Chapter 3- Interesting…. Very interesting….

They stared at all the sights around them. Cooro was practically bouncing up and down in anticipation/excitement. Dumbledore smiled fondly at the students.
"Well, Senri, you can take Cooro, Nana, and Husky to Madam Malkins'?" he asked. Senri nodded, and started walking inside of Diagon Alley. Nana, Cooro, and Husky followed him inside. "And Max, may you take your flock toward Flourish and Blott's?" he gave her several lists, and a huge bag. "Buy all the books on the list, please." Max nodded, stunned, and then called out to her flock. "Come on, you guys!" Fang was by her side in an instant, and everyone followed them. Dumbledore smiled at the last group. "I shall accompany you to get your wands." He led the D. Gray-Man crew to Ollivander's wands.

With the Anima group…
Cooro looked around in awe.
"So awesome!" he said, rather loudly. Husky hit his head.
"Shut up, Cooro!" he hissed. Madam Malkins walked over to them.
"May I help you?" she asked them.
"We need some robes, please!" Cooro asked happily.
"Alright. Hogwarts, I suppose?" The Anima gang nodded.
"Well, let's get your robes sized up. I'll start with the youngest." Cooro bounded over, quite eagerly. Madam Malkin led the boy to a dressing room, and left her tape measure to measure the small boy quickly, while Madam Malkin searched for some robes for them. Cooro watched the object with fascination, happy with the fact that magic really did exist.

While the +Anima group were getting their robes, the D. Gray-man group was getting their wands with Dumbledore. Kanda's wand was 10 inches, Yew, with a scale from a Dragon. Lenalee's wand was 9 inches, Alder, and a hair from unicorn. Lavi's (being that awesome) was 13 inches, Holly, and Raven's wing. Allen's wand was Hazel, with a strand of unicorn hair with a phoenix feather. They headed off to get their robes, while Dumbledore went to go and get the Flock.

Professor Minerva McGonagall had decided to assist the group, by bringing their books back to Hogwarts to wait in Dumbledore's office. Three more port keys awaited the large group, and Minerva would use one for this very purpose. She went up to Dumbledore's office, along with Hagrid, and held firmly onto a muggle pot. They were sucked up (or so it felt) and left in The Leaky Cauldron, the entrance to the magical Diagon Alley.

Meanwhile, the flock had gotten their wands. Fang had gotten his, an 8 inch Dragon scale made of Ash, with a sliver of Raven's tail. Max's was 10 inches, made from Hazel, with unicorn hair, and Hawk's wing. Nudge's was 13 inches, made from Alder, with an owl's feather and Holly. Iggy had had a bit of trouble getting his, but eventually, he had gotten a 13-inch, Rowan, made with Phoenix feather. They walked out, pleased with themselves. Gazzy and Angel, the youngest, weren't able to get wands, due to the fact that they were not 11 yet. They were both disappointed by this, but excited and happy for the rest of their 'family'. The anima group was next for their wands. Husky got his first: 7 inches, Holly, with unicorn hair. Senri's wand was 13 inches, Alder, with dragon scales. Nana's wand was 8 inches, Hazel with unicorn hair. Cooro's wand was the most unusual of all, 10 inches, yew with Threstral hair. Cooro had fidgeted under Mr. Ollivander's hair, as he gave him a look of interest, and slight confusion. Cooro was tempted to ask why he was staring at him like that, but decided against it. It would probably lead to more personal questions that he probably wouldn't want to answer.

McGonagall had come with Hagrid to collect the new transfer students and their supplies. Cooro had wanted a cat, so they had allowed him to get a small, orange cat. Lavi had gotten a new rat, much to the confusion of the others. Angel had begged Max to let her pick out her own pet, but Max had forcibly refused, saying that she already had Total. Iggy had interfered, asking if he could have an owl. Max sighed, as Angel gave her the adorable Bambi eyes that she knew Max couldn't say no to. So, the flock gained one more family member- a tawny owl, which Angel and Iggy had both decided to name it Dawn, after Angel had explained what the owl looked like to Iggy. Fang looked at Max, and sighed. Max glared back at him and them seem to be telepathically talking and insulting each other, much to the amusement of the others. Hagrid grabbed their stuff and, saying a cheerful good bye to everyone, and taken the third port key, with McGonagall, and they went back to Dumbledore's office.

"So how did you all enjoy your trip to Diagon Alley?" Dumbledore asked the new transfers with a smile. Cooro nodded enthusiastically. "It was awesome! Can we come back again soon? There is so much we haven't seen yet!" Cooro begged him. Angel and Gazzy nodded. "Could we come back while everyone else is in class, Mr. Dumbledore?" Angel asked him innocently. Albus smiled down at the little girl, and shrugged. "Maybe, if we can find someone who is willing to come with you." Cooro pouted."That is so not fair!" Husky hit him with his new wand. "Shut up, we get to learn magic." Cooro immediately looked happy again, and Nana sighed. "Baka." She scolded him, with a slight smile. Max nodded, "Yeah that is pretty awesome."

"And also, all third year students and above get to go on, ah, 'field trips' to other magical place in this area, Hogsmeade."

"What's at Hogsmeade?" Lavi asked excitedly, acting like Cooro. Again.

"Ah, you will see in due time, Mr. Lavi. But now, it is time for us to go back to Hogwarts, I'm afraid, and get a head start on all those classes you have." Lavi and Cooro pouted slightly in disappointment. "Well, let's go." Albus smiled, and led them back to the fourth and final port key, a regular old boot, and finally they returned back to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

Shion: Oh thank GOODNESS, it's DONE. *sighs in relief*
Max: Wow. That… sucked.
Shion: Yeah, it's mostly a filler chapter, but whatever. It's better than no chapter, right?
Kanda: I dunno. This was pretty crappy.
Shion: *sad, goes off to listen to emo music*
Max: *groans* you've offended her! Do you know what this means for us later?
Fang: Doom.
Allen: Horror. Worse than anything Komui could even dream of. That's really saying something.
Shion: *innocent smile* Aww, you are all so nice to me~
Nana/Husky: *facepalm*
Lenalee: Please rate and review!
Shion: And I'll try and update soon~ (Maybe)
