A Twin Sister
Hello everyone! Sorry that it took so long to get another chapter. I've been busy and I had to get a new computer because my old one crashed. So, to make it up to you, I'm making this chapter long. Well, I think I've decided Hayden to go. But, I want to know who you guys want her to be with. I have some people in mind, but if you have any specifics, tell me. It can be some one you liked in the books, or something you made up. If you made it up, give me a description.
Diagon Ally
Hayden woke up that mourning keeping her eyes closed. All she wanted was for last night to have been a dream. But, then again, it would be kind of nice to be a witch and to have a family that she was really from and not just adopted.
She slowly opened her eyes to see that Angelina had a witch hat on her head. She was still asleep, but she was sitting up like she was when Hayden fell asleep. She sighed then got out of bed. She got dressed in jeans and a tee-shirt, put her hair in a ponytail, then went downstairs, all without waking Angelina.
When she walked into the kitchen, Mr. and Mrs. Jones, Trevor, and McGonagall were all sitting at the table talking. She stood in the doorway until Trevor saw her standing there. He beckoned her over to the table and obeyed.
"Glad to see that you're up and dressed Miss Potter. We'll be leaving for Diagon Ally in a moment," Professor McGonagall said looking at her.
"Diagon Ally?" Hayden asked. "What's that?" The question was meant for McGonagall, but it was Trevor who answered.
"Diagon Ally is a road that has shops along it. You'll get all of your school stuff there," he said. Hayden watched to see if he was going to laugh, but no one did. Their faces were serious. So last night wasn't a dream. Hayden thought.
"So, what do I need for school?" Hayden asked. To answer her question, McGonagall gave her a piece of paper that had a list of school supplies and the name of books she would need.
As she went down the list she said, "I need a pet owl? How am I supposed to get one of those?"
McGonagall Stood up. "When we get to Diagon Ally, I'll show you. Now, if you'll say your good-byes, we'll be off." Hayden gave her adopted parents a hug and then walk over to Trevor and gave him a hug, but held on longer.
When Hayden and McGonagall stepped out onto the lawn, Hayden looked down the road to see that the Dursley's pulling into their driveway. Harry wasn't among them.
Hey Harry. Why aren't you with the Dursley's?
Because I am with the giant.
Oh yeah, that makes perfect sense.
He took me shopping for some school supplies.
Your there right now?
Yes.....
The woman from last night is taking me there right now!
Well, hurry up and get here, I want to shop for school stuff with my Twin Sister.
I will.
McGonagall took hold of Hayden's hand and the world swirled around her. When the whoosh feeling was over and the world wasn't swirling again, Hayden found herself looking at a bunch of people dressed in long robes were walking past each other and in and out of the different shops.
McGonagall walked past the shops to this bigbuilding.(A/N I don't remember what it looks like in the book. Sorry.) When they walked into the building, Hayden saw little people with really wrinkly faces and pointy ears behind the desk. Many people like the ones outside were either talking to the creatures behind the desk or following them into tunnels. McGonagall started to walk up to the creatures behind the desk.
"Professor? What are those things behind the desk?" Hayden asked.
"They're goblins. I wouldn't talk if I were you. Let me talk to them," McGonagall said. Hayden stood by her looking up at the goblin that was sitting there.
"Miss Potter here wishes to extract money from her vault," McGonagall said. The goblin looked at Hayden and then back at McGonagall.
"Miss Potter would have to wait. There is someone already in the vault at the moment. Mr. Potter. When he leaves you can enter the vault," The goblin said. McGonagall sighed.
"Alright. Well----" Before she could finish Harry and a giant walked past them. Hayden ran up and tapped Harry on the shoulder. He spun around and saw her standing there.
"Hayden!" He gave her a hug and Hayden hugged him back. "Have you gone down to the vault yet?"
"No. We were waiting for you guys to finish up to go in there. What's it like in there?" Hayden asked her brother.
"I'm not allowed to say," He said. But I guess this isn't saying. I'm thinking. It's amazing. There is so much gold in there!
"Well, I guess I will find out when I go in. I hope I'll see you later," Hayden said with a grin that said she was up to something.
