First Task
The day of the First task came sooner than they expected. Did they have any clue as to what they were facing? Nope! Apparently the judges were tight lipped about it. And Henrique was not happy, how were they supposed to prepare for the task, if they DIDN'T KNOW WHAT THE TASK WAS! Stupid British Wizards!
They were again sitting at the Great Hall, having Breakfast when the Headmistres Helena walked up to them. " Καλημέρα χρυσά μου" *Good Morning my dears*. "Καλημέρα Διευθύντρια" *Good Morning Headmistress*. She smiled at her students and turned her eyes to her Champion. " Henrique dear. After breakfast there is going to be a meeting, you should attent, of course your partners and friends are welcome to come. It's going to be a surpise" She said winking and then left, leaving them all confused.
Once finished with their breakfast, they followed the Headmistress. They ended up walking into a room and Henrique was attacked by a bunch of tiny missiles. He ended up falling on the ground laughing while holding his siblings "I've missed you guys so much!" he was sqeezing them. Valentino chuckled at the image his children made, piled up on top of eachother on the floor..... Death! They all grew up so fast! " Alright, alright Figli, basta, perché non lasciate respirare vostro fratello?" *Children, enough, why don't you let your brother breathe?*
They got out of the pile and Valentino finally got to hug his eldest "My Little Emerald! I'm so proud of you! I've missed you so much!" Henrique was holding his dad and burried his head on his chest. "Papaa! I'm not little anymore! I'm fifteen!" he wined and that made Valentino sqeeze harder "Only fifteen, you are so young!!!" it was starting to get uncomfortable, until he felt hands slowly draging him away "Val love, you are suffocating him. Hello Cub, I've missed you".
Henrique jumped on the werewolf "MOOMY!!! I've missed you so much" Remus chuckled, during the years in Italy his children resorted into calling him Moomy, ( he blames Sirius for that). Padfoot has turned into Dadfoot and Valentino is Papa. Well at least it works. Sudently he felt Henrique leaving his arms "Come on Moony you're hogging the Pup!" He laughed as Sirius literally lifted poor Henrique off the ground. "Dadfoot!!! Put me down, that's embarassing." Sirius chuckled and let him down. Henrique turned araound to find his uncles there smilling at him "Papa.... did you bring the entire Famillia?" he asked as he huged all his uncles. Valentino noded. He didn't bring them simply because they wanted to see his son, but for extra protection as always. He, his husbands and his children were all exposed here, and he'll be damned if he didn't bring his best with him!
"Well.... Those are a few faces I've never thought I'd see again. Mister Black, Mister Lupin!" Sirius and Remus turned around to face their old Head of House. "Minnie!!" Minerva scolded at him. "You have some explanations to give Sirius and so do you Remus!". Henrique shook his head and let those two deal with the Professor, he took his Papa's hand and pulled him on the side.
"Papà, dobbiamo parlare" *Papa, we need to talk*
"Cosa c'è che non va Mio piccolo smeraldo?" *What's wrong My little emerald?*
"Ti ricordi il mio amico Blaise?" * Do you remember my friend blaise?*
"Mi stai chiedendo se mi ricordo del traditore che si è approfittato di te e ha quasi ucciso me e tuo padre?!" *You're asking me if I remeber the traitor that took advantage of you and almost killed me and your dad?*
"Sì. Ascolta, so chelo odi, e ne hai tutto il diritto. Ma no sai tutta la historia Papa! Per favore ascolta" *Yes. Listen I know you hate him, and you have every right to. But you don't know the whole story Papa! Just please listen*
"Non era lui. Era suo padre! Fu lui a dare le informazioni, che prese dalla mente di Blaise. Lo so perché me l'ha detto e Padre Morte lo ha confermato!" *It wasn't him. It was his father! It was he who gave the information, which he took from Blaise's mind. I know because he told me and Father Death confirmed it!*
Valentino looked at his son and shighed. "Alright my little Emerald. I trust you and I'll let it go...for now. We will continue this conversation and you will explain everything. Furthermore if he betrays you again, he won't get another chance Capisce?" Henrique noded. "Alright, now let's go save your dads from who I understand is Minnie". They both chuckled and walked towards the woman who was yelling at his husbands.
