The train was almost arriving at their destined place. Just a few minutes. "Quick!!! We gotta dress in our clothes." The dress in the girls dressing room and then went to the front just as the train was slowing. "Just on time!"Anna says happily. They went together with a large looking man into the castle. A professor came in and gesture for the first years to follow her into the Great Hall. Heather saw her older sister looked at her and grinned. Her sister waved. Heather's sister was a third year and a Gryffindor. Her name was Hannah. Everyone was in a line as the teacher called each their names up. It started with "Ann, Brenda." That girl to Heather looks really sly with slick jet black hair comb perfectly back into a high braid. She was sorted into Slytherin. Of course she would be, Heather thought. Anna and Kate were called already and both sorted to Gryffindor. Then...........

"Watson, Heather!!"

Heather walked up nervously to the stool, sat down, and placed the hat on her.

"Hmmmmm, where should I put you?"the hat says. "Yes, a LOT of bravery. Courage, hmm, yes. But you're also so very smart, loyal and kind. Hmmm, sly and sneaky as well. You'll do great in Slytherin, but you are a Watson. Your sister was a Gryffindor. Hard, very hard indeed."

Not Slytherin, not Slytherin, please,Heather thought, hard.

"No? Well then, better be........."

"GRYFFINDOR!!!!!!!!!!!"it yells to the Hall. The Gryffindor table erupted in cheers. But loudest of all was her sister, Hannah. She whooped and clapped so hard. Heather made her way to her house table. "Great job, Heather!!!!!!"Kate, Anna, and Hannah all screamed. Hannah fought her way to her sister and gave her a big hug. She beamed and said,"Wait till Mom knows!!" Kate asked,"Is that your sister?" "Yeah,"Heather answers.
