The Goblet of Fire: A literate Harry Potter thread

After their third year at Hogwarts. Harry reluctantly heads back to the Dursleys untill his forth year starts. Half-way through the summer he goes to stay with the Wealseys, and attends the Quidditch World Cup tournament, where the Death Eaters attack and things go awry. The children return to Hogwarts for they're fourth year. Our thread starts with all the children gathering in the Great hall after the sorting. They're all enjoying the feast and waiting for Dumbledor to make his annual annoucement.

This thread is completely fan based and may not follow the books or movies past the point that posting starts. All history follows the books but the future is up to you. We now have an OOC thread: Click here and talk about whatever you like.




Warning!

This Thread may end up containing material of a more mature nature. You can't always control other people posts, or minds. It could also end up containing yaoi or yuri martials. Not that it will... but you never know! So if it does... no complaining. You've been warned.





I found this in another thread and thought it was cool... So I stole it. It's the letter you get from Hogwarts your Frist year:

Rules
Read all rules!!



arrow 1 - exclaim YOU MUST BE LITERATE!! Meaning that you have to know how to spell and put words into sentences. This is an enforced Literate thread. We have enforcers that will take care of people who are not literate. Typos are ok. Blatant disreguard for the english language is not.

arrow 2 - No cybering:: I think that this is self explanitory.

arrow 3 - Keep to Gaia's PG-13 rule

arrow 4 - No killing for completely pointless reasons or without permission from the character's player.

arrow 5 - No godmoding:: Means that you cant make a character and think that it will be all powerful. If you do decide to godmode..... You're character WILL be taken care of....

arrow 6 - You must stay in your characters personality. This really is self explainatory as well. I mean there will be some times where the personality of a particular character will change, but if you decide a personality for someone then please try to stick to it.

arrow 7 - Do NOT come in here rping like a a child, this is more advanced than that. What this means is that I dont want you to come in here and then expect things to be handed to you. If there are times that you aren't here but others are, and have been Rping, and we are a few pages ahead....please dont come in and say that you cant Rp cause you dont know how to fit your character in. If you want to get into the RP try talking to another Character. We try not to ignore anyone.

arrow 8 - If you're going to flame someone, try to keep it to PMs. If you don't want to take it to PMs then take it somewhere else. Only certain people have permission to flame people in this thread, and your probably not one of them. I just dont want my threads filled with nonsense.

arrow 9 - Please keep the OOC's to a minimum. If you want to include one before or after your post, that's fine. OOC's cludder the thread and make it difficult to find actually topic posts.

arrow 10 - Pm your character's profile and a sample of your rping skills to Sombergoddess. For cannon characters Pm the name of the character requesting and the rp sample. Just to be sure that you've read the rules, put "Expelliarmus" as the subject to your pm. Before you pm me please be sure your pm's are enabled. It really ticks me off when I can't pm you back.

arrow 11 - You must be active. If you don't post for over 5 days, and haven't given me a reason in advance, your character will be deleted or given to someone else!

arrow 12 - No more then one quote per post. That means no quoting something that already has a quote in it!!

arrow 13 - Last and most Important ~~~have fun~~~. This is a place for people to come and have fun....so I hope that is what happens here.

No Quidditch this year... By the book! There will be an annoucment in thread if you want to vioce your indignation.

No one can have the brother of Harry's wand!! Sorry folks... it's already taken...

If you want to play a relative of a main character, you must have permission from the person playing that character... Meaning that you have to pm them and get their permission yourself!! And noone can play a made-up Weasley. If you want one... pick from them...

No Anitimagnus... unless your an adult and your registered with the Ministry.

No Veela... Just because I hate them!

And last, try to keep your character's personality matching their house... or you'll be moved into the proper House by me.

"I really hope that I brought everything." The youung girl tells herself the night before she has to leave for Hogwarts. She goes through her list of stuff that she needed to bring again. Again she comes to the conclussion that she brought everything. "Well looks like I got everything this time mother.." she call out.

"Well lets hope that you do cause you did forget things last year." her mother calls back with a slight chuckle. "Im glad you find pleasure in my misery." Angel replies back with a slight chuckle of her own. She puts evertyhing down by the door so when she awakens in the morning so everything will be right there when she is ready to leave.

She turns and heads to the kitchen where her mother resides for the moment making her daughter some going away cookies again. "I hope that these will be enough. I dont want my baby to forget her mother." she says holding back some tears.

