Collette meanwhile hadn't known what to write and so had gone for a walk to think it out. She now wandered happily around the grounds chatting to herself.

"I'd be nervous, too," Faina said. "But I'm glad I can just watch; if I had been chosen, I'd have fainted."

"At least I didn't do that... though, I swear, I felt like I just might," Pyotr said.

"At least you know that the organisers will make sure that the Champions are safe," Faina said, walking next to Pyotr. They were nearly at the Owlery, where the owls lived.

"Yes, but I've a feeling that I can still get hurt... and, well, I really, really don't like that I have no idea what the first task is," Pyotr admitted.

Meanwhile, Wendy was waiting to meet up with Draven.

"It can't be anything that bad, surely?" Faina said.

Draven had arranged again to meet Wendy at a place where no-one else was around and where there wasn't the slightest risk of them being overheard.

"I don't know, and it's killing me," Pyotr said as they reached the owlery.

Wendy wore her hair bright, unnatural red today, and had tied it in low bunches, and her eyes were red-brown, for she'd found that truly red eyes were more creepy than cute, and Wendy was all about cute. She smiled when she saw Draven. "I did it," she said. "The first task is cr- aaazy!" she giggled in excitement. "Okay, so there are three dragons hidden on the grounds here... a Common Welsh Green, a Chinese Fireball, and a Swedish Short Snout. You thee champions will choose which one you go up against out of a hat or bag, so which one you get is up in the air. All three dragons are mothers with a bunch of eggs, and hidden amongst her eggs will be a golden one. Your first task is to somehow get past the dragon and retrieve the golden egg."

She bit back a squeal and whispered, "Isn't this exciting? I'd suggest you read up on all three, as I only know the basics of each species; Fireballs are very fast and very clever, Short Snouts are awkward on the ground but amazing in the air and have very little contact with humans of any sort, making them extra hostile, and the Welsh Green will be the easiest, relatively speaking."

"You don't have to tell me what to do," Draven said. "I already planned to read up on whatever you were going to tell me. Anyway, I've called in my favour so we're square. Don't tell anyone else about this; especially not the foreign students. You want a Hogwarts victory, don't you?"

[spirit_queen]

Wendy scowled. "I'm not stupid, Draven, I'm not going to tell anyone about this. Hogwarts victory aside, I'd be severely punished for what I did if any teachers hear even a whisper about it. Plus, I have a feeling that, if cornered, you'd be more likely to say that I did it of my own accord to make sure our school won than to own up that you asked me to."

"We Slytherins tend to guard our own interests, it's true," Draven replied with a shrug.
