Disclaimer: I don't own any anything. Well, I own my money, my kitty, and
my clothes, but not the Harry Potter stuff. I'm just stealing them, *looks
around and coughs* I mean, borrowing them. Jk..
A/N: Some people may change a bit here. I don't know what's going to happen yet. I'm just going to write as I go along.
**Harry's POV**
They stopped around a corner from The Leaky Cauldron, and parked the car. Petunia was very defiant and did not get out of the car.
"No Vernon. I still can't believe your letting our Darling Dudley go to this ruddy Hogs school of Pigs and Donkeys. We have to waste our good money because some fool can't determine genetics well. Our boy was not meant to be this way!" Petunia argued.
Vernon waited until the boys got out of the car. "Petunia, maybe this will change Dudley. I mean, he certainly is a very defiant child. Maybe this magic stuff will help him come to terms with himself. I still hate this way of doing it, but I don't want my boy going to that bloody school Potter should have gone to!"
Petunia stuck her nose in the air and turned her head to the other side of this window.
Vernon got out of the car and began walking towards the pub. "Lets go boy, show us where we get to this bloody Alleyway."
"Uncle Vernon, you can't go in with us. Muggles aren't aloud into Diagon Alley. You'll have to pick us up later." Harry said, looking a bit uneasy at the thought of being alone with Dudley the whole time.
Vernon looked thoughtful for a moment then nodded. "Alright boy, but if Dudley gets hurt, it'll be your neck I have. I'll be back here in 1 hour. You got that boy?" Vernon asked.
Harry nodded the proceeded to walk to The Leaky Cauldron. Dudley looked at his dad then turned and followed Harry.
They walked into the pub and everything went quieted as everyone's gazes shifted on to Harry.
"Welcome back Mr. Potter. Can I get you anything? A Butterbeer? Water? Tea?" The bartender asked, looking slightly nervous.
"No thank you sir, we are just heading into Diagon Alley to get our school supplies for Hogwarts." Stated Harry.
"Alright, sir, come back anytime!" The bartender said while trying to do something with his shaking hands. He picked up and glass and accidentally dropped it, his hands were shaking so badly.
Harry walked over to a door that lead to the outside.
"What was that all about Potter?" Dudley asked.
"Nothing." Harry muttered while tapping the right bricks to get into Diagon Alley.
The bricks starting moving to form a passage. Harry yawned, while Dudley was staring at the wall in awe and wonder.
When the bricks finally finished forming an entrance, Dudley pushed Harry to the ground. "Race you to the other side Potter!" Dudley screamed while galloping to the other side of the wall. "I win, Potter, and try again next time!"
Dudley scream attracted a lot of attention. Many witches and wizards turned to look at the famous Harry Potter just as Dudley pushed him down. They all gasped when Harry hit the ground.
Parvati and Padma Patil both ran over and helped Harry off the ground.
"Are you alright, Harry?" They asked simultaneously.
"Yeah. Fine." He stated. "Just my oaf cousin finally getting a letter to Hogwarts."
"Oh that one kid you, Ron and Hermione always talk about? The one that's always mean to you over vacations?" Parvati asked.
"That'd be me!" Dudley exclaimed. "Now lets go get my stuff, Potter. We've only got an hour here."
"He treats you like a house elf!" Padma whispered to Harry. "I'm sorry we can't do anything to help you Harry."
"It's ok. I'm fine." Said Harry. "We've got to go though. Bye!"
"Bye!" They said at the same time. They rushed back over to the candy shop.
"Dudley. First we need to go to Gringotts to get some wizarding money."
The walked over to Gringotts, seeing as how it was that far away. They walked in and Harry walked over to a goblin at a desk.
"Excuse me sir. My name is Harry Potter and I need to make a withdrawal from my vault." Harry said, looking like a businessman.
"And do you, Mr. Potter have your key?" The goblins asked, ginning at Harry.
"Yes sir, I do."
Harry handed him his vault key, who in turn handed it to another goblin.
"Follow me." Said the other goblin.
Harry and Dudley followed the other goblin to a cart. They sat down on it.
"Get ready." Said Harry, smirking, as he knew Dudley was confused.
"For wh-?" Asked Dudley, but he was cut off by the cart zooming down passageways and corridors to get to Harry's vault.
The cart finally stopped and Dudley looked like he was gunan puke while Hrry was holding the side of the cart, looking like he was going to burst out laughing any minute.
"Lamp please." Said the goblin. Harry handed him the lamp and they all got out of the cart. "Key please." Said the goblin, while Harry handed him the key.
Harry went into his vault and got out 100 galleons, 50 sickles, and 50 knuts to be sure he had enough for all Dudley's and his stuff.
They got back in the cart and got to the exit of Gringotts. They left and stood in front.
"Ok Dudley. Second we need to get your wand. We need to go to Mr. Olivander's shop." Stated Harry.
Harry and Dudley walked across Diagon Alley for about 5 minutes before reaching the wand shop. They walked in and Olivander grinned.
