Notes: I am taking some quotes from the Sorcerer's Stone.

Buffy, Willow, Dawn, Faith, and Xander were amazed at what they saw in front of them. The street was filed with shops that carried anything that a witch or wizard could need. Dumbeldore led them down the street towards a white building that was several stories high. Willow some how knew that it had to be Gringotts.

When they arrived, Willow saw something engraved on the wall by the door. It read:

Enter stranger, but take heed

Of what awaits the sin of greed,

For those who take, but do not earn,

Must pay most dearly in their turn,

So if you seek beneath our floors,

A treasure that was never yours,

Thief, you have been warned, beware

Of finding more than treasure there.

Willow looked at Buffy and said, "Nobody would want to steal from this place. Especially with that warning."

"Willow, people have tried but are rarely seen again. The goblins take pride in their security measures." Dumbeldore said as he led them to a desk that was labeled new accounts.

When they arrived, Dumbeldore asked Faith and Xander to come to the desk with him. "These two young people would like to start their own vaults. I will sign with them." Dumbeldore told the goblin when he looked up. The goblin quickly filled out the forms and handed Faith and Xander vault keys.

They all went over to another desk and had their money changed and some of it deposited in their vaults. Angel had given Faith a large amount of cash to help her start over. Willow, Buffy, and Xander had the rest of their insurance money that had come from the house and cars being destroyed. After they had gotten some wizard coins, they all walked out of the bank on to Diagon Alley.

Dumbeldore told them that he had planned to spend the day helping them get every thing that they need to teach at Hogwarts. Their first stop was Madame Malkin's Robes for All Occasions. Buffy, Faith, Willow, Dawn, and Xander all got several sets of everyday robes plus a set of dress robes. Dumbeldore had told them that there was to be a Yule Ball at Christmas. He wanted to give the students something to look forward to. He also told Buffy that he had arranged to have the Ministry of Magic to pay for the younger Slayers' robes. Buffy was relived to not have to worry about paying for every thing.

The next stop was Flourish and Blotts. Willow was in awe of all the magic books. Buffy told Professor Dumbeldore that Willow was a bookworm at heart. Willow picked out several books to teach from and picked up all of the Standard spell books that Professor Dumbeldore had suggested. Buffy was glad that she had slayer strength because the books were really heavy.

Buffy dragged everyone to the magical creatures shop. She wanted to get an owl so that they wouldn't have to depend on the school owls. She picked a snowy white owl.

As they left the shop, Dumbeldore said, "That owl reminds me of Harry's owl Hedwig. That owl seems to come to me when he thinks that Harry is lonely or in trouble."

"I think that she is beautiful. I am going to call her Kendra." Buffy said with a sad smile on her face. She though of the Slayer Kendra and how she had died.

"Come on, everyone. I still need to get my wand." Willow said as she almost bounced out of her shoes.

Professor Dumbeldore led them to Olivander's Makers of Fine Wands. They entered the store and it looked like no one was there.

"Mr. Olivander." Professor Dumbeldore called out. An older man came out of the back of the store.

"Albus what brings you to my store today?" Mr. Olivander asked.

"Ms. Rosenberg needs her first wand." Dumbeldore told him.

Mr. Olivander took several measurement of Willow. Then he went off to find wands for her to try. Willow looked around the room and felt drawn to a dusty box that sat in the corner. She opened it and took a hold of the wand that was lying in the box. Willow felt a warm and fuzzy feeling and knew that this was her wan.

Mr. Olivander came back and said, "Curious!"

"What is so different about Willow's wand?" Buffy asked.

"That wand has been in this store for over 2000 years before it finally picked its owner. Each wand picks it own not the other way around. Each wand has a core of a magical creature in it. This wand has two. The wand was made from the hair of a Slayer covered in vampire blood." Mr. Olivander told them.

"That's no biggie. I am her best friend and I have been the Slayer since I was fifteen. She also knows Angelus and William The Bloody." Buffy told him.

Mr. Olivander was a little shocked at Buffy's statement. "Please accept this wand as my gift to you." Mr. Olivander said to willow. Willow thanked him and the group headed back to the Leaky Cauldron. Once they arrived, everyone sat down at a table.

"I have to leave you now, but I need to know when you want to come to Hogwarts." Dumbeldore asked.

"The day after tomorrow would be great. Tomorrow we can get the rest of the group's robes." Buffy told him. "We also have to get everyone trunks because everything will not fit into our suitcases. Willow's books alone wouldn't fit in the biggest suitcase we got."

"I will send Hagrid to get you. Since there are so many in your group, you will be taking the Hogwarts Express out of Kings Cross Station on Platform 9 ¾." Dumbeldore told them. Then he vanished.

The next day, Willow and Buffy took the younger Slayers and Andrew to get Madame Malkin's. It took them several hours to get everyone outfitted with robes and dress robes.

After a quick lunch at the Leaky Cauldron, Buffy and Xander went back into Diagon Alley to pick up trunks for everyone. The suitcases just wouldn't hold everything and Willow need someplace to store her books. So Xander and Buffy picked out trunks that fit everyone's needs. Buffy even found one for herself that had handles shaped like stakes.

After dinner, Willow and Buffy sat talking by the fire. Everyone else was packing so that they would be ready to leave for the station in the morning. Buffy and Willow called it an early night and went to bed.
