Arrival

[Sergei Ivanov]

Sergei was visibly trembling with anticipation. Amazingly, he'd been picked to go to the TriWizard Tournament, as one of Durmstrang's three representatives. His big sister had done just this five years ago, but this time it seemed almost more frightening. Last time about 7 or 8 people went, this time it was only three. And he was the youngest, having only just turned seventeen. Still, Sergei was proud of himself for having the honour of attending the TriWizard Tournament. Even if he didn't get picked as Champion, even being asked to go was a great honour in itself. There were no other sixth years going, and that was definately something. He'd kind of wanted Seraphina to come along, so he'd have a friend with him, but it couldn't be helped. Moko was there, and she was a force to be reckoned with. Sergei suspected she'd be picked as Champion, and although he wanted it for himself, Moko was quite probably the best choice for Durmstrang Champion, and he would not be disappointed if she got it. Aaliyah, on the other hand, Sergei barely knew, but maybe he'd get to know her better this year.

As the boat surfaced, Sergei's eyes widened in awe as he saw where they'd be for the better part of the next year. Beauxbatons. It was beautiful. A beautiful place filled with beautiful girls, so he'd heard. Sergei grinned. Even if he wasn't picked as Champion, this next year was sure to be a great one.

 

[Moko Craven]

Morrigan moved silently about the ship not speaking to the other two chosen, her head was very much wrapped up in a thousand and one other things. She felt beyond grateful that she had been chosen as one of the three to attend but had she done this for all of the right reasons. Boy troubles was surely not a viable issue for wanting to risk life and limb at the TriWizard Tournament. Yet the school obviously thought she was a worthy contender. A sardonice smile spread across her beautiful mouth, of course she was a worthy contender she had been born for this could almost feel it in her very soul.

She came upon Sergei and smiled at him, it was about time she was at least polite. The three students would be representing their school after all. The boat effortlessly lifted itself up and out of the water and suddenly she was beaming. Touching his back gently she laughed running on wards.

"Come on lets get on deck and check it out properly" glad that their long fur lined robes would not be needed here Moko walked out into the sunlight and watched the amazing sight of Beauxbatons academy loom before them. It was like something in a fairy tale. The adventure was beginning.

 

[Aaliyah Olaf]

Li was standing at the edge of the durmstrang ship as it surfaced. They would soon be there then. She was both nervous and excited to have be chosen as one of the three possible champions for the twriwizard tournament. However she was chosing not to show it, her durmstrang robes waving in the light breeze.
Her fellow durmstrang's who were going with her where Moko, whom she recognised briefly from one of her lessons, talthough had never spoken before, and Sergei, who she'd never even heard of before today.
She stopped staring out over the ship and went to find the others. She nodded and she found and passed them. "Hey" she smiled and stood beside them. They were coming up close to beauxbatons. They would be arriving soon. Li had never had a chance to show anyone what she was made of. She hoped she could now, even if she wasn't chosen. The thought of why she had been picked as one of these three in the first place ran through her head many times. She was grateful just to be here. If she got through, she would put everything she had into it. What did she have to loose?
She turned to smile when Moko laughed. "Don't like you can run off and explore without me" she called, as much at interest as anyone would be at exploring the school she'd always considered to be the most graceful, elegant, and beautiful.
