Diagon alley
Harry woke up to shouting again; it was the third time this week. Aunt Petunia was screaming that if she had all these powers she
might as well use them. Harry got out of bed to find Dudley cowering at the top of the stairs. He couldn't resist it, "Boo!!!"
"Ahh!!" Dudley screamed.
Vernon and Petunia ran to the bottom of the stairs. Petunia started laughing but Vernon was turning the colour of a beetroot "look
what he's doing, look what that wretch of a boy is doing"
"He's doing nothing Vernon. Dudley stop being such a baby, I would never have thought you were fifteen. Fifteen and you still cry
like a baby"
Dudley looked shocked. He ran off crying
"Now look what you've done."
"I've done nothing Vernon. I don't want a stupid baby, I want someone like, like…" She looked in deep thought, "Harry"
"What? I hope you don't intend on staying in my house today. Me and my mates are playing cards."
"This is as much my house as it is yours. Any way I'm going out with Harry, to London."
"And how are you going to get there?"
"Floo powder" answered Harry
"What are you talking about boy?"
"We're going by floo powder in half an hour, so I'm going to get breakfast"
Half an hour later at 10am Harry started to explain how to use floo powder. "Well you throw this stuff in and then it goes green. You
step into it and say where you are going. We are going to Diagon alley"
"Diagon alley"
"Keep your elbows tucked in and wait until you see me, Ok, I'll go first."
Harry walked over to the fire took a pinch of floo powder and threw it into the grate. He stepped into the grate "Diagon alley"
Harry found him self-spinning very fast and then fell. He got up and then suddenly the flames went green and aunt Petunia was on the
ground "You didn't waste any time I only just got up."
They then went to Gringotts where they changed Petunias money. They then went to get some robes. "Hogwarts dearie?"
Harry was then fitted out. "My aunt wants some robes"
"What colour?"
Harry then sat in the shop for half an hour waiting for Petunia to be fitted out.
"Very nice that will be 5 galleons"
"We'll get my books and stuff and then go to Ollivanders."
They walked out of the shop towards the apothecary's, "Harry"
Harry turned round and nearly fell as Hermione launched her self at him. "Hermione, get of me, you're strangling me. Nice to see
you to. Gosh it's only been three weeks"
"Well yeah. Any way have you seen Ron? No if you had seen him he would be with you. Look there he is. RON, RON"
"I heard ya the first time. Hello Harry, Hermione. Umm… isn't that, no it can't be"
"Who is who?"
"Hermione wait a sec. Ron, Hermione this is my aunt Petunia."
"What! Sorry but isn't she 'the biggest muggle ever'"
"Well I used to be but I have magic now"
"But you can't just get magic, it's absolutely impossible."
"Not if Dumbledore has something to do with it."
"Well look what we have here. The Mudblood, Potty and the Weasel."
"Malfoy, I'm so surprised, where are Crabbe and Goyle"
"Hello, how nice to meet you."
"Who is she?"
"She is my aunt Petunia, now if you don't mind I don't want to look at your face any more."
"Who is he?"
"Draco Malfoy. His parents are death eaters. They are very close to Voldemort"
"Harry, call him you know who"
"Oh sorry Ron"
"Harry"
"Hello Ginny"
"It's so hot isn't it?"
Harry stared at her she wasn't stuttering she was talking normally
"What?"
"Sorry, er nothing."
"Who's she?"
"My aunt who is now a witch"
"I won't even ask how that happened."
"Can we go get my wand now?"
"Yeah. Hermione, Ron, Ginny I'll meet you in the leaky cauldron in an hour."
At Ollivanders Petunia spend ages getting a wand. Eventually she got a 9 ½ -beech wood. "So why are you getting a wand at such
a late age?"
"Well I used to be a muggle but I have magical powers now so I should use them."
"How unusual. That'll be 7 galleons please."
They then made their way to the leaky cauldron. "Hello Harry"
"Hello Mr Weasley. This is, no wait you know my aunt"
"Yes I do, but what may I ask is she doing here?"
"She's a witch."
"A witch? But that's impossible"
"No it isn't dad. Dumbledore."
"Well have you seen the papers? No? It's a sad time for the ministry. Mundungus Fletcher has been killed. Here read this.
'Mundugus Fletcher, one of the ministries's leading aurors has been killed. His wife came home to find the dark mark above her
house. She went in and found her husband dead. Ministry officials say he was killed using Avada Kedavra, one of the unforgivable
curses, of whom the only one to survive is Harry Potter. Fudge refuses to comment on this but we believe the rather eccentric head
master of Hogwarts has taken this up. We believe Dumbledore him self has told Fudge to act but he refuses to budge. We hope
however that Dumbledore's actions are in vain.'
"Why is it such a short article?"
"Well it's obvious isn't it? The ministry doesn't want every one to know about their big blunder do they?" Replied Hermione
"Precisely"
"Harry!"
"Hi Fred, George, how's the joke shop?"
"Well we're inventing more things, but we're still trying to get a shop, mum's not to pleased."
"She's still working out where we got the money from. She thinks we stole it"
"Harry, I don't want to cut short your time with your friends or anything but it's 4pm and I need to get home and sort the dinner out. Mr
Weasley kindly pointed out that I should try and do a quick spell course"
"Sure lets go. Bye. Privet drive"
