Codeya's (Luck's) Point of View
It wasn't long after the young men left that the girls started getting dressed. I, never having changed in front of anyone before was uncomfortable with the situation. So I left the compartment to find a bathroom. After I switched my outfit for the black robes I returned once again to the compartment to be greeted by a fresh and pure wave of laughter. Most likely a joke was laid out by the Marlene. I smiled lightly at their laughter appreciating the light and joyful feel if the room.
Mary noticed me and beckoned me to the seat next to her, I gladly took my place at her side as the girls jumped back into there conversations based upon a product called make up and some other nonsense. Though with no understanding of what was being talked about I still managed to feel comfort and joy around these people. I laid back enjoying the ride.

I was separated from the girls and greeted by a certain 'Slughorn' he would take me to the sorting while explaining basic rules of the school to me. Like all teachers he was oblivious to my true nature, the elemental nature. This was for my personal safety as well as that of my worlds. Though of all elementals luck was one of the most hated by the earth peoples. Only one at the school knew of my talents and I would prefer to keep it that way. Even though it was evident to many that I was different-as I had a ethereal glow around me and a hint of something unnatural-no one could ever place what was off about me.
I walked with my shoulders back as Professor Slughorn handed me a time table and explained the different corridors of the castle. By the time we reached the great hall there were only 3 first years left to sort one went to Slytherin and two where sorted to Hufflepuff. The tall witch standing next to the stool started to speak once again.
"This year we have a transfer student, and she will be joining the fifth years, in such living arrangements will be shifted to include her. Any one willing for a fifth room mate may come and speak to me after the feast. Visonchaser, Codeya." I walked to the front mustering all the grace and regality I could. A lackluster smile pasted upon my face. I am not one that will often draw attention to myself for I found it extremely discomforting, but when attention is drawn one should always look powerful, wise, and strong.
Once I reached the stool I sat tall and stiff waiting with patience as the hat was placed upon my head. The hat was not in the proper condition and therefore it was out of order. Had my father seen it he would have never allow it to be placed upon my head. The hat started talking to me seemingly amused with my thoughts.
Yes order is important, but I can not easily be replaced young one.
I am deeply sorry. I was unaware you had access to my thoughts. I thought surprised.
Its fine I would expect nothing less from the daughter of Order. Not to mention your elder brother will be the one inheriting his skills. Yes, I wonder how your father and elder brother will survive young Chaos as he continues to grow through his teen years. I am getting off topic aren't I? The hat laughed Yes, lets get you sorted shall we? I have never sorted a elemental before... hmmm Loyal, yes to a fault perhaps. Hard working? That depends on your outlook towards your current project. Wise? Well considering your elongated life you will be eventually but not quite yet. Intelligence? Yes but not enough to be in Ravenclaw. Let's see what else do we have here... Ambitious? Oh I have no doubt. Also very sly, yet the Slytherin in you is over-shadowed. Brave? Well I suppose one would have to be when they have the element of chaos as a brother. You are also very focused on self respect as well as earning respect. You are vigilant in appearance and not one to cross. Well then I am leaning towards Gyriffndor. I waited patiently for what seemed five minutes but was probably closer to thirty seconds as the final choice was made. "Hmmm yes better be... GYRIFFINDOR!"
I went to stand when the sorting hat started to speak once again. May your life shine like the purest silver and may you shape the world seen today. I smiled and stood up at his parting words, in my land of Izloway it was tradition to leave someone with a poetic wish as you left them. I sallied over to the cheering table and slid into the seat adjacent Marlene.
"We totally have to room with you!" Alice squealed excitedly. Marlene mimicked her squeal with great exaggeration though this action earned Marlene a swat from Alice. I laughed with the girls the entire meal, though I was careful as to not laugh as I had on the train, for that would be inappropriate in such a setting.
The food was as I have never tasted before, it was very exotic to me. Be that as it may I would like to take this opportunity to thank the creators of chocolate. Chocolate has always been a favorite of mine. It effects elementals differently then the people of magic or technology. We are affected in far... greater way. For the chemicals in chocolate send off a chain reaction with in our beings. It aids in healing and makes us joyous beyond natural if we don't eat it within careful moderation. I suppose one could say we become our own kind of drunk. We are placed in our own unique reality where everything is beyond beautiful and we loss the ability to think of anything negative. This to the extent that even if we were held at gunpoint we would be unable to think of any negative outcomes. It also makes it easy to do negative things to an elemental who is under the influence chocolate. Anyway back to the night.
After dinner we rushed to the front of the hall and asked the Professor who announced me, McGonagall, as her name turned out to be, if we could room together with the permission granted a extra bed was magically place with in our dorm. Before I had the option to follow the young woman out of the dining hall Professor McGonagall stopped me and directed me towards the headmaster.
I walked confidently up to the doors out side of the head masters office, saying the password I stood on the spiralling stairs revealed by the Griffon statute.
I knocked upon the door three times with a firm hand and well spaced timing. Once I hear the voice on the other side of the door welcoming me inside I turn the handle and straighten myself.
As soon as I entered the head master rose from his desk and spread his arms wide as a sing of welcome. "Welcome to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry."
I bowed my head slightly in thanks. "Good evening Headmaster."
"Good evening Luck."
The Headmaster smiled warmly. He had a long beard and milky white hair. His half moon glasses made him look kind and intelligent. He reminded me greatly of my Grand Father, The Elder Lord of Order.
We talked long into the night but basically this was the result, I would have private lessons with Dumbledore every day while my comrades participated in the morning classes. My magic, different in the fact that it ran through my blood instead of being my core, would be easier to control. Yet I would have both distinct advantages and disadvantages in my training because my magic allowed me to learn all spells and cast all spells with equal difficulty. This meant that the simple spells would be far more difficult for me to preform than it would my classmates. To counter this, I could use the most advanced of spell with less effort than others in the world would require to use.
Beyond this we spoke mainly of pleasantry's and the Headmaster constantly mentioned the importance of my elemental nature remaining hidden. Closing our conversation close to 11:45 I stood bidding the Headmaster goodnight he dipped his head in return.
The common room was in a word: magical. The fire place set a ethereal light dancing upon the soft chairs and couches of the common area. The red and gold splattered across the room set a regal look and spoke of power and boldness. To the right was the girls staircase and to the left lay the men's staircase. I walked gracefully up towards the dorm with my new name written on the sign.
