt a surge of anger coming on but, she took one look at Lily's passive face and decided against taking action. "I'm sorry that you weren't watching where you were going and you bumped into Lily, I'm sorry that your brain can't process the information that we didn't know where to put our trunks and I am sorry that you were never taught how to bathe correctly." Angel snapped. She walked over to Lily and steered her outside as the boy stood there in shock. "Don't worry about him, OK?" "Thanks. I didn't really think it was our fault. He seems so angry," Lily said after they were outside of the train. "Do you think they'll get our trunks if they aren't in front of the cabin?" "They will. Don't worry," Angel assured Lily. "Now, we have three people to put on a hit list...James Potter, Sirius Black and the boy with the crooked nose who needs to shower!" she added and she and Lily laughed. "Fir's years th's way!" came a booming voice from somewhere to the girls left. They both looked to find where the voice had come from and they saw something that made them both jump! A man who looked to be a half giant with a long black beard was pointing them towards little boats in a lake. It was freezing and this man, giant whatever he was wanted them to paddle boats across the lake? "Come on now...I haven't got all night!" the giant said this time. "Come on. The sooner we get in the sooner we can sleep," Angel said to Lily as they set off in the direction of the giant/man. When they got there, they both seemed to notice that the temperature had dropped considerably in a few seconds. "First years!," the giant man called a second time as they passed, "No more then four to a boat!" Angel and Lily got into the first boat they saw that only had two other passengers. Once they sat down they noticed the other two passengers were girls. The one next to Angel had light brown hair with natural highlights, brown eyes with gorgeous green flecks and she looked very frightened. The other girl who was seated next to Lily had long, sleek black hair and brown eyes. She too had the worried look and also, looked like she desperately wanted to go home. "I'm Lily Vance what's your names?," Angel heard a soft voice ask the other two girls. "Lyza. Lyza Taylor," the girl next to Angel answered. "I'm Alena," Alena with the long black hair responded. "Who are you?," she added looking at Angel. "Angel Matthews," Angel said. All the girls shared one of those uncomfortable smiles, glad to know they weren't the only nervous ones. The monster man walked along the back ends of the boats checking the capacity was met at each boat. "All right here we go," he yelled as soon as he was assured everything was safe. He climbed on his own boat and almost at once the small, rickdy boats began to sail across the lake. It was a beautiful sight, the castle that they'd all be calling home for the next seven years. Although she had her doubts whether or not a certain two people would not be expelled. "Oh my...that's beautiful," Alena piped up when they caught the castle in full view. It had many towers, the tallest Angel assumed was for astrology. It had many windows, torches and ivy vines on the outside of the gray stone. The thing that Angel's and almost everyone else's attention was on was the giant Hogwart's crest. It showed a scarlet lion which was made of rubies, a blue eagle made of sapphires, a yellow badger made of topaz and an emerald snake united around a diamond H. Barley anyone noticed the boats dock because, they were all enjoying their first sight of the castle. It was so splendid. As many people noticed the boats dock which was few also noticed the strict looking witch approach the mob of first years. She was tall, her shiny black hair was whipped back in a tight bun, she was wearing elegant robes in scarlet and gold and her wire rimmed glasses only added to her look. "Attention first years, you are to follow me inside the castle where you will wait patiently for the sorting of houses. Your trunks will be delivered to your dormitories don't worry. Now follow me," the woman ushered them towards the door. Once inside Angel noticed the entrance hall was so big her house could have fit in it at least twice. And her house wasn't small. The stone walls were glowing from the torches lining them, the ceiling was too high up for her to say what it looked like and the only other thing there was a marble staircase leading to the upper floors. They followed the strict looking witch across the floor. Angel could hear thousand other voices from a doorway to her right. She figured the rest of the school was in there...however the witch led the first years into a small, abandoned chamber of the hall. They gathered closely due to lack of room, all looking nervous. "Welcome to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry," said the strict witch who was floating magically above them. Once everyone saw this there were a few gasps here and