- Over the summer, Barty Crouch Jr escapes his father's hold and stumbles across Voldemort on his own. Winky is made to take care of Babymort while Barty cosplays as Moody; the Lestrange brothers are slowly integrating themselves into the Ministry and gathering supporters for Voldemort's cause.)
- Sirius arrives to take Haven to the Quidditch Cup, and manages to charm the hell out of the Dursleys while he does it (this results in Sirius being invited to the Dursleys' for dinner). He and Remus (who are working on getting their relationship back on the tracks) share their tent with Hermione and Haven after the game.
- When the Dark Mark is sent up, Sirius has the kids run into the woods and hide beneath the invisibility cloak. They do as they are told, nearly running into Malfoy on the way (and there is a moment where Haven looks at Malfoy's face and sees how afraid he is). After the commotion dies down, the only evidence that anything happened is the dispersing green smoke in the sky and the echoes of a loud crack.
- Haven and Hermione join the Weasley family for breakfast the next morning, and it is then that they learn about the Triwizard Tournament from Mr Weasley, who cannot contain his excitement. Mr Weasley is called away to work, and in hopes of distracting everyone, Sirius suggests that they go school shopping, looking significantly at Molly when he mentions clothes. (What he will never tell anyone is that the dress robes are on him, and he ignores Remus' knowing look). Everyone gets their school supplies, and the girls all try on different dress robes. They grow more and more horrified until Haven and Hermione exchange glances, and promptly drag all their female friends and Sirius into the Muggle world for dress shopping. They leave the boys to fend for themselves.
- Fourth year begins; the other schools are there from the start, and are told about the tournament during the feast. Hogwarts is big enough to fit all three schools, and so all the students live inside the castle and have their classes there.
- Moody teaches DADA.
- When Haven's name comes out of the Goblet, she is seen as a legal adult in the eyes of the Wixen World (ie: she can use magic outside of school; she can Apparate if she learns how, etc). With four champions (Fleur, Viktor, Terence, and Haven) they decide to have four tasks.
- The First Task still involves Dragons, still requires the Champions to face down vicious beasts with sharp teeth and talons and wings and fiery breath, just as a baseline - some Dragons have other abilities, after all; the Antipodean Opaleye has hypnotic abilities, and a rudimentary skill for Legilimency that allows it to incapacitate its enemies in due time. The Swedish Shortsnout has an affinity for water in addition to its fire-breathing tendencies, and often resorts to the use of tidal waves and hurricanes, or hot steam. The Welsh Green is very in-tune with all things Earth, able to create earthquakes or grow enchanted forests at whim, depending only on the amount of magic beneath its feet, or the key lines near it. The Hebridean Black has a well-known relationship with light, and is quite happy to disrupt the waves traveling through the air so that the world around its prey changes color, or disappears entirely. The Hungarian Horntail is simultaneously the most and least dangerous of these Dragons; its agility on the ground, in the sky, or beneath the water is unmatched. This Dragon has no ability to manipulate magic as others of its genus do, but it does not need it, for it can shoot spikes from its tail with deadly accuracy, and its fire is hotter than that of the others. Its skin is scaled and hot to the touch and impervious to spells or weapons. This Task is suddenly far more deadly than it has any right to be, and liberating a golden egg from the other side of the arena seems impossible. This is a task of the mind.
- The Second Task is once again hinted at through the egg. Only this time, there is no riddle, nor any ear-shattering screeching. Instead, opening the egg results in goose-bumps cropping up over the Champion's skin, and a shiver up their spine, and a sudden feeling of abject terror. This Task is once again a rescue mission, only the Champion is not rescuing a loved one. Instead, they must face their greatest fear - pulled from their minds by the Goblet of Fire - and save themselves. This Task is a battle of wits, and cold logic, and the Champions quickly realize that no Magic will save them. It is this Task that makes the four Champions realize that the Magical World is a cruel place, where fear and injury are nothing more than sport for onlookers. This is a task of the heart.
- In addition to the Tournament, the Quidditch games remain in place; there are the standard inter-House games, as well as games between Hogwarts, Beauxbatons and Durmstrang. Hogwarts learns that they are not always the best at everything.
- Haven goes to the Yule Ball with Theo Nott.
- Crouch Sr disappears from the Magical World.
- The Third Task is a test of the soul. The Champions are inserted into a series of unrelated events which strip them down to their base components and show who they truly are to everyone watching. And the trick is this: the Champions are unaware that this is one of the tasks, are unaware that they are being watched, from the moment they step into the arena. The test is finding who most impresses the judges as they work their way through the challenge. Who has the best strategy? Who is the most creative, or impulsive, or compassionate? (The answer? They all have their strengths and weaknesses. This Task has no winner). They begin in a room with a situation, and once they get out of the first, a door appears, and they make a choice - go through or not, know your surroundings or face the unknown? Then a second challenge begins, then a third, then however many are required to determine character traits from these events which are tailored to fit the Champion. The faster a person finishes, the more tasks they must face, until an hour is up. The Champions are informed before their entrance that this is a Task, but that information becomes obsolete or disappears as soon as the Task begins. Who are you, really, when no one is watching?
- The Fourth Task is a duel. The Champions all duel each other - and they are made aware that the Task is a duel before it happens, so they can prepare - after dueling a person of their choice (?). The winner is announced, and then the scores are added up. This is a task of the body. The Champion is announced, (and though Haven loses the duel, she gains enough points to tie with Terence) and is given the Cup, which is a portkey to the Riddle Mansion and graveyard that is keyed only to Haven.
- With the help of Rodolphus' hand, Voldemort rises and summons the Death Eaters. He duels Haven, who barely makes it back to Hogwarts. Fudge refuses to accept that Voldemort is back.
- Haven overhears Dumbledore telling Snape to spy on Voldemort, and she remembers that she told Quirrell about Snape being a spy. Snape remains in the safety of Hogwarts.
