The group walked down the crowded path to the stadium. Harry, Harmony, Ron, and Hermione had wandered off, looking around and buying things at the kiosks placed around. Bill was talking to Charlie about Adria. "Do you like her?" He asked. 

"I dunno! I mean she's amazing, but I don't know if I would date her." Charlie exclaimed in exasperation. Bill glanced back at Juliane and Adria who were laughing at something Juliane had said. 

"Well, I think, that you know what you want, you're just afraid to tell her." Bill said knowingly. Charlie turned a faint pink and seemed to ponder the thought for a while before answering. 

"Maybe I do." He murmured but before he could say more, Juliane and Adria both walked over to the two. Juliane took Bill's hand, and Adria grabbed Charlie's arm. 

"Come on then!" Juliane exclaimed pulling him down the path until they got to the stadium. Harry, Harmony, Hermione, and Ron met the group up there. They climbed the staircase to the top box. By the time they all got up there, the entire group was panting. 

"I really need to work out more." Adria huffed getting strange looks from the family. 

"You work with dragons woman!" Alex exclaimed. 

"Honestly Dria." Juliane said shaking her head. Adria made a face at the two before sitting down excitedly. 

"Oh, I can't wait! Nikio would love this!" She giggled. 

"When are you gonna take Nikio to the Burrow?" Juliane asked. 

"When Tonks comes so I can scare the pants off of her." Adria said seriously. 

"Why isn't she coming to the World Cup? I need to see my Petite soeur." Juliane said, pulling out some of her French. 

"She's still in Auror training with Alec." Adria 'ooed' with Juliane and Alex. 

"They make the perfect couple." Juliane said as the girls took their seats. 

"Ugh, I wish I had someone like that." Alex sighed. 

"What about that Diggory boy you always write about in your letters?" Juliane offered. Alex turned a faint pink before answering. 

"Ced? He's one of my best friends... I can't like him like that. What about you and Charlie Dria?" Alex skilfully turned the conversation around to Adria, who turned red. 

"You can't turn this conversation around! I see the way you look at him at school!" Hope exclaimed pointing a finger in Alex's face. 

"I do not! But seriously, I want to know when Adria and Charlie are going to get together." The group turned to Adria. 

"Maybe I do, maybe I don't." She said before turning to look at the pitch. 

"Dria!" Juliane groaned. 

"Everyone please take your seats, the game is starting in five minuets." Ludo Bagman's voice echoed through the stadium. 

"Bye girls!" Juliane switched seats with Charlie, who now sat next to Adria, and Alex moved to her triplets. Hope sat in between Harmony and Harry. 

"Excited?" Bill asked intertwining their hands. Juliane turned to him and they were a few centimeters away from each other. There was a flash and a click and they turned to Hope, who shrugged lowering her magical camera. 

"You'll want to remember this day." She said knowingly. The picture came out of  the camera, and she looked at it before smiling softly and handing it to the two, It showed Juliane turning to Bill with an excited look in her green eyes, and Bill smiling lovingly at her. Juliane made two copies of it, before handing one to Hope to put in her scrap book, and one to Bill. Bill smiled at the picture and turned to Juliane. 

"Now that is a good picture." He said before turning to Hope. "Thank you." 

"Anytime." Hope responded. Juliane and Bill chatted about countless things until the game started. 

"LADIES AND GENTLEMEN WELCOME TO THE FINAL OF THE FOUR HUNDRED AND TWENTY-SECOND QUIDDITCH WORLD CUP!" Bagman's voice sounded across the stadium. The crowd went wild. Adria was screaming and cheering in her seat along with Charlie and Bill and Juliane were cheering wildly. Hope was preparing her camera for the game, and Harry and Harmony staring at the score board blankly. Flags were being waved across the stadium, and national anthems were screamed across the pitch.  "AND NOW, WITHOUT FURTHER ADO, ALLOW ME TO INTRODUCE... THE BULGARIAN NATIONAL TEAM MASCOTS!" 

"I wonder what they brought," Mr. Weasley said leaning forward before jumping back and hurridly cleaning his glasses. "Veela!" 

"What are..." Harry started but trailed off when hundreds of Veela were gliding magically across the pitch. The Veela started beautifully. They started to dance faster and faster and a the males in the pitch stood up. Juliane looked over to Bill, who had his eyes screwed shut tightly, and then looked over to Charlie who looked the same. Females all over the stadium were trying make their partners sit down.

"Harry what are you doing!?" Harmony exclaimed as Harry walked forwards. 

"Fred! George! Sit back down!" Hope and Alex tried to get the two male triplets to sit back in their seats. Fred and George had identical dreamy looks in their eyes as they struggled in the girl's holds. 

"Allow me." Adria said before nudging Juliane. The two stood in front of a triplet, raised their arm, and slapped them across the face. 

