Ok, so I believe I left you guyspeople on a cliffhanger when someone grabs her shoulder, correct? Ok, well here we GO……..…
As they arrive at the Hogwarts Station, a hand grabs Julia's shoulder, she turns around to see… a huge figure standing behind her!
"Hey Hagrid!" cries Ron
"Hello there Ron, Hermione, Harry," says the giant figure "If yer don't mind, I half to be takin' the first years and Julia Lokken on the boats. I just gotta find her…"
"Did some one say my name?" Julia asks
"Yeah," says Harry "Hagrid needs to take you on the boats to get sorted into your house"
"My… house?"
"There's Gyffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, and Slytherin" says Ron
"Yeah you'll see." says Hermione
"But how do I-"
"You'll see Jules. (that's what they started callincalling you on the train)" say Harry putting an arm around her.
"C'mon now Julia, we gotta get goin'" says Hagrid
"Ok, Seesee you guys later!" she says, secretly not wanting to let go of Harry.
Hagrid ushers her and about 100 other new students towards a lake with boats on it. Julia gets into one with 2 other students. One, in front of her, a boy seems to be terrified and is glancing around the other boats. In back ofBehind you is a girl who seems kinda out of it. She is staring off into space, with her eyes unfocused.
They finally reach the enormous castle on the other side of the lake. They all enter through some doors and walk down a hallway. Then a strict looking woman with her hair tied up into a tight bun approached the group of students.
"Good evening. I am Professor McGonagall and welcome to Hogwarts. In a few moments, you will pass through the doors behind me and will be sorted into your houses. There are Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, and Slytherin. Thank you."
She then disappeared behind a set of oak doors. Everyone stood in the hallway, silent and motionless. Moments later, Professor McG (yeah it's an abbreviation) returned.
"We are ready for you now. Follow me" she said and opened the doors fully and revealed an enormous dining room. There are four main tables, each with many students sitting at it; there is one for each house. Julia scans the room for Harry, Ron and Hermione. She sees that they are at the table under the red and gold banners. By this time, everyone has reached the front of the room. Ahead of the group, there is yet another table. This table is full of adults, whom Julia assumes are teachers. On one end of the table, is that giant man, Hagrid. Yet, in the middle is an elderly man sitting on a larger table than the rest of the adults. Julia assumes that he must be important.
"Now when I call your name, you will come up here and sit down. I will put the hat on your head and you will be sorted into your houses. Mia Aaron's!" states Prof. McG.
By now, Julia had found her brother and they both glanced nervously at one another.
On and on the list Prof. McG has goes. Finally, there are only two people left, Julia and her brother.
"This year we have two new students from America. Please treat them as you would anyone else. Liam Lockkin!" Prof. McG says.
Julia smiled weakly at her brother as he walked nervously up to Prof. McG. He had a seat and she placed the hat on his head. Almost 10 minutes go by and then…
"HUFFLEPUFF!" shouts the sorting hat.
Every one cheers while Julia smiled, then realized, she's next.
"Julia Lockkin!" Shouts Prof. McG.
She stumbled up to the stool and take a seat. She places the hat on her head and it slips down past her eyes. Suddenly she can hear a voice inside her head.
"Ah! Another Lockkin! Your brother was difficult, but you seem to be easier. I know exactly where to put you…"says the sorting hat.
