A/N: Okay, I just read through this and am extremely disappointed at the amount of pure fluff in this chapter. Seriously.

Hope those who are fans of this ridiculous story enjoy the fact that it doesn't make your eyes bleed anymore.

A Charmed Tournament

Chapter Three: Bitter Taste

Pixie walked into the dingy pub and smiled to her mother but stopped when she saw her mothers face and that she was talking to a tall man with a young looking face but with flecks of grey in his chestnut brown hair.

Pixie walked towards her troubled mother and asked quietly but sternly, "mom, what's wrong? Has Mack not left yet?" her mother smiled up at her only daughter and said calmly, "no he's left, you scared him off dear, but this man said something about you and your brothers attending Hogwarts," she sighed and Pixie turned to the young man.

"What is it?" she asked apprehensively. "Nothing, the headmaster would like to meet you and your brothers in person but you will have to travel to the school and meet him in his office," Pixie shrugged and said, "okay, come on Wyatt, Chris we should put our stuff upstairs," she pulled her brothers up the stairs and into her room, they then dropped their things except Pixie who put her new broom lovingly on the bed and walked out of the room and down the stairs. "Ready?" she asked her mother and brothers.

They nodded and she said, "Well let's go then. Are you coming?" she asked the young man as she was holding her brothers and her mothers' hands. "Um, I'm not quite sure what you mean..." he said trailing off.

"Are you coming to Professor Dumbledore's office with us?" Pixie asked again, "or do you have your own transport?" he shook his head and held loosely onto her mothers hand on top of the pile.

"You might want to hold on a little tighter this will be new to you," said Pixie sniggering, the man did as she said and they set off. Pixie and the rest of the group suddenly disappeared in a swarm of light blue flying orbs and reappeared in a one Professor Dumbledore's office, hitting the ground with a thump.

"Whoa!" exclaimed the young man. "Remus! Ah, nice to see that young Pixie has talked you into another form of quicker transport," said Dumbledore from his chair his blue eyes twinkling merrily.

"Nice of you to tell me that they could travel like that Albus," said Remus Lupin smiling warmly at his old friend. "Excuse me, but, if you don't mind my asking Professor, what are we doing here?" asked Pixie stepping out from behind her brother.

"Ah, Miss Halliwell, I don't mind in the slightest but, that question is rather hard to answer as it is very vague, for instance it could mean, why are you here in this room or why are you here in existence, but I'm guessing the former is the one you are asking?" he asked smiling warmly, Pixie whose eyes had wondered to Fawkes whom was sitting on his perch singing softly snapped around at the sound of his voice.

"Yes it is professor," Dumbledore smiled at the remarkable fourteen year old witch in front of him. "Because I would like for you three," he motioned to her and her brothers, "to be sorted before you get to Hogwarts for the first term, now if you don't mind," Pixie nodded and she and her brothers sat in the three chairs sat around Dumbledore's desk quietly.

Dumbledore rose and retrieved the hat from it's place high on his bookshelf. "I guess we'll start with the oldest, although I have a sneaking suspicion I know where you three will be sorted," he said placing the tatty hat on Wyatt's blonde head and smiled his eyes sparkling.

The tatty old hat considered Wyatt before saying loudly, "GRYFFINDOR!" Pixie and Chris clapped Wyatt on the back in congratulations before Dumbledore placed the hat on Chris' head.

"GRYFINDOR!" the hat exclaimed again and again Chris's siblings congratulated him. Pixie then took the hat gracefully from Dumbledore's old and wrinkled hands and placed it gently on her head.

The hat spoke into Pixie's ear and she jumped slightly as she heard its voice clear as day in her ear.

"You are a mighty strong witch, Miss Halliwell; yes modesty is always good for someone like you. I can see your intentions, Ahh, you are going to attempt to save Mr. Diggory, I see, yes, you do have bravery, and skill, you are highly intelligent, you have his feather I see, hmm, my previous owner is related to you distantly I see, he is in your blood, his traits run through you, I guess it's inevitable, you belong in... GRYFFINDOR!" he calls out loudly.

Pixie smiled and took the hat off of her head and hand it back to Dumbledore. "Miss Halliwell, I would like a word with you privately if you don't mind," asked Dumbledore, Pixie shrug her shoulders and motion for Wyatt and Chris to take their mum and Remus back, they nod and do as told.

"Miss Halliwell, there is to be a very important event happening this year and I would like for you to be a part of it. The triwizard tournament I believe. Although there is to be no underage champions I can't help but want to put your name in.

You are a strong witch and you are very advanced in magic, I believe you could make it. But, there is a slight problem, I need Mr. Diggory to be in this competition also. I guess I will have to hoodwink the cup into believing that there is more than three schools in this competition, I know that the strain will be hard on you but I want you to be there for Harry in his time of need. Please do this Pixie," said Dumbledore.

Pixie smiled and nodded her agreement, "I was going to enter anyway Professor, not to go behind your back or anything I just though that I would like to stop Harry or Cedric from being injured..." she trailed off.

"I understand Miss Halliwell. If you ever need anything, or to talk to anyone, just come see me, my office is always open to you," he smiled warmly and Pixie left after smiling back.

~*~*~*~

Pixie arrived in the center of commotion at the Leaky Cauldron. "What the hell is going on here?" she asked loudly.