"Back again, Mr. Potter?" He asked.
"Well, my cousin Dudley just got accepted into Hogwarts and he needs a wand."
"Oh Right. Then why don't we start you out with this one?" Olivander said as he handed Dudley a beautiful oak coloured wand. Dudley just stood there and looked at it, quizzically. "Well, give it a wave."
"Right." Said Dudley, waving the wand like it was a flag. Back and fourth, back and fourth.
Nothing happened at all, and Dudley kept waving the wand, faster and faster. Dudley had a look of pure determination on his face when it didn't work.
Harry just looked at Dudley like he was mad, then he burst out laughing.
"Well, it looks like that isn't the wand for you. Try this." Olivander said holding out another wand.
About 50 wands later Dudley finally found his perfect wand. Harry paid 14 galleons, 12 sickles, and 5 knuts for it and they left.
"Well, I suppose now you need to get your Hogwarts robes." Harry said.
"Ok." Muttered Dudley, now stringing is new wand between his fingers.
They walked over to the dressing shop. They walked in. "Excuse me ma'am. My cousin needs some Hogwarts robes, and a uniform."
"Yes, Mr. Potter, the Headmaster told me to expect you." The lady said. "Right then. Mr. Dursley, please step up here." She point to a wooden box in the middle of the room. "We need to size you down so we can get you some robes."
"This should take a while." Harry stated matter-of-factly.
"Shut up, Potter." Dudley yelled.
"Now, now boys! No more yelling in my shop. Mr. Potter, would you kindly take a seat in the other room while I size this boy up."
"Actually ma'am, we only have an hour here so do you mind if I go get our books and come back?" Harry asked.
"Well, no doubt this should take awhile (Harry snorted at this comment), so yes. You may come back in 20 minutes." The lady said.
Harry turned around and walked out of the shop. Harry wandered around for a bit until he finally got to the book store. He walked in
"Hello there, Potter." Came a mysterious voice from the shadows. "Where is the little mudblood and the weasel? They abandon you? That's pretty sad, considering you're the one that's famous."
Harry recognized the voice as Draco Malfoy's.
"Sod off, Mafoy." Harry said. "Nobody in their right mind would want to talk to you. Except maybe Crabbe or Goyle, but I said in their right mind so, they don't count."
"Good one, Potter." Draco sneered. "That one hit me where it hurt."
Before Harry had a chance to reply, Malfoy walked out of the store. Harry quickly grabbed double coppies of every book they needed that year, paid for them and left to go back to the dressing shop.
When he got back Dudley was standing in a black robe with his hogwarts uniform and other robes in a bag. Harry stifled a laugh and paid for his robes and uniform. They walked out of the shop and stood in front of it.
"You will need an owl, cat or a toad to bring to school. What do you pick?" Harry asked.
"An owl. I've got to write Mum and Dad haven't I?" Dudley sneered.
"Right then. Follow me."
Harry led them over to the animal shop. Dudley picked out a brown owl. Harry quickly paid for it and they left. They sat down on a bench and Dudley started pouting.
"Potter, I'm hungry."
"When aren't you?"
"Shut up and buy me something to eat!" Dudley demanded.
"What if I don't?" Harry asked, rising to the challenge.
"I'll grind you to a pulp!" Said Dudley, smashing his fist into his other hand.
"Oh alright!" Giving up, and Grabbing Dudley's bags, Harry headed over to the Ice Cream Shop. Dudley followed shortly after, plopping himself down on an empty chair.
"What do they serve here, Potter?" Dudley asked. "Frog legs?"
Harry glared at him and clenched his teeth. "Ice Cream."
"Oh they serve something normal, do they?" Dudley Continued. "They don't put eyeballs in them do they? Or use blood for syrup?"
"No."
"Right then. I want the biggest banana split they got!" Dudley yelled.
The waitress delivered it along with Harry's chocolate ice cream. Dudley practically sucked it in. Harry groaned.
'Why does he have to eat like that?' Harry thought.
When they were finished Dudley left his bowl and spoon on the table, them both licked clean.
He just walked away. Grabbing his bags going into the quidditch shop.
Harry left a tip and followed Dudley into the shop. Many kids were drooling over the newest model of broom.
The Thunderstrike 200.
Dudley just looked at them like they were mad. He muttered something that sounded like 'I could buy that at a second hand store.'
Harry walked over to him and said "Come on, Dudley. We've been in Diagon Alley for nearly an hour. We have to go."
"Alright! Keep your trousers on, Potter!" Dudley complained.
They walked back to The Leaky Cauldron and knocked on the wall. It opened from the other side to reveal the bartender standing there smiling nervously at Harry.
They walked back through the pub, and out the other door to find a buggered looking Vernon standing by his car.
"Dad! Look what I've got!" Said Dudley waving his wand. Nothing happened though.
Vernon flinched when Dudley got close with the wand. "Get in the car boys! Now!"
They got in the car and drove back to Privet drive.
