We were seating at the Gryffindor table, waiting for Dumbledore to do his usually speech and for the new students to be sorted into their houses. I was still searching Mattheo between all the heads of the Slytherin and when I saw him, I was able to see that he was with Draco, Blaise, Pansy, and Daphne.

"What is he doing with them?" I asked, a second time to myself

"I don't know, don't focus all your attention on this, everything will be alright." Harry answered while looking at the food that was placed right in front of us.

"Well those are not good friends to make. Do you think it's a big deal, I mean the fact that he is way closer to them? I knew they were friends before, but you know...."

[Yes, I do. And I don't like him]

"No, I don't think so. Look I don't know him like you do, actually I never spoke to him, but don't worry for the moment. When you will see a Dark Mark on his arm, it will be the time to worry"

"Thank you Harry"

"It's okay" he said while laughing

He lied to me because he didn't want me to worry about this but I knew what he was thinking. Literally. How I hated be able to read people's thoughts. Sometimes it was good, but not right at this moment. I didn't need that. Not everyone could read minds, no one actually I didn't know but what I knew is being Queenie's granddaughter was something to hide when you didn't want to be the centre of attention or whatever. In addition of reading thoughts, I could enter in people's mind to see a memory. I had to lie, I didn't come from a muggle's family. My parents told me to made up a lie, and with Voldemort's son at Hogwarts, they didn't want me to be in danger, I guessed. No one knew what I could do, not even Harry, Hermione, and Ron. But what if I couldn't read thoughts, would've I be friend with them? It was because I was really quiet in classe that Hermione came to see me and talked to me. And then, I started being friend with all of them and....

"Y/N, are you alright?"

Ron looked at me with his eyebrows frowned.

"Yeah I'm fine thank you"

Suddenly, everyone was silent, Dumbledore stood up.

"This is the beginning of a new year for each of you, and the beginning of a new life for our new students. Because of Professor Lupin's resignation, Alastor Moody will take his place as a professor of Defence Against the Dark Arts."

A man with a strange eye stood up and looked at all the students, then sat down.

"He scares me" Ron said

Dumbledore spoke again:

"This year will be different than the others, in fact, we welcome young wizards from all across the world. Like I said, new students will arrived at Hogwarts. This year, there will be the Triwizard Tournament here, at Hogwarts."

Right after he finished to speak, Rusard ran through the hallway and stood up next to Dumbledore.

"They're here"

The door opened and we saw a group of young men. All dressed up the same. They slammed their stick on the floor while singing a song. Some of them were doing acrobatics. A man walked to Dumbledore and greeted him. A boy with a coat walked between his classmates who were playing with fire to amaze us.

"It's Viktor Krum!" Said Ron with a smile on his face

"What?" Replied Hermione while looking at the students of Durmstrang.

"Oh look!" Harry said pointing a group of girls that had just arrived in the room.

They were all beautiful with long blond hair en blue eyes. They danced gracefully and had like a power of enchantment on the Hogwarts boys.

"They're amazing!"

"Oh Ron please!" Hermione declared with an angry tone of voice.

Dumbledore raised his hand and everyone was silent, again.

"Please welcome Igor Karkaroff, director of the German's wizards school and Olympe Maxime, director of Beauxbâtons, French's academy of magic."

Everyone applauded.

"You will live with them for the rest of the year. In addition, there will be a ball after the first task. To participate to this tournament, you have to put a paper with your name written on it here, in this cup. But because of the danger this tournament represents, nobody under seventeen can participate!"

Everyone began to protest this decision but Dumbledore replied

"And I will make sure that this rule is respected by protecting this cup with an enchantment I made. A last thing before you go to your commun rooms, anyone who wants to participate has to be very brave. You can die while executing a task"

We all stood up and walked to our commun rooms.

"I feel this year will be completely chaotic" said Hermione

"Yes, but at least we will have a ball" replied Harry

We all laughed as we reached the Gryffindor's commun room.
