-:-
A day had pass, and now, they're at the Leaky Cauldron, trying to get rooms.
"Sorry Mr. Weasley," Tom the keeper of Leaky Cauldron said, "but we don't have any more empty rooms."
"There got to be some," Mr. Weasley said. The arguing kept on going for the next two hours. Once again, a game of thirteen happened.
"This time," Sakura said, "the last two will have to carry everybody's bag." They all nodded. So it's decided. Sakura, Syaoran, Harry, and Eriol played. "Oh…Lucky me…I got the three of spade." She placed down her three of spade and waited for Syaoran to go next.
Syaoran placed down his three of clubs, waiting for Harry to go next.
"I'll help you Harry," Kokoro said, sitting next to him.
"EY!" Syaoran shouted. "It's no fair!"
"Life is unfair my dear shison (descendant)," Kokoro said. "[Plus, he's going to win anyways.]" She placed down a five of hearts, waiting for Eriol to go.
"Pass," Eriol said, sorting his card out. Sakura placed down her seven of clubs. Then Syaoran placed down his nine of diamonds. Kokoro smirked and placed down her ace of hearts. "I can beat it," Eriol placed down his two of spades.
"Pass," Sakura and Syaoran said. Kokoro smiled and placed down her double three, double four, and double five, beating the two of spades.
"Pass," Eriol said, waving his hand. Sakura and Syaoran also pass, so Kokoro put down all her cards: nine to king.
"Congratulations Harry," Kokoro said, shaking Harry's hand, "you don't have to carry the bags." Harry smiled and watched the game. Since nobody can beat Kokoro's nine to king, Eriol placed down his four of spades. (I'm not going explain the whole thing.) At the end of the game, Sakura won, and Eriol and Syaoran had to carry everybody's bags. "Well, I'm going to help you two out," Kokoro said, placing a hand on Eriol's shoulder. "I don't want you two to get restless before school starts."
"You're too nice Kokoro," Eriol said, hugging his little sister.
"I call for a second round!" Tomoyo called. "The three losers have to pay for ice cream!" Kokoro, Hermione, Tomoyo, and Sakura played. At the end of the second game, Kokoro was laughing. Hermione, Tomoyo, and Sakura were crying. (Not really.)
"Let's play another round," Kokoro said, "all boys. The two losers have to show us around the castle. Whether they know the place or not." So this round was very long, since the argument was still going on, now with Mrs. Weasley in it too.
=30 minutes later=
Eriol and Harry was smiling, looking at Syaoran and Ron. Both sat there, grumpy. First of all Syaoran had to carry everybody's bags and now, he have to show the castle to the new students. He was cursing his life and family's grave.
"We finally got two rooms," Said Mr. Weasley. "One for the girls, which Mrs. Weasley will be supervising, and the other is for the boys, I'm supervising." They all nodded. "Let's put away our stuff and buy the equipment we need!"
=30 minutes later=
"Now," Mrs. Weasley said, "we're going to meet back here in three hours. After getting your supplies, you may wonder around for the reminder of the time and come back here. It's twelve now, so be back around three in the afternoon." They all nodded and separated.
"Where do we go first?" Sakura asked.
"Gringotts," Harry said, dragging all of them to the silver building. When they got to the building, they saw a note.
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 here.
"They must be mad then," Syaoran said, walking inside.
"Dragons, I suspected," Kokoro said. Harry just nodded. They walked up to a counter and saw a goblin.
"Excuse me," Sakura said in a soft voice. The goblin looked up and inspected them all.
"Withdrawal?" the goblin asked.
"Six withdrawal," Kokoro said, "and two trades." The goblin nodded.
"I want to withdraw from the Potter vault," Harry said handing the goblin his key. Ron stepped up and handed him the Weasley key.
"The Li's vault," Li showed the goblin (I'll call him Gobbie.) the Li's crest.
"Clow Reed's vault," Sakura said, showing Gobbie her pendant.
"Hiiragizawa's vault," Eriol said, showing Gobbie his pendant.
"The Butterfly vault," Kokoro said, showing him a butterfly pendant. Gobbie nodded and motioned them to follow him. They first arrived at Harry's vault. They all waited for Harry to take his money, while Ron was looking, no scratch that, gawking at the vault. After Harry got his stuff, they went to Ron's vault. When they got there, they barely see anything. Ron blushed a little bit and quickly took his money and rushed outside. Next they went to the Li's vault, surprisingly, it was right next to Ron's.
