It was silent. None of them wanted to be the first to speak.

"Sorry, Harry. Explain the dream again?" Parker tilted her head.

"Well, long story short, the kids are in the Forbidden Forest." Harry sighed.

"No, they can't- How?" Neville shook his head.

"I haven't had a dream like it in ages but they were there, I know it." Harry told him.

All of a sudden, they could hear a rumble from the fireplace before Draco came falling down, covered in suit.

"Where are my nieces and nephew?" Draco coughed, "Sorry about your floor, Minerva."

"I dare say it's my fault for owning a chimney." McGonagall chuckled

"Quite a surprise to see you, Draco. I thought you didn't believe in my dreams." Harry rubbed his neck.

"I don't, but I trust your luck." Draco told him,"Harry Potter is always where the action is at, and I want those kids back safe."

"Then let's get to the Forbidden Forest and find them." Ginny nodded.

Parker quickly took her friends hand and left first, "We'll get to them first."

"We're fast!" Erica nodded quickly, going to run.

"We don't want to alert the students." Neville followed after them, shortly meeting up with Blaise down the hall.

"Fair enough." Erica sighed.

"We have volunteers looking for them all." Blaise nodded.

"Oh, nice to see you Blaise." Erica told him.

"Hi Er." Blaise gave a wave with a small smile.

"Well, we've got a job to do." Erica nodded.

"We'll find them." Blaise assured her.

"I know we will, we have to." Erica bit her lip.

They all nodded and walked down the stairs.

"Expelliarmus!" Trixie pointed her wand at Delphi.

Delphi's wand then flew out of her hand and the others clapped.

"Well done, Trixie. You're getting good at that spell." Delphi smiled.

"Thank you Delphi." Trixie smiled and handed her the wand back.

"You're a positively disarming young woman." Delphi winked after speaking in a posh voice.

Trixie chuckled and stepped back, letting the others go.

"Expelliarmus!" Cedar aimed at Delphi.

"And we have a winner." Delphi laughed as her wand flew.

"Yes!" Cedar cheered.

"Hey, I want a turn." Matteo nudged Cedar.

"You can have one then, lover boy." Cedar nudged him back.

"Shut up, lover girl." He whispered to her with a smirk.

"You've dated like three of my friends." Cedar muttered.

"You like her." He nodded to Delphi.

"As do you." Cedar crossed her arms.

Matteo shrugged and turned to Delphi, "Expelliarmus!"

Delphi's wand flew from her hand and she smiled,"Well done, Matteo."

"I'm not sure." Delphi shrugged,"How about you two go against each other, just a playful duel."

"A duel? But we're... Not meant to." Trixie shook her head.

"Let's do it." Cedar smirked.

"Guys.' Trixie went to stand up.

"You ready?" Cedar stepped in front of Matteo.

"Born ready." Matteo held out his wand.

Cedar drew her wand and began to pace from Matteo.

"Guys, I don't think this is the best-" Trixie went to step forward.

"Expelliarmus!" Cedar turned.

Matteo quickly dodged it, firing a spell back.

"Delphi, stop this." Trixie pointed.

Delphi ignored Trixie as the duel continued.

"Delphi." Trixie pushed her.

"Hush." Delphi told her,"This is fun."

"It's not fun. They'll hurt each other." Trixie crossed her arms.

That's when sparks flew past them both. The girls ducked down, making sure they didn't get hit.

"That all you got?" Cedar smirked.

"Oh, not at all." Matteo chuckled and cast a spell at her.

The spell hit her shoulder but she was still standing and she fired another spell back at him.

"Ow- Shit!" Matteo fell to the ground.

"Do I win?" Cedar looked at him on the ground.

"Yeah, but only cause you bloody hurt me!" Matteo pointed.

"You never said I couldn't.' Cedar crossed her arms,"Besides, that spell you hit my shoulder with hurt."

"Well done, guys." Delphi clapped.

"Here." Cedar offered Matteo her hand.

"Thanks." Matteo sighed and pulled himself up.

"Well, now what?" Cedar turned to Delphi.

"Are we sure this will work?" Trixie raised a brow.

"Of course it will." Delphi nodded.

