Isla realized that she was doing more of just hanging out and less of actual school shopping, but hanging out was way more fun. She'd actually met some of the kids she'd go to school with, and that was so much better than buying school robes and books. She'd get around to everything on her list...eventually. It wasn't like school started tomorrow or anything like that. Her mom and little sister had stopped to talk to somebody in the streets, so the firstie wandered over by a fountain that looked really cool and interesting.

She looked up and admired the dragons and cherubs, and she thought the whole thing was the coolest part of Diagon Alley. Even if there was a cherub with a missing head. One of the reasons why she thought the fountain was so cool is because just at that moment, it shot water straight out of it and hit some poor old man right in the face. Had Isla not been taught manners, she'd have laughed so hard that she might have fallen out, but she had been taught manners. She bit her lip to keep herself from laughing as she took a seat near two older girls.

She wished she had already made a group of friends to hang out with. It'd make going to a new school so much easier. Just then a whole stream of water shot her way, causing Isla to let out a small shriek and jump up from seat. She nearly ran right into both girls. "Sorry!" she said, feeling terrible about almost hitting him. "The fountain...it...kind of attacked."
