Callista woke up with the sun shining in her face, she grumbled and tried hiding her head under a pillow to try and get some more sleep but she groaned when she felt one of the cats pawing at her face. She peeked and eye own to see Tufty sitting there, she sat up and pushed her hair back.

"I'm up, I'm up. Your worse then Tibbles, Tufty." The cat seemed to glare at her before it jumped off the bed and walked out of her room. She stuck her tongue out at the door and swung herself out of bed. 

She walked into the bathroom taking a quick shower and pulled her hair into a ponytail and got dressed wearing a red v-neck sweater, worn out jeans, and her white converses again. She slid down the banister again and landed softly this time before tip toeing into the kitchen hopig not to wake up Mrs.Figg. When she got to the middle of the kitchen she noticed that Mrs.Figg was already sitting there ready to go.

"Guess you already beat me to it." She laughed nervously and glanced down at the tile floor kicking her at it nervously.

"Come on dear, we don't have all day."

Cali nodded quickly and grabbed her brown leather jacket from the coat rack and followed Mrs.Figg outside. "How are we getting to this.." She whispered quietly at the end. "Leaky Cauldron."

Mrs.Figg smiled slightly, "Well, we are getting a ride there." Cali frowned slightly when she heard a popping noise, she turned around to look at a elderly man standing in robes with a smile on his face that lit up his oale blue eyes.

"Ah Ms. Black, I've been waiting ages to meet you." 

Callista gave a polite smile and nodded. "Um thank you...?" She didn't know what to call him, she was still a little freaked out that he had popped out of no where.

"My name is Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore. But you can call me Professor Dumbledore. But I'm afraid we don't have much time for anything else seeing we need to get you to Diagon Alley. So if you wouldn't mind." He held out his arm to her, she looked over to see Mrs.Figg gone, she frowned slightly but held onto his arm.

"Sir, I mean Professor. How are we getting there?"

She looked up at him and saw him smirk before shaking his head. "Better to show you my dear. But hold your breathe on the count of three. One. Two. Three."

Cali took a deep breathe before she felt the sensation of being sucked through a small tube and closed her eyes. When it stopped she opened her eyes quickly and let out a breathe feeling the world around her spin.

"What the bloody hell was that!" She screamed and looked up at him while putting her hands on her thighs to steady herself.

"That my dear was apparition. Something you'll learn later in your studies. But I must be off. If you go in there you'll find Hagrid, he isn't hard to miss." He pointed to an old looking pub just behind her.

Before she could say anything he disappeared again, and no one seemed to notice anything. She sighed and walked inside the Leaky Cauldron everyone seemed to stop and stare at her. She could feel her face flush pink and she looked down at the ground before glancing up to see this very tall and large man standing in front of her.

"Yer Ms. Black right?" She nodded and gulped slightly. "Good! I am Rubeus Hargid. Keeper of Keys and Grounds at Hogwarts and now Care of Magical Creatures teachers." He took her hand in his large one and shook her hand.

Callista smiled slightly and nodded. "Nice to meet you Hagrid." She titled her head up so she could see him fully. She felt so tiny compared to him!

"Alright, this way Ms.Black!" They weaved through the bar before she heard screaming come from a boy with red hair holding what seemed like a rat and a girl with wavy and slightly bushy hair holding a large fat cat.
