They stepped out of the fireplace and looked around the shop. It was dimly light and was full of dark colors. "Where are we?" asked Draco, Almudena responded with a shrug. Suddenly they heard a door jingle and hid in a closet. Quickly they slammed the door shut. The closet was small and has little to no space left for them to move.

"Hi" Draco whispered.

"Hi" Almudena whispered back.

"Who do you reckon is out there?" Draco asked.

"I dunno" she shrugged again and peered through the crakc between the two doors. A tall figure stood out there wearing a black suit. It was dirty and full of dust with rips around the back. "You owe me money." it growled.

"Yes, yes I know! I will give it to you soon" said the shop keeper. Out of no where a CRACK was heard, another figure appeared. It was short a plumy and was wearing a perfectly clean pink suit. She turned around and looked around the shop just like they had done.

"She is coming this way" mouthed Draco.

"I know her!" whispered Almudena.

"What?" asked Draco.

"From a trial, it's a long story but she sat next to the Minister." Soon the figure moved past them and back to the shop keeper.

"You have 7 days" threatened Umbridge and with another loud CRACK the two figure disappeared into thin air, the shop keeper whimpered and crawled back into the back of the shop. Quietly the two crept out of the closet and stopped when the floor board squeaked. Tension filled the room as their heads flew towards the back door but nothing emerged.

The ran out of the shop to find themselves in a narrow, dark street. The duo, with panic in their faces, started walking up, trying to find their way back to Diagon Alley. They passed a rather creepy looking old wizard. Almudena sipped her hands into Draco's making him jump. "Is it okay?" she asked looking down at their hands. Draco blushed and nodded.

When the sky brightened they knew they were getting closer to Diagon Alley, after a short walk a bright Diagon Alley came to view, shocked by the sudden change of light Draco blinked while Almudena rushed towards their parents.

"Mom, dad. We saw Umbridge and this strange man with a ripped suit in a shop in that Alley" said Almudena while she pointed at the Alley the had just left, lurking in the darkness was the same man "Well, they said that the shop keeper owed them money and that he had 7 days"

"Oh, that is nothing to worry about! Probably just taxes!" said Lily

"Well, let's get to shopping!" exclaimed Sirius who had just appeared startling Narcissa.

Off they went, stopping by all the shops until the met the Grangers and Weasleys in the book shop. After greeting each other Almudena slipped form the crowd to look at some books at the back of the store. Draco saw her and followed her steps. "Are you okay?" He asked.

"Yeah, well... I mean, that was shady and pretty scary too..." she closed her book and looked at his stormy grey eyes. The color looked like the sky before a storm. It calmed her down. She took a deep breath.

"Well, my mom is probably right. It's just taxes" she waved her hand around like it was nothing and marched back into the group. They where going to get their wands.

Down they went towards Ollivanders, one by one getting their wands after the first or tenth try. Hermione rushed back to her proud parents with her wands in her hand beaming up to them. Almudena awkwardly walked up to the counter. All eyes nailed to her back. "Hi" she muttered while looking down at the floor.

"Hello Almudena" said Ollivander with an mysterious voice. She looked up and saw  wrapped in his long fingers a wand. She took it and waved it around like the other had, a couple of boxes flew out of their slots. She tried the next one and the next and the next until she was on her 7th wand. 

She gently picked it up and warmth filled her insides, she smiled and waved it around. A light turned on. "This is the one!" he exclaimed, Ollivander packed the 10 wands and the parents paid and headed out. As they said the Grangers and the Weasleys goodbye Almudena smiled at Draco. After the Granger and Weasleys were gone the Potters and Malfoy's headed out through the Leaky Cauldron. 

When the cold air hit Almudena hard in the face she wrapped her scarf around her neck and for a split second she saw a pair of dark eyes starting at her.
