Before I begin the next chapter I want to thank all of you for sticking with the story and adding it to their favorites and story alerts. So without further ado here's Chapter Nine. :)

After a few more questions from Rita Skeeter, Harry and Melissa left the room and headed to the owlery.

"Ugh that was pointless," Harry said as they walked outside. "She didn't need us for the interview."

"I know," Melissa said. "She didn't even listen to what we were saying."

They reached the owlery and saw a barn owl fly in through the window and land on a perch in front of them. It held out its leg and Harry took the letter off of it.

"It's from Sirius," Harry told his sister.

"Read it," Melissa said.

Harry looked around the owlery and to make sure no one else was around before reading the letter out loud.

"Harry, Melissa I couldn't risk sending Hedwig. The ministry has been intercepting more and more owls and she's too easily recognized. We need to talk. Face to face. Meet me in the Common Room at one o' clock this Saturday night. And make sure you come alone."

Melissa reached her hand out to pet the owl that had brought the letter. She couldn't believe Sirius wanted to meet them face to face. What was he thinking?

"P.S.," Harry continued.

"Ouch," Melissa shouted as the bird pecked at her finger. She examined it and saw that it was bleeding.

"The bird bites," Harry said with a small chuckle.

"Shut up Harry," Melissa said slapping him in the arm.

Harry laughed all the way out of the owlery and Melissa glared at him.

"Okay I get it already," Melissa said. "The bloody owl biting me was funny."

"I'm sorry," Harry said calming down a little. "It was just perfect timing for it to bite you."

"Better be quiet or I'll put a dung bomb in your backpack," Melissa threatened.

"Okay shutting up," Harry said as they reached the castle doors.

Once they walked through the front doors Ginny Weasley walked up to them.

"Hey guys," Ginny said with a smile on her face.

"Hi Ginny," Harry and Melissa said returning the smile.

"I've got something important to tell you," Ginny said.

"What's that," Harry asked her.

"Okay let me see if I can remember the message correctly," Ginny said. She then took a deep breath and spoke. "Ron would like me to tell you that Seamus told him that Dean was told by Parvati that Hagrid was looking for you two."

"Is that right," Harry said in an angry voice. He was about to tell her to insult Ron back but realized he didn't have a clue as to what she just said. "Wait, what?"

"Yeah I'm not really sure how to respond to that," Melissa said. "Could you repeat that please?"

"Ugh I am not repeating all of that," Ginny said. "Hagrid wants to see the both of you tonight. And he told you to bring the you know what, not sure what he means by that though."

"Okay what time," Harry asked her.

"Nine 'o clock," Ginny told them.

"Thanks Ginny," Melissa said.

"No problem," Ginny said as she headed up the Grand Staircase.

"That will give us just enough time to make it back to the Common Room in time to see Sirius," Harry said in a quiet voice.

Melissa nodded and they headed up to their Common Room. That night around 8:30, Harry and Melissa rushed up to Harry's dorm and he took their invisibility cloak out of his trunk. He then threw it over them and they walked back down into the Common Room and out of the portrait hole. They rushed out of the castle and to Hagrid's cabin. Harry removed the cloak and he knocked on the front door. They heard Hagrid's dog Fang barking from the other side and Hagrid opened the door.

"Good I'm glad you two could make it," Hagrid said as he stepped outside. "Did you bring your father's cloak like I asked you?"

"Yes," they said and Harry showed it to him.

"Where are we going," Harry asked as they followed Hagrid towards the forest.

"You'll see soon enough," Hagrid told them. "Pay attention you two this is important."

"What's with the flower," Harry asked him as he noticed a big flower on his fur coat.

"Hagrid have you combed your hair," Melissa asked with a shocked expression on her face.

"As a matter of fact I have," Hagrid said.

They walk up to the Beauxbaton carriage and Hagrid calls for the Headmistress. He then turned back to Harry and Melissa.

"Quick put the cloak on," Hagrid said.

Harry nodded and he threw the cloak over him and Melissa.

"Ah hello Olympe," Hagrid said with a smile on his face as Madam Maxime walked out of her carriage.

"Oh Hagrid I thought you weren't coming," Maxime said as she walked over to him. "I thought perhaps you had forgotten me."

"Couldn't forget you Olympe," Hagrid said.

"Is it just me or is he flirting with her," Melissa asked her brother in a quiet voice.

"He is," Harry said in the same quiet voice. "This had better not have been what he wanted to show us."

"What is it you wanted to show me Hagrid," Maxime asked. "When we spoke earlier you sounded so exhilarated."

"You'll be glad you came," Hagrid told her. "Trust me."

They walked further into the forest and over to some bushes where they heard a loud roar. Melissa jumped and accidentally stepped on Harry's foot.

"Ouch," Harry said in a quiet voice.

"Sorry," Melissa told him. "This place just gives me the creeps."

Just then they saw what made the roar. People were running around in an open area trying to control numerous dragons.

"Can we get closer," Maxime asked as she walked a little further ahead.

Harry removed the cloak from him and Melissa and he spoke.

"Dragons," Harry said in a terrified voice. "That's the first task?"

"You're joking right," Melissa asked Hagrid in the same terrified voice.

"Come now you two," Hagrid said. "Dragons are seriously misunderstand creatures."

Just then one of the dragons shot a huge wave a fire out of its mouth and Melissa jumped behind her brother.

"Although, I have to admit that Horntail is a right nasty piece of work," Hagrid told them. "Poor Ron nearly fainted just seeing him you know."

"Ron was here," Harry asked him.

"Oh sure," Hagrid said. "His brother Charlie helped bring him here from Romania. Didn't Ron tell you two that?"

"No he didn't," Melissa said in an angry voice.

"He didn't tell us a thing," Harry said in the same angry voice.
