The sun sets, dawn begins to break emitting warm orange light.

In the late afternoon that evening, the Golden Trio and Cassie were relaxing and enjoying the day in the Gryffindor Common Room.

"Hey, isn't tonight the last day of registration for the Triwizard Tournament?" Ron said.

"Correct." Harry replied. "Is your brother follow that too, Cassie?"

Cassie, who was focused on her reading book distracted her attention.

"Of course."

Ron seemed to open his mouth full of happiness. "I knew this would be sooo much fun!"

Hermione shook her head with a smile. "You've said it three times, Ron."

"You counted it?"

"Yes." Hermione shrugged. "Maybe I miscalculated it, you probably said that MORE than three times today."

Ron just replied to his friend's joke with a chuckle, so did Cassie and Harry.

"How about we go to the Great Hall? It might be fun to see our
upperclassmen registering." Cassie replied and the Golden Trio agreed.

"Sure! Come on."

The four of them now agree to go to the Great Hall where the Goblet of Fire blazes in the middle.

"Woahh...There are so many people here." said Ron.

But sure enough, all the students whatever be from Hogwarts students, Beauxbatons or Drumstrang students gathered there.

The four friends split up. The girls, Hermione and Cassie decided to sit down while the boys, Harry and Ron decided to take a closer look at the Goblet of Fire by standing up.

One by one students from various homes or schools put their parchment-wrapped names into the Goblet of Fire.

Not long after, a few male disciples' cheers caught everyone's attention.

"YEAHHH HAHA, ENTER THAT CEDRIC!!"

"Come on, Cedric. Enter!!"

Cheers all his friends. While Cedric laughed sweetly at their behavior.

Cedric also passes through a blue smoke designed by Dumbledore so that students under the age of 17 cannot enter to get their name into the Goblet of Fire.

Cedric made it through, his friends admired this versatile man.

Cedric turned to face the Goblet of Fire in front of him, then he entered the parchment of his name with determination.

"WOOHOO, YEAH CEDRIC!!"

Cedric grinned widely as he turned to look at Cassie and winked. Cassie who realized only smiled faintly shook her head.

When Cedric was out of the confines of the Goblet of Fire, Ron and Harry appeared to be walking towards Cassie and Hermione.

But as they walked, they seemed to stare at the gallant Goblet of Fire.

The 'always' amazed Ron spoke to his friend. "Eternal glory. That's good isn't it? Three years from now, we should be able to keep up."

Harry just chuckled shaking his head. "Better you than me."

"YAAA! HAHAA, LOOK AT THIS DUDEE!!"

The loud cheers once again caught the attention of Cassie and the Golden Trio. Harry and Ron who realized it was the Weasley twins, cheered clapping their hands.

Fred and George high-fived with their friends they passed. "Thank you, thank you!"

Fred then held up a small potion vial. "Guys, we did it! We concocted it this morning." he said proudly.

While, Hermione who heard it smiled crookedly. "That's not going to workk."

Fred and George glanced at each other then turned to Hermione. George sat under Hermione while Fred was next to Cassie.

"Is that soo?"

"Why so, Granger??" Flirt them.

Hermione shook her head. "You see this? This is the Age Line. Dumbledore himself made it." she said pointing to the blue smoke surrounding the Goblet of Fire.

Fred next to Cassie raised an eyebrow.

"Sooo??"

Cassie smiled crookedly added. "So, a genius like Dumbledore couldn't have been fooled by the stupid and pathetic ruse of the Aging Potion."

"However, that's why it's Brilliant!" Fred replied.

George added. "Because this is stupid and pathetic." He said proudly.

The twins are now standing on a chair while shaking the concoction they have concocted themselves.

"Ready, Fred?"

"Ready, George."

They put their arms around each other. "Spend."

"Spend."

After drinking it in unison, the iconic Fred and George jumped down the Age Line.

and Voila! Their potions so far had succeeded in bringing them across the Age Line.

"YEAHHH!!! HAHAHAHA!!!" Their laughter was happy as well as all the friends around them who clapped their hands.

The two of them simultaneously threw a piece of parchment bearing their names into the Goblet of Fire.

Quite successful, the twins do high-fived each other while cheering. "Yeahh, i know we good at this!!"

But not long after, an astonishing incident occurred. Namely, the blue flames from the Goblet of Fire swarmed around the twins and pushed them off the beaten path.

