Jo couldn't believe it! Today was the day she was supposed to go with Daddy to get her school supplies, but work called him away on the last minute. But instead of canceling the trip, he just let her go alone! Well, not alone alone. Her house elf, Pokey, was with her. Which was good. She didn't want to carry all those heavy books around. But she didn't expect all these people. There were so many of them. So. many. Just walking down the street she felt she had seen more people at one time than she had her entire life. This was nothing like the safety of the Bryan manor.
She found that she very much detested being around all these people getting in her personal space. She wanted to scream. But even that felt like it was going to get drowned out by the sheer density of the crowd. So before she started getting fitted for robes or buying books, she felt she deserved a treat. A reward for not setting everybody in the area on fire. But with her mind lost in thoughts of escape and sweet treats, she collided right into an unsuspecting person. Another girl, about her age. "Watch where you are going! You are going to dirty my robes!" she exclaimed indignantly. Her eyes narrowed at the other girl as she waited for an apology.

Dianna already had a long day. From finishing her favorite book not once but five times she was bored. It have been awhile since she had went out and did something. She was used to the crowd and it reminded her about home so getting through the crowd wasn't all that hard. She likes to think she had mad skilled going between people and underneath with out bumping into or knocking over anyone. She was currently counting how many people she could dodge with getting herself hurt. But the game started to get boring quicker than she thought and sighed.
"A sundae would be nice." She mumbled to herself as she passed people ducking and swirling around different people. It was quite amusing to Dianna having to duck and roll just to get ice-cream. It was fun while it lasted. She looked up to see a girl her age walking not paying attention. "Watch out!" She yelled t it was drowned out by the crowd. She tried to move out the way but was shoved right into the girl. "Watch where you are going! You are going to dirty my robes!" Dianna looked up at the girl trying to stand up. "Hey hey no need to yell." She had her hand up in a surrendering move. "Plus it wasn't my fault you weren't paying attention."

"Hey hey no need to yell." Jo huffed. That was not an apology. Daddy always said to never take anything less than what you asked for. Besides, there was indeed a reason to yell. This girl got directly in her way. She was nearly taken off of her feet! How would father have handled this situation? It was her first time having to ask that without seeing it happen first hand. "Plus it wasn't my fault you weren't paying attention." Her lips curled into a frown.
"It is indeed your fault! Had you have have been paying attention, this would not have happened. If I scuffed my shoes, I am telling my father!" She threatened. That always worked at home. The people coming and going would break their own legs if it meant appeasing him. So clearly, all these people here in the street would have even more of a reaction. "Is it too much to ask that I have a little room to walk? I have a lot of shopping to do today. That was a very poor apology, I should add. I will let you try again" with that the young witch folded her arms. It made her feel powerful when Pokey begged, it must be even more so when a real person does it.

"It is indeed your fault! Had you have have been paying attention, this would not have happened. If I scuffed my shoes, I am telling my father!" the young girl threatened Dianna. She scoffed at her statement. What does her dad have to do with anything? she thought before getting yelled at again. Which she wasn't in the mood for this. She crossed her arms trying to hold in her anger for she didn't want to upset the princess here. "Is it too much to ask that I have a little room to walk? I have a lot of shopping to do today. That was a very poor apology, I should add. I will let you try again"
Apologize? She would have if it wasn't her fault. Dianna was at the end of her rope. "Why would I apologize to you? I was fully aware. You were the one with you head in the clouds princess. Also telling your dad doesn't bother me. Go ahead and cry to your father." She sneered. "I'll give you an apology when you learn some respect." Her arms now at her side making a fist. She wasn't going to hit her no. It was against the Michi family to fight carelessly. Though they never said anything about scarying them a little.

The sight of Dianna's clinched fist caused Jo to hesitate for a second. She dropped her arms and instinctively took a step back. A year or so ago, when she was at a Quidditch game with her dad, an irish girl decked her in the face for letting her know how ghastly her braces looked. It bled for what felt like ages, and father had to use a spell to fix it. She didn't want that to happen again. But she couldn't back down. Not on the first day she was trusted to be out alone.
"Y-you should not hit me" She half-whimpered before catching herself. Her face quickly changed to reflect her embarrassment with herself. Father would not be proud of that display. In an attempt to save face, she straightened her back to try and make her small frame seem as intimidating and powerful as possible. "If you were fully aware, then you would have moved out of my way. This is the fact of the matter. And I will have you know, my father is on his own chocolate frog card" she stated, very matter-of-factly. People were supposed to respect things such as money and power, weren't they? She made a mental note to try and get this girl's name. She was willing to be a galleon she was raised by muggles.

