"She was a wild one. Always stomping on eggshells that everyone else tip-toed on."

Scarlet was spending her time in helping Harry or playing pranks with The Twins. She gave them new ideas to prank like she told them a spell that could make something invisible. They did that to the Slytherin's robes and that was very funny seeing the Slytherins like that. And they received a weeks detention with McGonagall. But that didn't stop Scarlet and The Twins from playing pranks. They also did more wild pranks like Draco being bald for 24 hours which was very fun and applying a sticking charm on Slytherin's bench which they sticked onto for around 5-6 hours.

And then finally came the day of 24th November. The First Task. Scarlet woke up and quickly got ready in her outfit for that day.

When she stepped outside her room to see Victor waiting for her. "Good Luck!" she exclaimed hugging him. He hugged her back and replied "Thank You! because without your good luck I am for sure going to lose", Scarlet just laughed in response and pulled away. "Let's Go!" she said dragging him to the castle.

When they reached, several boys and girls surrounded Victor, wishing him good luck. Scarlet got out of crowd as they were probably going to stomp on her. Scarlet made her way to Harry. "Good Luck and don't Die" she said to him jokingly and patted his shoulder. He blushed but Scarlet didn't see it as she was now talking with George about a prank and she didn't remove her hand from Harry's shoulders which didn't help with the blush. 

She finally removed her hand when McGonagall came to take Harry, who was red as a tomato, for the First Task. She then made her way to the stadium which was in The Forbidden Forest.

Scarlet was sitting nervously on her bench with her side empty as Hermione was gone to meet Harry. When she returned, her face was red as she muttered something about Rita Skeeter. Soon, roars were heard as Cedric came into the ring. He was facing a Swedish Short-Snout; he transfigured a boulder into a Labrador dog, which diverted the attention of the dragon long enough to let him steal the egg. Next came Fleur, who was surprisingly wearing a skirt. She was facing a Common Welsh Green; she attempted to charm her dragon into a trance. This worked, but the dragon snored, and the resulting flame set her skirts alight. Next was Victor, he was facing a Chinese Fireball; he used Conjunctivitus curse which blinded the dragon but it thrashed about in a rage and damaged other eggs. Everyone cheered as Victor made his way back with the egg. And finally came Harry, he was facing a Hungarian Horntail which was the most dangerous of them all; he used Summoning Charm to call his Firebolt and ride on it, tempting the dragon to rise away from the golden egg. When the dragon had reared, leaving the eggs unguarded, he quickly scooped up the egg and finished the task with the highest points.

Scarlet made her way to Victor after everyone were dismissed. She hugged him "You did so well!" she squealed. But they were interrupted by Igor. "Victor can I have a word with you?" he asked and Victor nodded and went with him after giving Scarlet an apologetic look which she waved off with her hand.

Scarlet made her way to the Gryffindor Common Room as there was party for Harry. "Balderdash" she said to the Fat Lady's Painting; George told her the password. She saw a red, warm Common Room and Harry in the middle of it. Scarlet went and joined Hermione in the side and she hands her some butterbeer. 

"Knew you wouldn't die, Harry. Lose an arm" said Fred "Or a Leg" said George "But pack it up altogether" said Fred "Never" the twin said in unison. "Come On Harry, What you'd say?" asks Seamus holding up the Egg. "Bring it here" replies Harry. Cheers goes on and Seamus passes the egg. Harry opens it and it released a Horrible Screeching Wail. "Shit It! Shut It!" says Fred loudly. Harry quickly snaps it shut. "Bloody Hell! What was that?" comes Ron's Voice. 

Harry looks. Scarlet looks. Hermione looks. Everyone looks at him. Ron standing on the potrait hole, his hands covering his ears. "Alright everyone! go back to your knitting. It is going to be uncomfortable enough without all you nosy sods listening in" yells Fred. And everyone maked them selves look occupied. 

Harry was glaring at Ron. "I reckon you'd have to be barking mad to put your own name in the goblet of fire." said Ron. "Caught on have you. Took you long enough." replied Harry, sassily. "Wasn't just me who thought you'd done it. Everyone was saying it behind your back." says Ron defensively but it wasn't working. "Brilliant. That makes me feel loads better." replies Harry sarcastically. "At least I warned you about the dragons." says Ron in a high pitched tone. "Hagrid warned me about the dragons." replied Harry in the same tone. "Oh no no, I did. Don't you remember? I told Hermione to tell you that Seamus told me that Parvati told Dean that Hagrid was looking for you. Seamus never actually told me anything, so it was really me all along. I thought you'd be alright, you know, after you figured that out." Ron rambled in a single breath. "Who could possibly figure that out? That's completely mental." replies Harry. "Yeah it is isn't it. Suppose I was a bit distraught." says Ron sheepishly. "Boys" said Scarlet and Hermione in unison and drank their butterbeer. 

Scarlet enjoyed the party for a bit long. Drank some butterbeer and danced with the twins and then made her way to the Ship to get a sleep after a long long day....
