Any wizard kid, that is.
Avery was walking down the street, lugging a cauldron full of books while she was at it. Draco was chattering away beside her, ignorant to the fact that she wasn't listening.
Great, we just had to come with the Malfoy's... She though, glancing over to him.
"And then he said, 'Ok, I give! You're the best Quidditch player ever!" Draco said with a grin, making over exaggerated arm motions.
A sigh came from Avery. "Wow, great!" She said, rather unenthusiastically.
"Well, let's head over to get some robes," He suggested, running a head a bit. Avery took this opportunity to duck into a store.
Animal noises sounded all around her. Her gaze traveled around the store, resting on a light brown Great Horned Owl. She made her way over to it's cage.
"Ah...I see are interested in that owl..." A voice from behind her said.
Avery jumped, pivoting around. "Err...Yeah. I'm gonna be going into Hogwarts...I guess I should have an owl."
The man nodded solemnly, looking to the bird. "Are you interested in this Great Horned Owl here?" He asked, motioning to it.
She nodded, replying, "It look's interesting. How much is it?"
"Ten Galleons," he said, smiling slightly.
The girl winced. Ten galleons was a lot...but she wanted the owl. Plus, she would still have enough money to buy all of her supplies...
"Fine," she finally said.
The man grinned, taking the cage off of the shelf. He handed it to her when she gave him the money.
"You have a good eye for owls. We just got this one in last week..." He said.
The man made her nervous. Avery nodded, backing away. "Err...thanks!"
With that last comment, she fled, going out into the street. She had both hands full now, so she had better drop some of her stuff off with her parents.
Her parents were found easily enough. She found them outside of Quality Quidditch Supplies, talking with two people. A young boy with flaming red hair stood behind them, staring at the window for the store. He was most likely looking at the Nimbus2000. It had just been released, and was twice as good as the previous Numbus.
"Hey Mum, Dad," She said, strolling up to them.
"Is this your daughter, Mundungus?" Asked a short, plump, red-haired woman.
Avery's dad smiled, answering, "Yes it is, Molly. This is Avery. Avery, these are the Weasly's. They have three sons currently in Hogwarts, and another son, Ron, who's going into it this year."
The boy glanced over to her. "Hi," he said, managing a smile.
"Hi!" Avery replied in return, looking to the three. The other man was tall, thin, and balding.
Ron averted his gaze back to the window. "Hey mum, dad," he said, "I'm gonna go check out the Nimbus2000..."
"Don't wander off too far, Ron," Mrs. Weasly answered sternly. She didn't look like the kind of woman to cross.
"I won't, mum." He made his way over to the crowd.
Avery's Mom, Rebecca, looked down to the item's in her hands. Hey, you've gotten an owl. Are you done shopping?"
"Nope. I still have to get some stuff...will you hold these for me while I finish?"
"Sure thing dear." She took the owl, while Mundungus took the cauldron.
Avery smiled, her face showing gratitude. "I'll meet you back here in an hour or so. Thanks!"
She dashed away, off to shop some more.
