My Sorting Ceremony, My First RP Game, Please read and tell me my mistakes
Luke had always been a bit overwhelmed in crowded areas(Even though he loves to make jokes and laugh and etc. with his friends), and Hogwarts was not crowded, it was a City! Towering walls beautiful self moving Pictures, Ghosts zooming around, A roof that was made to look like the night's sky...
As if all this didn't scare Luke enough, He was really worried about what house he was going to be sorted in. Afterall his parent's both had been in Ravenclaw. He also was expecting the Hat to quickly shout RAVENCLAW when it was over his head...
Running... Running...
I was late! the Hogwarts express would be leaving in any moment now. If I haden't been Running I might have Noticed the people around me making weird Remarks about my trolley. After all I had all kinds of weird Hogwart stickers on it and also stickers of my favorite quidditch team. After about 2 minutes I saw the wall that I was supposed to run through. It was a Mahogany 3cm brick(old fashioned) wall. as I broke my pace and halted I had a look around. It was pretty crouded. I looked at the grand clock on the wall...
IT WAS ALREADY 10:57!
I had to rush so I took a few Steps back and Ran...
I had kind of grown tired because of the fatigue but I didn't care. I was going to Hogwarts! All of time I had dreamt of coming here, The beautiful castle. The thing that keeps all of us till dawn. I was over crowded With questions, What would I like there? What if people don't Like me? What if I am too dumb? What if I'm late? What if...
Suddenly I went black for a second and then there it was Hogwarts Express. Mystifying Walls and a Red and black designed train. On a Bulletin board on my left there was a Poster that said: "THE MINISTRY IS DUMB". I could see plenty of Mother's and Father's in front of me yelling goodbye's to their children. After all this was Hogwarts. They probably wouldn't see Their kids till Christmas. I hurried up on to the train and the moment I was on it started moving. as it gathered pace I hurriedly found a compartment and sat down. After a while of looking around the compartment I suddenly felt that my eyes were droopy. I tried to stay awa... Snore.... Snore.... snore...
Zzz Zzz Zzz
"ANYTHING FROM THE TROLLEY DEARS!" was the sound that woke me up. I knew I hadn't slept long but I felt fully awake. I got up and bought myself a chocolate frog. The card was Herpo the Foul...
I had 3 of him already. The chocolate was as usual out of this world.
After a while had gone, I went and changed into my Robes, and we Reached Hogwarts. I heard Someone with a Warm, Loud, Croaky Voice Shout:"Firs't Years! Fi'st Years! Follo' Me"
CHAPTER 2: As I stepped of the train I met the Person who was calling "Follow Me". He was A HUGE(still an Understatement) Beefy Man with a HUGE(Still an Underestatment
) Beard. I thought that many people would think he is scary, But He looked like a really comforting person with a big heart. As I followed the other first years I shouted "Hello! What is Your Name?"
He said"Oh Ello to you. Me Name's ******
, I'm the Gamekeeper Here. Wha' would yer name Be?"
"Luke" I replied.
"Nice to see You Luke, CARRY On Fir'st Years!"
As we walked for a while we reached a woody small port and there were a lot of wooden boats tied Up.
"4 of ye to each Boat, Go on We might have a storm."
OUT OF CHARACTER NOTE: I had to say this, Sry: RIP Robbie Coltrane ;-;
as we got going I felt little drops of rain falling down. They were slowly gathering up pace.
after a few minutes there was a lot of "Oohs" and "Wows".
I saw HOGWARTS! It was tremendous. and absolute Beauty. I really won't explain much hear cause it would be close to impossible.
"IT IS BRILLIANT" I shouted!
Everybody broke into laughter. Everyone including myself were really tense because of the Sorting coming up and etc. But Now after everyone had laughed, I felt a lot better.
AS we got on the dock The storm had arrived. We all Ran along with ****** to stop ourselves from getting wet. After we Reached the Big woody Entrance, ****** raised a gigantic fist and knocked three times on the castle door.
The door swung open. A tall, black-haired witch in emerald-green robes stood there. She had a very
stern face. She Said: "‘Welcome to Hogwarts, 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 is a very important
ceremony because, while you are here, your house will be
something like your family within Hogwarts. You will
have classes with the rest of your house, sleep in your
house dormitory and spend free time in your house
common room.