"It's a brilliant plan . The secret to not getting Cedric killed is to stop him winning the Triwizard Tournament. If he doesn't win, he can't be killed." Matteo nodded.

"Therefore, we just need to make sure he scores less points than Harry." Cedar nodded as well.

"So we just need to mess up his chances supremely badly in task one. The first task is getting a golden egg from a dragon, how did Cedric distract the dragon?" Delphi raised a brow.

"Oh, he turned a rock into a dog." Cedar told them.

"You guys are gonna need to wear these." Delphi pulled out three bags.

"Hm?" Cedar raised a brow and peeked inside.

There was two blue uniforms and a robe.

"Seriously?" Matteo looked up at Delphi,"I have to wear this?"

"Yes, you do." Delphi nodded.

"Bu-" Matteo began.

"Just put it on." Cedar rolled her eyes.

"Oh, a skirt." Trixie hummed and walked off to a large tree.

"It's ugly." Matteo groaned and walked off.

"Ain't that the truth." Cedar smiled as she went and changed.

"Oh, this is nice." Trixie smiled as she twirled.

"Yeah, it's alright." Cedar nodded.

"This is itchy!" They heard Matteo whine.

"Stop complaining!" Cedar rolled her eyes.

"Look at this!' Matteo walked over and showed them the oversized jacket.

Cedar covered her mouth as she burst out laughing.

"It looks... Great." Trixie laughed.

"You're so small!" Cedar pointed.

"The clothes are big, shut it." He pointed back.

"Mine are too small but you don't see me complaining." She crossed her arms.

"It looks good on you two, at least." He muttered.

"I know." Cedar nodded.

"I like it." Trixie hummed.

"Well, shall we get this show on the road?" Cedar looked around.

"Yes, we shall." Delphi nodded.

"Wait, you don't have a uniform." Trixie pointed.

"Trix, I'm flattered but I don't think I can pretend to be a student, do you? I'll just keep in the background and pretend to be a... Ooh, maybe I could pretend to be a dragon tamer. You're doing all the spell stuff anyway." She shrugged.

"Yeah, you probably shouldn't come." Trixie nodded.

"What?" Delphi looked at her.

"It'll be best, you might draw unwanted attention to us. Let's go." Trixie looked to the others.

"But I-I have to. He's my cousin. Cedar? Matt?" Delphi blinked.

"Just stay, we'll make sure it goes well." Trixie shook her head.

"But without me, you won't be able to work the Time Turner." Delphi reminded her.

"Then tell us how." Trixie sighed, she kept thinking about the distrust Phoenix had for Delphi.

"You already taught us." Matteo slowly nodded.

"We should hurry up guys, I can hear people coming." Cedar urged them

"Thank you, Delphi." Matteo nodded as he took out the Time Turner.

Cedar quickly moved closer to Matteo as the voices of their parents drew closer.

"Girls? Matteo?!" Harry shouted.

"Cedar?" Erica called.

"Shit." Cedar muttered.

"They'll stop you all. You need to go now." Delphi pointed.

"Turn it." Cedar nodded, grabbing Trixie.

"I'm going as fast as I-" Matteo began before it spun and the three disappeared.

When the others walked, they heard hooves...Bane?

"Bane? Have you seen the kids?" Erica questioned him.

"I've seen them in the movements of the stars." Bane nodded.

"Which means?" Ron sighed.

"There is a black cloud surrounding them all." Bane informed them.

"Doesn't that sound good guys?" Erica turned to look at the others.

"You need to find them, or it will be too late." Bane sighed and quickly sped off.

"Well, that means we've got less time than we thought." Draco shook his head.

"I saw light over here." Parker continued walking.

"Right." Erica nodded and followed her.

They followed the footprints until they just..Disappeared.

"Now this doesn't make any sense." Hermione bent down.

"I never taught the kids apparition... So it can't be that." Parker sighed.

"As far as I'm aware, there aren't any giant birds that would fly them off either." Erica shook her head.

"Where could they be?" Harry sighed.

"Well, they have to be somewhere." Ron looked around.

"We won't stop." Blaise shook his head.

"It's not like we can." Erica sighed.

"We'll find them, don't worry." Neville nodded to Erica.

"I'm not worried." Erica shook her head,"I know we'll find them."
