As they raced down the alley way Harry couldn’t believe the sights they were seeing, newt’s eyes, chocolate frogs, bewitched cauldrons. All of a sudden they came to a stop when they heard someone calling out.
“Draco!” A voice yelled, it sounded as though it came from a man not much older than Draco, “What do you think you are doing! Running around like a lunatic. Have you no shame, do you want the other prefects to think I have an animal for a brother?” Harry turned around to see a boy with shoulder length hair walking towards them.
“Oh bug off Aurelius, it’s not like I was running that fast.” He said in an annoyed voice, he turned to Harry, “Harry this is my brother Aurelius, he is a fifth year prefect. Aurelius, this is my friend Harry Potter.”
Aurelius’ eyes flicked up to Harry’s fore head, then he met his eyes, “It’s nice to meet you Harry. I hope my younger brother hasn’t been to much of a prick.” He extended a hand which Harry shook. “Mum and dad are waiting for you in the wand shop you better go find them. I hope to see you get sorted into Slytherin among my brother Harry.” And with that he went into the apothecary.
Harry and Draco came to a stop outside a shop with the sign, “Olivander’s” hanging in the doorway, Draco held open the door as they both came in. Inside there was a stern looking man with long blonde hair and a slim woman with light blonde hair. They both turned to face Draco.
“What kept you so long Draco we have been waiting for you for a good ten minutes.” The man said
“Sorry father, I met Harry in the robe shop and we lost track of time while we were talking, then we ran into Aurelius on the way over here” Draco said in an apologetic voice.
“I dare say.” His mother began, “If it isn’t Harry Potter. It’s very nice to meet you Harry, are you here with anyone?”
“I’m here with Hagrid, except I lost him after we left the robe shop.”
“Oh” his father said with distaste, “Well we will probably find him in the leaky cauldron after we have done our shopping, you are welcome to stay with us if you like Harry.”
“I would very much appreciate that Mr. Malfoy, thank you.” Harry said, trying to sound as dignified as he could.
At that moment an old man came out from the book shelves carrying a rectangular box, “Here we are.” He said in a shaky voice, “Oak, Dragon heartstring, 10 inches. Please try this Mr. Malfoy”
Draco took the wand, and swung it downwards, at that moment streamers popped out into the air before them all, Harry watched with amazement. Then the old man turned to him, “Ahh Mister Potter, I was wondering when you would be coming in for your wand. Just a moment.” Harry stood there as the old man disappeared into the shelves, then a thought came before him, what if none of the wands worked for him and he was kicked out of the shop and forced to go back to the Dursleys. But that thought was interrupted when the old man came shuffling back with multiple cases.
“Here you are Mr. Potter, Maple, phoenix feather, seven inches” he handed the wand to Harry. Harry had hardly raised the wand when Mr. Olivander snatched it back, “No, no. Let’s try, ebony, unicorn hair, eight and a half inches.” Harry held it in his hand and started to wave it upward before the man snatched it out of his hand again, “tricky customer eh, don’t worry we will find one. Here try this, Holly, phoenix feather, eleven inches.”
Harry took the wand and felt sudden warmth in his fingertips. He brought the wand waving down. Green and Silver streamers shot out of the wand. Draco clapped while Mr. Malfoy smiled, “Excellent show harry. Now we must be off, he have plenty of shopping left to do.” With that Harry paid seven gold galleons for his wand and left the shop.
As they passed the owlery harry caught a glimpse of all of the owls there. “You don’t have owl do you Harry?” Mr. Malfoy asked
“No sir” Harry replied politely.
“Well we will have to fix that won’t we? Go on go pick an owl” He said with a grin as Harry meandered through the cages. He finally decided to get a spotted eagle owl. But as he started to pay for him at the counter Mr. Malfoy stopped him, “Now now Harry, I’ll pay for that, think of it as a belated or early birthday present” Harry went beet red and couldn’t stop stuttering his thanks.
The rest of the day went magnificently, he marveled at racing brooms and bought a book on quidditch to study over the rest of the summer, he had peculiar tasting ice cream, then at the end of the day they found Hagrid wandering the streets looking into shops and caught his eye.
“There yeh are Harry!” you could definitely smell the alcohol on his breath, “Thanks for taking care of him Lucius, glad yeh found him.”
“Don’t mention it Hagrid.” He said while wrinkling his nose, “Harry, if you need anything don’t hesitate to owl us. Have a great summer” And with that his new friend was waving off hind the distance. And his summer fun came to an end as he went back to the Dursleys.

Well that’s all for this chapter, hoped you all liked it. Review for anything. Hoped you liked Aurelius, I will reveal what his name means in the next chapter.
