Disclaimer: I am working on saving for a ticket to go see J.K. Rowling, and ask her if I could have the Harry Potter Characters. Until then, I do not own the Harry Potter Characters. I only own the idea you see written on this page. I also own my two characters Kiyoko Iris Emelina and Darious Kenrick Kuppler.

That Stupid OwlI lay in my bed, trying to fall back asleep, but the bright light outside my muggle home window would not let me. I looked at the clock; I smiled and then got out of bed. It was already ten thirty that made me happy; it had been a while since I had slept that late. Usually my foster mom, Kira, was good at waking me up at six or seven in the morning. I wonder why she let me sleep in today.
I walked over to my closet and picked out some clothing for the day. It was nothing to special, a blue shirt with a v-cut, and a long skirt, with some sparkles on it. I liked that skirt a lot. When I spun around in it there would be a nice bell shape formed. I also put on my mothers necklace, a Gryffindor Lion charm hanging from a white gold chain. I slipped on my blue flip-flops, and walked over to my vanity. I applied my usual amount of makeup, a medium thickness of black eyeliner, a shade of eye-shadow to bring out the colors of my eyes, a soft blush, and a clear lip gloss.
After exiting my room I headed downstairs to get breakfast, well brunch now. I entered the kitchen the television was on, the last bit of the morning news was on. I wasn't really paying attention to what they had to say. I never really did unless I heard something about the magic world. Though most people didn't believe anything they say on the news. They really should, it affects them more then they would ever believe. Anyways, I made my brunch, over-easy egg on whole-wheat toast, with some salt and pepper. That always hit the spot when I was hungry in the morning. I went to sit down at the kitchen table when I nearly dropped my brunch. An owl was sitting on the table, holding a letter. That stupid owl almost made me lose my brunch. I sat down and untied the letter, and fed the owl and let it go outside. I then ate my brunch and read the letter.
It was just letting me know that I needed for the fifth year. This was a perfect timing; I was planning to meet Hermione and Darious up at Diagon Alley a little later on today. Hermione and Darious had been dating since about the end of third year. They made a cute couple and such opposites it was wonderful. It seemed as though nothing would break them apart. Except for maybe Ron, he was very jealous of Darious. Ron would sulk a lot, so we tried to avoid having him around Darious.
"Mom, I'm taking off to Diagon Alley, I will be back later on tonight alright?" I shouted upstairs.
"Sure Kiyoko, be safe." She yelled back down to me.
My foster father, Jack, was off at work so I took off to the Leaky Cauldron. That was the only way I was able to get to Diagon Alley with out floo. I went into the back of the Leaky Cauldron and entered Diagon Alley. It had been a year since I was here last. Nothing really changed except the people and maybe some of the stock too.
I walked to Three BroomSticks where I was supposed to meet Darious and Hermione. I didn't see them inside so I sat outside waiting. About five minutes later, they showed up.
"Hey guys," I said waving them over to the table, "Where have you been?"
"Sorry, the floo network sent us to the wrong fireplace so it took a bit to get back here." Darious said while pulling a chair out for Hermione and let her sit down. He sat between the two of us, closer to her though.
"That's alright, we have all day, and I slept late anyways. I don't even think I remembered to do my hair."
"It still looks lovely Kiyo" Hermione said and smiled.
"Should we do our shopping first, then stop back for something to eat?"
"Sounds good," the two said in unison.
We left and walked around; our first stop was to get new robes. We would come back at the end of the day and pick them up. I swear that woman measuring me was on some drug she was crazy. I don't know but that's just what I thought. Our next stop of the day was to stock up on our potion ingredients. I made sure to get extras of everything, because I know I was going to end up blowing something up.
"What else do we need?" I asked as we left the shop.
"Books, lots of books," Darious said groaning.
"Darious, books aren't that bad. Come on, let's get them before the rush shows up," Hermione said and then we entered Flourish and Blots. I immediately hid myself. He was there, and I didn't want to be seen. So I went to the back of the store and looked at the random books. That is until Hermione came back to tell me the coast was clear. Then I went back and got my books.
"What was that all about Kiyo?"
"Nothing Darious. I just wanted to get to the back of the store to see if a book I was looking for was in."
"Was it?"
"No" I said simply, he had to of known something else was up but didn't press the situation any farther. I was very thankful of that too. I didn't want to tell Darious the real reason. The only person who did was Hermione and she was sworn to secrecy.
After that, we went back to the Three BroomSticks for a Butterbeer. When we got there, there was a bit of a crowd, so we decided just to skip that and get food elsewhere. After getting some lunch around two in the afternoon, I left to head back home. I said my goodbyes to Darious and Hermione. It had most defiantly been a wonderful day.
Before getting home, I decided to check out a few shops on my own. I didn't want to bore the others. I had some money left over and I really didn't want to go back to Gringotts so the first place I went was Quality Quidditch Supplies. I needed to get a cleaning kit for my Nimbus 2001. I entered the shop and was in aw at all the different things they had there. It had been about two or three years since I was in here last. My next stop was Eeylops Owl Emporium. I needed some food for my owl Yun. Yun is a small screech owl, a dark grey color. After all my extra stops I went home for the night.
