Chapter #6: The Journey to Diagon Alley
Jamie started walking across the street, humming and glancing around the neighborhood in which she lived in. A few ways down was Sam's home. That is were Jamie is suppose to meet them, of course she knew that they would go to Diagon Alley by Floo powder. Usually, they went to Reese's house for that sort of transportation. Jamie was just about a block away from the Black's house and she smiled at the thought of it. That was the only place, besides Reese's house, where she got wonderful respect and loving matters from everyone in that particular household. She saw the roof of Samantha's house and Jamie ran toward it, her green cloak waving from behind. However, once Jamie had gotten to the fence post, she stopped quickly. Jamie clutched her head, pain shooting throughout her head. She heard screaming getting louder inside of her.
"Jay? Jamie!"
Jamie snapped her eyes open. Sam was standing in front of Jamie, with her eyes wide open and looking concerned. Jamie was breathing heavily.
"D-Didn't you hear that?" asked Jamie, rubbing her red hair and her emerald eyes shinning.
"Hear what?" asked Sam, looking worried.
Jamie looked at her, with a puzzled expression spread across her face. Sam's mother came out from the front door, holding a something in her arms. Her eyes wondered towards Jamie.
"Jamie, dear, are you all right?" Nina inquired Jamie, who still looked confused.
"Y-Yes, Mrs. Black," replied Jamie. "I'm fine, thanks. Er…where's 'Snuffles'?"
Nina almost forgot all about her own husband.
"Oh!" exclaimed Nina, clapping her hands on her mouth. " 'Snuffles' will be ready in a few. And, you Samantha—" Sam whined again. "—You better wear your cloak while you're at Diagon Alley. Heavens, knows how long you will be there."
Sam rolled her eyes and took the purple cloak from her mother. Jamie giggled. She always wondered what it would be like if her own mother was still alive. She expected that her relationship with her mother will probably be just like Sam's and Nina's. Jamie watched as a large black dog bounded down the stairs of the house. Sam jerked her head in the right direction, towards Reese's house.
"Are you excited?" asked Sam, walking next to Sirius.
"'Bout what?" asked Jamie, looking around the peaceful and quiet neighborhood. "Going to Diagon Alley for the first time? Yeah, of course."
Sam sighed and shook her head. Jamie didn't know what to say. She heard 'Snuffles' whine, impatiently. Sam walked in silence again. She didn't feel like asking Jamie anymore questions that Jamie didn't have a clue about. Jamie, on the other hand, wondered about the wonderful, magical objects that she was about to encounter in moments. The most wanted thing she wanted was her brand new wand. Oh, what wonderful, prank things she could do. Sirius barked loudly, snapping Jamie out of her daydream. They reached the Lupin residence.
"Oy, where's Reese?" asked Jamie. She peered over the fence. "Reese! Get your butt out here and let us in!"
Reese's senses already told her that her friends were outside of her house. She jumped out of the door and ran to the fence. Remus Lupin came out soon after, in his shabby muggle clothes. Unlike some teenagers, Reese didn't give one damn about how her father dressed or looked. She was just thankful for having a father that loved her and cared for her. Remus smiled at the three young girls and then nodded towards 'Snuffles'.
"Ready are we?" asked Remus, allowing their visitors through the fence. The girls nodded. "Well, off we go then."
Jamie walked into the Lupin household and lined up against the fireplace entrance. Sirius bonded inside, wagging his tail excitedly for reasons that Jamie, Reese nor Sam knew about. Remus stood near their fireplace and took out a bowl of smooth powder.
"Alright, who would like to go –" started Remus, but was cut off by Jamie's voice.
"I will! I will!"
Remus smiled and placed the small bowl in front of Jamie. She placed her hand inside of it and grabbed a handful of Floo powder. She then walked into the fireplace and faced towards the small crowd who stood before her. Jamie raised her hand up in front of her and shouted:
"Diagon Alley!"
She threw it down and a bursting colour of dark green sprinted up in front of her. Jamie then disappeared. After she had gone, Sirius had changed back into his human form and looked around, cheerily.
"So!" he said, clapping his hands together. "Who's next?"
Reese and Sam looked at one another.
"She is," they both said, pointing at each other.
