A/N: Hi all got another chapter of Wolf for you all to enjoy and I'm rather pleased with how this chapter turned out now all I have to do it is write more chapters as writers block has hit me bad what with work and real life getting in the way at times now but don't worry I'll get more chapters out as soon as I can.

Chapter 16: Fourth Champion.

The cleanup of the World Cup took the better part of two weeks with most of that time being spent by Madam Bones convincing the Minister that the captured Death Eaters hadn't been under any mind control and as such they should face full charges for their actions.

Harry and Tonks along with every other Auror who was a part of the force to bring in what Death Eaters they could were called in many times for reports and such. In one case, Lucius Malfoy tried to convince Harry, then Tonks with first money and then threats to their family to change their reports to say that the Death Eaters were showing signs of mind control. This action on his part however didn't do anything as Harry pointed out that he had no family left to threaten and Tonks' parents and such were well hidden from the Pureblood world.

When Amelia heard of Lucius trying to bribe some of her Aurors she had him brought up on charges of tampering with evidence and attempted bribery the sly man however was able to buy his way to freedom but at the cost of a large chunk of the Malfoy estate much to Amelia's satisfaction.

All of the Death Eaters found themselves, much to their surprise, not in a courtroom in their favour based on their smug looks vanishing at the trial, Amelia sentencing them all to life in Azkaban as their old charges were brought back up and this time they found themselves under the effects of Veritaserum meaning they couldn't try and lie there way out of jail.

After the trials and everything had calmed down, Harry and Tonks, along with the other trainees in their class, found themselves back to regular duties, the couple going out on a few dates in the time leading up to Halloween.

Morning of Halloween, however, found Tonks waking up alone in bed, her work clothes laid out for her; a distinct lack of her boyfriend was the main reason she woke from dream land as she had reached out to pull him close just moments ago and upon finding empty sheets she had woken up.

"Harry, are you still here?" She called out while shaking away the last of her sleepy haze she had woken up to.

The silence that greeted her had the young woman getting out of bed and dressed quickly, moving into the living area only a few seconds after getting dressed, her hair changing to a deep red colour and eyes shifting to match her hair for something defiant.

Finding nothing in the living area, Tonks walked into the attached kitchenette finding a note stuck to the fridge. The moment it came into sight fully, Tonks gave a sigh as at least he had left her a note, unlike a few other times he had left early because of work calling him in.

Reading the note Tonks couldn't help but sigh as she looked at the calendar and confirmed that it was Halloween, "I should have known you would go and pay your respects on your own Harry, I'll just have to talk to you about that when I see you at lunch," she said softly to herself, moving to get the breakfast that Harry had gotten ready for her and stated as such in the note.

After eating and cleaning up the dishes, Tonks' tapped a set of runes on the doorway leading down to the tavern that the flat was over causing defensive wards to pop up; a nod of the head being all she gave as she vanished with a small pop knowing that besides Amelia and Harry she was the only other person who could enter the flat at the moment.

Amelia only gave a small nod of the head to Tonks as she entered their shared office for Tonks' final six months; the Auror Head just pointed at the pile of documents that her student could read over and sign off on while she worked on more important things. The pair carried on like this for a good hour before Tonks spoke up all of a sudden.

"Madam Bones, has Harry been in to see you yet today? He had already left this morning when I woke up and it is the anniversary of his parent's death so I am a little worried."

Amelia looked at Tonks for a moment before she wrote a quick message on a sheet of paper, tapped it with her wand, and said Kingsley's name quietly; the paper folded into an airplane and flew off in the blink of an eye. Neither of them said a word and just waited to see if Kingsley knew the location of his student.

A few minutes later, a new paper airplane came into the office; sitting on it laughing loudly was Zarra, the Shadow Mephit, who jumped off the plane when it came to land in front of Amelia.