Quite surprising everyone there, Fred and George finally woke up after they bounced far enough from the Goblet of Fire.

When the two of them woke up their bodies, both of them felt their faces which apparently grew old bearded like Santa Claus!

"...You said!"

"You SAID!"

George then pushed his twin brother's body to the floor and attacked him.

"OH, YOU WANT TO FIGHT WITH ME?"

"I'll rip out your ears!!"

"Okay, now you make me laugh."

Everyone who gathered to see the twins fight cheered. "Fight! Fight! Fight!"

"YOU LOOK OLD, HAHA!!"

"BUT YOU LOOK OLDER, RIGHT??!?"

The sound of quick footsteps immediately caught their attention again. Turns out it was Viktor Krum from Drumstrang with two of his friends.

Krum entered his name into the Goblet of Fire without any difficulty. Before he was about to leave the Age Line, he saw Hermione sitting up and smiling at her.

Hermione returned the sweetest smile in her opinion when Krum had left. Meanwhile, Cassie who got the material for her prank, nudged Hermione's shoulder with a mischievous little smile.

"No, Cassie."

"What, Hermione? So what if you fall in love, you just can talk to me. After all, I'm your closest female friend."

Hermione with a thin smile hugged her best friend's shoulder. "I'd love to, Cassie! But I don't love him."

"You are stunned."

"Yes yes yes. Well, I'm stunned." Hermione answered resignedly. "Or.. maybe in love?"

Cassie laughed. "Unexpectedly. Never mind, I will always be there for my best friend."

Hermione smiled and nodded. "Thank You."

A few hours after the afternoon, finally the moon gave off its light, a sign that it was already night.

The Great Hall was getting busier because all the students were now gathered there. Not only students, the Professors were also there.

Cassie calmly sat beside Harry while Hermione was alone with Ron behind them.

"Now, the moment you've all been waiting for!" Dumbledore said. "Selection of fighters."

Dumbledore also extinguished all of the Great Hall's fire lamps with only his supernatural powers.

He then walked to feel the body of the dashing Goblet of Fire. After the fire turned red, a piece of parchment came out and Dumbledore opened it.

"The Warrior from Drumstrang is..Viktor Krum!"

Krum was proud of himself. Getting cheers from everyone, Krum then stood up and walked towards the place the Professor pointed out.

A second time, the Goblet of Fire hurled a parchment out. Dumbledore read it,

"The warrior from Beauxbatons is, Fleur Delacour!"

Fleur the blonde Veela girl smiled while her friends clapped their hands gracefully.

Fleur walked towards the place where the previously chosen chance stood.

Third, it's time for the warriors from Hogwarts. Everyone was really waiting for this.

Harry whispered in Cassie's ear. "Do you think Cedric will be elected?"

Cassie smiled crookedly. "Can be."

"Hogwarts Warriors..." Dumbledore seemed to open the parchment in his hand. "Cedric Diggory!!"

Cassie opened her mouth wide with a smile when her brother's name was called. She clapped and cheered just like everyone else.

"YEAH, CEDRIC!!!"

Cedric shook Dumbledore's hand and gathered with Fleur and Krum.

Dumbledore turned around and spread his hands to all the students.

"Now we have three warriors! However, there will only be one recorded in history."

"This triumph, this victory." Dumbledore turned and pointed in one direction. "The Triwizard Cup!"

Triwizard Cup. Cup of glory, trophy of victory, mighty trophy full of justice. It's bright blue in color, with glass-like dragon handles on two sides, and TRIWIZARD inscriptions around it.

Severus Snape realized something was wrong when he saw the Goblet of Fire glow red again. Realizing that, Dumbledore turned to look at the Goblet of Fire again.

Even though he was confused, the Professor still caught the parchment that came out. Then he read the name in it.

"Harry Potter..." Professor stoped in confused. "Harry Potter!!!"

Hearing the two words of the name, Cassie, Hermione and Ron were surprised that it was their own best friend.

But not only them...Harry was also surprised to be silent a thousand and one words.

"HARRY POTTER!!" Call Dumbledore one more time. "HARRY POTTER??!!!"

"Holy cricket, Harry..." Hermione whispered

"Harry, come on!" Cassie said pushing Harry's body to stand up. "Come on, Harry. It's okay! Come on!!!"

