Hi! Here is another installment of PURE! Hope you love it! Thanks to the reviewers!

I'm getting there, slowly. I'm doing all right. Got to love LMFAO and Flo Rida!

Azymus hurried down Diagon Alley, trying to avoid being noticed and remembered by the light shoppers, and the shop and stall keepers. As he was not looking where he was going, it was inevitable that he would eventually...

WHAM

Do just that. Run into someone.

"Oh I'm so sorry! I'm such a klutz!" The person- no a girl-he had knocked over frantically said.

"No, i'm the 'klutz'. Sorry about that. I am Azymus Caedis Sicarius Evanclear"

" I am Astoria Nerrissa Waluburga Greengrass. And, not meaning to be rude, but I thought that the Evanclear house was extinct."

" No, I am the last and lonely Evanclear alive in this world. But, It is a pleasure to meet you Miss Greengrass, but I must be going. Have you seen the opening to Knockturn alley? I seem to have lost it."

Astoria laughed at him, and replied " I have to meet my father there, so would you escort me there like a real gentleman?"

Wow. She's thirteen, yet can manipulate someone better than a hundred and fifty old man. Might as well do as she says. It might end... Badly.

" It would be an honor, Miss Greengrass."

So, the pair strolled regally towards the hidden opening to the Alley. When they entered, a tall man, with icy blue eyes, and blonde hair hurried over.

" Astoria! Where were you?"

" Father, I ran into Azymus here. He is the heir to the Evanclear family. I decided to help him reach his destination; here."

" It is a pleasure to meet you, Mr Greengrass."

" Likewise. I will see you soon it seems Mr. Evanclear- My daughter has taken a shine to you." The man, Mr. Greengrass, took a grip of his daughters arm, and

CRACK

The pair were gone.

Azymus wandered down the alley, and stopped at a relatively up market looking Inn, signposted 'El Vive'.

Might as well go in. It won't kill me... I think.

So Azymus entered, and a woman in her fifties hurried up to him.

" Do you want a room, young sir?"

" Yes, please"

" Oh! What a polite child ! What type of room would you like? 1 to 5 star."

Oh why not? I have the money to make sure I and about 10 generations down the line live at the Ritz!

"I'll take a 5 star." He said, gleeful at getting a nice room all to himself.

" Sure, that'll be 5 galleon's a week. Sara will take you up."

A slight 12 year old skipped up. She smiled at him, and then led him up the stairs to a large room that faced the main street of the Alley. She then skipped away, humming an unknown song to herself as she skipped, occasionally twirling at the end of a phrase.

She reminds me of Luna somehow...

Azymus looked around. Bathroom-check. Bed-check. Everything was clean, and good quality. The food smells from downstairs were good as well.

Looking outside, he saw that the market was only just setting up outside. Realizing due to this action that the Knockturners must live on a different timescale to those who lived in Diagon, he didn't start to go to bed, as it was ten o'clock.

" Um, do you know where I can get new clothes?"

" Sure sweetie, just along the street there's a shop called ' Lira's'. It is opposite the wand shop.

Good. Wait... WAND SHOP! I had to snap my old one so it couldn't be traced, but I can get a new one, and it'll not mean anything to the Manipulator and his minions!

He thanked the woman, who told him her name was Olivia, and he practically ran down the street to get to the wand shop. It was called 'Ion'. Nice simple name. There was a sign in a window that said ' Hiring'.

Azymus went in, and there was a gonging noise. A slight man was sitting behind the counter, reading a book. He looked up at his entrance.

" You'll be wanting a wand then"

" Yes."

The man, who introduced himself as Ion "Just Ion".

That reminds me of when Hagrid told me I was a wizard " I'm just Harry". Well now, I am just Azymus.

Ion looked at all the wands, until he whipped out a white wand.

"Ivory, thestral hair twisted with unicorn hair. Should suit you boy"

Azymus gave it a wave, and found it just as good- maybe better- than his dead one. He then asked the now reading Ion.

" I saw your note about hiring. I was wondering... Could I sign up? I have to earn money somehow, and I've got a holiday to kill."

After a pregnant pause, Ion replied

" Alright. Tomorrow. You'll be here Monday to Thursday. 3pm to 9pm. 10 galleon's a week- it is hard work. I give 20 days' holiday a year. Now, be off with ya!"

Azymus, having landed another weird occurrence that day, then strolled to the clothes shop. There, he met the one Olivia had named as Lira...

" Hey!"

" Hi?"

" What do you need?"

" I need a full outfitting of Pure blood robes and casuals. My old clothes aren't fit to be in a muggle bonfire"

That made her giggle.

"Really! This is great! We'll have you leaving here a completely different man... or boy" Azymus could hear the sniggers...

An hour later, an exhausted Azymus left the shop, after Lira had given him about five tonnes worth of clothes. He now had to get a new trunk. That was quickly taken care of, and a black model with his initials - A.C.S.E-, and a bottomless wardrobe in it. He also had shelves in it, as well as a pensive, which he planned to place security charms on, before using it to examine his memories of his betrayers.

But, for now, he walked back to the El Vive, and unpacked all his things. He then headed down the stairs, grabbed some food, and headed out again. It was only three in the morning, so the alley was still vibrant and busy. So, he wandered all over the alley, and stopped in about ten bookshops. He bought about 100 books in all, a very expensive shopping day in all. But, he needed all the titles, including ; Rituals of the Dark, Animagi Formes, Runes of the Ancients, Ancient Overlords, Curses that are your Life Lines, Vital healing, Potions for the Student, Potions Manuel 1995, Azymus's Potion Encyclopedia, Thestral riding, How to make a Portkey, Easy Illegal Apparition, and all his school books, past, present, and future, being just a small number among the vast tomes in the huge heavy duty, magic re-enforced bags.

He was dawdling up the Alley, looking at the vitality of life on what he had thought a dead street, looking in all the fantastic shop windows, when he saw purple robes at the gates. He may not have been a member of the Alley Community for long, but he knew a transgression when he saw one.

They are not supposed to come here! What if they find me? His thoughts were panicked, but he stayed calm, and joined Olivia and her lodgers and staff outside the El Vive.

A well recognizable figure limped out to talk. There were hisses and boos from the gathered magicals. From what I can see, Moody is a very unpopular person with the Dark Folk. He did kill many innocent people, who'd only married or been born to the villain.

" Have any of you scum seen Harry Potter?"

Azymus decided to retaliate

" No, peg leg, but even if we had, do you think we'd tell you?"

Moody stared at him. " Who are you, brat?"

Azymus deliberated, but upon seeing the look on Moody's face, gave in

" Azymus Caedis Sicarius Evanclear."

Moody looked shocked for a moment, but he turned round, and ordered hi men out of the Alley. Olivia hugged him, and thanked him for "removing" the man.

Azymus, now really worn out due to the weird things happening to him that day, retired to his room, and after washing in the lovely bath and changing into a new pair of blue pajamas, he read the first few chapters of his book on Dark Rituals. He was asleep by eight, when the Deep parts of the alley- like the El Vive and Ion's- closed itself off from the Outside until six that evening.

How did you like it?
