Chapter 6: A Trip to Diagon Ally
A/N: I know I am writing about Steven a lot and this is a HARRY POTTER fic but in order for the fic to work this info is needed :)
The next morning Steven woke up very late he could hear
his mother talking with Dumbledore in the kitchen. Steven
couldn't make out what they were saying, but when he
walked into the kitchen they stopped talking at once.
Dumbledore said "Now Steven we have a huge day ahead
of us. We will be traveling to Diagon Ally by floo powder"
Steven asked "Whats floo powder?" Dumbledore smiled and said
"It is how underage wizards travel for the most part in the
wizarding world. Now we better get going we have a lot to do."
Steven and Dumbledore walked over to the fireplace. Dumbledore
tapped the fireplace with his wand and a roaring fire was
instantly burning within the grate. Dumbledore then took a
bag out of his pocket and said "Now Steven all you have to
do is walk over to the fireplace and drop some of this powder
onto the flames and say Diagon Ally. You go first and I will
follow." "Ok" Steven said as he took a pinch of floo powder
to the fireplace. He though the powder onto the flames and it
turned a bright green Steven walked up to the fire and said
"Diagon Ally" and with that he disappeared into the flames.
A few seconds later when Dumbledore came out from the grate he said
"Enjoy the ride Steven?". Then Dumbledore smiled and said "Which reminds me, we have to go to Gringotts to get you some gold."
They started walking towards a white marble building
with heavy looking bronze doors. Inside was incredible,
the first thing Steven asked was "What are they?"
Dumbledore said in a low voice so not to offend anyone
"They are goblins, They run Gringotts." They went up to
a teller and Dumbledore said "I need to take some gold
from Mr. Potter's safe." The goblin said "Ok, let me just
call someone to help you with that." A few moments later
Steven, Dumbledore, and a goblin named Slipenook were on
there way to the Potter Vault. When they arrived Dumbledore
explained to Steven how the currency works and put enough in
the bag to last him at least 3 terms. When Steven and Dumbledore
left Gringotts they started up Diagon Ally to get his school things.
First they stopped to get some ink and quills then they got him some
robes and a cauldron. They were at Ollivanders for more then an hour
before a wand picked him (13 inches willow with dragon heartstring)
When they finished their shopping dumbledore said "You know I was very
close to your parents and I want to get you something for all the birthdays
we missed together." Then they walked into the Magical Pet Shop and Dumbledore
bought Steven a pet cat he decided to call spooky because she was all black
and had yellow eyes. They checked into a room at The Leaky Cauldron.
The next day they would be heading off to Hogwarts where Steven would
have a lot to learn.
