Adeline shot through the cold air.
Straight on to a bookshop's floor.
Adeline got up, wiped her eyes and read the sign "Flourish and Blott's".
Professor Sprout was waiting by a bookshelf.
"About time! Miss Adeline!" She says making a fuss about Adeline soot stained jumper.
"I'm okay!" Says Adeline, brushing herself down.

Adeline exchanged her muggle money for Galleons, Sickles and Knuts.
The books were very expensive. Adeline managed to afford everything.
Just enough room for a wand..
Adeline entered Olivanders Wand Shop. She studied the high shelves with messy, miniature boxes on.
Around the corner, a mad looking old man swung around on his ladder.
"Miss Adeline!" He gasps.
Adeline smiles.
"Here for your wand, I suppose!" He grins.
"Of course. And h-how can I- You know.." she asks, confused.
"Give it a good wave of course!"
Olivander passed her a dark brown wand with a twisting, vine wrapped around it.
"Unicorn hair core, Dark taupe wood, eleven inch." He tells her.
Adeline waves the wand. Olivanders ladder falls over.
"No! No! Lucky I wasn't on that.." he simpers, over a breath of relief.
He hands her a light wand with patterns up the spine.
"Dragon heartstring, light oak, nine and a half inches" Olivander tells Adeline.
Adeline waved it, hoping for it to be the one! A brick came flying through the ceiling, landing on the wooden floor with a crash.
"Nope! Definitely not!" Olivander gasps, pulling a green box from the shelf behind him.
"Try this!" He tells her.
He handed her a wooden wand with a bumpy pattern up to the middle, where it broke off into a different colour.
"Unicorn hair core, Rowan wood, ten inches" Olivander explains.
As he says, Adeline waves the wand.
A golden light shines apon her, lighting up her small face.
"This is the one." Olivander explains. "It's chosen you!"
***Adeline arrived home quickly, with all her school supplies.
"Mum!" Adeline shouts. "I'm back!"
"Addy! Dear!" Shouts her mother. "Are you okay?"
"More than okay!" Smiles Adeline, showing her all of the supplies she had gotten from Diagon Alley.
Night fell quickly in the small house. Adeline jumped into bed, reading about all the spells she could learn.
She flicked the page to 'Orchideous' the spell that professor Sprout had used earlier. The pretty flowers.
Adeline closed her curtains on the blinding moon. Fallen asleep.
