Chapter 7: The Triwizard Tournament
Earlier that day when the adult members of the crew arrived on their ship.
"Well I had a productive summer." Said Usopp, "I finally felt it was time for Neville to learn about pop greens."
There was an awkward silence.
"You taught Neville what?" asked Franky who a little scared.
"You made Neville the god of plants." Said Luffy.
That was when Dumbledore arrived on the ship.
"Ah, it's good to see you again." Said Dumbledore, "There's something I wish to discus with all of you."
"Let me guess something weird with his destiny is already happening?" askew Luffy.
"What? No…" said Dumbledore, "It's just that there's an event going on this year that I wanted to explain to you."
"Oh." Said Luffy, "What kind of event?"
Dumbledore began to explain the event to the whole crew who managed to gather.
"Is that all?" asked Luffy.
"Yes." Answered Dumbledore.
"I bet Haru will be the one." Said Luffy.
"Actually there's an age limit." Said Dumbledore.
"Oh… never mind." Said Luffy.
"Are you sure nothing's going t happen?" asked Kaya.
"Oh when has something ever happened." Said Dumbledore.
"Seriously." Said Zoro, "He did not just say that…"
"Are you sure it's a good idea to have it while the rat is still out there?" asked Sirius.
"It will be fine." Said Dumbledore.
Hours later the student filed into the great hall.
"I wonder how they will take it." Said Hancock.
"I don't know…" said Luffy, "And I'm hungry…"
Outside in the boats they approached the castle.
"It's so amazing." Said Denis.
"Yeah, I guess we're just used to it." Said Nojiko.
That was when Dennis stood up to get a closer look but fell into the river. The three exchanged looks as the giant squid that lives in the lake put him back into the boat.
"That was fun." Said Denis.
"I guess he's a little like Luffy." Said Kaien.
"I hope not." Sighed Nojiko.
They got to the castle and led to where they waited for McGonagall to tell them about the houses. However the three tuned her out, they knew about the houses already and how sorting worked. It didn't matter to them.
Meanwhile in the great hall…
"I'm hungry…" sighed Haru.
"Me too." Said Ron.
"When will food get there?" asked Hina.
"We ate on the train." Muttered Hermione.
"You know them." Said Maya.
"Besides we have to wait for sorting." Said Colin who was sitting with them, he was very existed to see if his brother would be in the same house.
"At least you have a last name, those three are going to be last." Muttered Hina.
And soon the first years were let into the Great Hall, the past the tables.
"I fell in." said Dennis who was still very wet.
The first one a boy named Stewart Ackerley who was sorted into Ravenclaw.
And soon Dennis was sorted into Gryffindor. He took a seat next to his brother. The others nearby applauded.
"Congrats!" said Haru.
"Thank you." Said Dennis.
Soon the other students were sorted of course it took a while for the youngest three straw hat children would be sorted.
After a boy named Kevin Whitby who went to Hufflepuff it was time for the last three.
"No last Name, Kaien." Read Pro. McGonagall.
Many of the first years were confused by the last he didn't have a last name as the hat was placed on his head.
"You're a rather interesting one. You're intelligent like your mother. However you're much more braver than you think you are… I believe that you should encourage it…" said the Sorting Hat, "Gryffindor!"
The Gryffindor's applauded, surprised by the results.
"You didn't ask to put into Gryffindor, did you?" asked Haru.
"No, he thought I should go here." Said Kaien taking his seat.
"No last name Nojiko." Read Pro. McGonagall.
Nojiko skipped to the stool and the hat was placed on her head.
"You're very brave." Said the hat, "I think there's only…"
"Wait!" responded Nojiko, "I want to go to Ravenclaw."
The hat sighed…
"Is it because of the boys are cute?" asked the hat.
"So that's why I want to go… I never realized it…" thought Nojiko, "Please! Please! Please! Send me there."
The hat sighed once again.
"You're going to have the libido of your father, I'm sure of it… I have no choice." Said the hat.
"Ravenclaw!" shouted the hat.
Ravenclaw applauded.
"You don't think." Said Haru.