"Good morning to you Zarra, I take it your master is in the building if you came here," Amelia said softly, looking at the Mephit with a smile. Zarra had quickly become something of a mascot for the Auror Corps, as everyone just loved her playful view on the world and the fact that she helped wherever possible around the office when asked.

"Yes." Came the slightly high-pitched answer. Harry and Tonks had spent a lot of time teaching Zarra English, but so far had only gotten her to say a few words and basic sentences.

Tonks just smiled without looking up from some of her work before reaching into a little pot on her desk coming up with a Muggle jellybean and threw it over her shoulder with only a small warning cry. Zarra quickly spun around and caught it, before just as quickly eating it, knowing that it was her reward for using English to answer and not her native tongue.

"Nice to see you have found something she likes," Amelia said with a laugh as Zarra was now hovering over Tonks' shoulder looking for another treat, going by how she kept on moving forward a little but quickly moved backwards when Tonks moved. "Also I thought you would like to know that Harry is in the building and doing a little paperwork; going by what Kingsley has seen he is also perfectly fine."

Tonks just nodded and went back to her work, she gave a little wave of her wand and a small table and chair appeared next to the pile of paper work she had to do. Zarra landed and settled down into the chair before pulling one of the forms from the top and looking it over careful not to wrinkle it and just trying to read it sounding out letters loudly.

The day passed in this manner with only Zarra not returning after Tonks went off for lunch with Harry, Zarra perched on her shoulder. Amelia assumed she had chosen to stay with her owner/friend.

Harry did stop by in the afternoon with a few files that needed to be looked over, giving a smile of greeting to the pair and even a quick kiss for Tonks before heading off, Zarra flying in and dropping off a single file that Harry had dropped on the way in giving a little nod before taking off again.

Tonks took up clock watching a good hour before the end of her shift, causing Amelia to start laughing at her student as she could remember her days of clock watching, before going back to her own work while still laughing, Tonks jumped to her feet the moment the clock ticked over saying her good-byes and hoping that Amelia had a peaceful Halloween.

Deciding to see if Harry had left yet, Tonks headed down to his and Kingsley's joint offices only to find the pair weren't there. Thinking on it for a moment, she headed down to the Gym and just checked in there before heading home, the sight of both Harry and Kingsley in the boxing ring that had been set up by some of the Muggle-born Auror's greeted her.

The pair was only wearing a pair of workout shorts, going topless for this match, and the gloves. Harry was working his jaw around while sitting down in one corner, Kingsley in the other, had a smile on his face at the discomfort that Harry was in based on Harry's jaw movements.

"Ready to call its quits yet, my boy? Going to stop brooding in front of me?" Kingsley asked, getting to his feet and bringing his fists together, the gloves giving a slight rushing sound of air as he moved into the middle of the room. His gold earring flashed a little in the bright lights, Harry's own sliver one did the same as he got to his feet; the height and muscle build difference showing more now as the two meet in the middle of the ring.

"This match isn't over until the bell tolls, Kingsley, and I'm allowed to brood on today given what happened to my family," Harry said as they tapped each other's gloves and then quickly got into stances; Harry moving around a lot while Kingsley stood his ground, guard up for the moment, warding off a few fast punches that Harry would throw, all of them only really to try and spook the older man.

Tonks just walked to the edge of the ring and looked to the Auror standing there. She was one of the few women in the room at the moment. The woman gave a light shake of the head as Harry backed up quickly when Kingsley finally threw a punch, the blow only just missing.

"How many rounds have they had so far?" Tonks asked without looking away from Harry who had darted around behind Kingsley and, before the guy could turn fully, landed a few quick jabs into the larger mans side and then retreating back before the dark-skinned Auror could get him.

"This is the start of round five, the betting pool is that Kingsley will K.O Harry by the end of round six or Harry will last longer than six rounds at the moment," The woman said looking at Tonks with a half smile. She looked back suddenly when she heard the sound of padded glove slamming into flesh. Harry gave a gasp of pain as Kingsley landed a punch on his chest, the younger man dancing backwards quickly to get out of range of Kingsley's long arms.

