Harry Potter and the contest of spells
Chapter 1 -- A new day
A new day had started. The morning light was slowly making its way into the fifth year boy's dorm. The boy in the bed tried to hide his eyes from the morning light, but it was no use. He decided to get up to begin his day. The boy reached over to his dresser next to his bed and picked up his glasses. He rubbed his eyes and put his glasses on. He sat up and stretched his arms. "Wonder what's in store for me today." He thought to himself.
He swung his legs over the edge of the bed and got up to get changed. He went to his dresser and took out another school uniform and began to change. As he did his friend ran into the dorm room.
"Harry! Harry! Come quick. Hurry up and change. They are posted. Come on." Ron yelled. "Really?" Harry said excitedly. He changed quickly and put on his school robe and ran out of the dorm. He followed Ron down the steps and into the common room. Near the bulletin board in the common room there was a large gathering of Gryffindor students. Each of them was pointing at different parts of a list.
Harry and Ron pushed their way to the front of the group. Each of them found their names on the list and smiled.
"Awesome" Exclaimed Ron, " I made the list, and I'm number seven to boot."
"Well its good to see you two finally made it down." Hermione replied from behind the two of them. " I'm number two on the list."
"Who is first?" Harry asked excitedly.
Ron ran his finger up the small list and turned around. "The number one spot is blank. There is no name there."
Harry looked at the list and quickly found his name. "I'm number four."
"This should prove to be interesting." replied Hermione.
The three of them sat in some nearby chairs by a chess board. Ron set up the pieces for a game of wizards chess. Harry and Ron began a game of chess as Hermione watched.
As the game progressed Ron was clearly winning. Other people were filing in and out of the room at a rather steady pace. Harry heard some girls laughing as they walked down the stairs. He noticed one of them was a seventh year named Blackcat that he had met earlier this year. He watched her walk down the stairs. "Check." said Ron. "Oh." Harry replied as he looked at the board. Sure enough Ron was going to win this game. Harry watched as Blackcat and her friends Lei and Lilandra walked over to the board. With them was another girl Harry hadn't met yet. "Checkmate." Ron happily said. "Well you won Ron." Harry replied. Ron could tell he was distracted. He looked over to the board to see what Harry was staring at. "Your not thinking about her again Harry are you?" Hermione asked. "And what if I am Hermione?" Harry snapped back. Ron and Hermione wouldn't leave Harry alone after his events with Blackcat. Hermione had a strong disliking for the girl. She never truly got to know Blackcat, but she had a bad feeling about her. "Excuse me." said Harry as he got up from his chair. He walked over to Blackcat and the other girls and tapped Blackcat on the shoulder. Blackcat spun around and as soon as she saw who tapped her she smiled.
"Hello Harry, What do you need?"
Harry went a bit red. After the events from earlier this year he blushed every time she said hi. It wasn't like a love, more like a warm friendly feeling.
"Just wondered why your name isn't on the list Blackcat?" Harry asked, " I didn't see it."
"Its not?" She replied back. She turned to the list and looked over it carefully. She noticed all her friends on the list. Harry's name was fourth, then she saw Ron's name and Hermione's name. She continued to search, but sure enough she wasn't on the list.
"That's odd. Wonder why I didn't make it. I would have thought my name would be on that list." She said. To Harry's surprise her voice didn't sound disappointed. She seemed rather happy. She then noticed the top spot was empty and smiled.
"Seems like good competition this year. Wonder who has the top spot for Gryffindor. It's not like Mcgonagall to keep it a secret."
"Cat, I'm sorry you didn't make the list." Lei said as she gave her a hug. "Me too cat" Lil said from behind Blackcat and put a hand on Blackcat's shoulder.
"Am I on this list?" The new girl said as she scanned the list, " yes I am. Looks like Cat is the only one who didn't make it. Even Neville Longbottom made the list. He is last, but he made it."
"Oh. Don't rub it in Sidney." Blackcat said with a giggle.
Harry didn't know what to say. He would have been disappointed if he didn't make the list for the contest of spells. The new event was announced about a month ago at the breakfast table. Each house would compete against the others students in their respective houses and years. The champions of those contests would go on to face the respective champions of the other houses. The final select few would go against each other. The winner of the contest would earn four hundred house points for his or her house. Students from Slytherin, Gryffindor, Ravenclaw, and Hufflepuff all signed up. Almost all the students of Gryffindor signed up for the contests. Dumbledore thought it was a way to train students for the next tri-wizard cup, and to have a bit of fun.
Harry smiled at Blackcat feeling happy he was chosen, but disappointed she wasn't. He couldn't figure out why she was happy about not being chosen. He returned to Hermione and Ron and smiled.
"Well Harry, its almost time for Charms. Let's get our books and go. Come on." Hermione said with a bit of sarcasm in her voice. She too had noticed that Blackcat's name was left off the list and she smiled about it. She had it set in her mind that she was better than Blackcat and didn't know what Harry saw in her. The three friends got up and walked out of the common room and to their first class of the day.
