As I walked toward the owl shop, I saw the broom store again. This time I saw the store name: Quality Quidditch Supplies. I wanted to go in, but I knew it was getting pretty late. I also passed by another store that was called Gambol and Japes. In the front, it said that they sell a wide variety of tricks and practical joke items. I didn't have time to go there either. I promised myself I'd go there next time. I finally got to Eeylop's Owl Emporium shop. I knew that I wanted an owl. Not a cat or a toad. An owl. I went inside and I was the only customer. I looked around and saw different kinds of owls. They were all so pretty and beautiful. A lot were painfully noisy, though. I went over to the back and saw a brownish orangy owl.

"Hello dear! I'm Eeylop. And you're looking at a tawny owl," I turned around and saw a man that was about five and a half feet tall. He had shoulder length brown hair with brown eyes. He had a slight tan and was wearing a brown hat with a brown leather jacket and pants. He also had brown shoes to match.

"I see. How much is she?" I asked.

"Hm..she's about.." He studied the owl for a second. "I'd say....twenty galleons??? I mean..it's okay if you don't buy her. She is quite expensive. I've had her for a long time and she's been trained by a professional. I'm sure your parents couldn't afford it." He smiled.

"I'll take her." I smiled and started petting her gently.

"Excuse me?" He said with astonishment.

I looked at him and said, "I said I'll take her." I smiled and looked back at the owl.

"Since I'm buying you, I'll call you Tawny."

"Impossible," he said shaking his head. "This is my top owl."

"It's possible, sir," I took out twenty-one galleons. "And I even have one extra to spare."

"Alright then. Maybe I misjudged you," he took the twenty and put Tawny in a big white cage. Along with him, he brought a cart.

"You might be needing this," he said as he looked over at my luggage chest.

"Yes, thank you," I took Tawny and set her on the floor. I picked up my luggage and set it on the cart and put Tawny on top. Since I was done buying all my supplies, I asked the man where I go to next. He didn't say anything and simply gave me a piece of paper. I started getting mad. It was as if I ha ddone something wrong. I glared at him and when he looked at me, he quickly snapped his eyes shut. It all happened again. For a split second everything turned black. It all turned normal when I heard a thump. Eeylop was on the floor with his eyes open. They had turned a bloodshot red. I helped him up and asked if he were okay. He said he was and asked me to leave right away. I kept saying sorry, but he didn't answer. He closed his shop right away as I got out. I pushed my cart and stood in front. Tawny flapped her wings. What was weong with me? I knew I wasn't feeling to well, but I tried ignoring it. I pushed my cart and went on to King's Cross Station.
