"Today is the day I go to Hogwarts!I quickly got dressed into this ( before_hogwarts/set?id=179147133)and came rushing down the stairs.
"Good morning dad."
"Good morning Amelia,are you ready for your big day!?"
"Yes I am can we go...Now!"
"Now,you know we have to wait for your sister than we can go and get your breakfast," Dad said while reading the daily prophet. Rachel than came running down in this ( rachels_before_hogwarts/set?id=179152486)
"Good morning everyone!" she said in a cheery tone.
"Good morning Rachel," Dad said."Ok girls" Dad put down the daily prophet. "Let's go to platform 9 and 3 quarters,"
"Yes!" I said happily.
TIME SKIP TO PLATFORM 9 3/4
"We're here! We're here!" I exclaimed.
"Ok now girls get your trolleys and go in between platform 9 and 10." Then a family with bright red hair and freckles came up. I knew they were the Weasleys. My dad knows their father and mother.
"Good day John," Mrs. Weasley gives him a smile that can only come from years of parenting.
"Good morning Molly," Dad returns the greeting with a less cheery grin. Dad never smiled much.
"Is Amelia going to Hogwarts this year? Ron's starting. Oh drat, you have something on your nose!'
"Mom!" Ron struggles to get away as his nose get wiped clean"
"Yes we just need to get our luggage on two trolleys and go to The Hogwarts express!" Dad said that with a chuckle, when Harry from Olivander's came up.
"Excuse me" Harry said quietly.
"Hello,Dear," said Mrs. Weasley politely replied. "Is this your first time Hogwarts? Amelia and Ron are new to." She said while pointing at me than Ron. He shyly waved at me while blushing.
"Looks like someone has an admirer," Rachel whispered in my ear.
"Hey he barely even knows me."
"Just wait until gets to know you" She muttered. She had always poked fun at me."
"Ok girls let's go now" Dad gives us a look that shows he heard our conversation.
"Alright dad." We then pushed are trolleys threw the portal.
TIME SKIP WHEN WE ARE ON THE HOGWARTS EXPRESS
"Come on sis let's go to the trolley" I exclaimed
"Maybe later. Unlike you, I actually ate some food," Rachel gives a smile.
"I guess I"ll go down there myself" I pouted and turned swiftly on my heel and headed down the hallway. I then ran into a boy with snowy white hair and pale green eyes.
"Watch were you are going Mudblood!" he spat in my face.
"I'm not a "mudblood" I'm a pureblood." I spat right back at him.
"The names Malfoy. Draco Malfoy."
"My names Amelia Emigh." I said cheerfully while sticking out my hand. He shook it.
"What house do you want to be in?"he asked.
"I don't know. But I hope Gryffindor cause my mom,dad,and sister where there!"
"I know I'm going to be in Slytherin. I know that for sure," Draco said after he snorted at me.
"Alright I better go back to my compartment bye." I said while walking down the hallway. When I got to my compartment, I saw Rachel in her robes.( rachels_after_hogwarts/set?id=179165186).
"Amelia go get into your robes. We're almost there," She said while never looking up from her book.
"Fine," I huffed. Not knowing that Draco sitting in the compartment across from mine. I then changed into my robes.( hogwarts/set?id=179143087). I heard talking so I went to go find it.
"Sunshine,Daisies,Butter mellow, turn this stupid fat rat yellow!" I looked down and saw a girl with big brown bushy hair peaking in through a compartment door. Once she left, I opened the door and then I saw who was in there. It was Ron and Harry!
"Hi boys! What did the girl want?" I ask curiously. She had poked her head in, but I didn't pay attention to what she was asking.
"Oh she just wanted to see if we knew were a kid's toad was,'' replied Harry.
"Oh" I said. "You guys better get changed into your robes. I have to go. Bye see you at Hogwarts."
