HAGRID, LEO AND HARRY STROLLED DOWN A MARKET STREET, HARRY READING OFF THE SCHOOL SUPPLIES LIST. "All students must be equipped with, one standard size- two pewter cauldron, and they bring, if they desire, either an owl, a cat, or a toad." Leo perked up at the animal choice. Harry looked up to Hagrid as Leo read the list from Harry's hands. "Can we find all this in London?" He asked, not believing the giant. "If you know where to go." He smirked mischievously, crouching down to Harry's height. He lead the two boys to an old black workshop, where no one would go. In there, Leo saw a bunch of men and women dressed in robes sat around a long table, drinking beer, he guessed.There was also a few people stood by the bar, chatting with one another. Leo looked around in excitement before Harry pulled him towards Hagrid, who's at the bar. "Ah! Hagrid, Usual I presume?" The bartender asked the half-giant, cleaning a cup. "No thanks Tom, I'm on official Hogwarts business. Just helping Potter and Black Jr buy school supplies." He patted the two on each shoulder. Everyone in the bar fell silent as they all looked at the boys. "Bless my soul, it's Harry Potter and Leonardo Black!" He exclaimed as if they were the most important people ever to grace the earth. Hagrid guided the two to the back door as multiple men and women shake the boy's hands. "We all thought you were gone, Mr Black!" A woman exclaimed as she shook his hand quickly.
Leo slowly nodded, not understanding her as Hagrid and Harry were talking to a man in a large purple turban. Leo speed walked to the conversation as the turban guy looked down at him with a surprised face. "Leonardo Black! Pleasure to meet you too!" He stuttered immensely, Leo nodding in greeting." Yes, this is Professor Quirrell, your Defence against the Dark Arts teacher." Hagrid informed the two. Leo's eyes widened as he smiled brightly at the man, him smiling nervously back. "Not that neither of you need it, eh?" Quirrell asked, smiling at the two. Leo's smile faltered in awkwardness. "Yes, well, must be going now. Lots to buy." Hagrid told the whole place, chuckling. Harry and Leo walk away, the latter looking behind him to see Quirrell staring at him, as if he was observing him.

"SEE THAT, YOU TWO ARE FAMOUS!" HAGRID TOLD THE YEO AS THEY ALL WALKED OUT OF THE BAR TOWARDS A BRICK WALL. Leo travelled over to the wall as Harry questions Hagrid. "But why, why are we famous, Hagrid?" He asked, trailing after the man. Hagrid walked towards the wall, turning to the duo. "I'm not sure I'm the right person to tell you two." He told them as he tapped bricks on the wall with his umbrella.
Leo backed away, thinking that Hagrid was going to blow up the wall. He held onto Harry just as the bricks safely move away from each other creating a door towards another street, this on more lively than the others. Leo let go of Harry and moved forward as Hagrid introduced the new street. "Welcome, to Diagon Alley."

LEO STUCK WITH HARRY WHO WAS WALKING CALMLY BETWEEN THE CROWDS OF PEOPLE. The boy looked at shop windows, not seeming to listen to Hagrid's speech. He saw a black owl with bright yellow eyes in the back corner of a shop. His mood dampened when he sees the cage was dusty, like no one had visited the owl for a long time. He turned back to the two as Harry nudged him, "We're going there." The boy pointed to the end building. Leo nodded and followed Hagrid into a big corridor where people are standing in front of large desks, chatting. Leo looked at the occupants and his eyes widened to see short people with goblin ears. He looked around as he heard Harry question Hagrid. "Hagrid, What are these things?" He looked around nervously as Hagrid answered. "Goblins, Harry. Clever, but not the most friendly. Stay close!" He warned the two as Leo instantly goes to his side.
