The Sorting Hat Part 6

Most people clapped while others-including James, Sirius, Remus, Peter, Keely, and Lily-laughed.
"Is he mad?" asked Lily.
"Kinda, but he's a genius." said Sylvia, "You want some potatoes?"
Lily looked around saw that food appeared after Dumbledore's speech. Everyone helped themselves to whatever they liked. Lily helped herself to potatoes, steak, and salad, she was about to eat her potato until she heard someone yell in fright. She looked up and saw a ghost next to Peter.
"Hello," the ghost said, "sorry for the fright."
"Hello, Nicholas, did you have a nice holiday?" asked Silvia.
"Yes and no, for once again my invite to the Headless Hunt has been, once again, denied."
"Sorry about that."
"Wait," said Sirius, "You're Nicholas, as in Nick, as in Nearly Headless Nick?"
"Yes, but I prefer Nicholas, Nick, or Sir Nicholas. If you don't mind." said the ghost.
"How can you be nearly headless?" asked Peter
"Like this." the ghost pulled his head to the side and it was almost completly off. Lily felt like she was going to be sick when she saw this. Nick put his head back into pocision and said, "I see some of you are first years, welcome to Gryffindor. I think you'll enjoy it here." He floated away towards some sixth years and started to have a conversation with them.
"I wonder what the other ghosts are like." said Keely
"I'm sure that you'll get to know most of them." said Sylvia, "Their's hundreds of them that pop in and out of rooms every now and then, except during lessons. They never want to interrupt."
When the feast ended, the gold plates were clean, and the food disappeared. Dumbledore stood up and said, "Id like to tell you the rules of this school. The Dark Forest is strictly forbidden to all students, no students may be out of bounds such as taking a stroll in the middle of the night. And the following items that are prohibted are listed by the caretaker's office. And the House Quidditch team tryouts will be dated on October 23. Now, off to bed. Chop Chop!"
Everybody left their House tables and started to leave the Great Hall.
"First years, follow me!" called out a fifth year girl. James, Sirius, Remus, Keely, Lily, and Peter followed the fifth year girl through corridors and climbed stairs-on their way, they saw pictures move-until they reached a painting of a fat woman.
"Password?" asked the fat woman.
"Pig Snout."the painting moved forward like a door to show a portrait hole to another room. They climbed through the portraight hole to find themselves in a huge room with chairs, a fireplace with a lit fire, and tables.
"This is the Gryffindor common room," said the fifth year girl, "upstairs to the left, boys, is your room and girls, your room is on the right. You'll find that all of your things have allready been brought up."
James, Sirius, Remus, and Peter climbed upstairs, turned left, and entered the boys' dormitory. Their things were indeed, brought up already. The boys put on their pajamas discussing what kind of classes they'll take the next day.
"I hope we don't get lost on our way to class." Peter said in a worried voice.
"Come on, Peter." Sirius said getting into bed and pulling on the covers.
In the Girl's Dorm, Lily and Keely put on their pajamas in private because the blonde girls, Ashley, Hannah, Amber, and Hilary kept talking so loud they couldn't even hear themselves breathe.
"Did you see that cute messy haired boy?" asked Hillary, "I felt like giving him a hug!"
"I know, and what about those other boys," asked Ashley, "you know the one with the brown hair and the other one with the handsome face and black hair too?"
"Yeah, they were cute too!" agreed Amber
"What about Peter?" Keely asked automaticly.
They looked at her like as if she was thick.
"He was kinda cute, but he just wasn't really that cool like those other three." said Hannah
"He's as cool as James, Sirius, and Remus!" said Lily.
"Oooh, you know them?" asked Ashley, "Could you introduce us?"
"Yeah, sure," said Keely, "When H*ll freezes over!"
