Hey guys sorry about the long wait but I had to go back and look at some stuff while writing this chapter. Anyway as the title claims it's during the goblet of fire and Salena and Snape seem to hit it off in their now fourth month of dating. A lot of drama in this one, especially when Salena only gets visions of the challenges and who all's going to live or die. Please enjoy and leave a good review for me please!

The two lovebirds had been all over each other since the relationship started. They sometimes fought like a married couple in front of the students but no one seemed to have a clue. The school was now entered and hosting the Tri-Wizard Tournament; and the announcement two days earlier had the whole school completely excited; truthfully though, Salena seemed to be the only one excited about it all despite the dangers of it all.

"Severus cut it out!" Salena and Snape were busy cleaning the Potions classroom from all the spilt residue of inflaming potions; and as Salena finished cleaning her side of the room Snape started chasing her around the classroom, thank god it was locked.

"Come back here snake princess!" he was laughing as he chased her around the room and pushed her up against the wall and kissed her sweetly on the lips. She smiled through the kiss and wrapped her arms around his neck. They had been dating for four months already, but they kept it discrete since most students, especially Slytherins tend to blab.

"You happy now?"

"No, but I will be after this." He kissed her again and held her close to him. They kissed until Salena let go for air; the man was breathtaking when he kissed.

"Must you be so forward?"

"We've been together for four months, so why shouldn't I?" his hand moved to her side but she stopped him.

"Severus we talked about this…"

"I know I just can't help myself; you're so beautiful."

"And you're very handsome but I think we can wait on that." Severus rolled his eyes and let Salena go as a knock came on the door. "It's open." in stepped Dumbledore, smiling as sweet as ever.

"Having fun?"

"Oh hush Albus, need something?"

"Just letting the two of you know the choosing of the champions is in an hour. Best we stop playing around and prepare ourselves shouldn't we?" Dumbledore smiled and left the room. Snape magically locked the door and turned to Salena.

"Now where were we?" they kissed again until Dumbledore magically unlocked the door.

"That's enough you two, get ready." Salena scoffed and Snape let go as they walked out the door and headed for the great hall. The minute they arrived everyone else started filing in the room filling it to full capacity; the teachers stood on the other side of the room not nearly as anxious as the students and the guests.

"You ready for this?" she whispered to Snape.

"Sure…I'm sure you've had a vision about this night?"

"No, remember I've told you I can control my visions and I wanted this to be a surprise."

"I see no fun in that…"

"Oh hush." As they took their spots Dumbledore began his speech and soon turned to the giant flaming goblet. A paper flew out and landed into his head.

"The Durmstrang champion…Viktor Krum!" the entire audience applauded and Krum shook Dumbledore's hand before leaving out the teacher's door. A second paper flew out and he read it. "The Beauxbatons champion…Fleur Delacour!" more cheering and the same; and the last paper flew out. "The Hogwarts champion…Cedric Diggory!" Salena clapped that time and cheered, Cedric being one of her favorites. "Excellent, we now have our three champions; but in the end only one will go down in history…" Salena almost didn't hear the rest as a loud cackling noise caught her ears and she nudged Snape looking at the goblet. Dumbledore turned and walked toward the goblet as it blazed brighter and another small paper flew out. "Harry Potter……Harry Potter?" Salena spotted Harry slinking into his seat until Dumbledore shouted again. "HARRY POTTER!!!"

Harry slowly got up from his seat and saw the paper in Dumbledore's hand. As he left to follow the other champions people started throwing insults; when he passed Salena she gave him an assuring look saying 'Don't worry, we'll figure out something.' A few minutes after he'd walked out some of the other teachers followed Dumbledore and Salena went with them. The shouting started and Salena just went right behind Dumbledore until they reached a room full of trophies and awards with one big fireplace in the middle with the three champions, now four in front of it.

"Harry did you put your name in that goblet of fire?!" he was shaking Harry and the boy looked absolutely terrified.

"No sir…"

"Did you ask one of older students to do it for you?!"

"No sir…"

"You're absolutely sure?"

"Yes…yes sir."

"But of course he is lying!" Madame Maxine the headmistress of Beauxbatons snapped.

"The hell he is! The goblet of fire is an exceptionally powerful object, only an exceptionally powerful confundus charm could've hoodwinked it! Magic way beyond the times of a fourth year!" Moody defended him.

'Now I really wish I'd seen this coming!' Salena didn't hear the rest, just kept searching around for something that could explain this but nothing came through.

"Mr. Potter has no choice, he is…as of tonight…a Tri-Wizard champion." All eyes were on Harry; the boy gulped and Salena just exited the room without a look at the other champions. She heard Minerva call her but ignored it as she made her way down to the gargoyle to Dumbledore's office.

"Licorice Snap." The gargoyle moved aside and she made her way up. The others would arrive soon, but she didn't really care on the fact that this only meant Riddle was on the move again. Fawkes greeted her with a happy cry and let her stroke his feathers. She smiled at him not hearing the loud storming footsteps coming her way; when the door swung open Dumbledore, Snape, McGonagall, and Moody rand in and gave a huge sigh of relief looking at her.

"You really need to stop running off like that Eleanor."

"Sorry headmaster just had a feeling you'd all be here after I came." Dumbledore sighed and walked over to a small cover place and it revealed a Pensieve inside. He loomed over it as it glowed; an Ms. McGonagall didn't really want to keep it quiet as it was.

"This can't go on Albus, first the dark mark and now this?"

"What do you suggest Minerva?"

"Put an end to it, don't let Potter compete!"

"You heard Barty the rules are clear."

"The devil with Barty and his rules, and since when did you accommodate the Ministry?!"

"Minerva with all due respect this is something that we can't just blow off like dust, this is something that tells us Harry has no choice but to compete. We can't get him out of it but maybe we can help him." Salena spoke up that time.

"I agree with Eleanor, we should also let this unfold for the time being. To see where it goes and if this has something to do with the Dark Lord." Severus stood beside Salena staring at Dumbledore.

"What?! Do nothing, offer him up as bait?! Potter is just a boy, not a piece of meat."

"Minerva, I know this is difficult but we don't have a choice. Alastor keep an eye on Harry but don't let him know anything. He's already anxious enough as it is knowing what lies ahead, but then again we all are." McGonagall and Moody left the room after that, whilst Dumbledore closed up the Pensieve after casting away the memory of that night. He turned to Salena and she looked at Snape.

"Did you see this coming Salena?"

"No Albus, I chose not to because I wanted to be surprised; now I wish I had seen this coming."

"It's not your fault; you were just as anxious as everyone else around here. This is what you'd call ironic."

"I know…"

"Salena I want you to help Alastor keep a close watch on Harry, I mean I want you to be sure he doesn't get hurt."

"That's going against the rules Albus."

"I know, but I don't want to see an innocent boy harmed in this dangerous game."

"There's three other innocent people in it Albus, but they're in it willingly."

"I appreciate your concern Salena, but I think it's best that you help Harry in any way possible as long as it doesn't break the rules."

"Alright, I'm going to find Naomi." Salena left kissing Snape's cheek and strolled back to the corridors hissing for Naomi.

"You called mistress?" the large anaconda slunk down from the ceiling cracks.

"I want you to get some rest right now but in the morning keep an eye on the Beauxbaton girls; I need to watch over Harry."

"Of course mistress."

"And don't get caught…remember what happened when you snuck into the girls bathroom and freaked out Moaning Myrtle?"

"Yes…" Naomi snickered but nodded and went back into the ceiling as Salena made her way back towards the secret passage to her room that led from a painting into a door hidden in her closet. The only issue being the tight tunnel she had to squeeze through. She walked quickly to the closet and came out in the passage behind the clothes making it to her room before sealing it.

'Time to change…' she turned her dress into her night robes and climbed into the bed; she checked the clock seeing it was almost midnight, took her sleeping potion and curled up under her sheets.

The next morning:

The sun awoke Salena from a dark dream, or dark as in black since nothing appeared that night. She felt as if all the energy had drained out of her that night, reason being she didn't dream but she probably tossed and turned during the whole thing. She checked the clock; it was almost ten, this meant she had overslept two hours but she still struggled to get out of bed and almost stumbled as she stood. Naomi wasn't in the room, probably on patrol. She only put on her clothes and did her hair plainly as she walked out into the empty corridors.

'I'm so exhausted; I don't know what's wrong.' She continued walking until she reached Severus's classroom; she opened the door but the place was empty. She was puzzled and scanned the room but nothing came up, she scanned the nearby classrooms, still nothing. She walked around the palace until she heard the sound of a cannon blow outside near the stadium.

'THE FIRST CHALLENGE?!!!!!' Salena ran to the window and saw the whole stadium filled with a large yellow dragon in the middle of it with the crowd shouting Diggory. 'Impossible, the first challenge isn't for three days!' she ran outside to run smack-dab into Snape. She fell on her back and looked up at him; he smiled and reached his hand out.

"Good morning sleeping beauty, nice of you to join us." She took his hand and stood up brushing herself off.

"What's going on, the challenge get moved earlier?"

"No, you slept for three days."

"What?! Impossible!"

"I'm afraid not, the day after the champion selection I tried to wake you but you were out like a light. The day after that and the day after that you didn't budge…"

"That can't be, I just went to sleep and took my sleeping potion before hand and…"

"Wait, you took a sleeping potion? That empty bottle I found next to your bed?"

"Yes why?"

"You drank the whole thing didn't you? You're supposed to take a small amount of potion to get you through the night not drink the whole thing otherwise you'll be asleep for days!" Salena mentally kicked herself for her stupidity, but brushed it off and stared at Snape.

"What's happening now?" Snape started walking out of the castle and back into the teacher's stadium.

"So far Diggory, Krum, and Delacour have won…Potter is about to make his entrance."

"Well let's move!!" Salena ran in front of Snape and went straight to the teacher's seats. Harry walked out from the cave and tried to move towards the golden egg but the large horntail attacked and threw him into the wall. He hid behind the rocks as the dragon tried to get him; Salena could sense his immediate fear but as she wanted to call out to him she spotted Rita Skeeter a few people down from her. She hadn't had any visions lately, so why not look now? She thought really hard searching for something connecting to Rita until a sudden vision finally came through.

Vision:

There were laughs, groans, taunts, all coming from the Hufflepuffs, Slytherins, Bulgarians; even the Beauxbaton girls were making jokes from the Daily Prophets all around the place. Salena couldn't get a clear view of the papers but she did see the pictures of Harry crossing his arms and placing them on his hips; the picture showed him flipping his hair and smiling at the camera, but it seemed off.

'A fake picture, so like that Rita.' The vision changed and this time she saw articles about Harry and Hermione being a couple, another about Hagrid, some about Crouch and Bagman, and more including interviews from Draco, Pansy, Crabbe, Goyle, probably more full of lies just to frame Harry.

'Something's gotta be done about this…best start with those kids first.'

End Vision:

Salena smirked as she stared out at the blank stadium not noticing Harry had gone missing with the horntail. She came to when she realized how silent it was, looking around and watching for something to fly up back to the stadium. Just then a whooshing sound came through the wind and Harry swooped down with his broomstick and snatched up the golden egg. The crowd cheered wildly and so did some of the teachers; Salena nudged Snape and they snuck away back onto the trail towards the castle.

"You had a vision?"

"Oh yes, you know you could've warned me about that Skeeter woman, my vision showed me her little report on Harry. Frankly I'm rather insulted by it…"

"Why so?"

"She's abusing her power with lies; I saw the articles in my vision."

"Well we can't really do anything about it, unless you have something bigger for her readers."

"I'm sure I can find something…in the mean time, bring Harry to my office later. I think the boy needs a few tips on this tournament." Salena left to her quarters and searched through a row of books on Wizard Gaming History. She started jotting through pages but found nothing on the Tri-Wizard Tournament, just on Quidditch and other small wizard games, mainly ones that were banned from Hogwarts due to lack of interest or increased risks of death or injury.

'Dammit, nothing!' she was about to flip through more books when Harry walked in with Severus.

"Professor, you wanted to see me?" Salena smiled and motioned for Harry to sit in the chair in front of her desk.

"Yes Mr. Potter, please take a seat." The boy nodded and sat in front of her desk in the green leather chair. "I was quite intrigued by your performance out there; I'd almost suggest you winged it." She smiled and Harry's face flushed a slight pink.

"I-I kind of did professor…"

"I know, I know you didn't enter the tournament Harry and I know that the other students have been giving you a hard time." Harry looked a bit confused. "I saw the badges, and the daily prophet. That Rita Skeeter is quite the little mole in journalism."

"But you were…ill when the tournament started. You missed the badges and the article…."

"I have my ways, stupid sleeping potion kept me out of it. I took one too many drops and look I end up sleeping for three days."

"You were informed?"

"Yes, but not about the papers; I woke up just in time to see you in action."

"Then how…?" just then Professor Snape walked in and stood behind Harry's chair.

"Professor Sardinia…"

"Easy Severus, I think it's time the boy knows something about me. He has been curious after all…"

"What do you mean?"

"Oh you know, the first three years he's been here I've known almost everything that's happened to him, in fact I know he's been talking to his friends wondering how I was almost everywhere every minute of every day. Including what's happened recently…"

"Your gift of course…" Harry was getting really confused at the two.

"Excuse me…I'm not sure what exactly this has to do with me?" Salena just smiled and Snape stared.

"Potter, you have been curious about Professor Sardinia have you not?" Harry just nodded but hesitantly.

"I remember wondering about her, but everyone is…"

"Maybe so, but surely you think she's rather….what's the word……..odd?" That gave Snape a good whack upside the head.

"What Professor Snape means is that I'm a little on the strange side, you know like you when you snuck off to save Ginny Weasley, I saw you fight the basilisk and specifically stab it in the mouth through the nose." Harry's eyes widened at that.

"How did you…?"

"I saw it Harry, but not until after I'd awoken from my little slumber."

"You're like Professor Trelawney?"

"In a way, but my visions are accurate. I haven't seen much for the future of the tournament, but I do know things will take a turn for the worst." Snape nodded and looked at Harry.

"She's rather strange Mr. Potter, but she's been looking out for you since she first came here."

"Right Severus, and Harry I have to say that Dumbledore's asked me to keep an eye on you until the time comes when you'll need to defend yourself. I will take care of Skeeter but I want you to keep continuing on until the tournament is finished, and be careful of who you're with, you never know who might be watching."

"Professor I don't feel like I've done much."

"Oh don't worry, you will soon enough. In the mean time, just keep your guard up and rely on your friends for support, you're going to need it."

"Yes ma'am."

"Good you're dismissed." Harry got up and left the room shutting the door behind him. Snape locked the door and turned back to Salena. She raised an eyebrow giving him a seductive smile.

"Shall we dear?" she sat up on her desk crossing her legs with both hands at her sides.

"Yes by all means." He instantly grabbed and kissed Salena full on the lips as her legs went around his waist but they didn't go far. Salena may have been the daughter of Salazar but damn she knew exactly what a man like Snape needed.

Yeah sorry had to cut it short but I got a bit of writer's block for this story so it might be a while. I'll be trying to update soon on the Sister Malfoy but that's going to need some ideas to come up. Enjoy this chapter and be patient for the next one. Later…..:D
