Note: I'm posting two chapters tonight because why not?


~~~~~~~~~~~~


I hope your summer was well. My was intersting, eventful but not completly satisfying. The days i write to you make me more happier. Its a reminder taht i can be me. I haven't really felt like myself in a long time. I hope to see you soon in hogwarts.


Well i will see you, you can guess around and try to find me. Please write back. I haven't heard from you in so long.


-M


Wasn't he short and the point.


I mean not that I'm complaining but sometimes our letters get short and we stop contacting each other then we just got back into long letters. But lately I was the one that hasn't been replying back. Not that I don't want to it's just--.


"Children supper ready!" Mrs. Weasley wrote.


"Some on Davina." Ginny said coming in the room.


I grabbed a piece of paper and quickly wrote.


I'm sorry I haven't written back. I've been a preoccupied. Summer's been fine, everything was the usual.


I'm fine and I'll write back soon.


-D


I grabbed Athena, let her out with the letter in her beak and then shut the window. Rushing down and everyone ready for dinner.


Ginny and I sat together talking while we grabbed our plates. Then she brought it up.


"So any news?" she asked elbowing me playfully.


"Haven't really had time to answer him back. Besides, he nothing more than a friend."


"No it's not." she said. "He's completly smitten with you. You're just blind to see it." she said in a bus tone as Ron and Harry were nearby talking to each other and Fred and George. Even Charlie was here along with Bill Weasley.


"Like you are so smitten with my brother?" I teased back as she froze and looked at me as i smiled. "I'm his sister, that and I know you. It wasn't really that hard to piece together. Not to mention our frist year on Valentine's day."


She grabbed my arms tightly. "You can not tell anyone. Promise me. Not even my brothers know."


"Ow. Promise." I said. "Besides you're already helping me with my problem. I'm trying what I can with Harry but he's compeltly blindsided by Cho."


"Cho Chang?"


I nodded. "Something is not settling right, if she does like my brother she wouldn't have to make it so hard. Not to mention I think she knows about Harry's feelings but won't do anything."


She looked down. "What kind of person does that?"


"A lot of people." I responded.


"What are you two girls talking about?" Ron asked.


"Nothing." We both said. looking at each other we laughed which made our brothers confused. we waited till we finished dinner and were helping Mrs. Weasley wash the dishes when we continued our conversation.


"You'd have to admit though." ginny said smiling a bit. "That prank you pulled with the twins on Malfoy was worth it."


We both laughed and just continued talking.


"Alright you two." Mrs. Weasley said coming up to us once we finished. "Time for bed. Tommorrow is a big day."


"Of course mum." Ginny said we both headed upstairs to Ginny's room where there was two beds one for me and the other was hers. I grabbed my journal as I wrote about what happened today.


"Do you ever miss her?" Ginny ask. "you're mother?"


"Yes, mostly saddens me that I'll never know her. Harry's lucky he had some impression on him, I was barely a day old when they died. Just wish I knew them. My father and mother."


"Get some sleep Davina, good night."


"Goodnight Ginny."


I place the letter I got earlier inside my journal and place it on the stand beside me. I got under the covers as Ginny turned off the light as we were both drifting off to sleep.


Tomorrow Mr. Weasley was taking us somewhere, where no had a clue. Not even the twins knew where.


~~~~~~~~~~


Ginny adn I woke up first before Ron, Harry, Fred, and George. Hermoine had just entered the house as Fred and George were ready and packed. Ginny and I were helping Mrs. Weasley in the kitchen.


"Hermione could you go wake up Harry and Ron." Mrs. Weasley said. "Tell them breakfast is ready and that it's almost time for you all to go."


"Of course."


Ginny and I sat down as began to eat. As I ate I felt my head spinning a little, I began massaging the side of my head slowly as it was easing up. It happens a lot, Harry gets them too but he gets dreams when them but it was his scar that pained him. He thinks it means something. He says he can see Voldemort and two other men with a snake. I'm sure he told Ron and Hermoine about it already. But there was no one else either of us have mentioned it too.


"Davina are you alright?" Mrs. Weasley asked.


I nodded. "I just got nauses for a moment."


She smiled. "Here i'll get you somethnig for that."


The feeling went away and I could finally breathe normally. Still it was... strange.


Harry and Ron joined us a few mintues later and we finished up eating and headed out. Saying goodbye to Mrs. Weasley as we walk out into the forest.


"Hey dad." Ron shouted after a while walking into the forest. "Where are we going?"