"Now what did the two of you did this time?" Sirius grined and wraped his hand around Valentino and his other around Henrique. "Minnie, meet our husband Don Valentino De Castella and our oldest son Henrique!" Minerva just stood there wondering if she heared correctly. Valentino chuckled "Love, maybe you should let me do the introductions" he said as he took Minerva's hand and kissed her knuckles "My lady. As my husband said I'm Don Valentino De Castella, it is an honor to meet you. Allow me to introduce my family. You of course know my husbands." He said as he pointed at Remus and Sirius. "And these are my wonderful children. This is My eldest, My Firstborn Henrique" he again gestured at the older boy. "This is our second oldest Regulus" he said pointing at the raven haired boy who smiled. Making Minerva blink. "These are our mischief maker twins. Kronos and Ares" he said as he put a hand on each boy's head. "These are our second set of twins. My troublemaker Hades. And My wonderfull and smart Princess Estella" He said as he again pointed at each child
"And finally these are the Princesses of the family. Veronica" he said lifting up a young girl. "And our youngest, Celena" looking at the young toddler who was hidding behind Sirius's feet. Minerva looked at the children and smiled "Merlin, who would have thought that you would end up with that amound of children. Don De Castella are you sure it is wise to have these two troublemakers around young minds?" she asked with a full smile on her face. Valentino chuckled "Ma'am I've been wondering the same thing for years. And please call me Valentino, you are like a mother to my husbands."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The time for the first task came, but there still was no clue on what they were going to face. So yes Henrique was angry, Valentino was hyperactive. His siblings were oblivious, thank Death. His girlfriend was attached to his hand with a death grip and his boyfriend was growling and curssing left and right, very colorfully I might add, about what he was going to do to those wizards. Sirius was squeezing the life out of him and his sibling,s and Remus was assisting Sandiago on where he could hide the bodies.
"Champions, please enter the tent in order for the task to begin. The audience please find your seats at the spectator area". Valentino hugged his son and wished him good luck. Beatrice kissed him good luck and so did Sandiago, with a promise that if he died he would bring him back so he could kill him again. Sirius hugged him and ruffled his hair and Remus told him they would be watching and to kick ass.
He endered the tend to find the rest of the Champions with their respective Headmasters. Then Ludo Bagman, Barty Crouch Sr and unfortunatelly Rita skeeter endered the tent. "Hello, hello and welcome to the first task. Now in this pouch would be your opponent. Meaning who you'll have to face. Now let's begin! Miss Delacur if you please".
Fleur put her hand into the pouch and pulled out a dragon. A FUCKING DRAGON! DEATH GIVE HIM STRENGTH!!. Carmen Ferra followed and pulled out another dragon and so did everyone else, until it was Henrique's turn and pulled out again a Dragon.
Fleur was going to face: A Common Welsh Green
Viktor was going to face: A Chinese Fireball
Cedric was going to face: A Sweedish short-snout
Carmen was going to face: A Ukrainian Ironbelly
Eleonora was going to face: A Hebridean Black
Henrique was going to face : A Hungarian Horntail. And he was not happy, not at all.Especially as this reported tried to do an interview.
Rita Skeeter was dressed in her signature acid green dress. Which made Henrique's eyes water. "Con la Morte. Cosa indossa quella donna? Cosa e' questo? Questa cagna è reale? Ti rilascio un'intervista di due parole. Vaffanculo stronza. Chi cazzo l'ha fatta entrare qui?Penso di essere cieco!" *By Death. What is that woman wearing? What is this? Is this bitch for real? I'll give you an interview two words. Fuck you bitch. Who the fuck let her in here? I think I'm blind*. Rita kept trying to have an interview, but thanfully the task was about to start, so the dreadfull woman had to leave....for now.
His time to face his dragon, came quicker than he expected.... or wanted. He took a deep breath and walked into the arena, to come face to face with a very angry NESTING MOTHER. Before he could even react he was engulfed in flames.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Up in the audience Valentino sreamed and tried to jump over the protective fence. Remus was snarling and his eyes were glowing, Moony was ready to come out and play. Sirius grabbed all of his children to stay grounded. Beatrice was crying in Sandiago's arms and he was trying to stay strong. Then they saw it.
Behind the fire was a big black globe, and out of the globe came Henrique unscarred. He. Was. Angry. He was partially transformed into his reaper form. His eyes were glowing green and his hands had turned black and ended into big sharp talons. "YOU DID NOT JUST SPAT FIRE AT ME YOU FUCKING FOUR LEGGED LETHER BAG!!" He screamed and that took the dragon by surprise. He lifted his right hand and shadows started forming into a giant whip. He swung it at the dragon, who took a step back. But it wasn't enough, as the whip wrapped around the dragon pinning it down. Henrique put his palm on the gound and whispered a spell "Petra montibus".
Giant rock colons started forming all around the arena. Henrique jumbed on one and made his way towards the nest. The dragon managed to untaggled herself and tried to attack, only for her victim to vanish. The dragon tried to smell the intruder, but nothing. Henrique had cloacked himself with his shadows and he was now invisible.
He climbed up at the nest and removed his spell. He grabed the golden egg and yelled to get the dragon's attention "Oi! You furnace with wings! You're looking for me?" he said as he jogged the golden egg with his hands. The dragon saw him and roared. Henrique rolled his eyes and jumbed on top of the drago's head.
Valentino was sure he was having a heart attack and had to be supported by Giuseppe and Sebastiano. Marco and Marcello were each holding a terrified child. