Sitting in the room, waiting for Professor Plasky to arrive for her private apparating lesson, Ana noticed a few interesting things including many wands, a remembrall, an opened howler which looked like a big, loud one, a few ancient muggle toys and some other things that Ana couldn't identify.
She sat in her bellbottoms and t-shirt, very imformal for a private lesson (but she had permission because she was leaving soon as she could Floo Powder herself to London, in a little pub called the Leaky Cauldron, which, as Ana was told, was the place to be if you were a witch or wizard.
"Hello, Ana," he said as her burst through hidden door that blended into the wall.
"Hi," she retorted back.
"Well, where shall we start. I hear you have been taught how to transport yourself only as far as the next room. So we shall start by assuming the proper positioning," he explained by putting his arm into the air, swiftly like a bird. Ana copied him mockingly, as she had learned the proper Floo powder position many times. He explained how to let the fire know where you would like to go. After a few minutes, Ana could transport herself to the FAO Schwartz in NYC. He decided Ana had the proper technique and the proper waves to get anywhere as long as she practiced with a few places not so far away. She was ready. Plasky called the headmaster and got the go ahead to send her to the Leaky Cauldron. Her parents had apparated already hours before, waiting for her classes to end. Ana was informed that Hogwarts started the day after she arrived in London (two days after her own school) so she would go straight to school the day after her arrival. Meaning she would have to shop quickly. The tranportion was a successful.
Ana arrived in London, suprisedly in one piece. She looked around the small bar before spotting her parents.
Oh, hello, dear. We just want to finish these last two drinks. We ordered you a milkshake. Did you know they had no idea how to make one. Well I got back there and showed them some good cooking. What I did was-" started Sarah, Ana's mother.
"Thanks Mom!" interrupted Ana.
Obviously to everyone else Ana dressed oddly, but WO! they had never lived in her material world. Her parents sat her at a table with a couple of other girls her age while they finished their drinks with a half-giant named Reubus Hagrid. He was the gameskeeper at Hogwarts and knew he could be of service. He told them the good places to shop.
Ana sat at a table with 4 other girls named Alex, Jenna, two Ravenclaw third years and Ginny a Gryffindor second year, all pure-bloods and Hermione, a third year Gryffindormuggle family girl, who was the top witch of her class. They talked about alot of stuff, especially their teachers and how hard Snape was, who Ana hadn't met, but already didn't like. Then these five boys came to their table. One with jet-black hair, and four more whose hair was every bit as fiery red as Ginny's.
"Hey, Hermione?" asked Ron.
"Yeah?" she replied.
"Do you have any Sickles I can borrow?" asked the smallest red-haired boy.
"What o you want to buy Ron?" asked Hermione.
"A little Dopple-Cross for each of us," said Ron, waving his hand at his other 4 companions.
"I guess," she said melancholily. "I only have 7. Just enough for FIVE. And you show me those Dopple-Crosses when you come back." Ana was in a trance by the two twins who were tall and handsome.One of them caught her eye and winked at her. Ana hadn't noticed the Hermione had gone back to their conversation about their first day as first-years and how she was terrified the sorting hat would put her in Hufflepuff with that crazy Susan Hildradeer. Ana thought about the G and F on their sweaters and what they stood for.
"Uh, Her...Hermione...who were they?" asked Ana.
"Oh just Ron, Harry, Fred, George, and Percy. I have no idea why Percy was with them," started Hermione again while the conversation switched to the odd habits of boys. Fred and George, and Fred winked at me.Hmmm, my first day in London is turning into a great experience.
