A/N: ~I solemnly swear that I and up to no good.~
The years passed by without incident, and Harry and Draco lived nice lives, but not spoiled brat lives. Harry soon became adopted by the Malfoys, something he liked very much. He read every book on wizards he could get his hands on, and found he could do Occlumency very well. Soon, Harry and Draco were eleven, and received their Hogwarts letters.
"Well boys, it's time to go to Diagon Alley. Get dressed and we'll leave immediately," Narcissa said.
"Okay," Harry and Draco said together, and then ran up their room to get dressed.
While they were upstairs, Narcissa said to her husband, "I don't think this is good for them. We know for a fact Dumbledore is trying to take over the world, and he might use Harry for that. We know it was Dumbledore instead of Voldemort who killed his parents. We've told the boys countless times, but they still want to go. Are you sure we should let them?"
"Yes I'm sure honey. This will be good for them," Lucius replied.
"All right, but I don't have to like it."
Lucius chuckled. "Of course you don't, my dear."
At that point, the boys came thundering down the stairs.
"Okay, we're ready to go now!" Harry exclaimed.
"We are going to apparate, so hold on to my arms tightly," Narcissa said.
Harry, who had heard of apparating, had never done it before and he was excited. He gripped his mother's arm tightly, and soon felt like he was being squeezed through a tight rubber tube, and he couldn't breathe. Seconds later, he was still standing, but gasping for breath.
"That... is the... weirdest…... way to travel...," Harry gasped.
"Oh, you get used to the sensation after awhile," Lucius said.
The first shop they headed to was Madame Malkins for wizard robes, then Flourish and Blotts where they met Muggle-born Hermione Granger.
"Hello. What's your name?" Harry asked the bushy-brown-haired girl.
"I'm Hermione Granger. What are your names?" Hermione asked.
"I'm Harry Potter and this is my brother Draco Malfoy. They adopted me," Harry replied.
"You're actually Harry Potter?" Hermione asked.
"I just said that, didn't I?"
"Well, yes, but-"
"You wanted to be sure."
"Yeah, Sorry" Hermione said and blushed.
"It's all right, even my brother couldn't believe it when I told him."
"It's true," Draco put in.
Hermione giggled.
"So, are you going to Hogwarts too?" Draco asked.
"Yep. I can't wait to start learning magic!" Hermione exclaimed.
"What all have you gotten yet?" Harry asked.
"I've gotten robes robes, and then a few minutes earlier I came in here for books," Hermione explained.
"In that case, let's get the rest of our shopping done together. Does that sound all right Hermione?" Harry asked.
"I'd have to ask my parents but that sounds just fine to me," Hermione said. She asked her parents, and she could go around Diagon Alley with Draco and Harry. Soon, they got everything except their wands. They walked into Ollivander's, only to find it empty.
"Hello? Is anyone there?" Harry called out. Ollivander appeared out of nowhere behind the counter.
"Is everybody ready to find out which wand belongs to them?" Ollivander asked.
"Yeah," the three kids replied.
"Let's get started then," Ollivander said.
Draco took about 5 minutes to get chosen.
"Hawthorne and unicorn hair, flexible, good for Transfiguration," Ollivander stated.
Hermione took about 20 minutes to get chosen.
"Oak and dragon heartstring, pliable, excellent for Charms," Ollivander said.
Harry took twice as long as Hermione. Finally, after exploding many things in the shop, a wand chose Harry.
"Willow and phoenix feather, supple, good for Charms as well. What is interesting is that the phoenix whose feather resides in your wand, resides in two others as well. One of it's brothers gave you that scar. Albus Dumbledore's wand and Tom Riddle's-"
"You mean Voldemort?" Harry interrupted Ollivander.
Ollivander cringed slightly. "Yes, his wand. As I was saying, the phoenix gave three feather, and those feathers reside in your wand, Albus Dumbledore's wand and Tom Riddle's wand."
"Huh. Interesting," Harry said.
When they left the shop, Harry and Hermione's parents were waiting outside.
"I believe it is time to get owls and go to the ice cream shop," Narcissa said.
They went to Eyelop's Owl Emporium where Draco got an eagle owl and Hermione got a black owl. Harry, however, was attracted to a snowy white owl.
"Don't bother with that one. She always tries to bite the fingers off anyone who tries to buy her," the owner of the store said to Harry.
"You wouldn't do that to me, would you girl?" Harry whispered to the owl.
Instead of hearing a hoot like he expected, Harry was surprised to hear the owl speak to him.
"Of course not. I can sense that you are my human. I will not bite anyone else I'm unless told to do so Harry," the owl said.
"Did anyone else hear this owl speak just now?" Harry asked the group.
Everyone was silent.
