SCARLET'S POV
After that...interesting incident on the train, Harry, Ron, Hermione, Kirstin and I all got off the train and walked to Hogwarts, we arived and walked in the Great Hall with everyone else before sitting down at the Gryffindor table. Dumbledore walked up and began to talk,
"Now we're all settled in and sorted, I'd like to make an announcement. This castle will not only be your home this
year but home to some very special guests as well. You see Hogwarts has been chosen..." suddenly, Dumbledore was cut off when
Mr. Filch came running in, actually, I don't know what he was doing, he had one hand on his leg while he sort of galloped over to
Dumbledore, it was quite funny, once he got to Dumbledore he whispered something in Dumbledore's ear before running out in the same
direction. Dumbledore looked at us,
"So Hogwarts has been chosen to host a legendary event. The Tri-Wizard tournament. Now for those of you who do not know,
the tri-wizard tournament brings together three schools for a series of magical contests. From each school a single
contestant is selected to compete. Now let me be clear, if chosen you stand alone. And trust me when I say these
contests are not for the faint hearted, but more of that later. For now please join me in welcoming the lovely ladies
of the Beauxbatons Academy of magic and their headmistress Madam Maxime " Suddenly the door burst open and a bunch of girls
came strutting inside, they must have been veellas because all the guys were literally drooling over them, behind them was a large
lady at least 6'9, that must be their teacher, they danced around the room and finished by bowing to the crowed, all the guys cheered
while us girls just glared that them,
" And now our friends from the north, please greet the proud sons of Durmstrang and the high master Igor Karkaroff. " Suddenly the doors
opened once again, but this time a bunch of muscular, handsome guys walked in, wow, they're hot, they also did a dance but they
used fire along with it, they finished with a fire breathing dragon that left all the girls breathless, we all clapped, well, the guys didn't.
After, the girls went to sit at the Ravenclaw table while the guys sat at the Slytherin table, Then we all turned and looked at Dumbledore,
"Your attention please! I would like to say a few words. Eternal glory, that is what awaits the student who wins
the tri-wizard tournament. But to do this that student must survive three tasks. Three extremely dangerous tasks. " Dumbledore said,
"Wicked " I heard Fred say beside me, I giggled and looked back at Dumbledore,
"For this reason the ministry has seen fit to impose a new rule. To explain all this we have the head of the department
of international magic cooperation Mister Bartimus Crouch " Suddenly, the lights went out and thunder came inside, we all started screaming
until someone stopped the lightning, we all looked over and saw a man with a false eyeball, it was moving everywhere until it stopped on Harry and I.
"Bloody hell that's mad-eye moody " I heard Ron say, Hermione and I looked at him,
"Alastor Moody? the aura? " we both asked, Ron nodded,
"He was a catcher. Half the cells in Azkaban are full thanks to him. He's supposed to be mad as a hatter though these days. " he
replied, we both nodded and looked back at him, I don't know why, but I had a bad feeling about him.
"My old friend, thanks for coming " Dumbledore said, Moody nodded,
"Stupid roof " he replied, taking a swing from some bottle, I scrunched up my nose; watching him gag before swallowing the substance.
"What do you think is in that bottle? " Kirstin asked, I looked at her,
"I don't know, but I don't think its pumpkin juice " I replied, we then looked back and I saw Crouch up in front of everyone talking; I didn't really listen because I was too busy glaring at him. I still haven't forgave what he did to me.
"After much deliberation the ministry has concluded that for their own safety no student under the age of seventeen
shall be allowed to put forth their name for the tri-wizard tournament. This decision is final. " after he finished the crowed went wild,
"That's rubbish! you don't know what you're doing! " I heard George scream, what they don't understand is how dangerous this tournament
can be, suddenly Dumbledore screamed,
"SILENCE!! " he yelled, we all went quiet and looked at him, he then took off a blanket that contained a cup in it,
"The goblet of fire. Anyone wishing to submit themselves for the tournament merely write their name upon a piece
of parchment and throw it in the flame before this hour on Thursday night. Do not do so lightly, if chosen there's
no turning back. As from this moment the tri-wizard tournament has begun " Once he finished we went back to our dinner, no one
said anything after.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
CLASSThe next day we were in DADA, I heard that we were getting a new teacher today, I'm pretty sure its going to be Moody, we were all sitting around
just talking, I was sitting beside Seamus, we were looking through our new textbooks when I heard the door slam open,
everyone went quiet as we watched Moody storm inside,
"Ministry malcontent. And your new defence against the dark arts teacher. I'm here because Dumbledore asked me, end of
story, goodbye, the end. Any questions? " We were all silent, after a few seconds he continued talking,
"When it comes to the dark arts, I believe in a practical approach. But first, which of you can tell me how many unforgivable
curses there are? " I raised up my hand but Hermione beat me to it,
"Three sir " she answered, though she sounded a little frightened; I would be too. He came off kind of aggressive.
