They then took her to Olivanders to get a wand

That's when she bumped into Cedric Diggory

"Oh I'm sorry" she said as she turned to look the the boy she had quite literally bumped into

"Your American!" He says excitedly

Josefina just looked at him confused

"I'm sorry, that was probably rude, I've just never seen or met anyone outside of Europe. I'm Cedric, Cedric Diggory" he says smiling and putting his hand out

"I'm Josefina Brookes, nice to meet you Cedric" she says smiling and shaking his hand in return

"Are you here for the first time?" she asked him curiously

"Oh no, it's my 3rd year. My dad is just good friends with Mr. Olivander so we're here visiting him. Is it your first time?" He asks

"Yea. I just found out a few hours ago that I'm a witch. I'm not really sure what's going on. The people I came with, Professor McGonagall and Professor Snape, told me to let my wand choose me. But I don't know what that means" she says a little nervously looking down

"Don't worry. I'll be your guide for everything Wizarding!" Cedric responds more then excitedly

He takes her hand and drags her over to where Olivander and his father were standing

"Hi dad, hello Mr. Olivander, this is my new friend Josefina. She's new to the wizarding world and needs a wand" he says to the two men

"Then what are we waiting for. Let's go find you a wand young lady" Olivander says to the new young witch

By now her parents, McGonagall, and Snape had returned with her pet, a pure white owl with bright blue eyes

"Ahh I see we're about to find a wand. This is one of the most important choices a young which or wizard world ever make. Take your time dear" McGonagall said sweetly to the girl

"Alright how about we try this one" Olivander said pulling out a simple brown wand out of its box

Josefina grabs it in her hand and just looks at it

"Well come on, you got to give it a little wave or something" Cedric says beaming

So that she did she flicked her wrist slightly and boxes went flying everywhere

"Ok, not that one. Hmm, how about, yes this one, try this dear" Olivander says handing her another wand

This time when she waves it, picture frames and lamps burst and glass shatters everywhere

Her parents were very religious and when they saw what she was able to do they thought she was handcrafted by the devil himself

They wanted nothing to do with her

"Your a monster! The devil has put you here to punish us! Your soul has been taken over by him! You stay away from us you filthy little monster!" Her parents yelled running out of the store

They left her in Diagon Alley all by herself with only McGonagall, Snape and the 3 people she had met in the shop

McGonagall was shocked at had happened, as was Cedric, his father and the kind Olivander