"Bye" they both said together. I walked down back to my compartment, but before I could get back to the compartment the train stopped and everyone started to get out of were they were. Someone touched my shoulder, so I looked up and saw Rachel. She took me to Harry and Ron. Then I saw a giant man with a beard.
"Hi Hagrid."said Harry.
"Wow, that guy is huge." Rachel nudged me after I commented.
"Don't be so rude Amelia," She was scolding me in her weird way. The big man (Hagrid) started yelling.
"Firs' years follow me." I followed Hagrid with all of the other first years. The mob was hard to walk through, but somehow I managed to get through without falling on my face or getting run over. I got into a boat with Harry, Ron, and Hermione. The castle looked amazing form here! When we got there we all piled through a big door. I looked around in amazement. The bright stars seemed to gleam at me when looked upwards. Hagrid leaves us with a strict looking teacher.
"I'm Professor McGonagall. Come this way, and no rough housing," She set with a strict tone but an amused smile on her face. Strange combination. She led us through a door that put us in front of the crowd. I looked over at the tables. Each was decorated with the house colors. Then I saw my sister in the Gryffindor one. There was a hat with a mouth sitting on a stool. It started to sing:
"Oh,you may not think I'm pretty,
But don't judge on what you see,
I'll eat myself if you can find
A smarter hat than me.
You can keep your bowlers black,
Your top hats sleek and tall
For I am the Hogwarts Sorting Hat
And I cap them all.
There's nothing hidden in your head
The Sorting Hat can't see,
So try me on and I will tell you
Where you ought to be.
You might belong in Gryffindor,
Where dwell the brave at heart,
Their daring nerve and chivalry
Set Gryffindors apart.
You might belong in Hufflepuff
Where they are just and loyal
Those patient Hufflepuffs are true
And unafraid of toil
Or yet in wise old Ravenclaw
If you've a ready mind
Where those of wit and learning
Will always find their kind
Or perhaps in Slytherin
Is where you'll make your real friends
Those folk will use any means
To achieve their ends
So put me on! Don't be afraid!
And don't get in a flap
You're in safe hands (though I none)
For I'm a Thinking Cap!"
The Sorting Hat sang. Everyone clapped.
"Amelia Emigh" said McGonall. I hadn't paid attention to the other names being called. So, I was a bit surprised when got called. I walked up with a nervous smile on my face. I glance over to the Gryffindor table where I saw Rachel giving me the thumbs up from across the hall. I smile a little when I sit at the stool and the old hat is placed on my head
"Umm... Very outgoing,energetic,loyal very loyal. Shy around strangers. Can be selfish at times. Could make a good Hufflepuff. Doesn't like to study much. I guess I"ll put you in...GRYFFINDOR!" Everyone cheered, except for Slytherin of course After all the sorting was done we headed up to our common rooms, led by Percy, one of the Weasley's sons. As we go up, he shouted the occasional warning. I scanned around for Rachel, but she was chatting with one of her friends. When we get to the common room, I looked around. Red and gold decorate the room as a fire crackles merrily in the fireplace.
"Girls on the left, boys on the right. Trunks are in your room!" Rachel said with a shout.
"Hey, I'm the prefect!" Percy said, looking as if someone tried to deny him his birthright.
"Yeah, like I didn't hear you the 1st,"
"Or 2nd!" George had chimed in.
"Or 3rd," Fred joined in this time.
"Or the billionth,"
"Or-" George got interupted.
"Shut up, we get it already! And I didn't say it that many times!" Percy looks annoyed and huffs a little under his breath.
"Oh yeah, we forgot to mention the thousands of other times," Rachel said with a nod.
"You mean the trillions we didn't mention?" Fred said with a cheeky grin.
"Can you stop already?" Percy said this an eye roll.
"Let," That was George.
"Me," That time it was Fred.
"Think," Rachel finished.
"NO!" They said in unison before Percy gave up and marched to the boys dormitory. I laughed. It was going to be an exciting year.
