ACT FOUR

Sophia awoke the next morning to an air of gloom and excitement, whilst the weather was abysmal, Sophia was excited to return to Hogwarts.

Apparently, Mad Eye Moody thought someone had tried to break into his house. He was once a great auror, or so Dora told her, until he went well mad.

They were loading their bags into taxies when Fred approached Sophia,

"Let me Goldie" he'd smiled, causing Sophia to flush red and him to wink, Sophia had gotten lost in his eyes and missed the rest of what he said, apparently they were now sitting together in the taxies. Which Sophia was very happy about,

Eventually, they reached Kings Cross and made it aboard the glistening Hogwarts Express,

It appeared Bill, Charlie and Mrs Weasley all knew something that they refused to tell them as they boarded the train, Mrs Weasley assured them they'd find out that evening though.

Harry, Ron, Hermione and Sophia all found a compartment, but as soon as they sat down, they heard Draco droning on about Durmstrang outside. He then leaned in to their compartment,

"Been to see your fiancé yet Soph?" Sophia's eyes widened, she'd completely forgotten her father was trying to marry her off to Tiberius Yaxley.

"Your what!" All her friends shouted at once,

"Well for one Draco, I'm not actually going to marry him. I don't give a shit what father says, if he thinks I'm marrying that pig, he's got another thing coming! And two, fuck off" Draco smirked and hurried off,

Sophia explained the situation to them, they all seemed shocked about it. They then started discussing Durmstrang Institute. Eileen and Bree temporarily joined them which led to Bree snapping at Sophia because Sirius had sent her a gift and letters and Bree hadn't gotten anything, Sophia rolled her eyes slightly and Eileen then left, saying she had to meet someone.

They then went back to discussing Quidditch which annoyed Hermione, they were recounting the day to Neville when her brother appeared, making another snide comment,

Draco then began taunting Ron about his robes and asking them if they were going to enter, enter what Sophia had no idea. Apparently, their father had told him,

"I'm not surprised father didn't tell you Soph, he does view you as less than these days" Sophia rolled her eyes at her brother, Draco smiled and walked off,

Once they arrived they made sure to greet Hagrid before making their way into the hall,

Colin Creevey announced that his brother was starting at Hogwarts, and Harry questioned whether siblings were always in the same house,

"Not always, look at mine and Eileen's siblings" Sophia replied, Harry nodded, Sophia had siblings in every single house as did Eileen.

The sorting took ages and Sophia was getting hungry, and annoyed, eventually the feast was served and Sophia and Ron happily tucked in,

Sophia's eyes widened in horror as they were told there wouldn't be a Quidditch Cup this year, she looked over at Fred who looked just as appalled as she felt, apparently there was another exciting event happening but Sophia didn't know what could be better than Quidditch,

Just then, the doors slammed open, a man with a very clearly fake eye was storming down the centre of the hall, toward Dumbledore. Sophia was incredibly confused, apparently he was the new Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher, Professor Moody,

"Mad eye moody?" Harry questioned

"Must be" Sophia responded, Ron nodded in agreement as he continued eating the food, then Dumbledore announced it,
