-1They wandered around, looking right left, then right and left again. Horohoro started to whine.

"I'm hungry!" he moaned as they walked. "HUNGRY!"

"We'll see where the train goes, then," Ryu indicated a train as it ground to a stop a few feet away. The shaman party dodged around the queuing people and hopped aboard the train. Before the first of the other people could get into the train, they were thrown out again.

As the train started to go, Tao Ren had an idea.

"If we can't go in, we can go on." They agreed on this idea, and leapt on just in time. They lowered themselves onto they were lying down. Although uncomfortable, they had to wait until they reached wherever the train was going.

---

The train had arrived at a place called 'Diagon Alley' and some of the passengers had went and bought some stuff while others had wandered around doing nothing.

They themselves wandered around, not knowing what to do.

Horohoro sniffed. "Of such a big place it's unbelievable that there's no food. Not even a single grain!"

He was proven wrong the next moment because someone walked by with some chocolate at hand.

Horohoro's mouth watered.

"H-hey, dude, where'd you get th-that piece of chocolate?" The person (boy) looked at Horohoro strangely, as if thinking that Horohoro was mad.

"This?" The red-haired boy indicated the chocolate. Horohoro just nodded. "I got it from a store . . . . . . Right behind you."

They turned around and saw a shop which, earlier they had not seen. It sold a variety of food, of all Horohoro had not seen before (except for the chocolate).

"H-how much is th-the c-chocolate?" Horohoro questioned.

"One dollar," the shop-keeper informed.

Behind Horohoro's back, introductions were made.

"That's Horohoro, I'm Asakura Yoh, and my friends Tao Ren, Ryu and Lyserg."

"Well, Asakura Yoh, my name's Ron Weasley, nice to meet you." He bowed slightly, only to be rewarded by two identical twins pulling him backwards and a woman a mere three metres away hollering "Ronald Weasley! Get back here this instant! Who allowed you to wander off, buy a chocolate frog and not buy some for your caring family!"

Ron turned his back on the woman (obviously his mother) and muttered "As if you're caring. Caring my foot." Turning away, he added in a softer voice. "Scaring more like."

While he said that, his mother was screaming "I heard that!" continuously in the background.

Yoh looked closely at the twins.

"Hey, you're the one who yelled 'coming through' and pushed us into the pillar!"

The two twins came up to Yoh and one piped up. "There was only one person who pushed you. Which one?"

"Don't mind my brothers. They're Fred and George Weasley," Ron came up behind Yoh and patted his shoulder. "Lately, they have been asking all sorts of people all sorts of questions."

""Which one's Fred and which one's George?" Yoh ignored Ron in the exception of the George and thing.

"I'm Fred and he's George," the one who piped up said.

"Then Fred did it." The twins' faces were made of pure surprise.

"How did you know?"

Yoh smiled. "You were the one who asked 'which one.' George looked confused at first, and then pretended that he knew of it as well. And, there was only one of you at the train station."

Fred wagged a finger. "Man, you're a smart one."

Ron nudged Yoh. "Sorry, but I think we got to go to Hogwarts now. Man, I hope we're in the same classes!"

Fred smiled at Yoh. "So long!"
