I was handing my trunk to another girl as I was being pushed into a carriage that was being drawn by Pegasus. I wave to Fleur as she makes her way over to me. "N'êtes-vous pas impatient d'aller à Poudlard?" (Aren't you excited to go to Hogwarts?) I looked at her with an are you kidding me look.
"Pas vraiment, j'y ai laissé quelques affaires en suspens." (Not really, I left some unfinished business there) I say as I look to Fleur with a sadden look. Fleur gave me a confused look.
"Oublie ça. Vous pourriez être un champion des trois sorciers si vous êtes choisi." (Forget about that. You could be a Triwizard champion if you get chosen.) She says trying to cheer me up. I feel the carriage jolt as it got pulled up into the air as the trip to Hogwarts began.
It was multiple hours later before I felt the carriage came to a stop and hit the ground. I heard people outside the carriage talking. I looked out the window to see all of the Hogwarts students and staff standing there.
Madame Maxime got up and walked out greeting Headmaster Dumbledore. I looked around the crowd. My eyes immediately landing on two read heads and then my eyes travel to the Hufflepuffs and land on Cedric. My heart started to race as the other girls start to get out of the carriage.
The crowds attention had changed to the lake where a ship had emerge. I took this time to slip into the castle with the rest of the girls. For the performance when we entered the Great Hall Fleur and I walk side by side into the hall. Most of the girls turned to sit at the Ravenclaw table, but I can't betray my house so I turned towards the Gryffindor table and sit in between the twins.
I look in between Ron, who looks like he's seen a ghost, and Harry who has a smile spread across his face. The Durmstrang students came in and sat with the Slytherin table. Dumbledore went through his announcement and then showed the Goblet of Fire.
--Flashback--
"When you get to Hogwarts you need to enter into the tournament. You understand me?" He says in the voice he knows frightens me. His grip on my hands tighten and I flinch back from him.
"Yes I understand I must enter, but what if I do not get chosen?" I ask.
His grip tightens more "You will get chosen as long as you enter." He said in a calm voice.
--Flashback End--
I shudder at the thought of my boyfriend. I'm glad to be getting away from him for the school year. When I had first gotten together with him he was the sweetest boy in the world. However in the past year he has changed into someone I have grown to fear or upset. That night the Beauxbaton girls went back to the carriages where we will be sleeping.
The next morning I woke up early so I could put my name into the goblet without many people watching. I tore a piece of parchment and wrote my name, age, and school down. I quickly changed into my school uniform and left the carriage. I went into the great hall where the goblet was sitting with the age line across it.
I walked across it and dropped the paper in the goblet. turning around my eyes land on people entering the hall, I see Cedric walking into the hall. I check to make sure no one was looking and turned into my animagus form and ran out of the hall.
I walked in later in the day and sit next to Hermione as Ron and Harry talk about entering in the Tournament.
"I heard rumor that you put your name in this morning. Is it true?" Ron asked looking at me and then to the goblet.
"Um, yeah, I did." I say giving a small smile.
"Well I'm betting that your going to win then." Harry said as he gave me a big smile.
Just then the twins came running in cheering. "Thank you thank you, well lads we've done it." George says holding up a flask.
"Cooked it up this morning." Fred says also folding up a flask.
"It's not going to work." Hermione said in a sing song voice.
"Oh, yeah? And why's that Granger?" Fred asks.
"You see this? This is an age line. Dumbledore drew it himself." She said as she leaned forward and pointed at the line.
"So?" Fred asks.
"So" Hermione scoffed "a genius like Dumbledore couldn't possibly be fooled by something pathetically dimwitted as an age potion." Hermione says as she rolls her eyes.
"That's why it's so brilliant." George said. "Ready Fred?"
"Ready George?" Fred asked back.
"Bottoms up!" They said together. As they both drank the potion and jumped inside of the age line, and cheer. They threw their names in the flame and do a high-five. The flames start to fire up and then Fred and George are flung across the room.
I put my hand over my mouth trying to hide my laughter. When I look to where the twins landed, I see Cedric, we both make eye contact and I got lost in his storm grey eyes. I give a small smile until I felt an elbow in my side.
I looked away to see Hermione was the one that elbowed me. "What?" I hissed at her.
She points to Fred and George who are being taken out to the Hospital Wing, with their long white hair and beards.
I shook my head and ran after them. As I turn the corner I run straight into someone, I land flat on my ass. I look up at the person I hit to see the new DADA Professor. "I'm so sorry, Professor-" I say as I get cut off by him.
"No, no problem miss?" Moody asked.
"Victoria, Victoria Black." I say as I stand up brushing myself off.
"Black? Daughter of Sirius Black?" He prys.
"Um, yeah." I say with uncertainty. "Um, I really must get going Professor." I say starting to get uncomfortable with the way he looks at me.
"Right, right, yes of course." He says. I quickly turned and ran to the Hospital Wing.
I could feel his eyes on me until I turned the corner and even after that I felt like he was still watching me. Does he know? How could he know only Maxime, Moony, and dad (Sirius) know.
