Chapter 2 (Several Power outages and a hurricane later):

George looked up at Hogwarts. It was a large, wooden castle with a seemingly infinite number of windows. He tried to imagine the number of classrooms that could fit in a school that large. He couldn't. George could see himself getting very lost, very quickly.

"First years, over here!" he heard a voice call out. The voice belonged to a short man about twenty feet away from George.

As George came closer, he saw that the man was standing in front of a lake full of boats.

"What are you waiting for? Get in!" George jumped as he realized the man was talking to him. He climbed into one of the boats just as they started moving.

As the first years approached the opposite shore, a tall woman in black robes was waiting for them. She had black hair and a very stern expression.

They walked into the entrance hall with the woman, and she turned around to face them all.

"You are about to be sorted into your houses - Griffindor, Ravenclaw, Hufflepuff, and Slytherin. At Hogwarts, your house is like your family within the school."

The first years walked into the Great Hall. George was immediately aware of hundreds of people looking at him. He started to worry about the sorting. What if he turned out to be a Slytherin? Well, they really couldn't be as bad as the boys on the train had said. But there was another thing to worry about - what if he didn't get into any house? Could that happen?

"Harrison, George!" The black-robed woman who had led them in called out.

George walked very slowly to the front of the hall. The woman placed a very large, patched, and dirty hat on his head.

"Hmm. . . bravery. . . kindness. . . intelligence, certain types. . ."

Then the hat was silent. The silence seemed, to George, to last hours.

"RAVENCLAW!" George, feeling relieved, went off to sit with the other Ravenclaws.
