Apostrophe Quiz Part 2

Hi I'm Kaly,

I'm going to tell you a story about the Diamonds family. Crystal Diamond was badly mistreated by her step mom, and step dad. They made a rule saying that she can't ask any quesions about what happened to her family.

One day she got a letter saying that it's time for her to go to the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. In the letter it explained the following:
Gringotts- Wizard/Witch bank
Store: Madam Malkins' Robes for All Occasions
First year students will require:
1. Three sets of plain work robes (black)
2. One plain pointed hat (black) for day wear
3. One pair of protective gloves (dragon hide or similar)
4. One winter cloak (black with silver fastenings)
Please note that all pupils clothes should carry name tags.
Flourish and Blotts School Books
All students should have a copy of each of the following:
The Standard Book of Spells (Grade One) By Miranda Goshawk
A History of Magic By Bathilda Bagshot

Other stores: Eeylopes Owl Emporium- buy an owl, cat, rat or toad/ Ollivanders-wands
Apothecany- cauldrons, glass or crystal phials, telescopes, brass scales, potion ingredients, quills, and ink.
Other Equipment:
One wand
One cauldron (pewter, standard size 2)
One set glass or crystal phials
One telescope
One set brass scales
Quills, potion ingredients, and ink.
Hogwarts has school owls. Students may also bring an owl OR a cat OR a rat OR a toad. Its school owls are available to anyone, that needs to use them.

Crystal's step parents brought her to London, then left her with her bank key, her letter and her train ticket. When she went into the Leaky Cauldron the sun's rays were dimmed, and it took a while to get used to.

She then went into the first shop she saw because she had to go to the bathroom. She accidentally went into the men's bathroom, and then she went into the women's bathroom. After she was done she went to Gringots' (the bank) and got enough money to last her the entire year. The money's shiny surface was magnificent. At first she had trouble counting the money and giving out the correct amount, because wizard/witch money is very different from muggles (non-magic people) money. She needed other children her age to help her count out the correct amount.

When she had all her school supplies she, bought a Butterbeers at The Three Broomsticks. Butterbeers' taste was great! On the way out she ran into a long lost friend. They talked for awhile then said their good byes. On the way out she noticed that she had Jesses' wand. She thought to herself "I need to remember to call her when I get to school." When she arrived at the train station, she put all her things into a cart including the owl, then she ran straight through platforms nine and ten. She was finally on her way to Hogwarts.
