I stepped out of the bank and looked around for the giant and the boy, but didn't see anything. I bent down to get my list of supplies out from my bag.
"Time for the supplies," I said to myself. I read the first line.
1. Three sets of plain wardrobes.
I thought for a second a remembered seeing a store called "Madame Malkin's." And to my surprise, it was just right across the street. I walked over and went inside. The store was empty and I looked around. I saw all kinds of robes, different sizes and colors. I went up to the counter and sat my luggage down. I had already put the bag of coins in my bag, but took out at least 5 of each. I looked up to see a lady who was about 5 feet tall with long black hair. She had ivory skin with eyes that looked like a tiger, which was pretty neat.
"Excuse me?" I asked. She looked up and smiled.
"Well! Another costumer. Lovely, lovely. Come! Follow me!" She grabbed my hand and she walked upstairs in to the dressing room. She pointed at a foot stool. I stood on it and she lifted up my arms from side to side.
"Do you want me to take off my sweater?" I asked.
"No need to!" she said. She took out a measuring tape and measured from my left wrist all the way to my right. She let go and all of a sudden, the measuring tape was measuring me by itself! I watched it as it spread out and folded back in all kinds of directions. When it finally snapped, Madame Malkin came back with three sets plain, black wardrobes, including one pointed hat. She caught the measuring tape and handed me my robes.
"And these will be for you. Is that all?"
I stepped down from the stool and nodded. I grabbed my wardrobes, followed her downstairs, and put them in my luggage. I'm glad I left room for them too. I took it and stood next to the counter.
"That would be a grand total of...Five Galleons and three Sickles."
"Five what?"
"Five Galleons and three Sickles," she said once again. I took out my bag of coins and gave her four gold coins and three bronze coins. She made a weird face, but took two of the gold ones and one of the bronze ones. She smiled and I smiled back. She gave me back to silver coins, which was my change, but I told her to keep it. We exchanged our thanks you's and I went on to the next store. As I walked out, I saw a boy that had blonde hair, which was slicked back, with blue eyes. He had really pale skin and he didn't look too happy. I tried not to look at him, but I couldn't help it. We exchanged glances, but he kept walking. I suddenly stopped and looked back. Something weird had come over me and I started to feel really angry. I made my hands into fists and glared at him for a really long time. For a split second, everything turned black and then back to normal. I released my fists and calmed down. I looked about to see if anyone saw me, and no one seemed to notice. I looked back at the boy, who was to my surprise, on the floor. He was rubbing his forehead and complaining about his eyes. Madame Malkin came out and helped him. I saw his eyes and they were a bloodshot red. I got scared and hurredly walked across the street to the Cauldron Shop. I looked back to see the boy, but he was gone. I tried not to think about it. It had been the most weirdest feeling I had ever gotten. I shook my head and tried to shake it off.
After about and hour, all I had left on my supplies list were my wand and my pet. I had already bought my books, my cauldron, a few potion ingredients that were required in the books, inks, and quills. I had a parchment already. It was given to me by my aunt when I was 9. She had said that it was a given to her from father-in-law, who was also my grandfather Allen. I hadn't written in it yet. Well anyway, it was really hard trying to find them, especially in the book shop since it was so big and enormous. I walked over to 'Ollivander's' and decided to rest for a bit. I put my things down and sat on my lugage chest and reached into my pocket. I took out a bag filled with jelly beans that I had bought when I bought my books. I pulled out a multi-colored one. It tasted like cotton candy! I took out a yellow one and it was banana! I pulled out another one and this time it was green.....it was grass.
"UGH!" I spit it out and wiped my mouth. I turned over the bag and it said, 'Bertie Bott's Every Flavored Beans. EVERY FLAVOR.'
"No wonder...it's every flavored," I made a face and put the jelly bean bag back in my pocket. I stood up and went in the store, with all my luggage. I set them down on the side. It was dark and gloomy and the shelves behind the counter were dusted and cobwebs had formed. I rang the bell on the counter.... Silence. I rang it again and a man appeared from on a sliding ladder behind the shelf.
"I'm here! I'm here!" he said. He climbed down from the ladder and rubbed his hands on his pants. He had gray frizzy hair with bright blue, widened eyes.
"And what can I do for you young lady?" He leaned over the counter and smiled.
"Why...a wand of course."
"Ah yes!" He put his finger up and disappeared in the back. He came back with a small rectangular box. He opened it up and gave me the wand.
"It's a holly, 10", supple, single maple feather. Give it a wave."
I hesitated and took the wand. I flicked the wand and pointed it towards my luggage. It flew open and all my coins flew out. I squinted and hid behind the counter, covering myself. I was besides the counter, and I stuck my hand up to lay the wand on the counter.
"Nope! That won't do!" He said. I got up and cleaned myself. He came back with another box and gave me another wand.
"Willow, 10 1/4", swishy. Nice for charm work."
My hand started shaking as I grabbed it.
"Do I have to?" I complained.
"Of course dear! Go on!"
I nodded and I pointed at a dimly lit candlabra. I flicked my wrist and the candelabra lit up in flames, making the corner of the room fill up with fire.
"No!" I threw the wand on the floor and ran behind the counter.
"It's alright! I always go through this with every customer." He grabbed a torned blanket and put out the fire. I was scared and the ends of my hair were sitting up. I got up and asked once again if I had to have a wand. He rested his palms on my shoulders.
"Look my dear. This is nothing. You will be facing many more dangerous obstacles once you enter the school. You have to face your fears and never be scared." I nodded and he once again went behind the shelf. He finally came back after a five minutes. He took out the wand and gently gave it to me.
"This is a mahogony, 12', dragon heartstring. Now, don't be scared. Give it your best shot." He smiled and nodded.
I swallowed hard and grabbed the wand. For some odd reason, this one felt a lot more comfortable than the others. I pointed the wand at a light bulb that was cracked. It flicked my wrist and closed my eyes. I waited for a few seconds, but I didn't here a sound. I looked up and saw that the light blub had lit up.
"Oh!" I jumped up and down and looked at my wand. It had some kind of glow to it.
"See! Now that wasn't so bad was it?" He asked, taking the wand from my hand and putting it in a box.
"I guess not." I finally felt relieved that it was over. I looked at the floor and had completely forgotten about my open chest. I grabbed my bag and put all the coins in, but leaving out 6 gold coins and 5 sliver coins. I closed my chest and sat it upright.
"And that would be two Galleons and one Sickle miss."
I put the silver and gold coins on the table. He took two gold coins and on silver coin. So I'm guessing the gold are the galloens and the silver are the sickles. So that leaves the bronze.
"Thank you, sir."
"Thank you, miss. Have a good day now and go be a good witch!" He winked, but before I left I asked him what they call the bronze coins.
"Knuts."
"Right..thank you again!"
I left the store and headed on to the owl shop.
I stepped out of the bank and looked around for the giant and the boy, but didn't see anything. I bent down to get my list of supplies out from my bag.
