AN: And I'm back! This is honestly my favorite movie, which Cassie still asks me why, but you see… I have no clue. I just like it! I guess cause this is when everything starts getting going… to all end up so tragically. And you wonder why I'm messed up! *grins* Oh! Please don't leave a review if you're just going to say it's a marysue/jane story… I've gotten them all three stories before and honestly, I don't care. It's always on the first chapter too. Perhaps if you kept reading… So anyway, sit back, relax, and enjoy!
Recap: Paige is Harry's younger sister, she's a year behind him, and she's in Slytherin even though she spends a lot of time with the Gryffidors. Remus and Tonks are her godparents and Sirius and Tonks are Harry's. Remus and Tonks are already married and I shrank the age gap between them because it works better for my story that way. Paige's wand is the twin of Bellatrix's. Sirius is not an escaped convict! And most importantly, Snape is nice towards Paige because she looks like Lily. *breathes* I think that's all!
Disclaimer: I only own Paige!

Paige grunted as Remus poked her nose. It was too early to get up.
"Mrs. Weasley said to go get the others up, breakfast is ready" he said. Paige groaned, but threw the covers off. Remus laughed as she rolled out of bed without opening her eyes. "Don't you need to…" he trailed off as Paige walked into the doorframe. Paige raised her hand to her head. "…see?" he finished with a laugh.
"Bloody door" Paige muttered as she ran up to the boys' room. She opened the door to see Hermione waking Ron. "Good, you get the hard one" Paige said with a smirk. Hermione smiled at her as Paige moved to Harry's side. He looked like he was having a nightmare. "Harry? Harry wake up. Harry!" Her brother sat up with a jolt, his breathing heavy. "You ok?"
"Bad dream. Hey Hermione." Hermione smiled at him.
"Come on boys, get up. Mrs. Weasley says breakfast is ready!" Paige said. Harry threw his legs over the side of his bed as Ron rolled out of bed and headed out the door with Hermione. "What's wrong Harry?"
"Just a bad dream, I think." Paige looked at him worriedly, but let it go as Harry stood up and wrapped an arm around her shoulders, leading her downstairs.

"Where are we actually going, Mr. Weasley?" Paige asked as they walked through the forest.
"Haven't the foggiest, but keep up!" Suddenly two men jumped out of a tree. Paige and the others took a step back.
"Arthur! It's about time" the older one said.
"Sorry Amos. Some of us had a bit of a sleepy start." Paige snorted. A bit? "This is Amos Diggory everyone, he works with me at the ministry. And this strapping young lad must be Cedric, am I right?" Paige knew he looked familiar, but she couldn't figure out why, but now she remembered. He was in Hufflepuff.
"Yes sir" Cedric answered with a smile. Amos' eyes lit up as he looked past Arthur.
"Merlin's beard, you two must be the Potter children." Harry nodded.
"Yes sir" he responded. Amos moved forward and shook their hands, surprising both of them.
"Great, great pleasure." Paige smiled.
"Pleasure meeting you too sir." Amos pulled away and led Arthur up a rather large hill. Paige groaned as she saw the boot. A portkey. They all grabbed hold and Paige clenched her eyes closed as the boot started spinning them and they were thrown. Amos, Cedric, and Arthur landed on their feet.
"Too many times with Tonks, Paige?" Arthur asked. Paige stuck her tongue out at him as a hand appeared in her vision. Paige smiled up and Cedric as he helped her to her feet.
"Thanks" she muttered. Cedric smiled at her as they continued on, over a hill. Paige froze when she saw the massive group of tents and people. The noise was welcoming as a distraction for leaving Remus on the full moon. He had assured her it was fine and to go have fun, but she still felt guilty.
"Well kids, welcome to the Quidditch World Cup!" Mr. Weasley said. They made their way through the crowds, heading towards a small tent.
"Parting of the waves I think old chap, see you at the match" Amos said. Cedric turned to Paige.
"Would you like to come with?" Paige smiled at him regretfully.
"Not right now, save me a place at the match?" Cedric smiled and nodded, leaving with his father. Harry smirked at his sister knowingly as they stepped inside the spacious tent.
"Home sweet home" Arthur sighed. "Girls, choose a bunk and unpack. Ron, get out of the kitchen we're all hungry."
"Yeah get out of the kitchen Ron" the twins said in unison. Paige frowned at them. Arthur turned to them.
"Feet off the table." The twins pulled their feet off the table.
"Feet off the table" they chorused. As soon as Mr. Weasley turned his back the twins had their feet on the table again. Paige rolled her eyes at the two.

"Blimey Dad, how far up are we?" Ron asked as they continued their trek up to their seats. Paige curled her lip as Lucius and Draco Malfoy looked up with a grin.
"Well put it this way, if it rains," Lucius paused, "you'll be the first to know." Draco smirked.
"Father and I are in the minister's box, by personal invitation of Cornelius Fudge himself."
"Don't boast Draco, there's no need with these people. Although, Paige does put Slytherin to shame." He smirked.
"Just because I'm not an evil bastard doesn't mean I put your filthy house to shame" Paige spat. Lucius used the end of his cane to catch her hand between the snake head and the railing.
"Do enjoy yourself, won't you? While you can" he sneered. He pulled his cane away and Harry wrapped an arm around her shoulders, leading her away. Paige pulled away and stormed up the rest of the way, she stood next to Cedric as the game began. She tuned out the game as best she could, she needed time to think.

