"First years! First years this way please!" A voice boomed out as the four new friends exited the train, a giant man was standing there, waving his arms and calling to all the first years. Albus and Rose had run over to him, quickly Jordan and Christian followed but stopping behind them when they realized that he got even bigger when they were closer to him.
"Hi Hagrid." Albus hugged the big man, Hagrid, as Rose did the same thing. He looked down at them smiling.
"Al, Rosie! You guys have gotten so big since thee last time I saw ya!" He smiled at them and then looked back at Jordan and Christian who he could tell was a little intimidated by his size. "Who's your little friends?"
"Oh sorry Hagrid, this is Jordan Sim and this is Christian Kardash." Albus introduced his two new friends.
"Pleasure to meet ya both, I'm Rubeus Hagrid, Keeper of keys and Grounds of Hogwarts. I'll be your Care for Magical Creatures Professor in a couple years." He introduced himself and engulfed their hands in handshakes with his big hands.
"Now is everyone here? Come this way." He bellowed out to all the first years that had circled around, he lead them down to the lake where there was boats waiting for them. The four of them piled into one boat as they had started to be pulled across the lake to the other side. The view in front of them was marvelous, in front of them all was the castle of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft, the castle was just shining from all the fires lit around it and from the glow from the windows. The kids were all-star struck by the site that was in front of them. Jordan looked around to see that there was something in the water, it looked like people, but with fins and scales. He tapped Christian on the shoulder and pointed down as he looked down as well, "Merpeople." He told him as Jordan shook his head in a yes still unable to speak any words.

They walked into the castle where there was a professor waiting for them, again Rosie and Albus seemed to have known this man as well as they waved at him which he gave a slight smile and wave back.
"Good evening, I am Professor Longbottom, when you walk through these doors I want you to continue forward following me. I will then call you up one by one, place the sorting hat on your head. The hat will then put you in your houses that is what table you will go to. They will become your next family, you'll live in that common room. After you have all been sorted, Headmistress McGonagall will then give the welcoming speech and then we feast." The Professor smiled as he walked into the hall to check on some things.
"Well I am probably going to be a Gryffindor since every Weasley ever has been a Gryffindor." Rose said with a grin on her face. "Where do you boys want to be sorted?"
"I would be happy as long as I am with one of you guys." Christian said with a laugh as Rosie smiled at him.
"Well I don't know much about anything here so wherever the sorting hat puts me I guess that is where I will have to go." Jordan answered with a shrug of his shoulders.
Albus put a reassuring hand on Jordan's shoulder, "Don't worry, my dad told me that the sorting hat takes your suggestion into consideration. You can go wherever you feel comfortable."
"Thanks Al," Jordan smiled back as his friend continued on.
"As for me, I would be happy as long as I don't go to Slytherin." He laughed as he heard a scoff in the crowd. A blonde boy walked up to Albus, he had slicked backed hair, about Christians size, dark brown eyes and just an arrogant look on his face.
"Rosie who is that?" Jordan whispered as he looked at the boy.
"That's Scorpious Malfoy, his father is Draco Malfoy. My parents and Albus' parents hated him. He's an arrogant little dung beetle." Rosie said as Christian had stifled a laugh at what she said.
"Why wouldn't you want to be in Slytherin Potter? Not good enough for the precious Potter blood?" Scorpious was basically right in front of Albus' face.
"No, Malfoy. Annoying prats like you just come out of there. I actually want a future, unlike your grandfather who likes to spend his time in Azkaban." Albus had a threatening tone in his voice.
Scorpious had an angry look on his face as he pushed Albus on the ground then tried to hit him, "Don't you talk about my family like that!" Jordan and Christian had moved in quickly, Christian pulled Albus up and Jordan pushed Scorpious away. "Let go of me you Mu-"
"I wouldn't advise you in finishing that sentence Mr. Malfoy." Professor Longbottom had come back out in time as the two boys had dusted himself off and walked back in line. "Now we are all ready for you." He smiled then turned right around opening the big doors.
