The day before the World Cup, Theo, Neville, Pansy, Astoria and Daphne flooed over, each holding a money pouch their parents/guardian handed them before leaving. The Burrow had not been this full before, they magically expanded the living room that way everyone could have a sleepover the night before they left. "Alright , what was it that you discovered that's so important?" Daphne asked, earlier in the summer Dahlia had told them she found out something important but had to wait until they were all together to tell them. "While at the reserve, Argon pulled me aside, looking extremely nervous. It would seem our esteemed Minister has decided to bring back the Triwizard Tournament" Dahlia said, her voice full of disproval. "And why would Argo know?" Ron asked confused "oh Merlin... They plan to use dragons, aren't they" Daphne said, connecting the dots.

The Hall exploded in noise, people voicing their protests, muggleborns asking what the tournament was, Ron whistled sharply, getting everyone's attention "now that that's done, save your attempts to skin fudge until the next movie" Ron said, Fudge looked like he wanted to disappear into the mattress.

"Not just any Dragons, no because that would be too easy. The bloody idiot wants to use nesting mothers, and he wants the task to involve them getting a fake egg from the clutch" Dahlia said furious. "I can't believe Argon would agree to that" Hermione said "he didn't have a choice, fudge threatened to pull funding, of course my lovely wife has ensured money is no longer a problem for them, However the contract is already signed so he is obligated to provide them." Blaise explained "I've already made my concerns to the ICW, I've spoken with The dragons, while not happy, they trust I'll ensure they remain ok, I made sure to inform Argon, that only those whose eggs are far enough along that they won't be hurt by the travel are allowed" She said taking over.

Everyone turned to glare at fudge, he shrunk down in his seat, now really wishing he could just disappear, he really didn't want to see what his future self does next year, if their to be believed it's far worse than his current behavior, he needed to find a way to hide immediately.

After Breakfast the large group headed out to the forest, being met up with by Luna, Hermes immediately slithered up, wrapping around his Mistress's hatchling. "Hi little moon, was your summer good?" She asked softly, Onyx flew overhead, while she could leave the other three at home with Molly, she couldn't leave Hermes or Onyx, the bond simply wouldn't allow for it. "It was fun, Me and daddy went looking for the prinkled beary trogs in the Amazon" Luna smiled brightly, only Arthur blinked at her words, everyone else having gotten used to the petite Blondie's behavior.

"I thought Charlie, Lola and Bill were going as well?" Molly asked, confused, "they are, however since their older, they'll be apparating in later. We had to take a portkey, it's a secure measure the ministry implemented, most people have to port key in, since there was a limited amount of slots" Dahlia explained

They met up with Amos and Cedric Diggory, "Arthur! It’s about time, son." Amos said, checking his watch "Sorry, Amos. Some of us had a bit of a sleepy start. This is Amos Diggory, everyone. Works with me at the Ministry. And this strapping young lad must be Cedric, am I right?" Arthur asked, looking at Cedric. "Hi ced, ready to have your butt handed to you in quidditch?" Dahlia smirked, she enjoyed winding up the Hufflepuff "Your on Black" Cedric said, teasing. "Merlin's beard! You must be Dahlia Potter." Amos said in shock, shaking her hand "It's Black-Potter sir... But yes I am" She said politely "Great, great pleasure. Cedric has told me a lot about you and your brother's quidditch skills, not to mention your deserts that he raves about" Amos said, causing Cedric to blush "it's a pleasure to meet you as well sir, I'll be sure to send some of my cupcakes to you soon" she smiled as they went up the hill, reaching the port key.

"Alright everyone, get into a good position" Arthur said as they all surrounded the boot, Onyx shrunk down and wrapped tightly around her wrist, looking like a bracelet. Hermes wrapped around Blaise securely, "on the count of three. One..... Two.... Three!" Amos count down as they vanish into the sky, the world spinning around them fast as the port key activates, Dahlia laughed, clearing.

"Just look at it makes me feel sick" lily groaned, watching as the world spinned, "only Merlin knows where she got her love for magical travel" James said, it was well known by everyone that he always got sick from magical travel, not to mention h...

"Let go kids" Arthur said, "WHAT?!" Hermione shrieked, "let  go" Arthur said again, everyone letting go of the port key, almost all of the kids landed on the floor hard, Blaise caught Dahlia before she could land "I’ll bet that cleared your sinuses, eh?" Arthur said with a laugh. Landing gracefully with Amos and Cedric, Dahlia immediately checked on her little moon, making sure she was ok, Luna smiled as Dahlia checked on her, Blaise hovering by, just as concerned, she basked in the parental feelings they were Amitting.
