This was quite possibly one of the most exciting things that had ever happened to her! Kate Addison stepped through the doors of Ollivander's far ahead of her mom, who kept calling out to her to wait up and refusing all the while to run after her. Kate was just too excited, though! She'd seen many wands in her life, but none of them had belonged to her! This one was going to be hers, and she could cast real magic with it!
She joined the line that had formed for the measuring tape and did a little bounce of happiness, since there was no way she could stand still right now. Her mother finally caught up with her and stood beside Kate as they waited.
"How many times do you think it'll take, Mom?" she asked, and then before Daphne Addison had a single second to answer, a second question came.
"What do you think the core will be?"
The line moved quickly then, and suddenly, Kate was at the front of it. The tiny blonde hurried up to the tape and held her arms wide as she waited for the magic to happen. The measuring tape danced around her arms as it took a measurement of how long they were. A second later, it was dashing this way and that, measuring her height, too. Kate didn't know what to do but just stand there and take it all in.
Finally, the tape was finished. It had spiraled away from her and was moving on to work with somebody else. She stepped down and waited with her mom again, but this time she was a little more still and quiet, because she guessed somebody would soon be along to give her her wand. Her blue eyes scanned the room, waiting for that person to appear and start walking her way.