there, "I am Professor McGoganall. The start of term feast will begin momentarily. But, before you go eat and before you sleep you will be sorted into houses. The sorting is of the utmost importance because, your house determines everything you'll do here. You will be attending lessons with the rest of your house, dine with them, sleep in your house dormitory and you will spend all your free time in your house common room seeing as how you are not permitted to walk the grounds. The four houses were named for the founders of Hogwarts and they are Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw and...Slytherin. Each house has a history, and has produced marvelous witches and wizards and you to one day will be added to that grouping. While, you attend Hogwarts you will earn your house points for answering questions, winning qudditch although you will not accomplish that until your second year if you do and other such possibilities. As soon as you gain points they however may be taken away for breaking the rules, or any other such mischievous things your minds may think of. Alas at the end of the year we award the House Cup to the house with the most points, it is a great honor. I sincerely hope you all become a necessity to whichever house you will call your own. "The Sorting Ceremony will take place soon in front of the rest of the school. I suggest you do not make fools of yourselves and try to look your best...I shall return soon. Please wait patiently." Professor McGoganall disappeared from her floating spot. "How do we get sorted into houses?" Lily asked. Angel saw Lily's hands trembling from within the sleeves of her robe. "I have no idea, Lily." Angel answered truthfully. Lyza and Alena were still huddled close by them fixing their hair which was perfect. "It's a test...," came a voice from behind them. It was one of the people on her hit list...Sirius Black who was accompanied closely by James Potter. They both wore smiles that were strangely...plastered with triumph. "Liars. My brother told me," Alena began. She didn't get to finish because, Professor McGoganall had reappeared and was motioning them to leave the room. If they didn't want to go they didn't have a choice anyway. The four girls and two boys were heered like the rest of the first years out of the room, down the hall again and into the door where the noise had come from earlier. "I'm so nervous," Lily said by Angel's side. She just noticed it but, they both had a deadly grip on each others hand. Professor McGoganall motioned for them to form a line and that they did. The professor opened the doors and what lay before them was a magnificent sight. Angel had heard from her parents that it was beautiful but, never imagined this. Even James and Sirius seemed shocked at it's beauty. The stone wall reflected the light from candles that were floating in the air. Four long tables where the rest of the Hogwarts students were sitting were silent now. On the tables were golden plates and goblets and the same for a table at the top of the hall where the teachers were sitting. Professor McGoganall led them to the top of the hall so they faced the other students and their rears faced the teachers. Everyone of the sitting students eyes were on the new students and Angel felt even more nervous then before if that was possible. She felt a small squeeze from Lily on her hand and she turned to look at the redhead who looked close to tears. "It's going to be fine Lily. It'll be over soon," Angel comforted her. Lily relaxed a little bit. Angel looked up at the ceiling, shocked at what she saw. It was midnight blue with several silver specks of stars. It was obviously bewitched as her parents had said. She looked back down and she smiled at Lily, who smiled vaguely back. She looked back at her soon to be Professor who now had a four-legged stool in front of the line of first years. On top of the stool she put a dirty wizards hat. It looked worn beyond repair. In seconds a rip near the brim of the hat opened, sort of like a mouth and it began to sing a song:


"Ye might not think I'm the prettiest thing.
But if ye didn't judged on what ye saw,
ye would know what I can bring.
I'll eat myself..every moon and star.
If ye can find another that will hold a par to me.
Ye can keep your bowlers black.
Because I have something that they do lack.
Ye top hats sleek and tall.
To me are very small.
For I am the Hogwarts hat.
And I will stomp the rest flat.
There's nothing in the head of thee.
That I cannot see.
So Put me on and I will tell thee.
Where Ye ought to be.
Grffyindor where ye might belong.
Where dwell the brave and strong.
Where their chivalry.
Make them their own calvary.
Hufflepuff may be where ye belong.
Where they are loyal, and very strong.
Or Yet in Ole Ravenclaw.
If ye mind be not of simple slaw.
Perhaps in Slytherin.
Where ye shall find some kin.
So do not fret.
For I am a sure bet.
Ye be safe with me.
Try me on and see."

