Miranda Fear chatted to her close friend that she had known ever since she was little. Her father made her play with him of course. It was only natural, since her father wanted them to get married. But Miranda convinced herself that it would never happen. Things would just be a bit akward even then.
But she wasn't just chatting up a storm because she wanted to. She needed to get the nerves out. She was surrounded by a bunch of other first years. They were talkative too. Or some of them were speechless looking at the high ceiling of the Great Hall. Miranda couldn't even see it. It was just all night sky and stars. Then there was the occasional floating candle here and there. But it wasn't like Miranda never saw it before.
But then the HeadMistress stood up and talked. She was fairly young, but something in her eyes told Miranda that there was something more to the woman that she appeared to be. Or else she wouldn't be Headmistress. Miranda swallowed and tucked her dark brown hair behind her ear. She couldn't wait to be sorted.

Artemis was terrified. There wasn't any other word that describe what she was feeling other than that. She was in the place where the Final Battle was held, where Harry Potter and Voldemort dueled to the death. Literally. Thankfully though,she didn't show just how badly she was terrified. After all, Aunt Selene always taught her to never show someone your weakness. So here she was, acting like nothing was wrong with her and waited to be sorted. What house is she going to be in? Is she going to be in Slytherin like her father? Or in Ravenclaw like her Aunt? Or even going so far as going to Gryffindor like her great,great Grandfather. No matter,she thought to herself, you'll find out soon enough.
"Adams,Jace" The Muggle studies teacher called out with the sorting hat ready in her hand. A knot tighten itself somewhere in her stomach. Ugh,she thought faintly, I think I might throw up. How embarrassing...

Miranda's head straightened towards the front. A girl with slightly curly brown hair was walking up to the sorting hat. It called her name of course, but she looked as white as a piece of paper. Looking at the girl, Miranda guessed that she might go into Hufflepuff. But it wasn't very nice to judge people from their appearance. Even thought that's what Miranda did half of the time. But her uncle taught her to be kinder to people. Her step-mother didn't like that.
That sparked Miranda's thoughts into what house she would be sorted into. Slytherin? That's where most of her family were sorted in. Miranda wouldn't be particularly suprised. Gryffindor? Not the best choice. Miranda wasn't all that brave either. Ravenclaw? Miranda was cunning, but not a genius. Hufflepuff? A possibility, but Miranda felt dizzy just thinking about it. She didn't even know what would happen. She couldn't see anything.
Along her father's side is a line a seers. Miranda so happened to pick up that trait. But it drained a lot of energy out of her. She couldn't even control it. It just came to her, giving her images that mostly mean nothing and then zapping the energy. That's why she is so tired all the time, purple bags under her eyes for all her life. Her father had the same symptoms. But the thing is. Most of the seers with lack of sleep die young.

Artemis watched as each of the the first-years in their large group went to get sorted and into their tables. She and some other people still hadn't been sorted yet.
Ugh,Hurry up already, She pleaded inside her head.

"Miranda Fear," the professor called. It was only seconds later that it registered to Miranda that it was her own name. She then walked up to the sorting hat Miranda sat down in the stool. The hat was very big on Miranda's head, but she didn't mind it. She jumped when it spoke. It spoke of her traits. Some that she knew and some that she didn't. But after contemplating, it shouted, "Slytherin!!"
Sighing with relief, Miranda slid off the stool and found a seat next to some random second year. She then turned her attention back to the front as the claps died down.

"Zeal,Artemis." The Professor called. Artemis with a shaky smile at her new friends, sat herself on the stool. The hat was place on her head and it immediately covered her eyes. Saving her from seeing the thousand pairs of eyes of the student body. The sorting hat began to list all her traits. The hat,after contemplating which house to put her in Gryffindor or Hufflepuff, it shouted,
"HUFFLEPUFF!!" Artemis sighed in relief and plopped herself next to her fellow first-year.