"Haven't the foggiest." Mr. Weasley said, but we knew that was a lie. He knew where we were going. "But keep up."


We kept walking Ginny and I talking a bit as Hermoine was on the side listening and/or going back and forth between Ginny and me, and Ron and Harry. After five minutes, since Ron asked the question, we heard and saw a man up a head.


"Arthur!" He shouted. "It's about time, son."


"Sorry Amos." Mr. Weasley said as we appoarched the man. "Some of us had a sleepy start." He glanced back and looked at Harry and Ron. Ron was yawning not listening to his father's words. "This is Amos Diggory everyone." wait Diggory as in...? "He works with me in the minstry."


Just as I as I thought of it. Someone jumped down from the tree, making me and Ginny jump a bit. Well I jumped more than Ginny. Harry caught me before anyone could notice, but I think some of them did.


"And this strapping young lad must be Cedric am I right?" Mr. Weasley said holding his hand out towards Cedric.


"Sir." Cedric said taking Mr. Weasley's hand and shaking it.


"Well come on then." Amos said as Mr. Weasley began to lead everyone.


My brother walked with me as Amos waited for us.


"Merlin's beard you must be Harry Potter!" Mr. Diggory said. He held out his hand as my brother took it.


"Yes sir." my brother said fixing his bag since it was slipping off.


"And you must be Davina." He said with a bit more excitement.


"Hello Mr. Diggory." I said taking his hand.


"It's a pleasure to meet you two." He said.


"It's a pleasure to meet you sir." Harry answered for both of us.


He smiled, letting out a chuckle, and patted my brother on the back as we followed the others. We finally were out of the woods and headed up a cliff. I was back to Ginny's side as hiked up the cliff and there was a old boot right there in the center.


"Um...."


"Come on." Ginny said grabbing my hand as we went to stand in front of it.


"Come on everyone get into position."


Ginny pulled me with her as I heard fred and George telling my brother this was a portkey. Wait a portkey! As in it could take us anywhere in the world portkey. Well techincally not anywhere it was designed to go somewhere. Ginny and I got down to lay on our stomachs and held onto the boot.


"Alright ready? After three. One... two..."


"Harry!" I heard mr. Weasley shouted.


I saw my brother quickly grabbing the boot.


"Three."


Everything began to spinn as we felt ourselves beging lift off from the grounf. Some of us began to scream, and this wasn't very brillant idea.


"Alright now, everyone let go."


"What?!" Hermione and I shouted at the same time.


"Now!" Mr. Weasley said and we all did what we were told. We all flew back and sudenly my back hit the ground alongside me was my brother and Ginny on the other. I let out a groan as I sat up and saw Mr. Weasley, Mr. Diggory, and Cedric smiling and coming down with ease. We all got up and followed the three as we heard music and chatter.


"Come on, look at that." Amos Diggroy said.


"Well kids welcome to the Qudditch World Cup." Mr. Weasley shouted as we were on top and saw where we really were. We followed Mr. Weasly as everything and everyone was exciting from each way.


"Amazing isn't it?" Cedric said coming out of nowhere.


"It is." I said still taking it in.


"Cedric Diggory."


I took his hand. "I know, we've met before."


He smiled. "Still... wanted to introduce myself properly."


"Well then. Davina Potter."


"Are you alright? I saw you landed on back."


I shrugged. "I'm alright, I've had worse falls."


He smiled at me as we walk through the campsites that were celebrating and excited for the game.


"You're going to enjoy it, I promise."


"How can you promise something like that?"


"I just know."


"Davina!" Ginny grabbed my arm and pulled me forward as we followed Mr. Weasley, since the Diggory's were going somehwere else.


We walked a bit and then finally Mr. weasly said.


"Ah! Home sweet home." He walked over to a tent and opened one of the flaps. "Alright get in everyone."


I was confused at first but didn't have time to ask a question since Ginny pulled me in and inside was much bigger than I'd imagine. Hermoine joined us as we went to choose our beds.


"Oh I'm famish." Hermione said.


"I got it." I rushed to the kitchen where Ron has already entered the kitchen to look for something.


"Ron come out from the kitchen, we're all hungry."


"I've got it, Mr. weasly." I said getting things prepare for lunch.


"Ah, let me help." He said joining me. Ginny also jumped in and we began to make lunch for everyone. We ate and looked around a bit before coming back to the tent and getting ready for the tourment. As soon as everyone was ready we headed out and to the stadium.


"I don't know weather to be nervous ro excited." Harry said to me.


