Chapter 2

Audrey waited in the living room quietly as her mother read the day's daily prophet, Audrey didn't know why but that newspaper never got off very well with her, not after what it published about her great aunt and uncle though her mother didn't seem to bother much about it.

Audrey once again shifted her thoughts to the fireplace, after she had written back to Gabrielle with her reply, Gabrielle had considerately promised to come get her with her older sister Fleur, now Fleur did like Audrey very much but she was quite the snob, being part villa and obviously the most sort for girl in the entire school Fleur was snooty and turning of age didn't really help decrease her head size. But still Audrey didn't have any particular issues with her and besides Leon Bernard her second best friend would be there. It was a famous misconception that Beauxbatons was a girls' academy when it was actually a co-ed institute.

Audrey looked impatiently at her watch as both hands moved to ten and then the fireplace burst to life as Audrey got out of her seat excitedly but her excitement died when she saw who it actually was, stupid Jean had to come before she left.

"'ello—'ello" he said walking towards Rachel as he dusted the ashes of his robes, Audrey rolled her eyes as she saw him peck her mother's lips.

"Oh!—you're still here I see," he said a little coldly.

"Yes—you must remember it is my house too," she said sarcastically rolling her eyes at him as she notice her mother staring at her warningly as she snorted to herself cursing the man vehemently in her mind.

Suddenly voices could be heard from the fireplace,

"Zon't push!—no, no Gabby go back!" said the first person
"I cannot-" said the second person.

"Gabby!" shouted Audrey kneeling down next to the fireplace looking expectantly at her mother.

"Audrey!—zee fireplace seems to have stopped," said Fleur in her broken English.

"Whoops!" muttered Jean as he whipped his wand out and muttered something.

"I blocked it by mistake," he said opening the floo network as Gabrielle and Fleur toppled onto Audrey, they got up quickly.

Gabrielle got up and hugged Audrey as tightly as possible, she let go and then greeted Rachel with a smile while Fleur talked to Jean.

"Good holiday then?" asked Rachel.

"Oui, America was good fun, they have these roller coaster rides—they're big," said Gabrielle animatedly as her face shone with excitement.

"I'm glad to hear it," smiled Rachel as Gabrielle nodded.

"Alright then I'll see you next week," sighed Rachel as Audrey shook her head, she knew the next bit by heart.

"Be careful, don't talk to strangers, don't buy things you're not supposed to, don't roam around in robes, don't give away your address and Audrey please I beg you—don't create trouble, the last thing I want is to go back to the French ministry and explain some godforsaken spell no one has even imagined," finished her mother.

"Yes mum—I love you too," muttered Audrey hugging Rachel loosely and then walking towards the fireplace as Fleur waited for her sister and Audrey, but before Audrey left she turned to look at Jean who was standing next to Rachel an arm around her waist like she was his wife or something.

"I almost forgot-" said Audrey dashing into the kitchen and coming out with a gift wrapped box which she handed to Jean.

"What's this?" he asked a little surprised but sceptically all the more.

"Tiramisu—a whole box of it—so next time you won't eat mine," she smirked as Jean was left speechless while Gabrielle giggled inaudibly.

"Umm...thanks," muttered Jean oddly as Audrey stepped into the fireplace after Gabrielle disappeared and Fleur waited by it.

"Sure, everyone deserves a birthday present—even you," smiled Audrey and before Rachel could react Audrey winked at her and was gone with the swirling of green flames and ash, Fleur bid them goodbye and then disappeared back home.

Once every one was safely deposited Mr. Delacour brought out a leather bound book and asked everyone to gather around it and hold it as tightly as possible everyone did as they were told. Audrey realized the minute Mr. Delacour asked them to touch the book that it was actually a portkey, she had never really actually traveled by portkey but she certainly had read about them, so the feeling of a hook on her navel was an expected one but once they had manifested at the destination and let go of the portkey, the landing for Audrey and Gabrielle was a rather rough one as they both fell on their backs but they were saved from any grave injuries by the soft grass. Fleur helped the girls up and they followed Mr. Delacour towards their accommodations.

The campsite was actually a huge forest with lots of cleared land in the middle, the land was owned by a muggle family who lived in a house near the campsite and therefore the ministry had required that everyone who would be using the campsite would wear appropriate muggle attire. On entering the campsite Audrey noticed magic filling the air, but nothing very striking was seen except that the whole site was actually filled with wizards and witches mostly from England or Russia.

The only odd thing there was that a yard away in the middle of nowhere stood a stadium obviously built by magic, because it was clearly invisible to the muggle caretaker's eyes or else he would have already been horribly shocked to see such a quick development on his land.

