Pencil Sharpener

What are the four houses in the Harry Potter books! That’s right! You pulled out your pencil sharpener and your pencil, and you started sharpening your pencil like you did before. The sharpener got hot and started glowing and the world started spinning again. After a short time, you decided to stop turning your pencil and the world stopped spinning as well.

When you looked around, you saw that you were on a train. In the train cart where you were, there were four other kids. The one closest to the window was a girl who had dark hair and was quietly reading a book. Next to her sat another girl with short blond hair who was talking to the boy sitting across from her. He had a toad in his hands. The last person in the cart was also sitting against the window, but across from the girl who was reading. He had brown hair and scar on his cheek. You remembered having seen the Harry Potter movies, but you did not recognize any of the people in the cart.

“I can’t wait to learn about all the magical animals in the world!” said the boy with the toad. “Yea, that will be fun! I can’t wait to explore and go on adventures!” replied the blonde girl. The boy with a scar joined the conversation “None of that matters, I will focus on becoming the most powerful wizard in the wizarding world”. The girl who was reading decided to also speak “Then maybe you should start reading as well, start learning instead of talking big”.

The scarred boy stood up and made a fist with his hand “What was that nerd, you think you’re better than me?!” The blonde girl also stood up “Don’t touch her!” The dark haired girl covered her face with her book to protect her face. Toad boy tried calming down the situation “Hey, no one is better than anyone, no one needs to get hurt, just sit back down everyone”. The blonde girl and the scarred boy looked at each other for a short time before the scarred boy said “Fine, I can’t wait to get off of this train and sorted into the Slytherin house so that I meet people like me”.

“What about you? what are you looking most forward to about going to Hogwarts?” asked the boy with the toad while looking at you.