"Come on Hayden, let's get your money so we can finish your shopping today. Good-bye Harry, Good-bye Hagrid." And with that McGonagall and Hayden walk with the goblin to the tunnels which lead to a cart. After the cart took off, Hayden could understand why the giant, who's name was apparently Hagrid, was looking a little green. The carts were fast and they were taking sharp turns. They went farther and farther under ground until they came to a stop. The goblin got out of the cart and McGonagall and Hayden followed him. McGonagall gave him a key and he opened the door to the vault.
When he opened the vault, Hayden saw mounds of gold, columns of silver, and heaps of bronze coins.
"It's all yours and your brothers," McGonagall said. All theirs. Al this time there had been a small fortune belonging to her and Harry, buried deep under London.
McGonagall helped Hayden put some coins into a bag.
"So, the gold ones are called Galleons," McGonagall told Hayden. "The silver ones are Sickles, seventeen Sickles to a Galleon. The bronze ones are called Knuts. Twenty-nine Knuts to a Sickle. Alright then, we can now go and get you things for school." \
Hayden walked with McGonagall through Diagon Ally to go get her robes. As they walked into Madam Malkin's Robes for All Occasions. They saw Harry talking to a boy with a pale, pointed face.
"I'll be back in a moment. I'll go and get some of your books while you get fitted, alright?" McGonagall said. Hayden nodded and then McGonagall left. Hayden walked over to Harry and the boy.
"Have you got your own broom?" the boy said.
"No he doesn't and neither do I," Hayden said before harry got the chance.
"Well who are you?" the boy said. He was reminding her of Dudley by every minute.
"HIS sister," Hayden said jolting her head in Harry's direction. "His twin to be exact."
"Well anyway, Do either of you play Quidditch at all?" the boy said changing the subject.
"No," Harry said. Hayden, what's Quidditch?
I haven't a clue.
"I do-----Father says it's a crime if I'm not picked to play for my house, and I must say, I agree. Know what House you guys will be in yet?"
"No," Harry and Hayden say in unison. Both feeling dumb for not knowing.
"Well, no one really knows until they get there, do they, but I know I'll be in Slytherin, all our family have been----imagine being in Hufflepuff, I think I'd leave, wouldn't you?"
Hayden just shrugged feeling more of an idiot for not knowing what to say.
"I say look at that man!" said the boy suddenly, nodding toward the front window. Hagrid was standing there, grinning at Harry and Hayden, pointing at four huge ice cream cones. McGonagall standing not far off.
"That's Hagrid," Harry explained, pleased to know something the boy didn't. "He works at Hogwarts."
"Oh," the boy said, "I've heard of him. He's a sort of servant, isn't he?"
"No," Hayden said.
"He's Gamekeeper," Harry finished for his sister. This boy was reminding them of Dudley every second.
"Yes, exactly. I heard he's a sort of savage---lives in a hut on the school grounds and every now and then he gets drunk, tries to do magic, and ends up setting fire to his bed."
"I think he's brilliant," Harry said coldly, making Hayden laugh.
"Do you?" said the boy, with a slight sneer. "Why is he with you? Where are your parents?"
"They're dead," Hayden said with a sneer.
"Oh, sorry,"said the boy, not the sorry at all. "But they were our kind, weren't they?"
"They were a witch and wizard, if that what you mean," Hayden replied.
"I really don't think they should let the other sort in, do you? They're just not the same, they've never even heard of Hogwarts until they get their letter, imagine. I think they should be keep it in the old wizarding families. What's your guy's surname, anyway?"
But before the twins could answer, Madam Malkins said, "That's you done, my dear," and Harry and Hayden hopped down from the foot stools they were standing on.
Hayden and McGonagall left Harry and Hagrid and told them they would meet up later. Hayden still needed a few things from her list. Harry and Hagrid walked off to get a wand while Hayden and McGonagall went to get her books, animal, and her wand last.
Hayden walked into the book store and grabbed all the books that she required, and then some. Hayden loved looking at all of the different kind of books that the store had. After that they went into the pet store. Hayden went up to most of the animals, fascinated by all of them, before she found the one she liked most.
Haha. Cliffhanger. Well, sort of. Anyway, I hope you like it! The next one will come a lot sooner than this one did. It might be long too. I'm not promising anything. So, WTYL!
