EDITED

It was finally Halloween, and the champions were being picked out of the goblet.

Elodie, Lee, Fred and George were sat at their usual spaces at the Gryffindor table.

"Now! The moment you've all been waiting for. The champion selection!"

Professor Dumbledore raised his hand, and dimmed the fires that lit the room.

Everyone was sat, shaking in their seats.
Harry was sat on the other side of Elodie.

Dumbledore raised his hands again, but this time it was towards the goblet.
All of a sudden, the goblet fire, turned red and spat out a name.

"The Durmstrang champion is, Viktor Krum."
Cheers erupted to congratulate him.

Viktor went up, and shook Dumbledore's hand. Dumbledore led him to a room behind the hall.

Once again, the goblet fire turned red. And spat out another name.
"The champion for Beauxbatons is, Fleur Delacour."
She walked up in shock and was congratulated by dozens of people.
Dumbledore repeated his actions from before and shook her hand, and led her to the room behind the hall.

For what everyone thought would be the last time, the goblet burned red and spat out another name.
"The Hogwarts champion, Cedric Diggory!"
The entire hall erupted in cheers for him, as he was going to lead Hogwarts to victory.
He walked proudly to the front, and winked at El. Hermione took notice of this and kicked her under the table.

"Excellent! We now have our three champions! But in the end, only one will go down in history. Only one will hoist this choice of championship. This vessel of victory, the Triwizard Cup!"
Dumbledore flicked his hand towards the cup, which glowed a bright shade of blue.

As El was looking at the cup, she noticed Snape looking at something strangely behind her. She turned around and saw the goblet glowing red, but this shade was angrier. Darker. It shook and spat out two pieces of paper.

Dumbledore caught them, and read them aloud.
"The potters... Elodie and Harry Potter?"

Fred nudged her, which caused her to turn around to see the entire Gryffindor table staring at her.
"Did you put your name in? Without telling us?" Fred asked her angrily
"Are you seriously asking that? I didn't want anything to do with it!" She protested

"No... no..." Hagrid shook his head

"ELODIE AND HARRY POTTER!" Dumbledore's scream was deafening

Fred shoved her forwards which caused her to stand up. She grabbed Harry's arm and brought him to the front with her.
They looked around to see every person in the room, looking at them with disgust.

As they reached the front, Dumbledore handed them their piece of paper each.

Dumbledore gave them a deathly glare, as they walked to the opposite side, to the room behind the hall.

"They're cheats!"
"They're not even seventeen yet!"
Murmurs could be heard all around

Snape stared at the pair as they made their way to the door.
