Chapter 3
XxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxX
The next morning I awoke early and put on my muggle clothes. I had never had any wizard robes before. Mum and I got into the fireplace and arrived at Diagon Alley. It was wonderful. There were cobblestone streets with small shops lined up and down them. The streets were bustling with tons of people. Mostly students shopping for their school materials.
"Ok, Celissia," Mum said, taking out the supply list," why don't we get your books?"
"Alright," I replied excitedly.
We headed into Flourish and Botts. I had never seen so many books in my life! A man in green robes walked up to us and asked, "Would you ladies like any help?"
"Oh yes. Thank you. We are looking for these books," said Mum, handing over the list of books.
"Hmmm.interesting. You have quite a variety of different grade books. This one here is for sixth years and these are for seventh," said the man with a look of confusion on his face.
"Yes, my daughter has been home schooled all her life, and we haven't quite covered the sixth year standard level studies. She is mostly on a seventh and above level. We skipped around somewhat in all her lessons. She is actually supposed to be out of school right now."
"Oh, I see. Right then. I will gather up these books on your list. Be right back," said the man while walking away with the list.
"Well this isn't too bad, huh?" Mum asked looking around the store.
"No, no. Not at all," I said while also glancing around.
A large group of students walked past the window. I noticed four of them had fiery red hair. Two of which, best I could tell were identical and about my age.
"Here you go ladies. Feel free to browse around the store. And you have a nice school year," said the man while winking at me.
We paid for the books and walked out of the store. Mum exclaimed, "Why don't you go to the Magical Menagerie and get you a nice animal to assist you at school? I think you deserve one."
She took out some gold wizard money from her pocketbook and placed it in my hand. "Really? Thanks, Mum!"
"I'm going to go get you a cauldron and some robes. You be off now and I'll meet you back here in about twenty minutes."
"Ok, see you in a bit then!"
As I headed toward the Magical Menagerie, I passed several more students, some of which were carrying cages or were holding a creature of some sort. I opened the door of the shop and heard several animal noises and the excited chattering of people looking at the creatures.
I saw some ginger-coloured cats and an assortment of different coloured and sized toads. There was a small crowd hovered around some cages so I thought I would take a look.
There were owls of all colours. Some were small and grey, others were large barn owls. One in particular caught my eye though. He was small and white with beautiful amber eyes. I had made up my mind.
"Excuse me, sir? I think I'll take that snow-coloured owl right there."
"What a fine choice, indeed. Bred nicely in Algeria. He's one of the finest breeds of owls. Will make a very nice pet- and friend," he added happily. He took down the cage and owl and I walked up to the cash register. I waited for a few minutes, as there was some trouble with a cat not wanting to get bought. I made my purchase and was almost to the door when I saw a few people rushing past the door screaming. I quickly opened it and ran out to see what the commotion was about. There was a small crowd hovered around what appeared to be a heap lying on the street. I ran over to the crowd and screamed in horror at what I saw.