"Come on Harry stay in there, I've got ten Galleons that you'll survive until the end of round six," Tonks called out, handing over her money to the woman next to her who just laughed and made a note on some parchment next to her. Harry just rolled his eyes as he moved backwards to avoid another one of Kingsley's powerhouse combos.

Harry continued like this, blocking the hits as best he could, for a moment before throwing a few punches of his own; the blows only forced Kingsley back a half step, even the one that was planted right in the large mans gut only made him cough a little.

"You know this is totally unfair, you're a heavy weight while I'm only a light weight how on earth am I meant to knock you down?"

"Who said you had to K.O me Harry? You just have to survive against me for another round or two to make your girlfriend happy; although I might have to disappoint her as I plan on ending this now," Kingsley said, moving from defence to attack in one fluid move. Harry quickly brought his arms up to block and defend against the onslaught of powerful punches.

Everyone winced when Harry's head snapped backwards at the force of one of the blows that Kingsley managed to slip past his defence; blood and even a tooth went flying across the ring as Harry staggered backwards out of reach of any other punches, Kingsley just stepping back to give Harry a breather. That, and the Med-witch who was always on station in the gym came walking up calling a timeout to stop the bleeding.

Tonks quickly moved around to Harry's corner where he slumped into the stool that one of the Auror's pulled up for him. The Med-witch jumped up with Tonks right behind her, the unknown witch waving her wand over Harry's mouth as he spat out some blood into the bucket next to him.

"Well, you're lucky he didn't break your nose or jaw, and I can regrow that tooth for you later on," The witch said, stepping back and letting Tonks wipe away a little blood from Harry's split lip. A quick wave of the wand stopped the blood flow, but did not close the wound, as it was a rule of the ring: fix the injured fighter up enough to stop blood flow or broken bones but nothing more until the match was over.

"Thanks doc," Harry said, using the nickname that everyone else used for the Med-witch, as not many people know her name. The woman just nodded and got out of the ring, Tonks gave him a small smile and a kiss on the cheek before getting out herself.

"You get points for stubbornness Harry," Kingsley said from the middle of the ring, the pair meeting again. This time, Harry went all out on his attack, making sure that Kingsley couldn't get a chance to attack.

This carried on for the rest of the round, Kingsley only getting a chance to throw the odd punch that Harry would either duck or block with his raised arms. The sound of the bell had Harry giving a huge sigh of relief and a slight laugh from Kingsley, the pair going to their corners.

"Not bad Harry, you're holding your own against him and that can only be a good thing," Tonks said, getting into the ring with Harry. She held a water bottle for him while he drank it down, a small smile on her face as she asked softly so that only he could hear, "You still going to be up for dinner tonight, or are we going to have to move it until tomorrow?"

"No, I'll be fine, only have to last another two rounds or so, I can manage that," Harry said looking at Kingsley who was watching him closely, a smile on his face. Harry had a feeling that the older man was enjoying himself.

"That's good, as you did say you wanted to talk to me about something tonight and I can't wait to find out what it is," Tonks said before jumping out of the ring. She looked at her watch as she went, making a note that they still had an hour or so before their dinner appointment.

Everyone was cheering on their favoured fighter, more cries for Kingsley to finish Harry off sounded then for Harry to hang in there, not that either fighter was paying it any mind. both of them were focused on the other as they both knew that the other was skilled enough to spot any openings in their opponent's defences.

The round was nearly over when Amelia came storming into the room, her wand flicked out and sounding the bell for a time out. Both fighters stopped at once and looked at the upset woman, neither willing to move after seeing the look on her face.

"Trainee Potter, I want you to account for your time and location in the last twenty-four hours, I want to know if there are any witness to your claims and I want them now." Amelia said, looking Harry in the eyes and coming to a stop at the edge of the ring.