The four of them were amazed at the site of them, Jordan could see Albus and Rose wave at people they knew, they must have just known everybody he thought to himself. A girl bumped in to Jordan when they stopped. "Oh sorry!" She apologized quickly as she was star struck by everything around them.
"It's fine, hi I'm Jordan." He smiled at her.
"Hailey. Amazing isn't it? It's more then I even imagined." Hailey still had star struck look in her eyes as she looked around at everything she saw. Hailey was a shorter girl, she had long chocolate brown hair, beautiful hazel eyes, Jordan also noticed that her smile was making him smile that's how good it was.
Suddenly they heard a name being called.
"Hailey Christie"
The girl Jordan was just talking to walked up to the hat, Professor Longbottom slowly set the hat on her head as she looked around as it got real quiet. "Hmm, I remember sorting a girl like you once, she was difficult to place. You would strive as a Ravenclaw, but also do well as a Hufflepuff. I could put you just about anywhere." Jordan had no idea what was happening when suddenly the hat yelled "GRYFFINDOR!" Startling Jordan as the he assumed was Gryffindor started cheering as she ran over there.
"Kyle Dungca"
One boy was called and a hat was set upon his head, it was quiet then the hat yelled "RAVENCLAW!" The one table, which he assumed was the Ravenclaw table was cheering happily as the boy ran over there and sat with his new family.
"Cordell Ginnis"
This was a big kid, for 11 this kid looked like he was 15 he was tall and huge. Everyone couldn't help but feel intimidated by his booming presence. "He'd make a bloody good beater." He heard someone say from somewhere. "GRYFFINDOR!" The hat yelled and the table that was Gryffindor went nuts. A few more names were being called as one of them were soon called out.
"Christian Kardash"
Christian wouldn't move so Jordan gave him a push as he started to walk up the steps towards Professor Longbottom as the hat was set upon his head. "Well hello Mr. Kardash, let's see where we should put you...hmmm loyal yes, loyal like a dog to the end. I know..." "GRYFFINDOR!" The hat yelled as the table began cheering once again for the new addition.
"Scorpious Malfoy"
The boy barely got up there as it's almost like the hat had just looked at him, "SLYTHERIN" that table hooted and howled at their new member.
"Tucker McMullen"
A smaller boy with dark hair like Jordan's with brown eyes walked up to the hat, it sat there for a while thinking quietly. "HUFFLEPUFF" It yelled out which sent the table cheering.
"Taylor Mitchell"
The girl happily walked up to the top of the podium and again the hat shouted out "HUFFLEPUFF!" the table had something to cheer about as she skipped on over to her new friends.
"Albus Potter"
Albus walked up the stage as he nervously was sitting there, hoping what his dad said would work. "Ahhh a Potter, you wouldn't happen to want to go to Slytherin unlike your father would you? You would do so well. Are you sure? Well in this case..." "GRYFFINDOR!" Jordan watched his friend run over to the table and be hugged by what he assumed was his brother.
"Looks like it's just us left." Rose smiled as she nudged Jordan a little bit, which he returned with a smile.
"Skyler Reeve"
This young man was also decently fit for an 11 year old, the hat was set upon his head. "SLYTHERIN!" The hat yelled out sending the boy off to the Slytherin table where he sat next to Scorpious. Then the moment came for Jordan.
"Jordan Sim"
He took a deep breath and walked up to the chair. "Well, well what do we have here? A muggle born boy, but what is this, very odd. Your father wasn't a wizard but he has produced three magical children, how peculiar. At least the other two are half-bloods, you are a rare case. I sorted your brother already, where would you like to go? With him or your friends? Or are they in the same house? I'll let you find it out." "GRYFFINDOR!" The table cheered, Albus and Christian were standing up clapping and brought their friend into the table as he took a seat next to the Hailey girl he met earlier. Jordan was still thinking about what the hat said he didn't even hear Roses' name being called.
The hat did the same thing to Rose as it did to Malfoy, "GRYFFINDOR" The chant was what snapped him out of his trance and he smiled and cheered with all his friends as she took a seat next to him.

