Draco and Diagon Alley

A few hours later, the news of Arthur and Percy's injuries had reached a sobbing Mrs Weasley. Now they where all visiting Arthur and Percy in hospital, Arthur had had one of his arms blasted of and Percy lay unconscious in a magic coma.

"When will he be awake?" Ron asked a nurse as she took Percy's temperature. The nurse ignored Ron and went about checking Percy's over.

"Excuse me, he asked you a question." Hermoinne stated, with a note of annoyance in her voice. The nurse turned around, a startled look on her face.

"Sorry." The nurse said." But, he won't wake up until the caster is dead." At this remark everyone in the room gave a gasp, even the one armed Arthur.

The rest of the days went by very quickly, All of Harry's friends stayed at Hogwarts with him. Harry felt guilty about him being the main reason in which Mrs Weasley was on her own after the incident. But Ron kept telling him that Billy and Charlie were constantly checking up on them.

Then the day came when they had to go to Diagon alley to get their stuff for the fifth year. Dumbledor insisted that the took Hagrid for protection, they weren't to annoyed about this, seeing as they hadn't seen him in a long time. Dumbledor had given them some floopowder to get there; they had to use the fire in the great hall because it was the only one Hagrid would fit through.

First, when they got there they went to Gringotts. When they got there they where greeted by a very stern looking goblin, he had to call for another goblin because they wouldn't all fit in one cart. Ron, Ginny, Fred and George went in one (because they went to the same vault) and Harry and Hermoinne went in the other. Hagrid had refused to go on, because last time he went he'd nearly thrown up. The stern looking goblin led the Weasleys family one way and a younger and chattier one led Harry and Hermoinne another way.

"Have you heard the rumours young sir and lady." The goblin said excitedly as they climbed in the cart." They say that Lord Voldermort found out Professor Snape was a spy from Hogwarts." Harry or Hermoinne said nothing after this, they were to startled, not that either of them liked Snape.

After they had filled their bags with money and met up with the others. As they walked out of Gringotts, Harry told the rest of his friends about what the goblin said about Snape. They got new parchment and quills, then looked at their list of books that they needed:

The ultimate spell book (complete grade)

Deadly and Dangerous Creatures

Rare and Powerful plants

Advance Potions

Fighting and defending against the Dark arts

Divination the future unveiled

Quidditch for champions and seekers (This was only for Harry)

As they looked at the list and saw the book for Deadly and Dangerous Creatures and glance up at Hagrid, Hagrid looked away and avoided their gaze.

"Harry, why do you have a quidditch book on you list." Fred and George asked together.

"It's a new lesson I've taken up, it's for the Seekers on each quidditch team." Harry said to them with a smile on his face, Hagid left and said that he'd be back in a minute. They got their books and Harry was about to head to get some new cloaks when they walked into Malfoy, Crabbe and Goyle. They were looking meaner and more annoyed than ever.

"Look who it is." Fred grinned at Malfoy.

"Oh shut up, At least my dad's got both of his arms." Malfoy smirked back at Fred.

"At least our dad isn't being held prisoner for being a evil old…" Ron was cut of as a blast came from Malfoy's wand and blasted Ron back and making his books fall out of his bag. Harry drew his wand and half transformed Malfoy into a ferret, Harry knew this would anger Malfoy more because he'd been turned into a ferret in the fourth year. Fred and George cast body-locking spells on Crabbe and Goyle, now with Malfoy unable to hold his wand and his cronies frozen they helped pick up Ron's book.

Hagrid rushed over to them." What happened?" he gasped, they told him the whole story about Malfoy attacking them and them only defending themselves. Hagrid returned the defeated trio back to normal and told them to get lost, Harry then finally got his new cloak and they headed back to Hogwarts. As Harry arrived back in the great hall he thought to himself." Just one more day until school starts".
