'First up I should go get a wand since mine won't work now that I have all the blocks off.' I thought to myself as I walked into knockturn alley. I walk for a few minutes before I stand in front of a shop. It had a wooden board written ' Gregorvitch wands' in really creepy writing style. "Haiden Riddle or Haiden Gaunt Slytherin, I have been waiting for your arrival." An  old croaky voice said as I entered. 'Jeez what is with creepy wand makers and know all about your fucking life!' I think to myself. I, however, had my perfect emotionless mask, up and said in a cold, calm voice "You must be Gregorvitch." An old man then came out to the front of the room. "Yes. I believe you are here for a wand?" "Yes. I would like a custom made one." "Of course. This way please." I followed Gregorvitch to another room with shelves stocked up with different prices of wood and substances in small tubes and boxes.

He made me stand  in front of a desk and said,“ i  will put different kinds of wood on the desk, close your eyes and let your aura out. Let your magic choose.” I nod, showing that I understood. I closed my eyes and let my aura out, my magic surrounding me. I hear a fearful and shocked gasp from Gregorvitch at how powerful my aura was. I internally smirk and reach my hand out in front of the desk. I feel my magic pulling at three items. I frown and ask “My magic is pulling at three different kinds of wood. Is that okay?” i heard another shocked gasp from him and then he said”Yes that’s alright. Your aura is too powerful for one kind of wood. Now first pick up the one with the weakest pull.” I pick up the one which is at the far left and hand it in the direction he is standing in. “Ceder. It means you are very hard to manipulate and apparently are ‘dangerous fed to those who challenge them thoughtlessly.

’ This will be your handle. Now the one with the strongest pull.” i nod as i listen to him and then pick up the one on the far right. I hear him gasp again. “Elder. It contains powerful magic, but scorns to remain with any owner who is not the superior of his or her company; it takes a remarkable wizard to have this as a wand wood. This will be the tip of your wand. Now the last one.'' I smirk. Elder huh. I then pick up the last one which is at the very middle and hand it to him. “Yew. It's owner is often notorious, extremely powerful and extremely rare. This will be the middle of the wand.” I nod. “Now the cores. Follow the same procedures.” he keeps the other woods away and now the different wand cores take their places. I again close my eyes and pick out the ones which my magic pulls at. “ Thestral hair.a tricky substance that only wizards that have mastered death can control. Basilisk Venom. Very rare as the survivors of the venom can only choose it.

A feather from a shadow phoenix- the rarest of kinds. Dragon heartstring. , dragon heartstrings produce wands with the most power, and which are capable of the most flamboyant spells. Unicorn tail hair. Unicorn hair generally produces the most consistent magic, and is least subject to fluctuations and blockages. Very powerful. How very powerful. In all my years of making wands.. Never have I ever come across someone with so much power who could choose these cores. This wand will take 2 and a half hours to make. You could wait here or come and collect it after it's done.”

'hmmm..I have 2 and a half hours with me, I should do the rest of my shopping." I walk out of the shop and walk further into knockturn alley before I suddenly feel a pull towards a shop, a pet shop to be exact. I go inside the shop and feel my magic pulling me towards four different directions. I sigh and walk towards the back of the store to see a huge black snake hissing and attacking the cage continuously as if wanting to be let out.

$Hey there what's wrong?$ I hissed at it in Parseltongue. $Ah. A ssspeaker. Your magic pulled you towards me,that means you are my master and I, your familiar.$ I saw the snake settle down in his cage, staring up at me curiously with his startling Avada Kedavra eyes. $If you are my familiar then I'll definitely get you out of here but first tell me what kind of snake you are and whether you have a name or not.$ I said to him.

$I am a basssilisssk-python-kobra hybrid and no I do not have a name. You will have to name me,massster.$ I nodded to show him that I understand.(Wow...Who knew that having a fucked up past will result in me having powerful familiars.) $Very well then I will name you Caligo, it means darkness in Latin and it will really sssuit you with your aura.$ Caligo nodded his head seemingly satisfied with his name."Well let's get you out of this cage then," I said with a sigh.

I call the owner of the shop and told him that I would be buying Caligo and three more.The shopkeeper looked at me wide eyed and said,"Are you sure you want this snake, sir? It is not friendly really and has already poisoned seven other people who have tried to buy him,I could show you other snakes if you would like." I shake my head and say,"No I want this snake as he is my familiar.I also feel three other familiars of mine in your shop"

"Very well sir, you can take all your familiars and you can pay in the front of the shop once you find them." The shopkeeper opens the cage and I raise my hand to let Caligo slither onto my arm. I then go towards the right side of the shop from where I can feel two pulls. I reach and I see a sealed off section. I walk in to find only two cages side by side. In one cage lay a white furry bundle and in the other cage was a growling wolf which was at least 2 times bigger than any normal wolf with misty black eyes and blurry dark gray lines zig-zagging across it's pitch black fur. If you stared at his eyes you could see a thunderstorm in them, black lightning destroying anything and everything it touches.

And if you looked at the marks and concentrate you could make out that the lines are actually lightning… the look it was giving me would have anyone have a heart attack on the spot but somehow deep down I knew that it-he -it was a male, don't ask how I knew that- would not harm me.

I heard Caligo hiss in appreciation simultaneously the shopkeeper behind me gulped audibly,"T-the-them...s-sir..?" the shopkeeper whispered with a panic stricken look on his face. "Yes" I said with a smirk. "S-s-sir these are highly dangerous magical creatures." "Oh really? Tell me about them." "W-well that white animal is a nine tailed winter fox. It does well under normal and extremely cold atmospheres but has very low tolerance to heat. It also has magical elemental power, it can control and manipulate crystal, snow and ice." [If you get the reference, you can become my brother's best friend. Hint: it's from a childish cartoon/anime]

" And that wolf is an extremely rare storm wolf . It has elemental power, he can control and manipulate anything and everything relating lightning,thunder,electricity and rain. It's reflexes and speed is what you would call 'lightning fast'."
