Daughter of Regulus Black: HPF

3 Schools 4 Champions

Estelle's POV

My friends have been acting weird since we did research on the tournament. I notice them having secret meetings with girls from Hufflepuff. They looked like members from the hufflepuff quidditch team. So I thought they were organizing friendly quidditch matches as there was no official competition this year. But that didn't explain why Patricia and Leanne were there.

"Honestly, I think your getting paranoid" Alicia tells me.

"We're not planning anything" Angelina adds.

"You're spending to much time with those Weasley twins and now you think everyone is up to something" Patricia states.

"Fine, I'll it. If you guys cover for me tonight" I tell them.

"What's tonight?" they asks.

"I wish to go to the restricted section and read the restricted copy of the Book of Spells" I state.

"Why would it be in the restricted section?" Patricia asks confused.

"It's said to be the first edition" I state. "It's said to contain all the spells from all the Standard Books of Spells series in it. Along with other rarer charms and jinxes" I explain.

"We'll cover for you during the feast. That'll give you a couple of hours" Angelina tells me.

"Excellent" I say with a smile.

"If you get caught, it's your own fault" Alicia tells me. I nod my head. We're all in the library studying and doing homework before the feast.

"What about the feast? The other schools arrive tonight, won't you be hungry?" Patricia asks me.

"I'll grab something from the kitchen, besides just tell McGonagall I am unwell" I state. They agree and we continue studying. Before Madame Pince told us to leave as the other schools would be arriving in half an hour. We left the library and I parted from my friends entering a supply closet. Where I turned into Raven, my cat form. Don't blame me, Patricia choose the name. Besides my owl's name is Cygnus.

Once the ghost was clear and I see Madame Pince leave the library. I enter it and make sure I'm alone. Before turning human in front of the locked restricted section. "Child's play" I say smirking as I draw my wand. "Alohomora" I say unlocking the doors and transform again.

I enter the restricted section and head for the spell books. I find the book I'm looking for and turn human. I grab it and sit by a window with it. And begin to read as I watch my fellow class mates welcome the other schools.

I lose track of time as I read about the Bubble-head charm. It'd allow me to explore the Lake without air. "You know, I could report you for being here" a guy says behind me. I gasp dropping the book and turn to see Cedric Diggory. Shouldn't he be at the feast? What time is it?

"The feast ended twenty minutes ago" he tells me. He picks up the book. "Unless you want to be caught by Madame Pince, I suggest we leave now" he tells me. I nod my head and we return the book to the shelf before leaving the library. "Are you hungry?" he asks me and my stomach grumbles. He chuckles as I blush. "Come on" he says leading me to the kitchen.

"So will you be entering?" I ask him quietly.

"Yes, though I doubt I'll be chosen. You'll never believe who is here" he tells me.

"Who?" I ask.

"Viktor Krum, the Bulgarian seeker. Turns out his in his final year at Durmstrang" he states.

"I wouldn't be surprised he was chosen" I state and he nods his head in agreement. We reach the kitchens and enter. I have a few sandwiches and a glass of water.

"Estelle, try to be more mindful of your surroundings in future" he tells me. I nod my had. He walks me to my common room. Bidding me good night before going on patrol.

(Time skip)

It's time for the three champions to be chosen by the Goblet of Fire. I'm sitting with Alicia, Angelina and Patricia. I notice Cedric sitting with his friends and he smiles at me when we lock eyes. I blush looking away from him.

"He's just a guy Estelle" Angelina tells me.

"An attractive one" Alicia tells her. I give her a look. "Oh you're so scary" she says.

"Good luck Angelina" I tell her and she gives me a smile.

"Well, the goblet is almost ready to make its decision" Dumbledore tells us dimming the lights in the room. "I estimate that it requires one more minute. Now, when the champions' names are called, I would ask them please to come up to the top of the Hall, walk along the staff table, and go through into the next chamber, where they will be receiving their first instructions" he explains gesturing to the door.

Soon the blue flames of the Goblet of Fire turn red. Sparks began to fly from it. Next moment, a tongue of flame shot into the air, a charred piece of parchment fluttered out of it. The whole room gasped. Dumbledore caught the piece of parchment and held it at arm's length, so that he could read it by the light of the flames, which had turned back to blue-white.

"The champion for Durmstrang, will be Viktor Krum" he announces. No surprises there. A storm of applause and cheering swept the Hall. Viktor Krum rise from the Slytherin table and slouch up toward Dumbledore; he turned right, walked along the staff table, and disappeared through the door into the next chamber. As his head master cheers him on.

The clapping and chatting died down. Now everyone's attention was focused again on the goblet. Which, seconds later, turned red once more. A second piece of parchment shot out of it, propelled by the flames. "The champion for Beauxbatons, is Fleur Delacour" Dumbledore announces. A girl who so resembled a veela got gracefully to her feet. Shook back her sheet of silvery blonde hair, and swept up between the Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff tables.

"Do you think she's up for the challenge?" Alicia asks us.

"Guess we'll find out" Patricia states. The Goblet of Fire turned red for a third tie. Sparks showered out of it; the tongue of flame shot high into the air, and from its tip Dumbledore pulled the third piece of parchment. Time for the Hogwarts champion.

"The Hogwarts champion, is Cedric Diggory!" Dumbledore announces. I freeze in place shocked. As every single Hufflepuff had jumped to his or her feet, screaming and stamping. As Cedric made his way past them, grinning broadly, and headed off toward the chamber behind the teachers' table.

"Are you ok?" Angelina asks me.

"I'm sure he'll be fine" Alicia tells me. Suddenly everyone goes silent around us. Looking around we notice why. The fire had gone red again. But why? Another piece of parchment appears.

Automatically, it seemed, Dumbledore reached out a long hand and seized the parchment. He held it out and stared at the name written upon it. There was a long pause, during which Dumbledore stared at the slip in his hands, and everyone in the room stared at Dumbledore. And then Dumbledore cleared his throat and read out "Harry Potter".
