Year One
~*~Chapter Two~*~
Story Told by: Remus Lupin
The hat opened it's slit, which was used for a mouth and it started to sing.
Here in Hogwarts, you'll find the Houses of four!
Created years before the Headmaster, Albus Dumbldore!
These four wizards were the greatest yet of their time!
They even made this smart hat, me, know how to rhyhm!
First is Godric Gryffindor, the bravest of the rest!
Being put in this House is a test!
Next is Salazar Slytherin, the most cleverest of all!
The students in his House never stall!
Then, there is Hufflepuff, a very loyal bunch!
They never let their friends down, they are never late for lunch!
Last but not least, is Ravenclaw, the smart ones!
They past the test, they are the wise ones!
So put me on, I'll read your mind!
I'll put you in the right House you'll find!
"So we just have to try on a hat!"James said.
"And Dad was going on about racing Unicorns!"Sirius said.
McGonagall unrolled a peice of parchment and started calling of names. She reached Sirius, who became a Gryffindor. After about five names, my name was called. I walked up to the stool and put on the hat.
"Hmmmmmmmm....tough choice,"the hat muttered in my ear."You'd do good in all of the Houses....Got characteristics of all of them. Even Slytherin."
"Please not Slytherin!"I thought.
"Ah, but Slytherin was going to be my second recommendation! My first is GRYFFINDOR!"
I took off the hat and ran over to the Gryffindor table, joining Sirius. Then, James's name was called. He was named a Gryffindor before the hat barely touched his head. He ran over to join me and Sirius. Sirius grined and high-fived James.
Then, Peter Pettigrew was called. He was named a Gryffindor after two minutes of sitting. Finally, Snape was called. It only took a second for the hat to decide that he was a Slytherin.
After Hannah Wittany was called("HUFFLEPUFF!"), everyone was seated.
Dumbledore stood up by the staff table and cleared his throat then spoke.
"Welcome to another year of Hogwarts!"he said."I just would like to say that the Forbidden Forest is out-of-bounds like it has been for the previous Headmaster! If you want to try out for the Quidditch team, see Madam Hooch! And Apollyon Pringle reminded me to tell you all that you are not allowed to use magic in the corridors! That is all!"
The table in front of us filled with food with a pop! I started loading my plate when I heard McGongall call my name. She motioned to me and I followed her out of the Great Hall. She led me to what I guessed was her office and she motioned for me to sit down. I sat. Was I in trouble already? I didn't do anything wrong, I know that.
McGonagall sat in a seat behind her desk and said,"Dumbledore put up safety cautions for when you....transform. In two weeks from now,you will be led outside by Madam Hooch. There is a tree outside called the Whomping Willow.Madam Hooch will take you into a secret passage that is covered by the Whomping Willow where you will transform and hurt no one. Got that?"
I nodded and she continued,"You should be grateful that Dumbledore let you come to Hogwarts. That is all. You may rejoin the feast."
I sat up and left without another word. At the feast, Sirius and James asked me what happened, but I made up an excuse that they bought. When the feast was over, we were led to our Common room by a Prefect. The password was boggarts. We went into our Dormitories. The boys and girls had separate ones.
It didn't take me long to fall asleep. Before I could say another word to Sirius and James, I was asleep....
~*~
I awoke with a start when Sirius and James started shaking me. They were grinning widely and I knew they were up to something. I followed James and Sirius after getting dressed. They went to the Common Room.
"We put exploding pillows on the seats,"Sirius said, nodding towards the chairs."When someone sits on the chairs, it will explode on them."
"Thought we'd tell you,"James said, grinning. Just then, Peter Pettigrew walked lazily out of the boys' dormitory. He yawned a hello and went to sit on a nearby chair.We watched Peter eagerly.When he sat in the chair, I heard a pop! and Peter flew out of his chair.
His yelps woke up all of the dormitories, but we were laughing too hard to care.People came streaming into the dormitory.There were more pop!s as people either leaned on the chairs or sat in them.Peter's face was getting red from embarrassment, although no one knew it was he who caused the commotion.
Everyone excpet me, Sirius, James, and Peter went back up to their dormitories.About a second later, people came streaming back down.I guess they had just realized that it was 7:00 in the morning.
We went down to the Great Hall with Peter tagging along.I don't know why he was following us.I'd be mad if someone did something like putting an exploding pillow in my armchair to me.But, he tried to make a conversation with us.
We left breakfast early to get a headstart to our first class, Transfiguration.It was a good thing we did leave early, because right when we sat down, the bell rang.We had class with the Hufflepuffs.McGonagall gave us all matches and told us to turn them into needles.
In the end, the only people who got out matches into naeedles were me, James, and Sirius.McGonagall was scolding Peter for his needle just being a small peice of sharp wood when the bell rang.
We went down to Charms, which was taught by a witch named Ginny Genia.Genia put us into groups and we practiced levitating.
"Wingaaaardium Leviosa!"James said, managing to lift the parchment Genia gave us.Sirius lifted the parchment, too.Then me.Peter accidently made Genia levitated in the air when he tried to levitate the parchment.
At the end, we had lunch.The Great Hall was very noisy.We had lunch then went to Double Herbiology.We had it with the Slytherins.The professor, Anderson Carma, took us outside.There were greenhouses lined up.Carma took us to Greenhouse One.
We started repotting these biting herbs when I saw something red whizzing around the Green house.I immediatly knew it was a Filibuster Firework.It then exploded, sending a shower of sparks.
Carma seemed to be exploding more than the firework because he shouted,"IF I CATCH THE PERSON WHO DID THIS, I'LL MAKE SURE THEY GET EXPELLED!"while trying to put a flame out of a herb.
Before Carma could blame anyone for the incident, we heard the distant bell ring.Everyone crowded out of the Greenhouse towards the castle.We went to the nearest bathroom trying to get the dirt smell out of our robes.
You couldn't say the first day of Hogwarts wasn't interesting although it ended fast.Pretty soon, it was dinner.Dumbledore looked pleased to see everyone chow down on their food.
I looked down at my schedule to see what I had for tomorrow.First is Defense Against the Dark Arts, then Transfiguration, lunch, and last is Double Potions.I was happy to find out that James and Sirius had the same
schedule as me.
Before we could get up from our table to go to our dormitories, Snape approached us with a taller boy with a pale, sneering face.
"This is Lucius Malfoy, a seventh year,"Snape said carelessly."His father is friends with my father."
While Malfoy glared at James, Sirius snuck behind him, did something, then sat down by me, grinning at James and me.I grinned back while James's eyes were locked onto Snape's, both of them glaring at each other.
The silence was then broke by Malfoy's yelps.There was the same BOOM! I heard on the train.Sirius had put a Filibuster Firework on Malfoy's robes.He truned around and looked at his back.There was a burnt spot and a small hole were parts of a green shirt was noticable.
The Gryffindor table roared with laughter while the Slytherins hissed and booed.Getting red, Malfoy turned sideways and I saw another Filibuster Firework in his pocket.So, he came here to put a Filibuster Firework on James!
When Malfoy wasn't looking, I ignited the Filibuster Firework with the tip of my wand and another BOOM! was heard.Getting totally embarrassed, Malfoy walked up a staircase to where, I guessed, his Common Room was.
The Gryffindor table was still roaring with laughter.James shook my hand, Sirius shaking the other.The Slytherin table kept hissing and booing.Snape, angry, stroded to the Slytherin table.

Can't say it wasn't exciting.I decided to end this chapter with a couple of bangs!!Te hee hee!
