Just so you guys know, my friend called me a b*tch for what happened to Sapphire Rose in the last chapter.

"Ginny! Pst! Ginny!" She whirled around, and was faced with Harry.

"What the bloody hell, Harry. I almost slapped you!" She raised her hand for emphasis, and he flinched away.

"Hagrid showed me what the first task was yesterday." Knowing she was likely going to yell, Harry clamped a hand over her mouth.

"We need to to find somewhere to talk that's better than here. Don't bite my hand either, Ginerva."

A few corridors later, they arrived at the Room of Requirement. Harry released her once they were safely closed in the room.

"Was keeping your sweaty hand over my mouth really necessary, Carissime?"

He scowled at her. "I'll tickle you."

"You wouldn't dare!" She said in mock horror.

"How much ya wanna bet?"

"3 sic-." But she couldn't finish, because Harry knocked her onto one of the threadbare couches, tickling her with all his power.

"Harry! James! Potter! Stop! Right! Now!" She could barely manage to talk through how hard she was laughing.

He finally stopped, and sat up on the couch.

"You owe me three sickles." He looked at her and smiled, she just punched his shoulder.

She snorted "Dream on."

"I do dream. And those 3 sickles are always in them."

She snorted again, and punched him in the shoulder. "Anyway, Carissime, what did you require my kidnapping for again? Or did you tell me, and I don't remember it?"

"The first task is Dragons! We have to fight one, the people in the tournament I mean."

She put head in her hands. "What are we gonna do, Harry?"

"I honestly have no idea, Gin. I have to fight a bloody dragon!" He had been pacing around, and after finishing his sentence he collapsed dramatically into a chair.

"What're you aloud to have?" She was practically speaking through her fingers.

"We're allowed a wand for all the tasks." He was talking, but quietly, and if it wasn't for Ginny's enhanced hearing from the Bond she never would have been able to hear him.

She shot her head up suddenly, her hair spraying out everywhere for a moment. "A summoning charm. Yeah! That could work!" She jumped up excitedly, and pulled out her wand.

"Er, Gin, what're you doing?" She just tuned him out, instead pointing her wand at the cushion by the corner.

"Accio cushion!" The fluffy white cushion flew towards her, and into her arms, knocking her backward.

"That," she said, and blew a strand of fiery hair out of her eye, "is a summoning charm."

"Well, I'm up for practice."

It took a couple of days for Harry to master the Summoning Charm. The Bond made it easier, that and Ginny somehow knew how to do it already.

The day of the challenge arrived, Harry was tense, but Ginny felt more worried.

The champions each had private tents pitched up, and Harrys had his name, as well as his number on it.

"Harry James!" She stormed in without asking his permission.

He looked up, "Gin! What're you doing?!"

She ran at him and hugged him, tight. "You die out there, I'll kill you Harry Potter! I mean it!"

He chuckled lightly. "Wouldn't I already be dead?"

"I'll resurrect you! I swear!" She let go and backed up.

"You be careful, Carissime, I mean it."

"When are you gonna stop calling me Carissime?"

"Probably never. It annoys you." And she ran out to the tent, up to the stands.

She was sitting by herself, off in a far away section, she didn't need the stares from other people.

It was still easy enough to see that Lily and James were there, holding Gryffindor coloured flags, and cheering on Harry, with Darcy and Ella beside them.

Remus and Tonks were there, cheering on Harry. Teddy had both a Hufflepuff and Gryffindor Flag, and Sapphire Rose was moping a bit, but still cheering.

Sirius was here with Marlene and Annabelle. The two were holding Gryffindor Flags, and even little Annabelle was yelling for Harry to do good, and was throwing some flags around with her chubby fingers. Katie was watching Cedric now. Jasmine was staring at Ginny, but she didn't notice.

Cedric finally caught the egg, and was announced his time. Then came the Hungarian Horntail.

"Oh my god! Harry has to fight that! Ginny grabbed tighter on the railing, and her knuckles whitened.

"Announcing Harry Potter!" Harry walked out, and the dragon turned on him. It let out a low growl, and Harry yelled out the summoning charm, and his broom flew towards him. The crowd erupted in cheers.

Harry jumped on the broom, and took off. He flew low around the stadium, and then the dragon saw Ginny.

It seemed to forget all about Harry and the egg it was supposed to protect.

Instead, it's eyes seemed to darken and it shot a blast of white hot fire towards Ginny.
