Hey here is the third chapter! Thanks for the reviews! I LOVE THEM!

Anyway on with the story:



Chapter 3 Diagon Alley

The next several weeks of the summer holiday went by fast. Harry, Ron, and Hermione didn't do much mostly stayed outside playing Quidditch (Harry, Ron, Fred, and George at least) or they sat inside playing games - Chess or Exploding Snap, or in the case of Hermione - studying or trying to get everyone else to study. The summer was far from boring for Harry though. You couldn't help but have fun at the Burrow.

Fred and George weren't often seen - except at meals - they spent most of their time in their room, inventing. Though they never passed up a game of Quidditch since they hadn't played at all last year. Another thing they would never pass up was an opportunity to tease Hermione about Viktor Krum.

Krum wasn't mentioned very much and when he was it was always by either Fred or George. Most everyone else avoided the subject. Whenever Fred and George did decide to bring up a certain Bulgarian, Ron would act in a very strange way, He would never look directly at Hermione, pretend not to be interested, and casually ask questions like - 'What did you do there?' and 'Are you going to see him again?' Hermione would change the subject and never answer, while the rest of the Weasley's, and especially Harry looked uncomfortable.



Soon it was less than four days until they would be going back to Hogwarts and they needed to go to Diagon Ally to but their new school things.

Ron and Harry were woken by Mrs. Weasley's voice calling down the hall.

"Come on, get up! We need to get your school stuff!"

Ron rolled over trying to get back to sleep, but his mother came right into his room to make sure he did get up. So he was forced to get ready.

A quarter of an hour later Ron and Harry went down the long crooked staircase and into the kitchen. Fred and George were already there eating their breakfast. Ron and Harry took seats, began eating, and a few minutes later Ginny and Hermione entered, and they too began to eat. When everyone was done, and all ready to go they all of the students used Floo Powder to get to Diagon Alley, while Mrs. Weasley apperated.

Mr. Weasley hadn't been seen, much even at meal time. He had allot of extra work to do at the Ministry of Magic, but it wasn't that bad, he had gotten a raise, and the first thing the Weasleys spent their money on was new school things for Fred, George, Ron and Ginny.

Once they all were there, with their letters that had arrived the previous week, they all decided to separate. Ginny was lead into Flourish and Blotts by Mrs. Weasley; Fred and George went to Gringotts to open an account with the money Harry had given them at the end of the previous year, though they didn't tell anyone this; and Harry and Ron dragged Hermione into Quality Quidditch Supplies. Ron and Harry looked at everything in 'awe.' Hermione just muttered under her breath 'Boys!.'



Not many people were out on the cobblestone street, with the rumors about Voldemorts return. The Ministry wouldn't admit to the rumors, but many people like Harry, Ron, and Hermione knew the truth. As they walked down the street whispers followed them. Everyone had heard about what had happened with Harry at the end of the last year. Not just that but over the past few years, not just Harry was famous, but Ron and Hermione had become famous too. Wizards all over the world knew of and feared Voldemort, and they also knew about Harry, Ron and Hermiones experiences at Hogwarts.



A few hours later everyone was done with their shopping, they met up at The Leaky Cauldron, where they made their way back to the Burrow.
