Chapter 1: Hogwarts

Lilly's feet hit the ground very hard, very suddenly, and she fell over, out of the fireplace, into a girl who had obviously been waiting for her by the fire. Both girls fell over, and Lilly quickly jumped up and helped the other girl to her feet.

"I'm so sorry!" Lilly said worriedly.

"Oh, it's fine. I should know better than to stand next to the fire when somebody's fluing in for the first time!" The girl laughed. Lilly smiled.

"Lilly Evans," she said. "I'm new"

"Mariah Quinn," the girl said. "I'm supposed to help you get used to the school and help you catch up to everybody else."

"Cool! Could you show me where I'm going to be sleeping then, because my arm's about to fall off, this suitcase must be 20 pounds!" The girls laughed, then Mariah took out her wand and clearly said a spell, that Lilly didn't catch any of, and Lilly suitcase was floating about 3 feet away from the tip of Mariah's wand. Lilly's eyes widened and she silently wondered how on earth she'd memorize spells like that.

"Once Dumbledore comes. He'll probably wanna talk to us or something."

As if one cue Dumbledore's feet hit the ground of the fireplace gracefully, and the girls turned to look at him.

"I think you girls understand what we want of you. Today will be specifically for learning about the castle, and getting everything you will need. You will start learning magic first thing tomorrow morning. Do you have any questions, Lilly?"

"No Sir." Lilly said immediately, but she then remembered her promise to Chelsea, and said "Oh, yes, I do actually. Do you know how I could keep contact with everybody? You know, from back home?" Dumbledore smiled and said,

"Of coarse. We use owls, because no forms of muggle communication work here. Because you told your friends Chelsea about the magic world, we can give her and your parents an owl, and of coarse, yourself, though the school provides owls for students who don't have one. Somebody will get them to you by tonight and you can deal with that later. We have a selection of wands in the Defense Against Dark Arts classroom, and robes in your dorm. Mariah has brought her supplies from previous years that are in your dorm, and we have provided you with supplies for this year, that are also in your dorm. If there are no other questions, then we can go and see which wand is best for you."

"Just one more question," Lilly said. "Why are you giving me a robe? I mean I've heard of colleges giving their students a t-shirt or a sweater or something with the school logo on it, but a robe?" Dumbledore's eyes twinkled with laughter, then said,

"It's like a uniform. You'll understand when you see them." Lilly's heart sank. A uniform? 'And I thought things couldn't get any worse,' She thought. Upon seeing Lilly's unhappy look, Dumbledore said,

"You won't have to wear it until the school year starts." That didn't help too much, but it was better than nothing. Dumbledore then said,

"You will be in the same house as Mariah, because that'll make things easier before and after school starts. Mariah is in Gryffindor, so now, you are too. Let's go get you your wand, so you will have time to get used to the grounds. Follow me." They all then got up and walked out of Dumbledore's large office. Outside of his office was a flight of stairs, then a small room and a doorway guarded by two statues. The statues moved aside and they walked by. Now that Lilly could see it, she could tell that Hogwarts was huge.

"What the hell?!" Lilly exclaimed when she saw the staircases moving. Dumbledore and Mariah laughed and then they told her that the stairs like to move. She was pretty shocked, but was sure that after today nothing would surprise her again. They waked down many halls and went on many flights of stars before they finally stopped outside of a classroom. Dumbledore opened the door and inside there was an elderly man sitting next to several boxes, which she assumed, contained wands. They spent about an hour trying out wands for Lilly, until at almost the last wand, Lilly swished it and the man gave her a crooked smile and said,

"Perfect." Lilly smiled back and practically skipped out the door to where Mariah was waiting outside. She looked extremely bored.

"About time!" Mariah mumbled and the girls laughed.

"Sorry about how long that took."

"It's fine! I just wish I'd brought something with me to eat. I'm starving! Would you mind if we stopped at the kitchen really quickly and got something to eat?"

"No, not at all! What are we gonna do after that, though?"

"Probably I'll just show you the common room and the dorms, then you should read Hogwarts, A History. It'll help you understand the school a WHOLE lot better. Then I'll show you around tomorrow after lessons. It's a pretty big book though, I must warn you. Oh, and just so you're not surprised, the 'people' that work in the kitchens are house elves. They look kinda weird, and are VERY happy to help you and serve you. Just thought I'd warn you."

"Okay," Lilly said just as they stopped in front of a picture of a bowl of fruit. Mariah tickled the pear and the portrait moved to the side revealing a very large, very busy kitchen. Short things that Mariah had called house elves were everywhere, and as soon as the portrait had moved to the side, about ten of them came running foreword and asked them if they needed anything. Mariah asked them for a few very odd things for herself, and got a couple of things for Lilly, as well. When the house elves scurried away to fulfill their orders, Mariah turned to Lilly and gave her an apologetic smile.

"I'd get you some Butterbeer, but the Mauraders would about have my head for giving you your first sip of it."

"Who are the Mauraders?" Lilly asked curiously.

"In exception to Peter, they're the hottest guys at the school and they also love playing pranks. They'd hate it if I gave you Butterbeer, because it's so good and they'd likely prefer themselves be the ones to give you it, because you're so pretty and all."

"Thanks!"

"No problem."

When Mariah mentioned Lilly's looks, it was the first time Lilly had thought about her appearance, or other people's appearances. Lilly looked at Mariah; she wasn't a bad looking girl. She actually was quite pretty. She had dark eyes and dark brown hair that went past her shoulders. She had a small, pretty body, and a nice smile. She was no Lilly, but she was definitely pretty. When the girls had eaten all that they could they gathered a little bit of sweets for later that night, and left. When they reached the top of a flight f stairs, there was a portrait hole, with a picture of a fat lady in a pink dress. Mariah looked t her and said hello. There was no password because school hadn't started yet, so the fat lady opened the portrait hole and allowed the girls to pass. They entered a large room that Mariah called the Gryffindor Common Room. There was a large fire with several couches and chairs around it and a rug with a picture of a rearing lion. There were tables with several chairs around them farther away from the fire. Mariah pointed to a staircase that led up to a door.

"That's the boys dorm," she then pointed to another staircase that leaded to another door and said that it was the girls dorm.

"The boys can't get into the girls dorm," Mariah began, "the girls can get into the boys dorms though. I don't think that Godrick Gryffindor really trusted the boys. You'll understand who Gryffindor is once you read the book." She then began to lead the way up to the girl's dormitory. She showed her where the 7th years slept and pointed to Lilly's bed. "There's a book on the bed that you should start reading now. The bathroom's right there and u can call me if you need me. I'll show you around a bit better tomorrow. Try to read as much of that book as you can. It really will help. Night!" she said, and turned around and left the room. Lilly looked around and saw that all of her things were already there. She changed into pajamas and moved the curtains on the bed to the side and saw a very large book sitting in the middle of the bed. Lilly groaned.

'I have a lot of reading ahead of me' she thought and climbed into bed with the book.

Sorry that it wasn't that long/good. It's just a transition from the muggle world to the wizarding world. I was going to attempt to write about her going around the castle and stuff but I figured it'd be too hard because she doesn't understand anything that goes on in Hogwarts, so she's reading Hogwarts A History instead. So I've got two options for you guys to tell me what you think I should do next whichever is most popular, I'll go with. Should I skip most of the summer and just go to when school starts and Lilly meets James and everybody and it'll probably be more entertaining and it'll probably bring out the characters better, or, should I continue on and write about the summer? Let me know in reviews! Once again sorry about this chapter, I'll probably go back and fix it later on. The chapters to come will be better!! Review still though! Thanks!