As they finished the ceremony, Professor McGonagall had a few words before she clapped her hands and food just magically started to appear, "Whoa, I could really get used to this magic thing." Jordan smiled as he looked at his friends and began digging in.
"Jordan, Christian, I want you guys to meet my brother and cousin, this Is James and Fred Jr but we just call him Freddie." Albus introduced the two of them to his older brother, James had shaggy dark hair, he didn't have the same eyes as Albus, and he must have had his mother's eyes. Fred Jr had the same red hair as Rose and a skinny frame.
"Nice to meet your Jordan, Christian." James and Freddie reached out to shake both of their hands but before Albus could stop them, Christian and Jordan were both shocked by the two of them. Christian stumbled backwards and ran into a student crashing over a plate. "Are you sure your name isn't Krash not Kardash?" Freddie asked as he helped Christian up.
"Krash, I like that." James said as he quit laughing at the two of them.
"I should have warned you beforehand, these two love their pranks." Albus couldn't help but laugh at both Christians and Jordan's hair. They both nodded silently as they sat back up at their table.
"James and Fred! That was very uncalled for! You could have hurt them! What were you thinking!" Rose was yelling at them from the other side of the table, they both kind of froze before they looked at the angry red head, quickly apologized and then sat back down. "Are you two okay? I can't believe that they did that." Rose said checking to see if her friends were okay.
"It's okay Rosie, it was funny." Jordan smiled at her.
"Yeah it was, I actually didn't mind the nickname either." Christian told her.
"Well as long as you two are alright then I'm okay too." Rose smiled at her two friends as they all continued to eat.
Jordan still was thinking about what the hat said to him. Did he really have a brother here? Was he in the same house as his brother? Was his brother even real? He sat there staring at his food, suddenly he felt a jab in his hand. "Ow! Hailey what was that for!" He looked over at the girl he barely knew, rubbing his hand soothing it.
"You were looking frustrated and you weren't eating, so I took the thought out of you and now you are focusing on your hand." He looked at her confused trying to make sense of what she said, "I was also trying to talk to you but you weren't paying attention at all." He then nodded understanding now.
"What were you trying to talk to me about?" He looked at her as he started eating.
"I wanted to know what was bothering you, you just looked different after you got back from the sorting hat." After she said that the rest of his friends started agreeing with her.
"Yeah mate, you look down." Christian had also said, now four pairs of eyes on him.
"It's nothing guys, still just awe struck about this whole thing." He lied but he played it off as a smile, they all accepted it and carried on what they were doing, except Hailey, she could tell something was bothering him but he didn't want to talk about it right now so she let it go.

"First year Gryffindors follow me!" Josh Saprah yelled out, the fifth year prefect that would be showing the first years to the dormitory. They followed him for what seemed like forever, when they got to the staircases they were absolutely amazed. The stairs were floating, flying, rotating going through the air into new places. It was absolutely amazing. All the fourth years were just amazed at the stairs, what Jordan was amazed by was the moving and talking paintings that were welcoming them to Hogwarts.
Eventually they got to one tall painting, a fat lady, which asked for a password, "Tea Cozy" Josh said as they entered the room, "Boys room is upstairs to your right, girls to your left. You must be in this room by curfew and you can do whatever you please in here after that. Your trunks are already in your rooms along with your class schedules." With that Josh had left.
The boys walked to their common room to see the beds and everything, "This is absolutely brilliant." Jordan smiled as he walked over to where his trunk was. He noticed Christian was on one side of him and Albus was on the other. "Tomorrow is the start of our first day guys." Jordan smiled as he laid down in his bed.
"Our first chapter." Christian smiled as well.
"Our own adventure." Albus also smiled as he went to bed.

Alright guys, I am sorry for how this chapter was kind of bad. It carried out in unnecessary parts, also I know I did a lot of extra people for the sorting ceremonies but they will all come into play as well. Just as sub characters. Just bare with me please! Remember, Review, Favourite, Follow, Do whatever you please!
