Naomi could only listen to Jeanne words and not respond to them because she has not meet Fleur still now so its kind of hard to see if the person is how Jeanne says when Naomi saw a very confuse girl who could only stare at her. "All of you have to be in your best behavior, you are all representing Beauxbatons Academy of Magic. Understood?" headmistress Olympe said a chorus of "Yes Madame Olympe" from the twenty-five students who Madame Olympe leads out of the carriage into the front entrance of a grey castle, high up on top of a freezing waterfall. The cold weather from being on the side of a snow mountain kind of slipped the headmistress mind. The students shivered at the sudden temperature change but they all managed to use a self warming charm to warm their bodies nevertheless, the cold still affected them.
"A warning would have been good," Pierre said blowing out white air, walking next to Jeanne and Naomi who nodded as they followed their giant of a headmistress who was set for the weather with her long black coat. As they walked toward the main doors a slightly strong cold wind interrupted their vision. When it calmed down the students caught sight of five hooded figures standing in front of the wooden doors.
"Welcome Beauxbatons this way," all five of them spoke at the same time that after they spoke the door behind them opened another wind came just like the first one and when it cleared they were going.
The headmistress leads them on not even bother by disappearing five, inside the castle was warmer than outside, it was lit up by multiple candle chandeliers. Naomi could feel Jeanne squeezing her right hand and Pierre holding Jeanne's hand who was not paying attention. At the end of the hall other door opened as they got closer revealing two long empty tables which was for the students and one in front for the staff. Beauxbatons took the table on the left; Naomi sat down with Jeanne and Pierre on either side of her and Fleur and her sister took a seat in front of them.
Fleur's sister looks so much like Fleur with their long silvery hair and bright blue eyes whose excitement seemed like it would burst out of her when she saw Naomi. "Let me introduce you, Naomi this is Gabrielle Delacour Fleur's younger sister and big fan of your music," Jeanne said Naomi gives her a smile making her smile bigger as she excitedly says, "You really are amazing! I really love your music and sketches. I want to learn more about you but I have not had the courage to even talk to you but I got it now so it really will make be happy if you would be my friend?" "Yes, I'll love to be your friend." Naomi replied Gabrielle bounced in her chair earning her self a scrolling from Fleur telling her to calm down.
Which Gabrielle could not do due to her excitement "Oh dear sister can we please trade rooms? I want to room with Naomi," Gabrielle begged her as Pierre chuckles while making a funny face to Jeanne who was slightly glaring at Fleur. Naomi could tell by the way Jeanne looked at Fleur that she might not see the sun rise. "Where is Hogwarts?" Pierre asked glancing at the other table that lay empty "Really late," Naomi said their headmistress thought the same, Naomi watched as she silently spoke to one of the five hooded figures that now sat on the chairs in the staff table like the students started to refer to it. "Maybe we can start eating without them," Pierre said just as food appeared on their plates. They all ate in silence then they returned to the carriage to sleep Gabrielle wanted to stay up and talk to Naomi but Fleur told her no because they had to get up early the next day in which Hogwarts should be there.
The next day came faster than Naomi wanted which Fleur had to wake her because she was having trouble sleeping. 'What is going on with me?' Fleur thought staring down at Naomi sleeping face. She pats her on the shoulder to wake her, Fleur felt her air leave her the moment Naomi opened her eyes, Fleur was only able to get out one word "Time," Naomi nodded wiping the sleep of her eyes "Morning," Naomi said getting up and heading toward the bathroom to get ready.
They were out and ready in five minutes. Meeting up with Pierre, Jeanne, and Gabrielle at the end of the hall way; all five of them heading to the foyer were the other students were waiting for the headmistress to lead them out to the dinning room. Which was now full from the Hogwarts students who you could hear miles away by how loud they talk, "Were they born with a microphone, because men they are loud," Pierre said Jeanne nodded glancing at Naomi who was walking slightly stiff the closer got to the dinning room.
Naomi felt her blood run cold as she entered the dinning room, she kept her head down as she took a seat like she did yesterday for dinner. "Naomi, are you okay?" Jeanne asked "You look kind of pale," Pierre said. Jeanne placed her hand on Naomi's forehead to check her temperature. Gabrielle eyes were cover in worry "Maybe you might be getting sick?" Naomi shakes her head "Its nothing," Naomi said but they did not believe her, either way they stopped asking her. Everyone finish eating after thirty minutes when the five hooded figure stood up together and said, "The first challenge will be a magical race to the top of the mountain, only depending on your magic to get up there. Spells that involve floating or anything like that will be disqualified from the race. At least two students from the same school has to make it to the top to win. The three students from each school who will be participating in this race will be apparated there right now,"
Naomi shivers from the coldness as she stood outside with two other students from her school and three Hogwarts students she did not know but they did recognize her. Naomi first spell was a heating spell on her body so she did not get sick or froze from the cold. She then summoned snow gloves from her trunk along with blue pants before starting to climb, the others did something similar except the Hogwarts students who she did not played attention to which kind of worried her. She knew her classmates will not cheat knowing they will have to deal with the headmistress wrath. However, the Hogwarts students do worry her.
Naomi took multiple calming breaths as she started to climb up the rocky mountain being careful of the ice on the rocks that she grabbed on to. Naomi kept a steady pace until a spell flew close by her and would have hit her if she did not flatten herself onto the mountain. She kept on climbing thanking that she learned to climb thanks to her father who taught her and other skills that does not involve magic. She managed to set up a shield around her for any spells that are thrown at her, she also hopped that they were not strong spells because she needed her focus on the climbing.
The mountain was a high one but not really high that she would need an oxygen tank but it did start to become hard to breath and the snow did not help at all. Naomi was getting closer to the top and they knew it. Her shield was flickering due to her losing her focus slightly due to the strong cold winds carrying snow. Because of that a spell hit her but she still held on a continuing climbing knowing she was close to the top. She could see the top along with one of her classmates who quickly spot her which was not hard to miss and helped her climb the last rock.
"Beauxbatons win the first challenge1" the five hooded figures said when they returned the six students back inside, the others watched the whole thing on a magic video view. Naomi was finding it hard to stand, her breaths coming out ragged as he body started to weaken. Naomi eyes found Hermione's eyes right as a cough escaped her along with blood which started to pour out as she coughed, her body falling down to the ground "NAOMI!" her classmates and friends screaming her name was the last thing she heard before falling into unconsciousness.
