Chapter 2
The Sorting Hat Ceremony

As Lily, Rose, & Melissa went in they saw were amazed by the alive paintings, bewitched sky, and all the other unique things. Meanwhile, a lady who had her hair tied in a bun & was pretty skinny came & said "I am deputy headmistress, Professor McGonagall; your Sorting Hat Ceremony will begin in approximately 10 minutes." With that she left.

Then, the three girls saw a boy named Lucious Malfoy. He had sleek, blonde hair & blue eyes; he was making fun of something called mudbloods. Lily turned to Melissa & asked her what mudbloods were. Of course, after Lily found out what they were, she got very furious & glared at Malfoy; he looked at her & continued making fun of them. Lily finally had a chance to speak "Shut up, you..you..pureblood!!" Lucious & his friends burst out laughing; "Oh, so a mudblood, as in you, is telling me to shut up!! Lily felt like screaming, although she managed to say "My name is Lily Evans & I prefer you call me that!! Suddenly, when Malfoy was about to say something (obviously mean) a boy with messy dark brown hair & hazel eyes came & said "You better shut up Malfoy, or you'll pay!!" Then, Malfoy said "Oh, look James Potter has a girlfriend, a muggle born one, that is!" Lily had, had enough, she lat out her temper at once "If you say anything else Malfoy, I swear!!!" Rose was about to say something but Professor McGonagall came "You will now be sorted into your houses. There are four of them: Gryffindor, Ravenclaw, Hufflepuff, & Slytherin. The sorting hat will sing it's song & tell you about the four houses." All the first years listened curiously to the hat. Afterwards, Professor McGonagall read names of first years to get sorted.

Meanwhile the three girls had learned that James' best friends were: Sirius Black, a black haired & brown eyed boy, there was Peter Pettigrew, a skinny, rather awkward looking boy, & last Remus Lupin, a boy with brown eyes & light brown hair. Anyway, most of the students who hadn't been called were either nervous or dead bored. Then Sirius was called, he was sorted into Gryffindor. After a lot of students, Evans, Lily was called. Nervously, Lily put on the sorting hat, it began to say; "hmm, I see courage & sacrifice. Oh my, you do get your temper raised easily. Ok, ok, I'll shut up sort you.Gryffindor!!" Lily was relieved. Unfortunately, Rose & Melissa were sorted into Ravenclaw. Remus Lupin was placed in Gryffindor, & following him was Malfoy who was placed in Slytherin.

Then what seemed like after ten names, Peter was sorted into Gryffindor too. After him, James was called. Lily was angry at James for interfering earlier, but she didn't say anything. James walked up to the hat and put it on. It began to say "I see bravery & courage. You're definitely going to be a trouble-maker along with Sirius. You would do well in Ravenclaw. Why it is your fist year & you like Lily Evans. She doesn't like you very much.what was that, I should be quiet & sort you fast or else. I'd like to ask or else what but lets have you in.Gryffindor!!" Sirius cheered & James walked happily & angrily to his table. He was happy to be placed in Gryffindor but angry at the sorting hat for saying so much. After the feast, everyone was full & tired. Lily went up to the Fat Lady and said the password "Honeydukes." She went to the girl's dormitory & took out her diary with the magical, violet cover, which she had bought from Diagon Alley.

September 1 Dear Diary,
Wow, Hogwarts is better than I imagined. I have been sorted into Gryffindor. Petunia is missing so much. Unfortunately, Rose & Melissa have been sorted into Ravenclaw. I am very sleepy right now. I will probably have a lot to right about tomorrow.
Sincerely,
Lily

Lily wrote that & went to sleep.
