Today is the choosing for the student participating in the Triwizard Tournament. Everyone and a few other schools are now gathered in the Great Hall, within the front there is The Goblet Of Fire itself.
"Sit down, please" Dumbledore yelled amongst the crowd.
"Now the moment you have all been waiting for..
The champion selection." He waved his arm upwards towards the lights within the room which made them all go dim.
The goblet spit out a piece of paper. "Viktor Krum" Dumbledore announced. This was of course someone from another school.
Again another slip was spit out as the goblet turned a red color. "Fleur Delacour" He said, another different school student.
Then again, "The Hogwarts Champion, Cedric Diggory" I hadn't known that kid well, with him being in a different house and especially being a Hufflepuff, I haven't had any encounters with him.
He kept talking with announcing the reward and some other crap I wasn't listening too. Then Professor Snape walked down, And they all turn back towards the goblet? This caught me off guard. So I snapped out of my trance.
Out spat the goblet yet another slip of paper. This was unusual. Its a triwizard tournament. Which means three. Not four.
"Oakley Potter." Dumbledore said. I shot out of my seat. Nearly pissing myself. There is no way in Merlin that he just said my name. Im not of age? I didn't put my name in that darn thing. Ain't no way Im doing all of those tasks.
"Oakley Potter!" He said louder this time, frantically looking around for me. At this moment my brother was stood up amongst the crowd as well.
My skin was already crawling. My head was throbbing and I had an enormous headache. I didn't even know what to think. Was I over exaggerating? Or am I being reasonable.
"Oakley Potter!!" He screamed this time. Every cell in my body was terrified. I didn't move. I couldn't move. It was all I could muster to not run out of the school entirely.
Harry and I both walked together up to Dumbledore. Harry must have known I was deathly scared because he never follows me or hell even talks to me.
He handed me the slip of paper and gestured me forward. Harry followed me down to the room with the other contestants. With stares and screams from the other students.
The room we had walked into was dull. Brown painted walls and the other contestants stood at the far right side of the room. All of them looking at me with wide eyes. Cedric looking disappointed almost.
"Oakley! Did you put your name in the goblet of fire?!" Dumbledore shook me at my shoulders.
"No! Of course not. Why in Merlins name would I do that!" Harry was practically so close to me that I could feel his breath on the back of my neck as he was stood behind me.
"She wouldn't do that. She knows how dangerous it is."
"Dumbledore shes been gipped. I just know it." Harry stood up for me, he could feel my entire body shaking at this point.
"Are you absolutely shore?"
"Yes sir" I mumbled under my breath.
We watched the adults scramble amongst each other, one of the older men started speaking "Miss. Potter has no choice. As of tonight she is a Triwizard champion." And they all looked back at me. Im absolutely mortified.
The hairs on the back of my neck were stood up. My hands drenched in sweat and my back as well. Generally Im not that much of a coward. And if I had entered myself, I wouldn't be so scared. But this happens to mean that someone purposely set me up within all of this.
AU- Im so sorry this chapter is so short 😭 I could harly figure out what to write and I have a massive writters block right now.
