Dream Come True

Chapter 7: Diagon Alley
Jennie was sitting on her bed, already dressed in her favorite red robes, ready to go to Diagon Alley. A knock came at the door. "Come in." She said tiredly. Harry opened the door slowly, and came in quite bashfully. (The 2 had talked scarcely during her time there, as she spent most of her time with Fred and George.) "Are you . . . ? Are you ready to go?" Harry asked. "Yes, I just have to get my purse." Jennie smiled getting up and going over to the dresser and pulling open a drawer. "All set." She said as she retrieved it. "We're going by Floo. You've used Floo before, haven't you?" Harry said making light conversation down the hallway and the stairs. "Mmm..." She replied with a nod.
"Hello, Jennie." Mrs. Weasley smiled. "How about you go first then."
"All right." Jennie smiled, heading over to the fireplace, grabbing a handful of Floo Powder. "It's Diagon Alley, dear." Molly told her. "Diagon Alley!" Jennie said loudly as she threw down the powder. She suddenly found herself amidst a crowded street. As she began to gather her bearings, Ginny appeared. "What do...What is..." Jennie said excitedly glancing around. She was used to shopping malls. She wasn't used to the multitude of witches and wizards all in an outside, shopping town.
Soon, Molly, Harry, Hermione, and Ron were all surrounding her also. "Where shall we start?" Molly smiled at Jennie's interest of the place. "Jennie, what sort of money do you have?" Ginny asked. "Pounds. Isn't that what you have?" Jennie replied a little confused. "You only converted to muggle English currency then. All right, let's go to Gringotts." Molly replied knowingly. With that, they set off to a large, wizarding bank manned by goblins.
Once Jennie had gotten the correct wizarding currency, they were able to shop. Jennie took her 7th year school supply list from her bag. "I s'pose the book store for me..." Jennie announced, reading over the list.

Molly gently took the paper from Jennie's hands. "Well! I guess it is the book store then!" Molly confirmed. They headed toward the bookstore, and once inside, went their separate ways. Molly and Ginny went looking for Ginny's books, Ron, Harry, and Hermione for theirs, and Jennie on her own.
Jennie confusedly walked up and down aisles looking for her books. It was very busy and crowded, Jennie guessed that they were all last minute shoppers. A tall Asian girl with long, straight black hair was also looking for a book. Jennie located it first and picked up "Charming Charms". "Um...Hi?" The Asian girl said to Jennie unsurely tucking one of her many blood-red streaks of hair behind her ear. "Hi." Jennie smiled. "Do they have any more of those?" The girl asked. "Yeah. Here." Jennie said reaching for the second and last copy. "Thanks." She gratefully took the book, "Say, where do you go to school?"
"Um...Well, I'm sort of transferring to a place called Hogwarts." Jennie scratched the back of her neck. "No kidding? I go there. You must be 7th year, to get that book. I'm Sara Camui." Sara said outstretching her arm. Jennie shook her hand briskly. "I'm Virgencina Garland. But, you can call me Jennie." Jennie smiled. "Nice to meet ya!" Sara said joyfully, "Eh...What house? Or don't you know?"
"Um...Yeah. Slytherin." Jennie said unsurely. "Cool. Same here. Look, maybe I'll show ya around once school starts up and all." Sara offered. "Oh really? Thanks. That would be great." Jennie replied looking at the end of the aisle to see Molly and the clan. "Jennie, dear! Are you ready to pay?" Molly asked. Sara's eyes narrowed at Harry, Ron, Hermione, and Ginny. "Yeah. Um, Be right there." Jennie said to them. "So, see you at school?" Jennie asked Sara. "Um . . . Yes. It would appear so." Sara said eying the retreating people cautiously. "I gotta go anyway. See ya around, eh . . . Jennie." Sara said roughly weaving her way through Molly and the teens, her lip curling and eyes narrowed. Molly didn't notice, but all 4 of them were also returning the look of hatred. Jennie, confused walked over to the check out. "These people are so strange . . . " She muttered as she took her place in the long line.

"Ah...I guess we should part ways. Jennie still needs to get the basics. Let's go to the Joke Shop first." Molly smiled hiding a secret. Jennie shrugged and followed along. They finally arrived, and Jennie peered curiously at the shop sign. "Weasley's Wizarding Wheezes". Peculiar. There couldn't possibly be another 'Weasley' family. "You OWN this shop???" Jennie asked Molly in slow settling in shock. "Not exactly..." Molly replied with a smirk. They entered inside. A shop girl stood behind the desk. "G'Day Mrs. Weasley. Guys..." the girl said pausing when she saw Jennie. "Lydia, would you be a dear and fetch the twins, please?" Molly said stealing a glance at Jennie, who was struggling not to let her shock get the best of her. "Sure thing." Lydia replied walking into the back room.
In a brief moment, Fred, George, and Lydia returned. "Jennie. Welcome to our humble little shop! What do you think?" Fred asked with a broad smile, and a glance at Harry. "Why didn't you tell me that you guys had a shop?" Jennie asked. "Wouldn't want to spoil the surprise would we?" George nodded at his brother. "People, People. How many times have I told you? Buy something, or get out!" Fred chuckled. "Well...We did need one of you to show Jennie around, help her find what she needs for school." Molly said with a satisfying smile.
"I dunno. We have lots of work here. Plenty to re-order." George sighed. "Nothing that only one of us can't do! I'll take you Jen. George, you can stay and be the boring one." Fred smiled, "I could use a break. I work so hard anyways..." He yanked off his shop apron, and walked around the counter. "See ya, Georgie boy!" Fred said with a wide grin as he and Jennie left. George had rolled his eyes and shook his head and continued talking to his mother, siblings, Harry and Hermione.
and you won't be owling Danny anymore." Molly said casually smiling, and taking the owl and stuffing him in his cage and twirled on her foot leaving. " I HATE YOU ALL! YOU'RE NOT GETTING ANY DREAMS!" Jennie screamed loudly losing all her composure, she flopped on her bed energy-less. No emotion struck her face. She lay down slowly because the only thing to do was...dream.
