Chapter 21<br />

The next morning Mrs. Weasley rushed the two couples out of the house. They used the flue network to<br />

get to WWW, <strong>and</strong> as <strong>Harry</strong> stepped out of the back room, where the fire place was located, he found<br />

that the shop was completely packed.<br />

George was wondering around, talking to customers <strong>and</strong> helping people. Angelina was behind the<br />

counter, working the register, <strong>and</strong> three other witches in purple robes were w<strong>and</strong>ering around<br />

restocking the shelves. These witches had there work cut out for them, each time they stocked a shelf it<br />

would empty in only a few minutes.<br />

Mrs. Weasley waved to her son over the crowd of customers; he spotted them <strong>and</strong> was soon by their<br />

side. "Hello all," he said, "<strong>What</strong> can I do for you?"<br />

"Oh, nothing," said Mrs. Weasley, "we just thought that we would stop by to say hello. We're on our<br />

way to get these three," she jerked her thumb over her shoulder at <strong>Harry</strong>, Ron <strong>and</strong> Hermione, "there<br />

school supplies."<br />

"Oh, that reminds me," said George as he pulled a small money bag out of his pocket. "Bill told me to<br />

give this to you <strong>Harry</strong>."<br />

<strong>Harry</strong> took the bag <strong>and</strong> thanked George. As they walked out of the shop Mrs. Weasley waved at<br />

Angelina, who smiled <strong>and</strong> waved back. "She <strong>and</strong> George are really getting serious," Mrs. Weasley said<br />

once they got out side. It was a beautiful summer day <strong>and</strong> Diagon Ally was in stark contrast to what it<br />

had been last time <strong>Harry</strong> was there. The streets were now full of young witches <strong>and</strong> wizards getting<br />

supplies for the upcoming year. Looking around <strong>Harry</strong> saw that many of the stores that had closed<br />

during the last year were now either reopen, or had a new store in their place.<br />

As they walked up the streets to Flourish <strong>and</strong> Blott's <strong>Harry</strong> saw that Oliv<strong>and</strong>er's was reopen, <strong>and</strong> that<br />

there was a small line of eager young children <strong>and</strong> nervous looking adults out side the shop. <strong>Harry</strong> saw<br />

tiny professor Flitwick talking to a few of the parents.<br />

"McGonagall said that they were going to bring the Muggle born first years here in groups," said Mrs.<br />

Weasley as she too noticed the line of children <strong>and</strong> parents. "Said something about it being safer <strong>and</strong> a<br />

bit less nerve wracking."<br />

<strong>Harry</strong> just nodded; he could see that people in the crowd of the ally were starting to recognize him, Ron<br />

<strong>and</strong> Hermione. "Uh oh," he muttered under his breath to Ginny, Ron <strong>and</strong> Hermione, "we're about to be<br />

bum rushed by a large group of fans."<br />

The group started to move towards Mrs. Weasley, Ron, Hermione, <strong>Harry</strong> <strong>and</strong> Ginny, <strong>and</strong> soon it got<br />

hard to move as the group closed in around them.<br />

As the group of admirers pressed in closer <strong>Harry</strong> drew out his w<strong>and</strong>, not an easy feat in the tightly<br />

packed crowed, <strong>and</strong> pointed it straight up. He silently sent a loud b<strong>and</strong> with gold sparks in to the air.<br />

Everybody around him ducked, <strong>and</strong> was silent. "All of you," shouted <strong>Harry</strong> in an authoritative voice, "I<br />

want to be left alone. The next person that tries to get my autograph will be in St. Mungo's for a week."<br />

He glared at all the people that were slowly starting to rise. He saw a bit of fear on their faces, but a<br />

few of the faces showed a bit of respect.<br />

Soon the crowed had dispersed, although there were some people that were pacing the five of them at a<br />

distance, <strong>and</strong> the small group of 5 was able to move again. "Wow <strong>Harry</strong>," said Hermione, "That's not<br />

the way I would have expected you to deal with a situation like that."<br />

"Are you disapproving, or telling me that I did a good job?" asked <strong>Harry</strong>, a bit harsher than he wanted
