"First years over here!"

Hagrid was calling from the other side of the platform.

"Come on" (Hermione)

"Fred, George" (Harry)

"Let's go and talk to Hagrid" (Together)

"Sure, but" (Fred)

"Who is Hagrid?" (George)

"He is the"(Hermione)

"Person calling us"(Harry)

"He was the one"(Hermione)

"Who told us" (Harry)

"We are Magical"(Together)

They told the twins while walking.

"Hi Harry, Mione." Hagrid said "How was your ride? Who are these?" he asked them.

"The ride was fun" (Hermione)

"This is" (Harry)

"Fred"(Hermione)

"And George" (Harry)

"Weasly"(Hermione)

"Our friends" (Together)

"Well lets go, we don't want McGonagall to be angry that we are late." He told them.

"First years follow me, to the boats! Only four per boat!"

They got in a boat together and talked about which house they wanted to be in.

"Gryffindor or Ravenclaw" said Harry and Hermione together

"Gryffindor!" the Weasly twins told them.

"Well then we will hope for Gryffindor as well" the Potters wanted to be in the same house as their friends.

"We are almost there!" Hagrid yelled from the first boat.

They followed Hagrid up to the castle and up the stairs. Hagrid knocked on the big door and told a tall strict-looking teacher, whose name was McGonagall that they were there.

"I think we should try to annoy her right away" Hermione said.

What do you think, Harry? She asked her brother.

"I think it is a wonderful idea!" Fred told her.

"We should give her a nickname!" Harry said.

"How about Minnow? She is tall and thin." George suggested

"No, not good enough" Fred told him.

"What about Minnie?" Hermione liked her idea even more, the longer she thought about it.

"Sure, I like it!" Harry agreed with her.

"Me too!" Fred voiced his agreement.

"It's original." George told them.

"Let's start calling her that out loud the moment we see her again" they said together.

A small door opened and Mc…No, Minnie came in.

"Good evening. My name is Professor McGonagall."

"Good evening Minnie!" When McGonagall came in the quartet split up around the room, so when McGonagall started looking for whoever said that she only saw a lot of innocent looking first years among whom there were replicas of Lily and James Potter. She was immediately suspicious of them but had no proof.

"As I was saying there are four Houses…" McGonagall made a long speech about following rules and respecting teachers, as well as houses and house points.

"….Follow me"

They entered the great hall, and walked up to a stool with a Hat on it. The Hat sung a song about the four houses. Then students were called up and the Hat would call out their names.

Neville Longbottom- the boy that lost his toad - was sorted into Gryffindor.

Draco Malfoy- a mean looking blond kid -went into Slytherin with Crabbe and Goyle. They looked like trolls.

Then it was Harry's turn

"Potter Harry." As Harry moved forwards there were whispers that sounded like "boy who lived, savior, etc."

As the Hat was placed on his head Hermione almost jumped as the voice started talking about what house he should put Harry in.

"Gryffindor." Both Harry and Hermione answered at the same time.

The Hat yelled out Gryffindor and as Harry walked back he hugged Hermione who was called up next. There were also whispers going around the great Hall at her name.

The moment the Hat touched her head it yelled Gryffindor. She went right to the Gryffindor table where she sat down to wait for Fred and George.

When Fred and George finally were sorted into Gryffindor, they each took a table and started their spells. A couple of seconds after Dumbledore's speech someone suddenly yelled and after a couple of seconds everyone realized that their robes were no longer black, but in their house colors.

Then something else happened: there were suddenly letters appearing in thin air.

"I swear I am up to no good. Our names were Moony, Wormtail, Padfoot and Prongs. We were the Marauders. We would like to congratulate the new generation of pranksters at Hogwarts. We left this enchantment after our last feast in seventh year, so that at some point in many years. We would still be known. We hope that you keep pranking, you can use the group name Marauders, but come up with your own nick name unless you are one of our kids. Our real name were, in the same order as the nick name, Remus Lupin, Peter Pettigrew, Sirius Black and James Potter. Congratulations to those teachers that guessed that while we were in school, especially our favorite teacher McGonagall. To the new pranksters, try to get less detention then us. Mischief managed."

"Our father was a prankster?"

"COOL"

Dumbledore gave his speech about the forbidden forest and corridor and they were told to follow their perfects to their common room.

The new Marauders, they decided to use the name, agreed to meet in the common room after everyone went to bed.
