Sirius Orion Black-

The Hogwarts Express lurches to a halt after what feels like a lifetime. I catch sight of the legendary castle looming in the distance, its towering presence both awe-inspiring and slightly intimidating. 239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsW0NKQPTjd

A tall giant, who goes by the name-Rubeus Hagrid is hollering and ushering us into carriages. I am shoved into a carriage with James and another boy named Remus Lupin. The sound of students chattering and the occasional hoot of an owl fills the air as the carriage begins to move.
I introduce myself to Remus and strike up a conversation with both him and James. Remus Lupin is a kind and intelligent boy, with a calm demeanor that instantly puts me at ease.
As the carriage rumbles along the path leading to Hogwarts, we exchange stories and discuss our expectations for the upcoming school year. James, who seems to be full of mischief and energy, shares his excitement about joining the Quidditch team and causing a bit of trouble. Remus, on the other hand, expresses his eagerness to delve into the magical curriculum and explore the vast library at Hogwarts.
The ride is both thrilling and breathtaking, as I catch glimpses of the enchanting landscape outside. The towering trees, the shimmering lake, and the occasional glimpse of magical creatures all contribute to the magical atmosphere surrounding Hogwarts. Eventually, the carriage comes to a stop, signaling our arrival at the school.
I step out of the carriage and make your way toward the entrance of Hogwarts Castle. The beginning of my magical journey is about to unfold, and the castle's grand doors await our arrival.
Still in a state of awestruck wonder after the brief voyage, the group of first years starts filling into the Great Hall. The enchanted ceiling of the Hall is adorned with countless floating candles, casting a warm and flickering light that dances across the room. It's as if the stars themselves have descended to illuminate the students' path.
I've always longed to attend Hogwarts, even when I barely understood what it was about and that's all that mattered to me.
Suddenly, the chatter dissipates as the doors at the end of the Great Hall swing open, and Professor McGonagall, the Deputy Headmistress, strides in with a long parchment in hand.
''When I call your name , you will come forward and put the hat on to be sorted into a house'-announces the Professor. There's a brown hat on a stool-known as the Sorting Hat.
A rush of adrenaline courses through my veins. I swear if the hat tries to place me in Slytherin- I'm gonna burn it. There's no way in hell I will be put there.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdXPyveUUi4

One by one, the professor calls out the name of the students and we watch them getting sorted into their houses. James and Remus- both get sorted into Gryffindor. 239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSHV1H5uqo2

I recognize the girl from the train. When the hat is placed on her head, it shouts-'Ravenclaw' in the blink of an eye. 239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpab6oqJldK

I leap up onto the platform confidently and take a seat on the stool. The Professor places the hat upon my head and suddenly..I hear a voice echoing in my mind-
'Hmm....a Black but a rebel- You dare to refuse the house of Salazar, boy? '239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ080Budemqb

'Gryffindor!-' shouts the hat.
Yes, yes, yes!!239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5UBziMiiuh
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9epcFa76J8
I practically bounce off the stool. There is a stunned silence on the Slytherin table but slowly a round of applause and cheering blooms from the table lined with red and gold. James is grinning from ear to ear and so am I as I take my place on the table- the place where I really belonged.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8E2vC6gq2O

'Good job, mate'-James thumps me on the back. ' By the way, did that hat talked to you?''239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXUZGWYhskX

As the Sorting Ceremony nears its end, I observe the redhead girl, Lily, being sorted into Gryffindor. Her fiery hair and the determination in her eyes seem to perfectly align with Gryffindor.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIJmW37z8Te

Snivellus gets into Slytherin. Well, No surprises there.
Now, it is time for the other Shafiq sister, Ahava. To be honest, she's very pretty- with brown eyes and brown hair. I recall my encounter with her on the train and how her thoughts on Slytherin left me somewhat irritated. I hope she's not gonna end up with that slime.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡleJ4dbF4gw

I watch keenly as she walks to the stool. She holds her head high but I notice the way her hands are shaking. The hat is taking its time with her. And at last it declares-
"Slytherin".239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqciq0HflVd
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQBEBLUQEpk
I am appalled at once . Beneath a pleasant exterior she may be adept at concealing a potentially harmful nature .239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqGJ2qvWf1j
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxe4mLNETR8
She appears to be shocked as she slowly gets up from the stool and walks to the Slytherin table where Snivellus gives her a high-five.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfillt1yApD
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhU4bT8CPud
When our eyes meet, I glare at her- to which she just flinches and averts her eyes .

The Great Hall erupts into cheers and applause as Headmaster Dumbledore concludes his welcoming speech. Finally the long-awaited feast is about to commence.
With a wave of Dumbledore's hand, the plates and goblets are filled with mouthwatering food and drink. The sight is truly a feast for the eyes. The students, hungry after the eventful day, eagerly reach for the delectable treats before them.
As I join in the merriment, laughter and conversation fill the hall. The sense of community and excitement envelops me, as I realize that I am now part of this magical world, surrounded by friends, fellow students, and the incredible wonders of Hogwarts. With each bite and sip, I relish in the flavors and the company around you.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYKAAQWsBJ2

As I lie in bed, unable to find sleep, the soft snores of my dorm-mates filling the air, restlessness takes hold.
I get up and drink some water, looking out of the window for a while. 239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdfVPiLHGq6

Despite the lingering worry of receiving a howler from my parents, I make a conscious effort not to let it consume me. My path at Hogwarts is my own, it's no the expectations or desires of my family.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu6xuxajVH3
239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcNljajsJdq
I am here to forge my own identity and be true to myself , even if it means diverging from the path set by my parents.
