Chapter 3

When the never-ending line of children got to the front of the hall, the sorting had opened its mouth, but instead of its usual song it said just 3 words. Welcome. Casey. Johnson. As he finished professor McGonnagle walked to the front and faced the students. She unrolled her list of names, and boomed out "Johnson, Casey". The girl walked to the front and placed to hat on her head.

"Very tricky. Very tricky. You have a sharp brain, but you have overcome great obstacles with bravery, also slitheryn may help you in your quest. You choose which will best suit you,

Ravenclaw, full of young witches and wizards with great minds, Gryffindor, full of the loyal and brave or slitheryn full of those who seek power above all.

Casey quickly scanned the hall and then she spotted him. The boy who lived.

"I choose Gryffindor."

The school erupted with applause, and Casey took her place in-between Padma and Hermione.

There was an uneasy silence for a few moments until Casey giggled and said. "How embarrassing was that! How could you of done that when you were little!" And for the rest of the sorting the 3 girls were talking about how they would have felt if they were in Casey's shoes.

When the sorting had finished Dumbledore rose again, but this time the only reason for this was to conjurer up the food from the kitchens below. Every one now was talking to Casey. Every eye was on her and she looked as though she was loving it.

"We thought you were going to be like Hermione, if you get what I mean." Said Ron. who got a sharp kick in the knee from Casey, "oi she's really been really nice to me so watch your tongue!" She shouted. In that sentence all the girls who had wanted to kill her for saying, the reason my skirt is so short is because anything bigger just falls of me because my waist is so small, now wanted to hug her for sticking up to Ron instead of flirting with him. Then Draco Malfoy walked over to the table.
