Chapter 128 - Christmas Holidays (I)
[POV Reo(Edgar)]
I groggily opened my eyes and found myself tangled in female limbs… ah, I am the luckiest guy. What more can I say? Four beautiful girls were sleeping along with me after a night of passion. From the sunlight it was clear that it was already noon… after all, the five of us went to sleep only after sun was already up. I untangled myself with quite some difficulty and got out of the bed. I covered the girls with a blanket and walked into the shower.
After a nice and long relaxing shower, I finally got out and got changed into casual muggle clothes. Last night we had decided to stay in our flat, which was no under a Fidelius, Rumi was our secret keeper and only 4 people knew the secret, including Dora. I entered the kitchen and found a letter was waiting on the table… it was addressed to me. Several alarms went off in my head… first of all a letter shouldn't be here and secondly no one should invite me.
Before I even touched the letter I casted several diagnostics charms on it to check the contents. Seeing that everything was normal I opened the letter and found that it was from Amelia. I was about to read the letter but my stomach rumbled loudly… I called Nixy, and Lipsy to cook breakfast styled lunch after all, none of us had breakfast. I also found out that the letter arrived in the castle and Dixy delivered it here when found that all of us were still sleeping.
I started to read the letter and found out that Amelia was inviting us to Bones Manor for Christmas. She was telling me that all of the members of our Alliance were being invited. Well, I had nothing better to do but I would still ask the girls before giving her a reply. Amelia was also giving a break to Dora, did she have a shift now? Thinking about the girls I should go and wake them up.
"Fuck, Fuck, Fuck!!!" I heard several screams from the room. Its was clearly Dora, I heard a loud thump next, bet she had tripped. I opened the door and entered the room to find Dora was pulling up a pair of jeans while rolling on the floor. She must have fallen tripped while wearing her pants.
"Um… is going commando is the new fashion?" I asked Dora as she clearly wasn't wearing any knickers and was pulling up her jeans. Her head immediately snapped in my direction, I am surprised that she didn't get a whiplash due to that.
"Help me… I am already late for my shift!" Dora said with puppy dog eyes.
"Don't worry… Amelia let you have a have a break, today. She kind of guessed that you are going to be late for your shift" I said, it was true as it was written in the letter. At that time, I didn't know why it was but it was apparently because she knew that Dora was going to be late.
Dora finally released a sigh while I waved my hand and Dora was again out of her tangled jeans. "Ah… Bonesy is really thoughtful" Dora said and dropped back on the bed.
"Yes, that she is but its already late, get a shower I am gonna wake up the others" I said to Dora who groaned seeing that she would be unable to return to her sleep. She got up grumbling something about beast of a boyfriend, I gave her a smug grin before kissing her. She pouted because the kiss ended and entered the shower. She had already gotten used to us as she didn't close the shower door. I quickly woke up the others and after a round of morning kisses they also entered the shower and I went back to kitchen.
Nixy and Lipsy have already placed the food on the table with a heating charm on them. I opened the Daily Prophet and started to check the news… everything written there was almost shit. Yes, their stories are kind of truth but they kind of make it up spicy on their own. The girls quickly joined me on the table… I asked them about the invitation, Dora also happily accepted but she also invited us at her house on Boxing Day. Apparently, her mom had found out that she has a boyfriend and had nagged her until Dora agreed.
But before any of that I needed to visit Sirius and Harry and take a report for them. From Amelia and Nemuri I have found several things about the Tri-Wizard Tournament. The first thing is that this tournament is going to be different from any Twi-Wizard Tournaments happened previously.
Apparently, there is going to be six participants this time, how the hell they are going to do that no one outside of the managers know for now. I can certainly say that they aren't going to confound the cup into believing that there are six schools and one student from each school.
(A/N: I have taken the idea from a fanfic called Black Princess Ascendant by Silently Watches. If you want you can check the fanfic, it is one of the nicest fanfics I have ever read. It is a femslash along with normal relationship. Even tough the fanfic is really dark I would say its one of the best I have read. The fanfic is Quadro logy and it is completely finished. I am not going to say anything more here… if you don't want to read how the tournament happens in that fanfic then I would ask you to wait and see but the events are going to be different)
Well… for now, who cares. After breakfast or lunch, Dora decided to visit her Mum and dad, the rest of us decided to return to the castle. After arriving in the castle, I went to visit Attila who was very happy with her new home. She hunted some wild animals in a forest once a month… she told me that was apparently enough for her huge body. I have no idea how her metabolism works though. I also started a side project… making an armour for Attila that would protect her from a cock's crow. That sounded really bad but I guess most of us understood what I wanted to say…
Three days passed since the Christmas Holidays have started and I have warded all of my properties with the help of the elves and girls against Phoenixes. I don't want a Phoenix flaming into my castle… and from what I had found out. Currently only three people own a Phoenix as their familiar in the whole world. One is a Japanese old dude… he is very much older than Dumbles an could keel over any day now. Another guy is from India, he is rather young when compared to both Dumbles and Japanese old dude. This guy is only in his sixties… and lastly Dumbles he is the most worrisome.
Apparently, Ol Twinkles thinks that he has the right to every information out there. And he could actually flame inside my Castle or any other property to find any information regarding us. I won't put it past him doing just that, so with that done I was finally ready to visit Sirius and Harry.
Wearing my armour, I portkeyed to France and then directly apparated into Sirius's house. Since Sirius had added me into the wards… the wards didn't try to stop me. But, I personally think that I arrived here at wrong time since guests were here and everyone was looking at me. It was quite easy for me to recognize who these guests were… the Delacours. Fleur was in her 6th year and it was quite easy to recognize her. Sirius and Harry were gaping like a fish… I too didn't know what to say the Delacours immediately pulled out their wands and pointed in my direction.
(A/N: I am gonna try to replicate their accent shown in the movies but don't go too hard on me if this doesn't work)
"Ho are you? Ow ziz you enterz here?" It was the oldest lady of the group. Apolline Delacour. I really had a hard time to understand what she was saying but seeing the situation it was quite easy to understand.
"You can call me Magneto, and I apparated here if you wanted to know" I said in a cheerful voice in a manner that I was stating facts. The two adults and the one almost adult Delacour was completely dumbfounded.
"Bad time Magneto… it is a really bad time for you to visit" Harry said while shaking his head.
"Yeah, I can see that… from next time I will drop a message before dropping by" I said in a sarcastic tone.
"You can't be serious?" Sirius whined like a kid.
"Of course not, you are Sirius" I said, yes, I decided to make a Sirius joke. Harry groaned and face-palmed while Sirius barked out in laughter. The Delacours didn't even knew what to say anymore they just stood at their initial place completely dumfounded.
"Now, that's the cat out of the bag… let me introduce you to everyone" Harry said taking the lead. I have to say… he has grown up a lot…
