Chapter 2- Diagon Alley

Abby couldn't wait for Hogwarts. Today was the day she finally would leave. Chelsea had already owled her saying she would be a few minutes late. It was because she was having a bad hair day but she told Abby not to tell Mrs. Lafarge that.

Abby brought her trunk out with all of her new clothes in it. With all of her BlackCat books out of the trunk it was so much lighter. Abby's mom stood on the porch waiting for Abby to come. She kept calling her. "ABBY GET DOWN HERE WE HAVE TO BE UP AT THE SCHOOL AT 8:00 AND IT'S 7:36 RIGHT NOW!" "I'LL BE DOWN IN A SEC0ND, I'M JUST FINISHING MY HAIR."

As Abby came downstairs her mother looked at her and said, "Finally."

When Abby and her mom took the train back to BlackCat she saw all of her classmates waiting outside the doors of the cafeteria. Breakfast was still going and would end at 8:15 until then they all had to wait outside.

When Mrs. Lafarge came around from what looked like the backdoors of the cafeteria she summoned all of us to come through the back so we wouldn't start a commotion by seeing all of our friends and making them late for class.

At the same time we were leaving Chelsea looking flushed from running screamed my name. "ABBY I'M HERE! WHERE ARE YOU GOING?" Mrs. Lafarge gave her a dirty look. Abby looked at her and mouthed, "Come one. We're supposed to go through the back." Chelsea mouthed back, "O.k." Abby and Chelsea always knew what the other person thought or mouthed they had been together for so long.

It was now 8:20 so the big group went inside to talk about the plans.

"Now we will be flooing to the Leaky Cauldron then we will get our school lists and buy all of our supplies. We will be staying in Diagon Allies inn for the remainder of the summer. Then we will meet down in the bar and the next instructions will be given. Choose somebody to be your buddy for the rest of the trip. Then when I call your name tell me whom you will be sitting by. This person will be your buddy for the remainder of our stay until Hogwarts."

"Chelsea Allen? Abby Thompson."

"Kelsey Andriot? Paige Gillum."

"David Baxter? Jack Hogue."

"Alicia Breitfeilder? McKenzie Short."

"Will Brooks? Brad Smith."

"Blake Colman? Dylan Zoffuto."

"Trudy Estes? Hayley Smith."

"Clayton Payne? Jonathan Reid."

I have these written down. So you better stay with your buddy. Come on we will floo to the Leaky Cauldron in 5 minutes. They are expecting us then."

"Hey Abby! Are you as excited as I am?"

"No way." Abby said.

As five minutes passed Mrs. Lafarge took everyone according to partners. Abby and Chelsea were the first to go. Again like Abby had felt flooing to Gringotts there was the spinning, and then it stopped. As soon as Abby looked up she saw Chelsea sitting on a chair in the bar area. Next to her was an old guy who was bald and looked like a toothless walnut. He looked up at Abby and smiled.

"Hi my name is Tom. I'm the innkeeper here."

"Hello. I'm Abby, nice to meet you." Abby said politely.

As the rest of Abby's classmates came Tom introduced himself each time with a different sentence. As Mrs. Lafarge came last Tom knew to begin the next instructions with the headmistresses help.

"As you all know my name is Tom. I have a few rules since there are so many of you. Number one, stay with someone at all times. Number two, no running around after 8:00 that is your curfew. Number three, the last and most important rule, have fun, it's your vacation."

"All right kids time to get up to your rooms. Here are your keys you will be in the same room as your buddy."

Abby and Chelsea ended up with room 12. It had a very pretty view of the muggle London. As Chelsea and Abby settled in and changed into their pajamas, each one was overcome by sleep within a couple minutes of hitting the pillows.

(((((((NEXT DAY))))))))

As 7:00 approached each and every room got a phone call to be dressed and ready for breakfast at 8:15.

Abby gradually got up and walked into the bathroom to get ready for school shopping. She took a shower first. Soon after she ran into the closet and pulled out baby blue robes and put her make-up on. She was dressed and ready at 8:00 so she went ahead and left to have breakfast.

At 8:17 every person was dressed and downstairs for breakfast. As Tom and a few helpers passed around toast and bacon everybody grabbed whatever they felt would please them. By 9:45 everyone was full and ready to start the day.

Before anyone left their seats, Mrs. Lafarge handed out envelopes to each person, Abby Thompson's read:

Deputy Head Mistress,

Abby was so excited that she pulled Chelsea out of her seat and asked Tom how to get to Diagon Alley. He went to the back of the Leaky Cauldron and tapped on some bricks. Then magically the bricks moved aside to show a street full of people. Abby saw so many stores. Finally Chelsea and her decided on a store. They would go into Madame Malkins robes for all occasions.

