Hey, guys! Sorry, this is another short chapter, but I plan on posting another chapter tomorrow.
Chapter 4
The Rest of my Journey in Diagon Alley
August 30th
8:00 pm.
Dear Mom,
I'm packing for Hogwarts tomorrow!
I got my robes, right after I left Gringotts. I was fitted within five minutes and went outside in my new robes. Then, I went to go get a cauldron and potion supplies.
The store smelled like rotting meat and I knew that smell vividly. I grabbed 3 sizes of cauldrons. I know I only need one, but I want more for myself. I also grabbed all the potion supplies I could carry. After a half an hour in there, I went to get my textbooks. I quickly grabbed them and got my wand.
I waited at the dusky desk for someone to help me.
" Hi, how may I help you, my dear," he said.
" I need a wand," I said looking around.
" Well, alright let me grab one for you to try," he said going toward the long, narrow boxes.
He soon grabs one and tells me to try it. The wand does nothing when I flick it, so this is not my wand. He grabs another and wand for me to try. The sparks blast and I know this is the wand. The wand was Alder wand and White river. The wand combo was rare and amazing powerful.
The man smiled and said,
" Your mother's wand had the equal copy of that wand. A lovely lady, your mother," the man says dreamily.
I blush and paid for the wand. I soon go to get my owl.
I reach a loud, dark store with rattling cages. Owls and other birds squawking loudly and rats screeching. The frogs croak as I pass them to the owls. I go and stare at all the owls.
Dad always told me you can tell if an animals are meant be yours by the way they look at you. If they look back at you a certain way, they were yours.
I stared at all the owls, but I got a brown, gray owl. I went to the register and paid. I decided to name her Kai, it means different in Latin. I took Kai and checked into the Leaky Cauldron.
Love, your excited daughter,
Francesca Montgomery