"Oww! Adria! What was that for!"George exclaimed as he jumped out of his daze, and saw Adria standing over him. Fred rubbed the side of his face scowling. 

"You were about to jump into the stands." Adria said before sitting down. The music stopped and the Veela stopped dancing. Angry yells filled the stadium as people didn't want the Veela to stop. Juliane laughed and turned Bill's, who still had his eyes closed, face towards her. 

"Their done." She said softly before turning to Ron, who was shredding the shamrock in his hat, and took it out of his hands. "I think you may want this after Ireland have their win." She smirked. 

"Huh?" Asked Ron, who was still transfixed with the Veela standing on the side of the field. Hermione made a tutting noise while Harmony pulled Harry back in his seat. 

"Honestly!" She was exclaiming. Hope was examining the side of Fred's face, while Alex was examining George's. 

"I'm telling you, there's no hand print!" Hope exclaimed.

 "There is on George!" Alex called over. 

"Thanks a lot Dria." George grumbled. 

"You're welcome!" Adria answered cheerfully. 

"And now," Bagman roared, "Kindly put your wands in the air for the Irish national Team Mascots!" In the next moment, a great green and Gold comet came zooming into the stadium. It did one lap around the stadium before it split into two smaller comets, and hurtled towards a goal post. Suddenly, a rainbow arched across the field, and connected two balls of light. The crowed started in awe at the light as the rainbow faded and the balls of light merged. They formed a giant shimmering shamrock that rose up, and began to soar over the stands with something like golden rain falling from it. 

"Excellent!" Ron yelled as the shamrock soared over them, heavy gold coins raining from it. Juliane realized that there were thousands of leprechauns carrying a small gold or green lamps in their hands flying over them. 

"Leprechauns!" Adria exclaimed catching some of the coins in her hands. 

"Look at all this gold!" Alex exclaimed collecting great handfuls and stuffing them into her pockets. The giant shamrock dissolved and the leprechauns drifted softly down to the field on the opposite side of the veela. They settled cross-legged on the grass to watch the match. 

"AND NOW, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, KINDLY WELCOME... THE BULGARIAN NATIONAL QUIDDITCH TEAM!" The Bulgarian side cheered and clapped wildly in the stands. "I GIVE YOU... DIMITROV!" A scarlet blur shot onto the field. The Bulgarian side erupted in wild applause. "IVANOVA!" Another blur zoomed onto the field. "ZOGRAF! LEVSKI! VILCHANOV! VOLKOV! AAAANNNDDD... KRUM!"  

"That's him!" Ron screamed over all the noise following Krum with his Omnioculars. 

"AND NOW... PLEASE GREET... THE IRISH NATIONAL QUIDDITCH TEAM!" The Irish side went wild. "PRESENTING... CONNOLLY! RYAN! TROY! MULLET! MORAN! QUIGLEY! AAANNNDDD LYNCH!" Juliane stood up and cheered along with the rest of the Irish fans. The game started and Juliane watched with amazement filled eyes. She ooed and aahed along with the crowd. Bill looked over at Juliane happily. She glanced over and smiled back at him before turning back to the game. 

"Allons y! Obtenez le snitch!" She shouted standing up. Some of the group looked over at her as she blushed and sat back down. "What?" She asked Bill who was staring at her, his mouth slightly ajar. "I'm a competitive person." The game carried on. In the end, Krum caught the snitch but the Irish still won. 

                                                                                 ***

The group sat by the warm fire as laughter and stories floated around. "There's no one like Krum. He's like a bird the way he rides the wind. He's more than an athlete, he's an artist." Ron said dreamily. 

"Think you're in love Ron?" Ginny laughed nudging Juliane who got a wicked look on her face before turning to the triplets and whispering something in their ears. They nodded. 

"Viktor I love you! Viktor I do!" They started singing. Harry let out a loud laugh before joining in along with the rest of the group. 

"When we're apart my heart beats only for youuu!" There were loud screams and the booms of fireworks from outside. 

"Sounds like the Irish have got their pride on." Fred remarked. At that moment Arthur came running in. 

"It's not the Irish. We've got to get out of here. NOW!" He said. The group was instantly thrown into panic. 

"Triplets, you're in charge of Ginny! Get to the portkey and stay together." Arthur barked. The Potters ran out with Hermione and Ron. Adria and Charlie shared a glance before nodding. Adria let out a loud whistle, and her dragon, Nikio came flying out of the trees. Juliane gave her a look. 

"What? She begged me to come." Adria said before climbing onto the dragon with Charlie and grabbing the triplets. They flew off. Juliane looked up at the clear, night sky that now had the dark mark in the sky. Taking in a shuddering breath, she turned to Bill. 

"Whatever happens, I love you." She whispered before racing into the battle. Standing in the center of the field was her father. Juliane felt her hatred towards the man grow as she raced forwards to the man who ruined her life.
