Love the new chapters you've put p in my absence. PAMS! | Its okay! I havent been reading yours..... Im a dork! Im sorry!!
Anyways! Here is a new post, FINALLY!
Ive just finished writting it! Sorry if I mess thing up or if its not great! lol
Alrighty, here it is!! James Potter was soaring down down down a dark and dampish tunnel. He and his family were on their way to the Potter vault to get some gold for school supplies. There was a big smile on James’s face as the goblin brought the cart to a stop in front of a rather large vault. The small goblin with a bad attitude waddled over to the vault door and brought out a very big and a very odd, misshaped key from his pocket and then turned to Mr. Potter. “And your key sir?” He asked his wrinkled hand held out.
Mr. Potter put his hand in his pocket and brought out an extremely small silver key.
The goblin snatched it slid the small key inside the large key from the bottom. James looked confused as the goblin turned the key in the lock.
James completely forgot the confusion as the vault door opened. He had never seen so much gold in all his life! James knew his family had money, but he had never actually seen it. There was what seemed like mountains of gold and silver piled all over the place!
Mr. and Mrs. Potter entered the vault with five leather pouches and they filled each of them. As they walked out, James hears the small banker mumbled something like “Rich people. Always the rich people.”
They sped back upward to the bank and walked out to Diagon Alley. The bright light hurt at first, it took James a while to get used to it.
Finally they were on there way to their first shop! It was Flourish and Blotts. They were I there for what seemed like hours to James!
“Mum! Come on! I want to get my wand!” James said, trying to balance a pile of school books in his arms.
“Wait, wait, there are some good books in here! Maybe you should get some extras, just for fun!” She suggested, picking up about 5 more books.
“Eleanor. Honey. Let’s be honest. Your son is not going to read those books!” Mr. Potter said. He grabbed the books from her arms gently and put them back in there places. He gave his wife a kiss on the cheek and she smiled.
“Okay, okay! I just want to make sure he learns everything he needs.” She said as she walked to the counter.
They bought his books and then headed back out into the bustling street.
About half way to another shop Mrs. Potter crouched down in front of her son. “Alright James! Where would you like to go?” She asked.
James thought for a while, looking at each of the shops. He really wanted to get his wand! He had been dying to use one since he “played” with his dads when he was about 9!
“Ollivanders!” James said smiling towards the shop.
James suddenly heard his name and looked around his dad to see that he was talking to a very big man! Standing beside the big man was a short but wide boy, looking to be about his age.
“Hey there Peter! I hope we get the same house!” He said politely, but he really just wanted to get to the wand store.
James hadn’t even heard the boys reply before he said, “Okay, mum, can we go now? I want to stop by Ollivanders before it’s too crowded!” James said, turning his smiling face into one of begging.
And without even looking back at the boy, they headed to the shop. James didn’t even think once of the boy the rest of the day! He had too much fun shopping for his Hogwarts supplies.
When they made it in the wand shop a mad with brown, but graying hair approached them. “Aw, Mr. and Mrs. Potter, seems like yesterday when I saw you last! “12 ˝ inch pine, springy, great for defense!” He said, pointing at Mr. Potter. “And a… 11 inch oak wood, unicorn hair, best for charms!” He said to Mrs. Potter.
Then, he turned to James. “I know just the wand for you!” The old man walked to the very back of his shop and could only be heard occasionally saying thing like, “No, not that one.” Or “Where is that bliming thing?”
Finally that man returned with a long black box. He opened it and unwrapped a wand that was long and winding. “This has been in my shop for ages! 11 ˝ inch mahogany, phoenix feather!” He said, handing it to the boy.
James grabbed the wand and held it close. Red and gold sparks flew from the tip, giving the Potters a sort of firework show. “And what is this wand best for?” James asked a big, confident smile on his face.
