The hall was still except few whispers from certain people. Rebecca was confused, Why was she put in Slytherin? Surly she would be in Gryffindor like her brother and parents. Many questions flooded her mind as she stood up and made the awkward way over to the Slytherin table at the far side of the hall. She looked over at her brother who gave her a look of sympathy and sadness. Karma was really upset at this as he knew Slytherin was the house Rebecca despised the most and now that she was a part of it, she would feel very depressed. The Slytherins and some other people from other houses gave her dirty looks as she walked by. The people from other houses did because they also hated people from Slytherin as in Hogwarts they are known as the bullies and the people from Slytherin didn't like her because she was responsible for the destruction of they're God, He who shall not be named. When she reached the table she sat down in the closest seat to her attempting to get out of everyone's view. However when she realised who she had sat next to she felt as if her life had ended. Beside her was the one and only Draco Malfoy, the boy she had yelled at and kicked in the shin in the hallway. "Well Potter welcome to the house of the snake, the house where you don't belong." He taunted her in a whispering tone so nobody could hear him. "And just to let you know Potter, I'm going to make It a living hell for you."

The sorting went by but Rebecca didn't listen to the rest of it after her sorting and before she realised the hall broke out into a jolly song.

"Hogwarts, Hogwarts Hoggy Warty Hogwarts
Teach us something please
Whether we be old and bold or young with scabby knees
Our heads could do with filling with some interesting stuff
For now there bare and full of air, dead flies and bits of fluff
So teach us things worth knowing
Bring back what we forgot
Just do your best, we'll do the rest and learn until our brains all rot."

When the song finished Professor Dumbledore rose from his seat and declared the feast to begin. In front of everyone, a platter of food magically appeared and every student and teacher dug into the delicious meal. About half way through, Rebecca was distracted from her misery by a girl sitting next to her. She had long white blond hair and was really pretty. "Hi." she said "I'm Daphne Greengrass and just so you know I'm not going to insult you or anything just because your half-blood and your parents and brother are in Gryffindor. In fact I just want to be your friend." Rebecca was stunned at the politeness this girl had. she must have been a girl from family who was very strict on manners and etiquette. "Ummm thanks, that's very kind of you and I do appreciate it." Rebecca replied. The girls talked for the rest of the feast and got to know quite a bit about each other. Rebecca found out Daphne had an younger sister called Astoria and that she came from a old wizarding family line called the Sacred twenty eight and she found out that She too was one of those apart from her Father married a muggle and apparently according to pure-blood wizards that would make the family tree become impure.

When the feast ended, Professor Dumbledore told all the prefects to lead all the first years to their common rooms. Rebecca was desperately trying to find Harry and Karma through the enormous crowd of students. Before she could get to them she ran into the Slytherin Prefect. "Where do you thing your going Potter." he grunted at her angrily.
"To try and find my Brother and friend." She answered with a tone of bravery in her voice.
"No your not. your coming with us back to the common room, don't just think because your famous you can break the rules and make me lose my job." And with that the prefect grabbed Rebecca by the collar of her robe and dragged her out the hall to meet he other Slytherin first years, clearly waiting for her. "Now follow me and keep together!" The boy at the front shouted over the herd of first years. They walked into the great hall behind the Gryffindor First years and they reached the Grand stair case which was astounding. The staircases moved to different spaces and there was painting hung up all round the walls completely covering them and they were alive. The paintings were alive. Rebecca watched as in one of the two men were playing chess and another showed a girl curtsying and waving at passers by. This was amazing.

Rebecca saw how the Gryffindors were heading up the staircases and she had to follow her house which was going down. She stared as she watched her brother and his friend Ron disappear. Down, Down they went. through corridors filled with suits of armour and instead of lights there were torches lit hanging on the walls. "Where are we?" a boy named Vincent Crabbe asked the Prefects.
"This is the castle Dungeons Crabbe. This is where you'll have your potions lessons and this is where your common room is." He said approaching a stone door. A draft sent a shiver down Rebecca's spine making her somewhat afraid of what she will find down here. The prefect muttered a password and the door slid open and he entered with all the first years swiftly following behind. When Rebecca entered the common room all she saw was beauty. Hanging of green and silver was spread around the area. A large window was at the end of the room revealing fish and creatures swimming in water. This made her remember how Daphne said the common room was partly under the black lake. Black leather sofas was placed around the room with dark oak coffee tables and desks. A roaring fire was going in the corner of the room spitting and crackling. It made Rebecca wonder how a place of such amazement could feel so cold and dark at the same time.

"This is the Slytherin Dungeon." The prefect explained. "You may come her anytime you like, you can study, read or just talk and hang out. The password this fortnight is Achievement. When it changes it will be put on the notice board over there." He said pointing to an empty notice board hanging on the wall "The password must not be given to other house as this will result in immediate punishment. You will also sleep here as this is what you will class as your home while you are at Hogwarts. Dormitories are down the stairs, on the left for the girls and right for the boys. The girls dorm mates are Millicent Bulstode, Tracey Davis, Daphne Greengrass, Pansy Parkinson and Rebecca Potter." Pansy gave out a sigh of disappointment.
"Why do we get Potter, surly she should just sleep on the sofa." Pansy Whined.
"Hey I don't get to choose!" Rebecca shouted back.
"Fine, well just stay away from me Scar-head." If it wasn't for Daphne holding Rebecca back, she would have lunged at Pansy and broke her neck.
"Right now for the boys." the prefect continued. "Vincent Crabbe, Greggory Goyle, Draco Malfoy, Theodore Nott and Blaise Zabini." The boys unlike the girls, made no fuss at all but just smiled at each other, clearly content with each others company. "Now off too bed with you." The prefect ordered. They all did as they were told and made their way down to their dorms to go to bed to be ready for their first day of learning magic and making a dream come true.

Hi everyone, Becky here!
