The first exam

Today was the day, the first exam was due. Harry had studied hard the last few days. Severus and Sirius had helped him wherever they could. Even if Karkaroff had complained to the minister. the man firmly believed that it was against the rules to train a champion. That was total nonsense, of course, and Crouch had said that clearly to the man's face.
then the druid demanded that the monster books be banned. The reason he gave was that the Beast had bitten his staff and stole his cap. When Severus asked him why Beast had done that, Karkaroff just swore. but he was not prepared to provide any further information.
What Harry liked best, however, was that everyone was now trying to tame their monster books. Everywhere you saw students playing with their books. Some even threw balls. the guest students even ordered some extra. Harry never expected to set a new trend. And that when it was just normal school books. But it shouldn't bother him. at least that brought fun and a good mood.

In contrast to today's event. Well, it was great fun for a lot of wizards. But Harry just wished he was very far away.
"Don't worry, honey, you'll do it."
"Thanks Fleur, but I'm still nervous."
“We all are. Believe me, none of us are crazy enough to look forward to what follows, ”Cedric reassured him.
When Harry looked at his fellow combatants, he only looked at worried faces.
"Are you wondering if it's all worth it?"
“For the rights of magical beings? Definitely ”, Victor confirmed his decision.
The rest of them nodded.
Then the minister came and explained the rules to them.

“Each of you reaches into this sack and takes out a dragon figure. Depending on which one it is, you will compete against the original outside. The aim is to get a golden egg from the nest of the respective animal. don't worry, the dragons are tied up. So nothing can happen. "
"Nothing can happen to the audience, you mean." Specified, Michael.
“And then also a golden egg. this not only awakens the breeding instinct of the animals but also their preference for gold. Seems like they really wanted to kill us. ”Melina remembered.
The minister cleared his throat.
“Don't worry too much. we will take care that nothing happens. We also have an excellent nurse. "
"She's only been cursing since the tournament started." Harry interjected helpfully.
Named nurse was of course Poppy. and she was laughing in the background at Harry's remark.
The minister cleared his throat.
“Oh, one more thing. Those of you who are still waiting to be deployed can of course not hear what is happening outside. we don't want you to copy something. "
The participants rolled their eyes. But they didn't say anything.
So they all reached into the bag. And how could it be otherwise? Harry promptly pulled the most dangerous of them all.
"Does anyone want to trade their luck with mine?" He asked sarcastically. The rest of the champions looked at him sympathetically.

And off we went. First it was Victor's turn.
From the people outside one could only hear loud roaring. no more noise penetrated her tent.
Fleur came second, then Cedric came. When it was finished, the round started again.
Harry watched as the other participants went out healthy and came back in partially battered. but luckily no one was seriously injured.

“NOW THE LAST CHAMPION. HARRY POTTER! BOY-WHO-LIVES AND SAVIOR OF THE MAGIC WORLD! "

Harry groaned.
"My name alone would have been enough," he grumbled.
when he stepped outside he was standing in the middle of an arena. The whole thing reminded the boy very much of the gladiator fights in Rome. He wondered who made the Caesar. Probably the old man himself.
the young Gryffindor ignored the announcements and the enthusiastic calls, he looked around at the female dragon. There she was. A Hungarian horntail. Actually a beautiful animal if it didn't grill it right away.
When Harry took a step towards the nest, the dragon lady rose, spread her wings and shot a jet of fire at him.
Avoiding that was no problem. stupidly Mama Dragon didn't think of staying on her nest. She got up completely now and followed Harry.
,Wait a moment!'
"Hey, shouldn't the good lady be chained?" Questioning and slightly angry, he looked at the kite trainers.
Among them was Charly Weasley, who had brought Norbert years ago.
"Um, I don't know how that could happen. She must have broken free. I'm sorry."
"Yeah, sure," the boy grumbled. “Why is that still surprising to me? it is logical that this only happens to me. Or did the others experience such a surprise too? ”He wanted to know more.
The kite trainers all shook their heads. each of them looked like they were already preparing an eulogy for Harry.
Harry didn’t get any further with his thoughts. The dragon lady was after him and shot one fireball after the other at him.
Cursing wildly, Harry set out to evade and fend off.
His words could be heard all over the arena.
