Alex rushed into the living room. Her mother was standing there shocked, a somewhat tall skinny old lady with auburn hair that was covered by a witches hat.
"I take it you have read the letter?" The Lady asked. So she knew about the letter, so Alex decided to assume is was professor McGonagall.
"Yeah." I replied
"And you have yet to tell your family." McGonagall added.
"Yup." I said retreating to the couch.
"Well let us tell them together."
"Okay sure." I replied, I decided to just go along with anything she said.
"Well call them." She commanded
"Okay. MAX! JUSTIN! DAD!" I yelled and everyone rushed into the living room.
"What happened? Did Captain Jim Bob Sherwood break?" Justin said taking little time to breathe.
"Not everything revolves around your little doll. And this lady will explain it." I said pointing to McGonagall.
"Hello, and I am professor McGonagall. And I am happy to your announce that your daughter has been excepted to Hogwarts school of witchcraft an wizardry." She explained
My dad was the only calm one, " That would mean she is a witch?"
"Yes it is common to have muggle born witches." She answered
"What type of school is it?" Justin asked.
"Boarding School."
"Yes! We get to get rid of Alex." Max leaped up with joy.
"No, she comes home in the summer," Dad said. "Exactly how much is this boarding school going to cost?"
"Nothing." Was the only thing she said.
"Okay. So when are we going to get the supplies?" I asked.
"Right now." She answered.
"Okay," I said smiling. " I just gotta go get my jacket."
Harry Potter's P.O.V.
"And students may have if they desire a frog, cat or owl." I finished just as we turned the corner into the Leaky Cauldron.
"Come on, right this way," Hagrid said leading me through the door. When the barman tom looked up at Hagrid, Hagrid passed through and said, "Just getting Harry Potter's school supplies."
Instantly people started to crowd around me, saying stuff like, "Do you really have a scar?" or,
"Oh, I have waited my life for this moment, when I would meet the the boy who lived." I just smiled and answered back saying yes, but thinking they were really mad hatters. Hagrid ignored them and lead me over to a door and through it we were in an empty brick room. He then tapped in a rhythmical pattern on the wall and a door opened up to, yes, diagon alley.
The alley was amazing there we stores glowing bright and children surrounding store windows.
The first thing we did was head into a place called gringotts, Hagrid said it was a bank for wizards that was run by Goblins. We walked up to the main desk to find a well aged goblin with a extremely long nose, and a smug evil smile
"Hagrid, what are you up to today?" asked the Goblin
"Harry would like to get out his money, and I have some Hogwarts business, ya know." Hagrid replied.
"And does mister harry potter have his key?" The Goblin said with a large amount of snide in is voice.
"I got it right here.," he fumbled through his coat looking and then he found the right pocket and pulled out a small copper brown key. "Here it is."
We then followed a goblin to the back of the room and into a cart when then traveled through a tangled mess of tracks, so it felt like roller coaster, or what harry assumed what a roller coaster felt like since he never has been on one. Then they stopped in front of Harry's vault, Hagrid unlocked it, and reveled a mass amount of gold.
"Harry the gold ones are galleons, which are the product of one hundred sickles the silver ones, and is the product of 100 knuts, the bronze ones." Hagrid explained.
"Where did I get all this money?" I asked.
"Your parents, Harry." Hagrid answers.
"Oh." I said, then I filled up my bag with more galleons then the other two types.
After that we headed to flourish and blotts to buy Harry's books, it was an odd little shop that had to levels, the top on completely visible it was more of a deck that had books along the edges.
He was leaving the store, after buying his books, when he bumped into a girl the same age as him, she was incredibly cute, she had black hair that was wavy and stopped before her shoulders, she had dark eyes and tanned skin. She was wearing converse, and a tight yet flared jeans, held up with a brown leather belt that had imprints of butterflies and tied at the front. She had on a tight black tank top with a jean jacket. She was accompanied by an elder lady with a pointy witches hat and auburn hair that was streaked with gray.
"Hello, Professor McGonagall." Hagrid said greeting her, so she was that deputy headmistress lady who wrote the letter.
"Hello Hagrid, Harry," She greeted us politely then introduced the girl. "This is Alex, she is getting her school supplies like Harry."
She bit her lip and pulled at her jacket, "Hi."
"Hello." I said smiling.
"Well at least I know one person. Hey, Harry do you want to sit together on the train?" She asked.
"Sure." I answered.
"Good. Well I got to go, bye." Alex waved good bye then followed McGonagall.
Then we went to madam malkin's to get my robes. When we finished that I went to Apothecary and the the cauldron shop to buy my potions supplies while Hagrid went off to buy something.
We had decided to meet outside Florean Fortescue's Ice Cream Parlour, when he returned he was carrying a cage and in side was a snowy owl. "Happy Birthday Harry." Hagrid said handing me the cage.
My smile grew, it was so wide it was almost painful. I had never been given a real present, since a pair of Uncle Vernon's socks didn't count, this was wonderful. " I am going to name her Hedwig." I said smiling.
"Come one harry," Hagrid said. "It is time to get your wand." I smiled.
Once we entered Ollivander's (makers of fine wands sine 382 B.C.) . I tried out various wands, all resulting in partial destruction of some part of the store. Ollivander started to mutter, "I wonder."
"Wonder what?" I asked
He pulled out a wand, "I wonder if this wand is right for you." He handed me a wand. "11" holly and phoenix feather." I just got a hold of the wand when I felt this was the right wand.
"Perfect." I said.
" Curious." He said muttering again.
"What is curious?"
"Curious that this wand works for you when its brother gave you this scar." He said pointing to the lighting bolt scar on my forehead.
Later, me and Hagrid went to the leaky cauldron, it was deserted now except for Tom.
"Hagrid, why does everyone know who I am and Ollivander mention something about me scar in the shop."
"Well, eleven years ago a dark wizard named," paused and then grabbed a piece of paper and a pencil, "well no one but Dumbledore utters his name it is... " He picked up the paper and wrote Lord Voldemort.
"So he who must not be named well, he attacked, you and your family. Killed both of your parents then went after you, he used the killing curse on you, and well it bounced off you and hit he who must not be named and killed him, the point is no one has ever survived a killing curse, except you, you are the boy who lived."
