Ah another summer ran by and I was back at my home away from home. Everyone had already eaten and Dumbledore signalled another speech. I sat next to Gracie and Katie and the speech started.

"So!" said Dumbledore smiling around at us all. "Now that we are fed and watered, I must ask once more for your attention while I give out a few notices. Mr. Filch, the caretaker, has asked me to tell you that the list of objects forbidden inside the castle this year has been extended to include Screaming Yo-yos, Fanged Frisbees, and Ever-Bashing Boomerangs. The full list comprises some four hundred and thirty-seven items, I believe, and can be viewed in Mr. Filch's office if anybody would like to check it" Everyone's corner of mouth twitched, trying not to laugh.

"It is also my painful duty to inform you that the inter-house Quidditch Cup will not take place this year," Dumbledore continued, "This is due to an event that will be starting in October and continuing though out the school year, taking up much of the teachers' time and energy but I am sure you will all enjoy it immensely. I have great pleasure in announcing that this year at Hogwarts-"

The doors burst open, the ceilings usually starry skies turned into thunder and rain, interrupting Dumbledore. A figure loomed in the shadows and a man stood there, hood up covering his face.

Everyone turned to look at the man and every eye in the room followed his tracks. As he took of his hood, I could see one electric blue eye, as big as a galleon, the other normal and brown.

Scary.

With ever step, a dull tapping was heard. He made his way to the teachers table slowly.

The stranger reached Dumbledore. He stretched out a hand that was as badly scarred as his face, and Dumbledore shook it, muttering something. He seemed to be making some kind if enquiry of the stranger who shook his head unsmilingly and replied in an undertone. Dumbledore nodded and gestured the man to an empty seat on his right-hand side.

"May I introduce our new Defence against the Dark Arts Teacher," said Dumbledore brightly, into the silence, "Professor Moody. "

Normally everyone would clap and welcome new professors but only Dumbledore and Hagrid clapped but they quickly realised how awkward it was and stopped.

Yikes.

"As I was saying," he said smiling at the sea of students before him, all of whom were still gazing transfixed at Professor Moody, "we are to have the honor of hosting a very exciting event over the coming months, an event which has not been held for over a century. It is my very great pleasure to inform you that the Triwizard Tournament will be taking place at Hogwarts this year,"

"You're JOKING!" said Fred Weasley loudly.

Oh Fred.

Every speck of tension floated out the room as everyone laughed at his outburst. I signalled that I'd be right back to Gracie and Katie. The gave me an okay and I snuck to the gryffindor table to sit next to Fred.

"Hi cupcake." He whispered.

"Hi idiot. I'm just gonna sit here cause Cedric is snogging Cho." I tilted my head towards Cedric and Cho. He looked over then grinned at me.
