Chapter two
Eli and I finished up in Sues land and headed towards Harry Potter world.
"I'm so excited!" she said as Hogwarts view came closer to us. I laughed at her. "I'm excited for the butter beer."
When approached the entrance to Harry Potter she stopped. I gave her a weird look. "What are you doing? You have waited for this the whole time we have been here! Remember the best for last?"
"I'm nervous."
I laughed at her. "Oh, come on!" I took her hand and pulled her along.
After we explored the shops and rode the Hogwarts ride, we decided to sit and break over a nice cup of butter beer. "This day has been fantastic." I mumbled over my delicious drink.
"Mmm, yes, I do agree with you one hundred percent."
"I think after this we should have the Ollivander experience." I smiled.
"Oh yes." She nodded with a devilish smile.
We finished up our last sips of our butter beer and raced over to the wand shop. "Thank goodness the line isn't too long." We both said at the same time. We laughed.
About twenty minutes passed and we entered the wand shop. We stood in the front by the stair case and waited for the show to begin. As we waited I became nervous.
"Destiny, are you alright?" asked Eli.
"Yeah, just a bit nervous for some reason."
"And you made fun of me in the beginning." She teased.
The door shut and everyone suddenly silenced down to a hushed tone. A man appeared before us at the top of the steps.
"Welcome to my wand shop." Said the man is a sweet, husky tone. "I hope you're ready for a wild experience." He slowly began to walk down the steps, as he did this he scanned the audience. His eyes stopped at me. "You there, before me, it's time for you to begin your wizard training. Come with me to choose your wand."
The palm of my hands began to sweat and I started to feel sick. Images of bright light streaks began to shoot by. A woman's scream filled the air. "M-me?" I stuttered pointing at myself.
"Yes dear. You. What is your name?"
By this time he was right in front of me. "Destiny." I said in a whisper.
"Well my child, come with me."
I looked at Eli; she pushed me up to the front to choose my wand.
He walked up to the wand case and scanned the boxes. "Let's see, ahh. Here we go. Try this one." He opened the box and I took the wand out gently.
Wind whipped around the room and swirled around the people. The papers on the counter in front of me flew off into the audience. Everyone giggled. "That one isn't for you." He teased. I gave it back and he chose another one. When I took this one and nothing happened. "That's a better sign." "He smiled. Point it up at that pot of flowers." I did as he said. The flowers slumped over and died. "That's not it either." He scanned the shelf one last time and handed me another wand. "Here, try this." When I got full grasp of the wand, wind whipped around me, the room lit up in an explosion of bright colors. It became brighter and brighter. I closed my eyes and shielded them. All of a sudden the room was dead silent. I opened my eyes. A different man appeared before me. I looked back and the room was empty.
"I have been waiting for you to arrive."
