Author's note:I'm sorry about the long break from my updates but I had no idea that writing different accents was so difficult!
I almost banged my head when I was thinking on how to write the accent of Hagrid, if there are any mistake in the grammar or spellings I'm sorry if someone knows the difference in the accents or tips on how they should be written, please review or PM me, it would be highly appreciated.
If you have suggestions please review now, because I'm still laying down foundation, I can still add them but once it's over it's already done, so if you want something added or explained please review so I can rectify it somehow.

Chapter 1: Shopping
Harry couldn't believe it!
He was a wizard!, Hagrid told him that he wasn't a freak and he said that he was going to take him to a school of magic!
He almost couldn't believe it!,although he still couldn't understand why he was so famous, maybe he could ask Hagrid later but for now they were going to shop in a place called Diagon Alley, Hagrid told him that it was the place where he could find all of the things he'll need for his new school.
"ya' okay, Harry?" -the half giant asked
"Hagrid, How can I pay for all of this?, I don't have any money" -Harry said, a bit of his despair flowing to his voice
"Well, yer didn't think that you're parent left yer with nothing do ya?" -Hagrid asked rhetorically then continued "Here we are, Gringotts, the wizarding bank!"- Hagrid exclaimed as he pointed to the imposing snow-white building"yeh'd be mad ter try an' rob it, its the safest place except for Hogwarts"
Just as when they were entering, Harry noticed the engraving at the side of the door
Enter, stranger, but take heed
Of what awaits the sin of greed
For those who take, but do not earn
Must pay most dearly in their turn
So if you seek beneath our floors
A treasure that was never yours
Thief, you have been warned, beware
Of finding more than treasure there.
After reading the threatening poem, he gulped back his fear and followed closely to Hagrid, but as they entered he couldn't help but notice the little creatures that were sitting high in their sits
"Hagrid, what exactly are these things?" -asked Harry quietly to the keeper of Hogwarts
"They're goblins, Harry. Clever as they come, goblins, but not the most friendly of beasts."- Hagrid explained as they walked towards the center of the bank
"Mornin'. We're here to get somethin' out of Ms. Potter's vault, an'-"
"Does Ms. Potter have a key?" The glasses wearing goblin interrupted,as he looked at Harry with a scrutinizing stare, a bit self conscious, Harry tried to smoothe his sleeves, though he noticed that the goblin's eyes were surprised when he accidentally showed him the red tatoo on his left hand, all this was missedby Hagrid who rummaged through his pockets, strewing various things onto the goblin's book of numbers until finally pulling out a small golden key, the goblin looked at it suspiciously but nodded
"I also have a letter from Professor Dumbledore. It's about the You-Know-What in vault 713." The goblin took the letter and looked at it, then nodded again
"I will have someone take you to you vault. Griphook!" Another goblin came over. "Escort them to their vaults." The goblin nodded and they walked off.
"What's in Vault 713?"- Harry asked curiously
"Can't tell yeh that. Hogwarts business."- Hagrid answered as they all were loaded into a cart, after a very enjoyable ride for Harry and a very uncomfortable ride for Hagrid, the goblin, Griphook escorted them to Harry's vault
"Key please"- the goblin said/asked as Hagrid handed him the key and the Griphook opened it
When Hagrid told him that his parents left him money, he was happy but never did he think that his parents left him a fortune!
Harry gasped as he stared at the mounds of gold coins
"All yours, Harry"- smiled Hagrid
All Harry's, It was incredible. The Dursley couldn't have known about his or they'd have had it from his faster than a blink. How often had they complained how much Harry cost them to keep?, and all the time there had been a fortune for him under London.
"Here's a moneybag, you can use it ter keep yer gold" -Hagid said as he offered him a small pouch then continued "The gold ones are called Galleons,Seventeen sickles to a galleon and twenty nine knuts to a sickle, it's easy enough"
Harry thanked Hagrid and then proceeded to fill his moneybag to a brim
After that, they left and traveled through the cart once more and headed towards the Vault 713
When the goblin opened the vault, he was expecting to see piles and mounds of gold but was disappointed when the large vault only contained a very small package that had a grubby ribbon to tie it up, Hagrid entered and quickly tucked the grubby packaged to one of his many pockets and then they rode the cart and was deposited where they started.
