*At breakfast, the quartet sat down. Damian was almost done with his breakfast while Ron and Harry were still eating theirs. Hermione was reading the paper. The Pratell Twins walked right by Harry.*

Pratell Twins: Hi, Harry.

*Harry nodded and then eyed at Cho. He smiled but his drink spilled out his mouth. The girls and Cho giggled. Hermione groaned as she read the paper.*

Hermione: Look at this! l can't believe it! She's done it again. "Miss Granger, a plain but ambitious girl, seems to be developing a taste for famous wizards. Her latest prey, sources report is none other than the Bulgarian bonbon, Viktor Krum. No word yet on how Harry Potter's taking this latest emotional blow." I mean honestly, I'm not some prized possession or trophy you can take home to show your–

*Hermione stopped before she said the word "parents" because she realized that both Harry's and Damian's parents were gone.*

Hermione: Sorry boys.

Damian: It's fine.

Harry: Yeah, it's okay.

Ron: Hermione. Turn the page around.

*Hermione turned the paper around and saw the burning bat symbol in the sky with the headline "The Bat Lives!" She let out an annoyed groan again.*

Hermione: Batman made the front page again, why am I not bloody surprised?

Ron: Oi. You want to keep it down?

Hermione: Why do you, Harry, and Damian even support that vigilante? He's breaking the law and he's going to get himself hurt doing it.

Ron: He's a hero, Hermione.

Hermione: Heroes I support don't wear masks, Ronald.

*Just then as the two were arguing, Viktor Krum walked over and greeted Damian.*

Krum: Mr. Wayne. Viktor Krum.

Damian: Pleasure.

*Damian shook his hand.*

Krum: Might I have a word with you?

Damian: Sure.

*Krum sat down next to Damian.*

Krum: They say you know the Batman. Is it true?

*When he asked that, everyone stopped what they were doing and looked at Damian. He looked around and nodded.*

Damian: Yeah, why?

Krum: I wish to see if he's really what he says he's good at.

*This got Hermione's attention and looked at him.*

Hermione: Excuse me, Viktor. You can't seriously be suggesting that you want to challenge this Batman person to a magic duel, are you?

Krum: No. Not, magic Miss Granger. A brawling match.

*Harry and Ron stopped while Fred choked on his water. Everyone was intrigued by what Krum said. He wants to fight Batman.*

Krum: The brawl will be coming up soon. I suggest that you inform your Bat friend soon, Mr. Wayne. I will look forward to seeing him there.

*Damian nodded nervously and sat down. Krum walked away. Both Damian and Harry shared a look that said "Shit..." Ron leaned in closely.*

Ron: You don't think he'd be crazy enough to actually fight Krum, do you?

Damian: I think Krum is crazy. I mean, him against Batman? They say Batman's like a ninja.

Hermione: At this point, nothing surprises me.