"And they are so named? " He continued,
"Because they are unforgivable. Use of any one of them will..." But Moody cut her off,
"Will earn you a one way ticket to Azkaban. Correct. Now the ministry says you're too young to see what these curses do.
I say different! You need to know what you're up against, you need to be prepared"
I looked over and saw Seamus take a piece of gum out of his mouth and put it underneath the desk.
"Ew" I whispered
"you need to find somewhere else to put
your chewing gum other than the underside of your desk Mr Finnigan! " I looked at him wide eyed.
"Aw no way, the old codger can see out the back of his head " I heard Seamus whisper, suddenly Moody turned around and threw the chalk
towards Seamus and I, but we ducked as I heard a squeal from behind,
"And hear across classrooms! " I heard the teacher say, but I wasn't listening, I was to busy looking around to see who made that squeal,
I turn around and right behind me is the girl from the train, I think they call her Alexis? yeah Alexis,
"That hurt! what was that for you git?! " she yelled, I took a good look at her and started to laugh, I had only just realized at that
moment that the chalk that was thrown smeared all over her face, so she looked like she sniffed a little too much crack,
"Haha what happened to your face? had a little too much crack in your cereal this morning? " I asked, the whole room broke out in laughter
as Alexis glared at me,
"Haha so funny I forgot to laugh " she replied, I turned around and listened to Moody once again,
"Now, anyway as I was saying before I was interrupted" He glared at Alexis and I as I raised my hands up in surrender.
"The three curses, lets see one shall we? WEASLEY! " Ron jumped,
"Yes? " he asked,
"STAND! " Moody replied, Ron quickly got up from his seat,
"Give us a curse " Moody asked, Ron's eyes widened for a moment before nodding.
"Well, my dad did tell me about one...The imperious curse. " Ron replied, Moody nodded,
"Ahhh yes, your father would know all about that. Gave the ministry quite a bit of grief a few years ago. Perhaps
this will show you why. " suddenly he pulled out a HUGE spider from his desk, if you don't know already, I'm scared of spiders, have been ever since second year when we had to go in the forbbidon forest and meet Aragog. I shivered at the thought. I watched him take the spider out of the container, it tried to jump and I quickly grabbed into Seamus' arm.
Seamus looked at me weirdly but I was too busy staring at the huge ass mother fucking spider that
was In front of me, suddenly I felt something crawl up my arm, I squealed and jumped, I turned around and realized it was Alexis,
"Awe whats wrong Scarlet? you're not afraid of a little spider are you? " I glared at her and turned around,
"Don't worry they're completely harmless " I heard Moody say as he passed the spider around the class. He had it do many tricks that caused everyone (but me) to laugh. When the spider reached me I grabbed
onto the closest thing that was beside me...Seamus' hand, ops. When it passed I quickly let go of his hand,
"Sorry " I whispered, I looked back,
"Talented isn't she? What shall I have her do next? Jump out the window?" suddenly he smashed the spider up against the window, I felt guilty all of a sudden,
"Drown herself? " he continued as he put the spider over the water, he then put the spider back on the desk,
"Scores of witches and wizards have claimed that they only did you-know-whose bidding under the influence of the imperious
curse. But here's the rub, how do we sort out the liars? Another.. another..Come on come on. Longbottom is it? Up. " Neville got up
and walked over to the front of the room,
"Professor Sprout tells me you have an aptitude for herbology " Moody stated, Neville nodded,
"There's the um... The cruciatus curse. " Neville continued, Moody nodded,
"Correct! Correct! come, come. Particularly nasty. The torture curse. " Suddenly he started torturing the poor spider, I saw sweat
running down Neville's face and neck, I looked at Moody and yelled,
"Stop it! Can't you see it's bothering him, stop it! " Moody stopped and looked at me,
"Perhaps you could give us the last unforgivable curse Miss Black. " I shook my head, I felt tears coming down my cheeks because
I remembered what had happened to my mom, Moody then put the spider on my desk and said the killing curse, it then died on my desk,
I started shaking as I felt Seamus looking at me,
"The killing curse. Only one person is known to have survived it. And he's sitting in this room. " Moody said, as he looks at Harry,
then he took a swing of his juice again, the bell then rang and I got up and ran out of the room. One things for sure, I hate our new DATA teacher.