When they walked inside someone immediately greeted them, Abby guessed it was Madame Malkin. "Hello dears, what can I help you with today?"

Chelsea showed Madame Malkin her letter. She read it out loud to herself and asked Abby if she was going to Hogwarts as well.

"Yes."

"Well what color dress robes do you want? I think red would look good on you." She indicated towards Chelsea.

"Um...yeah sure. Whatever looks good." Chelsea always acted this way.

Then without any warning, Madame Malkin turned abruptly to Abby and acted as though this was the first time she had seen Abby's blue eyes.

"I know for a fact baby blue would make you look astonishing." She said not taking her eyes away from Abby.

Abby just gawked. She knew that was her color but something about the way this lady, this old lady that didn't even know her, but somehow she felt as if Madame Malkin had seen right through her.

"Er...thanks. Should we get measured now?"

It seemed to take Madame Malkin a while before she took in what Abby had just said. Then swiftly she moved towards the counter taking her eyes off of Abby's to get the tape measurer.

About an hour later Chelsea, and Abby left the robe shop with all new robes and cloaks for the school year. The next shop down was Flourish and Blotts for all of the books. As soon as Chelsea and Abby walked in they saw flashes in their eyes. They could barely see over the reporter's heads but knew it had to be somebody famous. Who else would get this much attention? Who cared there was no reason to bother and find out. Abby and Chelsea carried on with picking out her books. The Standard Book of Spells (Grade 6) By: Miranda Goshawk.

"Its definitely a famous person." Supposed Chelsea.

"Did you see who?" Abby inquired.

"No, but I guess we'll find out in the papers...if we ever find out how to get a paper over here." Abby left at the thought of that. Chelsea had never read a paper in her life. She didn't expect to see her reading one now. Abby then went on to the next book. A History of Magic By: Bathilda Bagshot.

"Chels I found it. The History of Magic book is right here."

"Oh good, now we need Magical Charms by: Adalbert Waffling. I think I see the charms sections way over there."

As Abby and Chelsea crossed over to the opposite end of the bookstore someone walked right in front of Abby full force. Abby being a petite adolescent fell to the floor. The figure saw sitting down there and said sorry, and left before Abby could find out anything about him although he did have jet black hair that was very messy. Followed behind him was a guy with blazing red hair, then a girl with thick brown curls. They both seem to look down on their way after the boy with messy unkempt hair. They both looked down and said a hurried sorry before leaving too.

"Abby are you ok? I can't believe somebody ran you over. This is only our first day here. Come on I'll help you up but then we need to keep moving."

"Yeah, I'm fine, just shocked. Come on lets go get the rest of our books."

As Abby lead Abby out of the store with books in their hands somebody grabbed both of them and took them into the next alley. As Chelsea started screaming for help a figure told her to be quiet it sounded like a girl. Then the outline stepped in the light and Abby and Chelsea saw it was the boy and his two friends that ran Abby over. Then Abby noticed something else it was the boy in her dream, the one with the messy black hair. This was getting to weird.

"Hi, I just wanted to say I'm really sorry I ran you over. All those reporters were driving us mad and we kind of got out of there in a hurry."

Chelsea spoke next. "It's ok, who are you anyway?"

They looked at each other then the boy with unkempt hair stepped forward and said, "I'm Harry Potter, these are my friends Ron, and Hermione." He saw pointing to the two people standing by him.

"What are your names?" asked the girl named Hermione in a very know-it-all tone.

"I'm Chelsea All and this is my friend Abby Thompson."

"We're here on an exchange trip to Hogwarts. We're from the states." Abby gave a delighted cry.

"Wait...did you saw your name was Harry Potter?" Abby looked amused. Harry didn't.

"Yeah, but lets get off that subject." Harry said annoyed.

"Then maybe you could show us Diagon Alley like you know it we still need all these things." Chelsea said signifying towards the school list.

"Alright." And with that Harry, Ron, and Hermione grabbed the two girls and they went to the next store, the apothecary to get Abby and Chelsea's new pets and their treats.

They came out with two new owls. Abby's was all black named, villanelle and Chelsea's brown, white, and silver owl named ceria with their owl treats. Next they went to get their cauldron, pewter size two, and the telescope. The two girls already had their wand they didn't have to go into what Hermione said was Ollivanders.

The day was ending and they needed to be back in the Leaky Cauldron. As Abby and Chelsea waved goodbye they saw about five other wizards come up and gave them something the next minute they were gone. As they walked into the Leaky Cauldron Tom waved to the girls and said Mrs. Lafarge had something very important to say. Abby and Chelsea walked over to the class.

"Tomorrow you will have to take what is called an OWL. This stands for ordinary Wizarding Level; it will determine your classes. Then we have the rest of the summer to find out your schedule before you leave. Get rested then we will test you in the morning.
