"All right, now remember, Diagon Alley. Very clearly!" Your mom says as she takes floo powder

"I get it!" You say

"Diagon alley!" Your mom says, she throws the powder down and the flames consume her. You take floo powder and clear your throat

"Diagon alley!" You say, you see grates upon grates as you feel yourself spinning around, but then you notice your mom. You exit at his grate

"All right?" She asks, you nod "come on, let's go to gringotts"

Timeskip

"Go get your robes, hat, gloves, wand and cauldron, I'll get your books, and James, be careful" your mom says, knowing you have a knack for getting yourself in trouble. You smile and nod before turning, you see Olivanders, the wand shop, you check your hand and see a decent amount of money, so you walk in. You see a brunette girl leaving with her parents, you accidentally bump into her

"Sorry" you both say

"si-" mr olivander says before clearing his throat "mr l/n"

"You know me?" You ask

"I knew of your father... clever boy... resin, 15 inches, if I recall correctly... you look a lot like him, almost expected to see..." he says before stopping "thought I'd see you here soon. Very well, I think I have the thing for you"