The four houses are called Gryffindor, Hufflepuff,
Ravenclaw and Slytherin. Each house has its own noble
history and each has produced outstanding witches and
wizards. While you are at Hogwarts, your triumphs will
earn your house points, while any rule-breaking will lose
house points. At the end of the year, the house with the
most points is awarded the House Cup, a great honour. I
hope each of you will be a credit to whichever house
becomes yours. "
OUT OF CHARACTER NOTE: I copied this from Harry Potter itself because well, What else would +++++++ say?
She led us down a pathway to a Huge Room, The walls were brownish Marble and it was Decorated with Beautiful Pictures. There was a grand Staircase. After following the Stern Looking ++++++, We Reached another Huge Brown Door. When it Swung Open, The Entrance Hall Was Swarmed with Candle Light, Hovering in Mid-air. As I walked past the 4 Long tables filled with Student's from the 4 Houses I felt more Confident. I always Had a knack Of Not being afraid of something when I faced it.
As we walked Towards The Staff Table I tripped and fell Down. A Student Stood from his char and Helped me up. I felt Soooo Embarrassed
.
After Reaching The Headmaster's Speech Stand, We took a sharp left and Professor ++++++ left us for her chair at the Staff Table. The Headmaster Left His chair and Said: "Let The Sorting Begin"
Everyone cheered!
CHAPTER 3:
They brought a scabby Old and weary hat and put it on a char in the front of the staff table. Everyone stared at it so I did too. Suddenly it Started Singing:
OUT OF CHARACTER NOTE: Credit to Ethen.
For days three hundred and sixty four
I sit silently upon a shelf,
No list'ning ear nor wandering eye
Gaze upon my battered self;
Until this night when first year come
To sit upon a three legged stool,
Do my words proclaim to all
The sorting of this school;
Each September the first
It becomes my duty to place,
This child who sits With bewildered face;
My choices be four,
As the founders were numbered,
Creating this school
Whilst I still slumbered;
Gryffindor the brave
Put stock in the gallant,
Slytherin so cunning,
Valued the purest of talent;
Ravenclaw was wise,
And wanted the smartest,
While Hufflepuff the true,
desired diligent artists;
But immortal the four
Certainly were not,
So they gave me some brains
To sort out the lot;
After they'd passed
And left me behind,
I was given the task
Of sorting each kind;
So to Gryffindor I give
The bold and the brave,
To honorable Slytherin
the keenest I save;
For Ravenclaw I leave
The incredibly smart,
For the truest Hufflepuff
The strongest in heart;
At the end of this sorting,
And the last student sat,
I shall silence my lips
And become merely a hat.
"
EVERYONE CHEERED. It was a really good song. I felt more confident and Brainy as the time went on.
I whispered to my self:"Ravenclaw, HERE I COME".
I didn't listen to the sorting of other's that much. I mostly Examined the Teacher's and the Beautiful walls of the Great Hall.
"Whitlock, Luke"
I Froze...
Oh No it was my turn. I suddenly lost all my confidence and I felt superbly queasy. as I walked down the path to the Hat I saw my life flash before my eyes. I sat down on the stool and the placed the Hat on my head.
It Said:
"
hmmmm, Not a Bad Mind. Really ambitious and Smart. Oooh I see a tad bit of Bravery too. hmmm interesting. ummm, Better be GRYFFINDOR!
"
What? Gryffindor? Did I hear right! But, But I'm not Brave. I'm actually pretty Nerdy!
I didn't know what to do. I slowly Got up and joined the Applauding Gryffindors.
My life had taken a New unexpected trajectory. Only Fate would Know what happens on from now...
OUT OF CHARACTER NOTE:

As if all this didn't scare Luke enough, He was really worried about what house he was going to be sorted in. Afterall his parent's both had been in Ravenclaw. He also was expecting the Hat to quickly shout RAVENCLAW when it was over his head...
CHAPTER 1:Out of character note: I have never played a RPG before so sorry if I'm doing things wrong. I would rather talk first person if that's ok. I'm gonna talk first person from now on and if it is wrong send me an owl. Thanks
