Chapter 1

"The Princess and the Squib"

Excitement was never dying down in Hogwarts. In the span of one month, the news of two schools from across Europe arriving for the Triwizard tournament fueled the students of Hogwarts with a sense of interest and of course excitement. These two schools were said to be arriving around seven o'clock to a well cleaned and prepped Hogwarts. But it wasn't only the students that were intrigued by the current events but even the staff looked forward to the arrival of the schools. Even a small time Squib like Harry Potter who was always fascinated with magic felt his heart leap with joy to new events taking place.

Harry Potter was a seventeen year old Squib boy with emerald eyes and unruly black hair plus glasses. He currently lived with a man named Rubeus Hagrid who happened to be a half-giant wizard with the most friendly smile and beard to match it. Losing his parents at a young age, Harry had no memory of them but his only memory was following the teachings he was given by Hagrid who was the Grounds Keeper of Hogwarts. Harry, though he was a boy who could never use magic for the life of him, was in love with the concept of 'Magic' which made his job as assistant Grounds Keeper an adventure for the boy. Taking care of many magical beasts and creatures was his favorite part of his job. He spent many days cleaning the Owlery to taking care of the Hippogrifs. He actually hated this task the most since most of the Hippogrifs are to playful. This caused feeding times and cleaning times to be very stressful since most of the flock that he was in charge of was the youngest of the herd.

"Bloody Grif! I bowed already!"

The currently Hippogrif that was being currently fed by Harry was giving him a hard time. Harry, who was currently trying to feed the creature with it's favorite chum of worms, was not having at it at all.

"I bowed I said! It's like you're doing this on purpose Leaftalon!"

The Hippogrif 'Leaftalon' just snorted and laid down on its hind legs which made Harry more infuriated. Leaftalon didn't show a look of amusement but Harry could have swear there was a playful glint in the creatures eyes.

"Fine. If you don't want your supper then I will give it to Seawing. She deserves a second meal for being so good today anyways."

Harry huffed has he turned away from Leaftalon. He was about to make his way to Seawing when he felt a soft tug on his robes. He sighed softly has he cocked his head to the side to reveal Leaftalon bowing down to him. Harry turned around and bowed back. He placed the chum right in front of Leaftalon which Leaftalon took it upon itself to gulp it all down. Harry sighed has he softly stroked Leaftalon's feathers.

"Now was that hard?"

The only response Harry got back was a soft snort that Leaftalon managed to let escape in the middle of eating. Harry rolled his eyes.

"Yeah yeah Leaftalon. Love you too you bloody Grif."

He pat the back of Leaftalon one last time as he grabbed the now empty bucket of chum and made his way out of the Hippogrif stable. His day was barely starting but his energy that he currently had didn't come from a good nights sleep but rather excitement of the arrival of the new schools. He was about to make his way to his tent before he was flagged down by Hagrid who was coming by with another Hippogrif.

"Hello Harry! Done with yeh chores? I reckon those bloody Hippogrifs givin' yeh trouble?"

"Other then Leaftalon? No not really."

"Ahh Leaftalon. Bloody mess that one. Always a trouble maker."

Hagrid let out a hearty laugh as Harry rolled his eyes for the third time today. His eyes wondered to the strange colored Hippogrif. Most of the colors he had dealt with were either bronze or stormy grey but this black one was an interesting color.

"Hey Hagrid, whats with the black Hippogrif?"

"Oh this? This is an inky black Hippogrif Harry. Very rare to get actually. Just got it from the market for a good price!"

With this Harry gave a glare at Hagrid which made the wizard start to sweat. Crossing his arms, Harry gave a questioning look towards Hagrid.

"Hagrid. You did run this by Master Dumbledore yes?"

Hagrid just turned his head away from Harry has he got closer.

"Right Hagrid?"

Hagrid silently ignored his student while swiftly making his way towards the stable with the black Hippogrif. Harry was not having any of this. His usual rant started the moment Hagrid ignored his question. It didn't even stop when Hagrid fully got the Hippogrif settled and locked the stable door behind him.

