Kevin made his way down the field, having told Sarah he'd meet her there. He was nervous at what was gonna happen. The last Tri-Wizard Tournament was part of the history he had covered in the States, and also everything that happened, including the dragons. He wanted to see Mai; if he was nervous, he could only imagine what must be going through her mind, as well as Rei's. Kevin planned to sit next to Rei with Sarah and support Mai, but first as a 7th year Ravenclaw, he should at leat greet their Champion before the Task. Seeing her, he started walking faster.
"Mai! Hey, how are you feeling?" he asked.

Damon listened intently as the headmistress thanked everyone for coming to support their house champions. He wore an annoyed smirk as his eyes searched for each of the champions. He spotted Colleen, Mai, and Josi, but not Morana. Which made him think about her chances of winning, I’m sure she’ll do well. Damon thought to himself, while setting his sapphire eyes in search of her. His dark eyes searched through the wide expanse of the courtyard searching for any sign of the Slytherin champion, his eyes fell on a few faces he recognized, but no Morana. Hmmm… I wonder if she’s even here… Damon frowned, while processing his thought – deciding it was rubbish, she’d never miss the first task. His eyes landed on a girl in a jean jacket and faded dark blue jeans, with her hair pulled into French braids. He was about to pass over her when he caught a glimpse of her face as she turned to salute the headmistress. He chuckled to himself, and gently wiped his mouth with his right hand. Damon began pushing his way through the crowed room toward Morana, glaring at the students who were in his way.
Damon quickly fell in beside her. He was wearing a black leather trenchcoat, a white silk button down shirt, black slacks, his mirrored sunglasses, and his chrome heeled boots. He reached up and slowly removed his sunglasses, then swiveled his head in her direction, winked at her playfully, and flashed a bright smile. [shadow=red,left,300]“Hello, Morana. Nervous?” [/shadow]Damon asked seriously, inclining his right eyebrow.

Amber looked around boredly. She wondered when the tournament was going to start. She looked at Lydia and asked, " So are you excited about the tournament? ".

Lydia turned back to Jacklyn when she heard her and smiled. "Hey! I-" she started, but didn't finish because Jacklyn bounded off towards Josi. Oh well, she thought and smirked. "Good Luck Josi!!" she yelled. Lydia tried to catch Josi's eye, and at one point Josi waved, so Lydia she waved back and smiled. Lydia heard the young Gryffindor talking to her again. Amber. Nice to meet you, Lydia. "Nice to meet you too," she said.
Lydia noticed that DLo kept looking up at the sky, "What are you looking at?" she asked him and smirked. But, before DLo could answer, Amber was talking to her again. So are you excited about the tournament? "Yeah, definitely. I'm a little nervous for Josi, she seems a little scared." Lydia informed Amber as she glanced over at Josi.
She finally turned back to DLo. "Sorry... too many people I know..." she told him, "So, what were you looking at, and after you tell me that... what do you say about sitting down?" she asked and added a slight smile.

Mai looked at Jacklyns concerned face and was about to reply to her unfinished question, which she did not know what it was, she heard Kevin and saw him walk up. She nodded to him, "Yeah, I'm fine. Just a bit nervous, is all." She smiled, "I had been a bit sick before, but seeing a couple of supporters is making me feel steady." She said, looking over his shoulder to see if either Sarah or Rei were coming.
She allowed her hand to stay on her stomach, it seemed to help comfort it a bit. She then thought of Jacklyn, "What was it you were saying, Jacklyn?"

Sarah raced towards the gathering of people. The first task was about to start and she was running late, wonderful. Basically running into the group of students, she searched the crowds for Kevin. There were going to meet here, she should have just come with him, it was going to be a nightmare trying to find him in this.
Out of the corner of her eye she saw Mai and started to head towards the Ravenclaw champ. When she got closer she realized that Kevin had beat her here and was already with Mai. "Hey guys." Sarah walked up to the little group that was surrounding Mai. Wrapping an arm around Mai's shoulders and giving her a reassuring squeeze, "How are you doing Mai?" She could only imagine how nervous the Head Girl had to be. Sarah was nervous and she wasn't even going to be competing.
Looking towards Kevin, she let go of Mai's shoulders and wrapped her now free arm around his waist. Looking up to his face, she felt a smile break over her own. Giving her attention back to the Ravenclaw Champion, Sarah gave Mai a concerned look. "You will do great. Don't even worry!"

