51. Trolley Express
**Fred's POV**
"Harry! Harry!" 'Mione screamed while watching him be dragged along by the scared crowd.
"Harry!" I yelled.
"Come on, there's no time!" George said.
I grabbed 'Mione's hand and headed to Dad.
"But what about Harry?" Ginny asked.
"We'll just have to find him later."
Bill, Percy, and Charlie must have disappeared home because I couldn't find them anywhere.
"Ah!" 'Mione screamed as she was being pulled into the crowd.
"'Mione!" I yelled, grabbing her hand.
"Thanks" She said looking into my eyes.
"No problem. Let's go before you get hurt" I said running with her hand in mine.
We went looking for Harry a few minutes later.
"Harry! Where are you?" Ron screamed.
"Harry! Harry!" 'Mione yelled.
We found Harry looking surprised.
"Harry!" I exclaimed.
"We thought we lost you," George said.
"Are you okay?" Ginny asked.
"Brilliant."
"What is that?" Harry said struggling and pointing to the sky showing the Dark Mark.
George and I helped him up and we watched the Dark Mark.
Just then, men came in circling us and yelling "STUPEFY!"
We all ducked and I coveredMione with my arm and George covered Ginny with his.
"STOP! Those are my kids!" Dad yelled.
Dad put his hand on Ron's shoulder and asked "Kids, are you alright?"
"We went looking for Harry," Ron explained.
"Which one of you conjured it?" A man with a top hat asked, pointing his wand at us.
"Crouch, you can't possi-" Dad started but was cut off by the man.
"Don't lie! You have been discovered at the scene of the crime."
"Crime?" Harry asked.
"Barty, they're just kids," Dad said.
"What crime?" Harry asked.
I looked at George who had his arm around Ginny looking scared as ever
"It's the Dark Mark. It's his mark" 'Mione whispered to him.
"Voldemort?" Harry asked in shock. "Those people tonight, in the masks, they're his too, aren't they?"
"His followers?" Ginny asked.
"Yes," Dad answered. "Death Eaters."
"Follow me," Crouch said.
"There was a man before. There" Harry said pointing at the area.
"All of you, this way!" Crouch said, finally leaving us.
"A man? Who" Dad asked.
"I don't know. I didn't see his face" Harry said.
'Mione took my hand tightly and looked at me with fear in her eyes.
"It's alright, 'Mione. It's all over" I whispered.
We all looked at the Dark Mark for a few seconds until Dad said "Let's get home" Dad said.
A few weeks came by and we were about to get on the Hogwarts Express.
"I'll see you sooner than you think," Charlie said, smiling and giving Gin a hug.
"What do you mean?" George asked.
"You'll find out soon," Charlie said. "Don't let Perce know I told ya this, but it is a 'classified information, until such time as the Ministry sees fit to release it' after all."
"Ya. I wish I could go to Hogwarts this year" Bill said, putting his hands in his pockets with a smirk on his face.
"Why?" I asked.
"Let's just say you're all going to have an interesting year. I might even have time to watch a bit of it."
"A bit of what?" Ron asked impatiently.
"Just wait and see" Bill and Charlie answered at the same time.
"Hey! We're the only ones who can say stuff at the same time!" George and I protested together.
"Thank you for having us, Mrs. Weasley," Mione said.
"Anytime dear. I would invite you and Harry for Christmas but I think you would all like to stay this year" Mum said.
"What do you three know that we don't?" Ginny asked.
"Just wait until the feast, dear" Mum said, waving with Bill and Charlie before apparting.
"What?" I was confused.
"Well, I'm going to find my friends. Bye you guys!" Ginny said leaving us.
"We better go find a compartment" 'Mione said.
When we got to a compartment, the trolley women came up.
"Anything from the trolley, dears?" She asked.
"I'll have two chocolate frogs, please" I said handing her the money and handing one of the chocolate frogs to 'Mione.
"Thank you" She whispered smiling brightly.
"I'll have a Cauldron Cake" George said retrieving his Cauldron Cake.
"Drooble's for me and a licorice wand. On second thought, just the Drooble's. Just the Drooble's" Ron said.
"Anything for you dear?" The trolley women asked Harry who was looking at a Ravenclaw student named Cho Chang.
"No thank you," Harry said, sitting back down.
"This is unbelievable! How can the Ministry not know who conjured it?" 'Mione asked, looking at the Daily Prophet. "Didn't they have any security there at all?"
"Loads of 'em. Says Dad" Ron said.
"The thing that worries them is that it happened right under their noses" George said.
We looked at Harry who was rubbing his scar.
"It's hurting again, isn't it? Your scar?" 'Mione asked.
"I'm fine, don't worry Hermione."
"You know mate, Padfoot would want to hear 'about this" I started.
"What you saw at the World Cup and that bloody dream of yours" George said eating his Cauldron Cake.
A little while later, Harry finished writing a letter to Sirius and sent Hedwig off. We all got dressed in our robes by then.
"We're here" Ron said looking out the window and seeing Hogwarts castle.
"Let's get out of here," Harry said and we left.
When we were in the courtyard, we saw flying horses swooping in from the sky with a light blue carriage behind them.
"There's something you don't see everyday" I said to Mione while she smiled.
Then, a boat came up from the lake and we all set off for the feast.
**Harry's POV**
"Well now that we're all settled in and sorted, I'd like to make an announcement" Dumbledore started before Filch came in. "This castle will not only be your home this year, but home to some very important guests as well. You see, Hogwarts has been chosen" he continued before being cut off by Filch who whispered something in his ear. He ran off back to the doors.
"So Hogwarts has been chosen to host a legendary event: The Triwizard Tournament" Dumbledore said.
"Brilliant," George said to Fred happily.
"What?" I asked.
"It'll explain more I think," Ron whispered.
