Hi guys I don't own Harry Potter just my Oc.
Chapter 2
Third person p.o.v.
The next morning came by as Ellie and her father got her packed, they waited for Snape to arrive.
"You have everything right? Here Ellie I've packed you a lunch In Case if you get hungry and when you get to the bank use this key." Her father said giving her a key "This was your mothers key I know she left us some money I haven't touched it so use it to pay for anything you need for school or for food or any emergencies okay?"
" Okay dad." Ellie said putting the key in her pocket of her jeans as she looked at him, he held a blue backpack.
" Ellie before your mother died in the storm she bought this for you." he said
" She bought this? But why? I was really little to even go to school." Ellie said
"Well yes, but she wanted to get you something that she knew that you would use it on your first day of school. Something that's different that other people won't have." he said
"It is different dad...it's pretty I love the blue color. Oh! I can either wear it as a side bag or a backpack that's convenient! Mom had real good taste!" Ellie said as she tried on the backpack. She looked in the mirror " I love it! I promise to keep it with me always. "
They heard a knock on the door, Ellie held the suitcase as her father opened the door.
" Mr. Snape Ellie is ready to go. Don't forget your promise to me, Look after her until school starts." he said not feeling intimidated by the Wizard.
" I will look after her. Come Lil- Ellie " Snape said as she noticed that he almost called her a different name. But she didn't care she was excited to go, she hugged her dad goodbye.
They started to walk outside her house.
" So how do we get there Mr. Snape?" Ellie asked him
"We either apparate or use the floo" Snape said
' I don't know what either does...I have a lot to learn.' Ellie thought
"It'll be quicker if we apparate there." Snape said "Grab my hand you might feel a little dizzy that's normal."
Ellie took a hold of his hand as she had her suitcase in the other hand, she felt as it was rushed and a bright flash as she closed her eyes once she opened them she was surprised and amazed that they were in a different place so fast. They were in London.
"Are you okay?" He asked
"It's like you said I'm little dizzy but I'm fine. " Ellie said as she smiled brightly looking at the streets in London.
"First we'll stop by the leaky cauldron to rent a room for you there." Snape said "Then we'll go to gringotts to make a withdrawal. "
" Gringotts?" Ellie repeated
"It's a wizard bank. If you have a key to your vault then you can make a deposit. This is your key. " Snape said handing her the key.
"But dad gave me this one." Ellie said holding the small red key as she held the key that Snape gave her
"The one that I gave you is from your biological parents you may use whichever vault you want." Snape said
"Okay, so where is the leaky cauldron?" Ellie asked
"It's this way be careful, it's crowded " Snape said
Ellie's p.o.v.
We walked through the streets of London I couldn't stop smiling, I've always wanted to travel as we walked inside what looked like a pub called the leaky cauldron, everyone stopped what they did and gasped a bit.
" Good lord it's Ellie potter" the bartender whispered as a few people went to shake my hand."Good to see you! I saw your brother Harry this morning"
'My brother? He's here somewhere? Do I get to meet him today? Am I ready to see him?' I thought as I felt a millions emotions, I felt nervousness in my stomach.
" Tom we'll come back because would like to rent room here" Snape said
"Anything for Ellie potter I'll take your luggage and when you come back you'll have your room here" Tom said as he took my suitcase but I declined when he offered to take my blue backpack that I was carrying. I had a few things inside like my seashells to make necklaces and my lunch that dad packed for me. We walked to the alley of the leaky cauldron when Snape took out his wand and tapped the wall as the bricks magically moved to reveal a whole other street filled with shops.
" Ellie this is diagon alley this is where we're going to get your books, uniform and other things for Hogwarts." Snape explained
I looked around the streets. I smiled I saw different shops one that had a lot of broomsticks, cauldrons, one with colorful clothes even an ice cream shop! Snape led me to the bank as we stepped inside I saw what they looked like little people instead.
"They're Goblins they're in charge of every wizards money" Snape said as we reached to one of the goblins, he looked at us.
"How may I help you?" He said
"We like to make a withdrawal from one of 's Vaults" Snape said
" Does have her key?" He asked as I saw his sharp teeth. Some how I could tell that you shouldn't mess with them when it comes to these types of things.
" Yes sir." I said taking out the red key that my dad gave me. I sorta knew if my brother was here earlier he probably took some money out too. Sure I was curious what my biological parents left me in the vault but I wanna see what's in the other vault. As the three of us went to take a cart ride to the mines, the goblin led us to a vault deep into the mines.
