Fate
Chapter 2
It was twelve hours later when the plane finally landed in London and it was about 5am, London time. (AN: k I don't know how long it takes or if the time changes are right so I guessed hee hee)
Lily yawned and stumbled out of the plane.
Jake and Lily had slept tried to sleep but they had been too excited, so they were exhausted.
They went with Remus to get their baggage and Lily got Remus to help her with one of her suitcases, (he got to carry the 'lighter one')
Lily just laughed at him, and picked up the other suitcase as if it was as light as a feather.
Remus gave her a look as if she was crazy.
"How on earth do you lift THAT?" he asked as he put a charm on the suitcase he was carrying so it WOULD be as light as a feather.
Lily laughed as they wheeled their suitcases to the front entrance.
"Well unlike you Remus, we never had spells that would lighten out load, so we managed without it." Lily said simply.
Jake smiled as well.
"Also Lily is really athletic so she has very strong muscles."
Lily turned a slight pink and punched Jakes playfully.
"Jake! You're embarrasing me! And I'm not that strong..."
Jake didn't protest but smiled at her shyness.
By then they had reached the front entrance.
"Umm Remus? How are we getting to Diagon Alley?"
Remus just smiled.
Lily clued in and squealed in excitement, and Lily and Jake watched as Remus raised his wand hand and waved down the Knight Bus.
Lily giggled as she saw Stan Shuntike (remember in 3rd book) come out and do the usual speech.
"Welcome to the Knight Bus! The emergency trasportation for the stranded witch or Wizard, just stick out your wand hand, step on board and we can take you anywhere you want to go. My name is Stan Shuntike, and I will be your conductor this morning." (AN: that is a direct quote from "Harry Potter and The Prisoner of Azkaban" And I know they already took the knight bus but the one in the first chapter was a different one even though the Knight Bus can take you anywhere lets say it was too long of a distance)
Jake and Lily smiled at each other as Stan loaded their stuff on to the Knight Bus and sat down on one of the bed and held on tight as they flew past building, people and cars until they reached the Leaky Cauldron.
Lily and Jake gasped, they had always imagined going here, and now it was finally happening.
They followed Remus inside and waited as Remus talked to Tom (the innkeeper), and set up their sleeping arrangements for the night.
Tom showed them to their rooms and Remus told them goodnight and then retired to his room and Lily and James decided to do the same.
! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
"Lily, Lily it's time to wake up."
The next morning Lily woke up someone gently shaking her shoulder.
Lily moaned and turned over.
"Come on Papa five more minutes. Please..." she mumbled.
Jake chuckled, "Lily it's time to go to Diagon Alley to get our school supplies, remember?"
Then suddenly Lily jumped out of bed really fast, recalling where she was and earned herself a head rush, and would have lost her balance and fallen had it not been for Jake wrapping an arm around her waist and steadying her.
"Thanks Jake. Now get out! I want to get dress and get going."
Jake smiled and as he headed to the door said-
"Aww can't I stay?"
Lily just smiled and threw a pillow at the door, which Jake had quickly closed to avoid the flying pillow.
! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
They all met downstair ten minutes later and had a quick breakfast before heading to Diagon Alley, Lily and Jake knew this was going to be a day neither of them would forget.
The first place they went to was to get their wands.
They stepped into the quiet store and both Lily and Jake looked around for Mr. Ollivander, knowing at one point he would pop out of nowhere and he did.
Mr. Ollivander smiled at them.
"Ahhh, Mr. Lupin nice to see you again. What can I do for you."
Remus smiled at the wand maker.
"Lily and Jake have come to get their wands."
Mr. Ollivander looked at them suspiciously, wondering why they hadn't got a wand earlier but he didn't question them. At a time where so many things were happening at one with You-Know-Who back to power you didn't question anything anymore.
Mr. Ollivander turned to Lily and Jake.
"Well then, who would like to go first?"
Lily and Jake glanced at eachother.
There was a moments pause and then—
"I'll go." Said Jake
Jake stepped up to Mr. Ollivander and watched as the measuring tape took pointless measurement and Mr. Ollivander began taking boxes off of the many shelves.
Then after the measuring tape had finished it's measuring Mr. Ollivander began handing him different wands to try.
It had been after ten wands that jake had found his.
"Ten and a half inches, oak, unicorn hair, very good for dueling." (A.N- okay I forget how he said what the wand did so don't hurt me!)
