Accio Imagine ~ George Weasley

Pure envy (Part 2 / 4)

All too soon the 24th of November was here and after lunch your boyfriend and his twin accompanied you to the tent where the Champions had to assemble before all started. Right now you felt very insecure and you feared you might not survive. It were dragons after all. Ere you went into the tent, George pulled you back and hugged you tight.

"Don't worry about it, love. You are well prepared. I'm sure you'll sweep the board" you smiled when he pecked your forehead. "I'll keep my fingers crossed but I don't think you need luck"

"Do you still envy me?" you asked quietly and also looked at Fred

"What kind of question is that? Of course we do!"

"If there was any possibility I'd become you to rock that damn thing" Fred patted your back. "But you'll do just fine"

"Thank you guys" you said smiling. "I'm glad you're here with me"

"A pity we can't be with you when you have to deal with that dragons"

"But you've come as far as possible. And for that I'm thankful" you kissed your boyfriend.

"I love you" he whispered.

"Love you too"

Inside the tent you heard what the task was: getting a Golden egg from one of the dragons. Bagman took a small bag and wanted you to put your hand in and take out your dragon. You were the third one and with a strange feeling you pulled out a miniature dragon.

"Ah the Swedish Short Snout for Miss Moody" your father who was standing behind you patted your shoulder. Around the dragon's neck, you saw a '1'. "Alright" Bagman said when Harry got his dragon as well. "The number is the order in which you will come out. Miss Moody, you'll be the first one. Just come out when you hear the whistle. Harry, can I have a word with you outside?" They both left and you had to sit down in order to relax. Your father and the three headmasters left and you were alone with the three Champions. Somehow you wanted to talk with them but you let it be instead you tried to come up with a plan what you could do.

The blow of the whistle was like a blow to your stomach. When you got up and left the tent, you saw Harry who nodded in your direction but you couldn't return it. Then you were in the enclosure and the spectators cheered and clapped like mad what didn't help you concentrate. You didn't bother searching the stands for your friends but you looked out for your dragon and the egg. Of course it was near the eggs. Bagman started with the comments.

"Ladies first, we've got our first Champion, (Y/N) Moody. What will she do to get the egg from the breeding Swedish Short Snout?" One thing you knew for sure was that you had to get the dragon away from the eggs, then you could go and get it. So you picked up a rock from the ground and flung it to the other side of the pen, hoping it would be enough. Unfortunately it wasn't and you decided to make another, bigger, stone levitating in order to distract the dragon. This time it looked up and stared at it. With a grin you made it move closer to the dragon, then forced it away and let it fall to the ground with a thud. To your relief the beast got up but didn't seem convinced to go over and have a look.

"Fuck" you muttered and realised you had to do more to lure it away from the eggs. And that was the one time you were glad that your boyfriend was one of the Weasley twins. "Bombarda" you said with a firm voice, pointing your wand at the stone you had just dropped. Small pieces of rock flew everywhere and you instinctively ducked. The Swedish Short Snout reacted otherwise. It made a strange sound, jumped up and hurried over to where the explosion happened.

"Charming" Bagman yelled "But will it give her enough time to get the egg?" Only now you remembered you had to do something and you went over to the nest but weren't quick enough. You didn't hesitate and quickly conjured another explosion in the direction you wanted the dragon. This time it turned around and went even closer, unfortunately its tail hit out and swept you off your feet. "Oh no" Bagman commented and you had problems getting up. From what you suggested your leg might be broken, at least there was no way you could get over to take away the Golden egg. That was the moment you realised you didn't had to get to the egg. Not when you could make the egg come to you. Making sure the dragon was still occupied otherwise by causing a third explosion you turned towards the egg.
