Disclaimer: I don't own anything Harry Potter. Maybe for my next chapter
I'll learn how to say that in German.
A/N: I'm a little disappointed. Nobody has found my Tom Felton quote. And I'm pretty sure I changed Rufio's name. It was a mistake for it to be posted as Rufio in the first place. Sorry ClouDy Skiez. I love Rufio too.
OK now on with the chapter.
Chapter Four: The Wonder Team
A brick wall no longer stood before her. Instead there was an entrance that read Diagon Alley. "Whoa! What is this place?" "Oh this? This is Diagon Alley. This where everyone gets their school supplies," Hagrid chuckled at the look on her face.
"So did yeh bring yer supply list?" "Oh shit," she looked up at Hagrid, who wore a stunned look on his face. "Sorry, wait I think I might have it." She leaned up against the wall and started to dig through her purse. Hagrid stared in amazement "How can yeh fit all that in there?" he asked. She shrugged. "Just can."
She rummaged a bit more until she got a very sheepish look on her face. She closed her purse, reached into her jeans pocket, and pulled out the list. "I got it," she said feeling really stupid. "All right then, let's go," he said and led the way.
They stepped out onto the cobblestone street. Maxi moving her head like crazy. She didn't want to miss anything. She wished she had about 200 more eyes. "Good thing I don't have any money otherwise I wouldn't have any left," she joked.
Then a horrible realization came over her. She stopped dead. "What's the matter?" Hagrid asked concerned. "Hagrid, I don't have any money." "Oh well... don't worry 'bout it. I have strict orders ter pay fer yer supplies and yeh are ter see Dumbledore as soon as you get ter Hogwarts." "Oh OK."
She was still looking around hoping to get a glimpse of any of her classmates. "Hagrid? Do you suppose I'll get ter meet any of my classmates?" He looked down at her and smiled. "Sure. I told Harry, Ron and Hermione that we was comin'," he told her. "Who?"
"Harry, Ron, and Hermione, are fifth years too. They are in Gryffindor," he explained. "In what?" she was really confused now. "Gryffindor. It's a school house. Yeh have all yer classes with yer house and yeh dorm with yer house." She was still a little confused but she didn't want to bother Hagrid.
"How many houses are there and how do you know which one you go into?" she could have kicked herself. She thought for sure she was getting annoying. "Sorry if I'm asking too many questions," she added quickly.
"Don't you worry about it," he chuckled. "There are four houses: Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, and Slytherin. There's a sortin' ceremony and yeh get sorted accordin' to yer strengths." "Oh," she said but she was thinking more along the lines of "What the hell does that mean?"
Just then two frantic witches jumped out of an alley. One, who was wearing dirty, torn, green robes and had short, dark blonde hair, looked like she had lived in the forest for a few months. She was screaming. "Dusseldorf!" The other was much more normal. At least compared to the other. She was wearing deep blue robes that were in fairly good condition. She had really pretty, long, brown hair and hazel eyes that were darting in every direction. "moose," she whispered. "Moose," she said again a little louder. "MOOSE!" she screamed and they both took of running
"What the hell was that?" Maxi asked out loud. "I'm not sure, but they came out of Knockturn Alley. Probably nothin' ter worry about." he said not sounding too sure of himself. She thought it best not to question him any further about it.
"So where are we going first?" she asked as they continued on their way. "Well, let's see, we don't have to go to Gringotts," "What's ...?" Maxi started but Hagrid interrupted her by answering her question. "The wizard bank. So, it looks like we are on our way to Madam Malkins to get you school robes." A few minutes later they walked into a shop.
A smiling women wearing deep purple came up to her. She was a very squat woman. "What can I help you with, dear?" she asked. "Ummm..." "She needs school robes and dress robes." Hagrid answered for her. "All right dear. Follow me. We have some students back there getting new robes right now." Madam Malkin led the way.
Maxi smiled. She might get to meet some kids in her year. When they got to the fitting area she saw a tall, gangly, redhead, with big brown eyes. He was talking to a girl with bushy, brown hair and brown eyes. A third person was getting fitted for new robes. He had jet black hair and striking green eyes. He was rather tall and fairly built. Maxi found him very attractive. Actually, both boys were attractive in her opinion.
She smiled. The thought of going to school with boys like that greatly appealed to her. She also wanted to get aquatinted with these people so she might have some friends before term.
"Hallo, Harry," Hagrid said waving to the boy on the stool. "I didn't expect ter see yeh here." "Yeah. My old robes were a little short," Harry laughed as he hopped down off the stool. "I can see why," Hagrid said. "Yeah, he's almost as tall as me now," the redhead came over followed by the girl. "Oh hallo Ron. Hermione. I didn't see yeh there." Hagrid said and nodded to each one in turn.
Maxi was feeling a tad left out. "Who's this?" Ron asked giving Maxine a once over. She was wearing blue jean flares and a pink peasant style shirt that showed a fair amount of cleavage. "I'm Maxine Nora Mitchell," she said "but you can just call me Maxi."
"I'm Ron Weasley," he replied and put it out for Maxi to shake. "I'm Hermione Granger." Maxi shook her hand as well. "And I'm Harry Potter," Harry waited for her to react to this but was glad and surprised she didn't. Hermione also thought it was strange when Maxi didn't respond to Harry's name.
"What year are you?" she asked. "Ummm... 5th?" she looked at Hagrid for confirmation. Hagrid nodded. "Are you a transfer?" Ron asked curious to the fact that she wasn't sure what year she was in. "Well, I guess you can say that," Maxi replied. "Well you've got an American accent. Did you transfer from Salem's Institute?" Harry asked. Hermione looked impressed. "No. This is my first year at a wizarding school," Maxi told them. "Oh really? How does that work?" Hermione asked.
