Chapter 5: At Flourish and Blotts
While Harry looked on with nervous, scared curiosity, the Weasley's, one by one, disappeared in the green flames. When it was his turn, he grabbed a handful of Floo powder, and coughed out, "D-Dia-gon Ally!"
Then Harry disappeared too in the flames. "What did he say?" asked Mr. Weasley.
"It sounded like diagonally," answered his niece. "Well, I'm off."
Their niece stepped outside and disappeared. "Did she just do that disappear without a wand thing again?" Mrs. Weasley asked. Mr. Weasley nodded his head. "I hate it when she does that. It's just not fair!"
Arthur just nodded in agreement with his wife.

Willow was on the steps of Gringott's Bank, when she saw a large man walking down Knockturn Ally. She ran up to them. "Harry! Why the hell are you down Knockturn Ally?"
"Um, Willow, you heard me in the fireplace," Harry replied, slightly stunned by this shy redhead's out burst. "I said the wrong things, and ended up here."
"Oh," Willow said. "Well, anyway, sir, thank you for finding Harry."
"Thass perfetly fine, Willow," the large man said. "Rubeus Hagrid, Keeper of the Keys and Grounds at Hogwarts."
"Oh! Nice to meet you, Mr. Hagrid," Willow said, shaking his hand. "Willow Rosenberg, a first cousin to the Weasleys."
"Harry!" yelled a girl's voice from behind Willow. "Harry, over here!"
Willow turned and saw a bushy-haired brunette jumping up and down, calling over Harry. She stood on the white steps of Gringott's. The girl gave Willow a suspicious look when her eyes landed on Willow. Willow just smiled and stuck her hand out.
"Willow Rosenberg, a cousin of Ron's," Willow said, as her and Hermione shook hands. "I came over for the summer, and I'm going to Hogwarts this year!"
"Oh. Oh!" Hermione said. "Ron was so excited at the end of last year. He said his cousin was coming over for the summer."
"Yep, in the flesh!" Willow said happily. Out of the corner of her eye she saw a flash of red hair, which turned out to be the rest of the Weasleys. "Harry, there they are!"
Willow, Hermione, Harry and Hagrid (**I didn't realize till after I wrote it that the names are in backwards alphabetical order,**) strolled to where the Weasleys stood, looking around for any signs of their niece or son's friend. Mrs. Weasley spotted them first.
"Good lord! Arthur! Over there!" Mrs. Weasley exclaimed, pointing to the group of four that was strolling over to them. "Harry, where on earth did you turn out?"
"Knockturn Ally," Harry mumbled in reply. "If Hagrid hadn't have found me…"
He trailed off, partially because the Weasleys could answer that themselves, and partially because he didn't really know. "Well, let's try to make this day less gloomy, eh?" Fred said. Then, in an imitation of a girl, he said, "let's go shopping!"
Everyone laughed, and then headed to Flourish and Blotts. Once inside, they split up, Mrs. Weasley and Ginny standing in line for autographs by Gilderoy Lockhart, a famous wizard. Harry, Ron and Hermione went to another part of the bookstore, getting their books to put into the cauldron Mrs. Weasley carried. Percy was out the door in a matter of minutes. Willow followed Fred and George to the back of the store, where books on jokes were hidden. This spot was secluded and Willow sat down in a fluffy chair, watching as Fred and George debated over which book to buy. Willow rolled her eyes.
"You two," Willow called, and Fred and George's eyes snapped towards her. "I'll pay for both the books. Now, will you both stop bickering? It drives me mad!"
Fred and George sneered at her words, headed towards her with open palms, expecting money. Willow rolled her eyes and dove her hand into her pocket, fishing out ten galleons. "Take these. Consider it a birthday present from the last decade," Willow said as their eyes bulged when she handed them ten galleons. "Now, go buy something! I'm bored. I'll just look around, okay?"
Fred and George just nodded, this present rendering them speechless. They grinned and ruffled through the books. Willow sighed and went in search of Ron.
She found him, off to the side of the shop, talking to a pale-haired blonde boy. He looked rather angered by talking to this boy. Willow rolled her eyes as Ginny turned red from a comment made by the pale-haired boy. Then she made her move.
"Um, excuse me," Willow tapped the boy on his shoulder and sent a few magical sparks through her fingers.
"What do you want?" the boy asked snottily. He looked her up and down. And then he smirked. "You look like a Weasley."
"Wrong," Willow disagreed.
"But," the boy continued. "You can't be. Your clothes are to nice to fit even the best standards of a Weasley," he said with barely concealed contempt. Then he muttered under his breath, "Those pathetic, poor, Mudblood lovers."
"What did I just hear?" Willow asked with fury in her voice. "You just said 'Mudblood lovers.' Oh my cheese. You are such a…there are a lot of words I could say right now, but I'm gonna say it the British way. You're a bloody git!"
"That's enough, Willow," Mr. Weasley said, making his way over to them. "Ron! We're going outside! It's too crowded in here!"
"Well, well, well—Arthur Weasley," a voice drawled from behind them. Willow turned around again and saw a tall man with a pointed face, clod, gray eyes, and long bleach-blonde hair. It had to be the boy's dad.
"Lucius," Mr. Weasley nodded coldly.
"You've been busy at the Ministry, I hear," Mr. Malfoy said, "With all those raids, I'm guessing that they're paying you overtime?"
He reached into the cauldron and extracted a trodden copy of "A Beginner's Guide to Transfiguration." Then, Mr. Malfoy snorted. "I guess not."
Mr. Malfoy then slipped the book back into the cauldron and left, Draco, smirking back at them, in tow.
"What a bastard," Willow muttered thus sending Ron, Fred, and George into hysterics. She glared at them, who in turn stopped their laughing. "Well, he is! I mean, I don't know him, but that Lucius character's 'mean, snotty, holier-than-thou' act is downright bullshit. I've faced scarier things than him."
The Weasleys nodded, and hurried outside into the less crowded streets as Mrs. Weasley paid for the books.
