Italia walked into the wand shop and heard the door thud behind her. There was only one noise she could hear...silence. She wondered whether the shop was closed or not, she couldn't see anyone. Aprehensively, she shuffled up to the desk and saw a bell. Ever so slowly she raised her hand and touched the bell. It let out a faint tingle. Gaining more courage, she hit the bell harder. Surely someone in the shopo had to have heard that.

This post is 80 words and since you're just beginning, but remember they need to be at least 150, which if your struggling, because I know I did when I first had to meet a big word count we can drop it to 100, which is only 20 more words that this and this entire thing is 20 words+ Just keep working at it we can all always improve!

“I’m coming, I’m coming!” These words the shop keeper said to herself and she was almost positive that who ever was waiting in the front of the wand shop couldn’t hear her from behind all of the shelves. “Well hello there!” she took a step out and wiped her hands on her skirt to clean them off she had been doing some dusting and still the old place looked dirty as ever.
“I bet you’re here to get your wand, yeah?” Dana smiled and swept her long skirts over to the various wooden shelves and slid an rectangular box from it’s dusty hiding place. “Try this one out, it’s made of ebony, and very rare, I have a feeling it might suit you well”
“Ebony is one of my favourite types of wood you know?” She smiled, her wand was made of ebony and it brought back a flood of memories from her Hogwarts days. “You can’t find ebony just anywhere either, you have to really be looking for it” With a light chuckle she shut her mouth so that the young girl was able to test out the wand.

Just as Italia was about to leave the shop and return later, she suddenly saw a lady appear from around the corner. She greeted Italia kindly, and Italia found it quite hard not to stare at the state the shopkeeper was in. 'She must have been cleaning' she thought, considering how dusty and dirty her clothes were.
The shopkeeper then started to search around the shelves for a wand an came back with a rectangular shaped box. She explained that this was an ebony wand, and was very rare.
For the first time in her life, Italia felt special as she tentatively took the slender wand from out of its case. The shopkeeper had stopped talking about the wand, and Italia took this as a cue to test out her wand. Nervously she looked around the room for something to test the ebony wand out on. About to give up again, she suddenly spotted an oddly empty vase perched on one of the shelves. Italia waved her wand at it and a few flowers appeared in the vase with a poof. 'Wow, this wand has chosen me as its owner!' she thought excitedly.
Turning to the kind lady, she gave her some galleons to pay for the wand, thanked her and left the shop, wand in hand.
