I was born into the Malfoy family. My name is Hayley but unlike the rest of my family I feel that harry potter is a hero and lord voldemort is a villian. My twin brother Draco and I just turned eleven and in a week we will be going to hogwarts. I have read hogwarts; A history about a million times. I can not wait to actually go and see for myself.
We are going to diogan alley today to get wands and school supplies. Finally, I thought as we stepped out of the fireplace. First stop was Gringotts at vault number 8-3-5, next stop was Madam malkins to get school robes. Now on to floish and blotts to get the wonderful filled with knowledge school books. Now it's our last stop Olivervanders to get wands. My is 11 1/2 inches with dragon heart string core and unicorn hair. It was time to go home at last. I love magic but not dark arts as the rest of my family. I got up at 5:00 am to get ready to go to Hogwarts. I could not wait to go to platform 9 3/4.
At about 10:00 am we made it to king's cross station. I separated from Draco and Blaise when I got on the train because unlike them unlike them I did not want to be in slytherin. I want to be in ravenclaw. I found a compartment with a girl with bushy frizzy brown hair and a boy with a toad and short straight dark brown hair. "Hello I'm Hermione Granger" the girl said "Hi I'm Hayley Malfoy" I replied. "Hi I'm Neville Long-bottom" the boy said then he held up his toad and said "and this is trevor." I then sat down next to Hermione and across from Neville. We got to talking and I found out that Neville is a half-blood and lives with his grandmother. I also found out that Hermione is a muggle-born and also loves Hogwarts; A history as much as I do.
When we were half way there Neville lost Trevor so Hermione and I went around the train to try and help neville find him. We did not find poor trevor even we we got to hogsmed. We traveled in boats across the black lake to Hogwarts. When we got to Hogwarts we were met with a tall witch. She had her black hair back in a tight bun and had light baby blue eyes. Before she spoke there was a rib-it rib-it and Trevor was at her feet. Neville went and scooped him up. Then the teacher said "Welcome first years I am Professor McGonagall the sorting will begin soon." "First let me explain a few simple things", then she explained about the four houses and about the point system at Hogwarts. Also about the house cup at the end of the year.
She then lead us into the great hall where Hermione and I were talking about the enchanted celling from Hogwarts; A history. Hermione was first of the people I knew to be sorted she was put into Ravenclaw. Next person I knew that went up was Neville he was a Hufflepuff. Then when my brother was called up I notices our Uncle sev I mean Professor Snape leaned forward with interest. Draco was immediately put into slytherin. Then Mcgonagall finally called my name and as I sat down the hat slid over my eyes. The hat then whispered into my ear "interesting your from a family of slytherins yet you do not want to be a slytherin alright then." Then I heard the hat scream to the whole hall "ravenclaw." I happily toke off the hat and practically ran to the ravenclaw table. I sat down next to hermione and I was beaming.