"HARRY POTTER!"

Harry who did not understand anything stood up leaving his friends. All pairs of eyes seemed to stare at Harry with a sneer.

Harry looked at Dumbledore expectantly as he passed him, but Dumbledore was also speechless not say anything to him.

Harry could only surrender to all this confusing incident. Listening to all the blasphemy after blasphemy from every student to him.

"He cheated!"

"He's not even 17 yet!!!"

"Potter the cheater!!!"

Harry could only hold back his anger, he walked past all the Professors including Professor Alastor Moody who looked at Harry differently than the other Professors.

Finally it led to the four selected students being allowed to gather in a room.

Harry stepped into the trophy-filled room. Harry really didn't understand what happened tonight.

"This is so wrong!"

"Everything is just a conspiracy theory!!!"

"SHUT UP! I can't think!!!"

The sound of thunderous footsteps and the grumbling of the men and woman made Harry, Cedric, Fleur and Krum turn towards the main entrance.

"I PROTEST THIS! I REALLY PROTEST!!!!!"

Suddenly Professor Dumbledore dashed towards Harry and pushed the poor boy's shoulder against the window glass.

"HARRY, DID YOU PUT YOUR NAME INTO THE GOBLET OF FIRE???"

Harry shook his head quickly. "No, sir!"

"DID YOU ASK OLDER STUDENTS TO ENTER YOUR NAME????"

"NO. NO, SIR!"

The big and tall Madam Maxine shouted. "He must be lying!"

"IMPOSSIBLE!" replied Professor Moody defending Harry. "The Goblet of Fire is a very powerful magical item. Only an incredibly powerful Confundus spell can trick it!"

"..Magic beyond fourth year students." Clearly at length.

Igor Karkaroff seemed to disapprove of approaching Moody. "You seem to be thinking too much, Moody."

"In the past my job was to think like a Dark Wizard. If you remembered that, Karkaroff." He replied with a sharp gaze.

"That doesn't help you, Moody!"

Mr. Bartemius Crouch then walked past everyone. Dumbledore spoke to the Minister "I leave this to you, Barty."

"The rules are absolute." Barty said with a heavy heart. "Goblet of Fire is a binding magic contract.."

Barty turned to Harry who was confused behind. "Mr. Potter had no choice... He, as of tonight is a Triwizard warrior.."

Everyone was looking at Harry with annoyed and sinister looks at them. But Harry could only bring his index fingers together helplessly.

Some time later, poor Harry Potter was finally able to return to his dormitory.

He seemed silent, sitting in a chair contemplating that day's events.

In his deep sinking thoughts and fantasies, Ron instead said as he walked past him.

"How did you do it? Nevermind. Forget it."

Harry looked up in confusion.

Meanwhile Ron returned to protest. "However, it might be better if you tell your best friend."

"Tell you what, huh?!" Harry asked.

Ron with a sharp gaze looking at Harry. "You know exactly what."

Harry rolled his eyes. "I didn't ask for this to happen, Ronald! Got it?!" Harry stood up from his chair. "You really  being stupid!"

Realizing that Harry and Ron were fighting, all the students entered their room but Harry and Ron's two best friends approached them.

"What happened? Don't fight, please.." Cassie said trying to break up the fight between Harry and Ron.

Ron just remained silent and did not respond while Harry spoke to him again. "Look, I really don't know what happened tonight. It just happened! You understand?!"

Ron shook his head as he walked up the stairs to his room. "Go on. Go to your Triwizard Tournament."

When Ron had left his three friends downstairs, Harry snorted in annoyance turning back at his two girl friends.

"Hermione, Cassie? Ron is really sucks." Harry then looked at the two of them. "Are you mad at me too?!"

Hermione furrowed her brows awkwardly as she walked slowly. "Uh..don't know, Harry." She then left Harry and Cassie downstairs.

Harry now asked his girlfriend. "Cassie, you can't be mad at me either!"

"I really don't." Cassie said confidently, she exhaled while holding Harry's shoulder. "I'm also surprised by today's events. Harry, be patient, wait for a miracle to help you, will you?"

Harry silent for a moment then nodded. "Thanks."

Even though today was really a million days of confusion and bad luck for Harry, Cassie still tried to think clearly about him.

Even though Harry might be subject to a thousand and one insults that day, he would still be waiting for the magic of the world to help him.
