Fayth Hillman sat in the very last compartment of the Hogwarts Express. This was her first year and she was extremely scared. Fayth was a pureblood witch whose parents were squibs. So it was a great deal of happiness that she had magic powers. Suddenly there was a loud cry from the corridor. Looking out she saw a girl with red hair being picked on by two second years. Her eyes narrowed and she stepped out to confront the boys.

"Leave her alone Lucius! What's she done to you?" Fayth called

"Well if it isn't the biggest mudblood ever!" sneered Lucius turning her gaze to Fayth.

"Im not a mudblood and if that's what all this is about, let her go or i'll hex you into eternity!" Fayth hissed.

She offered her hand to the red head against the wall. Lucius and his friend walked away so Fayth and the new girl sat down in Fayth's compartment. The new kid looked scared and was extremely pale. Her eyes were filled with tears and she looked like she was going to cry. Before she knew it Fayth was comforting the girl.

"Don't worry about him; he's just a huge git" Fayth said looking concerned.

"Oh yeah my names Fayth Hillman and you are?" Fayth asked smiling.

"My names Lily Evans" said the red head.

Lily and Fayth talked about their families and their lives. Then the lunch trolley came around and Fayth bought lunch. But not to long after that three boys ran into the compartment. Two of them had black hair and the other boy had sandy blonde hair. They sat down and tried to eat but Fayth smacked all three of them.

"OMG James, Sirius, and Remus that is so rude!" Fayth shouted

"Dear Fayth we don't want to be rude" the boy named Sirius mocked

"Fay? May we have something to eat, please?" the blonde boy asked.

"I guess so, just save some for Lily and me" Fayth replied.

Fayth introduced Lily to the new boys. The first boy to talk had black hair, his name was Sirius Black. The second black haired boy had glasses, his name was James Potter. The more polite boy was Remus Lupin. They all continued to talk.

"Hey how'd you guys meet" asked James

"Awe, I found Lucius picking on her this morning just before we left the station" Fayth sight

"He was being the average Slytherin, he called Lily a mudblood and that just ... well you know" she continued

"Lucius called her a mudblood, why'd he do that?" Sirius asked confused.

"Well she is muggle born yah know." Fayth said glaring at him

"Oh" he said grinning.

The rest of the train ride went pretty smooth. They played Exploding Snaps and as it turned out Lily, who had never played before, was very good. They played until the train came to a complete stop at a quaint little train station. A booming voice called out over the crowed. All the first years went towards the voice and looked up into the face of a giant.

"Hi Hagrid how are you" called Fayth waving at him.

"Ello Fayth, James, Sirius, Remus, ready for yer first year?" Hagrid asked.

"Yeah and this is Lily Evans, she's an M.B." whispered Fayth.

"Ello Lily, welcome to Hogwarts" Hagrid said to Lily.

Lily just nodded politely and followed everyone else. They could only fit five people in a boat. So Lily, Fayth, James, Sirius, and Remus all shared one boat. They moved across the lake in a synchronized motion. There were a lot of ohhhs and ahhhs and wows from the group. Suddenly a huge tentacool came out of the water and knocked Fayth into the water. Kids were gasping and crying and Lily was trying to find Fayth. Suddenly somthing burst out of the water. A huge bubble exploded and Fayth landed in the water once more. This time though she was swimming towards the shore. And she got there just as the first boat did. The kids in that boat got out and ran to help her. Besides being soaking wet and freezing cold, she was ok.

Lily, James, Sirius, Remus all hung back with Fayth as Hagrid lead the others up to the school. Lily pointed her finger at Fayth and suddenly Fayth was completely dry and had a different school robe on. Her hair was a little damp but she was ok. They ran up to the school just as the last few kids were running into the hall. They joined the group as they waited to be sorted.

In the front of the hall was a long table where all of the teachers were sitting. To the far left was a table adorned with yellow. To the far right was a table adorned in green. The red table was on the left and the blue table was on the right. There were kids sitting at each of the tables. Finally the lady at the front, Professor McGonagall, began talking.

"When I call your name, come up and I will place the hat on your head" she said

"Sirius Black!"

"Gryffindor"

"Lily Evans"

"Gryffindor"

"Alice French"

"Gryffindor"

"Fayth Hillman"

"Gryffindor"

"Frank Longbottom"

"Gryffindor"

"Remus Lupin"

"Gryffindor"

"James Potter"

"Gryffindor"

All seven of them sat down at the red table. To everyone's surprise and shock, Sirius Black and Fayth Hillman were in Gryffindor not Slytherin like the rest of their families. Amos Diggory, Amanda Warenden, Kamina Bryant, Josh Finch, and Eric Fletchly were sorted into Hufflepuff. Daniel Chang, Mari Lee, Matt Patil, Lauren Camas, and Danny Boot were the Ravenclaw first years. Narcissa Black, Bellatrix Black, Raphael Lestrange, Cleo Windly, and Servus Snape were all first years in Slytherin.

The feast finished rather dramatically and then they went to bed. This first year would be the beginning of seven, that nobody would forget but Fayth and Lily were going to get it all on a magic video. Starting with the the girls in the first years dorm.

Lily had the bed closest to the bathroom. Fayth had the bed closest to the door. Alice had the middle bed. Another muggle born girl named Stacy Lewis was between Fayth and Alice. The girl between Alice and Lily was a pureblood living with a squib family. Her name was Rachael King. The five girls stayed up all night talking about their families. Tomorrow was Saturday so they could sleep in as long as they wanted.
