*Note: when Crouch Junior is mentioned as being present or talked about as if he's in the school, he's disguised as Moody.*


~Hollie's POV~

As I read what the paper says about the events of the Quidditch World Cup the sweet trolley comes round.

"Anything from the trolley?"

"Packet of Drooble's," Ron begins.  "And a Liquorice Wand."

He takes out his money.

"On second thoughts, just the Drooble's."

"It's alright, I'll get it," Harry says.  "Don't worry."

"Just the Drooble's.  Thanks," Ron says offensively.

"Two Pumpkin Pasties, please," I hear a girl say and Harry looks round.  "Thank you."

"Anything sweet for you, dear?" the trolley lady asks my brother.

"Oh, no, I'm not hungry.  Thank you."

"This is horrible," I say.  "How can the Ministry not know who conjured it? Wasn't there any security or...?"

"Loads according to Dad," Ron says.  "That's what worried them so much.  Happened right under their noses."

I notice Harry scratching his forehead where the scar is.

"It's hurting again, isn't it? Your scar?" I ask.

"I'm fine!"

"Don't lie, Harry," someone says and we look up to see Bella and Edward by the door.

They come in and sit down with us.

"Mine's been hurting since that image appeared in the sky at the Quidditch match."

"You were there?" I ask.

"Yeah, I went with the Cullens."

"And that man was Barty Crouch Junior," Edward says.  "But again we have no proof."

We all look at each other but none of us say anything.


~Bella's POV~

At dinner on our first day back at Hogwarts, Dumbledore stands at the podium.

"Well, now we're all settled in and sorted, I'd like to make an announcement."

The door opens.

"This castle will not only be your home this year..."

Filch runs from the door to the podium.

"But home to some very special guests as well.  You see, Hogwarts has been chosen..."

Filch reaches the podium.

"Yes, what is it?" Dumbledore asks.

He whispers to the headmaster and he whispers back before Filch runs back to the door.

"So Hogwarts has been chosen to host a legendary event: The Triwizard Tournament.  For those of you who do not know, the Triwizard Tournament brings together three schools for a series of magical contests.  From each school, a single student is selected to compete.  Now let me be clear.  If chosen, you stand alone.  And trust me when I say these contests are not for the faint-hearted.  But more of that later.  For now, please join me in welcoming the lovely ladies of the Beauxbatons Academy of Magic..."

The door opens and a group of girls walk in all wearing blue.

"And their headmistress, Madame Maxime."