Mai had returned the quick squeeze from Sarah and thanks her, smiled as she went to her boyfriend, it distracted her from her current spot in life. Coming back to reality, she tried to smile as her distortedness was still there, but more in the back of her mind seeing she had good friends around her. She just wish she knew where Rei was. She had yet to see him that day.
She looked at the group forming around her, "So where will you guys be sitting, right infront to distract me?" she mused, using her smilets to distract her mind. "When does this thing get started anyway?"

Kevin laughed. "Actually we were gonna find Rei and sit with him, I mean the three of us make up entourage, doesn't it? Beside we wouldn't abandon you or leave you to fend for yourself. We here for ya?" he said, wrapping his arms around her in a supportive hug. Breaking off, he returned to Sarah.

Dove had wandered down to the courtyard for the QWT First Task. She saw Mai, and hurried over to her. "Hey, Mai! Are you nervous? I know I would be." Dove then saw Kevin leaving, headed to go stand with Sarah. Dove waved energetically, and mouthed for them to save her a place, please. Then she turned back to Mai.
"I just want to let you know, I don't think I could be Ravenclaw Keeper by myself. Don't let me down, alright?" She gave Mai a quick hug, and smiled at her.

Mai returned Kevins' hug of encouragement, it felt good to be suported. Then Dove come over, and Mai noted her appearence "Yeah, well you know." she smiled, trying to look energetic as Dove was at the moment, but failed. She then replied to Dove's other comment, not feeling so good once again, "Well, yeah . . . uh, thanks." It being the not so most comforting one in the world, it was still kind. She smiled and held her stomach in nervousness once more.
She looked over at Jacklyn, hoping she hadn't felt left out with all the other Ravenclaws coming over to talk to her and cheer her on.

Morana was lost in her thoughts as she observed classmates swarm toward the Courtyard, as well as the arrival of the last two champions. She didn't expect anyone to take notice of her (partially because of her hairstyle, which was usually worn down), but even then, she got a few well wishes directed at her from some random people. None of whom were from her house. Giving them a nod of thanks, Morana couldn't help but think that she didn't deserve to be there. 'Everyone expected Damon to win... Heck, even I did. He's the perfect candidate... What quality do I have that he does not?
'Well, besides the obvious...' she added, mentally grinning. 'Then, again, what can I expect? The Goblet of Fire never makes mistakes, and even if my fellow Slytherins don't support me or give a d**n, I'll survive. I always have... It's only natural to hate what one doesn't understand...'She was brought out of her thoughts when the same raven-haired devil mentioned appeared beside her, saying "Hello, Morana. Nervous?" Raising an eyebrow back at him, Morana gave him a stern, scandalized look, saying "Are you kidding? Who exactly do you take me for?" Pausing for effect, she continued "I'm absolutely terrified." Morana couldn't keep the facade up as she broke into a toothy smile, her eyes twinkling in jest and playfulness. "No really, I am. The suspense is killing me." Within a quick moment, Morana felt compelled to asked Damon to the Yule Ball (for which she had yet to find a date to), but stopped herself just in time. 'What am I thinking ? He probably already asked someone...'Looking slightly flustered, Morana quickly covered it up, putting on a calm face and a smirk while adding less-enthusiastically "Is the fear showing?" |

Sarah nodded her head enthusiastically when Kevin spoke about them sitting with Rei. "Oh you are going to be able to hear us shouting the whole time. We will totally be the loudest group here." She smiled at Mai, secretly glad that she had gotten back-up and wasn't about to jump into the first task.
Sarah gave Mai another encouraging squeeze, she could see how nervous Mai was becoming. "I'm sure Rei will be here soon and you will do awesome. There is so nothing for you to worry about. Just take a few deep breaths right now." She smiled at the older girl.

