Alright, I'm going to make the japanese bold because the italisized (can't spell that) didn't work as well as I had hoped. I hope this works out better. Sorry but I have to bend the time line a little bit because Bleach takes place in the early 2000's and Harry Potter is a little later, also I like Sprout from the books and I have no idea who takes over as Headmaster now so I choose her!
"So what exactly do we need?" Uryu asked Hagrid as they walked down the streets of London. After they had left Ichigo's house they had taken the train Tokyo where they got on a plane to London and are now walking threw London's streets. Hagrid didn't really tell them much about anything the entire time, and now that they were going to have to really get into this, Uryu thought it would be a good idea to ask.
"Read yer list." Hagrid said, handing him a second piece of parchment. Looking at the others, Uryu started to read out in Japanese.
"Uniform: Three set's of plain work robes, black. One pointed hat for day wear, One pair of protective gloves, dragon hide or similar, one winter cloak, black with siverfastenings. Please note that all puiples clothing should carry name tags. Corse books, all students should carry a copy of eah of the following. A standard book of spells grade six by Miranda Goshawk, A history of magic by Bathilda Bagshot, Advanced Transfiguration by Emerie Switch, One thousand Magical Herbs and Fungai by Phyillda Spore, Advanced Drafts and Potions by Arsenius Jigger, Fantastic beasts and where to find them by Newt Scamander, and the Dark forces by Quentin Timble. Other Equipment, one wand, one cauldron pewter standard size two, one set glass or crystal phials, one telescope, one set of brass scales, and students may bring if they desire a cat or an owl or a toad." Uryu read out, then he looked at the others.
"What the hell?!" Ichigo yelled in confusion.
"Where are we supposed to find stuff like this?" Uryu asked.
"Diagon Alley of course! I'll take you threw to get your things before we check you in at the inn." Hagrid said. Uryu quickly translated for the others.
"So what's the money like? I mean is it different like the kan in the soul society?" Orihime asked. Uryu translated, leaving out the kan and the Soul Society. Hagrid nodded.
"Yah, yer see, the first is the bronze knut, then you have the silver sickle, and finally the gold galleon. Twenty-nine knuts is one sickle and seventeen sickles to a galleon." Hagrid explained. Uryu translated for the others. "Yer see, we're kinda worried about this year. We've never had any wiches or wizards not picked up by any of the schools, so when we learned there were four that we all managed to overlook. Usually a student starts going at eleven, but your all sixteen, making you sixth years. Usually it's a seven year program but we're going to put you in your sixth year, it's a bit of a gamble to expect you to ceatch up but you need your education." Hagrid said. Uryu translated quickly or the others.
"That's just dumb!" Ichigo complained.
"What'd he say?" Hagrid asked.
"Nothing important." Uryu translated. The group continued walking in silence until they arrived at a shabby pub titled 'The Leaky Couldron.'
"Hey Uryu, ask him where we are?" Ichigo demanded. Uryu sighed but turned to Hagrid non-the-less, translating his question.
"The Leaky Couldron." Hagrid answered. 'As if we couldn't read that!' Uryu thought, then realized that Ichigo, Orihime, and Chad couldn't. Quickly he told them as Hagrid opened the door. Uryu couldn't help but notice that the people passing by didn't even look at the building. They went into a dimly lit pub where people sat in the dark, drinking and laughing. Uryu could see chairs moving on their own accord as well as trays of drinks. All four teens were speachless. Hagrid smiled as he started leading them threw.
"Hagrid! Oh, it's good to see you, did you need something?" the bar tender yelled at them. She was a beautiful blonde woman in her thirty's form apperance. Hagrid shock his head.
"Sorry Hannah, not today, I'm takin' these kids to go shopin'." Hagrid said.
"Oh, are those the three that are stayin' here for the rest of the month." said the woman. Hagrid nodded.
"WHAT?!" Uryu asked. Even though the others couldn't understand, they could tell from the tone something wasn't right.
"What's wrong?" Ichigo asked.
"Is everything alright?!" Orihime asked at the same time. Hagrid looked down at Uryu.
"The term starts on September first, so you all leave on Augest thrity first. Since it's mid Augest you need to stay here until you leave fer school. Hannah will take you all to the train station when I leave." Hagrid said.
"Your leaving?" Uryu asked. He should have known Hagrid wouldn't wait around for them to start school, but it was unsettiling to have to stay in a place for two weeks with no one around that they knew or had any connection too. Hagrid nodded.
"The woman is the landlady of the Leaky Cauldron. Her name is Hannah Abbott Longbottom. Her husband, Nevile Longbottom is actually a teacher of yours at Hogwarts. They both live above the bar." Hagrid told them. Uryu quickly told the others, translating it over in Japanese as fast as he could. Then they went out the back door into a walled off alley.
"What is he doing?" Ichigo asked. Uryu asked for him but Hagrid ignored them, pulling out a pink umbrllia.
"Oh, pretty!" Orihime gasped looking at it. Then Hagrid tapped the wall. The bricks jumped to life, startiling the four teens and opened up into an alley of screaming people and shops.
"Welcome to Diagon Alley." Hagrid said. Uryu translated for the others. Then they entered. "Now we need to get yer potion supplies so we should go to the Apothecary. Then we'll head on over to Potidger Cauldrons fer thoes." Hagrid said, pulling them along to a nearby shop. It was filled with strange things that made the teens uneasy and Uryu had to translate everything. Hagrid ordered four sets of potion ingredients before taking them to buy cauldrons. "I already exchanged yer money at Gringotts, so you lot won't have to worry about that." Hagrid explained.