Mr. Delacour directed the girls into the tent, the tent from the outside was small but the interiors were very contrasting, it comprised of three rooms two bathrooms and a massive hall, it was no surprise that most of the tents here were 'well-equipped' but made to look quite ordinary.

The two girls entered their room where Fleur had already begun to unpack on her bed, while Gabrielle and Audrey decided upon who would get the lower bunk, obviously not in for an argument Audrey gave in.

"Do you want to go and say 'ello zou Leon?" asked Gabrielle excitedly, Audrey nodded and they set out to find the Bernard's tent.

"Incredible isn't it?—all this?" asked Audrey as they looked around to find tent no. 159 which Leon specifically told them he'd be staying in, Gabrielle nodded as they reached tent number 148.

A long walk later they did find Leon's tent and they did manage to bring their blond haired blue eyed friend out for a walk around, but soon they had to return back to their tents for lunch, there was no match that particular Monday but then the first match of the season was what Audrey was excited about Ireland vs. Whales and you could bet Audrey was with the Irish obviously having the world's biggest crush on Troy McCarthy the Irish chaser whose signed picture was on her wall as he flew over her bed every now and then.

A week had passed and almost all the matches had been no less like battles between two teams, but the two final winners would be competing today and Audrey, Leon and Gabrielle were excited about the match Gabrielle and Leon on the Bulgarian team's side while Audrey religiously backed the Irish.

"What is so special about the stupid Irish anyways?" asked Leon as the Delacours, Bernards and Audrey who was in front climbed their way towards the top box where they were to be seated.

"Well—what's so special about stupid Krum anyways, he's bald and he can't even talk!" commented Audrey knowing very well her friends would not take a word against the Bulgarian hero Victor Krum.

"Take that back!" they spat horrified at Audrey who smirked victoriously, at least Troy had hair, such soft, smooth, delicate sandy blond hair.

Audrey looked around smiling as the line halted, she wondered about the obstruction in front of them that had stopped the line to the top box. Only two families could sit in the top box and tickets were very hard to come by obviously because the seats were possibly the best ones after the VIP box were the ministers sat.

"How much more dad?" said the red head boy in front of Audrey, the father who Audrey noticed was far up gave him a muffled reply as the red head looked back at his black haired friend, well at least Audrey thought he was his friend along with the bushy brown haired girl because they were the only odd pair out of the whole family of reds. Even though the reply from above wasn't heard there was a reply from below, someone Audrey had never seen before and hoped would never again.

"Let's say this Weasley, if it rains you'll be the first to know," said the man smirking evilly as his family which was quite evident from their face structure and hair color stood by smirking, though apart from the son and father the mother seemed to be very displeased like someone had just stuffed her nose with dung. Though she too had similar hair and bone structure made the husband and wife look more like brother and sister.

"Creepy," thought Audrey.

"Father has been invited to sit in the ministers box by the minister himself—I see your sitting with the Frenchies!" said the blond son looking at the rest like they were stupid enough to not understand what he was saying, Audrey didn't like him any bit.

"Don't brag Draco!—there is no need with these people," said the father pushing his walking stick lightly into the boys stomach.

The black haired boy lost patience and pulled the red head or Weasley was it away from the railing they were leaning on to look below but the father struck his stick out to grab hold of the boy's jacket sleeve.

"Do enjoy-while you can," smirked the blond father as he let go of the boy who glared at them and then started to walk ahead.

"Audrey—come on!" whined Leon from behind as Gabrielle giggled while the parents over took Audrey laughing as their children lagged behind even Fleur who thought she was all grown up joined the adults in the fun.

"I'm going to go get something to drink," said Audrey walking back down as Leon and Gabrielle nodded and walked up to their seats.

Audrey walked down to the canteen and then dashed up with her cup of 'Nepa' something that was similar to muggle Pepsi, thank God some lucky Wizard has realized the muggle drink making profit and decided to try it on the wizarding population. Audrey only hoped that the drink wasn't named after someone; really imagine the torture if the person was named 'Nepa'

Audrey was climbing up to the top box when she noticed the blond family who were sitting next to the British minister of magic, but the son was nowhere to be seen as Audrey climbed up she dashed into someone, she fell and so did her 'Nepa' staining her green t-shirt and black jacket.

"Shit—I'm terribly sorry!" she swore to herself and looked up and apologized to the person she had crashed into. It was a man who was the victim but truthfully he seemed to be standing, the boy next to him was the same blond who she recognized from earlier. The man glared at Audrey sternly as if she had committed a heinous crime making Audrey feel severely guilty even though she was the one wearing a t-shirt with a stain. The man didn't seem to say much though he kept staring at Audrey as if trying to recall her from his god gifted memory, the man was quite well clad and so was the boy but he seemed to have absolutely no manners as Audrey realized how spoilt he was.

