Crimson was on the train, it was his first year going to Hogwarts Academy and he couldn’t help but feel nervous. He looked down at his wand, his wand was an 11" Blood wood with Manticore Barb Core. He placed his wand away as he was looking for somewhere to sit. He looked into a nearby booth to see someone along with an open. “Um, excuse me? Sorry to disturb you, but is it alright if I sit here?” He asked.
As they settled into their seats and the train blew its whistle they set off. After the initial hour of the trip she pulled Crimson into magic practice. From basic levitation to some simple spells.
She was thoroughly surprised by how quickly he’d been picking up everything she was showing him. It was oddly unnatural but she decided not to mention anything. As they decided to stop the train did too. And they unloaded and took the boats across the lake to Hogwarts.
And as they crossed the other side Jinx pulled Crimson to follow her. “Come on….you can stay with me. I have to go find my friend” she said to him. As they took off.
“Your friend?” Crimson asked confused as he followed her. “Why wasn’t your friend with you on the way to Hogwart” He asked her.
A blonde suddenly bumped into them. “JACKIE!” She exclaimed showing probably the most emotion she’d shown the whole time since she encountered Crimson. The two hug.
Jackie was a blonde, shorter then Jinx. She had bright green eyes and fair skin. “Wh-who’s th-this?” She asked.
“This is Crimson…..I met him on the train” Jinx explained. She looked at Crimson, “Crimson this is my best friend Jackie….Jackie Conners” she introduced them.
Crimson smiled and extended his hand towards Jackie. “It’s a pleasure to meet you, Jackie.”
The blonde looked mildly stunned at him being so nice and almost elegant in his statement. She shook his hand. “N-nice t-to meet you t-too” she spoke.
Jinx smiled at the interaction then started pushing them into the great hall. “Cmon!!!! We got sit down! They’re gonna sort us soon!!!!” She spoke with some unexpected excitement.
He was surprised by Jinx’s excitement, before turning to Jackie and asking. “How do you think they’re going to sort us?”
Jackie leaned over, “Th-the sorting h-hat…..” she said simply with mystic and excitement in her eyes pulling him behind her. Jinx had found them seats. Jackie took a seat had Crimson do the same.
Crimson took a seat as well, he looked around the Great Hall in awe. Drinking in the sight of everything.
An older man came into the main platform at the front of the room when everyone had finally been seated. Jinx leaned over and explained things to Crimson. How the old man was the headmaster dumbledore and pointed and explained this was the dinning Hall. When she finished explaining she went quiet.
The Headmaster spoke up, “Now it is time for the sorting” he said and then Professor Magonacal ((it sure I butchered the name)) stood up and set an old hat on a stool at the front of the large room. She opened a large scroll, “now when I call your name you will sit down. And I will place the sorting hat on you and that will determine your house” she explained simply.
Crimson was amazed by seeing and hearing about the sorting hat. Though, he was more amazed by seeing Professor Dumbledore being the Headmaster of Hogwarts.
As they worked through the list it wasn’t long till the woman called out, “Jennifer Abernathy!” Jinx crumbles at the sound of her full name. She then stood up. Walked to the front. Sitting on the stool. As the sorting hat neared her head it spoke like it had been doing. Calling out, “SLITHERIN” and jinx showed a content expression at hearing the house she was sorted into. She moved from her Chair and to the Slitherin table. Sitting next to other first years.
Jackie was called next, “HUFFLEPUFF” and Jackie was excited though frowned knowing she wasn’t in the same house as Jinx. She moved to her table.
“Crimson Blade.” Crimson heard his name being called. He got out of his seat and sat on the stool. The hat was lowered on him, but the hat seemed perplexed. “Hmm, strange one, strange one indeed. New to magic, but already a fast learner. Might as well put you in RAVENCLAW!” Crimson’s eyes widen, though disappointed that he didn’t end up in either house with Jinx or Jackie. He got up and walked to his houses table.
Jinx and Jackie both smiled and clapped for him. The raven claw table also clapped. They continued on on the list.
“Ronald Weasley.” Ron walked up and sat on the stool, the sorting hat placed on his head. “GRYFFINDOR!” Ron ran to the Gryffindor table.
“Granger, Hermione!”Hermione almost ran to the stool and jammed the hat eagerly on her head.
“GRYFFINDOR!” shouted the hat.
There weren’t many people left now. “Moon” “Nott” “Parkinson” then a pair of twin girls, “Patil” and “Patil” then “Perks, Sally-Anne” and then, at last – “Potter, Harry!”
As Harry stepped forward, whispers suddenly broke out like little hissing fires all over the hall.
“Potter, did she say?”
The Harry Potter?“
The last thing Harry saw before the hat dropped over his eyes was the hall full of people craning to get a good look at him. Next second he was looking at the black inside of the hat. He waited.
Hmm,” said a small voice in his ear. “Difficult. Very difficult. Plenty of courage, I see. Not a bad mind either. There’s talent, oh my goodness, yes – and a nice thirst to prove yourself, now that’s interesting… So where shall I put you?”
Harry gripped the edges of the stool and thought, Not Slytherin, not Slytherin.
“Not Slytherin, eh?” said the small voice. “Are you sure? You could be great, you know, it’s all here in your head, and Slytherin will help you on the way to greatness, no doubt about that – no? Well, if you’re sure – better be GRYFFINDOR!”
Jinx knew of Harry someone her father and mother had told her about. He was very small. Very meek, in comparison to what she might’ve expected.
Jackie had heard something’s about him but overall there was nothing specific or amazing about him that she knew of. Just some stories.
