Conall Wolf

10) Champions

The week went faster then Conall could think of. The classes here are really fun, and there was a lot to discover. The group roamed around the castle every time when they didn't had a class or a meal. They discovered not even the half of it, and they know there are still some secrets they can discover here.

When the group wasn't planning on looking around at the castle, you could find Conall with Katsumi. The awkwardness wasn't powerful enough against Conalls need to see Katsumi, and be around him as much as possible. So Conall kept looking out for him and they hang out a lot. And over the days the awkwardness was completely gone.

Just like this moment. Conall and Katsumi are sitting near the lake looking at the sun going down. Katsumi is laying down at the ground, with his head resting on Conall his lap. Conall smiles bright at the sight and he stares in front of him at the sunset. The two of them are talking about things that happened last year.

After a while they come across the subject of the triwizard tournament and Conall shoots up straight. Katsumi sits up and looks confusing at Conall.

"What is going on?" Katsumi asks.

"The triwizard tournament. They are about to choose the champions.-" Conall looks stressed and at this point he wished he has a watch. He just takes Katsumi his arm and he looks at his watch to see how late it his. When he realises it is almost time before the champions get chosen Conall really starts to stress. Conall stands up quickly and he takes his stuff that are all around him. He stressfully puts everything in his bag. "-We have to go, I can't miss this."

"Shoot, that's right. We have to go!" Katsumi says, who forgot the time as well. He packs his stuff and they run back to the castle.

When they enter the the great hall they see it is completely packed. The slowly and quietly go to the side of the Great Hall, where they find Faolán, Thierry and Roselyn. They are sitting and standing at the side of the wall, because the tables are full of people.

"Where have you been.-" Roselyn whispers stern. "-They are about to start, you are almost to late Conall."

"I'm sorry, I lost track of time. We were outside and I just totally forgot it alright. But I'm here, see. Nothing to worry about." Conall whispers back quick.

Roselyn was about to say something back but professor Murray was first and she starts to talk. "Hello everyone, I am glad you could all make it for this special moment."

Roselyn gives Conall a deadly glare and Conall quickly looks away. That is where his look comes across with Katsumi and he smiles at him, Conall smiles back and now he looks at Faolán. He winks as a sign he shouldn't listen to her and then they focus back on what professor Murray has to say.

"As you all know, tonight the Goblet of Fire will choose a champion for each school. Remember the words I said a week ago, if you get chosen you will stand alone. It takes a lot of bravely and knowledge to go through the three tasks, and at the end of year we will know who of the three champions will be the ultimate winner." Professor Murray continues.

Conall looks proud at Thierry and Faolán who are participating as well. He is glad he can share this moment with them, also really nervous. He is so scared of what is about to happen, he wants to be chosen so badly. He nervously ticks with his fingers on his legs and his hands starts to sweat. When he sees the fire of the Goblet start to change from blue to purple he swallows and his heart start to race. He sees a piece of paper flying out of the Goblet, and it flutters down, right in the hand of professor Murray. She blows out the piece that is burning a bit and then she folds it open.

"The champion of Beauxbatons is..." Professor Murray says slowly. Conall his heart just races more and more. The next words will change his life forever, even though he doesn't even know it yet.
