"E-elizabeth! Elizabeth!" Someone called out as they made their way through the crowd, she turned around a little confused who was calling for her but she saw it was Potter.

"Potter?" she called out a little confused, he gave her an awkward smile, he grabbed her wrist and took her somewhere where there were less people.

"Dragons..." were the fist things that came out of his mouth, she looked at him confused "That's the first task, dragons" he explained a little more, she looked at him with wide eyes, there was no way that was their first task but the face expression Potter had, told her everything.

"Do the others know about it?" She asked.

"Yeah, I'm about to tell Cedric actually" He replied, she nodded and wished him the best of luck with that, she would have gone with him but she couldn't wrap her mind over the first task.

Dragons? Are they are trying to kill them, her or Potter barely know any advance spells they can use unlike the other three champions. She'll agree that it's a little unfair for the two but she couldn't blame anyone, it was shocking that the two are part of the tournament.

Elizabeth jumped, when she felt someone place their hand on her shoulder "You good El? I've been calling out your name?" Sidney asked, looking at her worried, she nodded and gave her a soft smile.

"Yeah...I actually found out something but where are the others?" She said, now noticing that the rest of her friends weren't there.

"There actually in the common room, Blake might have or might not have broken another girl's heart..." Sidney explained, Elizabeth sighed, that boy wasn't going to learn from his actions.

"And I assume Chloe is teaching him a lesson?" She asked, Sidney nodded, they walked to the common rooms, when they walked in, they were in for a sight, Chloe scolding Blake who looked un-bothered but just nodded at whatever she was saying.

"Didn't know we're having a family meeting, I would have made some popcorn" Elizabeth commented taking the spot next to Reggie, ruffling his hair.

"This is not a family meeting, mostly when she's scolding me!" Blake said, pointing his finger at Chloe, who sat down next to Sidney but glared at Blake.

"I wouldn't have to scold you, if you knew how to control your hormones" Chloe replied, he just mumbled something under his breath.

"El got some news about the first task" Sidney brought up, they all looked at Elizabeth who was playing with Reggie hair, she looked up when she felt eyes on her.

"Yeah, Potter actually told me about it..." She began, looking around the common room, only noticing a few people before motioning her friends to get closer "Apparently the first task is dragons" she whispered, they couldn't believe their ears.

"Are you kidding? They're not really going to make you guys fight dragons?" Chloe asked, Elizabeth shrugged, she shouldn't be surprised, people have died from the tournament.

"But hey...at least you can brag to people that you fought against a dragon" Reggie spoke up, looking up at Elizabeth, she laughed softly and brushed some hair out of his face.

"Ok but imagine bragging about how you fought a dragon and surviving it? Harry Potter who now?" Sidney jokes, Ethan shook his head at the ginger girl but he still laughed, Chloe covered her mouth to suppress a laugh, Blake broke into laughter, Reggie looked at her proud and wiping a fake tear, Elizabeth laughed softly.

Elizabeth looked at her friends, happy she was able to find people who she can call family and bring her mood up, with simple jokes or words. She wouldn't trade anything for her friends, no matter what the cost.
