Chapter Two

We walk to a tree where a middle age man is.

"Diggory," Dad smirks.

"You're late Arthur," Mr. Diggory chuckles.

"Some of us had a sleepy start."

Ron groans to confirm it. Cedric Diggory jumps from the tree. Him being Seeker from Hufflepuff, I have met him before. Tries to be Mr. Perfect all the time. Hermione and Ginny gush over him while I give the guy the cold shoulder.

"Hello Abigale," he smiles as he kisses my hand.

"Cedric," I reply, gently pulling my hand away. We all go to a mangy old boot on the hill. As Fred and George explain it to Harry, it's a Portkey. I grab it like the others. Harry is last to react, so it is a bit funny. We start spinning in circles as the ground vanishes.

"Let go," Dad orders.

"What?" We all shout.

"Are you mad?" I add.

"Let go."

We do as he says. I land hard on top of someone.

"I'm never doing that again," I moan as I look around. Ginny and I ended up on top of Fred and George.

"Bet that cleared up your sinuses," Dad jokes as him and the Diggorys land elegantly.

"Off me Abi," Fred whines. I stand up and help Ginny off George. Everyone walks off. The Diggorys go to the Irish section and we go to the mixed. We enter in a tent that's bigger on the inside. Like the TARDIS on the muggle show, Doctor Who.

I saw a couple episodes. Pretty cool in my opinion. I throw my bag on the bunk above Ginny's. The other set of twins are mocking Dad and Ron is trying to sneak food from the kitchen.

"I love magic," Harry gasps.

"Doesn't everyone," I reply as I flop into a comfy bean bag.

"We should be there soon," Dad mutters. After everyone was ready we go to see the game. I am so excited. We go up the stairs, me in the back.

"Bloody hell, Dad," Ron gasps. "How high are we going?"

"Put it this way," another voice states. Lucious Malfoy. "If it rains you'll be the first to know."

"We're in the Ministry box," Draco brags. "Personal invite from the Minister, himself."

"Don't brag, Draco," his father smirks.

"So you can?" I ask.

"Abi," Ginny hisses. Draco shakes his head as a warning, but I ignore them.

"Do enjoy yourself while you still can," Lucious states and turns around. When no one is looking, Draco hands me a note, then follows his father. I follow my family the rest of the way before looking at the note.

By the field after game.

I smirk and shove it in my pocket. The Irish fly out. Fred, George, and I list all the players while other Irish fans shout the cheer. A leprechaun appears in the sky, doing a jig. Until Bulgaria flies through.

"Victor Krum," Ron shouts in joy. I sign to Ginny Ireland is going to win. She replies with a no.

"Welcome," Minister Fudge announces. "And let the games begin."

The Golden Snitch is released and the game begins.