"What the…" Ron said. The vault was different from other vault. Instead of using keys, Syaoran put his hand of the Li's crest, while holding the crest tightly. Syaoran muttered something in Chinese. The vault opened and it was bigger than Harry's. When Syaoran walked in the vault, the vault door closed behind him. After five minutes, Syaoran emerged from the vault.
Clow Reed's and Hiiragizawa's vault were exactly next to each other, so they didn't have to move further. Eriol's and Sakura's vault is the same size as Syaoran's. When Sakura went into her vault, she saw a note to her. She picked it up and pocketed it. She then went collecting the money she needed. (Harry and Ron explained to them about the money system while playing thirteen.) When Eriol and Sakura sat in the cart, the ride was long.
"Vault 56489," Gobbie said. The vault was enchanting. All kind of butterflies were flying all over the vault. Kokoro got out of the cart and inserted her butterfly pendant into the door. The door turned into a HUGE butterfly and flew to the top with every single butterfly surrounding it. When Kokoro entered the vault, a blue and silver wall replaced the door.
"What's up with the wall?" Ron asked, gaping at the vault.
"I…don't know," Eriol said. "I've never seen this in my whole life before."
When Kokoro came out of her vault, the butterfly turned back into the door and closed. "What?" she asked as she climbed into the cart. "My vault is nothing compared to the Li's." The cart shot towards, going to the exit.
=10 minutes later=
They all emerged from Gringotts, money in pouch. Next they went to get their robes. (Okay…I'm going to forward everything until Flourish and Blotts and when they get their wands.) After they got their robes, they went to get their potions stuff and other stuff they needed.
They entered the book store, where it's empty, only to have the storekeeper along with the books. Harry stepped up to the storekeeper and handed him the list of books. "We need eight of each," Harry said. The storekeeper nodded and went in the back of the room to retrieve the books. Syaoran and Eriol were holding onto the bags of supplies, while Kokoro held onto her own.
"Like I said," Kokoro said, "I'll be nice and hold onto my supplies." When the storekeeper came back, Kokoro had to pay for them, since she's the one that bought along a lot of money. "I'll meet you guys at the wand store, I just need to get some stuff." They all nodded and departed to Ollivanders: Makers of Fine Wands, leaving Kokoro at the book store. When they all left, she went to the storekeeper and handed him another list of books. "I need all of these books."
"But…" the storekeeper said, "they're all advance!" She nodded.
"That's what I meant," she said, "I need them." The storekeeper nodded.
At Ollivanders: Makers of Fine Wands
Sakura was standing in the middle of the room, waiting for the measuring tape to stop measuring her. The others were scattered all around the shop.
"Try this Ms. Kinomoto," Mr. Ollivander said handing her a wand. "13 inches, yew, hair of a unicorn. Good for Charms." Sakura took the wand in her hand and waited. "Well, give it a wave." So Sakura did. Boxes of wands flew out of it shelf. "No…Here…Try this." Sakura took it in her hand. "12 ¼ inches, oak, hair of a wolf." Sakura gave it a wave and the vase in the store broke. "No…Try this…11 ½ inches, cherry wood, a single petal of a cherry blossom." Sakura took it and waved it. Cherry blossoms along with pink ribbons came out from the tip of her wand. "Good…Seven galleons please." Sakura handed him seven gold galleons.
Tomoyo stepped up and bowed. At that instant, Kokoro walked in. She set her bags down by the door and lingered around Eriol, talking to him in rapid French. "Ahh…Ms. Daidouji. This will be easy enough. Maple and petal of a plum blossoms. 12 inches." Tomoyo gave it a wave and plum blossoms and violet ribbons came out of the wand. "On the first try. Seven galleons." Tomoyo handed him the money and walked over to Sakura and talked to her. "Mr. Li, will you please step up." Syaoran stepped up and got measured.
"I wonder what Syao-kun will get," Sakura said. Tomoyo just shrugged.