"Gringotts?" Uryu asked.
"Wizard bank, it's ran by Goblins." Hagrid explained. He then pulled them into a store called Flurish and Blotts to get books, then Madam Malkins for robes. They got measured and Hagrid made them buy dress robes as well. Orihime had ones made in pink, Uryu's midnight blue, Ichigo's blood red, and Chad's were a dark green. Then Hagrid pulled them into many other shops.
"Hey, what's that one?" Ichigo pointed at a very crowed store. Uryu looked at the sign.
"Weasleys' Wizard Wheezes." Uryu said.
"Oh that, yah it's a joke shop." Hagrid said. Uryu turned to tell him.
"Can we go in?" Orihime asked. Hagrid paused after Uryu translated.
"If not that's alright." Uryu told him.
"No it's just... The store was founded a good few years ago by two former students and friends of mine. Fred and George Weasley. Never had I ever seen two such trouble makers like them, even some of the ones in the past I had seen were a tough comparison. They were good boys though. Unfortunitaly there was an acident and Fred was killed. George never got over that and continued to run the shop on his own. For a while there it looked like their brother Ron was going to help run the store with him, but after they got it running better than ever, Ron returned to his old job." Hagrid explained.
"So it has a lot of memories for you." Uryu said. Hagrid nodded with a smile. Uryu told the others quietly so they could know as well, then they started down the street again when they came to a run down building labled 'Ollivanders, makers of fine wands since 382 B.C.' An elderly man came around a corner of a shelf, which the store was full of, filled with books.
"Ah, new students! But older than usuall, no matter. Well, ladies first." he said. The others looked confused and Uryu told Orihime to step forward. She did hesitantly and smiled. Then the man pulled out a wand. "Ah yes, lets try this one, ten inches Rosewood with a phenoix feather core." he said handing it to her. "Well give it a wave." he added. Uryu translated and the wand shot out a line of sparks, making them all jump. "Very good, that is seven galleons." he said. Hagrid paid him and Uryu told her she was done. Orihime sighed in releif and ran with Hagrid out of the store. "What was the young ladies name?" the man asked.
"Orihime Inoue." Uryu said. The man nodded. Then he gesturend to Chad.
"Your next my boy, and your name?" he asked. Uryu translated quickly.
"Yasutora Sado." Chad said. The man nodded.
"Good, let's try this one, thirteen inches, Hornbeam with Dragon Heart String, suitable for a large boy like you." the man said. Chad tock it and sparks flew out, causing him to look at it in astonishment. "Very good." the man said, and Uryu quickly paid as he watched Chad leave the store. Then the man whirled around to the only two left. "Let's see, I think we'll go with the red head, and your name my boy?" the mand asked. Uryu translated to Ichigo.
"Ichigo Kurosaki, and who are you?" Ichigo said. Uryu quickly translated for him as Ichigo stepped forward.
"Oh so you can speak English as well as understand. My name is Ollivander. Now , try this one, twelve inches ash with unicorn hair." he said. Ichigo tock it and sparks flew out. Following the others lead, he paid the man and left. Then Ollivander turned to Uryu. "And your name my boy?" he asked.
"Uryu Ishida." Uryu said.
"Interesting. So you speak and understand English while your friends do not. Try this one, Mahogany with Unicorn hair, twelve inches." he said, but nothing happened. Uryu tried more, but nothing occured. Then the man pulled out a new one. "I hope this one doesn't work, but we can try." he said, handing it to Uryu. "Twelve inches, Cherry with Pheonix feather core." the man said. Uryu tock it and sparks flew out. "This is indeed curious." the man said. Uryu tock an uneasy breath.
"Why?" he asked. THe man looked at him.
"Mr. Ishida, I remember every wand that I have ever sold. You see I've been around for a while and thirty one years ago I sold a wand to a young boy. Holly with pheonix feather, eleven inches. It was a very good wand and it was to Harry Potter. Years before that I had sold a wand of yew with pheonix feather core, thirteen inches. This one went to the Dark Lord, Voldemort. In all of my time making wands, I had never had a case like this. A single pheonix only gave two tail feathers to be used to make wands. It is unknown why, but wands choose their wizards, not the other way around. As fate would have it, the two that held these wands were destined to clash against each other in a battle tat one would live and one would die. Now as history often does, it looks like it is about to repeat itsself once more. You see the wand I have just sold to you also has a phenox fether from a bird that has only given two. If things are about to be repeated, then it is clear that we are to expect many great things to you. As I said, the wands choose their wizards, now it's up to you to live up to their expectations." he said. Uryu looked at the man and noticed his hand was shaking as he handed over the money and fled the shop.
"URYU! Are you alright!" Orihime cried.
"You look pale." Hagrid said Uryu shock it off with a small smile. Hagrid nodded at them. "Well this is where I leave. This is everything yer lot needs, your tickets, and some money for the school year from yer guardian. Now Hannah will take yer all to King's cross station. At eleven o'clock you'll all be getten' on a train at platform nine and three quarters to leave fer Hogwarts. That's abou' it." he said. Uryu nodded and looked at the others. Suddenly this school year didn't sound like a good idea.
