Eris POV:
I walked around the forest, wondering what disguise I should wear to go shopping in Diagon Alley for supplies. Hmm… Too much of a bother so no disguise. I apparated just outside the Leaky Cauldron. What a filthy place! And probably full with Mudbloods and Half-breeds. I stepped in but not actually touching the floor. Using magic, I basically walked in the air – but only like 2 or 3 cm off the ground. Neat trick, huh! I also did that with my cutlery at the Potter. They didn't notice of course because they were too busy fawning over their son Daniel, the Boy-Who-Lived. They would pay first.
I passed a mirror near the entrance of Diagon Alley. I didn't look that bad considering I had lived three years in the wilderness with quite bad sanitary conditions. With a flick of my wrist, my hair was neat and clean, and so was my skin and clothes. I glided my hands over the brick wall and it melted away leaving Diagon Alley at its busiest. It wasn't so amazing after having been there a few time before the Potters disowned be and kicked me out.
I walked towards Gringotts, avoiding the huge crowd huddles around the Quidditch display – mindless fools if you ask me. The doors to the bank were open and I walked quickly to a counter. The goblin ignored me. I coughed. No change. Stupid goblin. I pointed my hand to him and choked him with my magic. That worked. He looked at me in terror, still gasping for air, and squeaked, "Vault number please, miss." I told him the number and trailed after him, into the cart. It twisted and turned for what seemed an eternity before it finally came to stop at a seemingly blank wall. I stepped up, took my dagger and slit my palm. Placing my hand on the wall, I muttered in Parseltongue, "I will have revenge." The wall dissolved, leaving me an open path to my vault. The goblin was staring at the huge piles of money, his jaw slack. Hestia had transferred a tiny bit of the Potter fortune to my vault. This was so fun! I gathered a bit of money in a pouch and clambered back into the cart with a gobsmacked goblin. I was making my way out when someone slammed into me. "What where you're going bitch!" the person cried. I looked up and saw the three people I hated the most in the world: Daniel, Lily ad James Potter. I told Daniel to use his piggy eyes to look in front of him when walking. That didn't help. Lily shrieked at the top of her voice that I had to say an apology to her angel boy. I just told her to shut her trap. A red faced James towered over me, a vein sticking out of his forehead. That brought back unwanted memories.
"Don't you ever try to ruin our little boy's birthday again." I was cowering on the floor, wishing it would suck me up and make me disappear.
Black fog surrounded my body and I told the Potters never to speak to me in the same manner again. And I shadow travelled back to the main alley.
James POV:
I walked up the steps to Gringotts with my family, ready to collect money to purchase Daniel's school stuff. He was running around having fun when a person smacked into him – wait, SOMEONE SMACKED INTO MY SON! The girl looked eerily familiar and an icy feeling crept up my spine. She had long, black hair, eyes the colour of the killing curse and a thin frame. I shook myself. Who cares about appearances, SHE BUMPED INTO MY SON, THE BOY-WHO-LIVED! I walked up to her and was about to give her a good piece of what I thought about her when she spoke. Her voice was calm but in a scary was. The girl told us not to speak to her like that and disappeared silently in a black haze. What the hell! She was gone! She can't have apparated because she was underage so how did she vanish!?
Eris POV:
Stupid Potters! Why did they have to ruin my day!? I bought some clothes and robes from Madam Malkin's and made my way to Eelop's Emprium. It didn't sound very promising with all the squawks, wailing and barking… As I stepped in, I saw a cage in dark corner at the back of the shop. I peeped through the bars and saw a snake! Plus it was a papuan taipan, which is one of the deadliest snakes in the world! A small voice hissed,"Stupid, filthy humans! I want to get out and eat!" It seemed to be coming from the snake so I told it I wanted to buy it. The snake told me her name was Akeyra. She told me she would be fine with being my familiar. I smiled and made my way to the shop owner. I asked how much the snake was. The man just wrinkled his nose and I could get her for free.
I skipped out merrily – just kidding, I just walked out normally – and headed to the shop with schoolbooks. It was filled with books in every nook and cranny. I sought out the man at the counter and gave him the list, politely asking him to find these books for me. He snarled at me and threw the list on the ground. I sighed. Such a pity he made me his enemy. Mentally, I added him to my list of enemies and who to kill. At least no, I could show off my skills. I waved my arm and all the first year books flew neatly into my arms. After placing a small pile of money on the counter, I sauntered out of the shop leaving twenty shoppers staring at me like gormless idiots. I saw a dark alley branching off the main street. Hmm… Must be Knockturn Alley and it looked so promising in its gloom.
I walked there and saw a sign saying wands. Should I get a wand or not? I stood there for several minutes debating over the wand before making up my mind. I pushed the door open and stepped inside. A tall man dressed in all black was standing in front of me and asked me if I came for a wand. I stayed silent. The man took that as a yes and showed me a bunch of different woods. He explained to me this was going to be the outside of the wand. I drifted my hand over them and came to a stop at a pure black wood. "Ebony," the man said. This process was repeated but with the cores. I got the cloak of a Dementor. The man looked a bit scared when presenting the wand to me and telling me I would be a powerful, dark magic user. Perfect! The moment the wand touched my had, black mist surrounded me. The man looked positively terrified but I wasn't bothered. This felt like just before shadow travelling . I handed over the money and walked out. I shadow travelled back to the forest with all my purchases shrunken and lightened in my pocket. Home sweet home!