The entire Great Hall exploded into applause. The hat somehow bowed to each of the tables then became a regular hat again. "When I call your name please step forward, place the hat on your head and sit on the stool and wait to be sorted." Professor McGoganall who now had a long piece of parchment in her hands announced. "Adams, Alena!" "I hate my name," Angel heard Alena say from beside her. Alena gracefully walked out of line and up to the stool, placed the hat on her head and sat on the stool. After a few seconds... "GRFFYINDOR!" the hat shouted. The table on the lines right clapped as Alena made her way over to sit down with her fellow Gryffindors. "Black, Sirius!" the hat took sometime with Sirius but, eventually shouted... "GRFFYINDOR!" "Bones, Rosana!" "HUFFELPUFF!" the hat shouted after a few moments. Rosana made a fast pace walk over to the Huffelpuff table. "Brown, Caitlin!" "RAVENCLAW!" The Ravenclaw table cheered loudly. Caitlin rushed over and sat next to someone who Angel guessed was her sister because, they resembled each other greatly. "Lauren, Brownstong!" "SLYTHERIN!" the hat sorted the first new Slytherin. Angel didn't pay much attention until Professor McGoganall and the hat finished with the L's. "Matthews, Angel!" Professor McGoganall barked. Lily and Angel broke their hands apart and Lily wished Angel good luck. She slowly approached the hat, placed it on her head and then sat neatly on the stool. "Ahh...very brave but, nervous. Bold, definitely. Hmm...I say you belong in....GRYFFINDOR!" the last word was shouted. Angel took off the hat and walked over to the applauding Gryffindor table. She slumped into a seat next to Alena and waited for Lily and Lyza to be seated. She drowned out almost everyone except Potter, James who joined Sirius in Gryffindor. Finally... "Taylor, Lyza!" McGoganall said. Lyza walked up carefully to the hat and put it on as she sat down. A few seconds later she joined them at the Gryffindor table. "Shaw, Olivia!" "RAVENCLAW!" Angel once again waited for Lily's name. While, she was waiting she heard that greasy, boy she and Lily encountered on the train was named Severus Snape and he was in Slytherin. Finally she heard Professor McGoganall call out, "Vance, Lily!" she waited for Lily to be placed in some other house but, instead... "GRYFFINDOR!" the hat shouted. This time Angel, Alena and Lyza joined in with the rest of the clapping Gryffindors. Lily sat next to Lyza and then they watched the rest of the ceremony...which had like six people, two of who went to Gryffindor. "Welcome to a new year at Hogwarts! Before we start our feast I would like to tell a joke about a witch, a wizard and an orge who walked into a bar...," an old man with shimmery gray hair and a long beard said from the staff table. Angel knew he was Albus Dumbeldore, the Hogwarts headmaster. He was interupted by a cough from every single staff member at the table except the giant man who had taken them across the lake, "Ahh...well after we eat then." All the students cheered and clapped, the four girls joining in not knowing what else to do. "Let's eat!" someone at the Gryffindor table said. Angel didn't know him but, she was hungry. She suddenly noticed that the golden plates and goblets were no longer empty but filled with food and drink. Mounds of potatoes, green beans, steaks, chicken and anything you could imagine graced the tables with it's yummy presence and all the students eagerly piled the food on. "Try the chicken, it's great!" another voice from her table spoke above the rest, it was a girl this time. "Oh my!" came a second girls voice, it sounded panicky. She was the girl who had been sorted into Gryffindor right after James Potter. Angel, Alena, Lyza and Lily immediately saw what she was looking at...an almost transparent ghost. He was dressed for Shakespheran times and looked pleased at the girls frightened gasp. "Don't worry, Michelle. He's a friendly ghost," came a boy's voice. Angel was happy to know he was friendly but, what was he doing in the Great Hall? "Yes, I am quiet friendly my dear. I just hope you new Gryffindors are beater behaved then our last batch," the ghost said joking to the other Gryffindors, "We need to get that house cup this year." "We will Nick, don't worry!" a voice came from across the table. The ghost smiled and continued down the hall until he disappeared behind a wall. After another hour and everyone had eaten their fill the plates cleaned themselves leaving them as perfect as they had looked before they filled with food. A moment later the table was filled with deserts of all kinds; Ice cream, cakes, chocolate eclairs, trifles, mixed fruits and vanilla pudding. As the first years digged in the tables talk turned to their familles. "I'm a pureblood, through and through," Alena boasted. Angel noticed the older student were paying attention to the first years conversation as well. "Same here," Sirius chimed in as he stuffed his mouth with a piece of cake. Angel swore he had already eaten three pieces. "The Potters is one of the oldest wizarding names in history so I suppose that makes me a pureblood as well," James joked. Several students laughed including Sirius who slapped him on the back so hard