Hagrid also explained some things to him and he also gave him one of the letters that flooded their house in Privet Drive, There were many things that he learned from Hagrid, first that he was magical, the truth about his parents, why he was famous, why his parents were killed, where they studied, about the money he inherited from his parents and all sorts of useful things, (though the goblins that he met were unusually kind after they saw the red sigil on his hand) and trivia's about the magical world but unfortunately when Hagrid gave him his ticket to get on Hogwarts Express he did not tell him where the Platform 9 and 3/4, when he asked the guard, he just sneered at harry and told him to sod off, he nearly gave up hope on getting on but then a group of redheads came, and one who he assumed was the eldest as she was ordering them to hurry up was shouting about being late and not being able to get on the platform 9 and 3/4, having his hope renewed he watched a boy who he knew who was older than him and walked towards the wall between platform 9 and 10 and abruptly vanished.
Harry rubbed his eyes again, he was quite sure that it was a wall but then the redheaded boy disappeared and he was followed by two redheaded boys who looked like twins and they too vanished when they walked into the wall, finally over his amazement on the magical wall, he pulled his trolley with his trunk and his owl, Hedwig who was given to him by Hagrid a s birthday present, and walked nervously to the platform, the sight that greeted him stunned Harry he was amazed by the number of magical people that was present, he saw the train with the name "Hogwarts Express" emblazoned on the front in red colors, he studied his surroundings once more before deciding to board the train lest he be late.
Having found a compartment all to himself, he tried to get his trunk loaded but he was having trouble as he was too short, but fortunately one of the redheaded twins he saw earlier helped him
"Here, let us-
"help you" -the twins said
"Thank you, but how are you doing that?"- replied harry
"Doing-
"What mate?"-
"That" - Harry tried again, he of course knew that they were twins but he was fascinated that the two of them finished each others sentences
"Don't know what" -The twin in the left started
"You're talking about but"- The other twin continued
"We best be off" -they continued
"I heard Lee has something"
"To show us" - then they left leaving Harry alone
Harry's train ride was fairly quiet, he managed to hide his scar by using his hair, and the red sword-like tattoo was hidden in his robes so he didn't have a problem hiding, though a bushy haired girl did come and asked about the missing toad and later, the owner of the missing toad came and ask about his pet, but since Harry hadn't seen a toad he was left alone.
When they arrived, he immediately noticed Hagrid waving the first year students to come
"Firs' Year!, Firs' Year, over here!", Hagrid shouted as he waved
"Ye' all be seein' yer first glimpse of hogwarts in a moment" - the half-gaint explained as they all followed him towards the lake
"No more four in a boat!"- the huge man warned as all of them picked a boat to ride on
Harry was seated in an unoccupied boat and was joined by the bushy-haired girl earlier along with the boy who lost his toad, and a boy who had a curly hair
"I'm Justin, Justin Finch-Fletchley, Any idea where you'll get sorted?"- the curly-haired boy introduce himself
"I'm Hermione Granger and I'm hoping for Gryffindor as I read, I knew that Dumbledore was one, and I hope to be like him someday -the Bushy-haired girl continued
"I-I'm Neville L-longbottom, my aunt wants me in Gryffindor but I'm just amazed that I received a letter at all"-the boy who lost his toad stuttered nervously
"I'm Harry, Harry Potter, I think I'm happy wherever they'll sort me " - He introduced himself, he was a bit nervous, as he didn't want the attention that his name seemed to command, but it was a bit rude to refuse to identify yourself especially when they had all introduced theirself
"Are you really?" she asked in a delighted tone. "I read about you in Modern Magical History, The Rise and Fall of the Dark Arts, and Great Wizarding Events of the Twentieth Century."
"Er, yes though I haven't read anything in those books"- Harry replied, a bit overwhelmed knowing that there were books published about him
Before Hermione could reply, Hagrid interrupted (God bless his soul) them by saying that Hogwarts was about to be seen and all of them were stunned to silence at seeing the castle that was towering over them
After the boat ride, they were all led to a room by Hagrid who talked to stern looking woman who introduced herself as a Professor McGonagall and told them about the four houses which consist of Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, and Slytherin she also told them that they were soon going to be sorted to different houses that will be their family here at Hogwarts, then after that she disappeared to the corridor, leaving them to speculate about how they were going to be sorted and which house was the best.
The speculations and conversation ended abruptly when they heard a girl shriek and was introduced to the Hogwarts ghost namely the Fat Friar, whose previous house was Hufflepuff and Nearly Headless Nick whose house were the Gryffindor (Harry didn't really like to know why he was called Nearly Headless).
The conversation was once again was killed by the reappearance of Professor McGonagall who told them that they were to be sorted then led them to the great hall
Harry was a bundle of excitement and nervousness as the professor led them, he didn't know what to expect but he was sure about one thing, that he was going to try his best in learning
Authors note: Those who will ask why things were changed from what happened in canon even though the circumstances were the same, the change that happened was that Harry was a bit more used in hiding because he didn't wan to attract attention not just from his freakishness that the Dursleys pounded to him but also the more visible command spell in his hand
