Hayley walked over to the wand accessories display with her wand placed in her hand looking for a new holster. However she came across a wand polish kit and house wands! Woah! That's an amazing idea. However she knew she wouldn't have enough money to buy a house wand...well probably not at least.

She grabbed a wand polish kit, looking it over to see what was inside. Hmm one wand polish container, two special cloths and your choice of holster. That sounded pretty neat but she already had some wand polish and cloths back at Vanessa's house. She shrugged and picked up a velvet holster and walked back over to the counter.

Alice walked over to the display case and took a look inside, wondering what she should get to protect her wand. Seeing that they had a whole wand cleaning kit she decided that would be best, and perhaps the Velvet case would be nice and soft for it. Happy with her decision she grabbed one of the kits and headed over to the counter to make her purchase.

Gah! Josh definitely needed a new wand polish kit since his owl bit his wand. Now there was a little scratch on the wand thanks to the naughty bird and it was really really annoying the Gryffindor boy. And it was his mother's idea that instead of complaining about that little scratch, it was a better way to show it to the wand maker.

Aaand where was the wand maker? Looking a little bit confused the boy looked around to figure out who could be the wand maker there but unfortunately there seemed to be no one who looked like a wandmaker. And...hand on a minute! He even did not know how wand makers looked like. *sigh*

So he decided to ask some random people if they were a wand maker yet the very moment he decided that something veeery insteresting caught his eyes in the display. ''Oooo'' he said hands in pockets as he watched the flying sparks. Too bad he did not have enough money to buy something like that.

"House wands... yyyou can get house wands?" Came the voice of Jake as he entered the wand shop, mostly out of curiosity. He was trying out his reading skills now, and having a ball. It was awesome to read, it WAS! He'd thought that after the OWLs, all the practicing he'd done would have been forgotten, but he could still read and ohhh, he'd been practicing.

YEP.

As he entered the shop, the kinda taller, still skinny boy bumped up against someone that he didn't realise he knew. Either way, he jolted his arm in a rather painful way and gasped loudly. "Ow!"

Oh, war wounds. How do I love thee, let me count the ways...

Still 'ooooing' the boy kept admiring the sparks. They were sparkling in his favourite colours. It was unlike of him to like sparkling things yet this wand, he decided that the sparks were coming from that wand in display, was something to admire if you happened to ask the boy's idea.

Again if only he had the enough money to buy a sparkling wand. Maybe he could give it to Evelyn as a present and make her admire him and maybe he could play with it by making his dog run after the sparks. Hehehe.

Maybe he could buy it. So to check his money, he searched in his pockets and found some coins in there. Good good. Now to count the coins...

And when he prepared himself to count the coins someone bumped in and the coins scattered everywhere. ''Gah! My coins! Can't you watch where you are going?'' he said angrily looking down at what left from his coins : only two knuts.

Then he looked up and his eyes got narrowed at the other boy's sight when Josh recognised him.

Jake

And then, there was that familiar voice.

Ugh.

BUT they were in public, so Jake had to at least try and be nice. "Sorry," he said shortly, and kind of looked at the coins on the floor. "You could just p-p-pick them up."

Duh.

Noting the glare he was getting, Jake just stared back. "Ssssomething wrong?"

*glare*

Why he happened to lose something whenever he saw this Jake boy was a mystery for the Gryffindor boy.

A total mystery.

Maybe he was cursed or something or maybe he was really evil. Yeah somebody must have been really evil to scatter his already little money in a random shop. He only had those and he even had not yet tried those new flavours of ice cream yet. *sniffle*

And since Jake said 'sorry' and Josh was more concerned with his loss, he decided not to punch him in the face at least just for now. ''Yes, something is really wrong'' he said looking down at the coins then glaring back at him ''Now you are going to pick them up''

Raising one eyebrow, Jake made the decision there and then to not react. Not in public. He wouldn't cause trouble anymore when it came to this kid.

Plus, it always annoyed the bullies more when he didn't react the way they wanted him to.

"You know... if yuhh-you'd have asked nnnicely, I mmmight have done, bbbut it's too late now," Jake shrugged. He might have even felt bad. But it wasn't like he couldn't get the shopkeeper to summon any lost coins. "You're a vvvvery rude kid. You'd duhh-do well to lllearn some manners."

And he knew what he could do if he didn't like what Jake was saying. By all means, Josh could run and tell Jake's parents. He knew them, after all.

Which sucked, but oh well. "I'm nnnot arguing with you, Juhh-josh. Nnnnot in here."

Grrrrr...

It's too late now. The sentence echoed in Josh's head. Who did that Jake boy think he was? First he scattered all his coins everywhere in the shop probably causing the Gryffindor lose some of them and now he was refusing to pick them up.

Still glaring at the other boy Josh took a deep breath to keep himself calm. By his nature he was a little bit of an agressive type so he was having difficulty with controlling his anger especially when it was about that Hufflepuff. Nevertheless he managed not to hurt the other boy as she spoke again. ''Manners ha? Manners? Well...nobody is perfect. For example you are VERY annoying.'' he said and bent down to pick up what was left from his coins. ''We will see what you are going to once i finish collecting my coins back''

"I am? Ahhh, okay. Thuhh-thanks for llletting me know," Jake shrugged, moving to the side to examine some wands. If Josh was going to continue with this, he'd have to take it outside. Something told him he'd be lucky to get away without being hit; Josh had a temper like that.

Trying to act like he was intensely focused on the wands, Jake waited tensely for Josh to start something else.

This was not what he was expecting. WHY couldn't the boy have started something away from Diagon Alley?

