Hello, its been a while, special thanks to @LoganHolland15 for giving me the idea for what pet Y/n should have

As we entered the magical creatures shop, the first thing I noticed wasn't the bird with multiple wings, not the baby squid that was a bit too big for its tank, not the tiny dragon the size of my hand, no, the first thing I noticed was a fat, ginger, grumpy looking but kinda cute cat, and it was evident that Hermione had noticed it too when she gave out a small squeal.

"Oh my God, Y/n, look at that cat." she said, sounding almost as excited as Ron was when he first saw his first Hogwarts feast.

"Yeah I see it, it's cute." I chuckled.

"It looks like a demon to me!" Ron remarked before walking up to the woman running the shop.

"You want the cat don't you?" I said to Hermione.

"Yep."

"Ron will be raging if you do buy it." I replied.

"True, but Ron doesn't get to decide what pet I buy." she said before turning to me, "what about you? You said you wanted something."

"I do, I want something... unique." I said.

"Like yourself." Hermione said, with a cute smile.

"That was cheesy, in a good way of course." I smiled before looking around the shop. There were ravens, baskets full of funny custard coloured fur balls humming and some sleek black rats, but none of them caught my interest. I walked around some more until I came across the tiny bird with multiple wings that I saw earlier, it had six wings to be exact, a large pair with two tiny pairs slightly beneath them, it had the whitest feathers I had ever seen with a collection of grey feathers on its chest and top of its wings.

"OUCH"

Ron buckled as something huge and orange came soaring from the top of the highest cage, landed on his head before launching itself at scabbers,

"NO, CROOKSHANKS, STOP!" cried the witch, but scabbers shot between from between her legs and ran off.

"Scabbers!" Ron shouted furiously, it took us nearly ten minutes to find him, when we did, Ron left in a huff as Harry followed. I returned to the majestic looking bird.

"Hermione look!" I said excited.

"What is it?" Hermione asked.

"I dunno, but I want it!"

"Ask the witch at the counter about it." Hermione said. I made my over to the witch.

"Hello, I was wondering if you could tell me about that bird over there?"

"Bird? that's not just any bird, that's a thunderbird." she replied.

"Thunderbird?"

"Very rare around these parts, some American dealer sold him to me while I was on a trip, he's very small for one of his kind, granted, he is still a baby, but compared to the other baby thunderbirds that the dealer had, very small." she explained in great detail. "If you do ever become an adventurer, he'll be very useful, thunderbirds are extremely sensitive to danger, and can create storms at will when they fly."
