Sophie (A HP FanFiction)

Chapter 4. Wow where am i?

It was getting darker and darker and I was in the middle of London I walked near some shops and an old looking building, when I looked up I saw something moving and I stopped walking, the three broomsticks I read and I shrugged and walked in. It was a little pub and there were people sitting at a bar drinking weird looking drinks.

A man walked up to me and pushed me away and laughed.

“Are you lost little girl?” he asked smirking down at me. I shook my head and I walked to the bar. The bartender came up to me.

“What do you want love?” he asked. I looked at him.

“Can I have some tea please?” I asked the man. He nodded.

“That is 3 sickles please” I looked confused and I grabbed my wallet and looked in it. The man sighed.

“Young girl are you on the run, you aren’t a muggle because then you couldn’t get in but are you lost because you have a lot of money in your wallet but that is not the right money. The tea is on my account and you can get a room but I need to speak to you first alright.” I nodded.

“Thank you sir but where do you want to speak to me?” I asked him. He grabbed a key and walked away from his bar and followed him with my eyes, he gestured me to come upstairs and I followed him. We walked in the hallway and then he opened a door and led me in. I walked in and saw a comfy bed and a little bathroom.

“Sit down please.” The man said while he said down on a chair. He looked at me while I sat down on the bed.

“So first things first why are you on the run, where are you from and who are you?” I looked at him as the tears pricked in my eyes.

“I am on the run because my mum and dad got killed today and I couldn’t stay there, there were people in the house looking for something I don’t know what but I was hiding in the closet. I’m adopted when I was 5 and I lived just outside the centre of London in and my name is Sophie.” I wiped away the tears and the man ran a hand through his hair.

“You had a rough day but can you describe me what happened at your house when you ran away?” he asked me.

“I was outside and I saw dark clouds coming up so I walked home again and I was in my room when there was a lot of noise I was really scared so I hide myself in my closet and then they came into my room and searched for something but they left and then when I finally walked down it was a mess in the whole house and then I saw my parents in the kitchen dead then I grabbed my things and walked out of the house. There was something strange with the sky.” I said to the man and the man nodded.

“I know what that was but I can’t really tell you because I think you’re a bit too young for this kind of stuff. Tomorrow you give me some of the money and then I will give you some useful money back and you can go shopping in Diagon Alley.” I nodded and the man stood up.

“Get some sleep young lady.” He said when he walked out. I lied down on the bed and fell asleep right away.

The next morning.

I woke up from some noise downstairs and I sat up and looked around. I fell asleep right away. I pulled myself up and grabbed my bag and got some new clothes and changed into to them. I heard voices and walked to the door and listened.

Voice 1: I don’t know what you’re talking about I haven’t seen a girl in here, what do you want with her anyway?

Voice 2: None of your business sir but if you see a girl, she looks like a muggleborn but she is very important then let us know!

Voice 1: Yeah of course now get the hell out of my pub because you scare my customers.

I heard nothing anymore but the conversation confused me. I walked back to the bed and grabbed some stuff and walked into the bathroom to do my things. When I walked back I jumped in shock the man from last night was sitting on a chair again and looked at me.

“You scared me sir.” I said.

“Care to explain why a bunch of Death Eaters are searching for you? Why are you important to them?” I looked confused Death Eaters I have never heard of them before and was the conversation about me?

“Sir I don’t know I don’t know what Death Eaters are I swear I don’t know.” I said sitting on my bed. The man stood up and sat next to me.

“Sophie Death Eaters are followers of a great and evil wizard in the wizarding world but I can see in your eyes you don’t have any clue who they are and why they are looking for you do you?” I shook my head.

The man stood up and handed me the other money and I returned my money to him. He looked at me standing by the door.

“You can come back tonight but watch out because they are looking for you. If you come downstairs I’ll show you to Diagon Alley.” I nodded and grabbed my things and followed him out. He took me to a small room and he grabbed a stick and ticked on the brick wall and then it moved out of the way and then I saw a busy shopping street with weird looking shops I couldn’t believe my eyes. The man saw me staring and smiled.

“Here it is Diagon Alley look around and buy yourself some sweets but look out for the people in black.” He warned me and I nodded. The man disappeared quicker than I thought I looked around and smiled to myself. This is so amazing.
