Chapter 4 - Diagon Alley
"I will go and get Professor McGonagall to take you to diagon alley to get your school supplies. "Professor Dumbledore said to Amy, no Kyle sorry. He waved his wand and a corpeal patronus - a Phoenix - burst out of his wand. He looked at it and nodded, it was away in a flash. Dumbledore faced Kyle and said "Professor McGonagall will be here soon. Now, is there any questions?" Kyle had loads of questions, but those could be answered at a later time. One question was bugging him so he decided to ask. "Will the teachers know? I mean about me being from the future and all." Dumbledore thought for a few seconds then answered "Yes. I think they should know. You can not tell anyone unless i say so."
Just as he finished speaking the office door opened and Professor McGonagall came in. She said "Hello albus. Is this the new student?" She turned to face Kyle. Professor McGonagall walked over to the fire place and beckoned Kyle forwards. "Are we getting there by floo powder?" Asked Kyle. He had never been to diagon alley or used the floo network. What if he ended up in knocturn alley? On the bright side he was really excited on actually going to diagon alley. "Yes, I presume that you have never travelled by floo powder?" McGonagall said to Kyle. True, Kyle had never used it, but he was sure he could do it okay. "I've never travelled by floo, but I will probably be able to do it okay." Professor McGonagall nodded okay and went first. She stepped into the fire place, grabbing a hand full of the powder. "Diagon Alley.". She was sucked away in a flash of green flames after dropping the powder.
"Right. My go." Kyle walked forward towards the fire place, taking some floo powder. He stepped inside and said "Diagon Alley." He dropped the ash like powder and soon engulfed in warm, green flames. Everything around him was spinning. He closed his eyes and was soon spat out the fire. Kyle opened his eyes to see he was in the leaky cauldron. Professor McGonagall was waiting patiently near the door that probably led to the brick wall where the entrance to diagon alley was. They walked through the door and McGonagall tapped the bricks and to Kyle's amazement, the wall was turning into an arch way. They walked on, heading to gringotts. Suddenly Kyle's smile dropped off his face. How would was he going to afford his school stuff? They kept walking and reached the doors to the bank. Kyle lagged a little behind, wondering on how he could buy anything.
McGonagall reached the goblin up top and put what looked like muggle money on the desk. "Please could we have this converted to wizarding money." The goblin reached for the money, then did something under the desk then came back up. He put some coins on the desk and said." 30 galleons worth there." McGonagall took the money and nodded to the goblin. "You didn't have to professor. I-" Kyle began.
"I can do what I want Mr. Johnson. Now, time to get your school things." Kyle, with a big smile on his face, happily walked out of gringotts...
- 1 HOUR LATER -
"Hogwarts, headmaster's office, ice mice." Kyle said in the fireplace of the leaky cauldron. Once again, he was using the floo again. He gracefully hopped out of the fireplace in to Dumbledore's office. Kyle had just finished shopping in diagon alley. He put his trunk on the floor and looked for professor McGonagall. She was stood near the door. Kyle was on about to pick his stuff up when professor McGonagall waved her wand and the stuff disappeared. "Your trunk is in the boys first year dormitory. You will be sharing it with 4 other boys. Now follow me to Gryffindor tower." She walked out of the office and Kyle followed.
The trip there was silent, until they got to the portrait of the fat lady. "Gillyweed, is the password for Gryffindor tower." As soon as McGonagall said 'gillyweed' the portrait opened.
