Thank you for your reviews I'm glad you like the story.
Harry woke very early the next mourning and dressed very quickly. He spent three minutes trying to make his hair lay flat and look strait but gave up and left for across the street. He approached the door and went to press the bell but instead of a ring the door opened. He hesitated on coming inside but Brigit came to the door.
"Harry darling come in you never have to knock or ring." Brigit said. "Lynnie is still fighting getting up. Do you need to get anything from your trunk? We will be going back to Diagon Alley once you two get your supply lists. Lynnie needs a new set of dress robes, and Hogwarts robes."
"Yes I may need a few things."
"Go on love, see if Lynnie has decided to join the living. Just like her father. JUSTIN! Time to get up. Oh Americans." She said the last sentence on her way out of the room. Harry went upstairs to his room. He collected his money bag, which had a few Gallons and knuts in it. Also his robes and wand. Once in the hall way he saw Lynnie's door open. He walked in to the room the bed was made, but he hadn't seen her leave. He approached the wardrobe wanting to get a good look at it. The lion-crest on the wardrobe resembled the Griffindor lion one his robes. He got closer when both doors swung open and Lynnie jump out. Harry fell on the floor but didn't scream ad most other people would.
"Still here." Lynnie said very calmly. She was dressed in her robes, they were not black like Harry's. They deep navy blue and carried the crest of a shooting star.
"Maybe you have to not be expecting it." Harry suggested.
"Like that's will be possible." She pulled Harry to his feet. "Our supply alley is on the school grounds."
"What is your house?" Harry asked pointing at her crest.
"Celestriallin. Do all houses were black, in Hogwarts?"
"Yea, I wonder what house you'll be in."
"Who knows I hope I'm a Griffindor that way I'll know someone."
"I just hope your not a Slytherin."
"Lets go."
They each took a door of the wardrobe and shut it. As they walked out they both heard something that sounded like a distant roar. Neither of them told the other out of embarrassment, but they both heard it. They went down stairs. Brigit gave Lynnie her wand back with the assignment not to tuouch the wardrobe with it. Justin was holding an old wallet. Which was the portkey to transfer their funds to a Gringotts' vault. Brigit had ordered a rental car to go to the Leaky Caldron. After visiting Gringotts, Mr. and Mrs. Price went back to the Leaky Caldron for a drink. They instructed Lynnie to buy new dress robes and Hogwarts robes. They instructed Harry to keep an eye on Lynnie. After going and getting Lynnie's robes, she and Harry walked around Diagon alley visiting all the shops. Every where they stopped the keeper would say things like "Good day Harry, who is your friend?" Harry delighted in introducing Lynnie as his new neighbor. His also liked seeing her turn pink with flattery. Every time they left it was "Have a nice day Mr. Potter, Miss Price I do hope you enjoy Hogwarts" and such. They had lunch at Florish and Botts, and had ice cream and bought candy for later when they did their homework.
"What's your cousin's name?" Lynnie asked
"Dudley." Harry answered
"Sounds like the name of an orange striped cat. Do you want to get some dung bombs and hide them in his room?"
But before Harry could answer a voice came from behind them.
"I'd advise against that Arry." The voice said
"Hagrid!" Harry yelled and hugged him around his huge waist. "I'm so glad to see you."
"Me too Harry I always miss you over the summer." Hagrid released Harry from the enormous Bear hug (as Lynnie called it.) "Harry, who is this lovely young witch."
"Hagrid, this is Mandalyn Lairrick Price, Lynnie. She is from America, and she move in right across the street on private drive." Harry said with pride.
"Well, well aven't you struck it lucky. Pleased to meet you little miss."
"Likewise Sir I look very forward too care of magical creatures." Lynnie said, now Hagrid was blushing.
"Why don't you two join me I have to make a delivery to Mr. Olivander?" Hagrid Asked.
"Well I'm up for it." Lynnie said "Is that the wand Shoppe?"
"Yea" Harry said "Lets go."
They started down the street. Lynnie got a little a head of harry and Hagrid. hagrid leaned down and whispered to Harry "I like the way she talks." Diagon alley wasn't nearly as crowded as its was right before school began. It was almost lonely. Once in Ollivander's Hagrid pulled a large jar and two boxes from his huge coat. Harry guessed that the jar was full of dragon heart strings, and the two boxes were unicorn hairs and phoenix feathers. Mr. Ollivander came in the room.
"Ah, thank you Hagrid." he said "Excellent. Why Harry ten inch holly Phoenix feather core, how have you been."
"Just fine Mr. Ollivander." He said
Harry handed him his wand. Mr.Ollivander looked it over carefully, he like checking his wands for cracks or leaks, but Harry valued his wand and it was in perfect condition. After giving it back to Harry his eyes were drawn to Lynnie.
"Good day young lady." he said
"Good day Sir." She replied
Harry introduced her. Mr. Ollivander was very intrigued and asked too see her wand. Lynnie pulled out her long thin box. She untied the twine and opened it.
It was very pale wood, sort of gray with crimson shrieks.
"Did you soak that in color potion too?" Harry asked.
"Don't believe color potions work on wand Harry." Hagrid said.
Mr. Ollivander studied a while before taking it out of its box and spent longer with it after he did. Lynnie grew very nervous.
"Very unusual." he said after long last. "Who made this?"
"I don't know Sir." Lynnie said quietly "It was made for me before I was born."
"Is that so? My my, I see that you keep it in its box."
"Yes I always have."
"Liquid core wands are extremely rare." He boxed the wand and tied it again.
"Thank you." she said as she took it.
Hagrid Harry and Lynnie left the wand Shoppe. Lynnie was feeling very awkward. Harry inquired about her wand.
"What's it made of, and what's in the core?" he asked
"I don't know. I never really asked."
"Why do you keep it in its box.?"
"I just always have."
Hagrid nudge Harry to stop Lynnie didn't seem to want to talk about her wand. Almost like she was embarrassed by it.
