Chapter- 8 Diagon alley
I sat on my bed patting Hex thinking over the last week. Every morning I would get up, get dressed go down to the kitchen sit on Harry's lap and eat off his plate like I have done for breakfast ever since we have been going out. (except when Harry couldn't make it for one reason or another, or last year when I wasn't there and also when I wanted to make sure that I didn't get my clothes dirty like when I wore my sister dress.)
Then everyone would go and clean the house to make it livable. Then there was lunch, we would eat in Harry and Ron's room and talk about random things for the rest of the afternoon.
Sometimes the Cullens would come and sit and listen but no one would pay attention to them. On the day after they arrived Rosalie and Emmett came up to me.
"Hey Rose, Em?" It came out as more a question then a statement.
"Hey Bella" Rosalie said I was in shock "I'm sorry for the way I treated you in Forks and I don't blame you for what you did, you did it to protect your family and I understand that. could you forgive me for what I did to you?"
"um… Yeah Rosalie that is fine I understand where you were coming from as well" I said still shocked.
"Yeah Bella I'm sorry for leaving and I don't blame you can we be friends?" Emmett asked
"Em we were always friends" I said.
The next day Esme and Carlisle came up to me.
"Bella we are sorry for leaving you like that and we don't blame you for what you did. You were on a mission for Dumbledore and no one can say no to Dumbledore" Carlisle said.
"Can you forgive us Bella?" Esme asked.
"Of course I can" I said.
"Thank you Bella thank you" Esme said.
Then the next day it was Alice and Jasper.
"I would like to say that I don't blame you for what you did and I'm sorry for leaving. Also I'm really really really sorry for attacking you like I did" Jasper said.
"Jasper I never blamed you for attacking me, I was the stupid one that gave myself a paper cut and you were not only filling your own blood lust but also everyone else blood lust" I said.
After I said that Jasper pushed Alice forward.
"I have heard what the other people in my family have said to you but I don't agree with them, I do blame you for what you did and before I found out about all of this stuff I would have been sorry for leaving you but now I don't. However I would like to say thank you for that you just said to Jasper I have been telling him that but he wouldn't listen so thank you" Alice said then turned and walked away I just stood there, More shocked then when Rosalie said she didn't blame me. I just didn't know Alice could be so cold.
I was just thinking that it is about time for Edward to come and say his bit when there was a knock at my door.
"Come in" I called. The door opened and Harry walked in.
" Hon your Hogwarts letter just got here" he said passing it to contained two pieces of parchment:the first was the usual reminder that term started on the first of September, the next told me which books we would need for the coming year.
"Only two new ones" I stated reading the list, "the standard book of spells, grade 5, by Miranda Goshawk, and Defensive Magical Theory, By Wilbert Slinkhard".
"Guess what" Harry said.
"What Harry?" I asked.
"Hermione got prefect" he said.
"Well I knew that was going to happen, I'm to much of a trouble maker to get prefect" I said .
"Well that wasn't the guess what" Harry said.
"So what is it?, hurry up!" I said.
"Well…um…your not going to believe this" Harry said.
"What is it?" I asked.
"Well.. Ron got prefect too" Harry said.
"No way! there must have been a mistake!" I said.
"No mistake, I saw him take the badge out of his letter" Harry said.
"I feel dizzy" I said pretending to faint.
"I know I feel the same, it is so shocking" Harry said.
There was a knock at the door.
"Yes?" I called.
"Dear? I was just coming to get your letter so I could go to Diagon alley" said aunt Moll.
"Could I come with you, please!" I asked.
"I don't know.." she replied skeptically.
"Please, I could help the Cullens, I know that you have a lot to do and you don't really have time to help them, please pretty please!" I begged.
"I don't know, I don't think that it would be safe" she said.
"Please it will be safe! I will be with the Cullens, I will be safe, please it has been so long since I have been to Diagon alley pllleeeeeeaaaaasssseee!" I begged I was nearly on my knees.
