Chapter Text
Wayward Gals were best friends ever since they were little. Nothing could separate this group of 4 unique girls.
Sophie Winchester was a warrior. She was strong, independent and brave. She could be quite stubborn sometimes but it was due to her hunter instincts that came with her warrior soul. She always had her hair in a high ponytail and chose to wear comfy tops, jeans and sneakers.
Nilsu Angel was the princess of the group. She was emotional, determined, and protective. She had an amazing voice and could see the good in people. Although she could be naive and too emotional sometimes, she always found a way to get over any struggle she dealt with. She always left her hair down and chose to wear dresses and high heeled shoes or sneakers depending on the circumstances.
Andrea Angel was the writer. She was creative, observant and had a great sense of humor. People always thought she was a weird girl but that was what made her unique. She usually had a casual fashion sense but liked experimenting with all sorts of fashion.
As for Jelena Morningstar, she was blessed with talents she was quite unaware of. She had a demon side but she was not mean. She could be shy sometimes but was always there for her friends if they wanted to talk. She always chose to wear comfy clothes and didn't like wearing dresses. But although she didn't admit it, she would love to wear a red dress even for once in her life.
Although they seem quite normal, these girls had something special as well.
Nilsu and Andrea were angels. Nilsu was destined to be a princess and Andrea was destined to be a special angel.
Sophie was a heavenly warrior.
As for Jelena, she was destined to be a queen.
"Oh, you're finally awake." Sophie said as Nilsu entered the kitchen.
"Princesses need their beauty sleep you know Soph." Jelena teased.
"Ha! You're one to talk Jelly." Nilsu responded "We literally have to scrape you off the bed."
Jelena blushed with embarrassment. Andrea giggled and poured herself some orange juice.
"The strangest thing happened yesterday." Sophie said.
"If you're talking about me going to bed early yesterday, yeah that's the strangest thing ever." Nilsu said.
"No, not that one." Sophie said.
"What is it?" Jelena asked turning her attention from her pancake to Sophie.
"I went to buy some drinks yesterday." Sophie started "A woman shoved me aside and got the last gallon of orange juice. She didn't even apologize."
"What a bitch." Jelena said angrily.
"Yeah but all of a sudden, the gallon exploded." Sophie said "It happened so fast. I was so angry because that woman shoved me aside and got the last orange juice as I was about to reach for it. But then it exploded in her hand. I don't know how it happened."
"Now that's interesting." Nilsu said thoughtfully.
"It really was." Sophie said and started to munch on her pancake.
"Wanna hear something even weirder?" Andrea asked.
"Go ahead." Jelena said.
"A dude walked past me." Andrea said "He made fun of my hair. But then his hair turned bright pink."
"That's not weird at all." Nilsu said "That's hilarious." she continued with a giggle.
They talked a bit more about their weird experiences as they finished their breakfast. Jelena went to the living room to watch TV. Nilsu helped Sophie with the dishes and Andrea went to pick up the mail.
She came back shortly after and hollered "There are letters for all of us!"
"What?" Jelena asked as she turned the TV off and got up from the sofa. Nilsu and Sophie stepped out of the kitchen at the same time.
"I don't know who they're from but they're sent for 4 of us." Andrea said as she gave each girl an envelope.
Nilsu took one look at the envelope and gasped "No way!"
"What is it?" the girls asked in sync.
"I didn't think we would receive our Hogwarts letters." Nilsu said with shock.
"Are you sure?" Sophie asked.
"100 percent." Nilsu responded.
"But I don't understand." Jelena said "If that's true, how come I got accepted as well? I didn't think I was magical enough."
"I wonder the same thing." Andrea said "How did we all get accepted?"
"Let's sit down in the living room." Nilsu said "I'll tell you everything."
The girls walked into the living room and sat down.
"Well?" Sophie said "How did we get accepted?"
"When the 4 founders built Hogwarts Castle, they added a small, locked tower." Nilsu explained "In that tower, they placed a book along with a small, silver inkpot with a faded quill coming out of it. These objects are called the Book of Admittance and the Quill of Acceptance. These are the objects that chooses the students."
"How do they work?" Andrea asked.
