"Rubeus Hagrid! Back again I see! And with someone new! What joy!" The man said walking out from behind the desk and over to Amelia. He pulled a long tape measure with silver markings out of his pocket.
" Which is your wand arm?" He asked coming face to face with Amelia.
"I'm naturally right-handed but I can use my left rather well if needed."
Mr. Ollivander nodded "Hold out your arm."
He measured her from shoulder to finger, then wrist to elbow, shoulder to floor, knee to armpit, and round her head as well. Amelia wondered why he needed to measure her for a wand Madam Malkin hadn't even measured her this much for her school robes. After a few minutes, Amelia realized Mr. Ollivander was already digging through the shelves and the measuring tape was doing the job by itself. "That's good now," it dropped to the floor in a heap,
"No two wands are the same we need to find the one for you! But then again it is the wand that chose the wizard or in this case witch!"
"Now try this one Miss. Oh, I didn't get your name!" Mr. Ollivander said well handing her the wand. "Amelia Ovis."
"Well, Miss Ovis give that one a try! Unicorn hair ten inches oke very flexible." Amelia flicked the wand but nothing happened. She gained over her shoulder to see Hagrid nod increing her to try again. She flicked it again but nothing. Mr. Ollivander snatched the wand out of her hand.
"No no this won't do try this one olive thirteen itches dragon heartstring." Amelia waved this wand but nothing happened.
"Try again."
Amelia nodded and flicked the wand harder a spark shouted out the end searing the wand Amelia dropped the smoking wand with a yelp of pain.
"I'm so sorry! I don't know what happened!"
"It is ok I can fix it." Mr. Ollivander pulled out his own wand and pointed it at the burnt one lying on the ground he muttered something which to Amelia sounded a lot like the word repair. Many Hours went by wands now staking up on the floor all burnt broken and damaged. Amelia sighed heavily.
"I'll never find a wand. Everyone I touch I brake. Some which I am."