"Ok ok you can go, but you have to take one other person. It can't be Harry though that definitely wouldn't be safe" she said giving in, at least I didn't have to resort to the puppy dog eyes that would just be evil on my part.
"Thank you!, thank you! I will go and ask Ebony if she wants to come with us!, thank you again!" I said jumping up and down.
I heard Harry laughing as I ran down the stairs. I found Ebony in her room.
"Hey monkey, do you want to come to Diagon alley with me, aunt Molly and the Cullens?" I asked.
"Hell yeah!, when are we leaving Tig?" Ebony asked.
"Now, so get moving!" I answered her she got up put her shoes on and followed me down to the front door were everyone was waiting to leave, just as we were about to leave Ron came running up to us as quiet as he could
"Mum, if its possible could you get me the Cleansweep?" he asked Aunt Molly.
"I'll try" she answered in a hushed tone.
"Don't worry Ronnie" I said "I will put some money towards it, we don't want our new prefect to not get want he wants" at that Ron turned as red as a tomato
"Don't you start! I'm already getting that from the twins!"he said exasperatedly.
"Really?" I said turning to Ebony "Monkey how dare you pick on the new prefect!"
"But it's sooo much fun!" she giggled.
"You know that I was talking about Fred and George..." Ron said.
"Stop it you two, we have to get going" Aunt Molly said.
"Bye Ronnie" I called as I walked out the door, we walked all the way to the leaky cauldron, I think that the Cullens have come to realize that there are too many questions that cant be answered out right, they had to be seen, so I think that they are just going with the flow because they didn't ask one question while we walked though the leaky cauldron (Eb,Aunt Molly and I saying hello to Tom the barman, while passing) and out in to the courtyard where we all only just fit. Aunt Molly started to tap the bricks with her wand I heard Emmett say "why in hell is she doing that, is she mad" but then he gasped followed by the rest of the Cullens.
"Welcome to Diagon alley" I said. secretly I have always wanted to say that, in any other circumstance I would be jumping up and down with joy but just for today she had to hide it. I think I was a bit too happy, because jasper stared to jump up and down.
"Mate the jumping up and down thing is Alice not you" Emmett stated.
"I cant help it... too.. much.. happiness" Jasper said looking at me.
" Hehe.. sorry its just been so long since I have been here" I lied, I wasn't going to tell them that saying 'Welcome to Diagon Alley' was one of my deepest desires... well... not really but you get the idea.
"Ok so Bella and Ebony will help you with everything that you need, I have a lot to do, be back here in three hours no later" Aunt Molly said "stay safe" then she was off down the road.
"Oh my god! it has been to long since I have been shopping!, lets go to and get our robe's first, I wonder if they have purple ones" Alice said excitedly.
"Alice your money wont work here and you will be getting mostly school robes we wear muggle clothes if we don't have class" I said before she ran off.
"You should see your face right now!" Ebony said laughing
"Money wont work?" Alice said, a confused expression on her face.
"We have got to go to Gringotts to change it for wizard money" I said walking towards the familiar stone building.
"What's Gringotts?" one of the Cullens asked.
"Gringotts is the wizard bank, it's the only one there is, it's run by goblins, nasty little buggers" I said.
We reached the snowy-white building that is Gringotts, standing beside its burnished bronze doors wearing a uniform of scarlet and gold was a goblin we walked up the white stone steps towards him, he had a swarthy, clever face, a pointed beard and very long fingers and feet. He bowed as they walked inside. Now they were facing a second pair of doors, silver this time, with words engraved upon them:
Enter, stranger, but take heed
Of what awaits the sin of greed,
For those who take, but do not earn,
Must pay most dearly in their turn,
So if you seek beneath our floors,
A treasure that was never yours,
Thief, you have been warned, beware
Of finding more then treasure there.
A pair of goblins bowed them through the silver doors and they were in a vast marble hall. As our group made our way to a counter I said to Ebony "it is still the same as I remember".
