Hey!! Thank you to all the people who reviewed. Please continue and tell me if i'm making this story boring or something. The story goes on.
"The castle is so beautiful." I said, joyfully.
"It looks creepy to me." Raela disagreed. My stomach growled loudly. Sirius and James started laughing. I glared at them. Then Sirius' stomach growled, James started laughing even harder and I joined him laughing, Remus and Raela just rolled their eyes.
"I hope we get to the castle soon, I'm hungry." I complained.
"Me too." Sirius agreed. Just then we arrived at the shore.
"Yeah!" Sirius yelled, with delight. I tried to get off the boat, but I slipped and fell into the water. I screamed, the water was freezing, I could feel my joints starting to freeze. The Marauders and Raela whirled around. Sirius quickly rushed over to the edge.
"Sierra, can you reach up?" He yelled. He held out his hand, I missed it two times but on the third try I grabbed it, and he pulled me up. He stood me up, Remus rushed over and did a complicated movement with his wand and I instantly dried.
"Well.. Thanks for the help." I said to Raela and James.
"Hey Sirius beat me to it." James said.
"I wouldn't be strong enough." Raela stated.
"Uh… how do we get to the great hall?" Sirius asked.
"I have no idea." I said.
"I guess we just have to guess." Raela determined. We entered the castle and heard someone singing. So we followed the voice. Just as the voice died away we found the 1st years.
"Good, we didn't miss the sorting." James sighed in relief. My stomach filled with dread again. Professor McGonagall started saying names
Avery, Darren, Slytherin
Black, Sirius. Sirius went up to the front and sat down I noticed his face was pale. Professor McGonagall placed the hat on his head. It just sat there until. It shouted.
"Gryffindor!" Several people gasped, I looked over at the Slytherin table and most of the people had very shocked looks on their faces. Sirius bounced off the stool and walked jauntily to the Gryffindor table. Several more names were called. Until,
Evans, Lily. I saw James' head snap up and look as the red haired girl went up and sat down.
Gryffindor. I could see her look a little disappointed, which was very weird then she went to the table, she was going to sit beside Sirius but then she must have remembered him from the train, so she sat beside someone else.
Lupin, Remus. The hat went onto his head as soon as it touched it yelled.
"Gryffindor!" Remus slid off the stool and sat down across from Sirius. A few more names until,
Potter, James. James sat down on the stool and had the hat placed on him.
"Gryffindor!" It shouted. He also bounced off the stool and walked cheerfully to the Gryffindor table, if I'm going to Gryffindor then I am going to do that and sat down beside Sirius.
Raring, Raela. Raela walked confidently towards the stool and placed the hat on her head. The hat took a while before saying.
Gryffindor. She went to the table and sat down beside Remus, who said something to her.
Rowing, Rose. A petite girl went to the stool and jumped onto it. Professor McGonagall placed the hat on and the hat yelled.
Gryffindor. Rose went and sat down beside Raela.
Shallow, Sierra. I slowly walked towards the stool. On my way I could see everyone staring at me. I sat down on the stool. I must have looked very nervous because Raela gave me an encouraging nod and Sirius smiled, which made my heart flutter. James was just staring at the red haired girl, well thanks a lot! Professor McGonagall placed the hat on my head. I could hear its voice.
Hmm. You could do well in Ravenclaw. "Gryffindor." I chanted in my head. It paused for a moment then,
"Gryffindor." It shouted.
I smiled and bounced off of the stool and walked jauntily to the Gryffindor table. I sat down beside Sirius.
"Got your pick of houses." Sirius asked.
"No." I sadly said.
"Ohh, right you wanted go in Hufflepuff or was it Slytherin?" He said.
"Slytherin." I said, starting to smile. He started to laugh.
"Why are you laughing." I asked.
"Did you see my cousins face?" He said almost choking.
"Who is your cousin?" I asked.
"Bellatrix." He said.
"Oh.. well then I didn't see her" I said.
"She looked so funny!" He exclaimed.
"Who me?" Raela asked, confused.
"No, not you." He said, still smiling.
"Isn't that so cool, we actually did get in Gryffindor." Raela exclaimed. Remus and James nodded.
"It is awesome!" I exclaimed. While Sirius said.
"It is amazing!" Just then the sorting ended. Then Professor Dumbledore gave a speech, which I wasn't listening to. Then he said.
"Enjoy your food." Yes food, finally. Platters magically appeared and I started to eat. Out of the corner of my eyes, I saw Sirius and James shovelling food in at an amazing rate, oh brother. After a while I got too stuffed to eat, so I just sat and waited. Finally, Professor Dumbledore said it was time to go to the Common Rooms.
"First years follow us." Alice Prewett, a perfect, called. The whole Gryffindor table followed Alice Prewett and Frank Longbottom. They all went to the seventh floor and entered through a portrait.
"Wow!" The marauders said. The room was beautiful.
"Girls up here." Alice Prewett explained.
"Boys up here." Frank Longbottom also explained.
