Chapter 4: Diagon Alley

After they entered the living room Dumbledore said "well are you ready to go."

Isildur looked at him and said "go where and how?"

"To Diagon Alley of course and we will go by floo powder," Dumbledore said.

He then went over to the fire place and lit a fire with his wand. Then he took out a bag of floo powder from his robes. He told Isildur to take some throw it into the fire and say very clearly where he wished to go.

Isildur threw the floo powder into the fire and stepped into it. He stood there for a few seconds amazed that he wasn't being burned then he said "Diagon Alley" and he felt himself spinning in circles and rushing past many different fireplaces.

Then he stopped and got out of the fireplace. He was in some kind of shop that looked oddly like the one Harry had ended up in, Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets. He realised he must be in Borgin and Burkes, and he really didn't like the look of it he was about to leave when he saw two figures coming to the door of the shop. He quickly went to hide in the cupboard near by. He thought as he was standing in it, that this was probably the same cupboard that Harry hid in. The two people who entered the shop were none other then Lucius and his son Draco Malfoy. Isildur wondered what they were doing in here. Then it occurred to him that they were probably selling some dark objects. Lucius handed Mr. Borgin a list and asked him to come by the manner on the weekend to look over the items, then he and Draco left. After that Mr. Borgin left the room, Isildur climbed out of the cupboard and walked out the door. He looked around the street he was on it was fairly dimly lit and there were all kind of wired shops. He realised he must be in Knockturn Alley.

He looked around for an exit when Dumbledore come up to him and said "it looks like you took a wrong turn, when I didn't see you in The Leaky Caldron I realised that you might have come out of the wrong fireplace. So I came here."

Isildur thanked him very much and the two of them walked out of Knockturn Alley onto the streets of Diagon Alley. First they went to Gringots so that Isildur could change his muggle money so he could by a few things well he was in the wizrding world. They entered through the giant bronze doors and then the silver doors with

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 there.

Engraved on them. They also went to a vault that Dumbledore said that 3 of the four founders of Hogwarts (they were of course Helga Hufflepuff, Rowena Ravencalw and Godric Gryffindor. Salazar Slytherin of course contributed nothing as they all knew that Eledil's heir would be muggle born) had started it as it was know that at sometime the heir of Elendil would be summoned.

After that they went to Olivander: Makers of Fine Wands since 382 BC, to of course by a wand for Isildur. When Isildur went in Mr. Olivander came over and took his measurements exactly as he did in Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone. Then he started handing Isildur wands, after about half an hour he said "a very tricky customer, oh yes I have had many of those" Then he looked at Isildur sword and said "May I see that for a moment", Isildur looked at him for a second and thought why does he want to see it, then he decided to hand it to him.

Mr. Olivander looked at it and said "Curious... Curious..."

Then he turned to Dumbledore and said "You know how you gave me three of Fawkes fathers for wands."

Dumbledore looked at him and said "Yes, but you only told me what happened to two of them. What happened to the third?"

"Well that's an interesting story," said Mr. Olivander. "I did make a wand with it but it went unsold for along time and I forgot where it was until the young Mr. Potter came in to get his. After I sold him his I searched the shop for the third but a lass found it nowhere in the shop."

Then he looked back at the sword he held in his hand and gave it a wave in the air like a wand and red sparks shot out of it. Isildur looked at him amazed and said "How'd you do that?"

Mr. Olivander replied to him "This swords handle is the missing wand. This is indeed very strange for the only people I can think of that could have done this have been long gone from the earth."

Isildur looked at him extremely puzzled and asked "who could have done this Mr. Olivander?"

Olivander told Isildur to give it a wave as he did. So he did then something rather odd happened, that none of them could explain a blue light shone around the sword and a rolled up piece of parchment appeared from the tip. The parchment was a note to Isildur, which he read out loud.

Dear Isildur, You may find this very hard to believe but the sword you hold in your hand is the one and only Narsil. The sword that Isildur used to cut the ring from the hand of Sauron (in the seconded age of middle earth). The sword that Aragorn son of Arathorn carried with him into battle against the dark forces of Sauron and Saruman. This sword has been remade just for you, as Olivander has just told you it conations a wand that was taken from his shop, I apologize for taking it but he knows my intentions were only good. Also this sword bears the protection that Glammdring and its mate Orcrist have (it will glow blue, just as you saw it do before this note appeared, when orcs are near.)
This is your fate and your destiny.
Eternally
Elrond Halfelven

All three of them were stunned by all that had just happened.

Dumbledore then broke the silence and said "I think we need to get going as we need to get more school supplies for Isildur here before moving on to Hogwarts. The rest of there time in Diagon Alley was fairly uneventful. They went into Madam Malkin's Robes for All Occasions to by Isildur school robes as well as some dress robes for him too. Then they went to Flourish and Blots where they got all his bocks for potions, transfiguration, defense against the dark arts (minus the Lockhart books), divination, care of magical creatures, and herbology. Isildur had of course decided to take care of magical creatures and divination as he thought they sounded the most fun from what he had read in the books. After that they went into The Leaky Caldron to use the fire place to get to Hogwarts.
They stepped into the fire together and said "Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry"
