Hi, My name is Layla Banks I'm fourteen years old, I have brown straight hair with chocolate brown eyes. Yeah I know Adam is my cousin, don't get me wrong it's not that I hate him or anything but he can be annoying sometimes. I live with him and My uncle, I play hockey just for fun though not like Adam. He plays for the Ducks which I think is cool, They used to be team USA but changed back to the Ducks. See me and the team got accepted into a school called Hogwarts, because secretly were all witch's and wizards. SHH I promised Adam I wouldn't tell, I guess I never figured we would be ALL sent to England. I mean really the WHOLE team is here…..well not the people who quit just Charlie, Dwayne, Kenny, Connie, Julie, Fulton, Dean, Russ, Averman, Guy, Goldberg and Luis. Right now were riding on the train to go Hogwarts. Apparently we were three years late because of hockey so it was our fourth year.

" Hey Layla" I turned to see Averman staring at me

" Yeah?" I sighed, here comes a corny joke.

" Do you know where Dean and Fulton are?" I stared at him shocked, He always teased me.

" I'll go find them" I stood up, I sat next to Luis and Connie. Averman sat with Guy and Charlie.

I walked next door and saw Russ, Julie, Dwayne, Kenny and Adam all sitting down talking. I opened the door and popped my head in.

" Have you guys seen the Bash Brothers?" I asked

They all shook their heads no " I thought they were with ya'll" Dwayne said standing up " I'll help ya look for 'em"

I smiled " Thanks"

Me and Dwayne walked down the small hallway and we heard a familiar voice "Portman check it out" We turned and saw them kneeling down beside a trolley cart with loads of candy. Me and Dwayne snuck up behind them as they started putting candy in their pockets.

" It's not nice to take things without paying" I whispered

They both jumped, I smiled noticing the whole team was wearing their Ducks jerseys. I was just wearing Jeans and Adams old team USA jacket, I smirked as Portman shot me an evil look as he put the candy back.

" Come on we better get back" I said as the boys followed me.

We all walked back to our booths and I told them I would go take a walk and they all mumbled in agreement.

I turned the corner and bumped into someone.

" Watch out " I looked up and saw a guy about my age with blonde hair and grey eyes.

" Sorry" I smiled

He scanned my body quickly before meeting my eyes " Stupid American" He sneered before pushing me out of the way and kept on walking down the hall. He bumped into a red haired boy with a green-sweater with a big "R" on it.

" Watch it Malfoy" He hissed

" Shut it weasel" The guy I'm guessing was Malfoy shot back.

A girl with light brown hair stood behind him, along with a boy with black hair and glasses.

He stood infront of me " What are you looking at?"

" Ronald! Honestly you should at least try and act civilized and one might want to make a conversation with you!" She said sighing " Sorry about him, I'm Hermione Granger and this is Harry Potter and Ronald Weasley ."

I smiled " It's alright I'm Layla Banks. Who was that?" I said pointing to the blonde boy.

She rolled her eyes " Draco Malfoy." She said the name in disgust.

" Yeah He isn't very nice, You might want to stay away from him" Harry said scratching his forehead.

" Are you American?" Hermione asked

I nodded " Me and my friends kinda got our letters three years late" I sighed

" Oh well I guess there aren't a lot of wizards there huh?" Ron asked

I nodded " Guess so"

Hermione smiled " I think we should be arriving soon, you better get back"

I nodded and waved as I walked back to the booth.

" So have fun?" Luis asked

I smiled " I guess"

I sat down as the train came to a stop and a booming voice called " First years this way! Don't be shy first years!"

We all stepped out of the booths and grabbed out wands, Mine was 12 inches made from Cherry wood with a mermaids hair in its core I grabbed my backpack, We strapped on our skates and walked out. I was surprised that no one was in sight.

" Okay looks like were late. Come on guys I think its this way." Charlie said going to a worn out looking path.

We reached a boat and half climbed in, I jumped as it began to magically move itself.

We all skated inside and I groaned as a large stair case led to a giant doorway.

" I think that's where were supposed to go" Adam smiled

We all walked up the stairs and I smiled at Adam.

I skated at the back with Dean and Fulton as we skated through the doors.

Seven table were set up in the room, Six with all students. Four were all wearing robes and one with fur coats which looked like all boys, the other with all girls in blue dresses.

" Luis slow down" I heard from the front and then a crash

" What happened?" I asked

I smiled and skated ahead to the team. We head someone clear their throat.

I turned to see a woman in all black holding an old hat.

" You must be the Ducks" She sighed

We all nodded.

" I will call your name and your will be sorted into your house." She sighed

" Charlie Conway" Charlie stood up and sat down on a stool infront of her

She put it on his head and it began to talk " Ahh an American this will be a first, Right, Hmmmmmm. SLYTHERIN!"

There was light clapping from the last table in the corner.

" Luis Mendoza"

He sat down on the stool " Mhhh Right, Gryffindor!"

And it went so on for the whole team.

Gryffindor: Luis, Me , Dwayne, Connie and the Bash brothers.

Ravenclaw: Russ, Goldberg, Julie and Kenny

Hufflepuff: Adam, Averman and Guy.

Slytherin: Charlie…

We all ate and were making friends but everyone would peek at a teammate.

Later we found out the other schools was a place called Drumstring and Beaubattons Two other wizard schools. That and there was something called the Tri-wizard tournament going on.
