NICO'S POV
The walls are lined with wands, there is one small lamp in he middle of the store that barely sheds enough light to illuminate the store. The only other peice of furniture, besides the shelves holding the wands, is a small desk over in the corner, and at the desk sits an old man, the owner, I assume.
He watches closely as I look around the store.
"Um, hi, I'm looking for a wand" I say nervously.
"Ah, yes your friend just came in. Quite the tricky one. Are you by chance a demigod too?"
My hand subconsciously drifts to where my sword is hidden.
"Yes, how do you know this?" I ask. I have a badd feeling about the whole situation.
"Yes, Hecate told me to mention to demigods that it's dangerous to use too much magic, it makes you feel drowsy and can draw monsters to your location" his warning doesn't ease my mood.
I nod "Ok, can I buy my wand now?"
"Ah, the wand chooses the wizard, or in this case, the demigod" he turns to go and tear the place up looking for something.
He finally finds what he's looking for. It's a box, obviously. Out of the box comes a wand. It looks like any other wand. Handle, brownish, and for the most part looks like a stick.
"Give it a wave" Olivander tells me.
And so I give it a wave, only for it to shoot out of my hand, through the window and into the abandoned shop in front of me. Then it explodes.
Oops.
Olivander shakes his head and turns to look for another wand.
"Tell me, what is your relationship with the young man that came in before you?" He asks.
"We are polar opposites but we still get along"
At polar opposite he seems to remember something.
"I just saw it" he mutters under his breath.
"Ah ha!" He says once he finds what he was looking for.
The store owner carefully extracts the wand and hands it to me. "Give it a wave"
In the dim lightning I don't get a very good look at it, especially because it's black.
I give it a wave and I teleport outside the store, surprising Will and the trio.
"Ummmm, hey guys, was that supposed to happen?" I ask.
"I have no idea, mate" Ron replies.
I look down at my wand and it looks exactly like Will's.
I walk back into the store and hand the wand back to Olivander but he tells me to keep it, it choose me.
And so I buy the wand, it has the twin core of Will and made from blackthorn wood.
I walk back outside and see the trio chatting with Will. I think the golden trio will be good allies on this quest, I guess Will was right.
The group notices that I'm here and ask to look at my wand so I pull out the black wand.
As my friends are examining my wand I get a closer look at it.
It's the darkest black I've ever seen. It seems to radiate death and, according to Harry, it's the same design as Volemort's wand.
"Twin core of Will's wand and blackthorn wood" I tell them.
They nod at me and we decide to go for ice cream.
We walk back towards the crowds to the ice cream cart. Surprisingly it's not too busy.
Will gets Vanilla, I get chocolate, Hermione gets butterscotch, Ron gets pumpkin and Harry gets mint chip.
"So, how did you two meet?" Asks Hermione trying to start a conversation.
"We met at a summer camp that we go to. It's for kids with ADHD and dyslexia, we met the other two American transfers there too" Will says before I can reply.
"Do you think we could meet the others tomorrow? We still need to get the rest of our school supplies so we could see you here tomorrow" Ron says hopefully.
"That could be arranged, but I don't think that they'll be spending the whole day with us, they've probably met some friends" I say interrupting Will.
"We're staying at the leaky cauldron, we can meet there tomorrow" Will states once he can get his word in.
Harry smiles. "It's a plan"
We spend the rest of the time making small talk. The sun is starting to set when we finally start to part ways.
"Yeah, yeah, you where right. It was a good idea to ask the golden trio" I admit to Will once we can talk freely about our quest.
Will smiles "We should head back to the leaky cauldron and meet up with Annabeth and Percy to talk over our quest details"
At the inn we see Percy and Annabeth saying bye to a blond haired boy.
In August I'm going to move the updates to every other Friday.