"Try this," Mr. Ollivander said, handing Syaoran a wand. "Beechwood and fang of a wolf. 14 inches." Syaoran gave it a wave and nothing happened. Mr. Ollivander took it away from Syaoran and handed him yet another wand. "Maple and a single trickle of blood from a wolf. 15 inches." Syaoran gave it a wave and the coat hanger broke in half. "Oh no…not the one I see. Here," yet again, Syaoran hold another one. "Ebony and a single hair of a wolf. 12 ½ inches." Syaoran gave it a wave and the room lit up with light. "Yes...Seven galleons please." Syaoran handed him the money and walked over to Ron and continued his discussion of Quidditch. "Mr. Hiiragizawa, please." Eriol stepped up in front of the old man. "Ah yes…Ebony and a hair from Clow Reed. 12 inches." Eriol gave it a wave and navy blue sparks came out of the wand. "Very well…Seven galleons please." Eriol handed Mr. Ollivander the money before pushing Kokoro up. "Who are you, Miss?"
"Kokoro," Kokoro replied. Mr. Ollivander nodded.
"I got just the thing for you," Mr. Ollivander said, going all the way in the back of the room. (Bad grammar.) When he came back he said, "This once belongs to Mizu Reed." Kokoro just nodded. "Rose wood and a wing of a butterfly. 11 inches." Kokoro took it and gave it a wave. Butterflies, sparks, and navy blue and silver ribbons came out of the wand. "Very good. Seven galleons." Kokoro handed him the money when he said, "Odd…Very odd."
"What is it Mr. Ollivander?" Kokoro asked.
"I just sold six powerful wands to six…" he trailed off, not wanting to let Hermione, Harry, and Ron know. Kokoro just nodded.
"I see," Eriol said. "Have a good day Mr. Ollivander." The six transfer student bowed and walked outside. Kokoro picked up her stuff and followed them. "Where to next?"
"Eeylops Owl Emporium," Harry replied, leading them to the owl store. "You can buy owls there."
=20 minutes later=
Kokoro came out, holding a cage with a silver owl with red eyes, which she named Kage, which means shadow in Japanese. Eriol was holding a black owl with bright blue eyes, in which it goes by the name of Bachi, which is drumstick. Sakura was holding an owl that is plain white with tinge of black, and the eyes are pink and she named it Kirei, meaning pretty. Syaoran held onto an owl that's brown with green eyes, with the name of Ookami, meaning wolf. Tomoyo had an owl that is black with white on it, and purple eyes which she named it Tsubasa, meaning wing. So, all six of them had an owl. And why did Eriol name his owl a drumstick? Nobody knows what's going in his brain. (Personally, I think it's funny.)
When they put away their stuff, they had one hour left, so they all went to the ice cream store (I forgot the name of the store) and ate ice cream.
"Oh Hermione…" Kokoro said in a sing song voice, "Tomoyo…Sakura…Don't you have to pay for us?" The three nodded. "Get me a small cone of strawberry ice cream please."
"But," Hermione said, "aren't you going to take advantage of this?" Kokoro shook her head.
"I don't like to do that," Kokoro said, "but I think its fun to see the others torture you three." She smiled as she sat down. The others order whatever they want.
"So it's two strawberries, one for Kokoro and another for Harry," Sakura said, "two vanillas for Eriol and Tomoyo, one mint for Ron, and a chocolate for Syaoran." They all nodded. "Let's buy them!"
=10 minutes later=
The nine walked back to the Leaky Cauldron, waiting for Mr. and Mrs. Weasley with Ginny, Fred, and George.
Somewhere in Britain (Once again, sorry for the bloody and gory part.)
Voldemort now sitting in his chair, cutting a leg out of a dog. He licked the blood away from the dog. He then proceeded in stabbing at the dog.
"M-master," Wormtail stuttered as he bowed.
"What is it?" Voldemort asked, mouth full of blood.
"T-they're a-at t-the L-leaky C-cauldron," Wormtail stuttered. Voldemort nodded.
"Go now," Voldemort said. Wormtail, without a word, left the room. "Mizu Reed…You'll be mine once again."
Back to Leaky Cauldron
Harry yawned as they played another game of thirteen. Even though he's going back to Hogwarts in two days, there's nothing for him to do now, except watch the others play thirteen or read books. He looked over at Kokoro who's reading a book with Eriol. Tomoyo was drawing something. Kokoro had taught her how to draw when they got back from Diagon Alley. So they other four were playing thirteen, while Harry had nothing to do.
