Harry Potter fanfiction

Passersby stared a lot at Hagrid as they walked through the little town to the station. Hagrid knew he was twice as tall as any muggle and they would always at least glance his way. That did not bother him at all, he was entirely preoccupied with other things. It did not seem to matter that he had been here before for the oddities he ended up surrounded by in the muggle world made him both fascinated and curious. Always something new he couldn’t take his eyes off. “See that, Harry? Things these Muggles dream up, eh?” as he looked around and pointed. “Hagrid,” said Harry, as he tried to catch up with him “did you say there are dragons at Gringotts?” ‘Well, so they say,’ said Hagrid. ‘Crikey, I’d like a dragon.’ “You’d like one?” “Wanted one ever since I was a kid – here we go.” They had reached the station. There was a train to London in five minutes time. Hagrid was searching his pockets for “Muggle money”, as he called it. He  a bunch up and gave them a brief glan...

Hagrid found himself in a vast valley with rolling green hills as far as the eye could see. He was exhausted but determined in his mission.

Purpose - Outline We wanted to write a fanfiction using an alternative point of view. Hagrid will be our protagonist. We want to focus on chapter 5, Diagon Alley.
