Willow (HP Fanfic)

Chapter 2: Diagon Alley

 Willow stood looking out the window of the small hotel room she rented, the night before, that over looked a place called Diagon Alley, that Greyback had mentioned to her before she left the house. She noticed all the children scampering around the street below, with their parents not far behind.

"This is a new start for me, this could be a blank slat. How many people here could possibly know my situation and who my parents are?" Willow whispered to herself, as a light knock came to her door. She mentally prepared herself in case Greyback went behind her back and told her mother what her plans where.

"Can I help-" Willow began but cut herself off as she noticed the huge man in front of her. "Wow you're a tall one aren't ya?"

The man lightly chuckles and says, "The name is Hagrid, Professor Dumbledore sent me to see that you get everything that yer will be needing for Hogwarts. I'm also here to take yer to the castle once we are finished."

"Where should I store my things so we can leave as soon as we are done?" Willow questioned.

Hagrid looked from Willow to the few bags that she brought. "Doesn't like to much, you can carry one on your back and carry the other on your arm so ye know where they are at all times if ye want."

"Sounds good to me," Willow nods grabbing her things and following Hagrid out to the street below. "Where do we go first?"

"Get ye a wand." Hagrid stated simply as Willow followed him to a quaint little shop called Ollivanders wand shop. "In ye go."

The door opened swiftly as two ginger head twins stepped out, they both stopped when they almost collided with Willow.

"Hello Hagrid." one of them smiled brightly as Willow snicked past them quietly and looked around the shop as once she was inside.

There must be millions of wands on these shelves, Willow thought to herself.

"Hello there." a older gentleman behind the counter said.

"Ollivander, am I right?" Willow asked, as the man nodded his head. "Great I am in need of a wand, think you can help me?"

"You have come to the right place. Come to the right place indeed." Ollivander said, as he went behind a wall where Willow could not see him and she could hear him gathering up some wands. He came back into view with several boxes in hand and put them on the counter. After doing so he opened one and handed it to Willow. "Just give it a flick."

"Like this?" Willow asked then flicking her wand at the boxes behind Ollivander. When the boxes behind him exploded into a million little pieces Willow knew that this wand was not for her.

"Try this one. It has a dragon heart string core and is 13 inches in length and is made of black walnut wood." Ollivander stated, urging Willow to give it a go. Willow grabbed the wand from Ollivander and immediately the air around her began to pick up and she felt heat radiating off of her. "I think you found our wand."

"How much do I owe you?" Willow questioned.

"7 galleons." Willow took out her change purse and counted out 7 galleons exactly and thanked Ollivander for his time and exiting the shop. Only to find that Hagrid was down the street talking to some boy with wild and unruly red hair. With him was a girl with wavy brown hair and another boy with black hair that was also unruly.

"Hagrid?!" Willow called, earning his attention. "Is it okay if I go get an owl or something now?"

Hagrid nodded and she went across the way a little bit and into the pet shop. The owls and cats where going wild with all the children inside the store. Willow looked around and noticed a black cat in the farthermost corner of the store all alone. She smiled to herself as she walked towards it.

She could hear it purr as she stroked its shiny black coat. "I think you are just purrfect." Willow giggled to herself and asked the lady at the counter how much for the cat.

"8 galleons." Willow gave the lady the money and the cat was put into a carrier for Willow and she exited the store soon after. Willow saw that Hagrid was still talking with three from before and she walked towards him.

"'ello Willow," Hagrid nodded, "This 'ere is Hermione Granger, Ron Weasley and Harry Potter you will be seeing them some in Hogwarts."

"Lovely to meet you all." Willow nodded, as she started to feel self-conscious, "Do I need robes Hagrid?"

"Yes, three sets unfortunately." the girl, Hermione answered, "I can come help you get the rest of your stuff if you want."

"I wouldn't want to put you out or anything." Willow stuttered.

"I would rather enjoy some girl time actually." Hermione urged.

"Okay." Willow nodded, as she let Hermione lead her down to the robe shop. Once they entered a lady was taking Willow's measurements and before long Willow had three sets of Hogwarts robes, one pair of gloves, one winter coat and one hat in her possession. "They don't ask for much do they?"

Hermione let out a light laugh as she lead Willow down to one last store. She got copies of all the required textbooks she would need as well as a cauldron, telescope and crystal phials.

"I think that about does it," Hermione stated, giving out a soft sigh as she lead Willow back to where Ron, Harry and Hagrid waited for them. "Though you might need a trunk for all that."

"No problem, got 'he spare." Hagrid said proudly as he sat one at Willow's feet.

"Thank you Hagrid, it should do fine." Willow nodded.

A/N: Right so I am not great at trying to portray how Hagrid would talk in books but I think as like me most of you guys can picture how he would talk in your heads....Comment below with your thoughts on this chapter:)
