Lily Luna Potter

Diagon Alley

I was woken the next morning with a shake.

"WAKE UP LILY WE'RE GOING TO DIAGON ALLEY" James screamed in my ear, trying to get me up.

"Okay, okay, I'm awake. Calm down." I said yawning.

"Oh, sorry Lils."

" 's fine."

I quickly got up and dressed, and headed down for possibly the quickest breakfast if my life.

"Hurry, Lily, we want to get there before the rush starts." My dad told me as I finished the last of my breakfast.

"Okay, kids, we're gonna try to use Floo Powder, lets try James first, since he's done it before. Harry, you go with Albus and I'll go with Lily. James, you can do it on your own?" My mom announced.

"Of course I can, mum. It's not like I'm a baby anymore." James said.

I had never used Floo Powder before, but I have heard of it. Apparently you put the powder into your fireplace, step inside, and shout your destination. Seems simple enough.

"DIAGON ALLEY" James shouted as he stepped into the flames a disappeared.

James and my dad went next, and then it was my turn.

"Don't worry, Lily. It'll be fine." My mum reassured me.

We stepped into the flames and she shouted

"DIAGON ALLEY"

I felt as if I was turning in every direction as I tumbled through fireplace and fireplace, and I swore I was going to be sick.

We tumbled into a fireplace in a Diagon Alley shop, where we found the rest of my family.

"Well, how was it?" Albus asked me.

"It was okay." I said.

As we headed outside, I noticed how busy everything looked. I was excited out of my mind.

"Well, we beat the rush kids!" My dad exclaimed.

THE RUSH? The place was packed with people! If this is hardly any people, I'd hate to see Diagon Alley at its best!

"Okay, Lily, come with me and we'll look for some robes."

"Okay, mum."

We walked a little down the alley and stopped at a place called Madam Malkin's Robes For Every Occasion.

I was sized and got my own perfectly fitting robe, and the whole time I was giddy. It was all finally happening!!!

Next we went to Ollivander's, and I just about died right then and there.

It was a wand shop. Where people get they're wands. People like ME get their wands. I almost felt as if I could pee my pants of excitement.

An extremely old man walked over to us. He was hunched over and had white hair. I could tell he must be Ollivander.

"Well well, this must be your upcoming year at Hogwarts." Ollivander said.

"Yes, it is my first year. I'm Lily." I said, my hand outstretched.

"Well, Lily, I'll be helping you find your want today." He said shaking my hand, and leaded me over to a giant wall of wand boxes. They were all stacked on top of each other, and seemed as if you pulled one out they would all collapse. Though he pulled one out, and to my amazement, they didn't tumble on top of us.

"This may work. Swish it." He said, handing me the wand.

I swished the wand, but nothing happened.

"Hm, must not be strong enough. Here, try this one."

I swished the wand, yet noting happened again.

He handed me yet another wand.

"This should be perfect. Applewood with Unicorn hair, bit springy."

I wave the wand, and a pot sitting nearby sprouted to life with flowers. They were Lilys.

I felt as if everything had pieced itself together into this amazing wand that I now own. And as I exited Ollivander's wand shop, I felt as if I could do anything.
