The second Scamander

Chapter thirteen: The champions

The rest of the day went on by talking to other people from other schools and talking about who we thought would be chosen.

People from Durmstrang came over to me and said how they were impressed by me entering the tournament and that they hoped I would get it. I hoped to get chosen as well but some part of me didn't.

Because I knew what I had to do if I got picked. Tomorrow came too fast for my liking. Luckily I got to throw the first pillow today and was very happy about that.

We made our way to the great hall and found everybody sitting and waiting to see who the champions would be. Not long after we had gotten there they rolled the goblet in.

"The Beauxbatons champions are.... Fleur Delacour" he started saying I zoned out on the other two girls' names. I saw that the ones who didn't get picked started crying.

"The Durmstrang champions are..... Viktor Krum" again I zoned out. I think I remember some boy named Alex getting the other spot or something.

"And finally for the Hogwart champions. First, we have...... George Weasley" I clapped and shouted as well as my other friends and the whole Gryffindor house.

At Least one from our little group made it.

"The second champion is..... Fred Weasely" I think I clapped even harder this time. It didn't take long before the last parchment flew out.

I could feel myself get worried. Fred and George were still standing next to me in case I got the spot so we could walk up together.

"And the final champion is.... Evie Lupin" Right after he said it all I could hear were claps and cheers as well as Fred and George dragging me up from my seat and to where the other champions were.

When we were all in the backroom we got information on everything and so on. "May I borrow Evie for a second" Dumbledor asked nicely.

nodded and followed it to the one corner of the room. "Remus has informed me on what you agreed on and I hope you will be ready to tell everybody tomorrow at dinner," He asked me.

I simply nodded. I was about to ask about my other request before he beat me to it.

"And I will also see what I can make of your wish Miss. Scamander" I smiled up at him and headed back to my team. We began walking towards the common room and when we got in there it was full-on party time.

Everybody was so happy that they had gotten all three champions from their house. The party continued until McGonagall had to tell us off and force us to bed.

However, I could not sleep. I was too focused on what would happen at dinner that day.

I waited to see that the twins had fallen asleep before taking out my trunk and headed down to my creatures. They have always helped me clear my head if I have a lot on my mind.

I understood really well what all my animals were saying to me and they helped me on my nerves. However, there was only one type of animal I could have a human-ish conversation with.

I went over to where my dragons like to stay. Of course, I only have one type of dragon now but for some time back I sent a letter to the twin's older brother Charlie.

He works with dragons in Romania. We talked a lot back and forth and I convinced him to give me three dragon eggs that were from some of the most vicious and endangered species.

One night he and two of his friends came here and I showed them my trunk as they left me with the eggs that they had brought. They hadn't hatched yet but I knew they would soon.

I quickly found the dragon I was looking for. We had a long conversation and he tried to convince me how everything was going to go great, and if I needed him, he would come up and burn people.

I realized it was soon time for breakfast and had to get up before the twins did, otherwise there would be questions.
