" Wicked!" said Fred. Closing his trunk with a snap frightening Lee and his
owl.
They walked out onto the platform and gazed around at the students.
" Firs' years. Firs' years. This way please." Fred elbowed George and Lee, pointing toward the voice that spoke. A tall and very large man with a bushy black beard and bushy hair waved around for all the first years. Fred, George, and Lee followed the man that Fred heard people call, " Hagrid." He led them to a lake with at least a dozen boats floating near the shore.
" Alrigh' everyone. Four ter a boat. And follow me." Fred, Lee, and George all got into a boat with a first year girl. Her name was Angelina Johnson. She had long black hair, plaited, and brown eyes that shone in the moonlight. Fred couldn't keep his eyes off her. She smiled at them all and they began to row toward the castle, Fred still staring. George elbowed Lee and pointed to Fred. They laughed silently, but neither Angelina nor Fred had noticed. When they had reached a small tunnel and a small flight of steps Hagrid led them up to a large oak door where he knocked three times. The doors opened slowly and behind it appeared a very stern, and old looking witch. Fred and George knew her as McGonagall. Head of Gryffindor house, and Deputy head mistress. She was also the Transfiguration teacher and Charlie, the twin's older brother, had warned them to steer clear of her.
" Welcome to Hogwarts." She said to the first years. " Follow me." Fred and George looked at each other the decided that if they were to cause trouble, it wouldn't be under her nose. Lee seemed to be thinking along the same lines as Fred and George. " Now you before past through these doors." She said walking up toward a pair of large oak doors. " There are a few things you need to know. You will pass through the doors and be sorted into your houses. They are Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, and Slytherin. Now your house will be like your family. Triumphs will earn points, and any rule breaking, and you will lose points. At the end of the year the house with most points will be awarded the house cup. Does everyone understand?" they all nodded, and she led them through the doors into what Fred and George knew as the Great Hall. The ceiling was bewitched to look like the sky outside, (dull grayish black) and there were candles floating aimlessly around the ceiling. Fred looked sideways at Angelina. She was very nervous. After a girl with blonde and curly hair named Katie Bell was sorted into Gryffindor, and a brown-headed girl was sorted into Slytherin it was Angelina's turn. She walked nervously up to the sorting hat, and placed it on her head, waiting. The hat stood still for a moment before shouting at the top of its lungs "GRYFFINDOR!" Fred and George cheered the most out of the rest of the Gryffindors. Fred cheered the most among those who knew Angelina. George could tell that Fred really like Angelina, but didn't pursue the subject because George heard Lee's name called. Lee walked slowly toward the stool where the awaiting sorting hat stood. He placed it on his head and waited. George and Fred waited with bated breath. " GRYFFINDOR!" the hat shouted and they all clapped loudly. Fred saw that Percy was welcoming every new Gryffindor first year, and he rolled his eyes. Fred and George waited as the line whittled down to nothing. Another girl with blonde hair waddled up to hat. Alicia spinet was her name. She too was sorted into Gryffindor. As soon as Fred, and George were next George turned to Fred, and said,
" Now's our chance to show the school how funny we are." He looked up at McGonagall, and saw her stern eye move toward the small boy that was walking up to the stool. " You have to do something about this sorting it's so very boring." Fred nodded a his name was called, and he called slowly up to the hat, then he fell. Everyone laughed, as Fred got up in a dramatic sort of way. Even McGonagall had to stifle a snigger. Fred picked up the hat, and threw it into the air. It slowly floated down onto his head, and everyone clapped at this trick. Fred sat down, and listened intently as the hat spoke in his ear, " Another Weasley? You seem like the funny one in the family." It said, moving slightly. " Unless you're brother has a few tricks up his sleeve." Fred smirked, and looked around at George. The hat had come to a decision, an shouted,
" GRYFFINDOR!" The Gryffindor table began to pound on the table in rhythm shouting, " Weasley Weasley!" It stopped immediately when George's name was called. George clambered up to hat and knocked the stool over. He then had caused the hat to soar into hands. Dumbledore even laughed this time. George then placed the hat on his head while standing. The hat had shouted Gryffindor so quickly that he didn't even have to pick up the stool. He then back flipped toward he Gryffindor table still wearing the sorting hat. Everyone laughed again, as they watched him toss the hat to McGonagall. It landed on the stool as she picked it up, and carried it away. Everyone clapped toward the Weasley twins. Even Charlie, Bill, and Percy, their older brothers. Dumbledore rose to speak.
" Thank you young weasleys for that lovely piece of entertainment. Wee really needed it. Now before we eat I want you all to know that the forest is out-of-bounds to all, and that Mr. Filch has a few more items that are not allowed in the corridors or classrooms. For the full details see Mr. Filch. Now. Tuck in." He sat down and began talking to McGonagall. Fred, and George ate so very much that they felt they were going to burst. It was the very first time that they had had so very much fun in their lives. Unless they counted the time they bewitched their Mother's cauldron to spill food all over their older brother Percy. Which, Fred, and George still remembered they had got whacked with her broom very well that day.
