They entered the new wand shop with Harry trying hard to come up with intelligent questions to ask Snape to keep him talking. Padfoot whined at his side and butted him in the leg. Harry fell into Snape who caught him.

"You stupid, Mutt!" Severus growled sitting Harry down in a chair along one wall. "That was his broken leg!"

Padfoot whimpered his ears laying flat on his head.

"Padfoot is sorry, Severus." Remus said, as he watched Hermione asking Harry if he was okay. "He just wanted Harry to pay attention to him and not you."

"So the dog was jealous that Harry was paying more attention to Professor Snape?" Tonks asked. "You're not a normal dog are you?"

Everyone tensed.

"I didn't think so." Tonks smirked. "I wont ask questions if Harry doesn't want me to but I think I get it."

Rita was looking around and not paying attention too bad she would have gotten a story out of it.

"Don't be jealous, Padfoot." Hermione snapped. "Gamer has a relationship system and it says you only like Harry 1/100 while Professor Snape likes Harry 2/100. It's only natural that he'd want to get along better with a person who likes him better."

"Hermione, this relationship system must be broke." Remus butted in.

"You're only 1/100 as well!" Hermione snapped. "So don't you go talking to me about it!"

Remus was hurt but could actually see a smile playing on Severus' lips.

"There is no way, Severus could like Harry more than I do, Hermione." Remus sighed. "The system you're using is broken."

"Is it a Relationship system or a Reputation system?" Tonks asked.

"I doubt there is a difference." Hermione said, "But then again maybe if you hit 100 in the Rep system it becomes a Relationship system? I don't know. Rep system." A screen appeared in front of her. "Lets see my only 100 rank is with Harry." she pushed it. "Ah I was right, Harry you can enter a Relationship system with Dobby and Me since we both have 100 with you."

"Really?" Harry asked rubbing his leg. "Rep System." A screen shot up in front of him he pushed Hermione's name. "EH, you're right.! I just got a whole list of the kind of Relationships there are out there good and bad. "

"Sister/Brother." he and Hermione said as one pushing the corresponding button.

Hermione- 1/100

"I feel sad." Harry said. "We're at 1/100."

"I know it sucks." Hermione said, pouting.

Remus rolled his eyes.

"May I help you?" a man walked up and Harry's face began burning as he blushed. This man was so hot.

"I...I..."

"My brother needs a new wand." Hermione said, with a sweet smile. "Ollivander sold him one that was spelled so he could use it but it's limiting him too much."

"I've heard that a lot about Ollivander." The owner said.

"Have you now?" Rita was back . "If it's possible could I please get an interview with you when you're done with this young man?"

"Of course I have time." The owner replied. "Now, sir we do things differently in this shop so please bare with me." He brought out a display case full of different woods. "Now run your hand over these and tell me which one responds to you the best. If none of them do I have more."

Harry did his eyes sliding shut as his magic filled his hand. He felt a small call when he passed over the yew but the one next to him was the one for him.

"It's this one." He said, opening his eyes. "I am connected to this one."

"Interesting." The owner hummed. "I don't get many people who need Elder wands."

Harry was distracted by the owners blue eyes. Hermione sighed and hit him upside the head.

Physical Endurance- 12

Harry was annoyed and shut the screen.

"Okay, now these are Elder lengths." He held out a display of different sized woods. "See what's best for you the same way as before."

Harry did.

"Seems 12 inches is perfect for me." Harry said.

"12 inches it is." the owner nodded. "Now how about cores. I use so many different kinds over Ollivander. Lets see if we can't find you something in the first case."

The answer was no none of the cases presented to him had anything in it that responded to him.

"Well, we'll just have to go to our rare cores."

"Try snake cores." Hermione said, thinking aloud. "My brother is very good with snakes."

Harry nodded rapidly at her side.

"Very well."

He came back with a display case full of snake ingredients.

Harry moaned when he found his core and anime cried into Hermione's side as she calmed him down.

