"Diagon Alley," Professor Longbottom said.

I couldn't take it in and all its glory because I was too busy clutching my stomach and trying not to throw up.

"Oh sorry, apparating will do that to you. Don't worry, it'll get easier."

I thought back to what happened as I left. He pulled out his wand, made a book levitate, and my parents just handed me over. They didn't question him once, but now that I think about, all muggleborns' parents must do that for them to get to Hogwarts.

I looked up and my jaw dropped to the floor. It was amazing. Professor Longbottom must have seen my look, because he chuckled.

"Like it?" he asked.

"It's huge!" I said spinning around, taking it all in.

"Well, we will have to explore tomorrow, first let's get you to your room."

We entered the Leaky Cauldron and were greeted by Tom, the landlord.

"Longbottom... and friend. What would you like?"

"Professor McGonagall ordered a room for a night?"

"Ah. Yes, for this young lady, I'm guessing?" He said smiling at me.

"Yep"

"Right this way then" He said and led us down a corridor and into a small room.

"Here you go." he said and left us in the room.

"Your going to leave me here?" I asked kind of upset. "Why don't you bring me back home for the night?"

"Because, your American. You have never spent the night anywhere but home. McGonagall set this up just so that you can get used to sleeping somewhere else. At Hogwarts you won't see your family for months. It's just one night." I sighed.

"Fine. See you tomorrow."

The next day Professor Longbottom came to get me from my room. We walked out and started walking down the street.

"First, your money."

"What? I don't have any money. I live in the muggle world."

"We give muggle borns some every year, to pay for school supplies." He said and handed me a brown bag. I looked and counted 10 gallleons (I think they were galleons) I wasn't sure how much that was compared to American money but I hoped it was enough.

"Got your letter?" he asked.

"Yep" I replied and off we went.

So far I got my textbooks, and some extras, cauldron, robes, and some other supplies. I wanted an owl, but Professor Longbottom said that it would cost to much. Now for a wand.

We entered Ollivanders and I immediately decided I didn't like the place. We tried long wands, short wands, detailed wands, plain wands, wands from all different kinds of plants and animals. Nothing worked. I pointed out a wand in the front. It was dark and had some vines around the handle.

"Not that one dear" Ollivander said, "It is for very experienced wizards."

"Let her try it." Professor Longbottom said from behind me.

It was beautiful, and it fit perfectly in my hand. I tried it out and it shot purple sparks which floated upwards and created a halo over my head.

"Wow. Well I guess we will be expecting great things from you."

I bought the wand and left still admiring it's craftsmanship.

"Time to take you back home." Professor Longbottom said. Then grabbed my hand and apparated before I could reply.