"At the exact moment a child shows a sign of magic, the quill rises up and attempts to write the child's name in the book." Nilsu responded. "However, sometimes the book can snap shut and refuse the quill. Because the book thinks the magic is not enough."
"I guess the book wouldn't want my name to be written." Jelena said with a deep frown.
"Don't say that." Sophie said putting a comforting arm around her friend. "You're just as special as all of us."
"But it's possible." Jelena said sadly. "It has to be a mistake."
"No it's true." Nilsu said "Because the book and the quill never makes a mistake."
"See Jelena?" Andrea said happily "You are magical enough to come with us."
"I guess I really am." Jelena said and smiled.
The next day, Wayward Gals went out to get their supplies.
"Well, here's the problem." Sophie said after they got off the train. "We don't have any money to pay for all this."
"Of course we have money." Andrea said "Don't be silly."
"How do you know?" Jelena asked as they walked on the street.
"I found an extra envelope which had 4 golden keys in it." Andrea responded.
"But I thought we only receive the letter." Jelena said.
"Well, that's true." Nilsu said "But these keys are sent from Heaven."
"Awesome." Sophie said.
"Where do we go next?" Jelena asked.
"This way." Andrea said and led the girls to an old building. "Here it is. The Leaky Cauldron."
"Wonder why it's called this name." Sophie said.
"Maybe because there are leaky cauldrons everywhere." Nilsu teased and the girls laughed as they entered the building.
"Awww, we were wrong." Andrea whispered with a frown. "There are no leaky cauldrons around."
"On the bright side, we can still joke about it." Sophie said.
"Yeah." Andrea said and the girls stopped in front of the brick wall behind the building. "This is the gateway."
She tapped on a brick and the wall opened a gate to a busy alleyway.
"Wayward Gals, welcome to Diagon Alley." she said and the girls decided to look around before getting down to business.
"I'm really excited to get the books." Nilsu said excitedly.
"Of course you are." Andrea said. "I wanna get the potion ingredients. I wanna brew potions."
"I'm excited about getting my wand." Jelena said.
"Same here." Sophie agreed. "I bet I'm gonna look badass with the wand in my hand."
"You sure will." Nilsu said "But first, let's see how much our budget is."
She led the girls to a huge white building and the goblin next to the doors bowed to them.
"Is it just me or did you girls get creeped out by that goblin as well?" Jelena asked quietly as the girls passed through a second set of gates with goblins bowing on both sides.
"Creeped out? Not quite." Sophie responded "But you're right. That goblin didn't look too friendly to me."
"Before being a bank for wizards, Gringotts was a goblin bank." Nilsu explained shortly "And goblins are quite clever creatures. But do be careful though. Because they're quite hard to deal with when it comes to money."
"Then I guess now we know who we shouldn't owe any money to." Andrea teased and Jelena giggled.
"Why are all the goblins staring at us by the way?" Sophie asked quietly, pointing her head to the goblins staring at them.
"You'll find out soon." Nilsu said and walked towards an available counter. She looked at the goblin behind it and said "We wish to enter our vaults."
"Do you have your keys?" the goblin asked and Nilsu gave the key envelope.
"Very well." the goblin said after looking at the keys "Follow me."
He led the girls through a door and into a minecart. It was a long way down and seemed like it was bottomless. After a long way, they stopped in front of a huge vault.
"Who is the lucky owner?" Sophie asked with slight sarcasm in her voice.
Her question was answered when the door was unlocked. The vault was filled with several spears on the walls, some ancient-looking weapons around the vault and a few money piles.
"Guess you're the lucky owner." Andrea said "A vault for a true warrior."
Sophie walked into the vault and filled her bag with some money. "I didn't know I was this rich."
"Save some of that excitement for our vaults as well." Nilsu said "I wonder how our vaults look like."
"Bet your vault will be filled with diamonds." Sophie teased as she walked out of the vault after filling up her purse.
"We'll see." Nilsu said and they were back in the minecart to go to the next vault.
After another long journey, they stopped again.
"Any guesses?" Sophie asked.
"Probably not my vault." Jelena said with a sad smile.
When the vault door was unlocked, the girls were amazed by what they saw inside. There was an angel statue sitting on a throne and holding a long candy cane. Around the statue, there were money piles and some old-looking books.
