Hana A/N: This is just something me and Sammy thought of one lunch time. I write my pov.'s, and she writes hers. So it works out. This is our first joint FF, but we both have single FF's on our other accounts, feel free to read them too. (Please, pretty please, with a cherry on top! Bats eye-lashes Hint, Hint) So please Read and Review, so we know how good we are at writing together. (Pretty please, bats eye-lashes again, with a free virtual Harry, Draco, Hana, Sammy or any other character you want, Drools at the thought of a Draco to herself to do what-ever she wants with… think of the possibilities…)

Chapter 3 – The New Friendship!

Hana's Pov.

12th July – 11:00

OhMyGod, in just 15 minutes this Professor R. Hagrid is going to come and whisk me off into the great unknown. I do hope me and the other girl mentioned in the letter can be friends.

I'm STILL rushing around checking I've got everything I might need.

Books… check.

Clothes… check.

Money… check.

Mp3 player (and charger)… check.

Torch… check.

More books… check.

Some sweets… check.

Shoes… check.

Toiletries… check.

Even more books… check.

As you might have gathered by now, I like books! I do hope this school, what was it, Hogwarts? Yes that sounds right. Well I do hope that it has a decent library, these books won't last that long! I was thinking as I packed the books.

Argh! I thought, It's almost half past, they'll be here any minute.

But half past came and went. I wonder if they're caught in traffic or something.

At 11:30 there was a knocking at my front door, I ran to open it.

"'Ello, you must be 'Ana," said a very large man? What was he? He didn't look like a normal man to me.

Gods, the letter was right he really was imposing. "I presume you're Hagrid," I managed to say.

"You got tha' righ'," he said. "'Nd this is S'mantha."

A long brown haired girl stepped out from behind the giant. I had decided that that was the only thing to describe him as.

The girl, Samantha, said, "Pleased to meet you, call me Sammy"

"Good to meet you both, my bags are in my room; I'll just go and get them."

"I'll help," Sammy said.

So we went to my room, picked up all my bags, and went back to Hagrid.

"We'd betta get ya a trunk when we get to Diagon Alley, it's quite a lot ta carry, all those bags I mean." Hagrid added.

So we went out side, and I don't really know what happened. Hagrid stuck his right hand out into the road, whilst holding a battered pink umbrella. Then, mere moments later, a large, purple, triple-decker bus appeared in Lavender Close. Hagrid indicated for us to get on.

So we got on this "bus", the buses plaque said it was called "The Knight Bus". We all sat down on rickety wooden chairs, and Hagrid paid the driver in a strange currency of bronze, silver and gold coins.

I thought about my pound, pence and notes, these looked nothing like them. "Um, Hagrid?" I voiced.

"Yeah, 'Ana."

"I don't have any money like that stuff you've got."

"Neither do I," said Sammy.

"Oh we'll get ya som' when we get to Diagon Alley." Hagrid responed.

"Where?" Sammy asked.

"Diagon Alley, the best place ta get all ya wizardin' sa'plies." Was Hagrids answer.

When the bus finally stopped for us, after lots of horrible jolting whilst moving, we appeared to have stopped outside a dingy pub. It was called…

Sammy's Pov.

"...The Leaky Cauldron?" I asked, eyeing the place. Doesn't look like a magical place…Oh well.

If Hagrid herd my question/statement he didn't acknowledge it, he went strait to the front door… And nearly broke it as he squeezed through into the dingy place. As I walked in I saw loads of people in long dress-type things, and all of them looked up as we arrived.

"'ello Tom," Hagrid said, "go' som' kids 'ere to get star'ed" At that Hana looked scandalized and I wasn't too happy either.

"Ok then Hagrid, no drink for you today then!" 'Tom' said, and with that we headed out of the back door…Into a brick wall!

"Excuse me Hagrid, but what are we meant to do now?" I asked, then got a bit scared when Hagrid, once again, got out his pink umbrella.

Then he exclaimed "Wa'ch this!" and he tapped a brick with the stupid looking umbrella.

At first nothing happened but after a few seconds the bricks begun to shake and rearrange themselves into an archway. The arch was huge compared with the door and even Hagrid could fit through with no problems!

I was astounded, not only was the arch huge but through it was a big line of shops! All over the place people walked around in the silly looking dresses and looked at things you wouldn't see on just any street!

One shop was filled with big cauldrons of varying sizes, shapes and colours. Another housed loads of books, and an even weirder on was a broom shop…And it had a crowd of people looking through the windows!

"Where are we going now Hagrid?" Hana asked, looking around in awe.

"we're goin' to th' Bank, Gringotts!" He said, pointing to the right, at a huge white building. It looked like marble, and it was by far the newest looking building in the whole place.

As I passed the door I saw an inscription that said,

"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."

Wow, that is way COOL! ... What does heed mean? Was what went through my mind as I entered, but it was soon erased, as I saw the tellers in this particular bank. Hundreds of short people that had to be goblins rushing around. We went up to one of the desks and told the goblin there that we wanted to exchange our money and what we got back was just bizarre! Big round gold, silver and bronze coins!

"Th' gold 'nes," Hagrid said "are Galleons, th' silver 'nes are Sickles and th' bronze 'nes are Knuts. Th're are 29 Knuts in a Sickle and 17 Sickles in a Galleon."

"Cool" Hana and I said at the same time, making both of us look at each other and laugh.

After we got over that we where told to go to sleep in our room in the Leaky Cauldron, so that we could make a fresh start in the morning. We went and ate dinner in the café/bar downstairs. We had dragon's breath soup and bread. We entertained our selves by watching the people in the bar and noticed that they all had loads of bags and where talking about something called the Quiddich World Cup, whatever that is. Then went to our room to talk for a few hours. We talked about lot of different things but mostly we where hyper on the sweets Hana had packed. By the time we fell asleep it was 2:46 am.

But I knew one thing for sure, I had made a new friend!
