Entry 68
July 30th
Something's wrong! I know it! I can't explain it but I just know that something's wrong with Orion. There's something in his letters that isn't right and I can't ask anyone about it! I don't want to worry Rose and Orion would kill me if I asked Mum and Dad. Is this because Remus resigned? Or is there something else going on that Orion hasn't told me? Maybe I should write to Neville. He knows Orion better than anyone.
Dad's calling so I have to go. We're reviewing Transfiguration today! It's so much easier than Charms.
Entry 69
August 10th
We can go! Mum and Dad finally agreed that Rose and I can go to the Quidditch World Cup! Ron's dad won tickets and Dad managed to get a few extra so we can all sit together…well, most of us. Orion and Neville are in a different box. I'm not sure which one. Orion just tells me not to worry about it.
Anyways, I think I'm more excited for the Seeker's Challenge than the actual Quidditch match itself. Dad's excited to see it too. He said that this is the first time anyone's ever put something like this together. It will be the Krum from Bulgaria and Lynch from Ireland against two local Seekers. The strange thing is that no one knows who he local Seekers are. Dad tried to find out but he said that the few people at the Ministry who do know aren't talking.
I wonder if Orion knows…I bet he does but I don't think he'll tell me. He's still acting strange. Rose is even noticing. What should I do?
Entry 70
August 23rd
I—I don't know how to explain it. I had a dream about Voldemort and Wormtail. They were in some rundown room talking about the World Cup, the Ministry, Bertha Jorkins and a boy Voldemort wanted to kill—I think it might've been me. Voldemort kept asking Wormtail if he was sure and then said that they'd find out soon enough. Voldemort then killed a man and I woke up.
I don't understand. Why am I dreaming about Voldemort and Wormtail? What does it mean? Why won't anyone tell me anything?
I told Mum and Dad and they told Dumbledore. No one will tell me anything but I think that's because Mum's really worried. She started crying when I mentioned a boy Voldemort wanted to kill. I think she's afraid of losing me too. I just hope I'm wrong.
I want to tell my friends about my dream but I'm scared. What if they think I'm nutter? What if they don't want to be my friend anymore? Er—maybe I should hold off for now.
Entry 71
August 26th
Er—I really don't know where to start. We just got back from the World Cup. The Seeker's Challenge was unbelievable! Orion and Diggory flew for us and they were excellent! I couldn't believe all the tricks Orion could do. He's never done half of that during Quidditch practice.
The World Cup was amazing! Ireland won but Viktor Krum from Bulgaria caught the Snitch! Only Fred and George saw that one coming and won a lot of money betting on it. Ron's a bit jealous but I think he'll get over it. I honestly don't know what's wrong with him. There's more to life than money.
Last night wasn't as much fun. Some Death Eaters destroyed the campsite and then the Dark Mark was cast. I really don't know what happened. I was knocked out. Thankfully Orion, Neville and Diggory were there to help when Remus went looking for Rose. I was so scared. I thought something happened to her but she was safe with Ron and Hermione.
I just don't know what it all means. It can't be a coincidence that I have a dream about Voldemort and then there are Death Eaters for the first time in years. I can't talk to Mum and Dad about it. They're scared enough as it is. I can tell.
Whatever's coming, I just know I have to protect Rose from it.
Entry 72
September 1st
I can't believe it! They've brought back the Tri-Wizard Tournament and there's an age limit! You have to be seventeen to enter so I can't. Isn't that great! No one's going to be pressuring me to enter so I'll finally have a relaxing school year. I can't begin to describe how happy that makes me.
The only bad thing is that there won't be any Quidditch this year. I had been hoping for Orion to teach me a few of his tricks but I guess that will have to wait until next year…unless I can persuade him to go flying sometime. I mean, without Quidditch, we'll have loads of free time and Orion's always done with his homework early anyways.
We also have a new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher…again. This time it's Mad-Eye Moody. I don't know that much about it, just that he's a retired Auror. Everyone's excited about his class but I wish Remus was still here. He was a great teacher. Who cares if he's a werewolf? It's not like he intentionally tried to hurt us…like Quirrell and Lockhart did.
I should get to bed but it's a bit difficult with everyone still talking about the Tournament. I hope everything settles down soon.
A/N: So I finally updated. Yay me! :-)
