They walked along a little corridor and through some large doors, in there was some small carts and floating rails for them to go on. Helen and the goblin sat in the little cart.
"C'mon then!", said Helen and Cassie got into the cart behind Helen.
With a jolt the cart started moving. It picked up speed and went downwards. This reminded Cassie of that dreaded rollercoaster she went on last year.
They turned a corner and stopped. There was a large door with the number 2010 on it with a little keyhole in the centre. Helen got out of the cart and was followed by Cassie and the goblin. They walked up to the vault and waited for the goblin to open it for them. Helen stepped inside and so did Cassie. The room was half-full with Gold silver and bronze coins, it was wonderful. Helen took all of the Galleons and quite a lot of the Stickles and put them into a little pouch that she had around her neck.
They got back into the cart and went back to the first room they where in. Helen took back the key and put it in the same pouch as the money.
"So where next?", asked Helen
"I dunno, should I get all of my school stuff first?", said Cassie
"Oh yeah, you better be getting you're wand", said Helen as they walked toward the black shop with gold writing.
"A what? Is that what you're stick thing is? A wand?", Asked Cassie, she had a habbit of asking questions fast.
"Yes, it's a wand", Helen said taking out the stick she had used to open the wall. They walked into the black and gold shop and Cassie looked around, it looked a bit like an old library but not with books, with small boxes. A very old man was sitting at a desk in front of Cassie.
"Ah, you've come to purchase you're wand Miss McKerron?", Said the man
"How do you know-" But the man had already got out of his seat and began looking through his library of boxes. He emerged a few moments later with a thin brown box. He opened it and took the wand out. The wand was white and had a few engraved markings on the handle, thought it didn't have any parts that stuck out like Helen's it was just one thin, smooth stick. He turned it round so that Cassie could take the handle. She reached out and took it, straight away there was a sudden warm feeling as she took it and she just stood there staring at it.
"Wave it then", said Helen and Cassie did so. A soon as she did it there was massive yellow sparks coming from the end of it and Cassie nearly dropped it.
"Well this is definitely the one for you, Yew and unicorn hair, 10 inches", said the man that Cassie took to be called Olivander. Hope you all like it
