ARTEMIS LUPIN HAD FAILED TO STAY AWAY FROM GEORGE WEASLEY. She told herself that it was because the drama within her friends had become too much and she needed an escape. It might also be because he would often find her.
She climbed up the stadium stairs with immense effort, trying to find a seat for the first task. The first task was dragons, according to Harry who had gotten a up close peak at them before the event. Artemis was not sure how he planned to defeat a dragon, but she imagined it would be some reckless and undeniably stupid.
"Artemis!" George Weasley called out over the crowd, waving for her to come sit up with them. She didn't see any other option, but to make her way towards him.
She slipped past other students who were decked out in Gryffindor colors. They were one of the rare ones. Artemis found herself standing between the twins, looking over the huge areana.
"Who do you think is going to win?"George asked,"We're taking bets."
"Of course you are,"Artemis breathed out a small laugh,"My heart says Harry."
"You have to say that because he's your best friend,"Fred replied."Who do you really think will win?"
"Cedric,"She answered,"All of them, I have no idea. They all have more experience than Harry."
"Can't believe you went against Harry!"Fred teasingly remaindered her. She hit his shoulder playfully.
"You lot are annoying, y'know that?"
"Why, yes,"George answered,"You only tell us every day."
"Why do I hang out with you idiots?"
"Because we're cute—,"Fred replied.
"And you adore us,"George finished.
"It's unfortunate, really."

"Three of our champions have now faced their dragons and so each one of them will proceed to the next task. And now our fourth and final contestant,"The speaker announced.
Artemis screamed out Harry's name with glee, cheering him on as best she could."Yes, Harry!!"
Harry entered the rocky arena with the crowd cheering his name. Once he caught sight of the golden egg, he made a run for it, but the dragon appeared. He was forced to retreat behind a rock as the dragon breathed fire at him. Harry stumbled and fell around the arena.
Artemis gasped, glancing down at Ron and Hermione below her who looked just as nervous. She hadn't even noticed how a streak of silver appeared in the purple of her hair.
"Your wand, Harry!"Hermione shrieked in panic."Your wand!"
He must have heard her because she drew his wand and began to cast some sort of spell. It was a matter of minutes before his Firebolt came bolting towards him. Harry raced towards it, jumping on it and flying off.
