◦°☆ Chapter seven: Hogwart☆°◦ They clambered up a passageway in the rock after Hagrid’s lamp, coming up at last on to smooth, damp grass right in the shadow of the castle. They walked up a flight of stone steps and crowded around the huge, oak front door. “Everyone here?” Hagrid raised a gigantic fist and knocked three times on the castle door. The door swung open at once. A tall black-haired witch in emerald-green robes stood there. She had a very stern face. “The first’-years, Professor McGonagall.” said Hagrid “Thank you, Hagrid. I will take them from here.” She pulled the door wide open. The first-years went in. The stone walls were lit by flaming torches, the ceiling was too high to make out, and a magnificent marble staircase facing them led to the upper floors. “Welcome to Hogwarts!” said Professor McGonagall “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 ceremony is very important because, while you are here, your houses will be something like your family within Hogwarts.” Ava was dying of hunger, but Professor McGonagal continued.“The four houses are called Griffindor, Huffelpus, Ravencaw and Slytherin.” Ava knew those names. All her family was in Gryffindor. Except Albus, he was in Slytherin. “The Sorting Ceremony will take place in a few minutes in front of the rest of the school. I suggest you all smart yourselves up as much as possible. I shall return when we are ready for you.” “I have a hairbrush, wanna borrow?” said Lily. “Sure! Thank you Lily!” said Ava “Wanna be friends?” Lily asked “Yes!!!” When Lily finished brushing her hair she gave Ava her hairbrush. She nervously tried to brush her hair. “You look great!” said Lily “Thank you.” “Can I borrow your hairbrush too?” asked Rose “Of course you can!” said kindly Lily. “Thanks!” They all smiled. “Hey, Chris! Do you need a hairbrush?” asked Lily. “No thanks, I have my own one.” smiled Chris “Ok!” “Move along, the Sorting Ceremony is about to begin!” said a sharp voice. It was Professor McGonagall. They followed her across the stone floor.
