Sorry for the long wait and for the fact that I won't have shout outs this time, my mom threw away the sheet I had with all the names on it so you'll just have to wait until next chapter! It should be up quick than this one.
"Ready?" asked Remus.
"I think so," said Paige a little uncertainly.
"Hold on, this might feel a little…strange." said Remus with a sly smirk on his face. Grabbing Paige's shoulder he apparated them to Diagon Alley.
"So this is Diagon Alley, huh?" asked Paige after she recovered from the trip.
"Yep, and our first stop is Olivander's, time to get your first wand!" said Remus with another smirk playing across his face.
The pair walked into the old store filled with shelves, boxes, and dust. They found an even older man behind the counter.
"Hello Remus, what can I do for you today, said the man behind the counter. "Who is this young lady with you?" he said as he walked to the shelf.
"Hello, so glad to see you again and this is my daughter, Paige. It's time for her first wand, what would you suggest?" asked Remus.
"Let's start with a six inch oak with centaur hair, 'ey?" said the man as he reappeared from behind the shelves.
Paige took the wand and waved it and a great wind blew the dust everywhere.
cough" I thought not." said the man.
13 wands later
"Let's try an eight inch cherry with unicorn hair, mmmm?" said the man as he disappeared behind his shelves again reappearing moments later with the wand. "Give it a try."
Paige took the wand; it was beautiful wand and seemed to fit perfectly in her hand. She moved the wand to and fro and red sparks, like a fountain, came out the end.
"I believe that is the one, what do you think?" asked the man.
"You're the expert but I have to agree," replied Remus, "we'll take it."
They left the store and walked to Florish and Bots. Remus took out the list.
"Well, you need books and this is the place to be." said Remus. After all the books were found and purchased, they went to go get Paige fitted for her new robes and other uniform items. Then they got parchment, quills and ink, and decide to stop for a break with ice cream.
"So what else is on the list?" questioned Paige.
"Nothing but I wanted to show you some of the quiddich things, you know brooms, quaffles, bludgers, and other things. Could never play the game myself, I was always the commentator since both my friends played. Oh, we have to get you an owl too, very important for communication." replied Remus.
"My own owl, cool! Can I play quddich, sounds fun from what you've told me?" asked Paige.
"No, first years can't, you have to learn to fly first, and then we'll see if you are still interested." answered Remus calmly.
After they finished their ice cream, they took all their bags and went to look at the brooms and then they went to get and owl. Paige picked out and all black owl named Bullet. Then when it was getting dark, they apparated back.
"I'm never getting used to that." said Paige.
"Why don't you go get these things packed, we leave early tomorrow so get to bed early." said Remus.
"OK, 'night dad, 'night mom!" said Paige.
Paige ran up the stairs with all the bags and Bullet. She carefully removed all the items from the bags and pet them in her dad's old trunk, fed Bullet, and changed into her pajamas. Just as she was going to turn out the light she thought to write in the journal. She quietly go tout of her bed and got her journal out from under her shirts in her dresser, crawled back in bed and began to write:
This has been amazing, I've been spending so much time with my dad and we've actually had a conversation! We went shopping today and the place Diagon Alley, was so cool, I saw so many people doing magic, got my first wand, new robes, uniform, and Bullet, my new owl. My dad also stopped at the Weasley's, the headmasters to discuss some teacher's things. Well, tomorrow is another day and I should be asleep.
She put the journal in her trunk and as she closed the lid, she heard footsteps coming up the stairs. Hurriedly she moved across her floor and scrambled into bed just as the door opened enough to let two faces see.
"I can't believe how well she has taken all this." said May
"Well, she likes it now, let's hope she still likes it when she get to Hogwarts." said Remus in reply.
"We can only hope." said May.
'What, why wouldn't I like it, I'm sure I'll make new friends and I'll be able to talk magic with other people. No more regular school for me, I want to learn magic and learn to fly, and play quiddich, and become and auror just like dad and….'
Many thoughts were racing through Paige's head and her dreams were full of what hogwarts was going to be like, what house was she going to be in, probably Griffindor, just like her father. She was going to be just like her father, except for the werewolf part.