"-swear Hagrid! It's like you don't have a sense for the rules!"

"Oh off it Harry. I was goin' to tell Dumbledore later this evenin' abou' the Hippogrif at diner. No harm to it. Now did yeh finish yeh chores or not?"

Harry just shook his head at his master antics as he sighed deeply. This meant more paperwork to go through which he didn't want to spend his lovely evening doing.

"Yes Hagrid. I finished all my chores for the day."

"Even-"

"Yes."

"Yes Hagrid. Even the Owlery since we did it this morning together remember?"

"Right yeh're Harry. Good stuff. Now the new schools are comin' in a few hours so we must be ready to take in Beauxbatons's Abraxan. There will be at leas' eigh' of them Harry so be careful when handling them."

This sent a spark in Harry's eyes which Hagrid smiled at. He knew Harry was always excited to meet new magical creatures or beast which was probably one of the reasons why he always bought them without permission from their Headmaster. Even if it did cause his student to pull his hair out at the ends. Smiling in a daze, Hagrid dragged his daydreaming student back to their hut so they could get ready for the arrival of the Beauxbatons

/Squib\

Fleur Delacour wasn't excited on her current trip to the Triwizard Tournament. Everyone that was attending it with her were all estatic to participate in the tournament but not Fleur. She had enough of all the fame as it is. Being half veela and having a father who was the french minister was enough fame she wanted in her life. Most of the time she had a hard time making friends with anyone. All the time, the boys drooled while looking at her which caused the girls to accuse of her many things. She didn't even want the attention! Instead of dealing with the drama, she stayed to herself while giving a cold approach to things. But of course just like every other person, she at least had a friend or two. Luckly one of those friend were with her. Her friend Clara was a close friend of hers who she had the beginning of her school years. Which was the same person who was none stop quoting french muggle movie quotes over and over again.

"For the last time Clara! Stop with the silly muggle talk or I will cast Densaugo Hex on you!" Fleur said in French.

Clara gave a mocked hurt look at her silver haired blue eyed friend. Clara herself was also a beautiful girl with curves and long black hair to match. She wasn't as beautiful as Fleur she felt but she at least was at the top of her league. Besides she rarely had interest in such things such as love.

"But Fleur my dear! I thought you loved my movie quotes! I am hurt!"

Fleur rolled her eyes at her friends antics and tossed a pillow at Clara's face. Her friend just laughed has she avoided the pillow. Fleur knew that Clara was only being annoying to make her feel better about the trip which she was grateful for. In all honesty, Fleur wanted her friend Clara to be the one to participate in the tournament. She was rooting for her from the bottom of her heart. Taking a long sigh at the thought of the tournament, Fleur was wondering when they were going to arrive at the school called "Hogwarts". She found the name a bit crude for what it was named. Though she read many things about the school in her academies library, she still didn't like the information she had on the school which seemed to be less about it's achievements and more of the misdeeds it produced.

"Fleur! We are landing soon!"

Clara's remark brought Fleur out of her thought process and allowed her to smile. Her friends behavior over the trip was one of the things that calmed her down. She shook her head in admiration of her friend who was practically almost about to jump out the window of the carriage.

"Yes yes Clara. Now calm down before you manners beset your position as a lady."

/Squib\

Harry yawned into his sleeve has his robes danced against the chilly wind. It wasn't even Halloween yet the air around Hogwarts could have made the Black Lake freeze over many times over. Of course Harry wasn't bothered by this cold which Hagrid by his side agreed with. It was about to be dusk with no sign of any school arriving at all. Of course this didn't stop almost all the students waiting for the two schools arriving. Harry didn't care of the crowd but was more concerned of the arrival of Beauxbatons. Harry was getting quite annoyed which could be seen by the way his foot tapped against the uneven ground.

"Hagrid... How much longer?"

"Shouldn' be that much longer Harry. They should be arrivin' shortly. Keep yeh're wit to yeh."

