A/N YO! I'm dedicating this chapter to @xChrysanthemum because she is mine and no one can have her (loljk) I'm actually dedicating this to her because she is a big supporter of my fanfiction and she's great :D. GO FOLLOW HER OR ELSE. Anyways, on to the PHANSPLOSION!
Today was the day. Dan cautiously followed his mother into a dingy bar called the Leaky Cauldron. He had already received his letter, and he was going to get his school supplies. They reached the back of the bar and a brick wall. Dan watched as his mother tapped the bricks with her wand in seemingly random places.
"Ready to have your mind blown?" His mother whispered. He nodded, and the brick wall started opening up, unfolding. He watched in awe as a new world was being presented to him.
"That was lit, yo!" His mother said, trying to dab. She ended up looking like a scared pigeon, flapping it's wings.
"Just stop, mum. Nobody wants to see that," Dan assured her. He stepped outside, and was surrounded by sights. An elderly woman, selling screaming books. A little boy racing around on a broomstick. He walked into a shop, called Eeylop's Owl Emporium. Owls, toads, and cats were in cages.
"Go ahead, pick one," his mother urged. Dan ran off, looking at everything. He noticed a boy, around his age, staring at an owl. He had jet black hair, with blue eyes. (A/N I'm aware 11 year old Phil was ginger, don't shoot plz) He went up to the boy.
"Hi. I'm Dan," Dan introduced himself to the boy.
"I'm Phil. Man, isn't this awesome?" Phi asked, gesturing towards the whole building. He crouched down next to a snowy owl.
"Hi, the name's Phil, how are you doing?" He whispered to the owl. He smiled sadly to Dan.
"I don't have money," Phil mumbled. Dan understood, and knew what he had to do.
"Let's go get ice cream, I'll pay. My mom is like a famous wizard or something, idk, but she only told me about this world a couple days ago when I got my letter," Dan explained, urging Phil to get ice cream with him.
"It would be my pleasure. The person who brought me here said to meet her at Flourish and Blotts at noon," Phil said.

Dan and Phil took a seat in Florian Fortescues's Ice Cream Parlor. Two girls suddenly sat down at their table.
"Hi! You guys look like first years, and we're losers so we have no friends. Do you mind?" The first girl asked. She had tanned skin, shoulder length brown hair, and hazel eyes. The second girl had black hair, dark skin, and brown eyes. She also wore glasses.
"No, go ahead. We kinda met today," Dan said, pointing towards Phil.
"We should probably introduce ourselves. My name is Lauren, and this is my....friend.....Cadence!" Lauren said, giggling nervously.
"You know, you would've made it less obvious if you stuck a note to your forehead," Cadence snapped at Lauren. She shrugged it off, blushing.
"Wait, are you guys..." Phil started.
"FINE! WE ADMIT IT! WE'RE DATING!" Lauren yelled, Cadence smacked her lightly.
"Um, I was going to ask if you were going to order," Phil responded.
"Oh! Yeah, cool, whatever, coolio, cool beans, that's chill fam..." Lauren rambled.
"Lauren, you are such a dork," Cadence said, and pulled Lauren in for a light kiss. Lauren tittered nervously.
"So! Now that THAT'S taken care of, what house do you think you're going to be in?" Cadence asked, smirking at Lauren.
"Gryffindor, for the win!" Dan yelled, pumping his fist.
"I guess Hufflepuff. I seem loyal...." Phil started.
"You can be in any house! My big brother told me that the Sorting Hat, like, can look inside your head. He wanted to be in Slytherin, and the Soring Hat said, 'okay', and that was his house," Lauren explained. Dan and Phil could sense that she was VERY talkative and social.
"I have a feeling we're going to be very good friends," Dan finished.
A/N Bye for now, my....SPARKLY MANGOES! idk

FanfictionDan always felt isolated from the world. He has always felt as if he was...different in some way. He hadn't been able to put this feeling into words, until his eleventh birthday. Thanks to @oldschoolphil for making the cover
