Mercia the Witch

Chapter 4

"Alright dear" McGonagall said and stood up next to her, "Now, this might feel weird but we must use this" She pulls out powder looking things, "It's called floo powder, although, I'm going to have to take your mother and father, so will you be alright on your own?"

"I-I don't know how to use it though…" Mercia said shyly while looking at it. McGonagall smiled.

"It's simple. Just walk in the fire place" She points to the fireplace in the living room, "And say Diagon Alley. Though, you most say it clearly and no strutting alright?" Mercia nods shyly.

"Diagon Alley right?" She asked. She saw McGonagall nod and smiles, "Alright, see you on the other side mommy, daddy, professor" She steps into the fireplace and throws the floo powder down, "Diagon Alley!" Green flames surround her and she feels like she's going hundred miles per hour. Then suddenly she falls into another fireplace and coughs before stepping out of it. She looked down at her outfit and pouts, seeing as it are dirty.

A few minutes later Professor McGonagall and her parents arrived. She smiles.

"Would you like me to clean you?" McGonagall asked chuckling. Mercia blushes slightly and nods.

"Yes please and thank you" She smiles as McGonagall holds up her wand and whispers a spell while moving her wand down in one movement. Mercia smiled as she felt the dirt get off of her. "Thanks professor!" She giggles seeing McGonagall shake her head with a smile.

"Let's go shall we?" McGonagall said before walking out, waving for them to follow.

"Where are we going Professor?" Mercia asked while walking beside her and her parents behind.

"We are going to Gringotts, it's a bank for wizards, but we are changing your money to wizard money to buy your supplies" McGonagall explained. Delos nodded his head.

"Alright…" Isabella said then smiled.

They arrived to Gringotts and walked in seeing little goblins walking around. Professor McGonagall rushed them toward the goblin ahead and talked quietly with him. He looked over at them and held out his hand, his long fingers and finger nails showing.

"Money please" He said, his voice sounding firm. Isabella stared at him surprised before handing him Two hundred dollars and taking a small step back. Mercia broke out into a grin, knowing that look on her face and leaned over to her, smiling softly, "its ok mom, he won't hurt you" She said softly, looking around and looked back up at Professor McGonagall. The goblin nodded slightly after checking the money and handing them some wizard money.

"This should be enough" He said and leaned back up to the desk, writing down on a piece of paper.

"Did Hagrid drop off anything?" Professor McGonagall asked quietly to the goblin. She looked at him and saw him give a short nod and smiles. "I see"

Mercia was looking ahead of her, at the design on the desk when she saw a person from the corner of her eye walk past her; she noticed a black robe type thing and something purple.

"Hmm?" She asked herself confused before looking up at the ceiling. After a few minutes they got her money when a goblin came running down, pushing past all of them.

"A robber! A robber!" The goblin yelled, "They didn't take anything but tried to get in fault …" He whispers the rest. Mercia looked up and looked over at her mom. Her mom shook her head and saw Professor McGonagall eyes widen.

"Really?" Professor McGonagall asked to see him nod, "Let's get out of here Mercia" She said softly, and "We still have to get all your things..." Mercia nods slowly and follows McGonagall out, her parents tailing behind them.

"So, Professor McGonagall… how do I get a…" She looks down at her list and tilts her head to the side, "A wand?"

"That's easy" McGonagall says laughing, "You go to Ollivanders" Mercia nods and follows her to an old looking building calls Ollivanders. They walk inside and stand in front of a desk.

"Who is this?" An old man asks staring at the youngest, Mercia. She blushes slightly and looked down quickly

"M-Mercia…" She mumbles.

"Mercia…hmm…" He looks at her hard before flicking his hand, having measurements float up towards her. She spread her arms as she was told to and watched them measure her.

"Hmm….a phoenix feather and…mist wood?" He asked tilting his head to the side before shrugging and handing her a wand, "Flick it" He says smiling, "Go ahead"

"A-alright…" She whispers before flicking it once, light arouse from it and started to make her hair stand up.

"Hmm…Interesting, that's the one" He says smiling, "Perfect!" She nods slightly and hands him the right amount of money before turning to her Professor and nods.

After a few hours the Bell family sat at home eating dinner.

"Well…a few more days before I leave" Mercia says sadly, hiding her tears.

"It's alright Hun" Isabella says smiling, Delos nods smiling.
