章 362: Weighing wands?
Reima continues to search the school for Rita Skeeta but frowns we he sees a large contingent enter the school, he can see Ludo Bagman, Barty Crouch, Rita Skeeter and Ollivander all come in with a few other people he doesn't know... Probably just camera men and miscellaneous staff.
Reima frowns as he was hoping to catch Rita snooping as quickly as possible but it seems unlikely that he'll achieve his goals today, as he's got an hour to kill since he skipped his last lesson he goes to the room of requirements and starts reading a book detailing the wizarding worlds apparition.
Ciri was currently in potions and funnily enough was partnered with Harry Potter when a third year with blonde hair and a strange resemblance to a hamster hesitantly approaches Professor Snape.
Colin "Er, sir. I need to take Harry Potter and Ciri Rivia-"
Snape "They still have a potion to finish Mr. Creevey, I suggest you come back another time." he slowly retorts.
Colin "But sir! It's for the tournament!"
The bat faced man scowls at him, "Very well, Miss Rivia, make sure our celebrity here does not get lost. It would be a travesty if that were to happen." he says, turning to the rest of the students to continue "Teaching"
Ciri shrugs at Harry and collects her staff along with Snuffles before beginning to follow the young third year.
They walk for a while but are blinded by a flash of light, Harry would assume it as Colin but his presence next to them dissuades him of that idea. When his vision clears up he sees a women with golden glasses, white hair and a neon green dress adorned with fur.
"I'm Rita Skeeter from the Daily Prophet, pleasure to meet you both, though I see you're fraternising with the enemy Harry, perhaps you could tell me more in a moment?" she says with a toothy smile.
Ciri has a look of realisation and exclaims, "Ah! You're that bitch writing lies about us!" Harry hearing this loses his polite expression in exchange for a dark one.
Rita looks surprised but quickly returns her face to a neutral expression, "Now, now... Bitch is a harsh word, I prefer "Dedicated journalist with incredible work ethics"... For short."
Harry "I doubt any part of that is true" he says dully to the overeager looking journalist.
Rita ignores him and continues, "We have a bit before the weighing of the wands ceremony, which one of you would like to be interviewed first?"
...
Ciri "Neither?"
Rita grins and glances at the camera, "Now, why wouldn't two of the most popular people in britain right now not want to talk to the press?" A green quill behind her scribbles away on a floating parchment. "Is there something you're not telling the public? Perhaps something between the two of you?" she asks.
Ciri frowns and prods the staff at the woman, "I don't want to talk to you and neither does Harry, with the slanderous things you've said in the past did you really think we'd give you an interview? Not likely." She says, gesturing to Colin to continue to lead them to where they need to be.
Rita frowns at this and grabs Harry's elbow in an attempt to stop him from leaving, "Come on Harry, the people want to know!"
Harry "Let go of me you creepy trollop." he says loud enough to get her to let go.
Rita growls to herself and shouts after them, "You can't hide anything from me! The people will know!" She looks at her camera man and asks, "You got the cover?" which she receives a nod for.
Ciri and Harry are led into and empty classroom containing Ludo Bagman and a number of camera men. Sitting at the side of the room conversing was Victor Krum and Fleur Delacour, the former turning his attention onto Ciri yet again with a glint of interest in his eyes.
Ludo "Harry!" he exclaims, walking over and patting him on the shoulder. "Remember me from the Quidditch World Cup? You had a wonderful time from my recollection!"
...
Harry "Sir... I was nearly tortured into a cripple.." he says uncomfortably which causes Ludo's face to pale.
Ludo "Ah, apologies. I had forgotten about all that bad business... On another matter we are still waiting on the daily prophets reporter and Dumbledore with the expert."
Ciri "Wait... Did you just say Daily Prophet?"
Harry rubs his face and begins, "Oh, please no-"
*Flash!*
Rita steps in after the smoke from the camera had cleared with a wide smile, "Oh yes. My, all you champions look absolutely delectable..."
Ludo "This is Rita Skeeter, a prominant journalist from the Daily Prophet. She's here to run a small story on the events."
Rita scoffs, "Small, Ludo? No, I intend for this to be the highlight of my career and probably your own." she says looking at each of the champions. "Would it trouble you if I were to interview Harry briefly?" she asks Bagman.
Ludo "Oh, that see-"
Harry "No, I told you last time that I won't give you an interview."
Ludo "-Seems inappropriate" he quickly changes his answer after hearing Harry's objection which causes Rita to frown momentarily.

Niggross Hopefully Rita's character is as annoying as she's portrayed in the books and movies.
As always, if I missed anything please let me know.
