Part 8 – The Wizarding World – Small Town Style
The bell ran cheerfully as Harry pushed open the door to the wizarding shop, but he stopped dead in his track just inside of the door, causing Severus to run into his back.
“Potter, what are you, a wall. Move!” Severus growled looking around Harry to see what had held him up. As usually with any Potions store, disgusting ingredients floated in embalming solutions and were proudly displayed for purchase. What had Harry’s attention was the small corpse of a Jabne demon, which remarkably looked human, until you examined the back that had small horns protruding from it.
“Jeez Sev, couldn’t they find anything more disgusting to put right in front of the door,” Harry complained.
“It’s a cauldron and potion supply store, what else would you expect them to display… flowers,” sneered Severus, “Really Potter, I thought you actually had a brain in that thick skull of yours.”
“Oh stop being such a snarky bastard and find the storekeeper. I want to get your books before you start getting even testier.”
“If I may be of assistance,” croaked a small man that moved from behind a large dusty shelf.
Severus and Harry both turned towards the small man, Harry noticed that the man’s fingers, much like Severus’, were stained with potions.
“Yes, we are visitors to your town and was told that there was a small wizarding community within the area. Might I inquire as to how we may access your shopping areas,” Severus said diplomatically, fighting to keep the sneer down from his face as he recognized the smaller man.
“Professor Snape,” exclaimed the man, “It is an honor to have you visit my humble shop.” Harry looked confused as watched the little man fawned over his companion. Snape sneered at his expression as he turned back to the man.
“Mister Divin, your platitudes are, as always, never welcome. Answer the question,” Snape snarled. Harry watched as the other man, Divin he took for the name, ignored Severus’ attitude and smiled brightly back at them.
“Of course, Professor Snape, always a pleasure to help a man of your august standing. If you would please follow me, I will open the portal to Obliq Lane.”
Harry followed Severus and Mister Divin towards the back of the shop, watching as the man opened a small door.
Leaning forward, he brought his lips to Severus’ ear and whispered, “An acquaintance of yours, hummm.” Snickering slightly when Severus glared heatedly at him, as he walked through the doorway and into a small storage room.
Divin reach the small door and pulled out his wand. He tapped the door handle three times, while muttering under his breath. “There you go, Professor Snape Sir, if you’ll just turn the handle counter-clockwise you’ll have access to Obliq Lane. And may I also say it is an honor to have you visiting my shop.”
The little man practically beamed his delight while Severus scowled and opened the door. Harry followed quietly behind the annoyed man, jauntily saluting the man as the door slammed shut behind them.
Harry looked wide-eyed around the bustling Lane, no unlike the time long ago when he first saw Diagon Alley. “Man Severus, I didn’t think there was anyplace else that could be so much like Diagon Alley.”
Severus shot a disdainful glare back over his shoulder, “What Potter, do you think that England has the only market on wizardry.”
“That’s not what I meant, Severus,” Harry replied, just stopping short of sticking his tongue out at the cranky Potion Master. “I mean, I have never seen any other place like this. I have only been to Diagon Alley and Hogsmeade.”
“Be that as it may, Potter, there are many wizarding communities throughout the world and nearly all of them have areas such as these. Now if you are finished gawking, I would like to finish my shopping.”