"See you tomorrow." I said to the guy Marauders. I followed all of the girls. Alice stopped at the first door.
"First year girls in here." She said. Me, Raela, Rose. Lily and another girl went in there.
"I get this bed." I screamed, jumping into the bed next to the window.
"I get this one." Raela yelled. As she jumped onto the bed next to mine.
"I get that one." Rose screamed, as she entered into the room, pointing to the one across from mine.
"I get that one." Lily said, pointing to the one across from Raela.
"I guess, I get that one." The other girl said. We all moved in and got ready for bed.
"I know what, let's play Truth and Dare, it is a muggle game." Rose yelled.
" Let's do it." Raela said, nodding.
"Does anyone have an empty bottle, I think we need to spin it to see who goes first." Lily said.
"I do." Rose said.
"Why do you have an empty bottle?" I asked.
"I don't know." She said.
"Well anyway let's start!" Raela said.
" Oh yeah by the way, what is your name?" I asked the other girl.
" My name is Mary MacDonald." She said.
"I will spin the bottle!" Raela said. She spun it and it landed on Rose.
"Okay, so she is answering it and now we need to spin it again to see who asks her or tells her what to do." Lily said. Lily spun it and it landed on Lily.
"Hmm… weird, okay Rose, Truth or Dare?" Lily asked.
"Truth." Rose said, hesitantly.
"Hmm….. Oh.. okay this is very common. Who do you like and if you don't like anyone who do you think is the most cutest?" Lily said, with a grin. Rose reddened.
"I don't know Sirius, I guess?" She said hesitantly.
"Your turn to spin the bottle." Lily said. Rose spun it and it landed on me.
"Truth or Dare?" She asked.
"Dare!" I said. Rose sat and thought and then a grin spread on her face.
"I dare you to go through the boy dormitory hallway and scream "Help the Slytherins are after me!" I groaned, but I walked out of the girl dormitories accompanied by all of them. I walked up the stairs took a deep breath and ran down the boys hallway screaming,
"Help the Slytherins are after me!"
The first year door was open and I saw Sirius, James, Remus and another boy sitting on their beds laughing. When I went past the second time, the Marauders looked at me quizzically. Once I was back in the our dormitory, I sighed with relief. I spun the bottle and it landed on Lily.
"Truth or Dare?" I asked in a singsong voice.
"Truth." She said.
"Who do you think is cutest of the Gryffindor boys?" I asked, grinning.
"James but I most certainly don't like him." She said. She spun the bottle and it landed on Mary.
"Truth or Dare?" Lily asked.
"Truth, I don't want to do something stupid in front of the boys." Mary said
" What is the most embarrassing thing that happened to you?" I asked.
"I think this counts, I ran into a boy in my class while playing baseball two times." Mary said, red. Mary spun the bottle and it landed on Raela.
"Finally my turn!" She shrieked.
"You want a turn?" I asked
"Yeah!" She said.
"Truth or Dare?" Mary asked.
"Dare!" Raela said. Mary sat back clearly thinking. Suddenly I got an idea, I leaned over and whispered it to Mary. Mary said the dare then we all went to the boy dormitories and stood beside the doorway of the first years.
"Okay." I whispered to Raela.
"Do it." Mary whispered.
"What are they doing right now?" Lily asked. Raela glared at us and then peeked inside.
"There still sitting in their beds." She said. She stood there, probably collecting herself before she went into the guys room. Then she walked in. I was just going to peek in but Mary said,
"I get to watch it was my idea."
"Hey Raela, what are you doing here?" I heard Remus ask, suspiciously.
"So how are you?" I heard her ask.
"Good." I heard Remus say. Raela said something muffled, then she said goodbye and she raced past us. We heard walking so we raced out of the boys hall right after Raela.
"So did you do it?" I asked when we got back in our dormitory. Raela nodded. I looked at Mary.
"Yeah, she went in there sat down beside Remus, asked how he was doing, hugged him and then ran out. I started laughing along with everyone else.
"It isn't that funny." Raela said, annoyed. Just then I heard voices.
"Shh... listen" I said. I heard footsteps someone was coming up the stairs.
"Now their coming!" I whispered. Then right after I said that I heard a yelp and then laughing..
"Weird." I thought
I crept out of the room and looked down the hall then I opened the door. I looked out and saw Sirius and James laughing their heads off, with Remus beside them lying on the ground.
"What happened here?" I asked.
"Remus…started.. walking.. up. the stairs.. then.. all of the… sudden.. it turned… into a.. slide and… he slid …down." Sirius gasped, still laughing.
"Are you okay?" I asked Remus. He nodded looking a little embarrassed. I rolled my eyes, then went back to the room.
"What happened?" Raela asked.
"Remus had started walking up the stairs then for some strange reason they turned into a slide which took him by surprise and he slid down." I said. We all started laughing. Then we heard a nock.
"Bed time!" I could hear Alice say sharply.
"Already!" I said.
"Yes." She said, sharply.
"The third and second years are already asleep!" She continued.
"Fine." I said. We all got ready then got into our beds and went to sleep.
