Skylar hums happily as she walks down Diagon Alley. Beside her was Mika, who she had been happily chatting away with for the better half of the hour. Her mother, Charlotte, lingers behind them as they walked, carrying a large bag of Honeydukes sweets.

Skylar and Mika are on a very important mission today, and that is to shop for their spring ball outfits. With the Wonder Waltz approaching so soon, they must find one that will be perfect for the occasion. After discussing for a long time, Sky and Mika had decided to make a trip to Madam Malkin. Skylar would be Alice and Mika the Mad Hatter. Perhaps if they have time, they could even have a tea party at the ball.

As the girls step through the door, a little bell above them jingles. Skylar and Mika were immediately met with colors among colors of clothes. Wasting no time, Sky immediately dives into searching for a fitting blue dress. Her eyes skim through the rows of racks that are in the shop, slightly overwhelmed by the sheer amount of dresses present. Her mother follows close behind, helping Skylar with her search.

Skylar mutters to herself as she weaves through the shop, her eyes latching on anything blue. She wonders how Mika is doing with her own search. She spots a few pretty good suits that could fit her friend and makes a mental note to tell Mika later. Skylar was busy glancing at other outfits when her eyes catch something interesting. She reaches out to grab a dress that was well hidden behind the others. She gasps with delight when she finds that the dress is the near perfect shade of blue. All she would have to do is make the other accessories, but the dress itself already screams 'Alice in the Wonderland.'

Making her way back to her mom and Mika, Skylar holds on to the dress tight. Wait till Mika sees what I found!

I decided that, oficially, Charlotte was the best person to ever exist.

She took us both Sky and me to Diagon Alley, leaving our dads behind, doing... dad things. I don't know. Probably discussing about ugly mustaches and bad fashion choices. But oh well. Man.

Once we entered Madame Malkin's, Sky and her mom dissappeared after inmediately.

And memories came into me.

A few months ago, my dad stayed in the car while I walked in here, buying my first robes. Alone. Scared. Nervous. Lost.

Now, it was Sky and her mom who came with me. For the ball.

I smiled at the thought. It was almost... comforting.

My eyes searched for something, anything, that looked out of place. Nonsense. If it didn't fit, it fit on me. The Mad Hatter.

Eureka. Between some hanging clothes, I noticed a maroon color. I reached for it and found a beautiful jacket. Perfect.

It looked like it fit me, too. I kept searching and found a beige skirt, socks and The Hat.

A beautiful, red hat with some cards on its lace. Perfect.

Oh, just wait until Sky sees it. Now I only had to find the shirt and the shoes. Good thing I had enough money for all of this.

"I was good. I was really good."

Skylar wanders through the various clothing racks until she makes way to her mom. Her mom lights up when she sees her, giving Skylar a warm smile.

"Find what you wanted?"

"Yep! This dress is the perfect shade, and all I need is to find accessories. I also saw a few suits that would fit Mika quite nicely." Skylar chirps happily. Her mom was about to say something when suddenly she stops. Skylar tilts her head curiously as her mother pulls out the two-way mirror her parents use to communicate.

"Give me a minute, dear. I have to answer this." Charlotte says as she excuses herself. Skylar watches as her mom disappears into a clothing rack, her heated voice rising.

"What do you mean he's the husband!?"

"That's exactly what I mean. How many meanings can it possibly have? John is the..."

Skylar strains to hear the rest of the conversation. John? Is that not Mika's dad? Skylar frowns in confusion at the conversation. What are her parents talking about?

However, something else grabs her attention as she notices a flash of green. There, behind a few other expensive looking dresses, was a particularly dapper emerald suit. Skylar's eyes immediately spark with delight as she grabs the garment, her mind temporarily forgetting her parents' conversation.

Now with a suit and dress in her arms, Skylar scans the store to find her friend. She hums a chipper little tune as she weaves through the racks, her eyes searching for a familiar head of brown hair. However, Skylar stops in her tracks as a cold shiver creeps up her back.

Turning, she sees a woman with short blond hair. The lady had a... dark, foreboding presence around her. Dark eye shadow and black eyeliner frame her eyes, with blood red lipstick matching the rest of her attire. Her eyes were cold, calculating as she appears to be observing the store. When Skylar catches the lady's eyes, a weird sense of deja vu hits her. Has she seen this woman before? Was she being watched?

Then she smiled. A wicked grin splits the lady's face as she looks at Skylar. Skylar's eyes widen at her reaction and quickly disappears behind the nearest clothing rack she can find. Who the bloody hell was that?

