"He said the Leaky Cauldron didn't he? This place is a dump. I bet its full of rats & mould or some shit man- OW! What the hell was that for Chrys?"

"Ma- Tim you need to shut-up. Its rude to talk about a place you've never been before, and you've stayed in worse places than this, that school or fekkin hospital? Remember that?" I ask while walking ahead of him and straight to the bar. "Hi, my name is Chrysellia Pineshadow, I was wondering if you could open the entrance to Diagon for us?" I ask in a tone of polite curiosity, "I can't because I'm a muggle born and my brothers don't have magic." I explain to the questioning look the barkeep gives me.

"Sure I can do that for you, Actually, Harrys just coming down the stairs. Harry! Sorry to ask this of you, but could you let these three into Diagon?"

"Yeah, can do, I was on my way out there anyway. C'mon it's this way." A young man with black hair and vibrant Emerald eyes gestures to us to follow him to a back door.

I watch as he pulls out what I assume to be his wand and taps a few bricks.

"So you buying school equipment?"

"Yeah, sorry you had to do that, I only just found out I was a witch last week, I live in America and there was a slight mix up along the way. What school are you going to if I may ask?" I inquire with honest curiosity.

"I'm in my 4th year of Hogwarts. Why do you ask?" He says in a slightly surprised tone.

"Oh, well, I'll be seeing you at school then, I'm attending Hogwarts this year, I might be in some of your classes too."

"Cool. Well sorry to cut this short but I'm meeting some friends at Florean Fortescue's, see you at school."

"Yeah see you there." The second he's out of earshot I turn to Masky and Hoodie.

"That is useful information."

"How? All he told us was what school he goes to and his year."

"This is why I'm the one who handles interrogations and gathering information, Timmy boy. He was surprised by something, something we should probably know about him, in other words, we now know he's well known in some way. I'll be asking about a mister Harry something or rather while we're here then. Actually no, I'm going to get as many books on history as I can. I may as well get stuff on additional powers as well. See if these Shapeshifting abilities are connected to being a witch or my place as a proxy." I say while tapping my chin. "Anyway, let's get that owl, send the reply and get my equipment. I'll get three of each just in case Jeff and Jack have to participate to stay with me. It says in the letter that my "true" last name is Black. Let's go into this Gringotts and get some money shall we?" I begin walking knowing that the other two would follow.

I stop to ask a woman in bright red robes where the post shop and bank are, she points me to the end near the leaky cauldron for the post shop, and to a large marble building for Gringotts. "Thank you."

I pass what I assume is an ice-cream parlour and wince at the large crowd of teens sitting outside making an unnecessary amount of noise, and continue on my way with Masky and Hoodie sneering at them.

"Play nice you two, can't have them thinking we're rude now can we?" I ask as I grab them by the ears.

"Sorry Chrys."

I continue dragging them along until we get to Gringotts. I see the sign and have a giggle.

"I didn't know that goblins would sink as low as to actually help a group of humans, especially since they have done nothing but disrespect the race as a whole, I wonder if they're even grumpier now, being forced into service."