James spit out a lump of ice cream he had been eating. It flew across the table and hit another boy. Angel knew him as Remus Lupin, he had been sorted right before her. He laughed as he brushed the ice cream off. This brought along many more laughs. "Sorry." "No harm done, no harm." Remus began. "I'm a pureblood as well." "I'm a half-and-half. Mum's a witch and dad's a muggle," came the squeaky voice of a boy Angel did not know. He was short and chubby and looked like a rat. "Pure," Angel said. She didn't really care about all this but, she wanted to get her turn over with. "Half. Dad's a wizard and Mum's a muggle," Lyza said swishing her hair in front of her face. "Pureblood, here." came a boys voice. That was the five Gryffindor boys. All that left was Lily and Michelle. Angel assumed Michelle was pure since someone knew her name and she was right. "My sisters shy but, she's pure," said the boy that comforted Michelle about the ghost. "I guess that makes me the only...er...muggle witch here," Lily squeaked as she turned beat red. No one said anything. The older children went back to their conversations, so did the new first year boys and Michelle stirred her melted ice cream on her plate. "Don't worry Lily. You'll do better then those Slytherin girls over there," Alena started. "That one there," she added pointing to a blonde girl who looked bored out of her mind, "That's Teresa. She's a mean one. Her friends..." she continued pointing to two other blondes who were next to Teresa twirling their hair, "They are brainless, gits and couldn't do a spell correctly if it hit them in the back of the head. I don't know the others but, whatever your thinking...you'll do fine. I mean, I'm not at an advantage...mum said no one could teach me till I was here." Angel pretty much drowned out the rest of the conversation taking place between Lily and Alena sometimes Lyza would say something and stop. Angel leaned back in her seat and thought about how tired she was. She looked up at the staff table, she saw Professor McGoganall talking to Albus Dumeldore and the giant man whose name she still didn't know, a bug-eyed women talking to a witch with frizzy hair and a small amount of dirt on her canary yellow robes. She shut her eyes for a few seconds and then looked over at the Slytherin table...the blonde girl was staring a hole right through Alena. Angel smiled...this year is going to be interesting. The blonde's gaze shifted and looked straight into Angel's eyes...Angel glared back and the girl started whispering to her friends. "Made friends fast I see," Lyza commented from her side. Lyza was looking over at the blonde trio who were talking, looking back over to the Gryffindor table, talking again and looking back. "I love making enemies...makes things interesting," Angel snorted. She and Lyza shared one of those odd smiles again only this one was of comfort. "Hmm...well I can't wait to see our rooms! I call window!" Alena now joined the conversation. "No way! I call window!" both Lily and Lyza shouted. Then they both conversed in giggles after saying, "Jinx!" "I say I get it since I didn't call claim to it!" Angel smiled. "Well, maybe we should ask Michelle too." Lily suggested. "We can talk about it when we get up there...I'm to tired to argue now," Alena said. She pretended to fall asleep, the other girls including Angel laughed. Alena snapped out of it as Dumbeldore started talking again. "Ahem. Now that we are all fed and watered. I have a few start of term notices to give you," he said as one of the other Gryffindors commented ("Didn't he say that last year? And the year before?") Dumeldore continued, "First years, the Forbidden Forest is off limits to you and the rest of our students. You all should remember that. I have also been asked by Mr.Flich, the Hogwarts caretaker to remind you all that magic is not to be used in between classes, in your common room or in any corridor for any reason. Qudditch trials will be held in two weeks, anyone interested in trying out see Madam Hootch," he said pointing to a witch three seats away from him, "I believe that's all. Now before we go to bed...let us sing the Hogwarts song!" The elder wizard gave his wand a light flick as a long golden ribbon flew out of it. The ribbon rose high above the table and twisted itself into words. "Pick your favorite tune and we'll begin!" The whole school sang loudly: "Hogwarts, Hogwarts, Hoggy Wart Hogwarts, Teach us something please, Whether we be old and bald Or young with scrabby knees, Our heads could do with filling With some interesting stuff, For now they're bare and full of air, Dead Flies and bits of fluff, So teach us things worth knowing, Bring back what we've forgot, Just do your best, we'll do the rest, And learn until our brains all rot." Angel sang the song to the tune of "Happy Birthday" because, she couldn't think of anything else. Alena sang it to "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star," Lyza and Lily sang to the tune of "On top Spaghetti" together. Several other people came up with other songs but, James and Sirius sang to the Bride Song and finished last. Everyone clapped at the end including Dumbeldore and much to Angel's surprise Professor McGoganall.
