Thanks again for reviewing guys.


Everyone was done being sorted into his or her individual houses. Lupin stood up, yet again, to speak. "Well, welcome to all the new students. I will keep this brief so that you can eat, so bon appetite." At that he clapped and the empty plates at the table were filled with food.

Sally and I gapped at the huge amounts of food in front of us. Andrew looked at us for a few seconds before he started shoveling food on to his plate. In the matter of minutes, before I had even started thinking about what I wanted to eat, Andrew had three pieces of chicken on his plate, accompanied by corn, peas, mashed potatoes, and a very large glass of pumpkin juice. I decided to shovel some roast beef with mashed potatoes on my plate. "Is there any salad?" Sally asked. Andrew and I looked curiously at her.

"Why do you want salad?" Andrew asked. I nodded to show that I was wondering the same thing.

"I'm a vegetarian. I have been since I was six. My dad hated me for it."

"I'm sorry Sally. Here." I said, as I passed her some green beans and salad.

"Thanks Violet." Andrew still had a confused look on his face. He had also stopped eating.

"You wont make me go vegetarian, will you?" Andrew asked.

"It is your choice. I don't care what you eat. I just don't like meat."

"OK, good." He said as he began shoveling food into his mouth again.

"Andrew, that is so gross." I commented. It was gross. It didn't even seem that he was chewing.

"What is gross?"

"You, and your eating. Are you even chewing?"

"I'm chewing," he said as some food flew out of his mouth.

"That's gross. You are so immature," said a red headed girl a few seats away.

"Who are you to say that he is immature," I said.

"Yeah, you don't even know him," Sally said. The red head sat there, open mouthed, for a while, but after she had discovered that she had no comeback, she just turned back to her food.

When it seemed that almost everyone was finished eating, Lupin stood up. "Now that we are all full, I have a few announcements. The Forbidden Forest is off limits, as always. Also, a new thing we are adding this year, is an official class for dueling. This will be available for forth years and older, and will be taught be Professor Tonks. Now everyone go off to bed. First years, you will get your schedules tomorrow morning." With that everyone got up.

Then a girl with blond hair, and a boy with black hair said loudly, "First year Hufflepuffs, Stay for a minute, and we will bring you to your house." And so we stayed. In a minutes only fist years and two people, a older girl and boy from each house, were left. "Alright, lets get going," said the girl. "First of all, I am Celia, and this is Tom, and we are your prefects."

We all started to walk out of the Great Hall when the boy said, "Try to remember the way from the Great Hall to our house. You don't want to get lost and miss breakfast."

They lead us to a big staircase, we all walked up it, but about half way up, we turned onto another staircase. This new staircase was wood, unlike the grand one, which was stone. This staircase also was leading down into a cellar. We walked all the way down that one, turned left down a hallway, and come up in front of a picture of a mermaid. We all stood there for a second.

Celia turned around, "Here is the entrance to Hufflepuff house. There are a few more secret entrances, but you have to find those on your own."

At that mention, the mermaid turned her head and looked down at Tom and hollered "PASSWORD?"

Tom a little taken aback paused for a second before saying, "Dragonfly." Then the pictures slid up the wall a little bit, revealing a staircase with an orange and black patterned carpet covering it. The staircase was leading down into the common room. We all gathered at the bottom of the staircase.

"This is the common room," Celia said. "Most of you will end up doing your homework down here. There are small common rooms at each entrance. That is how you will most likely find new entrances. The password is the same at each entrance. It will change every two weeks, and the new password will be posted on that bulletin board." She said, pointing to a small board with a Hogwarts map, class information, and the password.

"You are not allowed to bring someone from another house down here. If you want to work on something with them, do it in the library or on the grounds," Tom said. "Now I will show you guys to your room, and Celia will show the girls to theirs. Boys, don't try to get into the girls dormitory. The result will not be pleasant." Everyone giggled, and Sally and I followed Celia.

"Andrew, meet us in the common room before breakfast, OK!" Sally yelled. He gave us a thumb up as we walked up a spiral staircase. We walked passed two doors with Badgers on them across the hall from each other.

Celia stared talking, "Those are extra bathrooms. Your room has a bathroom also, but since you are sharing a room, these are here in case of emergency." Everyone giggled, because we knew what she was implying. "And here is your room. As the years go by your room will be farther up the staircase. Your trunks will be in front of your beds. You may move them, but there is no real point. I suggest you go right to bed, since breakfast is from 7:00 to 8:30, but most of the food will be gone by 8:00." Then she left, and we opened the door to reveal five, four-poster beds, with curtains sporting the Hufflepuff colors and badger. Each be had a nightstand on each side, and a trunk at the end of the bed. Sally and I quickly found our trunks to discover that we were sleeping next to each other. We changed into our pajamas and climbed into the thick covers.

"OK, I think we should all learn each others names," a girl with copper hair said. "Lets go around in a circle." I could tell by the way she held herself that she would be like a leader in our little first-year clan. "I'll start. My name is Mackenzie Heart, but I like to be called Kenzie. This is my dog Stetson."

"I'm Rose Smith, people call me Rosie or Roro, and Kenzie's dog barks at invisible monsters. Just so you know."

"I thought your name was Elizabeth," the girl with the red hair from earlier said.

"It is, but I like Rose more, it is my middle name. What is your name?"

"My name is Rachel Crabbe. I was supposed to be in Slytherin, but that confounded hat put me in here."

"Well, my name is Sally Malfoy, and I really didn't want to be in Slytherin despite my fathers wishes."

I went last. "My name is Violet Weasley. There really is nothing interesting about me, except that my uncle is Harry Potter."

"That is so cool," Kenzie said.

"Yeah, totally," Rose followed in saying.

"I'm glad you guys think so. I'm tired though. Can we get some sleep?" I suggested.

"Oh, right," Kenzie said with a smile on her face. "Good night."

"Night," choired three other voices, including my own. Then Stetson curled up next to Kenzie. I hugged my stuffed kitty, because I couldn't bring my kitty with me to school, because she was too old. After thirty minutes or so we were all fast asleep.
