Chapter 4 Diagon Ally
After Professor McGonagall dropped Harry off at the Leaky Cauldron he walked in and went to find Tom, the barman. When he did Harry asked him to open the gate to Diagon Ally for him. Delighted that Harry Potter was in his shop, yet confused that he was alone, Tom lead Harry to the back of the shop and opened the gate. After bidding him farewell, Harry walked into Diagon Ally.
Harry was amazed at the various shops and magic that cluttered the large street. While looking at everything he past, Harry made his way to the first place Professor McGonagall told Harry to go, Gringotts. He then carefully made his way up to one of the odd looking tellers and told them his name and that he wanted to open his vault. After handing the goblin his key, another goblin lead him to the carts. After taking a really dizzy trip, Harry finally got to his vault. The goblin then opened the door and in the vault laid a mountain of gold. Harry toke a bag from the goblin and filled up with tons of the coins. After the goblin explained the money to Harry and how to use it, they toke the dizzy trip back to the top floor.
Harry didn't know what shop to visit first. He finally decided on getting his robes. He has to look like a wizard before he can become one, right? So he walked into the store called Madam Malkins Robes for all Occasions. After begin thoroughly excited about Harry Potter being in her shop, she lead him to a fitting area. As he stood on a stool being fitted the blonde haired boy next to him started a conversation.
"Hello" the young blonde stated, "My name is Draco Malfoy."
"I'm Harry Potter"
"Oh" Draco implied," Nice to meet you."
"Nice to meet you as well"
"I heard you were raised by muggles" Draco stated, "That must have been horrible."
"They're not all bad" Harry replied,"But my aunt, uncle, and cousin are."
"Your done sir" the shop worker said to Draco.
Draco hopped off the stool. "I guess I'll see you at Hogwarts"
"Yeah" Harry replied, "At Hogwarts"
A minute or so later Harry had bought his school robes, a pair of dress robes, some casual wear robes(one of which he just put on), and all his other school supplies except a wand. He walked over to the store labeled Ollivander's makers of fine wands since 130 BC. As he walked in the door a soft chime sounded within the depths of the store. As Harry stepped up to the counter, an old looking man stepped forward and said to Harry, "I wondered when I'd be seeing you here Mr. Potter"
After mentioning his parents, he asked Harry to hold out his wand arm. Harry assumed that meant the arm he wrote with, so he put out his right arm. After making plenty measurements (done by a magic tape) Mr. Ollivander gave Harry a wand and told him to wave it. Before Harry could barely lift his arm Ollivander snatched it back up and gave Harry a new one. This went on for several hours until Ollivander proclaimed that this might be the one. He gave Harry the wand and told its details.
"Elder wood with a snow phoenix feather core 14 inches. As Harry took it out of Mr. Ollivander's hand he felt a strange warmth surge through him.
"Bravo, Bravo" Mr. Ollivander proclaimed and red sparks flew out of the end of Harry's wand.
Harry then exited the shop after paying for the wand and made his way down the street.
On his way back to the Leaky Cauldron, Harry noticed a shop full of pets. He carefully ventured inside. On his way down one of the isles, he heard hissing voices. He went down the next row and there were tons of snakes speaking to one another. He went up to one and asked why he could hear them talking.
"A speaker!" The snake proclaimed to the other snakes," Another speaker!"
Harry asked the snake what he meant.
The snake said "You can speak the snake language."
"Oh" Harry replied.
A beautiful 1 foot long green viper spoke up to him.
"Can I be your pet young speaker?"
"Of course." Harry replied
So Harry took the snake up to the counter, ignoring the stares that followed him, and paid for the snake.
He then walked out of the store and into the Leaky Cauldron. After having Tom help him, Harry flooed back to his home on Privet Drive.