“When with you, Transfiguration, defense, and charms! That’s a very good wand.” He said. “That will be 9 galleons please.” He said, holding out his hand. Mr. Potter grabbed the money and they walked out with his wand.
“I must be really good at all those things!” James said beaming.
“Now, don’t go getting a big head James! You haven’t even had one class on any of those things!” Mrs. Potter said, giving her son a pat on the head.
“Yeah, but, AHHH!!” James was interrupted by something small and wrinklely that had crashed into him. “Hey! Watch it!” James said pointing his new wand at whatever creature knocked him down; rubbing his throbbing head.
“So sorry sir.” A wrinkly grey house elf replied. “Didn’t see you there.” He replied, looking calm, but rubbing his ears as if they had been smashed. “Evil little Potter boy…” The house elf whispered to himself.
“What did you say?” James asked the creature. “How do you know my name?”
The elf didn’t reply, instead James heard a loud yell from behind him.
“KREACHER!” A boy with long black hair yelled, breathing hard. “You’re supposed to be watching me! Not the other way around!” He said. Then the boy looked up at the scene. “I’m sorry if he’s bothered you! I’m Sirius Black.” He said a frown on his young face.
“Uhm… Hello. I’m James Potter. Your elf here just knocked me down and said I was an evil little boy!” James said, picking himself up from the ground.
“Sorry, ignore him! He thinks he knows everything! Anyway! Are you going to Hogwarts? Will you be a first year?” He asked, suddenly getting a little excited.
“Yes!” James said, forgetting about the grey elf. “I just got my books and my wand!” He said, showcasing it in his hands.
“I was just on my way to getting my wand!” Sirius said smiling. The house elf called Kreacher started pulling on Sirius’s robes. “Ug!” Sirius said, kicking the small thing away from him. “I’m sorry! I must go! Hope to see ya later!” The boy said, walking away.
“Well… that boy seemed sweet.” Mrs. Potter said, looking a bit shocked that he had just kicked his house elf.
“He seemed great!” James said smiling. Then he headed towards the shops… Tell me whatcha think!!!!

That was great! Interesting how he completely ignored Peter. No that I blame him, but poor lad! He does seem to instantly have a rappor with Sirius. And HOW did Kreacher know who James was?????? |

Cambell Anne Robinson Minister's Office | Hey guys!!
So, in my oppinion this upcoming chapter and these recent ones that Ive posted have been slightly.... boring... I dont know! There not normal! lol
Anyway! Stick with me! They will get better I promise!!
I love you guys!!!!!
Heres the next... not so good... post! “Lily! Lily wake up!” Lily heard someone whisper eagerly from her bedside. As Lily opened her eyes she saw a blurry Severus standing over her.
“Severus! Get out of here!” Lily shouted groggily, covering her flowery nightgown with her blanket. “How did you get in here in the first place?” She asked her face as fiery red as her hair.
“The door.” Severus said sarcastically, but then noticing the look on her face he put up his hands as if in surrender and exited. “Okay, okay! I’ll be in the dining room.” He said closing the door behind him.
Lily got up from her bed shaking her head, “Boys!” She said to herself.
About 30 minutes later Lily walked into the living room in much more suitable clothes. She grabbed a piece of toast and sat across Severus next to her mom. She didn’t look once at the cowering boy, but instead started a conversation with her mother.
“Mum, is Petunia coming with us? I bet she would love to see Diagon Alley! It will be full of amazing things!” She asked hopefully.
Mrs. Evans looked between her daughter and Severus for a moment, a small smile on her lips until she heard what Lily asked. “Oh… No dear. She’s said she isn’t feeling well today. I’m sorry.” She said, frowning slightly, thinking about her oldest daughters actions towards Lily.
For the first time Lily looked at Severus, feeling bad for what they had done the night before. They had snuck in Petunias room and read a letter from the Headmaster at the wizarding school refusing her acceptance to Hogwarts. She had cried herself to sleep and wouldn’t let Lily or anyone else comfort her…
Severus looked back at her with a fake look of remorse. He actually thought it was quite funny that they wouldn’t accept her; he never liked Petunia! But, he did care what Lily thought and he respected her sympathy.
