Ana sat in a trance for the next few minutes until her parents decided it was time to go to Diagon Alley to pick up a few things she didn't need at Cathearts. Like what she's always wanted...a kitten.

At Cathearts the headmaster was allergic to cats. Ana had a snowy white owl from a store on Sunsplite Road called Frambosters Owlery and Cattery. It killed her to walk past all the kittens into the owlery in the back. Well, she had to pick out an owl and she chose the most unique one. A female snowy white owl with a few brown specks on his chest. She named her Abby. She needed a new wand because hers was old and cracked because her mother didn't have the money to buy the wands at Lifton and Lovstins House of Wands and Broomsticks and bought it from a secondhand store. A wand was 4 galleons! She wanted a new Nimbus Two-Thousand and Two. It was the latest model of the original Nimbus Speed-Broom line. She had a big black cauldron. Not to big not to small. She didn't need a new one of those. She needed lots of new books. The list read,"

Hogwarts, A History by..." the name on that one was smudged a little. Ana needed a black cloak and wanted to pick up a couple Dopple-Crosses and see why the boys wanted them so much.

Ana's parents brought her into a back room and hit a brick. A brick arch formed. Ana had heard about this. They walked through and started down the street. She looked at all the great stuff and wanted it all but her parents said that if she wanted a lot of great stuff she couldn't get a cat. First stop was at Ollivanders to get a wand. Mr. Ollivander came out of the back.

"Hello, hello. What would you like? Of course, a wand!" said he.

"Yea," replied Ana. Her parents pushed her towards him. At no point in all of her 14 years had she been so afraid.

He looked through some of the wands and said," Well, it is nice to see you two, Sarah, Nathan. I remember Sarah, unicorn hair, 9 1/2,willow and Nathan, phoenix hair, 10 3/4 inches, oak. Yes, yes yes. Now lets see, Ana. Hmmmmm. Are you a unicorn hair, 9 1/2 inches, willow also? Give it a little wave. Wow! Look at the pinkish light around her. It has chosen her for good, now. What a coincidence! That wand has a hair from the same unicorn that gave a hair for your mothers wand. That'll be. One Galleon. That wazs very quick. Thank you for shopping please feel free to stop by again for a little chat. Goodbye," finished Ollivander in just a few breathes, pushing them out the door.

"Is he always that hyper, Mom?" asked Ana.

"If not, more. What'dya say we go over to get a broom in that store over there," said her mother, rushing Ana to the window of a store with a Nimbus in the window. Ana saw the five boys from the table. "If you'd like to go in and buy some things alone, go ahead. That store is so big you could probably buy your books there too!"

"Thanks, Mom!" squealed Ana. She walked into the store and pushed a button. A little cart thing came out.

"I need a Nimbus Two-Thousand and Two, a black cloak, size 2, andthe stuff in this list," said Ana slipping the two lists into a slit in the top of the cart. The boys watched her as she collected the books right in the front of the store. She had gotten the gardens,witches,charms and potions books. But the Dark Arts book and the Tranfiguration book were at the top. She struggled to get it, she evn climbed a few of the lower shelves but she couldn't get to it. She kept trying to get it but couldn't. She felt a tap on her shoulder. She spun around.

"Hello," she replied as she closed a book about charms. She had been reading up on how to get things to come to you.

"Hi. Uh do you need any help?" the boy asked.

"YES! Thank goodness your here. I need How to Turn a Toad into a Stool and A Thousand and Two Ways to Defeat a Wizard Of the Dark Arts."

"Kay," said the boy as he reached for it. He couldn't get it. He tried again. He still couldn't get it.

"Fred, you're not doing it right! You're too short. Let me get it," said the eldedst boy. He tried and tried but neither of them could get it.

"Percy, it's more like this!" said the other twin as he did what the other two did. Then all of a sudden the younghest two boys came over. The one with the jet-black hair just watched the four argue about how they were going to get the books. Then the one with the black hair made a smart move.

He pulled out his wand and said," Esbiscus Comsiscus!" The two books came down at the same time. One into Ana's hand and the other into Harry's. He handed it to her. The other four obviously hadn't noticed what Harry had done because they were all still climbing on the shelves. Then when Percy arrived at the top where the books were he realized Harry already had them.

"Harry's got them!" yelled Percy. All four of the boys jumped off the shelf at the same time, just as Hermione, Jenna, Alex and Ginny entered the store.

The next thing that happened put a small mark on Percy's record for life.

BAMM! The books on the whole shelf fell down.

"PERCY!" screamed Hermione, trying not to laugh. "You know this will go on your record and you won't be able to remove it anytime soon."

"I can't wait to tell mom about this," said Ginny.
