Harry was slightly put off but rallied at his suggestion of contact when they got there, and beginning to pull out the floorboards. Once Orval saw what was under any shock vanished as he saw all of his school equipment.
"Why on Earth would you keep your Wizardry stuff under the floorboards?" he asked.
"Oh I have to hide it down here or else my Uncle and Aunt will confiscate it" he explained casually.
"Oh, why" Orval asked, whilst beginning to frown. "Why don't they let have your school books" as Harry started to drag out his suitcase.
"They've never let me have anything to do with wizards, they have a very medieval attitude towards magic" he replied. Orval sighed, it was not something he understood but prejudice was expected.
It was time to move the conversation to less awkward territory "well is that everything?"
"yes" Harry answered slamming trunk down, and picking up a broomstick. Which reminded Orval about travel, he had apparited here of course but how was he supposed to get to the Leaky Cauldron. He wasn't trained in side along apparition.
"M.A.C", he whispered "how do I get to the leaky Cauldron?" a touch of panic in his voice.
"It's not a problem sir, our records indicate that the knight bus is operating at this moment in time, all you need to do is point your wand up in the middle of the street" M.A.C replied, the tone was by its nature monotone but Orval felt it was not telling him something. He ignored this feeling and offered to carry Harry's broomstick, he refused and instead gave him his suitcase.
After carrying the suitcase down the creaky staircase in the hall. He began rolling it outside, Mr Dursley had already left to apparently pick up his sister without saying goodbye. Sensing that neither the enthusiastic Harry nor the rest of the Dursleys had any reason to say goodbye to one another so he left immediately.
Out of sight of Harry he began to use one of the biomec's many advantages in its ability to grow any organic object at any time including the ingredients required for a wand, and in any shape for that matter. So his biomec's index finger, starting to grow and change as a unicorn hair extended through the middle and wood grew to gracefully encircle it. The final product was no masterpiece or even shelve worthy, but it worked and that was all that was required. Seeing as the suit felt no pain, he simply snapped of the wand and regrew the finger.
Turning to face Harry he said "We'll be taking the night bus".
"What's that" he asked.
"No idea" Orval admitted about to raise his makeshift wand when he noticed a large dog in a bush. From what he could make out it was starved and savage, with eyes of hate, though showing a caring side behind them. Some would have tried to help it, but Orval was both too heartless and behind schedule to do help it, turning away he raised his wand.
"BANG" a massive triple story bus appeared from nowhere, throwing Harry of his feet and taking Orval aback rushing to help Harry up. He heard a small voice behind him.
"Welcome to the Knight Bus, emergency transport for the stranded witch or wizard
