Well here's James's Veiw on First year. Hope my new Reviwers like it! Happy Cristmas (Early)
"Common James!" Sirius Black yelled.
I grinned, "Coming Sirius!" I yelled back.
And that's how it all started, my obsession with Lily Evans. I and my best mate Sirius were going to Hogwarts school of Witchcraft and Wizardry (We were wizards). It was only for Pure Blood wizards or half bloods, no muggle borns had ever been to Hogwarts in over thirty years and there was a rumor that there was a new girl going to Hogwarts that was muggleborns.
Anyways Sirius and I Had just walked through the barrier when my mum gave us money for the food trolley. Her bright blue eyes were filled with tears as she gave me a hug. I kissed her cheek.
"Don't worry mum," I assured her, "Me and Sirius won't blow up Hogwarts or anything like that."
My mum laughed, "You do that and your coming strait home" she warned me.
"Will you tell dad I said goodbye?" I asked her.
"You know I will honey," she kissed my forehead one more time; "I have to go, be good, and please don't get in trouble."
I waved goodbye as she walked out of the barrier. Sirius put his arm around my shoulder and grinned. I looked at him.
"It's just you, me, and the wizarding world" Sirius said grinning.
I smiled, "Someone call the healers now."
We got into the Hogwarts express and put our stuff in a carriage room. Sirius was having trouble lifting his trunk up and hit his head. Laughing I helped him put it up and them walked into the corridor. Sirius followed rubbing his head.
"Maybe it knocked some sense into you." I joked Sirius burst out laughing.
I Stopped instantly and Sirius hit my from behind. A red headed girl was standing there, her eyes were a bright emerald and she had over a million tiny freckles in her pâté face. Her face showed a mixture of feeling. I couldn't stop staring, she was pretty.
"It's rude to stare you know" She told me.
I started stuttering, "Oh...I...Er..." I blushed up to my black roots. Sirius was laughing into his hand and The girl looked like she was about to smile as well. Sirius took me by the arm and lead me away from her.
"Who in the world is she?" I asked Sirius.
"I think she's the muggle born girl." Sirius said.
"NO Way!"
I turned around to look back at her. I saw her conversing with a boy about my age that had brown hair. Remus Lupin, one of my other best friends. Sirius grinned when he saw who the girl is. Remus walked into a compartment with her. I dragged Sirius back that way as the train started moving. When we walked into the compartment we heard Remus talking about us.
Remus was laughing, "As embarrassed as I am to admit it, yes"
"Hey!"—the girl groaned--"I resent that!"
"Hey James, Sirius." Remus said grinning.
"Who's the girl-friend?" Sirius asked Remus, who blushed scarlet.
"She not my girlfriend" He muttered.
"What's your name?" I asked the girl.
"Lily Evans," She answered, "Now if you'll excuse me."
Lily Evans stood up and left the compartment Sirius leaned forward and Started telling me off.
"Aww mate you scared her off." Sirius said crossing his arms.
"You're the one who always scared them off." I said.
Sirius grinned then shrugged. Remus, Laughing, pulled out a deck of exploding snap cards.
"Anyone wanna play?" He asked.
Sirius and I cheered. For the rest of the trip we played exploding snap and ate candy from the trolley. I guess you could say the trouble started when we got off the train. I saw Lily with a boy, and not just any boy, That boy was Severus Snape who would kill Lily in a second.
"Hey Snape, trying to kill muggle borns already? Aren't you a bit young?" I yelled at him.
Sirius and Remus snickered.
"Shove off" I heard Snape mutter.
"What's the matter my dear mate? Stuck a nerve?" I said mockingly.
Snape whipped around wand in hand; we already had our wands out. Snape would curse us and we knew not to take any chances around him.
"I don't hang out with Mudbloods" Snape said frowning, "I didn't know Evans was one."
I flinched, he dare say that word in front of me? "Don't you dare call her a mudblood!"
Remus walked forward and dragged Lily over to our side. Just then two older students appeared. One of them had bright red hair; the other had dark brown hair. They also had their wands out. They were the head boy and girl.
"What in the world do you fist years think your doing?" The boy yelled, "Stop fighting and follow the rest of the first years to the boats!"
Lily hung her head and yanked her hand out of Remus's grip. She should be thanking me for saving her life. Snape would lure her in and then POW! He would kill her. Bloody idiot. I've hated him ever since I laid eyes on him. I got on a boat with Lily and the guys, but didn't talk at all.
We got off the boats and the head boy and girl went inside the castle without us. A girl with heavily lidded eyes came over; four boys followed her like love struck puppies. She stopped in front of Sirius and grinned. I could smell trouble brewing, Sirius hated his family, most especially his cousin Bellatrix Black. But hey, who wouldn't hate her?
"See your still hanging out with these people." She said to Sirius.
"Go away Bellatrix" Sirius told her.