Jake smiled at his wand, put it back in the box and paid for it.
Then it was Lily's turn.
She stepped up nervously and as the tape measure began to make the pointless measurements, Lily began to figit with her hands.
She always did when she was nevous.
Then after the measuring, Mr. Ollivander began to hand her different wands to try.
It took Lily a couple more tries than Jake to find her wand but she did.
Her wand was nine and a half inches, cedar, with a pheonix feather, and was swishy, Mr. Ollivander had said, very handy when it came to doing charms and transfiguration.
Lily also paid for her wand and thanked the wand maker.
After being in the wand shop for about an hour they left to get the rest of their supplies.
! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
Five hours later Lily, Jake and Remus fell onto some chairs outside of the ice cream parlour.
They had finished all of their shopping and now they were exhausted from carrying around all those bags and before they returned to The Leaky Cauldron, Lily and Jake wanted to look at the owls at The Magical Menagerie. (A.N—I think that's how you spell it)
Remus smiled at the two teenagers, he had enjoyed shopping with them.
Just watching the smiles and looks of awe as that had entered each store amused him.
"Would you two like an Ice Cream? My treat." He asked.
They both nodded, too tired to answer him.
When they told him what they wanted he went and ordered them.
He soon returned with a Strawberry-Bananna for Lily, a Cookie-Dough for Jake and some weird looking green one for himself.
Jake and Lily didn't ask and started on their ice creams.
"So are we going to be at Hogwarts early?" Lily asked.
Remus nodded.
"Dumbledore's never had transfer students before and he wanted you two to be there early so you could get to know your way around a little bit, before you start your classes."
Suddenly Lily paled.
Jake saw this a frowned.
"Lily, what's wrong?"
"I just realized, how are we going to catch up on the five years that we've missed?"
Remus pondered for a moment before answering.
"Apparently, you know all that you've missed."
Jake looked from Lily to Remus.
"But how?"
Lily snapped her fingers, she always did that when she figured something out.
"I know! Remus, ask Jake or me a really hard 5th year question."
Remus nodded and began asking them questions from each of the subjects, and Lily and Jake found themselves knowing the answers and never getting one question wrong either.
Then Remus asked one last question.
"Recite the encatation for a Protean Charm."
The both paused for a moment and then answered.
Remus stared at them dumbstruck.
Jake and Lily glanced at each other then turned to Remus.
"Did we answer the question correctly?" Lily asked.
Remus shook his head.
"Then what is the problem?" asked Jake.
"Well, you see, that spell, the Protean Charm?" Remus said.
They both nodded.
Remus took a deep breath.
"Well that was a NEWT standard charm."
Lily and Jake felt their mouths fall open.
"What?" The both said.
Remus just nodded.
"We'll have to talk to Dumbledore about this when we get to Hogwarts tomorrow."
Lily nodded and then remembered.
"Oh yes! Speaking of Hogwarts, do you want to go look at the owls now that we're done our ice cream."
Jake and Remus nodded.
They gathered their stuff and headed towards The Magical Menagerie.
! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
Half an hour later Jake, Remus and Lily were heading back to The Leaky Cauldron with their new pets.
Jake a bought a barn owl that look quite remarkable the way it sat on it's perch and had fallen for it.
Lily had accually gotten two pets: an owl and a cat.
Hermy, her owl was snowy white and reminded her of Hegwid, Harry Potter's owl. (She had always wanted an owl like Hedwig)
Midnight, was a small black kitten who was only a couple weeks old and fit in the palm of her hand. She had bought her a little bed and a toy as well. (Remus was helping her carry some of her stuff.
The walked back into The Leaky Cauldron and went to their separate room to pack for the next day.
! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
At around eight o'clock Jake came into Lily's room to tell her they were going down for a late dinner, but didn't see her.
He panicked for a moment and then smiled as he saw that she had fallen asleep on her bed and saw that Midnight had cuddled up to her, sleeping as well.
He looked around the room and saw that she had finished packing all her things. (how she managed to fit all her school supplies in the rest of her stuff was beyond Jake)
She had also changed into her PJ's and must have laid down to rest for a but had dosed off.
He went over to bed and picked up her 'blankie' which she never went places without it and covered her with it so she wouldn't get cold.
He kissed her forhead and then quietly left the room.