"Come along, dear. We need to get you fitted." Madam Malkin was getting impatient. Maxi stepped up on the stool and Madam Malkin threw some over sized robes over her head. She was about to answer Hermione's question when another boy came back.
He had white blonde hair that was slicked back. He had mesmerizing silver blue eyes. He was about the same size as Harry. He was more slender but definitely toned. He walked very poised and confident. Behind him was a woman with the same blonde hair and she had dark blue eyes. She was a little bit taller than her son but walked with the same confidence.
Maxi realized that she was staring and quickly looked back at Hermione with the intent of answering her question. The look of disgust on all three of their faces stopped her. She then noticed that there was a whole lot of negative energy. She look to Hagrid hoping for an explanation. Instead, she found another sour expression.
"Heya, Potter. Finally decided to get some new robes?" the boy said in a very prude manner. He glanced at Maxi and got a very evil sneer on his face. "Are you gunna by some for Weasel too? Since he can't afford them."
Ron looked at Maxi and turned bright red. Maxi couldn't help but giggle. His head looked like it was on fire. Harry and Hermione turned to look at her. They had astonished looks on their faces. She looked at Ron who looked like he was a puppy dog who had just been kicked. Maxi felt awful. "Oh Ron, I'm sorry. I wasn't laughing about that. Honest I wasn't." Maxi would have gone and gave him a hug but Madam Malkin was still pinning.
The blonde boy stepped up on the stool next to her. "All ready, dear." Madam Malkin told her. "I need dress robes too." Maxi reminded her. "Oh that's right. This way." Madam Malkin led her to a small room on her right. She stood back, studied Maxi for a second and went searching through the racks of different colored robes.
She came back with an emerald green one and a silvery blue one. Both of which were silk. Maxi tried on the green one as she tried to eavesdrop on the conversation in the other room. "What's a girl like that hanging around you three for? She obviously doesn't know what she's getting herself into," she heard the blonde boy say. "Shut up, Draco," Harry retaliated.
Maxi looked in the mirror. She spun around a bit and took her hair down. It fell in neat layered wisps on her shoulders. She noticed that the green brought out the blue in her eyes. She was still trying to listen to the conversation the others were having. Draco had just said something but she couldn't hear what it was. All she heard was Hermione say "You're such an irritating little ferret." She then mumbled something but Maxi couldn't hear it.
She took the green robes off and put the blue ones on. It looked like rain woven into silk. She twirled around to look at herself in the mirror. When she saw herself she gasped. "Is that me?" she thought to herself. The robes fit nicely over her curves and emphasized the sparkles in her eyes. They brought out the highlights in her hair and hr smile.
Just then she heard an awed "Wow." She turned and saw Hermione in the doorway. "Do you like it?" Maxi asked. "Yeah, the boys will be all over you," Hermione replied. "You think so?" Maxi went back to looking in the mirror. Harry and Ron wanted to take a look but Hagrid stopped them, "Oh no yeh don'." Draco also wanted to see. He sneered at the two boys and walked toward the room. His mother stepped in front of him. "Draco," she said sternly, "it is very improper to see a young lady in her dress robes before the occasion they were bought for."
Hermione and Maxi giggled. "Hey, I came back here to tell you that we were all going to head over to Flourish and Blotts to get our school books. Hagrid was going to come with us to get yours. We were thinking that we would meet you at Ollivanders to get your wand. Sound good?" Hermione asked. "Yeah, that will leave me time for tutoring." Maxi replied. "Okay, we will meet you there in about half an hour," and she walked off.
Madam Malkin took the two robes and held them up for Maxi to look at. "We also need dress robes," Maxi heard Draco's mother say. "Ummm...I have a problem. Hagrid didn't leave me any money," Maxi realized out loud. "Oh you're all set, dear. don't you worry about it." Maxi considered the two.
"Which one costs more?" she asked. "I was told not to let that be a factor in your decision," she explained. "Oh all right, that one," Maxi pointed to the blue robes. " I thought you would say that," Madam Malkin smiled. "Now just let me package these for you and you'll be all set," and she walked out of the room, Maxi followed.
Draco was also done. She was eyeing him, trying to get his attention. She hated making the first move. She caught his eye, tucked her hair behind her ear and smiled. She stopped next to him and waited for her parcels to be wrapped. She felt his gaze still on her.
They got their parcels at about the same time and walked towards the door. They got stuck in one of those very awkward moments where they are both waiting for the other to go through the door. Draco proceeded to go through the door and his mother smacked him in the back of his head, slightly messing up his slicked hair. He stepped back and rolled his eyes.
"Lady's first," he gestured towards the door. "Thanks, but I'm not exactly sure where I'm going," she smiled. He smiled back only this time it wasn't that smirk he was wearing earlier. "Where do you need to go?" he followed her out the door. "Ollivanders," she hoped she remembered correctly. "Follow me, " he said and walked off.
A/N: Ok, finally up. Sorry it took so long. I never felt like sitting down and typing it up. Please review. The next chapters my favorite but if no one reviews this chappie then I won't post the next. It's sooo funny. and still nobody has found my Tom felton quote. The next chappie should be up within a week if people review.
Also I'm probably gunna be starting at least on other HP fic and I've already started a Newsies fic so look back for those.
A/N: I'm a little disappointed. Nobody has found my Tom Felton quote. And I'm pretty sure I changed Rufio's name. It was a mistake for it to be posted as Rufio in the first place. Sorry ClouDy Skiez. I love Rufio too.
