Hogwarts...
Headmasters office...
Lemon drops, yes the Muggles could do useful things occasionally." Mused Dumbledore
Lily Potter had been sobbing and eating the candies every time they met in his office. Something simply had to be done or he would have none left for all the darling children that came to chat with him.
"You realize that everyone hates your lemon drops and Lily's only stress eating them!" Phineus black former Headmaster sneered
Pausing Dumbledore thought it over could it really be he glanced at his candies did no one really like them. As he these thoughts rolled through his mind the door alerted him to the person coming in.
"Albus I know how I can find Harry!" Cried Lily as she rushed in.
Dumbledore waved his hand and Lily continued on.
"We'll host the Tri-Wizard tournament and there is a chance that he will arrive with another school!" She Cried out
Pausing Dumbledore thought this over if he had Hogwarts host the game it was possible that Harry would be brought to them and they could have him transfer into Hogwarts. Then he could mold Harry back into the light. Just as he was about to answer his Floo Network activated and Molly Weasley came through.
"Albus I, oh hello Lily dear what are you up to nowadays?" Queried the rather dumply woman
"I have a plan to have Harry return to Hogwarts!" Smiled the young woman
"That's wonderful, I'm just on my way to deliver something to Ronald." And with that the woman bustled out of the office
Lily left soon after as well will a hand full of lemon drops. Dumbledore mused about how quickly he could drum up support for the tournament. Yes Harry would be brought back to the light.
Hogwarts...
A certain Hallway...
Now Molly was an ambitious woman and she wanted only the best for her two youngest. Her poor ronnikins wasn't blessed with smarts and she would have to find a match for him. Ginerva on the other hand, obcourse the Potters were a light family and very well off. She would speak to her daughter to seduce either one of the sons which ever one inherits. She smirked yes her daughter had inherited her youthful looks as well as brains. Yes, if only her youngest son had gotten some of his brothers talents. She mused as she ran through her mind the different young females she could pair with him. None of the Slytherins or Hufflepuffs no it would have to be a light Griff and the front runner was that Indian witch or the muggle prodigy. Yes, the muggle wouldn't now about betrothal contracts or magical guardians. Albus would sign it for her then she would take care of her son. With a rustle of her robe she went in search of her children.
Severus Snape...
He hadn't ment to read hear thoughts, however they were so loud he couldn't not hear them. He glanced around and decided that it would be time to have a chat with the insufferable-know-it-all. No not even her deserved to be saddled with someone so stupid. With a flourish of his robes he headed to the library. As he strode past students he mused over the new drama with the "brain of the Lions" now contrary to popular belief he didn't hate students, he despised the stupidity in most of the students. The number of times Potter Jr didn't study or the number of cauldrons Longbottom melted were prime examples. Arriving at the library he glanced around and spotted the bush the girl called hair bent over work. He gracefully walked forward and looked over her shoulder. Ahhhh, Yes, the art of enchanting figures it would be something requiring skill.
"10 points from Giffindor, for ignoring a teachers presence." He barked out
He fought to not smirk at all the pages flying as Hermione Granger yelped, jumped, and fell.
"Oh! Professor I'm so sorry you gave me quite a shock." Blushed Granger as she put a hand on her heart
"Indeed, nevertheless I came to speak to you privately." And spinning on his heel he strode to the hallways not looking back, knowing she would follow. He turned into Binn's classroom and turned to find a very irate Hermione.
"Professor what can I do for you, that you felt the need to pull me away from a fascinating subject?" Asked Hermione
"I merely meant to be the first one to congratulate you on your marriage to a pure blood family." Smirked Snape
"Wha..?!"
"Yes, when Mr. Weasley graduates you and he will be married and you shall become the newest mother of a dozen little redheads." Stated Snape with a full blown smile on his face.
Hermione stared and Snape stared back.Hermione's eyes widened then rolled backwards and she fainted. Snape felt a tad bad for not catching her, but he squashed the feeling and cast renevate on her. She sat right up and then snapped her head in his direction.
"How!" She snapped out
"As your magical guardian in name if someone petitions for you he has the right to accept. However I'm sure you will think of loophole to dodge the situation."
"Find someone that can protect you and allow you to continue your dreams, and then have your parents make a contract then sign it then you will be spared the brood of stupidity." Snape explained before leaving.
As he reached the door he stopped.
"You're the brightest of your age don't let this beat you have a good Yule." He then left.
France...
...Delacour Manor...
...Yule...
Hayden felt odd he had never celebrated holidays so he was unformilar with anything special about the day. However the Veela were partying with reckless abandon fireworks and dancing. As he glanced around his eye caught a glimpse of silver. Like a cat drawn to a laser he followed it. It led him on a merry chase all throughout the party and finally onto the balcony.
"I always loved this view." Murmured Fleur
"As a tactical standpoint it makes sense." Blurted out Hayden
She laughed, not at him with him. She turned around and he was struck at how beautiful she looked in the moonlight. He instinctively stepped back as she approached. She was blushing furiously and she gazed up at him.
"Hayden from the moment I met you I knew you were someone special." "You have done the unimaginable." Murmurs Fleur as she stopped in front of him
"What, have I done that is unimaginable?!" Croaked Hayden
" Mia A'more you have stolen my heart."
With that she stood on her tip toes and kissed him. The whole world seemed to slow down and and stop.
...it was warm
...like sugar
...what is this pain
...OH God it's Burning
...The Pain I Can't!!!
And then Hayden in France and Jason in England SCREAMED!
