A/N: This is my second Fan fiction. I'm 13 and I have no idea about laws so I will say this. "All rights go to whoever's rights they are!" If that makes sense…

Chapter 1: Sorting

"Now, do not disgrace the Family name!" Mrs. Black said solemnly as she held a young 11 year old Sirius by the shoulders, she turned him around to face the grand train heading to Hogwarts. "Bellatrix, Please take Sirius to your compartment, I'm sure he will get to know the better sort!" Bellatrix nodded and grabbed Sirius' arm leading him to the train.

"Baby's coming to join the biggies now, huh?" Bellatrix mocked,

"Shut up!" Sirius snapped, why did he have to go with those filthy pure-blood crazed Slytherins?

"Ooh! Not very nice, are we?" She asked laughing manically, "Well, let me tell you…" Sirius never knew what Bellatrix wanted to tell him because he had dived into the nearest compartment he could find. Three young boys stared at him.

"Uh…hi…" Sirius mumbled to the, like him, first years.

"Who're you?" Asked the one with untidy black hair and Hazel eyes, he didn't move his eyes from Sirius. Sirius knew he couldn't say Sirius black they would kick him out. Why did he have to be part of that family? The Backs had a reputation as filthy as their name.

"Sirius Lake…" He said trying to sound confident.

"Well, I'm James Potter; this is Remus Lupin and Peter Pettigrew." James said smiling.

"Would you like to sit down?" Asked Remus patting the seat beside him,

"Uh, yeah, thanks," He smiled at sat down. Anywhere was better than where he was supposed to go.

As he got chatty he found amusing how much they had in common, scary, even. As they came into their 2nd game of exploding snap the compartment door burst open.

"SIRUS BLACK," Sounded Bellatrix's shrill voice, "You are in so much trouble! Do you have any idea where I've been trying to find you? I had to walk into a compartment full of mudbloods!" James and Sirius scowled at this. Sirius looked over his shoulder to see James and Lupin mouthing black?

"See you uh, later…" Said Sirius as he was pulled out of the Compartment, but by the look on the others faces he wasn't so sure.

As Sirius walked into the Great hall he started at the magnificent ceiling that made a perfect image of a night sky, he saw Sirius the dog star, the star he was named after and wished that he was put into a proper house, not Slytherin. A pointed hat was sitting on a chair. As soon as it was placed on someone's head a face was created and sorted people into various houses.

"Black, Sirius!" Someone he knew to be Professor McGonagall. There were a few rumbles of voices at this and Sirius hated it. As he walked up and sat down on the small stool his vision was obscured by a large hat.

Alas another Black a voice echoed through his head, Sirius cringed. But you are not like them, no, but the others have done so well in Slytherin…

No, I'm not my family, I hate their ways! Ravenclaw would be fine. Sirius thought.

So noble and strong but oh so angry… yes, Hm… well…

"GRYFFINDOR" The sorting hat yelled to everyone. It took Sirius a few seconds to come to terms with what he had heard. He sat up and walked to the Gryffindor table, nobody was clapping and all eyes were on him. Even some of the teachers looked a bit disgruntled. As he sat down the person beside him shuffled over to the right. He stared at the Slytherin table; they were glaring at him viscously. He looked over to the Ravenclaws and saw Andromeda; she gave him a slight smile and went back to looking at her table. He glanced over at James, Remus and Pettigrew who stared at him but didn't talk; it was different before they knew he was a Black. Why did he have to be a Black? As the sorting ended and the feast began Sirius knew everyone was talking about him. A Black in Gryffindor, a dark wizard in such a good house?

Sirius pretended to be much more interested in his pie, he nibbled at it slightly, only able to imagine what his Families response would be. He slouched and rested his head on his hand, he glanced towards Dumbledore, the person his Parents spoke so horridly of, he was shocked when he was met with a look of pride and joy on Dumbledore's face as they stared at each other. Sirius smiled and felt much better somehow, he went back to his pie and decided the worst was still to come so he should enjoy himself!

A/N: So what do you think? Chapter two will be up in a flash! ;)