"Imbecile—really watch where you're going," he said so rudely that Audrey looked at him dumbfounded, why was he speaking to her in the first place, but she decided to shake it off, it wasn't polite for a girl to pick fights in public at least that was what they taught them in their grooming class in their first year, she was sure Hogwarts didn't have one, because the boy was obviously English and he seemed to be very snooty and besides her mother had warned to stay clear of trouble.

"You alright Professor Snape?—stupid French lot—I've had it with them today—father must talk to the minister to ban them next year—I mean they don't even understand what we're saying" said the blond, or Draco was it.

"Please walk ahead Mr. Malfoy," said the man next to him in a rather bored fashion but Audrey wouldn't give in so easily.

"Sir, who do you think you are-I haven't done anything grave to harm him and besides I suppose this gentleman can talk for himself, he certainly does not need your help and besides I would appreciate it if you would kindly stop calling me an imbecile because I find the way you speak is rather mannerless, it is certainly not a way to treat a lady," finished Audrey angrily as Draco Malfoy tried to recollect any words that came to him but he failed miserably.

"Good evening," she said turning heel and marching upstairs to her seat as Malfoy's eyes followed her carefully.

"I suppose she's not completely French," finished Malfoy as Snape nodded and walked towards the ministers box followed by the Malfoy boy.

Audrey was now very mad as she sat down in the empty seat next to Leon, who looked at her while Fleur noticed the stain on her t-shirt and offered to clean it which heightened Audrey's mood by a very tiny minuscule. She noticed that she was sitting on the side the messy black haired boy who was also an Irish supporter noticed Audrey from his black and green hat.

The match started with the Irish team flying from over the top box as Troy did a back flip and winked at the people in the top box while Audrey jumped in her seat excitedly shouting his name and slogans that made Leon and Gabrielle giggle but when the Bulgarian team flew in they were cheering like wild fans as well. Seeing the scarcity of Irish supporters in the treacherous box Audrey decided to make a cheering squad and so she decided to ask the black haired boy if he wanted to cheer with her along with the two red head twins who seemed to have been looking at her oddly throughout the match.

"Hey!" she said looking at the black head.

"Hey," he replied back a little surprised to be spoken to by her.

"I see you support the Irish," she smiled looking at his hat.

"I wonder what gave me away," he laughed as she smiled too.

"Audrey Adams," she said putting her hand forward as the boy shook it.

"Harry," he said shaking her hand.

"Harry-?" she asked pushing him.

"Just Harry," he replied.

"Well— Harry do you want to cheer for the Irish with me and what about you guys?" she asked and looked over to Harry's other side as the twins looked at her smiling as if getting a load of their backs.

"Fred-George Weasley," they chorused pointing out who was who.

The match went on and with Audrey's new cheering squad she didn't feel left out as they happily did a little jig as Ireland won even though Krum got the snitch.

"Excuse me are you French—you seem different from the others and weirdly familiar are you from Hogwarts?" asked the bushy haired girl and the red head girl and boy as the top box people started to mingle after Mr. Delacour found out that Mr. Weasley in fact worked at the same position in the London branch of the ministry.

"I'm sorry, I'm Hermione Granger, this is Ginny Weasley and Ronald her brother," smiled Hermione.

"Well—I am French by nationality thought I was born in England lived here for four year," smiled Audrey.

"Well—you sure gave Malfoy an earful," smiled Ginny.

"That blond?" asked Audrey as the rest nodded.

"You heard that?" she asked a little embarrassed.

"Yes, and I really hoped you had stained Snape's clothes though," laughed Ron as Harry nodded joining the conversation.

"He's your teacher?" asked Audrey remembering that Malfoy had called Snape, professor.

"Yes—the worse we've got so far," said Harry

"What's he teach?" asked Leon.

"Potions," chorused the Hogwarts group.

"Well I hate our charms professor I guess every school has one of these hated teachers," she joked as the rest laughed.

"I thought Beauxbatons was a girls school," said Ginny as Audrey and Leon shook their heads.

"Famous misconception—an example right in front of you," smiled Leon winking at Ginny who blushed slightly.

"Oi! Come on time to go," shouted Fleur calling the others as the parents had finished their conversation and were waiting to leave.

"Well—it was nice meeting you," smiled Audrey as Fred and George did their victory dance again making Audrey laugh.

"You too," nodded Harry.

"Hey Potter! We won!" shouted Fred and George gleefully again revealing Harry's hidden identity.

"Harry Potter! You're Harry Potter," asked Audrey a little excited making Harry wonder if she wanted his autograph or something as he back away a little and nodded.

"Have you heard of Remus Lupin, he talks an awful lot about you," finished Audrey smiling.