Harry rolled his eyes at his master. He knew very well it was perfectly healthy to have a fascination with things magical but Hagrid disagreed with Harry's methods. Of course Harry knew all about Hagrid's love for magical creatures and beast which made him scoff but still loved the big softy of a giant. He was about to complain more about how much longer it was taking till he heard a soft neigh from above. But over time this neigh got more fierce the closer a black object in the sky headed its way from were they stood. Harry gasped in astonishment and awe.

"..Hagrid is that...?"

Hagrid beamed at his student as he softly shook Harry's shoulder to get him back into reality. Harry himself couldn't take his eyes off the majestic beasts that looked like they were floating on air as they ran.

"Indeed Harry. Those are Abraxan. Mighty lookin' arn' they? Very rare to breed. Only some parts around the world breed them. Very intimidatin'."

Harry could only nod in response with his eyes lighting up like fireworks. Hagrid let out a soft chuckle and got ready to receive the mighty steeds. Taking his signal paddles, Hagrid signaled the carriage to land right in front of him but it sorely missed him. Ducking quickly, Hagrid had to tackle Harry before he had his head cleaned off. Both of the two landed on the ground with a grunt before Hagrid got off him. He looked up at the carriage with anger.

"Sorry Harry. Bloody driver didn' wan' to land. Who ever is drivin' that carriage is daft in th-"

Hagrid stopped what he was saying as he watched several students in blue robes walk out with a tall woman. This woman was taller then Hagrid and he turned slightly red in noticing the giantess. With his vacant expression written over his face, Harry gave a confused one on his.

"Oi Hagrid? What you looking at?"

Harry finally got up and dusted himself off as his eyes traveled where Hagrid's never moved from. He frowned when he noticed a woman who seemed to give Hagrid a run for his money on his height. Now understanding his master's weird behavior, Harry rolled his eyes.

"Come on you lover boy. We got work to do."

Ignoring his master, Harry made his way towards the carriage with Hagrid in tow. He was more interested in the Abraxan then whatever was coming out of the carriage.

/Squib\

Fleur had finally gotten her friend to calm down while she herself was trying to make herself believe the same. Her own heart was fluttering left and right due to the excitement. Even though she wasn't keen to coming, this was still an exciting event nonetheless. She and Clara made their way through the halls of the carriage till finally they reached the entrance where they waited for their Headmaster Olympe Maxime to address them.

"Now Ladies, you are part of the prestigious academy of Beauxbatons. I shall not see anything unladylike in any manner. Am I understood?"

The entire group of thirty students all replied yes in response which made their Headmaster grin before opening the door of the carriage. Olympe lead the way for her student who followed her out of the carriage. Clapping her hands, her students stood in a single row behind her, each standing at attention with grace. This caused the students of Hogwarts who were waiting outside the carriage to let out a response of awe and cheer. Fleur took this time to gaze at her surroundings. She looked towards the surrounding forest that seemed to go on forever with mountain peaks popping out overhead. She turned her attention to the looming castle behind the students she was facing. Granted it wasn't as beautiful as the palace of Beuaxbaton but it was certainly a sight. Fleur felt a slight nudged to her right and turned her attention to her friend.

"Hounds everywhere. Be careful."

Taking the hint, Fleur's attention was brought back to the students in front of her which made her frown. Most of the gazes were placed on her. A mix of what seemed like love to lust in full volumes. She also noticed it wasn't only the males staring but even the female gaze was slightly mingled in between. Fleur's face turned into a look of disgust. Fleur decided in the end to bring her attention back to her headmistress. Olympe was about to charge forward again but to only stop when somebody confronted her. Dumbledore with his glittering eyes and beard full of wisdom welcomed the other Headmaster with open arms.

"Ah Olympe. Lovely to see you as always."

Dumbledore took Olympe's hand and kissed it softly. Olympe smiled but her smile did not reach her eyes at all.

"Albus. Its very good to zee you. 'ealthy 'as ever I zee?"

Dumbledore let out a soft chuckle before letting go of Olympe's hand. He was about to respond with a friendly retort but was interrupted by a loud thud from the front of the carriage. This caught both of the headmaster's attention including their students.

