Chapter 3:

Knockturn ally

Cassy laughed as her and her friends, Cody, Shay, Dalton, and Jason sat in a garage. A 1992 Honda Civic Si sat parked next to them, it had primer on it, due to it awaiting a paint job.

"So Cas.. When do you go back to school?" Cody asked

" In September, why?"

" Do you think we'll get the paint done before you go?"

" I'm not sure, I'm waiting for the paint to come in, if its not you can do it, I trust you Code" She smiled.

"Are we going to be able to see you?" At that time an owl showed up, it flew into the open garage and landed infront of Cassy, holding it's head towards her, a letter in its beak. She took the letter from it and read over it.

"What does it say?" Cody asked.

"Why is it from an owl?"Jason asked, Jason was new, he didn't know Cassy was a witch yet.

"Umm.. well.. Code.. I don't think you'll be able to see me except the holidays. This letter is from a school called Hogwarts, it's in Scotland. Well.. It's like the school I go to now, I guess I'm transfering out there." She sighed, knowing she'd miss seeing her friends even more, being so far away.

As August 30th rolled around, Lucius woke Cassy up early. While eating breakfast she received the Hogwarts 5th year supplies list. Once they were done she got ready and they headed to Diagon Ally.

"Harry, Ron!" Mrs. Weasley yelled.
They got up and got dressed then went down to eat breakfast with everyone else. When they were finished, they collected their lists from Mrs. Weasley then headed off to Diagon Ally.

"Be back at Gringotts by 6 please," Mrs. Weasley told Harry, Ron, and Hermione.

Lucius walked out of Magical Menagerie, the pet store. He found Cassy in Flourish and Blotts. She was standing at the register paying for the stack of books she had.

"That's a lot of books." She jumped.
"God, don't scare me like that."
"sorry."
" What's the dog for?" she asked pointing to a dog in Lucius's arms.
"Oh, it's for you. I remembered Snape telling me about Mittens."
"Oh," She walked over to him and grabbed the dog.
"She's a poodle, maltese, chihuahua mix. They didn't have a full breed chihuahua."
"They had dogs there?" She asked a little confused. She knew Hogwarts didn't allow dogs.
"Well I kinda had him get it for me from the back."
"Oh, She's adorable."
"Yeah, i thought you'd like her."
"Lexi will be her name," She said as she looked into the dogs eyes.
"Nice, where do you want to go now?"
" I don't know, I need new dress robes."
"How about we go eat at Florean Fortescue's, they have good ice cream." Cassy nodded as they headed over to it.

They walked in and Cassy ordered what they wanted. When they got their ice creams they sat down at a table.

"So Hermione, what's left?"
"Nothing, we have everything, unless you guys want something else."
Harry and Hermione looked at Ron. He looked like he was in a daze.
"Ron?" Hermione said as Harry waved his hand in front of Ron's eyes.
"What?" He looked at them.
"What are you looking at?" asked Hermione.
"Nothing," He took a bite of his ice cream.
"Ron!" Harry and Hermione said in unison.
"Fine! Look over there where Lucius Malfoy is, i was looking at her," He pointed directly at Cassy. The two looked at her.

"Who is that?" Harry asked.

Ron replied, " I don't know.. she looks great tho."

"Wonder what she has to do with Malfoy," Hermione chimed in.

"Cassy," A cheery voice said. She looked up, taking her ice cream away from Lexi.
"Yes Draco?"
" Hey!" Crabbe and Goyle stood beside Draco.
"Hi," She gave Lexi some more ice cream.
"Don't feed her ice cream," Lucius said, but noticed he was being ignored.
"How's your summer?" asked Draco.
"It's good, Hey Lucius?"
"Yes?" He said, happy that he wasn't being ignored now.
"Can we go?" She gave Lexi the last of her ice cream cone.
"Sure."
"Sorry to cut you short Draco, got places to go."
"That's fine. See you September 1st?"
"yep."

Cassy stood up. She walked out of the ice cream parlor, Lucius and Lexi followed. She went into Madame Malkins Robes for all occasions. She got her some new dress robes and school robes. Once she left there she walked down the ally. The farther she walked the darker it got. Eventually she stopped in front of a store.

"Cassy, this is against school rules."
"I'm not a student yet, I haven't started so i'm not breaking any rules."
"Cassy," Lucius wined, " I don't want you expelled before you even get there."

Cassy walked into Borgin and Burkes. She wandered around looking at the different things. She spotted a book, Lucius hesitated then entered. Cassy was already on the other side of the store with a book in her hands. She was looking at some odd dark arts things that she's never seen before. Lucius took the

"Ron."
"What?" he turned around and looked at Hermione with an evil look in his eyes.
"Where are you going?"
"I'm going to find her," He headed towards Knockturn Ally.
"Ron, we can't go there," Harry said once he noticed that Ron was headed straight for it.
"Since when did you agree with Mrs. Know-it-all?" Ron asked as he stopped and spun around facing Harry and Hermione. The two just stood there and looked at Ron.
"Fine Ron, if you want to be that way then we'll leave you alone," Harry yelled at him. The two went and sat outside Gringotts to wait for Mrs. Weasley and Ginny. The Weasley twins were in Gambol and Japes, Hermione and Harry knew they'd be there all day so they weren't expecting them to come back early.

Ron continued on down Diagon Ally. He wasn't feeling sorry for what he said to Harry. He knew Harry would have gone. he wasn't paying attention to where he was going, which caused him to run into Cassy.

Cassy barged out of Borgin and burkes. Lucius had taken the book she wanted and told her she couldn't have it. She pushed out the door and ran into Ron, knocking him to the ground.

"Oh I'm sorry,"She turned around and reached for Ron's hand, "Here let me help you up."
"Thanks," Ron said once she got him up.
"Well if it isn't the weasel. Where's Mudblood and Potty?" Draco asked as he walked up behind Cassy, "Oh weasel, If i were you I'd leave Mrs. Cope here alone."
Cassy glared at Draco," I can associate with who ever I want to, Come on," Cassy grabbed Ron's hand.
"Cassy!"Draco Yelled.
"I'll talk to you some other time."

Cassy and Ron walked back to Diagon Ally. They talked the whole way and got to know eachother some.

"There's my mum." Ron said.
"Oh, well I'll see you on the train?" Cassy asked as the two stopped infront of Gringotts.
"Yeah. Bye." Ron said. He left with The rest. Cassy met up with Lucius in the Leaky Cauldron.