"What's the problem?" Remus demanded.

"That's Basilisk Venom it cant be a core." Severus pointed out. "Try again, Potter."

"Nothing else responded to him." Hermione said, thinking. "Basilisk Venom. In a way that does make sense." She took Harry's wand. "Sir, this may sound weird but may we seem some phoenix cores as well?"

The man quickly did as asked. Sure enough a Phoenix feather was the core.

"Just like I thought." Hermione nodded. "So Elder, 12 inches, Phoenix core and soaked in Basilisk Venom." She was still nodded. "That's going to be powerful and I'm sure very loyal."

"Indeed." the owner chuckled. "This'll take about two hours for me to finish."

"Here, Potter Pain Reliever." Snape held it out.

"Harry can't take that!" Hermione said, slapping Harry's hand away. "and you know you can't, Harry." Harry sighed.

"Why can't Harry have something that will help him, Hermione?" Remus wondered.

"He's sensitive to them." Hermione replied. "Or at least one of the ingredients in them. They knock him out for hours."

"I was not informed of this by Madam Pomfrey." Severus said.

"Harry told her first year when she made him take it. I was there." Hermione replied. "Come on lets go to lunch. Lean on me, Harry."

Harry did and they headed for a restaurant that Tonks knew about. But halfway there Harry got sidetracked.

"Hey, 'Mione, what did I get you for your birthday?" He wondered.

"A complete magical encyclopedia special first edition." Hermione said, making the adults and Grim sweat drop. "Why?"

"Because the Magical world is finally coming into the 21st century. " He pointed at a store front.

"AH! Cell phones!" Hermione squealed. "We're going in here!"

She was allowed to use the owners phone to call her parents and tell them about the new magical cell phones. They swore to send Harry the money it cost for the phone and activation fees as soon as they could. So just like that Harry bought two smart phones. He and Hermione took a picture of each other and were instantly registered in each other's phones after selecting yes they would like to register the number of the other.

"This is great!" Hermione squealed. "Now I can call my parents whenever I want."

"You should ask Viktor if he has one that way you two can call and text each other instead of just using owl mail." Harry said, in a teasing voice.

KILLER INTENT DETECTED!

Harry blinked at the screen then back to Hermione in scary mode.

"Er...I'm sorry. Please forgive me." he whined. He'd actually forgot Remus was with them. Which was of course why Hermione was in scary mode. "I just thought it would be better I mean he is a good friend of yours isn't he? I didn't mean anything by it."

"Just for that you are not getting the tickets Viktor sent me." Hermione scoffed back to normal.

"What tickets?"

"Tickets to the British/Bulgarian Qudditch match that's during our winter vacation. Plus back stage passes to meet the players of both teams."

"AH!" Harry cried, "Come on! I'll teach how to cast a Patronus Charm! and I'll...I'll spar with you everyday...I'll do extra credit work in Potions and I'll help you with your Divination's homework!"

"Good boy." Hermione said, handing over three tickets. " The fourth one is mine."

Harry was almost drooling over what was in his hands. It hadn't taken much to get her to give them to him. He put them in his inventory.

"It would be best if we did not mention the tickets to Ron." Harry said.

"I quite agree. Maybe you'll have someone to take by then." Hermione said, airily.

"Why don't you ask the person you have a crush on." Harry countered.

The Killer Intent was making the Grim and adults a little nauseous as they entered the restaurant. They all had a wonderful lunch then picked up Harry's wand, new sheath, and wand upkeep kit. Hermione also bought a wand sheath and up keep kit. Then they returned to Hogwarts via Apperation because Snape refused to take the Knight Bus again.

Harry fell into Snape's waiting arms at the gate. Hermione was green and doubled over hanging on to Remus' arm.

"I told you they've never Apperated before, Severus." Remus sighed. "and that Harry was in no condition to do so."

Severus just picked Potter up and carried him to the castle.