She always hated the last couple of days before she left. Her mother always thought that she was going to forget her and so went to all measures to make sure that she did. Angel places her arms around her mother. "Mother you know that I didnt forget about you last year or the year before that. What makes you think that I wil this year." she asks quietly.

"You are just geting older and you never know when some boy will come along and take your eyes and mind away from your family." she says the tears falling free again. "I would never let that happen mom. Please understand that. I would never let the school, nor any boy for that matter turn my head away from my family. You know that you and dad are the most important people in my life. Please dont forget that." Angell tells her mother.

Every year she hd this conversatiopn with her mother. Every year her mother is afraid that someone or something will break uyp the happy little family. There was the one time that she talked about someone from the school that caught her attention and that has what set her mother off on this little thing she does all the time.

"I will write you and do everything that I always do to keep you informed. I dont want you to worry about me and I dont want you to think that I am going to forget you either. So please stop worrying. Oh...is Father going to be there to see me off tomorrow?" Angel asks with much hope.

Kerine turns and looks at her daughter. "I dont think so sweety. Your father is out on some sort of secret mission right now. He wouldnt even tell me what it is. So I dont think he will be there. Though I am sure that he wants to be. He always regrets not sending you off every year." she says with her motherly sympathetic voice.

Angel looks down at the floor and merely nods her head. "You know if he didnt want me to go all he had to do is tell me no. He doesnt have to avoid me when this time comes along. It seems he is always doing something around this time. It's just hard to think that he really doesnt want me to be going there." She says looking back up at her mother.

"Dont think like that my little Angel. Your father wants to be there. He loves you very much and only wants the best for you. The reason he gave you permission to go is because he thought this was the best for you. SO please dont think that your father doesnt care and doesnt want you to go." mother wraps her daughter back up in a tight hug.

"You are right mother. I dont know what would have even made me think that. PLease forgive me for thinking such negative thoughts about Father. I promise not to have them again." she reassures her mother. "No Problem Angel. Now you should get yourself to bed. You have a long day ahead of you tomorrow."

With a nodd Angel kisses her mom and then goes off to bed. When she reaches her room she sits down on her bed. She pulls out an envelope and places it on her nightstand. She kinda knew that her father wouldnt be there this year...so she wrote her annual note to him ahead of time.

She lays down in the bed and stares at her ceiling. So many things are running through her head that it is hard for her to sleep. Thigs like "What kind of things is she to expect this year? What kind of trouble is everyone going to getinto this year? Things like that are rolling through her head. Plus the main question for herself. Will she catch his eye this year.

With the thoughts of the possibility that she will catch his eye a slight smile forms on her face. She wont over do herself and make herself look desperate, but perhaps this time she will actually talk to him.

With that being the last thought she drift off into a quiet slumber. Dreams about things to come and things that have happened. She always has these dreams before she goes to Hogwarts. They never meant anything but it is what always happens. Nothing that she ever dreams about comes true...so she never thinks much on it.

Her Mother comes in the next morning so that she can get ready for the new year. She gets up and showers, dresses and gets ready to go. She is really excited about it this year.Things will go well...and nothing will happen that isnt supposed to. She puts her hair up in a ponytail and goes down to see her mother. There is breakfast waiting for her and her mother is no where to be seen. She figures that mother is outside packing her things up and crying the whole time she is doing it.

She sits down at the table and begins to eat her breakfast. In the middle of her eating her mother walks through the kitchen and sits down. So this will be the last breakfast until you come home again. I hope that you enjoy it."

"I do mom...and dont talk like I am not coming back. I come home for christams so it isnt like I will be gone for years and years. I really wish you wouldnt work yourself up like this mother. I worry when you do this. I heard that you can get sick from worrying this much...and Id dont want you to get sick. SO try to calm down alriight" she says calmingly to her mother.

He mother nods at her and begins to eat her breakfast. The rest of the meal goes very well and no more sadness is talked about. After breakfast Angel help her mother clean up and get ready the rest of the way. She makes one more run through the house to make sure she has everything.

Once she realizes that she has everything she goes outside to meet her mom at the car. "Alright I have everything. I am ready to go now." she says smiling at her mom. Her mom nods and gets into the car. Shortly after Angel is in and ready to go. "Any word from father by chance?" she asks halfway to where they were going. "No nothing. I will tell him that you said bye and that you love him. I will also give him the note that you left on your nightstand." Kerine says not looking at her daughter. She knew the note would be there. It is there every year waiting for to give to Richard.