Everyone stopped to look at her before her brothers raced up to her and said to her, "there's an attack going on at the world cup, we have to help," Pixie nodded and they orbed to the World Cup grounds in time to see Harry Potter being knocked around heading towards the stadium.

Pixie raced up to him and helped him up. "Get to the stadium you'll be safe there, GO!" she said pushing him towards the stadium and drawing her wand and running into the midst of the commotion. Harry looked after her, confused before her brothers grabbed his arms and led him to safety.

"Expelliarmis!" she shouted pointing her wand at the group of death eaters, twelve of the death eaters were blasted of their feet and Pixie said the spell again getting half of them knocked down.

She orbed the innocent muggles being tortured to the ground behind her and then said bravely to the ministry wizards beside and around her, "take the muggles and get them somewhere safe!" a few Ministry wizards did as she said and the rest looked at her as if she had grown two heads.

"YOU WILL GO NO FURTHER!" she shouted at the death eaters with authority and power in her voice. "What makes you say that little witch!" shouted one back.

"Come face the heir of Godric Gryffindor, scum!" she called mockingly. The death eaters seemed stumped for a moment before one called back, "yeah right, where's your sword heir!"

Pixie scowled and said; "I have two, His sword and Excalibur!" the spoken sword appeared out of nowhere and in her hand. "Now come fight me you cowards!" she called to them all.

There where many a loud 'pop' and the death eaters all dissaperated and Pixie stood tall and regained her composure and let the sword go back to it's normal residence.

"Miss Halliwell, I presume?" asked someone from behind her she turned and caught the ministers' gaze in her own fierce blue eyes.

"Yes minister and thanks a lot for trying so hard to save innocent muggles from the likes of Malfoy. Good day and I hope you are able to clean this mess up without making a mistake?" she said then walked away towards the pitch to find her brothers.

She did just that, she had walked into the small forest that separated the pitch from the camp area and had succeeded at finding them in a small clearing, them, Harry and Ron were crowding around a couple of veela.

She rolled her eyes walking past a bushy haired girl trying to pull a red head boy and Harry away. She shook her head as she came up beside her two brothers and did the first thing she could think of: she smacked their heads together causing them to jump, blink and exclaim, "Ouch!" Pixie smirked and pulled them away.

Then she passed the girl again and smiled warmly and then she thought of something. "The attack is over now, the death eaters have gone," the girl seemed stunned for a moment before smiling and saying: "thanks, Ron, Harry will you two bloody get a grip!" she said loudly to the two boys.

Pixie shook her head before helping her, "kiss him, he'll wake up," she said motioning to Ron. "No! I can't do that! I guess it's easy for someone who is a stranger but I can't he's my friend!" she exclaimed shaking her head.

Pixie shook her head sighed and pecked Ron on the cheek, he woke from his daze and seemed confused, "who just kissed me?" he asked.

Rolling her eyes Pixie answered, "I did, it was the only way to wake you up, now about him-" Pixie said pointing at Harry, "I don't think I'll be kissing him anytime soon, so you guys are on your own, later!" she said and waved a bit before walking away before coming back and saying, "I look forward to seeing you on the train, Bye!" and with that her and her brothers left.

The girl laughed at Ron's face and said, "Ron, wake up Harry! I will NOT kiss him! Go ask that girl nicely if she will do it otherwise you are the one kissing him!" she laughed and Pixie smiled hearing the boy come running after them.

"Excuse me!" he called out making Pixie turn around. "Excuse me but nothing we do can wake him up, can you help us?" asked Ron, Pixie sighed, rolled her eyes and smiled saying, "sure, anything to help a fellow Gryffindor," and walked back towards the clearing.

Harry was saying random things and Pixie stepped in front of him shaking his shoulder gently and calling his name, "Harry..." she called softly.

Harry didn't look down at her instead he said something directed at the Veela, something along the lines of: "I'm the best kisser in the world, all the girls are lining up to snog me!" Pixie snorted and said, "I'd like to see that!" laughing but she stopped as soon as Harry said in a dreamy voice, "okay I'll show you then..." without any hesitation he leant down and caught Pixie's soft lips with his own.

Pixie seemed startled at first but soon she melted into the kiss and wrapped her arms around his neck and he wrapped his around her waist. Pixie couldn't describe what she felt at that moment, her heart was beating so fast she thought it might come through her rib cage and her lips were tingling and sending amazing warmth throughout her body right to the tips of her toes.

Her mind was buzzing and she could swear she saw fireworks beneath her eyelids. Pixie soon came to her senses as she heard a gasp from beside her and she sadly broke the amazing kiss and pushed Harry gently away by his firm chest.

Pixie opened her eyes and saw a half dozen people staring at them and Pixie looked around and swore she felt like she was taller than she was a half a minute ago she looked down and saw that they were in fact hovering a foot above the ground and there was a sparkling gold smoke swirling about their feet.

She looked up and met an emerald green gaze and felt her heart drop, no matter how wonderful that was Harry didn't know that it was her he was kissing he thought it was a veela.

Pixie sighed and shook her head disappointed and they slowly lowered to the ground as soon as Pixie's feet touched the hard earth beneath her she and her brothers turned to leave before Harry called out "wait!" to Pixie.

Pixie reluctantly stopped and faced him. "Thank you," he whispered, "for what?" she asked confused, "well for one thing that kiss was amazing and two I want to thank you for waking me from that trance, I owe you," he said smiling before he turned to his friends. Pixie smiled slightly and her and her brothers left for the Leaky Cauldron.
