                   Vero walks with Ginny and Hermione as they follow Arthur into the crowd, taking in the sights. Music is playing, and people fly about overhead on brooms. "Come on! Keep up, girls!" Arthur said.

                   "Parting of the waves, I think, old chap," Amos said.

                    "see you at the match," Amos and Arthur said simultaneously as they shook hands.

                    "See you later, Cedric," Fred said as Amos and Cedric walked off. After a few more minutes of walking, they soon approach a small tent.

                    "Ah, Home sweet home," Arthur said as he opened the flap of the small tent for his kids. All the kids look at the tiny tent in confusion, then walk in one by one. As Vero walks in with Harry, they both stare in awe at how big the inside is of the tent was compared to the outside. "Girls. Choose a bunk and unpack. Ron, get out of the kitchen. We're all hungry," Arthur ordered.

                    "Yeah, get out of the kitchen Ron," Fred and George said.

                    "Feet off the table," Arthur ordered the twins.

                    "Feet off the table," Fred and George said as they took their feet off the table and put them back on as soon as Arthur had walked past.

                    "I love magic," Harry said with a smile as Ginny grabbed Vero's hands and pulled her away to pick a bunk.

                    Hours later, Vero follows Harry up the stairs of a large stadium that seems to have a massive number of floors. "Blimey Dad, how far up are we?" Ron asked as Lucius Malfoy and Draco were walking on a platform below them.

                   "Well, put it this way, if it rains... you'll be the first to know," Lucius said, catching the group's attention. Lucius had a pale, pointed face, with pale blond hair and cold grey eyes. His son Draco was the spitting image of him.

                    "Father and I are in the minister's box, by personal invitation of Cornelius Fudge himself," Draco boasted as he smirked at Harry.

                    Lucius rams the end of his cane into his son's chest, instantly shutting him up. "Don't boast, Draco. There's no need with these people," he said in a distasteful tone. Harry grabs Hermione's arm and goes to turn away, but Lucius reaches out with his cane and catches Harry's coat with it. Harry struggled to get free, "Do enjoy yourself, won't you? While you can," Lucius said, but suddenly his cane is yanked off of Harry by Vero, surprising everyone. Arthur takes this chance to push the kids up the stairs away from Lucius, who stares at Vero's retreating form. As the group reaches the top of the stadium seats, the ceremonies begin.

                    Balloons fly, and fireworks go off, "Come on up, take your seats. I told you these seats would be worth waiting for," Arthur said as everyone ducked under a colossal stadium light to get to their seats. Vero's face was painted black and red like Ron's for the Bulgarians, while the twin's faces were painted white and green for the Irish team. Fred, George, Ginny, and Hermione all wore white and green scarves and huge Irish hats, while Harry wore a red and black scarf and hat. Five green and white figures fly through the air on their brooms, leaving a white and green trail behind them.
