Love And Evil
So it seem so long ago that... Tom Riddle... asked me a question... that I never really answered. (P.S I'm not done with this book just yet so stay tuned!)

Vaults Please
Chapter 5
After our awe moment we looked around for the biggest building (which wasn't hard since it was humongous.) "That must be Gringots." I said. Tom just nodded. When we were inside we walked up to the 'main goblin' and said, "Vaults please."
"Where are your keys." The goblin asked without looking up. I pulled out our keys and handed them to the goblin. He inspected them and then jumping of his chair said, "Follow me." We followed him to a cart where we jumped in.
"Hold on tight." He told us. We zoomed off at quickening pace. Soon we were at my vault, 777. My favorite number 3 times. When I opened my vault I gasped. There were piles and piles of gold, silver, and copper. I went inside and pulled a little, brown, soft bag out of my pocket and started filling it with some gold, silver, and copper. I was smart with money. Then we went to Tom's vault (396) which was just as spectacular as mine. When we were done we left and wonder around Diagon Ally. We saw Ollivander's Wand Shop and went inside. An old man greeted us and handed Tom a wand. Tom looked at the man confused. "Wave it." The old man whispered. Tom waved it and nothing happened. Tom went through 16 wands but when he waved the 16th wand a black streak of thick smoke can out and wrapped around him before disappearing. Mr.Ollivander stared at Tom as if he were scared. Then it was my turn. Wand after wand none seemed to FEEL right for me. On my 35th wand I got a good feeling in me. It felt right. I waved it and pink sparks flew forward. "Oak wood, unicorn tail hair core, and slightly unyielding." He said to me.
"What about mine?" Tom asked. When he told him I didn't quite listen. I was focused on my wand. Unicorn tail core. When we left Mr.Ollivander's shop we went to a shop that sold trunks so we both bought one. Mine had a V painted on the front in red. Then we went to a store that sold ink, parchment, and quills. I got color changing ink, blue ink, green ink, red ink, yellow ink, and 20 bottles of black ink. I also got 100 rolls of parchment and quills that had different patterns on them. Tom and I had a blast picking things out. We each bought 2 pewter cauldrons (just in case.) We then hit Madam Malkins Robe shop for some robes. We got dress robes and then 7 pairs of everyday robes. We had a race to see who could find all their books the fastest and I won. I t took Tom 10 minutes and it took me 3 minutes. When we had everything done we sat outside an ice-cream store eating ice-cream and organizing our trunks. Just then I realized something.
"Tom, look at the bottom of the letter. It says we need an owl." So when everything was put in the trunks we found a pet store and bought owls. Mine was a black owl that I named Night. Tom's was a brown owl with white wings. He named his Feathers. I looked down at my watch and gasped.
"Tom it's 5:45!" I gasped.
"We better hurry."He gasped. We ran through Diagon Ally trying to find the brick wall.I threw a golden coin over my head as we ran and it landed in a beggars cup. We soon found the brick wall and when it opened we ran through. When we met up with Cindy she said,
"Right on time!" She quickly drove us back to the orphanage and told us that we were in charge for the night and gave us a list of things to make sure get done. Then she left for her job interview. We made sure everything got done and then went to bed. When Iwas about to fall asleep I couldn't help remember me saying, "Vaults please."