"Ooooh, my vault." Andrea said with a smug look on her face and filled her purse with money.
"Guess it's me and Jelena left now." Nilsu said after Andrea exited her vault.
After another long journey, they stopped for the third time.
"I hope it's your vault." Nilsu said looking at Jelena.
"Could be." Jelena said looking hopeful.
When the vault door was unlocked, the girls were fascinated by how it looked. There were angel statues around, some holding wands and others reaching their hands out as if holding a powerball. A few of them had silver and golden tiaras on their heads and one wore a diamond tiara. There were golden goblets, various wands and crown jewels scattered around the vault and huge massive money piles were shining in the corners.
"This must be your vault." Jelena said looking at Nilsu.
"Love the ambiance but it's too fancy for my liking." Nilsu said looking as if she didn't care about her massive fortune.
"Well, all of you are rich but I probably don't even have money even if I have a vault." Jelena said.
"Well, most of these are not really all that special." Nilsu said "Old fashioned crown jewels, wands you can't even move, statues of angels whose names I don't know. A vault fit for a princess but not this princess." she continued pointing at herself. She filled her purse and exited quickly.
"I knew you wouldn't really like the fancy vault." Jelena said "Maybe my not-so-fancy vault will be a breath of fresh air for you."
"Probably." Nilsu said.
And after another journey, they stopped in front of the final vault.
"Let's see how not-so-fancy this one looks." Andrea said waiting for the vault door to be unlocked.
But as soon as the door was open, the girls were in for a big shock.
The entire vault had golden columns. There were golden statues of angels and demons and there was a crown on the head of an angel statue sitting on a throne.
"I didn't know you were this rich, Jelly." Sophie said looking at the money piles scattered around.
"I didn't know either." Jelena said with shock. She didn't know how to react. She almost dropped her purse. Andrea caught it and helped Jelena with filling it.
"Richer than the princess." Sophie said giggling.
"A vault fit for a queen." Nilsu said.
"I didn't know I had this fortune." Jelena said exiting the vault.
"Now I see why the goblins were interested." Sophie said "Our vaults are important."
"Especially because we have heavenly blood." Nilsu added.
"Now let's see what we need." Andrea said checking her list "First thing we need is the uniform."
"Then we'd better get that first." Nilsu said "You know how much I hate shopping for clothes. It's boring."
"At least you and Andrea can adjust it with your angel powers." Sophie said "Be bloody grateful for that."
"Yeah, quit complaining about it Nilly." Jelena said agreeing with Sophie.
Having to accept the defeat, Nilsu shrugged. "Okay, fine. But the sooner we get the uniform the better."
"You're right about that one." Andrea said and the girls entered the shop named Madam Malkin's Robes for All Occasions.
Madam Malkin greeted the girls and immediately started to measure them.
"Looks like she understood how much you hate shopping for clothes." Andrea teased looking at Nilsu.
"At least she's better and quicker than the tailors I had the misfortune of going to." Nilsu responded "All of them just covered my dresses in pins and didn't even measure me right."
"Oh, so that's why you use your angel power to adjust your clothes." Jelena said "I see you Nilly."
"Duh." Nilsu said "It's better that way."
After buying the robes, the girls went to Flourish and Blotts.
"Now that's what I call Heaven." Nilsu said looking amused.
"Look at all these books." Andrea said pointing at a few tiny books "I wonder how anyone can read them. They're almost the same size as a stamp."
"It's not too complicated if you think about it." Nilsu said "Just like the textbooks we had back when we went to Heaven School."
"Oh, yeah I remember them." Andrea said excitedly. "You could squeeze them like a sponge to carry around easier."
"Let's see if we will enjoy these ones too." Sophie said "Some of the books on the list seems quite interesting."
Buying the books took a bit longer than buying the robes due to Nilsu and Andrea buying a few additional books for their angel studies. Andrea bought the potion ingredients while Sophie bought the potion bottles, Nilsu bought the parchments and ink and Jelena bought the other supplies.
They checked their lists again when they met up.
"And finally, time to buy our wands." Sophie said.
"Finally." Jelena said looking a little exhausted from all the shopping.
"Besides the wand, the list also says we can bring an owl, a cat or a toad if we want." Andrea said.