"Professor Lupin, yes—he taught us last year," finished Harry remembering Remus very clearly.

"He's my godfather," finished Audrey smiling as Harry looked at her disbelievingly that meant Audrey's parents must have known Sirius too.

"Does your dad know him?" asked Harry sceptically.

"No, my mum actually she was at Hogwarts with him they were really good friends—and umm... I really don't know who my father was except that he lives in England and went to Hogwarts with my mum and Remus," finished Audrey as she was now standing there alone and talking to Harry as her friends waited on the side for her while their parents and Fleur had already left complaining about how tired they were.

"I'll tell Remus I met you—he'll be pleased," smiled Audrey and then walked up to her friends while Harry dashed to get back with his own group.

"Finally," muttered Leon as he was escorting the girls to their tent.

"What he knew my godfather," Audrey smiled as she, Gabrielle and Leon walked towards their tent which was quite a walk away.

"How is it that everyone knows someone you know?" asked Leon shaking his head in annoyance.

"I cannot help—my fame Leo," smirked Audrey and then she along with her friends laughed as they walked out of the stadium gate.

The three of them noticed a group staring them down, their eyes wandered over to the other side as they stopped in their tracks.

"Isn't he the one who you were talking about?" asked Leon ready for a fight, admittedly he had a good build for a fourteen year old.

"Yes—and come on we don't need to pick fights," said Gabrielle pulling her hot headed friends ahead as they could hear a few words the Malfoy boy was sneering while he looked at them.

"Yes—these people father—quite stupid—split her drink—klutz—must be bad blood—that one especially the black haired—" said Malfoy distastefully as his mother glared at the three of them, though none of them really looked that way towards Gabrielle just Leon and Audrey.

"Must be because she's half villa—very evident," thought Audrey to herself feeling like scum, just the way they would want her to feel.

The three walked ahead and waited by the corner for Fleur to come back and receive them as she had promised and therefore caught in on the other groups conversation while Leon and Gabrielle also noticed the Snape bloke staring at Audrey in a peculiar way, they thought he was a snarky perv, they did not appreciate him any bit, but Audrey on the other hand stared back at him as if trying to defying him in some funny way.

"Stay Severus-" said the older Malfoy jovially as his wife added though her expression still the same that Audrey had noticed before,

"Yes, you must come home for a night cap,"

"No— I must be returning to the castle I have some very important work waiting—but I must thank you for your hospitality Lucius"

"Hey—Bernard you can go—thanks anyways," said Fleur sternly as Leon bid them goodbye and went towards his tent while Gabrielle, Fleur and Audrey followed Snape towards the exit where their tent was situated.

"It is so late—we mustn't be out 'ere" said Fleur a little scared as the night was scarily quiet.

"Sorry, it's my fault," said Audrey as they took a left turn and lost Snape at the turn as he walked straight towards the exit.

"Don't blame yourself Audrey," smiled Fleur pleasantly as they reached tent no. 125 they had to go ten tents ahead.

Severus was so glad he had the chance to leave early without Malfoy forcing him to his manor for a night cap, he had an odd feeling that night after he had seen that girl who had spilled the drink on herself and it was as if he knew her but the truth was he had never seen her prior to tonight. It was odd he had never felt like this before, he had even tried to read her mind to find out who she was but had failed she seemed to have some sort of force field built around her, it was obvious that it wasn't her own magic but possibly someone like a parent or a guardian had performed it. Severus had no idea what it was but it definitely protected her very well and he knew it to be old possibly ancient something like Dumbledore would know, he thought of discussing this with him, but then thought against it knowing very well that talking about something so trivial would not only be stupid and pathetic but even worth a laugh. Imagine if Dumbledore found out that he cared to know who that girl was because his intuition begged him to, Severus would become a laughing stalk of the headmaster and those blasted portraits.

Never the less, he was happy to be going home, to Hogwarts to finally get some peaceful sleep, but before Severus could leave he heard cries, not someone wailing but chants like war cries before a terrible savage attack. He looked around to see if the Irish were drunk and had finally decided to burn down the Bulgarian tents but no, it wasn't the Irish. Severus knew who they were and he certainly did not want to be spotted by them.

Death eaters were walking through the forest with burning torches and lit wands as the lifeless bodies of the campsites muggle caretaker and his family hung before them. A surreal picture of death, of men in mask marching their way into the folds of the innocent and for the time-being ignorant.

Severus decided to run for it, to not turn back when he had already escaped, but something stopped him, something made him go back, the French girl. Oh! Yes it was that French girl who had caught his eye, what if her magic didn't work on death eaters what if she was captured and tortured. Why did Severus care, he didn't know why, but instinct made him go back, it made him go back to make sure she was okay...because for some reason, he felt like he owed her at least that much.
