As the first years walked through the great hall, Niamh noticed the ceiling, it has fog and floating candles, she thought of her home, a small cottage in the woods. The first years stood in front of the stage, a tall woman stood up from her seat and spoke, “Welcome to Hogwarts first years! I am the headmistress, professor McGonagall. There are four houses here at Hogwarts, Ravenclaw, Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, and Slytherin. When I call your name, come up and you will be sorted into your house,” Niamh stopped paying attention at this point, she was too focused on the ceiling. “Niamh Moonsong,” she zoned back in, she stepped up onto the stage and sat down. The sorting hat was then placed on her head, “Ah, you are very unique indeed,” it said, Niamh felt it moving on her head, she had hoped her hood wouldn’t fall off, “You are very kind, very shy as well, but you aren’t afraid you stand up for your friends. Tell me child, what house are you hoping for?” She thought for a moment, “Anything but Slytherin,” “Ah, I see, you belong in, HUFFLEPUFF!” Niamh smiled and walked down towards the Hufflepuff table, she heard another name called, “Emily Lovegood?” //Isn’t that the girl I met on the Hogwarts express?// she thought, “HUFFLEPUFF!” the sorting hat exclaimed, Emily came over and sat down next to Niamh, “Hi again! We met on the way here, I’m Emily!” “Hi,” Niamh said shyly, “May I have your attention please!” McGonagall said, “It is time for the feast to begin!” and with a wave of her hand there was food on every table, Niamh couldn’t believe what she was seeing!