Harry just blinked a few times before saying looking over at Tonks, "I spent last night with Tonks enjoying a quiet evening. I went to my parents graves this morning, but the grounds keeper saw me enter and leave; after that I have spent all my time here in Auror HQ with either Kingsley, Tonks or any number of workers here."

"That's good, now as you might known Hogwarts is holding the Triwizard Tournament this year and that there is only meant to be three champions selected."

"Yes, I'm aware of this Madam, but what does that have to do with knowing where I was in the last twenty-four hours?"

"I'm asking because I just had a floo call from Albus at Hogwarts, your name just came out of the Goblet of Fire; Harry, you have been entered into the Triwizard Tournament and there is nothing we can do to get you out of it." Amelia said, lowering her head as she could see the fire in Harry's eyes. Zarra, who had been hovering above everyone's head, came diving down her own eyes showing the same fire that her master's now showed.

"Your orders Madam?" Harry asked with a slight snarl in his tone of voice; Amelia had a feeling that if she ordered it, Harry would tear Hogwarts apart to find out who had put his name in that Goblet, as she knew, as did every other Auror in HQ, that he hated the way he was treated because of his fame.

"Your orders?" Amelia paused here for a moment, looking at Tonks then Kingsley, knowing that whatever she said would have to include Kingsley at the very least. "Your orders are to report in and take part in the Tournament while also looking for clues to whoever entered you in the first place, and arrest them. Your mentor will go with you and my student well join you once her remaining few months of training with me are over, any objection to theses orders Trainee?"

"No Madam, I'll go get changed and report to Hogwarts." Harry paused here himself, and seemed to think on something, an evil looking smile forming on his face as he looked at Amelia. Zarra landed on his shoulder as he said, "With permission may I kick the living daylights out of whoever is in charge of all of this at Hogwarts for ruining my date I had planned with Tonks tonight?"

"Permission denied, but I will let you speak your mind to them and state which school you'll be representing," Amelia said with a smile, seeing Harry just nod at this, pulling off his gloves, as he moved to the other side of the ring, "Also Trainee, your old teacher Mad-Eye is at Hogwarts at the moment acting as the defence teacher for this year, you're to treat him as a suspect the same as everyone else in that school at the moment, understood?"

"Understood." Harry said, jumping up and out of the ring. Tonks moved to his side as the pair left for the locker room; everyone else started to break up and go back to their stations. Kingsley climbed out of the ring and came to a stop in front of Amelia.

"Do we have to stay in the school, or do we only have to be there for the three tasks?" Kingsley asked, taking up a water bottle and taking a drink.

"You only need to be there when they are there. Harry needs to be there four times not three, the three tasks yes, but also the Yule Ball that is being held this year."Amelia said, turning to leave only to pause and say over her shoulder, "Their training is unchanged from how I said when we divided those two, do not let this stop them from finishing their training as I can see those two becoming some of the best to enter theses halls since Mad-eye and yourself."

Kingsley only nodded, turning to go change himself, knowing that the coming talks at Hogwarts were going to be fun to watch, hopefully he wouldn't have to step in and restrain Harry.

Albus was sitting in the Great Hall looking at the single piece of paper in his hand. The name Harry Potter and some unknown school almost glaring at him as he knew that Harry was on his way and the young man would more than likely be on the warpath; he had stated that besides Christmas he wasn't planning on entering Hogwarts because of Albus' trying to talk him into coming to the school as a student.

Sitting on either side of him were both Headmasters of the two visiting schools Crouch and Bagman were pacing back and forth before the head table. Albus had a feeling that this calm, however, was about to end when he felt the wards tell him that someone had just entered the main hall by a shadow. The old man knew that Harry had arrived.

Albus was about to call out a warning to both Crouch and Bagman when suddenly the main doors were thrown wide open. Harry came storming into the room a moment later, Tonks only a step behind him; both of them looked like they would love to rip someone's lungs out and do unspeakable things to the person afterwards.

