The Abused and Unwanted Weasley

Chapter Four: School Supplies and The Weasley's

I stood excitedly waiting for Auntie Sissy to fix my dress.

She had my red hair up in a crown braid.

"I'm fine Auntie." I tried to complain. She just smiled. "It's nice having a little girl to dress up." She said, kissing my cheek. Draco came downstairs, he was dressed nicely as well. "You look good Toria." Draco said to me. I smiled. "Same to you." I said with a smile. Lucius smiled at the two of us. "Come along, lets go." He said quietly. I took Auntie's hand and Draco held Lucius's. There was a pop and I felt I was being squeezed through a tube. Suddenly we were in Diagon Alley. I smiled and ran down the street to Gringotts. "Hello Redhook!" I said as soon as I entered. The goblin smiled at me. "Hello to you Lady Peverell." He said in response. The two of us took a cart down to my large vault. He gave me a bag full of money that had a weightless extension charm on it. I took the bag, which looked like a small pull tie coin purse, and held it tightly as we rode back up. I said goodbye to Redhook and gave him a hug before meeting back up with the Malfoy's. "Lets get your robes next, then we'll get your books." Auntie says, walking me to Madam Malkin's shop. Uncle Lucius and Draco went somewhere else. I stood up on the pedestal and she measured me and gave me my robes. Once we were done we walked into the book store, just as a black haired boy was getting his picture taken with Gilderoy Lockhart. Draco frowned. "Lets get our books Draco." I said, pulling him away to where the books we needed were. After we got our books and paid for them I asked Auntie if Draco and I could look around. I absolutely loved books. She nodded and smiled. I raced upstairs to look around, Draco followed after me. Soon Draco saw that black haired boy again. "Well well, stupid Harry Potter can't even walk into a bookstore without making the front page." He sneered, the black haired boy glared at Draco. "Leave him alone!" A familiar red haired girl cut in. I immediately recognized my twin sister. "Well Potter, got yourself a girlfriend." Draco said with a laugh. I touched his arm. "Lets get out of here Draco." I said quietly but it was too late. The other Weasley's started to show up. My former family seemed shocked to see me. "Victoria?! What are you doing here?" I heard my former father ask. I looked down. Draco was about to say something but Uncle Lucius showed up thankfully. "Draco, Victoria, its time to leave." He said, giving my former family a forced smile before leaving, but he accidentally bumped into Ginny, making her drop her cauldron. I felt sorry when I saw it was full of second hand books. Uncle Lucius bent down and picked it up for her, slipping a black book into it. I was confused but didn't comment. Next Auntie took me to Olivanders. "Ah, Miss Weasley, I wondered when I'd see you. Your twin was in here a little while before you." He said, smiling at me. He waved his wand and a tape measure starting measuring me. "It's actually Peverell now. I was emancipated when I was ten." I explained. Olivander looked at me, setting down the wand box he had. "Is that so?" He asked. He immediately began searching for wands in a completely different part of the shop. Wand after wand he gave me to try but none of them worked. Eventually he gave me a beautiful reddish wand with swirls up the handle.

As soon as the wand touched my hand I felt a warmth spread throughout my body. "This is the one." I said with a smile. "It's a very rare wand indeed. It has three cores instead of one, dragon heartstring, phoenix tail feather, and rarest of all, a tail hair from a hippocampus." He explained. "The wood is cherry, which is good for everything." He added. "It's beautiful. I'll take it." I said, paying him and taking the wand. When I walked out of the shop I was stopped by a very angry looking Molly Weasley. "How dare you!" She hissed. "How dare you leave your family for those people you ungrateful little whore!" She yelled, slapping me across the face. I sobbed and scrambled back. "Leave her alone!" I heard Auntie Sissy yell. I felt someone grab my shoulders and took me away from Molly. I clung to Auntie Sissy and sobbed. She lead me into the pet shop, which was deserted and quiet. She wiped my face and hugged me to help calm me down. Eventually I stopped crying. "Are you alright Victoria?" She asked. I nodded. "I'm fine." I said quietly. She sighed and hugged me. "Why don't we get something to cheer you up?" She asked. I looked up at her. "What?" I asked. She gestured around her. "Pick whatever you want and I'll get it for you." She explained. I smiled. Closing my eyes I let my heart lead me towards my new pet. When I opened my eyes I looked down at a beautiful mountain lion cub.

"What's your name little one?" I asked. "Serafina." I heard the cub answer. "That's a beautiful name for a beautiful cub." I said back. Serafina began to purr. "This one Auntie." I said, picking the cub up. Auntie Sissy nodded and helped me get her food and treats. We paid and left. Thankfully the rest of the trip went without incident and we headed back to Malfoy Manor where I would stay until school term started.