That was not a kind smile, no, definitely not. Skylar quickly walks through the rows, looking behind her shoulder every now and then. Finally, she spots Mika in a corner, her hand holding a hat.

Skylar immediately breathes out a sigh of relief as she walks up to her friend. "Mika, you would not believe what just happened. Some weird, creepy lady was staring at me. We like made eye contact and she smiled. Who in the bloody hell smiles at a child they'd been stalking?"

Skylar shudders as she remembers the wicked gleam in the lady's eyes. "On a side note though, look at this suit I found! It looks like it would fit you quite well!"

I smiled when I heard her.

"Sky! Look at-"

'Mika, you would not believe what just happened. Some weird, creepy lady was staring at me. We like made eye contact and she smiled. Who in the bloody hell smiles at a child they'd been stalking?'

Oh. Wait, what?

I turned my head so fast I heard something crack on my neck, momentarily forgetting about the hat and the suit and the ball.

Who the hell was stalking Sky? Why?


"Who?"I asked her, still trying to find the creepy lady. I didn't. But at least I knew we had to be a bit more careful now. What if she wanted to kidnap us? Dad told me to never talk to strangers. My mind ran with a thousand memories per second until Sky talked again.

'On a side note though, look at this suit I found! It looks like it would fit you quite well!'

And I forgot about the lady. My head snapped back to its place, my eyes opening with surprise.


"Oh, my- It's gorgeous, thanks! Yeah, It looks like it suits me... I found the hat!" I showed it to her with something like pride on my eyes.

Until I noticed someone's absence.


"By the way, where's your mom?" My head started spinning again, looking for the woman, and I didn't notice how a slight American accent escaped me.

It just happened every time I got so in confidence to talk with someone so much that my dad's accent slipped out from me. it was slight, almost unnoticeable until you're paying attention. Thanks dad, I guess, for the summers at Brooklyn and Scotland with my uncles. You take them out of the city, but you can't take the city out of them.

"I was good. I was really good."

x "By the way, where's your mom?"

Huh. That is a great question. Skylar swivels around, her eyes searching for her mother's blond hair. Skylar furrows her brows as her mom was no where to be seen. She turns back to Mika and gives her a little shrug.

"I do not know. We were about to find you when my dad suddenly contacted her. She then just disappeared into a coat rack. It did concern me though because she sounded really panicked." Skylar recalls to her friend. But alas, there is little she can do.

"How about we just continue shopping then while we wait for her?"

With that suggestion, Skylar and Mika continue their little shopping trip throughout the store. Skylar managed to find a nice pair of black Mary Jane shoes similar to what Alice would have worn, and they fit her quite snugly. She was, however, unable to find a fitting bow to match. Oh well, she would have to check her wardrobe later. She had this whole bow phase when she was seven, so there should be plenty to choose from.

As the girls were wrapping up, Skylar's mom finally makes an appearance. "Hello there, kiddos! Sorry about that, but we may have to go now. Are you both done with your shopping?" Charlotte asks lightly. However, Skylar can hear the underlying urgency in her voice.

After both her and Mika gave a nod, her mom quickly took the garments from their arms and went to go check out. Skylar shares a look with her friend, knowing something was up. However, they did no get much time to ponder it before they were ushered out of the shop, with a big bag of clothes in tow.

Skylar walks beside Mika as they trail behind Charlotte, an unsettling feeling tingling down her spine. Looking over her shoulder, Skylar sees a familiar pair of cold eyes staring back. Quickly grabbing Mika's hand, Skylar points at the lady.

"There! That's the lady who was staring at me!" The lady, after seeing how she was noticed, merely smiles. She offers the pair a sarcastic little wave, a cruel gleam in her eyes.

"Mom! Mom look!" Skylar calls to her mother, her voice wavering slightly. However, when she turns back to the shop, the lady was gone.

"Something wrong, dear?" Her mom asked. Skylar looks at Mika for confirmation that she was not hallucinating. Would her mom believe her if she told her?

"It's... it's nothing. I just though I saw something." Skylar mutters. Her mom turns away again and begins walking back to the Leaky Cauldron. Skylar shakes off her unsteadiness and follows, gripping Mika's hand tighter.

As time passed with a small stop at the ice cream parlor, Sky and Mika soon forgot about the whole ordeal again and were fixated on a more pressing matter — the Spring Ball. However, this little encounter may be revisited much, much later.
