Potter's Sister

diagon alley

The next day in the streets of London, Harry, Hagrid, and Hope are in the underground tube, Harry and Hope are going over the list for what they need for school, "First year students will require: three sets of work robes, one wand," Harry stops reading and looks at Hagrid. "Essential bit of equipement, Harry." Hagrid said. "One pair of dragon-hide gloves." Hope read then looks up at Hagrid, "Hagrid do they mean a real dragon?" He looks at Hope, "Well, they don't mean for a penguin, do they? Heh. Crikey, but not a dragon." Hagrid said jokingly. Harry looks back up at Hagrid, "But you like a dragon?" Harry asks.

" Fast and misunderstood beasts, Harry. Fast and misunderstood." He suddenly eyes a woman and then nods. The woman continues reading her parchment. 

Hagrid, Harry, amd Hope are walking down the streets, "All students must be equipped with.. one standard size two pewter cauldron ad may bring if they desire either an owl, a cat, or a toad. Could we find all this in London?" Hope asked after she read the list. 

"If you know where to go." Hagrid said as they walk towards a corner store and as they get closer, the sign above it has 'The Leaky Cauldron' magically appearing. They enter The Leaky Cauldron. There was music playing and several patrons that are speaking to each other. 

"Ah, hagrid! The usual I presume?" A man asks Hagrid as they walk in. Hagrid shakes his head, "No thanks, Tom. I'm on offical Hogwarts business today. Just helping young Harry and Hope here to buy school supplies." Hagrid says looking down at the twins.

Tom looks at the twins suprised, "Bless my soul. Its the Potter Twins." He said astonished. The pub immediately goes silent and everyone notices. A man comes up and shakes Harry and Hope's hands. "Welcome back Mr. and Ms. Potter, welcome back." A man says to them. Hope smiled generiously. A witch comes up and shakes their hands as well, "Doris Crockford, Mr and Ms Potter. I can't believe I'm meeting you at last." The witch says. "Pleasure." Hope says.

A man in robes witha tourban on his head appears, "Harry and Hop-p-e P-potter. C-can't tell you how pleased I am to meet you." The man greeted. "You too, sir." Hope said. "Hello, Professor. I didn't see you there. Harry, Hope, this is Professor Quirrell. He'll be your Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher at Hogwarts." Hagrid said. 

"Oh, Nice to meet you." Harry says putting his hand out offering a handshake with Quirrell. But he looks at Harry's hand and hesitantly refuses. "F-fearfully fascinating subject. N-not that you need it, e-eh, Potters? heheh." Quirrell said to the twins, they looked at eachother than back at the Professor, "Yes, well, must be going now. Lots to buy. Heh." Hagrid says to Quirrell. "Goodbye." The twins say to Quirrell as the three leave into the back room winery in front of a brick wall. 

"See, you're both famous." Hagrid tells them. Hope looks at Hagrid, "But why are we famous, Hagrid? All those people back there, how is it they know who we are?" Hope asks him, Hagrid looks at her, "I'm not sure I'm the right person to tell you that, Hope." Hagrid and the twins stop walking as they reach a brick wall, Hagrid taps the brick wall clockwise with his umbrella. The blocks then magically shift and open up to reveal a hidden, busy street. 

"Welcome Harry and Hope to Diagon Alley." Hagrid greets, Harry and Hope grin broadley as they step into the street and walk down it. An owl screeches, "Here's where you'll get your quills and ink, and over there all your bits and bobs for doing wizardry and witchcraft." Hagrid says pointing at the buildings.

Harry and Hope are amazed as they pass by shops and owls and bats. The twins look at a group of kids staring at a broom through the window, "It's a world class racing broom. Look at it, its the new Nimbus 2000! It's the fastest model yet." A blonde boy says staring at the broom.
