Wow, I've gotten this far in two days, just want you to know that J.K. Rowling owns all the characters except for Skyla, Lyenna, Elessa Kyari, and all the girls and women at the orphanage.

Unknown Secret
Chapter 3, Diagon Alley
Hagrid led Skyla out the door. All that was there was a garbage can and a wall. How could this be Diagon Alley? To her surprise, Hagrid took out a pink umbrella and tapped a brick three times with it. Skyla gasped as the bricks moved aside to form an arch and past that…
"This is Diagon Alley." said Hagrid. There were rows and rows of shops and people. So much that Skyla just stood there with her mouth hanging open until Hagrid said, "Well, blimey, come on. Ya can' stand there all day gapin'."
"Oh, yeah, right." she said and flushed with embarrassment.
"Now, what does your letter say you need?" he asked.
"Oh, umm…" For the first time she noticed the letter that Professor Dumbledore had handed her. She opened it and saw:
Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry
Headmaster: Albus Dumbledore
(Order of Merlin, First Class, Grand Sorc., Chf. Warlock, Supreme Mugwump, International Confed. Of Wizards)
Dear Miss Auren,
We are pleased to inform you that you have been accepted at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Please find enclosed a list of all necessary books and equipment.
Term begins on September 1. We await your owl by no later than July 31.
Yours sincerely,
Minerva McGonagall,
Deputy Headmistress
"Owl?" She asked Hagrid.
"Yeah, in the wizarding world, we send letters by owl" He said, as if it were saying; stop signs are red. "What does your supply list say?"
"Umm…" she said, looking at the other list. "I need robes, a hat, gloves, a lot of books, a wand, a cauldron, phials, a telescope, and scales. Oh look, we can also bring an owl, a cat, or a toad. I've always wanted a cat."
"All righ' then, here's Olivanders, you can get your wand here." he said, pushing the door open.
It was a rather dim lighted place. The man at front said, "ello, who are you? "
"S-Skyla Auren" she said nervously.
"Really?" he said with great interest. "Aren't you dead?"
"N-no" she stammered.
"Obviously, obviously…" he said and pulled out a tape measure and it started to measure Skyla by itself. He then looked at the shelves and shelves of long , skinny boxes and pulled one down. He opened it and handed it to Skyla. "Now just wave it." She did and to her surprise, one of the lamps shattered. "Quite all right, quite all right. Try, umm, this one." He said and handed her another. She waved it and it glittered blue and silver on the end. "I thought this one would be it, yes…Ebony, 10 ½ inches, unicorn hair." he said and put it back in the box. "That will be seven Galleons."
"What?" asked Skyla.
"Galleons" said Hagrid."In that bag Dumbledore gave you, Seven of the big gold ones."
"Oh" she said and opened the bag, taking out seven and handing them to the man. Hagrid handed her a bag and she put the wand in it.
They left the store and heard a yell from down the street. "Hagrid!" Skyla tuned to look and from down the alley came running two boys and a girl. One of the boys had red hair and the other had messy black hair and bright green eyes. The girl's hair was brown and bushy.
"Hello!" said Hagrid. "This is Skyla, I'm taking her around to get her school supplies."
"Nice to meet you." said the boy with black hair. "I'm Harry Potter, this is Ron Weasley," he said, indicating the red head, "and Hermione Granger." He said, indicating the girl.
"Hello." She replied shyly
"Well, bye, we have to go meet mum." said Ron, and they went off.
Skyla and Hagrid went through the shops, and got all of her supplies. She still had quite a lot of coins in the bag. She said to Hagrid, "I think I want to get a cat."
"Okay," he said, "the Magical Menagerie is right here" and he walked into the store. There were so many cats to chose from, but finally chose one named Elessa Kyari. She was black with gray striped paws and tail. She went on the subway back feeling quite excited with the way her life was going.