Paige laughed as she listened to Ron's love for Krum. He and the twins almost looked drunk. Paige turned towards the door as a loud crash sounded. Arthur pushed past as he went to check out what was going on. Fred chuckled.
"Sounds like the Irish have got their pride on." Arthur rushed back in, grabbing Ginny.
"Stop! Stop it! It's not the Irish. We've got to get out of here. Now!" Arthur pulled the girls forward as everyone left the tent. "Get back to the portkey everybody, and stick together. Fred, George… Ginny is your responsibility." The twins nodded and they all turned the opposite direction as the figures carrying torches. Paige was pulled away from Harry.
"Harry!" she screamed. George grabbed her arm and pulled her away. "George, let go! Harry!" George shook his head.
"Harry will be fine, we have to get you to safety." Paige looked back as George dragged her forward. Where was her brother?

"Harry!" Paige called out as she ran back to the destruction site. "Harry!" He turned as she came running over to him, throwing her arms around his neck. Ron and Hermione came running after her.
"Been looking for you for ages. Thought we lost you" Ron said. Harry nodded and rubbed his sister's back. It explained the death grip on his neck. Harry looked into the sky, one hand rubbing his scar.
"What is that?" Paige and the others looked up at the snake and skull. Just then, a group of people apparated in and fired at them. Harry covered Paige as they ducked out of the way.
"Stop! Stop that's my son!" Arthur rushed past the group firing on them. They lowered their wands as Harry helped Paige up. "Are you all alright?" They nodded as the leader stepped forward.
"Which of you conjured this? Do not lie! You have been discovered at the scene of the crime!" Paige was confused.
"Crime?" Harry asked. Apparently Harry was too.
"Barty, they're just kids" Arthur argued.
"What crime?" Harry asked, looking at Mr. Weasley. Hermione sighed.
"It's his mark" she whispered. Harry turned to Arthur.
"Those people tonight, in the masks, they're Voldemort's too aren't they? They're his followers?" Arthur nodded. "There was a man before. There" Harry said pointing. Barty and his group rushed off in that direction.
"A man Harry? Who?" Mr. Weasley asked. Harry shook his head, looking after the group.
"I don't know. I didn't see his face."

"Now we're all settled in and sorted, I'd like to make an announcement. This castle will not only be your home this year but home to some very special guests as well. You see Hogwarts has been chosen..." Dumbledore trailed off as Filch ran up, whispered something in his ear, and ran away. Dumbledore shook his head and continued on. "So Hogwarts has been chosen to host a legendary event. The Tri-Wizard tournament. Now for those of you who do not know, the tri-wizard tournament brings together three schools for a series of magical contests. From each school a single contestant 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 Beauxbaton's Academy of Magic and their headmistress Madam Maxime." A group of beautiful women danced in. "And now our friends from the north, please greet the proud sons of Durmstrang and the high master Igor Karkaroff." A group of muscular men stomped in, causing the tables to stare in awe as Krum pulled up the rear. He motioned for the newcomers to find a seat.
"You seem to be all alone" a Beauxbaton girl said as she and her friends slid next to Paige. She gave them a small smile.
"My brother and friends are all in Gryffindor, unfortunately I am not" she said. She held out her hand. "Paige Potter." The girl smiled.
"Fleur Delacour. This is my little sister, Gabrielle" she said in her thick French accent. Paige grinned. This could be a fun year.
~/~/~/~/~/~/~/~/~/~/~/~/~/~/~/~/~/~/
"Your attention please! I would like to say a few words. Eternal glory, that is what awaits the student who wins the tri-wizard tournament. But to do this that student must survive three tasks. Three extremely dangerous tasks" Dumbledore said as soon as the banquet was cleared. "For this reason the ministry has seen fit to impose a new rule. To explain all this we have the head of the department of international magic cooperation Mister Bartimus Crouch." Just then the storm clouds on the ceiling started raining. A figure stood in the doorway, his wand raised as the rain stopped. Paige grinned. It was Mad-Eye. He limped over to Dumbledore, grumbling about the roof. "Ah my dear, old friend, thanks for coming" he said shaking Mad-Eye's hand. Paige's gaze shifted to the man who now took over the podium.
"After much deliberation the ministry has concluded that for their own safety no student under the age of seventeen shall be allowed to put forth their name for the tri-wizard tournament. This decision is final." Students booed and yelled against the rule.
"Silence!" The room grew quiet as Dumbledore waved his hand over a box. It melted away to reveal a goblet containing a blue flame. "The goblet of fire. Anyone wishing to submit themselves for the tournament merely write their name upon a piece of parchment and throw it in the flame before this hour on Thursday night. Do not do so lightly, if choosen there's no turning back. As from this moment the tri-wizard tournament has begun."
