"This is a bad idea," I told the twins as we walked together to breakfast.

"Oh, come on Sammay, it'll totally work." George said

"The usual bet?" I stuck out both my hands and stopped just inside the door.

"Deal" They each grabbed and shook one of my hands.

"What are your friends up to?" Shellia asked as I walked over to sit across from her. Seb grinned from his spot next to me, Ginny was on the other side.

"They aren't going to like not sitting next to you two days in a row." Ginny stated

"Believe me Ginny," I laughed, "That'll be the least of their worries here in a minute. Watch."

The twins chugged a potion, all the student's eyes were on them. Everyone watched as they aged.

They grinned at each other, smirked at me, and tossed their papers into the Goblet of Fire.

"Wait for it." I grinned

The Goblet of Fire spit the papers back at them. Everyone watched wide eyed as the twins grew beards and long hair that just kept growing. I started to laugh

"Well, now you have hair that grows as fast as you two apparently do. It was a nice touch. Come one gentleman" they started walking out of the hall "I think you owe Sammay something"

George tossed something across the room and I caught the thing easily

"I warned them." I told Ginny, "I figured it would only be fair to warn them since I put that spell up."

"What!?" Malakai blurted

"I was here a week early, so I've been helping with stuff for the tournament."

"Really?" Shellia gushed.

"Yeah," Ginny cam in. "Thats where you've been disappearing to huh?" she asked rhetorically

We ate breakfast chattering back and forth."Sammay? Are you coming?" Neville called.

"If I have to." I muttered, drawing Seb's questioning eye. I shook my head and Neville and I walked to our DADA class.

Madeye decided to "teach us" about the crucius curse in class. I saw the pain flicker in Neville's eyes and pissed me off.

After a long lecture he selected me to be his first "volunteer". I stood in front of the class. He raised his wand. "Crucio!" he said loudly. I bit the inside of my cheek as pain racked my body. I focused my mind completely on standing up straight and looking him in the eyes. My hands were shaking as I kept them hidden in my pockets.

He kept his wand poised at my face. His eyes became more and more confused. I locked my joints so that I wouldn't crumple to the ground. Finally he lowered his wand and the pain disappeared.. I shuddered involuntarily and Moody's eyes lit up as he realized his spell HAD worked.

"Very good Miss Evans, very good." The bell rang above our heads. I grabbed my stuff and sprinted out. Once I was safely away from him and outside in the courtyard, I collapsed.

"Sammay?" Neville was standing over me. "Are you ok? What happened in there? Did he mess up the curse or something?"

"No, It most definitely worked." My voice wavered and was much higher than usual.

"WHAT?! You couldn't even tell... You looked so calm." his eyes were like saucers.

I took my hands out of my pockets and showed them to him. Nail marks bit into my skin on my palms because of how tightly I had had my fist clenched.

"What the Hell! Are you alright?" I nodded slowly, pushing myself to my feet.

"I'd better get to class. See ya."