"Let's think about it after buying the wands." Nilsu said and the girls entered Ollivanders.
The shop was quiet. Too quiet as if a spell was cast to drown out all the noise outside.
"Seems eerie." Jelena said looking at the boxes all around the shop.
"Good afternoon." a voice said. The girls jumped.
In the dim light of the shop was standing an old man.
"Hello." the man said "Garrick Ollivander is my name."
"Pleasure to meet you." Nilsu said.
"Here to receive your first wand, yes?" Ollivander asked.
"Correct." Sophie answered.
"Let's start with your wand then." Mr. Ollivander said and pulled a box out of a shelf. He opened the box and handed Sophie a wand "Blackthorn, 12 inches, dragon heartstring."
Sophie took the wand and felt a warm feeling as her hand made contact with it. She waved the wand and a cloud of silver glitter came out. "I think it likes me."
"Blackthorn has the reputation of being best suited to a warrior." Mr. Ollivander said. "A very unusual wand wood. But it seems to be the perfect fit for your magical abilities."
"Exactly." Sophie said "Thank you so much."
"It really does match her." Andrea said "Can't wait to see which wand chooses me."
"I think this one will be the ideal wand for you." Mr. Ollivander said giving Andrea another wand "Dogwood, 10 inches, unicorn hair."
Andrea took the wand and waved it. As soon as she did that, she felt the wand tickling her hand with a warm feeling. A handful of confetti came out of the wand. "It's like having a funny friend 24/7."
"Dogwood has a playful nature and it seems to match your personality." Mr. Ollivaner said.
"I'm pretty sure I will enjoy doing magic with it." Andrea said happily.
"Quite playful in my opinion." Nilsu said giggling.
"Agreed." Jelena said "My turn."
"I believe this wand will suit you the best." Mr. Ollivander said giving Jelena a wand "Cypress, 12 inches, phoenix feather."
"I hope so." Jelena said taking the wand. She started to feel the wand getting used to her and waved it. Colorful sparks shot out of the wand and Jelena smiled "This is perfect."
"Fitting for nobility." Mr. Ollivander said "It's an honor to be the owner of a wand with this wood."
"I don't know what to say." Jelena said "But I love how this wand chose me."
"Wonder what my wand will be." Nilsu said "I'm quite unsure about which wand might choose me."
Mr. Ollivander reached for a box on an upper shelf in a far right corner and pulled it out. He opened the box and handed the wand to Nilsu "Acacia, 11 inches, phoenix feather, nice and supple."
Nilsu held the wand and felt the warm feeling instantly. She waved the wand and a beam of golden light came out. "The perfect match."
"Acacia wands are known to be tricky ones." Mr. Ollivander said "They show their true potenials only to the most gifted ones."
"I guess I'm gifted enough for this wand to choose me." Nilsu said "This is amazing."
"I believe your wands will have brilliant accomplishments." Mr. Ollivander said "So many brilliant accomplishments."
"We finally got everything." Sophie said after the girls left the shop.
"Now we can think about which pet we should bring with us." Andrea said.
"I don't know about you gals but I'll bring an owl." Nilsu said.
"Not surprising." Sophie said "Because you're like an owl."
"I was thinking you would bring a cat." Nilsu said "A yellow cat having the same shade as your hair. Would be like your cat version."
"Ha ha very funny Nilly." Sophie said "I'll bring an owl too."
"Same here." Andrea said "Way better than having a toad. I don't wanna be seen even dead with it."
"You should talk." Jelena said "I would be the laughing stock."
"So are we all getting owls?" Nilsu asked.
"Indeed we are." Jelena responded and the girls bought their owls.
"I'm gonna call my owl Ivy." Nilsu said happily.
"I'll call mine Loki." Andrea said giggling.
"My owl's name will be Negan." Sophie said. "He's kinda wild."
"And my owl's name is going to be Lulu." Jelena said.
"Cool." Sophie said. "I think we will have a great time when we go to Hogwarts."
"I sure hope so." Nilsu said. "Can you believe it? We all get to go together and we will have a great time."
"I'm so happy that we all get to go there." Jelena said.
"Me too." Andrea said. "This is gonna be so much fun."