Kingsley just laughed at the nervous looks on the Ministry employees, as they had heard the rumours going around about Harry's temper and that Tonks could match his at times. The dark skinned man leaned against the main doors and just watched the show about to start.

"Someone will tell me why and how my name came from the Goblet of Fire, and you are also going to tell me everything you know about this, now, or I swear on the scales of Szotfrin I'm going to take someone's head off." Harry snapped off, not paying attention to the offended look on the face of both visiting headmasters at his words, but Albus raised an eyebrow at the name that Harry had given for swearing pain on.

"What a rude young man you are, I would think that you would be pleased as it's a great honour to be chosen to become a Champion." Madam Maxime said sharply, not liking Harry's tone of voice or the way he had entered the hall one bit.

"I don't care what you think Madam but I will say this much if you had a nice dinner planned with someone you love and planed on asking said person a couple of very important questions only to find out that you have been entered into something you didn't want to have anything to deal with then you would be rude to."

Maxime was about to say something back at that comment, but went silent when Albus said calmly to Harry hoping that his calm tone would help settle the young Auror down a little, "Harry, I assure you I have Professor Moody looking into how this happened, so there is no need for violence, but you will have to compete in the Tournament and take part in any events that deal with the Tournament including the Yule Ball and the weighing of the wands in a few weeks time."

Harry gave Albus a look before reaching into his coat that he had thrown on before leaving Auror HQ; the long leather coat coming down to just above his ankles and looked to be made from Dragon hide. The parchment he pulled out was quickly unfolded and then handed over to Albus while Harry said with narrowed eyes, "As of this moment Mad-Eye is off this case and it has been placed in the hands of both my mentor and me until he is eliminated as a suspect. Mad-Eye isn't allowed to do anything dealing with this problem, the same thing applies to everyone else within the castle over the last twenty-four hours including yourself Headmaster; I well be representing the Auror Academy and no other school in this Tournament."

Albus read over the orders from Amelia that Harry had just given him before giving a small nod of the head to show he understood and wouldn't stand in the way. Harry just nodded back before turning around and started to leave the room. As he went, Tonks only a step behind him, he spoke from over his shoulder.

"I'll be within the school at any time I am needed as well as over the next few weeks. I'll be back with my mentor to interview everyone to narrow down the list of people who put my name in the cup, we will go as far as using Veritaserum on members of the staff and older students if need be Headmaster, just so you have far warning."

"Understood Harry, I'll go let Mad-Eye know about this change and that he isn't to do anything to deal with this case until he is eliminated as a suspect." Albus said, giving a nod to the pair while they kept on walking. Harry transformed into his Animagus form and, with Tonks holding onto his neck, the pair vanished. Kingsley just gave a nod to the Headmaster before he started the long walk out of Hogwarts.

"That boy has no respect for anyone or anything Headmaster, plus he has an unfair advantage to our champions given his advance training and the fact that he clearly has an Animagus form!" Karkaroff yelled at Albus, rounding on the aged Headmaster who just sighed and dropped into his seat trying to work out how to fix this whole problem and not paying Karkaroff any mind at the moment.

"I have to disagree with you Karkaroff that boy, no that young man is on about the same level as the seventh year students, maybe a little more advanced; his Animagus form is both a blessing and curse for him. He will obey the rules though, and if we state he is not allowed to us his Animagus form he won't use it as his code of honour is very strong." Albus said after a few minutes of thought already planning on changing the name of the school Harry had stated he would be competing under.

Everyone else remained silent as Albus got to his feet and moved to leave the hall; his thoughts on what had happened at dinner and how Harry was more than likely going to mop the floor with anyone who got in his way to finding out what happened.

'I'm going to have to warn everyone not to do anything to upset him while he is investigating this, no telling what he might do to them if that should happen.' Albus thought, moving towards Moody's quarters to let his old friend know about the change in plans on the investigation.