Once they get to where they are supposed to go, Angel gets out and grabs her luggage. She looks around and sees some of the same people she went to school with the years before. She also seen some new faces heading towards the secret station. "Well this is where I leave you mother. I promise I will write and let you know everything. Also tll father that I love him and will miss him. Tell hiim to take care of you or else." Angel says with a smile spreading.

Her mother mods at her and gives her a hug goodbye. Angel can see that her mother wants to cry but is going to wait until Angel is out of sight. "Goodbye baby. Take care of yourself." she says finally letting go. "I will dont worry. I love you and I will see you at christmas." and wioth that I kissed her forhead and walks off towards the station.

She goes to where she is supposed to and gets on the train. She goes to her seat and takes out a book. She will just read the whole way there. It takes up the most time. And she was right. She gets to Hogwarts and has to be brought back to reality. She thanks the boy and gather her things.

She gets off the train, get the rest of her things and goes into Hogwarts. She goes and goes to her room. She begins to put her things away. She associate with her roommates a little before leaving to get the schedule of her classes. She gets the schedule and begins doing what it is she is to do.

She met up with some of her friends to talk about what they did over the summer. After ahile she left those friends and went back to her room. She gets there and walks into some people talking about stuff that she seemed to miss earlier. They werew talking about Ron and something with Draco. She didnt catch it all. But she wasnt going to be nosey either. Though she didnt see the object of her affection today..perhaps she will soon. Matter of fact she is quite certain that she will. They were all getting into trouble.

"Did you see him yet?" one of the girls asks out of the blue. Angel looks at her and blushes a bit. "I dont know what you are talking about. And must you say it so everyone in the school can hear." she says shaking her head and chuckleing a bit. "I didnt say it that loud but if you would like I can tell the school gossip and then everyone will know."

With another shake of the head Angel looks back at her friend. "You know a best friend wouldnt threaten something like that. You are sworn to secrecy for the rest of your life." Her friend smiles and nods. "This is true unless you do something to make me angry...then I can use it as blackmail."

Angel sticks out her tongue and then gets up and hugs her friend. They talk about a few other boys that might be boyfriend material as they get ready to go down to the great hall. "Well looks like it's time to go. Let us be off to see who we have joining us this year." she says with a chuckle.
She grabs her friends hand and heads off down the corridor and into the great hall. She promtly goes in and takes her seat.

Cedric entered the school as he always does. People saying hello to him left and right and the girls already starting to whisper and giggle about him. This made for a great beginning to a fresh year at Hogwarts. "Ah it's good to see you again.." was what he said to alot of the people.

"Ah are you ready for Quidditch this year. I believe that we will take the cup home this year. This is going to being a great year I can just feel it." he gloats to his friends from the year before. He gloats like this every year and never does the cup get taken back to his house.

This year is going to be different. This year it'll be about Hufflepuff and not Slytherin or Gryffindor. This he was sure of. With more greetings to his friends he heads off towards the great hall to await the announcements.
Ker ran his fingers through his long hair, then nodded at the first years who had just been added to their class. Far be it from him to actually speak without being spoken to, though. It left a rather funny scene, actually. The first-years, some of who had heard the rumors of what Ker was famous for, his combat prowess, that was, both with spells, weapons, and with nothing but his body, intimidated into speechlessness, and his taciturn nature keeping him from speaking to them. Ah well, it wasn't as if that wasn't so strange for Ker.

Seeing a couple of Gryffindor girls sit down near him, including Angel, he nodded at them in greeting as well. It was funny...quite a few students weren't sitting at the tables in time for the Sorting, not only the famous fourth-year dream team of Gryffindor. Ah well, water under the bridge. Now if only the plates would fill with food, Ker could do justice to the feast.

What? He was hungry.

Sitting at the Slytherin table were a pair of rather hulking brutes. Crabbe and Goyle, Malfoy's main lackeys. Currently, their lord and master was not at the table, leaving them to speculate...well, dimly speculate on who was extortable this year. As dumb as they were, they did have an understanding of the way to bully people effectively. Gryffindors were right out outside of the first two years's worth. Bravery was not a good trait for a target to have. Besides, there was that overly moralistic fifth-year who knew martial arts to worry about. Ravenclaws...well, book smarts didn't always translate into street smarts. Four years worth, and a couple of fifths. Hufflepuffs, up through sixth year, chosen with care. Syltherins...no need to cause dissent in the ranks, as Draco might say. Syltherin underclassmen knew their places. "I wonder where Draco is..."
