Hogwarts

You weren't even focusing on your reading. The first half hour you were poreing yourself in the books and the other half you were contemplating on things. How will you gain respect in the school? How will you make your father proud? Where is your mother staying? So you could plan on some way to kill her. Everything thoughts were clouding you. You couldn't even hear Cygnus and Druella talking.

After a lot of shouting and shaking, you were cut by your thoughts. "Y/n?" Druella said, Cygnus shaking you intensively. "Huh?" "We have reached wear on your robes." Cygnus said. "What happened to you?' Druella asked. "Oh was just thinking on something ." "Don't strain yourself Y/n/n." Cygnus said.

You wore the robe and you glanced down at your book, you kept it in the bag. Letting out an exasperated sigh, you glanced at your pendant your father gave it to you. Missing him already.

As you were carrying your things, you suddenly bumped into someone. "Watch where you're going." You said gritting through your teeth. "You should watch your steps too." He said while you helped yourself getting up. You instantly recognised the voice. "It's you again! Why does it always have to be you" You said in a huff. You picked everything up and rushed towards Cygnus and Druella. Oh, how he made you angry. "He has a bad aura Y/n." Kiken spoke to you in Parseltongue. "What do you mean by that?" " I don't know it's just something is wrong about him, stay away from him. You have to accomplish your plans." "I'll do that."
Little did you know. That the mysterious boy was hearing the conversation between you and your pet snake. Shock and curiosity aroused on his face. Thinking about how you could speak in Parseltongue like he does it too. "So, let the games begin." Cygnus said whooping. Making Druella burst into laughter and causing you to roll your eyes.

"Yall will get your first sight of Hogwarts in a second," Druella called over her shoulder.

The castle was bold on the blue beyond. It stood there as if conjured from the storybook of a child. It was perfect. You imagined unicorns in the courtyard, because if those towers could exist, why not? Every stone was even and square, as if those who built were set on perfection, as if they really loved what they made. They were walls made to protect a community, to echo with laughter and be the shelter they needed for the millennia to come.

"Come on now we don't have to be late." Druella said. "Oh umm...yes... sorry." You said.

The Hogwarts boats are traditionally used to transport the first year students, accompanied by Hogwarts gamekeeper Ogg across the Black Lake from Hogsmeade Station to the castle at the start of the school year. At the end of the school year, first years take the boats back across the lake to Hogsmeade Station.

During the Hogwarts graduation ceremony, the seventh-years ride the boats back across the lake as they leave the school for the last time.

The stone walls were lit with flaming torches like the ones at Gringotts, the ceiling was too high to make out, and a magnificent marble staircase facing them led to the upper floors.
They followed Professor Dumbledore across the flagged stone floor. You could hear the drone of hundreds of voices from a doorway to the right -the rest of the school must already be here -- but Professor Dumbledore showed the first years into a small, empty chamber off the hall. They crowded in, standing rather closer together than they would usually have done, peering about nervously.
"Welcome to Hogwarts," said Professor Dumbledore. "The start-of-term banquet will begin shortly, but before you take your seats in the Great Hall, you will be sorted into your houses. The Sorting is a very important ceremony because, while you are here, your house will be something like your family within Hogwarts. You will have classes with the rest of your house, sleep in your house dormitory, and spend free time in your house common room.The four houses are called Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, and Slytherin. Each house has its own noble history and each has produced outstanding witches and wizards. While you are at Hogwarts, your triumphs will earn your house points, while any rulebreaking will lose house points. At the end of the year, the house with the most points is awarded the house cup, a great honor. I hope each of you will be a credit to whichever house becomes yours. The Sorting Ceremony will take place in a few minutes in front of the rest of the school. I suggest you all smarten yourselves up as much as you can while you are waiting." His eyes lingered for a moment on Duncan's (A/N:Longbottom just think his grandfather name's that) cloak, which was fastened under his left ear, and on Cygnus' smudged nose. Druella nervously tried to flatten her hair.
