The Heart of Durmstrang

Chapter 13:The article

"Where were you last night" pestered Ivan as he watched adeline brush her hair. "Its non of your bloody Business.. i do not want to get you wrapped up into anything at 11" exclaimed Adeline, slamming her bush down on the table with a thud. "Let's just say... im trying to find out who i am"
"Ohhh so you are exploring your options of guys that you have around you" he stated with a grin. "Ivan,just shut up" she blurted pushing her brother way causing him to hit the stone door frame with a thud. "im leaving" she stated walking passed her bother as he rubbed the back of his head. "Have fun with viktor"exclaimed Ivan, watching adeline walk down the hall. He knew she was ignoring him but he just had to say something just to get on her nerves.
Adeline walked down the stone path towards Hogwarts quidditch pitch where the first task was going to happen. But instead of walking into the Quidditch sitting area she had  made her way towards the locker rooms, where she knew viktor would be. She moved aside the curtain that covered the entrance to see all of the champions in a circle with their head masters behind them with Barty Crouch in the center of them. She walked into the area and tried to be silent but her father had noticed her as the curtain fell to the ground. Did he notice that she was gone all night? Did he even care that she was gone?  The circle broke, each of the champion went there one Ways, but Viktor slowly walked towards Adeline. Her father, had followed Albus Dumbledore. " you look like you haven't slept in days" chuckled Viktor hugging adeline. " trust me, if you knew what I did... you wouldn't of slept as well" she responded with a chunk. "Imagine how i felt, during the world cup.. now that was something" he responded, breaking the hug. "After what im about to do may top everything" he added. "What is the first round" asked adeline, following viktor to a bench that sat under a banner with durmstrang sigil etched upon the fabric. "Dragons.. can you believe that" he responded, sitting down on the bench. "I can not believe my father is allowing that" exclaimed Adeline crossing her arms. "Your father doesn't care.. after all he is a death eater.. has no soul" viktor joked as he tightened his boots laces. "Viktor.. be careful saying that.. they could take that the wrong way here" stated adeline hitting viktor shoulder. "Sorry.. I forgot im not allowed to say anything"  he apologized. "Its not that viktor.. Harry Potter is right over there.. he killed Voldemort and who knows what he can do with my father" Adeline exclaimed, pointing to Harry Potter getting himself together. "He is like what.. 14. Im surprised you care for your dad" responded viktor as he stood up and streched. "The only reason i care for him is due to Ivan.. he still doesn't know" she responded with a heavy sigh. "Im gonna head to the stands.. good luck out there viktor" Adeline add giving him one last hug.

"About time you joined"exclaimed Karkaroff, crossing his arm. Adeline took a seat on the other side of ivan which mad her one seat away from Albus Dumbledore. "I have my priorities Igor" Adeline responded darkly. Knowing darn well she knew he hated when she calls him by his first name. "She was with viktor" ivan chuckled. The laughter didn't last long... Adeline had smacked the back of his head. "I saw" Karkaroff replied... the sound of the cannon had echoed from the distance saving adeline from the conversation that was about to start between her and her father. The first round of the tri-wizard tournament had officially began. Watching the French girl named fleur , kept adeline and the edge of her seat for a good 15 mins. she felt really bad for her. watching her panic behind the giant rocks as the a Welsh Green dragon breathed flames in her direction. She even gave a sigh of relief, when she grabbed the golden egg. Next was viktor.. the only champion she cared for.. this could be the last time adline could see Viktor not in a crisp. His dragon slowly came out of hiding.. a scarlet Chinese Fireball. she balled her hands in a fist and yelled. "Remember! The egg is like a snitch.. A very dangrous golden snitch". "Some one has there head in the game" snickered Ivan. He has never heard his sister say anything about quidditch or even seen her watch a single bit of it. Adeline didn't respond to her little, she had her eyes on her childhood friend. He rolled then sled behind a rock.. he was so close to the egg. But he had to Figure out how he was going to get to the egg. The The Dragon circled around the rock looking for viktor, it seemed like she was lost. Viktor took his chance. He drew his wand and as The dragon was distracted looking for him, which didn't last long.He now stood face to face with a dragon. With out any words, a bright yellow beam had hit the dragon. This was it.He made a run for it, he had made it. He held the eggs in his hand. Adeline was the first one to stand and cheer.. her father was a bit proud. Watching his daughter cheer for Viktor. Everyone joined Adeline in the roaring cheers for viktor.

"You done it Viktor" exclaimed Adeline, patting his shoulder as she sat down at the slytherin to join her school for celebration dinner. "Trust me, it wasn't easy" he chuckled. "Trust me, i saw what happened" Adeline responded. "So.. you will watch me almost die but you won't go to my professional Quidditch games" exclaimed Viktor very astonished. "I dont get to see people get chased by dragons every day" she responded with a chuckle. "And plus i—" "you dont fancy quidditch" Viktor cut of Adeline as he took a pice of chicken and placed it on his plate. "Any news from your application" Viktor asked, there was a small pause..
Adeline has been so busy trying to hunt things down about her mother, that she totally forgot about her application to work for London's International Magical Office of Law. "I haven't heard anything.. still haven't even told my father anything but time will come when i have to.

The night and day slowly come and gone. Viktor and Adeline made their way from the boat to the entrance of Hogwarts, getting glances from the Hogwarts female students. "Your fan girls aren't running to your feet today" Adeline joked. "It nice for once" he responded. "Adeline, addy" yelled a voice in front of them. Ivan ran towards them with a piece of paper clinched in his hand and it flapped in the wind as he ran. "Vik and addy, you guys have to read this" exclaimed ivan, stopping his sister in her and Viktor's tracks. Holding the parchment in front of him for them to read.
Adeline got a glance at the paper that was the daily profit and her heart dropped.
     Has Famous Viktor krum found love?
The photo that was under the headline was viktor and Adeline hugging right before the first task just yesterday. "That is not true" snapped Adeline snatching the daily profit from ivan's hand.
"Viktor krum (Bulgaria seeker), may have found love during the tri-wizard tournament. Step aside ladies seems like he has his eyes on this unnamed witch" Adeline read out loud. "That is not true, childhood friends we are" Viktor responded, scanning the papers him self. "Rita skitter, is who wrote this"Ivan responded pointing at the witches name which was upside down from where he was standing.  "She was the one who interviewed me a day after the names where chosen" responded Viktor as Adeline handed her little brother the daily profit. "Ivan do anything you can to keep that away from dad" asked Adeline. Ivan gave a nod taking the paper from Adeline and started to walk back to the ship. "I swear if i see that woman, she is getting cursed in to next year" mumbled Adeline as they continued making there way up to the castle.
