Chapter 1: Vault 414

Sabrina flounced around the steps leading into the huge Wizarding bank. A large group of people gathered watching her pace back and forth. The paper advertised to meet here. Were all of these people here to tour the vaults? Or maybe it was just because Sabrina stood out among the weird robed wizards and the short, grumpy goblins that ran the bank.

Sabrina clasped her hands together smiling widely.

"Before we get started!" She yelled hushing the crowd. "Did everyone pay?"

Murmurs of Yes's and No's ran through the crowd, the people anxiously anticipating their promised tour. A couple people wormed up to the front, jumping up the marble steps and handed Sabrina forms of payment-golden coins, wads of green paper, more gold coins... all went into a bag on her side.

Sabrina smiled as soon as the people had gotten back to their places.

"Also I have a confession-!"

"Wait!" Another person surged forward, a guy who had just paid her. She looked at him incredulously as he snatched the bag and went through its contents examining the gold wizarding coins. Finally he sighed with relief pulling out one specific coin and replacing it with another.

He handed the bag of money back to Sabrina, who looked just as confused the rest the people.

"It's a DA coin." He said. "You know Dumbledore's Army?"

A series of "Ohhhs", and "what's that?" jabbed at them but Sabrina only frowned.

"Okay first, if you're not part of multiple Fandoms," She pointed towards the Leaky Cauldron, "Get out."

A bunch of people shifted through the crowd, but none left. Sabrina sighed mumbling something, but brightened immediately.

"Okay my confession," She did her best to look depressed but her smile just got bigger. "I know everyone here was waiting for their tour. You were all probably excited to find what was hidden from the books. Unfortunately I'm here to inform you," She took a dramatic pause, "This was actually just a scam to get your money."

The people screamed at her. She even had to dodged a '69 Chevy Impala, that had mysteriously been thrown at her...somehow. A few curses were shot her way but they mostly hit other people in the crowd, causing more unrest as people barfed up slugs or their heads grew twice the normal size. Most called for a refund.

"Did I mention there are no refunds?" Sabrina laughed nervously diving behind a marble column as a javelin embedded itself in the pole.

"Okay! Alright! Fine! I'll take you on the stupid tour!" She yelled. "Okay? Okay."

A bunch of people randomly burst into tears.

"Why are you crying?!" She yelled them, "I said I'll take you- you're part of the TFIOS fandom aren't you?"

Sabrina groaned. "Sorry! Come on, our tour awaits." She stalked up the rest of the steps and pushed through the doors opening them with a loud bang.

She was fully aware of the twenty busy goblins glaring at her as she strutted up the isle to the pedestal. Once there, she turned flashing her crowd-wowing smile. She wasn't surprised that their exotic group had gathered most of the awareness of bank security and customers. They were loudly predicting the interiors of the vaults and most were carrying assorted weapons.

"What are you doing?!"

A goblin trotted up to Sabrina and she eyed it skeptically.

"I'm about to lead a tour."