Azlen threw her alarm clock against the floor in a desperate attempt to make the ringing stop. Finally with one final 'ding' it stopped. She rolled out of bed and headed to the shower. After finally choosing her outfit (jeans, boots, and her old sweatshirt with 'Canaby Dance Studio' written across the front), she headed outside to the first task.
She shivered slightly in the cold Decenber air and looked around for a famililar face. She finally spotted Ian talking with a girl, whose name (if she remembered correctly) was Lydia. She gave Ian a quick hug and kiss on the cheek and waved hello to Lydia. "So, any idea what the task will be?"

Mai closed her eyes, she had a moment of feeling like she wanted to be far away from where she was. Now she took a deep breath in and when she exhaled, it was as if that feeling had been blown away. Her cowardly feeling towards the upcoming task seemed to diminish and she smiled, "Well that sure made me feel a bit better." she laughed a bit, "I really want to get this things going though." she said, waiting for something to happen. The suspense was killing her.

Ian smiled warmly as Azlen rushed up and gave him a quick kiss, and replied, "Well, I don't know much about the history of this place, but I've been told that this was held here before, and somebody died. I mean, what happens if that........" Ian trailed off as he realized he was probabley freaking out for nothing, but he just didnt want anybody, especially the Champions who would be in the most danger, to get hurt. Ooc: Josi! Come over here!

Jacklyn waved it away and said, "I'll go now. Seems like you need some Ravenclaw supporting." She smiled and hugged Mai one last time before walking towards the Gryffindor crowd. "Josi!" she called out.
She rushed towards her and grinned at her. "You feeling okay?" asked Jacklyn.

OOC I have already pm the headmistress for the Slytherin judge position. I hope to make it!
Narcissa was dressed in green robes to show support to her house. She was looking for the headmistress among the croud of students, when she spotted Morana, the slytherin champion.
"Good luck Morana! I hope you do well in the first task." she said and in her face could be seen a small smile.
"Have you seen the headmistress? I am looking for her but I can not seem to find her. I had some last minute questions to ask." she said while her eyes scaned the croud.[/font]

Mai smiled, but made a small growling noise out of frustration with herself, "You're proberly right . . . It would not have chosen me if it had not seen me fit." Mai gave a small laugh, "I have a feeling that if you were in my position, Sarah, that you wold be not so nervous." she mused lightly. Jacklyn hugged her and bid farewell, but Mai had wish she had stayed. It seemed like she had something important to say. Mai decided that she would ask her about it later.

"What are you looking at?"
DLo was about to answer when someone started talking to her again.
When they were done she asked again.
"I don't even know," Which was strange. Love was an elite warrior. He was expected to always know, "Yeah, let's go sit down."
He placed his right hand behind her, gently in the small of her back, leading her toward a seat.

Amber sat down in a seat and looked down at all of the champions. It looked like that some were nervous and some were terrified. She heard that somebody died here. What was his name again? She remembered the headmistress talking about him when the champions were announced. Ah yes, it was Cedric.
She sighed and hoped that none of the champions would get hurt. At least they were taking some precautions.

