The Lovegood Vampire [HP Fanfiction] [EDITING]

Chapter 35- The Entries

I walked past the dining hall and saw the elder kids throw their names into the cup. I smiled and sat down next to Hermione, taking out my favourite book; The Guide to Crystals, Crystal Balls, Bird entrails, leaf reading and Palmistry. It was hard- covered with a picture of a crystal ball with a purple background with clear crystals. It was small, like the size of A5 and I opened it, reading about the crystal healing. I heard a few Hufflepuff boys cheer on a boy, which I recognised as Cho's 'boyfriend' Cedric Diggory. I looked up from my book and at the cup, seeing that there was a line around the cup.
"What do you think that line's for?" I asked Hermione, tapping her on the shoulder. She barely glanced up from her book.
"It's an age line, silly. Why would Dumbledore not?"
I nodded and went back to my book, realising that the cup's flames burnt red once Cedric put his name in.
"Who else has put their names in?" I asked. Cho looked over from her spot in the corner with some of the other Ravenclaws and sat down next to me.
"Viktor Crum, from Durmstrang and Fleur Decalor from Beauxabatons, for what I remember. I only just got here. I nodded and heard the door open once more to reveal a couple of Gryffindoor twins, with cheers from the others, expecially not Hermione and I, with pieces of paper with their names on it. I shook my head as they walked over and up to Hermione.
"Don't think we could do it, do you think?" They asked her. She shook her head and pointed at the goblet as she spoke.
"That's an age line around the goblet. Dumbledore would be silly if he didn't." She looked at them and grimaced as they sniggered. "Besides, your not even old enough yet" she answered, having a hint of bossiness in her voice. They laughed and walked toward it, talking out a flask each.
"Watch us" they spoke. She shook her head in disappointment and I watched them drink each other's flask and jump into the circle. Everyone cheered as they landed inside and put their names in, but soon enough, the flames from the goblet hit them and they were pulled backwards, growing white hair and beards. They looked at each other in shock and argued. I shook my head and walked away, up the stairs to the Astronomy tower, passing Dumbledore on the way.

The stairs were silent, once or twice a student will walk by and to their common room, but didn't speak. I sighed and walked up to the astronomy tower, where I spotted professor Sinista with a couple of other kids. She smiled as I walked over to the railing and looked up at the clear, starry sky. I heard footsteps behind me and turned around, spotting Georgia.
"Hey... You scared me! Georgia! That wasn't funny" I spoke. She smiled.
"Sorry" She answered. I smiled, knowing that she didn't mean it.
"It's alright." I spoke, turning back around and sitting down with the rest of the class, yawning from sleepiness.
"The planet Eris is in orbit on this very night and the sun is behind the earth. Watch as I show you the planet of all wonders." She spoke, with curiosity in her voice. I smiled and stood there, fascinated by the way she projected the telescope to the wall.
========================================================================================
I walked back down the corridor towards the common room and heard a group of Gryffindors walking down the corridor. I stood there, shocked and ducked behind a wall, but was too late, I fell to the ground, right in front of them, dropping all my belongings and cracking my telescope. They stopped in their tracks and helped me clean up my stuff.
"Thank you" I spoke, picking up my broken telescope. I looked up and spotted the golden trio. Hermione smiled.
"Hello, Casey, is it? Your Luna's twin." She spoke. I nodded.
"Well you haven't had an update, haven't you?" I spoke, with a hint of anger in my voice.
"I'm actually named Caseentina-Rose Lovegood and I'm a year older than Luna. Pretty hard  for me when I found out." I spoke, standing up. Ron looked at me.
"How can you not be her twin, your like identical to her."
"... Glamour" I spoke and muttered. "Suppose to go away when I'm 15"
"So why aren't you in your 4th year like us?" Harry interrupted.
"I only found out at the start of this year and I'm pretty sure my father told Dumbledore to keep me in Luna's year because..." I trailed off at the end.
"Because?" Hermione spoke, with bossiness in her voice. I smiled.
"I'd really like to not talk about it. It's something I was born with"
"Like a disease?" Harry interrupted. I nodded.
"Something like that, I guess"
"Is that why you're always in the infirmary? I saw you after an injury" Ron spoke. Harry nodded. Hermione looked at me and smiled, handing me back my telescope, fixed from a simple Repario spell.
"Thank you." I spoke to her. She nodded and started walking with Harry and Ron, but stopped and turned back around.
"You should see Professor Dumbledore about you being a year older." She spoke, shedding a small smile. I nodded.
"Besides, congratulations on getting the Keeper position for the Ravenclaw Quidditch team" she spoke and turned away, catching up with the others.
"She's the keeper?" I heard Ron speak to Harry as they walked away. I smiled and turned around, but Filch stopped me.
"What are you doing here?" He spoke.
"I was in Astronomy" I answered. He raised his eyebrows and his cat Mrs Norris walked around his feet.
"We'll see" he spoke. "Follow me, I'd better report this to Professor Dumbledore. You're coming with me" he spoke. I rolled my eyes and nodded, walking with him the opposite direction of the Ravenclaw tower, towards Dumbledore's office.