Mr. and Mrs. Evans, Lily and Severus were all looking around Diagon Alley with dropped jaws. It was just like any old city street except it was filled with oddly dressed people in cloaks and pointed hats and some were holding wooden sticks and waving them around! There were also owls, everywhere! In broad daylight! Lily also spotted a few people doing magic!
“How exciting!!” Lily exclaimed jumping up and down. “Okay, now let’s take our time! I want to see everything! We have to go to the Wizarding bank first!” She said quickly. Without thinking the others might take a bit longer to get used to the magical sight, Lily began walking down the street toward a white marble building called Gringotts Bank. A few seconds later, Lily felt herself being knocked back, but she caught herself just before she fell and looked up wildly to tell off however had ran into her. The sight she saw actually scared her. Above her was tall, sinister looking woman, she had long straight black hair and her face was pointed and lifted as if she wanted everyone around her to feel small.
“Sorry about that!” Lily muttered quickly. The woman in turn just stuck her nose even further in the air and walked off in the direction Lily had been headed. The young witch shook her head and smiled weakly to herself. “What an experience…” She whispered to herself, and then walked back to her family and Severus.
“I would like to exchange please!” Mr. Evans said brightly. A wrinkled and bad tempered Goblin looked down on them and sighed, he held out his grayish hand to receive the money.
Lily couldn’t help but be a little frightened by the small creatures! She had never seen anything like them! And, she was already shaken from the incident she had got herself into earlier.
Lily heard the goblin mutter something that sounded like, “Muggles!” as he stamped a piece of parchment and handed over a bag filled with coins.
“Uh, thank you!” Mr. Evans said giving the creature a smile. The goblin returned with a grimace and the four of them left the bank.
When they stepped out Severus explained what each coin was and what there amount was and then they were off to Flourish and Blotts because Lily couldn’t wait one more moment until she could read all about magic!
Severus looked around the book store, a slight frown on his pale face. His eyes traveled to the sign that read ‘USED AND FOR SALE’. He waited until Lily was entranced by the shop and snuck over to the books under the sign. He quickly grabbed all the books on his list and bought them, bagged them and hid them before Lily had even picked up a single book.
After about half on hour of excited squeals from Lily and complaints and growls of boredom form Mr. Evans and Severus, they finally left the book shop.
Next was Madam Malkin's Robes for All Occasions. A small, sweet woman was fitting Lily, while talking delightedly about Hogwarts; while Severus was standing, mortified as a large, manlike woman with a German accent pulled cloak after cloak over his head, complaining that he was too skinny!
They finally got everything they needed and walked out of the shop with bags full of new robes; Severus’s one bag was much smaller, filled with only 2 used robes that were too large and ruggy winter items.
After the four of them had visited the Cauldron shop and the ink and quills shop Mr. Evan offered to get everyone an ice cream at Florean Fortescue's Ice Cream Parlour.
Each of them slurped on there treats as they talked endlessly about things that had happened to them throughout the day.
Lily missed Petunia. She felt bad that she wasn’t there with them… that she didn’t belong with her at Hogwarts…
“REMUS!” Screamed a blonde haired witch looking frantic as she ran into the shop. She sped over to a boy who looked around the same age as Severus and Lily. He had light brown hair, his eyes had dark circles and there were small scratches on his young face.
The boy looked around the shop at the woman, embarrassment creeping in his face as he held a vanilla ice cream cone.
When the woman reached the boy she hugged him and started whispering things to him. She pulled him into a hug once more and the two walked out of the shop together.
Lily looked around at her parents with a questioning look.
“She must have thought he was lost.” Mrs. Evans said answering Lily unvoiced question.
… 
Hope you liked it.... |