"What does it mean 'of finding more than treasure there' ?" Emmett asked.
"Well, there is said to be a Dragon in here somewhere and there are hexes on all the vaults that will only let goblins open them and if anyone else try's horrible thing would happen to them now let me do the talking" I answered him as we got to the counter.
"I would like to make a withdrawal from my vault" I said.
"Do you have your key?" the goblin asked I pulled out my little golden key and handed it to him, he looked at it closely then handed it back saying "everything seems to be in order".
"Also the Cullens would like to open an a vault and change same muggle money" I said I didn't listen much I just heard "here is your key and Griphook will take you down to both of your vaults"
They followed the other goblin though a door leading off the hall. There was a narrow stone passage way lit with flaming torches it sloped steeply downwards to a little railways track on the floor. Griphook whistled and two small carts came hurtling up the tracks towards them. Griphook, Alice, Jasper, My sister and I got in to the first one while Carlisle, Esme, Rosalie, Emmett and Edward got into the second one then we were off hurtling through a maze of twisting passages. When the carts stopped we all got out by a small door, I handed my key to Griphook and he unlocked the door it looked like I remember all the mounds of gold coins, the columns of silver, heaps of bronze. I heard someone gasp at the site of it all.
"I'm very rich in the wizarding world, one Galleon is the same as fifty dollars in the muggle word" I said looking over to Griphook who nodded, I put some coins in to my money bag then we went to the Cullens vault, when there were collecting some of there coins to spend I explained the currency to them
"The gold ones are Galleons, seventeen silver Sickles to a Galleon and twenty-nine bronze knuts" one wild cart-ride later we stood blinking in the sunlight outside Gringotts. Well me and Ebony did the rest of them didn't need to. First we went to 'Madam Malkin's Robes For All Occasions' then we stopped to get parchment, quills and ink. When we got to 'Flourish and Blotts' I got the books that my sisters and I needed. We stopped at 'Apothecary's' to get same stuff for potions. I stopped in 'Eeylops Owl Emporium' to get same treats for Jinx and Hex, for some weird reason Hex likes owl treats as much as Jinx does, I left the others outside for this one because I didn't wont the Cullens to terrify the owls in the shop. After that we went to 'Ollivanders' to get the Cullens' wands, a tinkling bell rang somewhere in the depths of the shop as they stepped in side, it was a tiny place with thousands of narrow boxes piled neatly right up to the ceiling.
"Good afternoon" said a soft voice.
"Good afternoon, Mr Ollivander" I said politely
"Ah! Isabella Black, Ten and a quarter inches long, swishy, made of willow. Nice wand for charm work" he said as I nodded "and Ebony Black nine inches long made of willow just like your sisters also a nice wand for charm work, it really the wand that chooses the wizard, of course, now how can I be of help to you today?" he asked.
"The Cullens here, need wands Mr Ollivander" I replied.
"Every Ollivander wand has a core of a powerful magical substance, we use unicorn hairs, phoenix tail feathers and the heartstrings of dragons. No Ollivander wand is the same, just as no two unicorns, dragons or phoenix is quite the same. And of course, you will never get such good results with another wizards wand, why don't we start with you Mr Cullen" Ollivander said pointing to Carlisle. By the time they all had there wands we had ten minutes to spare so on the way back me and Ebony got a ice cream each, Aunt Molly was waiting for us when we got back to the entrance to Diagon alley.
"Did you get everything?" everyone nodded "good" she said "well off we go you have to get all that packed for tomorrow, we have a early start we don't wont you to miss the train".
Minibee- I was thinking the other day about how many more people would review if the review button was big and red, I mean when I see a big red button I just wont to push it! What about you guys? Who's with me?
ScarletRain94: Oohhhhh *glare* Hahahah very funny...WHERE IS THE BIG RED BUTTON DAMNIT! WHERE!
Minibee backs away slowly.
