We just have to wait until everyone is gone before we head up to the castle. Harry said as he wrapped his arms around Ginny's waist while watching the other students leave the train and head towards the exit.
Soon we'll be back at school for our last time with Voldemort haning over our heads. Ginny assured him as she turned in his arms to face him before giving him a quick kiss. Now come on, time to get Brego and Bolitho ready.
Ginny and Harry walked arm in arm over to where Brego and Bolitho were in their stalls. They made quick work of sadling them before gathering all their things and placing them in the saddle bags. Walking to the back of the compartment Harry opene a large door as Ginny brought both Pegasi over. Let's go love. she said as she handed him Brego's reins.
Yes lets. he replied as they left the train and mounted. With a quick chirrup they set of at a canter towrds the ominous looking castle.
When they reached the doors to the Great Hall they could hear Dumbledore speaking;
"... noticed two of your classmates are missing. They have infact just recently come back from a visit to Ismoldi where they were visiting with King Legolas. When you see them they will have changed as it was recently found that Harry Potter is in fact half elf. He and his soul-bonded went to complete their transformations into elves before the school year began. Now, it is my plaesure to introduce to you my great-grandson and his wife Prince Marcaunon and Princess Rodwen of Ismoldi."
The Great Hall doors opened so that Harry and Ginny could ride in. Both were wearing typical elven attire (think Legolas when he is travelling in the Fellowship) and had crowns of silver leaves upon their heads. "Hello Grandma, Grandpa." Harry called as he and Ginny rode up to the Head table.
"What? No greetings for you favorite Uncle Sevvy?"
Most of the people in the hall gasped at what the most hated Dungeon Bat had said as they watched Harry run up and hug the normally dowr potions professor.
"Harry." a voice whined from the Gryffindor table. "You just saw them yesterday. Can we please eat and you can have your reunion later..." SMACK "Ouch! Hermione what was that for?"
"For being an insensetive prat."
"But it's true."
"It doesn't matter idiot."
"Who cares I'm going to waste away at this rate."
"Well we can't have that Mr. Weasley, so everyone enjoy the feast and we'll talk about why there is no Quidditch after dinner." Dumbledore called before he sat down and ignored the outraged students.
"Well Uncle Sevvy, we should go and eat. Now remeber when I come to your class with Gin that I'm gonna show you an absolutely perfect potion." Harry told the man as he started back towards where Ginny and the Pegasi were.
"I look forward to it!" Severus called out to the two elves.
Harry and Ginny walked over to where Hermione and the Weasleys were sitting, having saved them seats. Brego and Bolitho came and lay in the aisle behind where Ginny and Harry had taken their seats.
"So, how was the train ride?" Harry asked as he let Ginny serve both of them.
"Good, Malfoy suprisingly still is acting like a right foul git. Even with his daddy gone, possibly even more so." Hermione told them in a non chalonte voice as she continued eating.
"What?" she asked to the absolutely silent group.
"You swore..." Ron stated in awe.
"Yes and?" Hermione asked as if there should be nothing wrong and that it happened all the time.
"You are the..."
"Great Bookworm extrordinaire..."
"And you just..."
"Swore!" The twins finished together.
"Yeah and so what? It's not like I haven't swore before." Hermione replied with a shrug.
"Moving on, so what do you guys think is gonna happen in the tourny?" Ginny asked to change the subject.
It worked to distract them as they all started speculating what the three tasks where going to be. They got no help from Ginny and Harry as the two would just smile whenever they would ask either of them to tell what the tasks where going to be. Though like all good things the end does come, and this came in the form of Professor Dumbledore addressing the whole Hall.
"As you now already the inter-house Quidditch Cup will not be taking place this year. 'This is due to an event that will be starting in October, and continuing throughout the school year, taking up much of the teachers' time and energy - but I am sure you will all enjoy it immensely.' (Rowling 163) In it's place Hogwarts will host the legendary Triwizard Tournamet. 'The Heads of Beauxbatons and Durmstrang will be arriving with their short-listed contenders in October, and the selection of the three champions will take place at Hallowe'en. An impartial judge will decide which which students are most worthy to compete for the Triwizard Cup, the glory of their school, and a thousand Galleons personal prize money.' (Rowling 166) Now, there is an age limit of 17 for all those who wish to bring glory to Hogwarts as those in charge thought that they had the greatest magical experience and would be less likely to fail the tasks ahead of them. On a side note the new Defemnce Against the Dark Arts teacher is Professor Alastor Moody. Though he isn't here right now I have accurances from him that he will be here tommorow for first class. Now bedtime all." Dumbledore finished dismising them all.
"Come on all let's head to the common room." Harry said as he and Ginny walked over to the now standing Brego and Boitho before mounting and starting out of the Great Hall and to the common room.