Dianna heard the whimpered and smirked. But as fast as it came as fast as it left. "If you were fully aware, then you would have moved out of my way. This is the fact of the matter. And I will have you know, my father is on his own chocolate frog card" She didn't want to be bothered by her anymore. "Okay look here princess," She sighed putting her hands on her hips looking at the sky before looking dead at her "I didn't want trouble and I don't care about your father being on a card." She gave her a flat look. "I did try to move but as you can see there aren't much space here." She said pointing to the sidewalk.
"Plus if I wanted to hit you, you would have been on the floor by now." She put one of her hand on her heart. "I'm not going to apologize. No I'm going to get me some Ice-cream." Maybe that would cool me down. She laughed at her pun forgetting about the girl in front of her for a moment. "I don't apologize to spoil brats like you. I can see this is the first time you are out here." She assumed. "If you have been before than you would have known that it's always busy in this street and there is no such thing for room princess. Swirl, duck and spin. That's how you get by." She said looking at the girl once more.
"Now i'm going to leave. telling by your robe you are getting ready for Hogwarts. Hmm..Be careful not everyone is nice like me there." She warned her smirking. "Buh Bye." She left ducking into the crowd. I know for a fact i'll see her at that school , lets just hope she would be less bratty. She thought making her way to the Ice-cream shop.

"Plus if I wanted to hit you, you would have been on the floor by now." Jo looked down at the ground. She didn't like being down there. It was terribly dirty. Those clothes were very expensive. Dirtying her new robes was not a threat she appreciated. But to top it all off, the girl kept going. "I'm not going to apologize. No I'm going to get me some Ice-cream." And then she laughed. Laughed! That settled it. Muggle born. Had to be. She wasn't going to be lectured about how her world worked by somebody who should consider herself lucky to be here.
"Buh Bye." That clearly felt like a taunt, but before Jo could respond the girl was walking off. The red head tried to chase after her, but it was getting hard to squeeze through the crowd. This would no due. Not at all. She needed to know her name. "Do you know who I am?! What is your name?" she called out, getting more and more flustered by her inability to keep up. "You get back here and answer me you...you...Mudblood!" she wasn't entirely sure of the implication of that word, she had just heard it used by some of father's employees. Judging by the reactions of some of the people who overheard, she guessed she picked a powerful word to throw out.

I'm Just going to keep going...Oh goodness Jo really don't know what she got into....
"You get back here and answer me you...you...Mudblood!" Dianna stop short walking hearing the words come out her mouth. She have been called Powerless Michi, Michi the Muggle, And song were made about her but no I mean NO one ever called her a Mudblood. Her eye twitched and she turned around slowly towards her. Fully turned around she glared at the girl with hate. The tension was so thick you had to use an ax to cut through. [i} you...Mudblood!"[/i] Her words echoed in her head. That's when she snapped.
Her eye's were trained on the girl never losing contact. Her easy going smiled turned into a deadly scowl. "Mudblood? Do I look like a muggle to you?" She sneered. Her fist clenched and face red with anger. She was to blinded in anger to notice the sudden amount of flowers that circled the two, blocking anyone outside the wall to see. "You think that I Just got lucky? huh? My parents may not be Oh so famous princess, but they both are a witch and a wizard."
Memories of her past of being called a muggle flew threw her mind which only mad her more angry. "Look here BRAT!" She spit out brat walking closer to the Ravenclaw. "I advise you to chose you words carefully or thing won't be so pretty." At the moment she would do anything to shut the little girl up she didn't want to remember her past, just start over.

Jo blinked in confusion a few times. The implications and meanings of the insult she used weren't exactly clicking together in her head, so the other girl's whole outburst felt a little odd. "You are clearly not a muggle, don't be daft" Of course she wasn't a muggle. A muggle wouldn't be standing here in Diagon Alley.
"You think that I Just got lucky? huh? My parents may not be Oh so famous princess, but they both are a witch and a wizard." She huffed a little. She was indeed lucky. Lucky that her father wasn't here to hear her rude words. He would have a thing or two to say. Jo very much hated yelling herself. She never felt she was any good at it.
"I advise you to chose you words carefully or thing won't be so pretty."
Suddenly, she was walking closer. Jo was getting nervous. This girl was very loud and animated. She was unpredictable. Despite her best efforts to look strong, her hands betrayed her and started shaking. She was starting to look more like a scared rabbit than a proud daughter of Bryan. "G-g-go ahead, do your worst. Any harm you do to m-m-me will be brought back onto your house tenfold" she threatened shakily swallowed. "I am not afraid" she then tightly closed her eyes and tried to prepare for the worst.

"G-g-go ahead, do your worst. Any harm you do to m-m-me will be brought back onto your house tenfold" She knew she had frightened the little girl and that was all she needed to do. "I am not afraid" She smirked at her calming herself down. She knew Slytherins had a bad reputation and didn't want to be the cause of another uproar. "Funny because that's not what it looks like." She took a step back the wall of flowers falling down.
"Also you are not worth me getting in to trouble. I rather fight with a goblin than you." She scoffed at her. She smirked once more. "I think we could have been friends if you weren't such a brat. But that is out of the picture now isn't?"
"I don't understand how you can walk around like you own the place. look here hun your dad isn't going to always be here to fight your battles." She said seriously all trace of smugness leaving her face. She didn't notice the crowd that started to form around them. "Like I said you should be careful who you mess with."
This time she sneered. "Not everything belongs to you so get use to it. Now you can run to your daddy or you can fight for yourself other than the second option your useless." She shrugged with a mischievous smile.