The very first thing I wanted to do after I got my letter was get a wand. Of course I had been obsessing over every aspect of magic since an owl landed in my breakfast.
The only problem was I was already an outsider. See my family and I just moved to London from Wisconsin so it was all very new....and scary.
Not that I was acting very scared. I just walked into a medieval street in jeans, a faded t-shirt, and a camouflage hat acting like I had done this a million times. Although I didn't have to talk to anyone.
My poker face slipped away when I saw some boys in the shop staring each other down. They seemed to tower over me. Should I lay low OR pick my head up and act like I knew what I was doing?
Wait!!!! I should probably stop staring at them before they say something to me. I practically crawled over to the display of wands. They were amazing; all sizes and colors. I would have started drooling had I not been so scared.
Ok, calm down. I told myself. Here, look a quiz just answer the questions and you'll be fine. Brielle, you always aced tests even if you didn't study. Ok, breath in and out.

See, the quiz is over and you submitted it. You are fine. Now what?

Amelie wandered over to the accessories area and hmm'd to herself as she looked at the kits. Nodding to herself she picked up a kit as well as a leather wrist holster before turning away and heading to the counter, wand in hand as well.

''It was a pleasure'' Josh replied sarcastically as he looked for more coins on the floor. He had managed to collect a few knuts so far and when looking at them again he could clearly remember that they were not that few! His already few money were fewer now. Though there seemed to be no more coins on the floor the boy kept searching determinedly and he stepped next to the Hufflepuff boy as he did.

Sigh. He was almost sure that Jake might step on his coins on purpose. So the Gryffindor poked the boy who seemed to be examining the wands in display to make him step to the other side. ''Mooove'' he said with a cold tone yet when he was about to poke him again he lost his balance for some unknown reason and fell into the pile of colourful house wands. ''Gah! You did this! Right! You did!''

And now it was the wands' turn to be scattered around.

This kid had the temper of a pregant bull. SRSLY!

"Chill out!" Jake exclaimed, kind of taken aback by the outburst. He HADN'T done ANYTHING, and he may have help pick up the wands if Josh hadn't started having a go at him again.

GAH! How was he supposed to deal with this.

"I'm gggoing to go out to the ssstreet, 'cause I don't wwwwant to cause any ttttrouble in here. Then we'll ttttalk."

Geeeez.

With that, Jake stepped around the wands, pinching the bridge of his nose (and being sure to check he wasn't about to be tripped up) and exited the shop.

So much for buying a wand polishing set.

Callie, wand in her hand skipped over to where the shopkeeper had pointed at her to detour on her way to the countor. She grabbed two wand polishing kits, just in case and a Velvet Holster. 3 holsters was a good number, she could swap lots. She then skipped over to the counter to pay for all her stuff.

Again he was denying what he did! Or at least Josh thought that way since falling on wands without a reason would be stupid aaaand Josh was definitely not stupid. No-no-no! He would never accept that. He was not clumsy either so he believed this was, surely enough, Jake's fault.

''I won't!'' he protested still lying on the wands ''I won't till you learn how to respect me!''. Yes, since he thought he was the master of almost everything, Jake had to respect him.

Finally getting on his feet the Gryffindor picked some of the wands to put them back in display right after putting the coins safely in his pocket. Meanwhile Jake was voicing that he was going to get out the place. Hah! The place and time did not matter for Josh. He could teach his lessons anywhere, anytime. So, he glaared after the Hufflepuff when he walked out the shop then putting the wands he was holding back, he followed the other boy to the street.

''We will talk.''

*scoff*

Wow this shop is HUGE!!'' thought Jacqueline. '' I'll need something to keep my new wand clean. I'll take this polish kit. Looks good.''She continued looking around the store.

even if Feenella havent got her wand yet, she wanted to look around.
What she found took her breath away.
She absolutely needed one of those velvet holsters, a polish kit and a slytherin wand.
She directly went to the copunter to ask for that wand and the engravitation.

Being Muggle-born, Ruby was very nervous as she walked into the wand store. She was biting her nails and kept looking over her shoulder, expecting strange things to happen. Then, once inside, she wanted everything in sight! Ruby decided to get a wand polishing kit, even though she hadn't been fitted for her wand yet. She also decided a house wand might be kind of cool; she would buy that now and come back for another wand after getting fitted for it. She headed for the counter to pay.

Ina rushed frantically to the display and scanned the contents. Smiling to herself, she grabbed a Wand Polish Kit, complete with leather holster, and scurried over to the counter.

Her last stop and her shopping for school would be done. Looking around the wand shop, Kay spotted what she needed. Looking around for the shopkeeper, she picked up the things that she needed and walked to the counter. The Wand Polish Kits with a leather Holster was what she needed, but she wanted to know what the House wand was.

Jason into the shop and wandered up to the shelves and stood up high on tip-toes to reach the wan polishing kit which was apparently a "Must Have". Taking the polishing kit he strode over to the other side of the shop to look for his very first wand.

Kody wanted a new holister, 'cause her wand was already awesome. It was all pinkkk and stuff, and she loved it. But a nice new pretty, perhaps sparkly, holister would be really nice. Mmhm. Very nice indeed.

Picking up a plan leather case, she immediately discareded it, searching for some more. Noticing some polishing kit as well, Nekoda picked it up reading the back carefully. She didn't want anything to chip the paint on her wand.

Sapphinelle walked in confidently, forgetting to grab a holster on the way out. She spotted a 'prep', a.k.a: a girly girl. Just like that Slytherin girl Savannah. Savannah stood up for her in front of those stupid girls that were obsessed with her, but would Savanah like her? Sapphinelle secretly wished she could be a bit girly like that. She had the confidence, but... could she be mean?
She walked up to this girl. "Hello! I'm Sapphinelle, I'm gonna be a first year!" she said cheerfully, hoping she didn't come off as annoying. "Hope I didn't interrupt you or anything." she said with a bit of fear. Her? Fearful? Rubbish. That was very unlikely.