"Leave before I have a reason to curse you into oblivion." I warned her.
"Well Potters' getting pretty sure of himself, isn't he?" Bellatrix said, "You best watch your back Potter." She added mincingly.
I felt my temper rise. Bloody chicken, how dare she? I started thinking of ways I could kill her without being exspelled.
"Leave them alone." I heard Lily say, I looked at her unbelievingly.
"Stay out of this" Sirius told Lily.
"Yes" Bellatrix agreed," This is between me and my dear old cousin."
"Come here Lily" I said, not wanting Lily to be hurt by one of Bellatrix's mates.
"Aww Potters got himself a girlfriend." Bellatrix said.
I blushed scarlet but ignored her, and looked back at Lily, "I said come here Lily"
"I'm not your slave" she said to me, then she turned to Bellatrix, "You obviously have never seen a red head mad, so I'll tell you now, you never want to."
Before Bellatrix could do anything else the doors opened and then an OLD man came out I smiled, Dumbledore was here. He had light white hair and light blue eyes that sparkled behind glasses. Albus Dumbledore opened his arms out wide as if to hug them all.
"Welcome to Hogwarts! I'm Professor Dumbledore" He said to them smiling, "You will soon step through these doors and be sorted into your houses. Your house will be like your family; you will do classes with them, eat with them, and sleep with them in your own dormitories. There are four houses in all, Gryffindor—a few kids hissed softly—Slytherin—other kids hissed—Hufflepuff, and Ravenclaw."
I started to fiddle with my collar, praying I would make it to Gryffindor. I noticed Lily watching me and I smiled at her. She blushed and looked around at Remus, who was muttering like there was no tomorrow. We walked into the Hall. Older kids were sitting at four tables and staring at us. I looked up and saw the sky I loved the great hall for that reason, it always showed you the ourside weather. Professor Dumbledore stopped in front of a stool.
"When I call your name please step forward and you will be sorted." Dumbledore said.
"Aliments, Maiden!"
A Girl with blond braids stepped forward, her light blue eyes sort of glazed over. She walked over to the stool on the stage and an old and mattered hat was placed on her head. The sorting hat.
"Hufflepuff!" the hat yelled.
"Athens Lena!" was placed in Ravenclaw.
"Black Bellatrix!"
Sirius' cousin stepped forward. The hat had barley been placed on her head when it yelled Slytherin. The table next to us first year's cheered. Bellatrix looked happy, I heard someone whisper, "Figures"
"Black, Sirius!" Dumbledore said.
Sirius Black stepped forward. I heard some of the older students snicker,I grinned as well wondering what this outcome would be. I watched as the hat was placed on his head. It shouted "Gryffindor" and gasps were easily placed along the hall. Sirius himself looked surprised, but then grinned when the Gryffindor table burst into applause. He winked at me and went to go sit down.
Everyone was either going to Ravenclaw and Gryffindor or Slytherin. When they finally got to the "E"'s I heard Lily's name called out. I reached forward and squeezed her hand softly.
"Good Luck Lily" I whispered.
"Gryffindor!" The hat yelled.
I cheered for her and beamed when she walked by. I was one of the last people that were called. When Dumbledore called my name I took a deep breath and stepped up to the stool.
Another Potter, yes your father was a good one, your mother too. But whats this? You will have some great pains in your future, but you will have someone beside you everystep of the way. Love, Curage, Loyalty, perfect for:
"Gryffindor!" The hat yelled out.
I ran to the table grinning like an idiot. Sirius thumped me on the back and scooted over so that I was sitting next to Lily.
"Great job" She told me.
"You too" I grinned.
"Thanks" She said flashing me a smile.
The last person to be sorted was "Zeon, Michel" who was sorted into Slytherin. That's when I noticed there were more slitherins this year...how odd. The headmaster stood up smiling.
"Hello, Hello, Hello, and welcome to a new year at Hogwarts, I'm your headmaster Dippit, "the headmaster told us, "For those of you who are new I'd like to lay down a few rules, the forest is forbidden as well as the fifth floor corridor for building reasons. Now I hate to be the bearer of bad news but due to resent events Hogwarts will no longer have Divination as a subject—a few older kids cheered—so classes will be fifteen minutes longer—other kids groaned—please be aware that if you break any of these rules you will be priced with detention."
The headmaster paused, "Now lets sit down to this wonderful feast our house elf's made for us."
Food Appeared suddenly before our very eyes. I would never forget the look on Lily's face. I laughed at her and she grinned back at me.
"How do you like Magic so far?" I asked her piling food onto her plate and mine.
"I love it." She said taking a bite of turkey.
The rest of the night was spent laughing and talking of our family's. I had never felt so at home. I had a wonderful new friend who was...dare I say it...Beautiful. I was finally a student at Hogwarts. What could go wrong?
Absolutely Nothing.
Or so I thought.
There's james's Version. Second year next! YAY!
