Harry was enjoying his time helping Hagrid cleaning the stables, at least that's what they called it. The stables at Pacific Academy were better looking, brighter, larger and there didn't seem to be any leaks. Hagrid admitted that he didn't have enough time to be a teacher, and to maintain the stables.
Harry's 'punishment', and that of his girls, was to help Hagrid for two weeks, while the Slytherins had to polish every cauldron in the castle by hand. Harry didn't mind, as he enjoyed working outside. While Hermione might be happier with some detentions inside, Luna and Ginny agreed that outside detentions were mush better.

Harry smiled as he was cutting planks for the stables by hand. Having worked in his youth for no gratitude from this 'family', Harry could now feel the thanks from the animals and Hagrid as he build a newer stable. Sirius Black had come through and paid for the wood and metal to be delivered to a small town, where some house elves were waiting to transport the planks and metal beams to Hogwarts. A wizard family that had heard of the new stables being build had donated several dozens of bails of straw and hay for the animals to sleep on and eat from. Harry smiled again as he saw that Ginny was creating small figures from the pieces of wood that was left over. He could see a Pegasus, a phoenix and a werewolf standing ready to be used for decorations. Now Ginny was making a small hippogriff being made from the left over pieces.
Harry looked the other way and saw Luna standing near a recently finished stable, that she was painting. In true Luna style, it was the most colourful building around Hogwarts in miles.

"How you're doing Harry?" Asked Hagrid as he placed more planks in front of Harry. While Hagrid was supposed to be punishing them, he couldn't help being happy. The unicorns had a need for a new stable and the stable that Harry was working on now was to be the largest for them, able to contain fifteen unicorns.
"Doing well Hagrid. Another week and this stable will be done. And good to, if the weather becomes even worse." said Harry as he stretched his body. While magic might have made things easier, Harry, Ginny, Luna and Hermione were told not to use their magic. "Yeah, I know what you mean. The winter months are always the hardest time for the herd" Said Hagrid as he looked at the little decorations Ginny was making. "She'll be a great artist one day" Hagrid said jokingly. :"You think so?" Ginny asked as she came from behind the stables, holding a nicely carved wooden dragon in her hand. "I know so" Said Hagrid with such confidence that Ginny thought about a switch of career. "Sorry Hagrid" Said Ginny as she shook her head. "I'm going to be a great witch and use what I can use for the power of good."

Harry smiled at Ginny as Luna came looking for them. "Hey Harry, I just got an owl from Professor McGonagall. She wants to see us. We'll have to go now" Said Luna as she pulled Harry and Ginny from Hagrid.
Luna lead them to a large hall and Harry could see that there were many students from Gryffindor sitting gender based, boys on the left side and girls on the right side. "What is going on?" asked Harry as he looked around. "Ah, mister Potter. How nice of you to have come" said professor McGonagall as she stepped from a dark corner with the caretaker of Hogwarts, mister Filch.

"If you please take a seat with the boys, mister Potter?" asked Professor McGonagall while she guided the girls to the right side with the other girls. Harry remained standing as he looked at the only empty seat, next to Ronald Weasley. "Come on Harry, sit down" said Ronald as he hard handed tried to place Harry in the seat next to him. Harry used the momentum from Ron's strength to place him in the chair that Ron had tried to place him in. "NOOOOOO" started Ron to scream and before everyone's eyes Ron started to glow with many charms. Pulling his wand, Harry started to record the charms.

"Sixteen different charms to direct me in some way, all cast by Dumbledore" Said Harry angrily as he looked at Minerva McGonagall. The girls hadn't taken their seat and moved back to the centre and started to cast their own detection charms. The three chairs that they were placed on had all sorts of charms cast upon them. "Pregnancy charms?" Asked Ginny as she looked at the piece of paper that her wand had given her with every charm on the chair. "You?" Ginny asked, her face ash white as she looked at Luna and Hermione. "Yeah, and for me a compulsion charm to befriend that fucking red head there" Said Hermione as she pointed her wand at Ron who was on the chair, in a coma. "Miss Granger, what has happened?" Asked Professor McGonagall as she looked around bewildered. "I believe I can tell you that" Said Harry angry as he shoved the paper with all the different charms on the chair in her hands.
Minerva's face paled and it was a few minutes later that professor Summers looked at the note in his hand. "Tell me that taking control of a student is reason enough for a school, to withdraw from this tournament?

"It should be" said the Goblin Dungbolb. "I've rechecked every book that the rules of the TRI-wizard tournament. In it stands that a student who has not placed his name in the goblet of fire and is chosen anyway, has twenty four hours to withdraw. The tournament should have been declared a draw from that point forward and the goblet should have been relit."
They were in the Professors cabin of the Flying Dutchman. Harry, Ginny, Luna and Hermione sat together on a large couch, holding hands and drawing strength from their bond. Alex knew that recently the began to speak telepathic, meaning that they could speak to each other inside their own minds.
Sirius was there to, with the goblin Dungbolb and professor McGonagall was there to represent Hogwarts. When Dumbledore had heard about the 'accident' he demanded that either professor Snape or himself was there to represent Hogwarts. Professor Igor Karkaroff was banned from the ship, as the wards on it wouldn't allow a death eater (former or not) to board.'Snape had tried and was now in 's getting his arm regrown after he had just gotten control of his new hand that Harry had cut off.