"Here we are vault number 815 " the goblin said as he opened the vault my jaw literally dropped It was like looking at the pirate treasure in the stories a mountain of gold,silver and copper i even saw small jewels too. I was afraid to walk inside since I was too mesmerized by it.
"The currency is different then what your used too. Il make this clear Knuts are the bronze ones, sickles are the silver and galleons are the gold ones. 29 knuts make one sickle, 17 sickles make a galleon, 493 knuts make a galleon." Snape explained as I had a small pouch I stuffed it with a lot of galleons,sickles and knuts until I felt my pouch pretty heavy that I stopped. We went back to the surface as We walked out of gringotts.
"First we should get your robes at Madam Malkin's Robes for All Occasions." Snape said as I followed him inside the shop full of robes and other clothes that wizards and witches wear.
" Ah you must be Ellie potter! Your brother was here earlier well come on sweetie let me measure you." she said
As I stood on top of a stool as I glanced at the window then my eyes glanced at Snape. He had a certain look in his eyes that I couldn't put my finger on it. It was a kinda sad look as I saw a bit of sorrow in it. But maybe I'm imagining it. We were done with the shop I held my new school robes in a box as I smiled I usually wear normal clothes going to school so I'll have to get used to wearing a uniform. After that we stopped by Potage's Cauldron Shop Snape explained to me the different types of cauldron in the shop since il be using one for his class we bought the one from the list, we also got my books and potions kit.
"The last item on the list is your wand so you go in this shop ollivanders and I'll be back in a few minutes" Snape said
I went inside the shop I saw lots and lots of boxes all over the shop.
" Ah you must be Ellie potter you look so much like your mother Lily, your brother was here earlier he looked more like your father. Come here don't be shy." He said
He took out some measuring tape measured my right arm as he searched in a box.
"Try this cherry 9 1/2 dragon heartstring nice and sturdy " he said as I held the wand " give it a wave"
I waved it a vase broke as I jumped and put the wand at the table.
"Nope not that one..." He said taking another box out "Try this mahogany unicorn hair 10 inches pliable " I gave it another wave as papers flew everywhere, I panicked "Very tricky customer just like your brother..." He stopped and started to think for a minute. He took out another box. "Here we go try this one Willow 11 inches Phoenix feather slightly swishy "
I took a hold at the wand I felt a warm sensation from the wand as something bright flew off the tip of the wand, I looked at ollivander.
"It feels warm..." I said as the shopkeeper smiled
"That's your wand a good combination if I do say so myself that'll be 7 galleons " he said
I got out of the shop I couldn't stop smiling I got a wand a Real magic wand! I can't wait to do magic! If only dad was here to see this! Then my smile faded away as I thought of him. I wonder if he's okay? I know he might be lonely now since I won't be at home...as I heard a animal sound, I turn to see Snape holding an owl he held it out to me.
"This is for you, it's your birthday today isn't it?" He said as I looked at the owl the color was white as snow with one black dot in its forehead.
" Thank you, you didn't have to get me anything " I said as I smiled at the owl I decided to name her Rose.
" I've already owled your father to tell him that you're here safely and have a place to stay." Snape said
We walked back to the leaky cauldron. As they've already assign a room for me.
"Your father thought it be okay for you look around diagon alley the next few weeks. Anything feel free to owl me. " Snape said as he showed me how to send mail to others using rose.
"Thank you for everything today " I said giving him a smile. He avoided eye contact to me which hot me kinda curious but I decided to leave it at that.
" Don't forget to read your books over the summer" he said "Here is your ticket Don't lose it, il see you in the new term."
Snape left as I closed the door, I saw all of the things that we got. I lied on the bed as I looked at my owl Rose.
"We're going to be good friends" I said opening her cage letting her out. The first thing I did was open my new text books to read a bit. I couldn't wait to go to hogwarts, I hope I'll get to make new friends there...but wait what about my friend Lucas? Is he gonna wonder where I am? He said he was going to a private school after summer was over and I'm at London right now...I know I'll send him a letter right now to...wait he'll think I'm making this up...maybe dad will make an excuse for me. I took a pencil and paper as I wrote the letter, I had rose send her to my dad I know it might take a while. Rose flew with the letter as I changed to my pajamas, I got ready to sleep. Hoping that the new school is nice and well...Magical.