"Oh yeah… more of dad's genes kicking in." said Kaien.
Nojiko took a seat with Tom and Luna.
"You asked… didn't you?" asked Tom.
What would you know." Said Nojiko.
"No last name Yosopp." Read Pro. McGonagall.
Yosopp approached the stool and the hat was placed on his head.
"No brave enough for Gryffindor, not smart enough for Ravenclaw, Slytherin is out of the picture so it better be…" said the Sorting Hat.
"Hufflepuff!" shouted the hat.
Yosopp nervously walked over to the table. Thankfully Susan and Hannah both waved to him.
"I hope he'll be able to make some friends." Said Maya.
"He will, I know he will." Said Haru.
They began the feast while eating Ginny, Maya and Hina talked about something.
"Don't you think it's strange." Said Hina.
"What is?" asked Ginny.
"That There's no Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher up there." Said Hina.
"You don't think it's Snape?" asked Maya.
"I don't think so…" said Hina.
At the same time others were talking about something else… particularly the food…
"What do you mean house elves make the food?" asked Hermione who had just found due to Nearly Headless Nick mentioning something that happened in the kitchens.
"Wait? You never knew?" asked Ron.
"I could have sworn you've been in the kitchen…" said Haru.
The two of them began to think, and they realized that Hermione has never been in the kitchen.
"Well that's odd…" said Haru.
"I'm not gouging to eat any more!" said Hermione.
"Can I have your left over's." Said Haru.
Hermione sighed, "Fine…" she muttered, "Wait I thought your mom was once a…"
"Don't talk about that…" muttered Haru.
Hermione sighed.
After sometime it was time for the announcements. Dumbledore let out many of the announcements .
"I am afraid that this year there will be no Quidditch." Said Dumbledore.
That was when there was a roar from many of the students.
"Come on!" yelled Haru.
"I was hoping to play this year!" yelled Ron.
"Our team needs alternates!" yelled Hina.
"Now there is a reason for that." Said Dumbledore.
That was when suddenly the doors slammed opened and a man covered with many scars came in. Not only that but he had a strange magical blue eye on an eye patch. He was yelling out some stuff however things soon clamed down.
Apparently this was Alastair Moody the new teacher for Defense against the Dark Arts. He was a form Auror so he was well respected to take the job.
"I like him." Said Haru.
"Of course you would…" said Hermione.
"I say they're running out of people if they have him teaching us." Said Hina.
"It's been true for a while." Pointed out Ginny.
"They do say that position is cursed." Said Maya.
"As I was saying…" continued Dumbledore, "This year we having the return of the Triwizard Tournament."
Many of the students were whispering about this.
"IT is an event that hasn't been held in over a century. The three largest schools of Europe all gather at one and hold the event. The winner will receive 1,000 Galleons."
"Oh man! That sounds awesome!" yelled Haru.
"However there are rules this year. You must be 17 to enter." Said Dumbledore, "Even if you were raised by Pirates."
"OH!" yelled Haru, "It sounded fun."
"You have no idea what it would have been like." Said Hina.
"You see many students who entered in previous years had died horrible deaths and the age limit is to prevent it." Explained Dumbledore.
"Great." Said Hina, "That does sound like fun."
"I know right!" said Haru.
"Come on you guys don't say that." Said Maya.
"Yeah you're putting all of us in a bad light." Said Kaien.
"The events will start on Halloween." Said Dumbledore.
After a few more announcements they all headed back to the tower, though Kaien had to go with the other first years.
When they got back to the Tower (though Haru took a group with him and decided to learn the pass word later).
The Twins did begin to discus how they could break in and Haru began to think about if he could use his portals.
However soon they went to be, after all it was going to be a hectic year for sure…
Next Time: They learn the type of Teacher Moody is... Will they like him or will he be horrible? Find out next Time!
A/N: I bet those were figuring that I would have Nojiko in Gryffindor and Kaien in Ravenclaw. Nope... I realized that that it would be best the other way. Also remember Ravenclaw's other qualities is beauty... so yeah... And I don't 'have anything to say with Yosopp...