"If I had known about that I would have removed Harry from this place the moment he came here." Said Alex as he was trying to keep his temper under control. Around Hogwarts and the Flying Dutchman there were thunderclouds forming and constant thunderclaps could be heard above.
"This is the fourth attack in less that two months, Professor" Alex said as he looked at Minerva. "When that last attack at Harry's person happened, I was within my right to pull from the tournament, and leaving Great Britain alone in the mess they created. Did you know that, because of this tournament, my students are being called names? That my students have to use shield charms every day because a stupid boy want's to curse them? Did you know that, Professor?" Asked Alex as he started to get angrier with every word.

Suddenly thunder and lightning started to strike at will on the grounds of Hogwarts, creating massive holes in the ground. Alex took a few deep breaths and the thunder and lightning dimmed.
"If I could turn back the time, I would have done so" said Alex as he tried to temper his anger.
"But I can't. If there is a new attack on my students, no matter the size, we will leave" Said Alex as he looked at Minerva. She nodded. "What do you mean with size?" she asked as the door opened and Evelyn entered. "The word Mudblood comes to mind" Said Alex as he turned from Minerva to Evelyn. "Yes Evelyn, what is it?" Asked Alex. Evelyn smiled and placed a calming draught in front of him. "That is number one, Alex" She said and watched as Alex drank the draught. "The second is that there a few students from Hogwarts who want to play Quidditch with Harry and his friends against Slytherin."

"Maybe that is a good idea, to let our heads cool down for a moment" Said Minerva as she looked around. "Do you agree, madam Maxine?" Minerva asked the large woman of Beauxbatons who had been standing silent for the entire meeting.
"Yes, I believe it is a good idea to take a break so that cooler heads can prevail." Said the large French woman. Alex nodded and looked at Harry. Harry turned his head and looked at one of the professors that he respected the most of all at Pacific Academy. "If you think it's wise to do so sir, then I'll stand behind you. You know that I would love nothing more to return to Pacific and learn what we need for our OWL's."
"Very well Harry. We'll take a break and you can play your favourite game in the air" Said Alex with a small smile.

Harry nodded and with Ginny, Luna and Hermione, Harry walked out of Alex Summers office to his own room where he had his newest surprise for the Slytherin team. "Help me carry this soon?" Harry asked as he placed in front of his bonded seven packages, while he headed to the bathroom with the last package in his arms. Ten minutes later, Harry returned, wearing his Quidditch gear of Pacific Academy. Dark red, with black streaks and golden letters on his back that spelled out his name. Luna and Ginny smiled as they sought out their Quidditch gear. Harry smiled as he and Hermione carried the rest of the boxes outside where the Quidditch team of Gryffindor was waiting. Harry smiled as he gave each chaser a box and Hermione gave the Weasley twins a box to. As soon as Ginny and Luna were out of the changing room, the chasers moved in and the Weasley twins choose to dress in Harry's room.
"Are you sure that you want to play Harry?" Asked Luna as he watched the stadium filling with supporters for both Gryffindor and Slytherin. "I think it's time to show these guys what it means to play Quidditch, Pacific Style" said Harry as he smiled as the Slytherins flew on the pitch. In tradition with Pacific rules, Harry's team was waiting on the pitch, while at Hogwarts the players flew out of their dressing rooms.

"What are those brooms, you are using?" Asked Malfoy in his sneering voice. "These are standardised falcon brooms, that are able to move with 120 mph. Although the Nimbus 2001's are ten miles faster, you'll never get the Quaffle as it's thrown through the air." Said Harry as he described the broom.
"Are you two ready to play?" asked Richie Apple. Harry nodded, smiling that he could have a Pacific referee. "Hey, where is madam Hooch?" Barked Draco. Richie pointed to one of the teachers stands and Draco could see madam Hooch sitting there waving her hand. While she normally didn't sat games out, she was not against a substitute referee.
"Now, I want a nice, clean game from all of you" Said Richie as he looked Harry and Malfoy in the eyes. Harry smiled and nodded, but Malfoy sneered. "I don't have to listen to this." the blonde said loudly. "Fine, then you're removed from the pitch" said Richie as he used his wand to levitate Malfoy of the playing field and into a penalty box. "You can stay there until you've learned your lesson" said Richie as he released the Snitch and the Bludgers. Telling the teams to get ready, he sent them up in the air and threw up the Quaffle.

"And It's Alicia Spinnet that has grabbed the Quaffle in this special match between Gryffindor and Slytherin" called Lee Jordan as he commentated the match. "Shooting on brooms donated for this match by Harry Potter, who played seeker for Gryffindor, Alicia is passing to Katie Bell. She bounces back and Angelina Johnson has grabbed the Quaffle. She moved like water through the Slytherin defence and shoots. Blocked by keeper Miles Bletchley, who now throws to Warrington, and it's intercepted by Katie Bell who now passes to Alicia. She passes to Angelina and throws. Bounced of the keeper and Katie Bell takes the Quaffle and aims. She shoots and Scores."
The stadium went wild with the goal of Katie Bell. While everyone was enjoying the Quidditch game, several people walked disillusioned to the seventh floor of Hogwarts and moved in front a bare stoned wall that changed into a large double door. They entered, while the game between Slytherin and Gryffindor continued.
