Anakin- Vader stared at Padme and Obi-wan. But why the hell did they look like they were 11? Anakin, Padme began why are you looking at me like this? And why do you look 11? Crap, crap, CRAP! Not me too. Sorry mutters Padme. I look at my surroundings and notice a sign that tells me I'm in Diagon alley wherever that is.

Hey kids says a plump woman whose nametag introduces her as . You need to stay with the group remember she says pointing to a group of to 11 year olds and some adults. Whatever mouths Obi-wan so they follow her. Now everyone please take out your letters. Anakin reached into his pocket even though he didn't expect to find anything and pulled out a letter made of thick parchment looking paper it had a crest on the seal. The crest had a golden H with a badger, serpent, lion and eagle surrounding it. But it was what was in the letter that really shocked him

Uhhhhh. Anakin c'mon muttered Padme. Shell shocked still Anakin followed her. First the Apothecary which had beetle eyes, newt tongues, Unicorn horns and a million other weird things. Next flourish and blots where we bought the course books. Then to madam Malkin's, and finally Ollivander's. The tour group crowded into the tiny shop and one by one got their wands. Padme got an oak 14 inches one with a vela hair core. Obi- wan got a 12 inch rowan wand with a phoenix feather core. Finally it was his turn. When Ollivander looked at him however he disappeared into the back room and did not come out for several minutes. When he returned he was holding a tarnished wooden box that looked like it hadn't been touched for decades if not centuries. Try this one out Mr. Skywalker. Anakin opened the old box and picked up the wand inside which was black and inlaid with emeralds. As soon as Anakin touched it warmth spread through his body and golden-green sparks shot out of the end of the wand. The wand is elder with a snow Phoenix feather and the optic nerve of a basilisk for a core and it is 11 and a half inches. How much do I need to pay you? No Mr. Skywalker free of charge – it was never mine too sell I was just keeping it for a friend.

The guide lady [Mrs. Weasley] says you can spend your remaining money on whatever you want just don't go into go into Knockturn alley and meet at Flourish & Blots in a half an hour. Obi-wan went of somewhere and Padme dragged Anakin off in the direction of the pet shop called the Magical Menagerie. Padme bought a black winged kitten with gold eyes. She immediately named the kitten Chira. Anakin who wasn't very interested in kittens wandered over to some cages by a wall. Kneeling to see what was in them he realizing they were white vipers Anakin grinned- snakes were more interesting than kittens. Who are you? Are you our master? Uh what do you mean? He speaks our language! Can't every wizard do it? No master. OK umm can I buy one of you? Yes yes. No cut in a new voice I will serve our master. A third voice sounding far more ancient and powerful spoke now. As your leader I will go with our master. Umm which carrier are you in. The bottom left. In the carrier was a white snake with indigo eyes splashes of silver on it's body. What should I call you? The snake considered for a moment and then – Shalomar. Anakin opened the carrier as a shop assistant ran over even as Shalomar slithered on to his arm. Stop, the assistant cried it's deadly! Really?, she seems pretty tame to me. 5 minutes later they left the shop leaving a very confused shop assistant in their wake.
