Episode 04: Diagon Alley
"Now," Dumbledore began, "All six of you are entered into Wizarding School called Hogwarts. It is a school for witches and wizards. And you seem to fit into that category."
"How?" asked Max. "We where bred by evil sickos at The School! They never designed us to be involved in Magic."
"I don't know how that happened," Dumbledore frowned, handing each of the flock a letter. "But Hogwarts is a school where young magicians of ages eleven and over can enter. However, we can make a small exception with The Gasman and Angel here, seeing as they both have minds like an Eleven Year Old. They and Nudge will start in First Year, and we have to allow Max, Fang and Iggy to start in Third Year, not quite Fourth year."
"Why Third Year?" asked Iggy. "And if this school involves a lot of bookwork, then I'm screwed. If you haven't noticed, I'm blind."
"Well, we can sort that out," Dumbledore smiled. "I'm sure our healer, Madam Pomfrey will cure that."
"Seriously?" asked Iggy, a smile on his face. He knew that he hated being blind. "Why can't you do it right now?"
"I don't need too," chuckled Dumbledore. "Inside these letters will tell you whatever you need to go to Hogwarts. Also… The Doctor has some gold in Gringotts, our Wizarding bank. You'll need to go there first," and with that, Dumbledore swished his cloak, and vanished.
"How did he do that?" asked Nudge. "Just how did he do that?"
"Nudge, shut up," Iggy groaned, before turning to Max. "He said the healer's going to cure my blindness! I'll finally be able to see again!" he cheered.
"Let's see what's inside these letters," Max changed the topic.
"Hang on," Fang pointed at a poster on a wall. "That's a poster of a criminal. A Wizarding Criminal, no doubt."
"Sirius Black?" asked Angel.
Suddenly, a group of people walked down the stairs.
"Hey, Hermione. That was my foot," a boy with jet-black hair groaned.
"Sorry, Harry."
"C'mon Total," Angel picked up Total, as he had just seen a ginger cat. The Doctor walked over to the group that had just entered the bar. Remain Silent; She projected into Total's mind.

"Hey, Harry," Ron looked at him. "Who're they?""No idea. They look American, though," Harry replied. "Well, not the man."
"Crookshanks!" Hermione yelled, as the cat saw Scabbers, and chased after it.
"Honestly Hermione," Ron groaned. "Scabbers vanished for about a month."
"Hello," The man in the brown coat walked up to Mr Weasley, and shook his hand. "I'm The Doctor. Pleased to meet you. And you might be?"
"Arthur Weasley," Mr Weasley introduced himself. "Let's go along, kids."
The Doctor smiled, as one by one, they sat down at a table.
"C'mon, Max," The Doctor walked over to the children and the dog, and gestured them to follow him.

The Doctor led The Flock out into the back, and said to the Flock. "What do you think of them?"
"They looked alright," Fang replied. "Who was that boy with the scar?"
"That was Harry Potter," The Doctor smiled. "The boy who put an end to the First Wizarding War."
"Harry Potter?" asked Max. "How did he do it?"
"You'll find out," The Doctor smiled, and brought out his Sonic Screwdriver, and tapped on various different places on the wall.
"What's happening?" asked Iggy. "I wish Dumbledore had cured me there and then."
"OMG!" Nudge screamed, as the wall split into two halves. There were shops everywhere, magically appearing behind the wall. Wizarding shops.
People often greeted The Doctor as he led The Flock down the street.
"But we don't have any money!" Nudge groaned. "How are we going to get stuff?"
"Gringotts," The Doctor said cheerfully, pointing to the tall white building at the end of the Alley. "Wizarding bank. You guys can take some of my money. I've got no need for it."
"Sweet!" The Gasman punched the air.
"C'mon, then. What are we waiting for?" asked The Doctor, as they where now standing at the foot of the building. "One word of advice. Don't go stealing from Goblins."
"Goblins?" asked Total, but the flock had seen too many strange things this week to make it be unbelievable.
