PREVIOUSLY IN A NEW BEGINNING

Harry and Alaya are excited to go to the Quidditch World Cup with their friends.

Soon enough, the whole bunch of quidditch fans got in position for the portkey with their stuff shrunk and placed in their pockets. The house elves had even packed them food. Harry had never travelled by portkey before, so he didn't know what to expect.

Exactly at 9:04 AM, Harry felt like he was being hooked at the navel as he vanished in a swirl of colours. The next thing he knew, his feet slammed into the ground and he only kept his balance by grabbing Remus' arm. He then noticed Sirius helping Neville up, Severus helping Alaya and Minerva help Susan and Ted do the same with Dora. "9:04 special portkey." A wizard called out.

"Yeah, thanks." "Just go through those trees where you'll see a man named Roberts." Sirius led them to a man standing by a kissing gate. "Are you Mr. Roberts?" asked Sirius. "Aye, that's me." The man answered. "I booked a place under Black." "That's right. You're next to the woods in the end." He said. "Thanks" said Sirius as handed over the cash.

He set the tent up with a flick of his wand. It looked like a normal 2-man tent. But on the inside, it was huge. Harry and Neville were sharing a room, Sirius and Remus in one, Severus and Ted in one and Susan, Alaya and Dora in one. Minerva had a room of her own. "Kids, Come on. We need to go find the Weasleys." Called out Remus.

The teens ran out of the tent, dragging Dora with them. The adults laughed at their antics as they followed them out. It didn't take too long for the group to find a large group of red heads a few tents down. The adults then sent the trio, Susan, Neville and Tonks to gather water. The soon-to-be fourth years stopped to see a lot of their friends before they went on their way.

When they reached the water tap, Hermione, Susan and Tonks had to duck due to a fit of giggles as an elderly wizard stood nearby wearing a woman's dressing gown, speaking about his privates.

They returned back to the Weasley tent soon after they filled their share of buckets to find Fred and George playing with matchsticks to try and light a fire. "Where have you guys been?" they asked. "Sorry. Got a bit side-tracked."