Surprised, Damon flinched, and withdrew slightly with a frown plastered to his soft lips from the stern, scandalized look that appeared on her face and the words that came afterward when she had answered his question. Damon didn’t quite expect the response he had gotten from her and the surprise etched into his features would have been quite amusing to behold. [shadow=red,left,300]“Umm…”[/shadow] Damon stammered, not quite sure how to respond, but he was saved when she grinned, admitting her fear. Damon wiped his forehead with the back of his hand in mock relief - then smirked playfully, she had saved him from looking foolish, perhaps if only by a small margin. With that trademark playful smirk still cemented on his face, and a devilish look in his dark sapphire eyes -Damon listened intently as she confided in him with her feelings. He noticed a sudden flustered look appear on her face - that lingered for a moment, he thought it was perhaps his smirk that caused it, so he quickly changed his expression to a warm reassuring smile. However, when she smirked at him, he was a bit confused, but he kept his inviting smile firmly in place nonetheless, and his inviting sapphire gaze was firmly locked on her pale blue eyes as he continued to listen to her. Damon thought hard about how to respond to her last question, he wanted to reassure her that she was indeed the best choice for the QWT, and boost her confidence if he was able to. He ran his fingers through his silky raven black hair – causing it to spill about his head unevenly in his usual mussed style, he then took a deep breath and swallowed before he replied in a reassuring tone. [shadow=red,left,300]“Morana, you were, and are the best candidate for the QWT. I have complete faith in your ability, and so should you, you’re a very talented witch. If anyone should be nervous, or frightened, it should be your competition.”[/shadow] Damon shot a quick glance over at the other QWT champions and waved his hand in their direction, before returning his gentle gaze to Morana. [shadow=red,left,300]“Know this, I will stand firmly beside you in this contest, you have my support - my champion.”[/shadow] Damon fixed his brightest smile on his face while his sincere words rolled off his tongue. |

*Claire woke up miraculously early the morning of the task. She had time to choose a blue outfit to show her Ravenclaw spirit, fix her hair, and put on makeup. She grabbed a purse and raced down to the Courtyard, hoping to make it in time to wish Mai luck. Of course she knew that Mai was going to do great, otherwise the Goblet wouldn't have chosen her. She reached the courtyard and smiled as she found the group of Ravenclaw's showing their support for Mai.*
Hey girl, how're you feeling?
*She smiled as she made her way to the group, standing next to Dove. Looking around, she smiled at everybody else.*
Goodmorning!
*She said to everybody and then turned her attention back to Mai.*
You're goign to do great, I know it!
*She noticed Mai clutching her stomach, but she assumed that it was nerves.*
You'll be ok, we're cheering for you!

Mai, seeing all the support she was getting, was starting to get more excited then nervous. It was like all the fear was leaving her because all of these people were confident for her. She smiled, "Thanks Claire, I really appreciate it." She finally allowed her hand to leave her stomach, nerves gone. Instead she held her hands behind her back. She smiled at her friends, "So what type of melody are you going to sing my name to when I win today?" She asked, making a little joke.

"Some beautiful I hope." He said with a smile as he neared her. He smiled at Mai then stroked her cheek lovingly as he got to her. He knew she was nervous and he felt bad for being late but he had things to attend to in the school. He drew her hand to his lips and kissed it softly "I am sure you will win today." He said with a smile in his eyes.
He looked at the others around him then back to Mai "Nervous?" He ask gently talking as if they where alone together in a calming voice. He kissed her lips softly to encourage her.

Mai's heart had skipped a beat when she saw Rei coming to her. She had been waiting for him, and was very happy when she noted his arrival. She smiled about his comment and blushed. She whispered a 'thank you' to him as he kissed her hand and encouraged her.
He came in close, letting it be just him and her in their own world. He asked is she was nervous, "I am fine now that you are here." she smiled and kissed his lips and said softly, "You give me all the confidence in the world." she laughed lightly.

"I will always be here for you." He said with a smile and a kiss to her neck to make her shiver as before "I want you to just focus on the task and remember we are all here for you." He kissed her hand again kissing the ring "And so are those wedding bells."
He smiled at her looking into her eyes "As long as you wear that ring you will have me with you always." He said with a kiss. "Remember that you can always relay on me and with this ring I am always with you."

Mai smiled, "Speaking of wedding bells, we should start to plan our wedding." She said smiling, the QWT forgotten. His eye contact getting her full attention, she listened to what he was say intently, "I don't think I could ever not be with you. This ring will help me when I can't be then." she said breaking their eye contact and looking at it then looking back at Rei, "Thank you." she wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed his lips, eyes closed.