/Squib\

Harry had to practically push Hagrid from his spot to do his work. He carefully examined the Abraxan with joy. This mighty beast were of dreams in his opinion and this was a life time opportunity to get this close to one or in fact a dozen. Hagrid was still in a daze by the time Harry placed both of them in front of the Abraxan.

"Hagrid. Hagrid... Hagrid!"

Calling his name numerous times, Harry finally gave up before taking one of the paddles on the ground and hitting the backside of Hagrids head. The entire paddle shattered in pieces but this brought Hagrid out of his daze.

"Whot..? Where? Harry?"

"There you are. Now are you going to help me with these Abraxan or not?"

"Oh righ'. Jus' let me get rope."

Rolling his eyes at his master for who knows the how many times now, Harry turned his attention to the Abraxan. These creatures weren't even paying any attention to him at all. Such noble creatures probably thought Harry was not worth their attention. Smiling at the challenge, Harry got into a charging position while bending his knees. Abraxan are loyal creatures who are loyal to those who they acknowledge. There was two ways to get a Abraxan to acknowledge you. First way is to raise the foal from a tender age to gain it's trust or-

"Strength Contest."

Grinning like a madman, Harry challenged the Abraxan in front of him by stomping his foot on the ground. This caught the attention of the entire herd of the Abraxan. Only the Abraxan in the front left was willing to take the challenge. Harry could have swore he saw fire in the mighty winged horse's eyes. Now he couldn't back down. Taking a huge breath, Harry's muscles tensed before he hurtled forward with all his might. The Abraxan stomped its hooves as it prepared for the impact. Both of their bodies collided with Harry ramming his shoulder into the neck of the Abraxan. The sound of the impact sounded like a cannon firing off as Harry's body couldn't take the contact. But he felt some weird sensation as they both collided before he went flying due to the force. His body went limp on the ground.

Harry groaned in pain as he held his ribs. Yup he was going to need to take a walk towards the Madame Pomfrey after everything was done. He ignored the pain that throbbed through out his entire body and stood up slowly from his position. He couldn't risk staying down. Staying down meant weakness which would lose favor from the Abraxan if he did. Once he was on his feet and standing straight did the Abraxan all cried in respect. Harry was about to charge again to gain more favor before he was stopped by something picking him up from behind.

"Harry! What the bloody hell are yeh doing!?"

Harry struggled in Hagrids grasp as he tried to get down. When he finally figured out that all of his attempts was useless, he just slumped in Hagrid's hold.

"Hagrid! I was just trying to test the Abraxan!"

Both of the Headmasters who attention was brought by the sound of the impact both looked with interest at the two gatekeepers. Olympe gave a surprised look at Dumbledore.

"I never knew one of your students knew 'ow to approach an Abraxan Albus. Rather barbaric zay to do it but interesting."

"I'm afraid that is not a student Olypme but a gatekeeper of Hogwarts. A very promising lad I must say."

Dumbledore's eyes twinkled at the sight of the two gatekeepers arguing with each other. Fleur and the rest of the students followed their headmaster and stared at the two strange entities in front of her. One was a huge man who looked like he could rival her Headmistress with an amazing beard and mane to match. Besides the man was a boy who looked about her age. Slightly taller then Fleur, the boy had ruff tangled black short hair and glasses that covered his emerald eyes. She watched in amusement with the other students as both of these men argued.

Fleur noticed the boy was done arguing with the giant man because now he was surveying the crowd. He looked like he barely noticed the crowd as he eyes scanned it. Fleur watched as the boy's eyes landed on hers. Both of them stared at each other for a single moment. She waited for the look of lust or wanting to draw on the boy's face but she saw nothing of the sort. The boy simply sweep his gaze past her till he just shrugged and turned his attention back to the giant. Fleur was stunned by the response the boy gave her. If she looked like she was in shock then she was because it showed all over her face. This bothered her friend Clara as she stared at Fleur.

"Whats wrong Fleur?" She said in french.

But her friend was in a slight daze, ignoring her at the moment. Fleur's attention was on the boy with black hair and emerald eyes.
