Hermione's POV


The first task was scary I mean Dragons are they serious! I sighed as we gathered in a circle.



"For your first task each champion must retrieve a golden egg guarded by a dragon. Please pick your dragons." Everyone went then it was my turn.


"Hungarian Horntail," I groaned. Great I just had to get the angriest dragon.


Fleur went first getting a bit burnt. Next was Viktor who came back with serious burns and scratches. Then Cedric went and he came back with a bit of a limp. Now it was my turn.


I walked into the arena and looked to see an angry dragon. I dodged out of its way. "Okay. Let's try this," I shot Stupefy at it. Until it was Stunned and wasn't moving.


I quickly got the egg but the dragon got up and smashed me against the arena wall breaking a few ribs. I hold in the scream and run still holding the egg.


I ran back into the tent. Ribs screaming for medical attention.

Delphine's POV


I was at Hogwarts for the tournament checking out this Hermione Riddle that Rita Skeeter wrote about. I must say I am impressed but I need to know more then just her name.


I walked into the infirmary tent that held Miss. Riddle.


There was a blonde and a red head in there with her. The red head turned around and I stopped breathing for a minute.


"Who are you?" The Red head asked and I looked her up and down, "Delphine. Delphine Lestrange. Pleasure to meet you now I am here on business." The blonde stood in front of the two younger girls.


"That can wait until after 'Ermione is 'ealed." Her French accent was dreamy but I think I'd prefer the little freckled girl. "What is your name," I grabbed the red head girl's hand.


"Ginny. Now please leave Mione alone she needs rest," Ginny told me and I sighed. "I have an army of death eaters wanting to know if we have found our Princess so it can't really wait."


Ginny put her hands on my shoulders, "don't wake her I'll tell you what you need to know." I looked down at this girl who is 3 inches shorter then me.


"Is she the Dark Princess?" I asked and Ginny looked to Hermione then to me, "she is Hermione Riddle daughter to Thomas and Esmeralda Riddle." I smiled, "oh thank merlin I thought they killed her."


"Killed her?" The blonde asked and I nod, "yes Dumbledore and his army. He killed her mother then took her. If we would've known we would've been here sooner. The Princess can return home. The Prophecy will come true."


Ginny looked up at me, "she can't go anywhere and what Prophecy?" I looked down at Ginny, "she will bring back the Dark Lord this year."


I looked over to the sleeping girl then back to the little red head, "I wish only to protect her Miss. Ginny." I smiled and I walked over brushing a hair out of her face, "I'm older now I can protect her properly."