"Both."


We entered the stadium and started all the way up to the top.


"Blimey dad, how far up are we?" Ron asked.


"Well put it this way."


You've got to be joking.


"If it rains you're the first to know."


We all looked over and saw Lucius and Draco Malfoy walking. Isn't there a place in the enitre wizarding world where we don't run into them? Honestly. It seems they are everywhere we are. Their like weasels that pop everywhere.


"Father and I are in the ministers box by invention of Cornelius Fudge himself." Draco started boasting. I look at ginny as we both rolled our eyes then look back at the Malfoy's.


"Don't boast Draco." I saw Lucius swing his cane and hit his chest. Which made me smile a bit. "There's no need with these people."


There was nothing I wanted more than to punch both of them across their face when they gave us that evil smile. I glared for a bit before realizing it was not worth the rage right now. That and when I looked at Draco, I had found him looking at me. Quickly we all turned to leave, which broke our eye contact. But when we did, Lucius grabbed my brother's arm with his cane. I was at Harry's side in an instance, glaring at Mr. Malfoy.


"Do enjoy yourself won't you? While you can." he said.


Harry and I both gave him a hard look as he looked at both of us. He finally relased my brother arm as I glance towards Draco who looked over at me with this certain michevous smile. I rolled my eyes and followed everyone else as we headed up to the top where our places were.


We watch as the Irish and the Bulgarians teams come out. Everyone was fasincate with Viktor Krum. Especially Ron.


The match had began and there wasn't quite as exhilarating as this. Uncle Vernon never brought us to anything like this before, then again why would he? It was only Dudley that would go anyways. But this was way far better, i think Dudley would be extremely jealous. It would take years to calm him down if he ever found out.


~~~~~~~


At the end of the game, we were back at the tent as everyone was dancing. And by everyone I meant the boys. That and some of them may have a tiny bit to drink. Ginny, Hermoine and I watch as they were making a fool of themselves. I had grabbed my jounral and began writing everything down, all the silly and embracing things.


"He like a bird when he rides the wind." Ron said.


I smiled and looked at Harry who was also smiling.


"He's more than an athletic." Ron continued. "He's an artist."


"You're in love Ron." Ginny said passing by her brother.


"Shut up sis." Ron said.


"Viktor I love you." one of the twins started signing.


"Vicktor i do." the other continued


"Whether part my heart beats only for you." my brother joined in with the twins.


"They're idiots." I told Ginny as she sat down next to me.


"Agreed."


There was a loud explosion outside and it seemed only to get louder.


"Looks like the Irish got their pride on." And they continued dancing like crazy.


"Stop! Stop it!" Mr. Weasley rushed in and stopped us. "It's not the Irish." He rushed over to ginny and I. "W'eve got to get out of here now."


I looked at Harry as we both got onto our feet. Harry grabbed my arm as we got out of the tent. I held onto my journal with dear life.


There was screaming and explosions outside.


"Fred. George. Ginny and Davina are your responiblity get to the portkey now!" Mr. Weasley pulled out his wand and went in a differnet direction. Harry grabbed me again as we followed them through the crowd. There were more explosions and a loud eerie noise that was making things more terrfiying. In the mist, Harry's grip loosened and we slip away from the each other.


"Harry!" I shouted once I saw he was no longer at my side. "Harry!"


"Come on." Ron said grabbing me.


"No!" I pulled out and began going through the crowd to find my brother. "Harry!"


That's when I bumped into someone and hit the ground. I raised my hands over my head as people ran over and around me. I then look up and crawled over behind a tent. I zip up my sweater and place my journal inside thanking that this wasn't a thick journal I usually wrote in. Once it was clear from the rampage of people running I got on my feet and ran trying to find my brother.


"Harry!" I shouted through the chaos but nothing, somone shoved me again and O fell over a barrel as i landed on my side.


"Gordic." I muttered to myself, thankful that I ran into the barrel with my journal protecting me because that hurt.


I cursed as I rosed to my feet and then someone grabbed my arms and starting dragging me in a different direction.


"Let me go!" I shouted shoving whoever it was and running the oppsite way everyone else is going. Finally getting a good look at my captor and anger was fueling inside of me.


"Are you mad?!" he said.


Draco Malfoy was holding onto me as we ran into the forest.


"No!" I said trying to get out of his grip. "Let me go Malfoy!"


"Not if you have a sudden death wish."


"Like you care."


"If you're asking to be dead, I assure you won't cheat it." He said gripping my wrist tigthly.


"You have no idea. Harry he's-"


"I don't bloody care." He shouted bending down and grabbed me by my knees, swinging me over his shoulder with my upper body hanging off from behind him, and carried me over to the woods.


"Put me down Mafloy!" I told him but being the arrogant person he was, he wouldn't listen.


"If you don't stay quite you'll get us both killed."


Once we got there he placed me on my feet as I shoved him off.


"What the bloody hell is wrong with you?!" I shouted.


"Me? Looks who's talking." He threw back at me.


"My brother is out there--"


"Does it look like I give a damn?! Potter could die and I wouldn't care one bit, bet he's already dead."


I grabbed a rock and threw it at him. He caught it just as it hit him on his stomach.


"Bloody hell!" He hissed.


"Don't you dare say such a thing, Malfoy!"


"What are you going to do about it? It'll be a mircale if he makes it out alive."


I went at him but he grabbed both my wrist holding them away from him from letting me do anything else.


"Are you finished?" he said annoyed.


I notice how close the two of us were, but that wasn't the least bit of my worries. He just annoyed me at this point and he if wasn't going to let me go after Harry....


"Why save me?" I asked taking deep breaths.


He didn't answer.


"Answer the bloody question." I pulled away from his grasp.


"I don't have to answer and listen to you."


His eyes harden on mine and that's when i notice it, his blue stormy eyes that were focused onto me. His eyes soften as he look down at the space between us, I wanted to say something snappy at him but for some odd reason I couldn't find the words to say them. Something took a hold of me. I must've hit my head too many times because I think I was imagining Malfoy leaning closer and his eyes telling me a whole different meaning.


"Davina!"


Cedric came over before I could say anything else, and thankfully broke our eye contact. I swore my heart was picking up and I felt heat going to my cheeks. I blame the anger because what else is there?


"Malfoy, I've got her." he said taking my arm without Draco's permisson. "Come on, we have to go." Then dragging me away.


"No! Harry! I can't leave my brother!"


"He's going to be alright. Trust me on that." Cedric said holding me close to him as we made our way through the crowd.


I felt something hit me but nothing did. We made it to the portkey then Ginny, Fred and George saw us.


"Let's go." Cedric said.


"I'm not leaving my brother."


"You're friends already went after him." He answered as we got down and used the portkey to get back where we were. This time Cedric was holding onto me the entire time. We made it back where we first saw the portkey. And we just waited.


Cedric was standing near the portkey incase i got any ideas of going back. It was hours and still nothing.


"Davina, it's going to be alright." Ginny said trying to sooth me.


"Who were those men?" I asked looking at the four people present in front of me.


"Death eaters." Cedric said. "They're followers."


"Followers of who?"


"You-know-who." He said.


And that's all I needed to know. My eyes widen and I began to panic even more.


"You have to let me go back."


"And let you get yourself kill?" Percy asked as if I meant as a joke. "Not a chance."


"Then you know that if they find my brother Voldemort would have him killed."


"He's gone, dead for all we know." Cedric retorted. "He's not coming back."


"How do you know?"


"The ministry won't allow it to happen." Percy jump in.


"Aren't you at least bit afraid of him?" Cedric ask.


"I'm not afraid of Voldemort." I looked at Cedric.


We waited even more, no one talking except the twins who were discussing about their new product.


Just then the portkey opened and the golden trio and Mr. Weasley came out with Mr. Diggory.


"Harry!" I ran towards him.


"Davina!"


"Dad!" I heard Cedric shout in relief.


I embraced my brother and we held each other tightly. "I'm alright." Harry said to me. "I'm alright."


"You had me worried." I spoke low for only him to hear.


"I was more worried about you." He replied. "Thought I lost you in the mess."


We headed back to the weasly's house, all of our thigns were there. At night I wrote in my jounrel the madness and defiantly how scared I was of losing Harry. After that I went to bed laying there, staring at the ceiling while playing with my necklace. There was a pedent that belong to my mother and a locket which Harry had gotten for me. I tried to fall asleep but ended up rethinking about tonight's event over and over in my head. I'd only got glimspe of the men who were marching in with pointy hats and a mask over them. They held torches as they began to ignite things on fire. They even held a muggle family hostage. Then that mark in the sky.


Shaking my head from all those thoughts, I turned to see Ginny asleep and closed my eyes muting my thoughts.


Tomorrow we were going to Diagon Alley to grab somethings for school, then we head to the train and to Hogwarts the next day.
