Ch-4 Recieving a Wand and Buying Apollo

Soon after Borgin and Burkes we entered Ollivander's the wand ship that all if the English wizards go to. I hoped I got a dragon heart string core like my dad or Phoenix feather 'cause I love Phoenixes!!!

"Wow. It's so dark in here." I thought aloud.

"Yeah, it's always been hun."

"I told you just to call me lex or Lexie"

"Well, sorry!" My dad said in a sassy voice I only here girls use. I had just to laugh. "What you don't like my the way I talk?"

"No it's just sorta embarrassing."

"Sorry."

"It's ok"

"Hello? Who's there?" Said the raspy voice coming from behind the shelves. "Oh." He peeped behind the wands. "Customers! Hello, I'm Ollivander's if you haven't guessed. Are you here for your wand young lady?"

"Um. Yeah."

"Well, come along."

I trailed behind the wand maker up to the counter.

Then he said,"Wait right here."

And he went to go see what end would do best. "Aaahhh" I heard him say. He appeared again. "Try this one." Handing me a kind dark brown wand probably made of mahogany.

"Go ahead take a whirl." I flicked the wand and a vase in the corner broke." I put the wand back on the table.

"Oh. No. No. No." He took the wand back and disappeared in to the store.

He brought me about thirty wands an many broken things later he finally found the one. It was a dark brown/ black wand with a handsome twisted gold handle. "Try this one." I gave it a shot and light from nowhere shined bright and wind blew in my face. "Ah ha! We found a match! It's a very fine one too.

Fifteen and a half inches. Yew and Phoenix feather. I very curious mix."

"I love it." I replied. Phoenix feather yes!

"Well, that wand will be five galleons, two sickles, and a knut."

"Ok. Dad?"

"Here you go Mr. Ollivander." My dad said while giving him the money.

"Thank you. Have a nice day!"

"You too" I said. And we left the shop.

"Well, I think we have everything." My dad stated while looking at the listed required things. "Guess you just need you owl."

"Yup. Wonder which one I'll get."

"Take your time there will be plenty to choose from." And we were of to the owl emporium.

***********************

Now when my dad said plenty to choose from we I thought that would be about forty, fifty owls. Well I was wrong. There were more than two-hundred owls in one room. That's one the first too. Then there's a toad room and a cat room. And then another owl/magical room. I went to the first owl room to pick one out even though I love magical creature and I would love to look at some pets I could have, but I saw a stunning, young, blonde/brown owl with forget me not eyes. I knew that he was the one I wanted.

I went over to the small owl and said, "Hi you want to come home with me?" The owl hootedand I took it as a yes. "Dad! I found what I wanted!"

"Oh my! Isn't he a cute one!"

"Cute? I think he's beautiful!" It says right here in his case that's he's a baby and he'll be twice he's size when full grown. And that will be soon. Owls grow faster than us."

"Well, if he's what you want then you can have him."

"Thanks dad."

"No problem Lex."

So we took him to check out and he was only a few galleons.

"I think i'll name him Apollo after the Greek god what do you think father?" I've been studying Greek mythology in school I thought it was a fantastic subject.

"I think it's perfect. Looks like Apollo if he was a bird."

"That's what I thought."

We walked back to the car in London. And on they way back I thought about my new friends. Especially the twins and Harry Potter.
