The start of term at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry loomed nearer and Draco Malfoy still had not bought his supplies. This particular morning, Lucius Malfoy's voice boomed up the stairs telling Draco to get his "fat arse down here!" The next thing he knew he was walking, hardly awake, through the streets of Diagon Alley searching for a particular book shop. Suddenly, a new racing broom at Quality Quidditch Supplies caught his eye and all thoughts of books left him completely. As he closely examined the new Firebolt 2003, a lost looking girl caught his eye. For some reason, unbeknownst to him, he couldn't help but think that he should help her, yet somewhere in his mind he felt that for some reason he should stay away. He shrugged off the latter feeling for some reason he should help her. He wondered why any witch or wizard would need help but he decided to help her find her way anyway. "Hello there. Are you lost?" asked Draco, politely. "Yes. Would you please help me find my way back to the Leaky Cauldron?" the girl replied. "Of course. Are you new to Hogwarts this year?" "Yes, as a matter of fact, I just transferred here from The Salem Institute of Magic in America. I really am in my fourth year of training but my father went here when he was young and thought it best that we move here after my mother died last month." "Oh, I'm sorry." said Draco, quietly. "Well, here we are. I'll see you at Hogwarts. What's your name?" "I'm Emily. Emily Holbrook." "Well, I'm Draco Malfoy. It's a pleasure to make your acquaintance. Goodbye Emily." "Goodbye, Draco! I'll see you there!" Emily cried over her shoulder as she wandered back into muggle London.
