((Yes, I still don't own Harry Potter characters, etc. I still own and any original characters- so DON'T steal them!! Also, the character Hannah Potter belongs to Lion-like Patronus))
Ring, ring, ring, ring…
"Huh?" Bree murmured and she opened her eyes.
"Oh just the clock." Bree said and then it hit her square in the face: I'm going to Hogwarts today.
She bolted out of bed and got dressed. She put on her robes again and admired them. She flipped through her books. She brushed out her hair many times just in case any boys might take a liking to her. She ran down the stairs.
"Hey honey! I've got a little surprise for you!" Ron said and pulled the cover off a bird cage. Inside was snowy owl, just like the one her Uncle Harry used to have.
"Oh wow… She's beautiful dad, mom! Thank you so much!" Bree said and hugged her mother and father.
"It was the least we could do for you Bree. Have you got any name ideas?" Ron said.
"Yeah, dad. She looks like a Luna. I think that's a fine name if you'd ask me." Bree said and stuck her fingers in cage.
"I like it too Bree. Now eat up! We have to be at the train station in 45 minutes." Hermione said and passed her a plate.

"You mean I have to run through THAT?" a girl said with brown hair and a splashy blue Muggle sweatshirt said.
"Yeah. That's about it. Wait here comes Bree, Nikki!!" Hannah said.
"Hey Hannah. Who's this?" Bree asked.
"Oh this is my Muggle-born friend Nikki. She's going to Hogwarts too!" Hannah said.
"Hi Nikki, I'm Bree."
"Hi!! Whatsup?!?!" Nikki said.
"She had a lot of sugar today." Hannah said.
"I see. Nikki, just run through the barrier. It won't hurt you." Bree said and Nikki ran through. Bree followed and finally Hannah and all the parents.
"Now Brian, I want you to be good. Don't get detention, you hear me?" Neville Longbottom said, and patted his son on the head.
"And watch out for the nargles! Nasty little creatures, those things." Luna Lovegood (now Luna Longbottom, being married to Neville) said and handed a suitcase to her son.
"I'll be all right, mom, dad! Don't worry about me. Now, I've got to get on the train, I love you." Brian said, and kissed his mother and father and ran off.
As he ran, he tripped, and landed in front of 3 girls. One had me most beautiful orange hair and green eyes, one was a dirty blond and had blue eyes, and one was moving so fast he couldn't make her out.
"Oh my Merlin! So sorry!" Brian said and started to collect his things.
"It's not your fault. Trust me, if we blamed my friend Hannah over here for all her explosion mishaps she'd be in Azkaban by now. I'm Bree by the way. That's Hannah, the dirty blond one, and NIKKI STOP MOVING!"
Nikki stopped and looked around.
"Yeah, that's Nikki. She's a BIT hyper today." Bree said.
"Oh, yeah. I'm Brian Longbottom. You can just call me Longbottom if you'd prefer." Brian said, and blushing, stuck out his hand.
"Nice to meet you." Said Hannah, and she shook his hand.

They were all seated in a compartment now, and Zeo had finally arrived, and Bree was now jabbering about Quidditch.
"No, Hannah! There are NOT 3 seekers on a regular team! Who told you that?" Bree answered.
Brian just stared out the window watching the moving scenery as it passed.
"What house do you guys want to be on? I want to be on Ravenclaw." Zeo said.
"I want to be on Gryffindor!" Bree exclaimed.
"Ditto." Hannah said.
"Huh- what?" Brian said.
"Never mind…" Bree said and sighed.

Hours later they arrived at Hogwarts and they walked off the train.
"First 'ears over 'ere!" a very old Hagrid yelled.
Many first years collected over to Hagrid and finally they got going.
"Where are we going?" Brian asked Bree.
"No idea." Bree replied.
After what seemed like hours of walking, they reached a row of boats.
"Get yerselfs in there!" Hagrid yelled and all the first years climbed into the boats.
Soon after, they arrived at Hogwarts and proceeded inside. All the students were just so amazed at the size of the school.
Next up was Professor McGonagall's speech about houses and points and so on.
"We are ready for you." Professor McGonagall said and led them into an extremely large room filled with students of all ages sitting at 4 different tables.
"Stand here and stay quiet." Professor McGonagall whispered, and she stepped up to the teacher's table and gave her 'Headmistress' speech.
The sorting then began. McGonagall called many names before calling any of the 5 friends' names. Finally, she did.
"Ryan, Nikki!" She called and Nikki walked up to the hat nervously.
"HUFFLEPUFF!" It screamed, and Nikki walked to the Hufflepuff table.
"Weasley, Zeo!" McGonagall called and Zeo walked up.
"Hmm… A Weasley, eh? How 'bout RAVENCLAW!" The hat screamed and Zeo sighed with relief.
"Potter, Hannah!" McGonagall boomed.
"Oh a Potter? My, my! I remember sorting your mother and your father. Your father was a great man, you know? Hmm… Better be GRYFFINDOR!" The hat screamed and Hannah ran towards a table.
Many more names were called until only Bree remained. Brian had been sorted too, ending up in Gryffindor.
"Weasley, Bree!" McGonagall boomed.
"ANOTHER Weasley, eh? Your mother is Hermione Granger, right?" The hat asked.
"Yes and my father is Ronald Weasley." Bree replied quietly.
"Yes, of course. Now, let's see where we're going to place you. You should be a GRYFFINDOR!" The hat yelled and the Gryffindor table clapped wildly.
The feast was most delicious. Bree ate until she was stuffed and then followed the prefects upstairs. She found her bed, changed into her pajamas, and laid down. Today had just been the most wonderful day of her entire life.
