Chapter 9: the first task dragons
During the last few weeks Regulus was either with his girls of flying round the school, Sometimes Fluer was hanging out with her old friends from Bouxbattons and she introduced her sister wives and new friend Annabella Zabini. During one afternoon Regulus was flying on his own when he saw large cages and smoke coming from the forbidden forest and she he decided to go and investigate. Upon landing in the clearing Regulus noticed that the cages held three Dragons and when he heared the Dragon tamers say "I don't know how the three champs will Handle these" Regulus now knew that the first task was Dragons and soon he Raised up into the air again and mead his way to the castle. When Regulus entered the castle he ran as fast as he could to the Slytherin common room to his personal dorm to his Trunks library compartment and read about the three dragons he saw The common Welsh Green, The Chinese Fireball and the Hungarian Horntail, Regulus wanted to be prepared for when he came face to face with which ever dragon he had to face and nothing would stop him winning.
Over the course of the last few weeks Regulus was practising Spells that each dragon took as a weakness and he also used his parsletounge and perfected it to speak to dragons and he found it useful he also thought of his Basilisk animagus form it was a long shot but he didn't want the muggleborns to be afraid of him so that animagus form was out of the question and soon he went to tactics on how to deal with a dragon and this was how Regulus spent his free time and it upset his girls that he spent no time with them except for the three meals. During the weekend before the first Task Regulus asked if his girls wanted to go out to Hogsmede for the day and they all squealed with delight that their man their love was now finally gonna spend time with them. When the girls were ready Regulus was already waiting for them at the gates of the school and when they made their way over to him Regulus transformed into his phoenix form and carried them all over the gate and then they set of. Upon arriving at Hogsmede Regulus asked what Fleur wanted to do first and soon Fleur and the girls just shouted "Shopping" and this made Regulus laugh he would do anything for them even buy them new clothes and so they went into at least five clothing stores and walked out with about four bags from each and then they went to the book store which Hermione and Luna was happy about and so they all grabbed a few books and when Regulus shrunk all the bags and placed them in his pockets he thought it would be nice to go to the three broomsticks for a nice butter beer and meal and so the seven entered the pub and got their drinks then they ordered meals and they all sat and ate and drank peacefully.
After the days trip to Hogsmede Regulus and his girls went back to the slytherin common room and straight into their shared dorm and into Regulus's trunk living room compartment where they had Regulus give them their clothes and books and when the girls went to the bedroom they walked out in some of their new clothes which Regulus liked a lot and when they heard the school bell go to alert them that it was Dinner Regulus suggested he cook in here and he carries on spending the day with the girls he loved the girls he will one day marry and so the girls all agreed and Regulus went on to cook up a feast just for them with the help of his personal house elf Lexandra. When the feast was cooked Regulus called his girls into the dining room compartment where they each had a throne like chair with their names on them and once they took their seats the meal appeared and soon they all scooped up about five or six spoon fulls of veg at least seven pieces of each meat and when they noticed that there were loads left the carried on digging in till it was all gone and then a cold desert was served of jelly and ice cream. Meanwhile in the great Hall all of Regulus's parents were looking all over for Regulus and his girls hoping nothing bad had happened to them and so Narcissa walked over to the Slytherin table and asked "Draco dear where is your brother and the rest of the group" Draco had no clue either and so he said "I'll check the common room later maybe he and the girls ate in his trunk dining room" Narcissa nodded and asked him to notify her when he found them and so Draco nodded and went back to his meal.
After Dinner Draco kept his promise and searched for his brother and the girls and when he found them all laughing and talking he decided to join them and when he called his mother he said "Mum i found him he was where i said he would be would you like to talk to him?" Narccisa nodded and Draco passed the two way mirror to Regulus and when Regulus saw one of his mothers he said "Hi mum sorry about today it's just ive been ignoring the girls ever since i found out what the first task is and ..." but before he finished he put his hand over his mouth and everyone just shot him looks and then Narccisa said "Family meeting right now young man" and soon the mirrors were cut off and then they all left and met up in Severus's office and so Bella said "Spill it young man" and so Regulus was talking about the day he was flying and how he saw large cages and smoke in the forest and how he went to investigate and how he over heared the dragon tamer talking about how the three champs were gonna handle them, This news shocked everyone how in the hell did they think three students one being their son fight a dragon but then Regulus started telling them the species of dragon and how he had been learning about the spells that can weaken the certain types and how he practiced and how he perfected his parslemouth abilities and this reassured the family that Regulus had this all under control.
After the weekend was out it was time for the First task Regulus was not worried at all but Victor and Gabriela were terrified yet they couldn't show fear in front of a fourteen year old and their school and host school so they tried to put on brave faces. After about five minutes the three heads of the three competing Schools had Arrived along with one of Regulus's Fathers Severus Snape and a giddy man known as Ludo Bagman and a Ministry official called Barty Crouch Senior who was carrying a purple bag that was letting off smoke from the opening and Regulus guessed that these were the life models of the dragons they were going to face and so Gabriela went first and she picked out the common welsh Green while victor picked the Chinese fireball and then Mr crouch said "That leaves Mr lestrange with..." "The Hungarian Horntail" whispered Regulus "What was that boy" Came the reply from Barty and when Regulus looked at him there was anger in his eye as he said "That's lord Hogwarts to you crouch" and soon Barty apologised and then Regulus pulled out the Hungarian Horntail and this made Regulus smile and after the dragon selection Barty handed over to Ludo who was giddy as he said " The task is simple you have to get a golden egg while facing the dragon you chose" and soon the cannon went off and Victor went first he was a bit nervous but Regulus told him to keep his nerves steady as Dragons can smell fear and then Victor left the tent.
During Victors triumph at catching the golden egg he did suffer with minor burns and he got a score of 49 due to a crack in the dragon egg that he caught when he was burnt. After Victor it was Gabriela's turn and she was frightened she had never dealt with dragons before and so she had no clue what to do and so Regulus gave her the tip of transfiguring rocks into wolves to distract the Dragon and she was thankful for the handy tip and then she left the tent and did as Regulus suggested,She like victor ended up cracking one egg and got 49 as her score making her equal to victor. After another five minutes it was Regulus's turn and all he said was "Show time" and then he left the tent. When Regulus entered the rocky arena he looked all over for the Dragon but he could not see her so he made his way over to an large rock to keep him from sight and cast the disillusionment charm on himself and made his way over to the eggs and spotted the Golden one but before he could grab it his charm had worn off and the Hungarian Horntail had spotted him and so Regulus spoke to the dragon "Fear not my friend i am here to rid you of a foul egg you may raise your young without the problem" The dragon stopped in its tracks and smelled her Eggs to find that Regulus was right she did find a foul egg and so Regulus had taken the Egg and offered the dragon a home in his Habitat compartment in his trunk The Dragon nodded and within minutes Regulus summoned his trunk then he shrunk the great dragon and her eggs and taken them to the habitat compartment where the dragon was resized and then Regulus gave the dragon the name of Medusa and when Regulus showed her to an area where she could raise her eggs she thanked the young lord and then he left and exited his trunk and then received 50 points in score and this put him in the lead.
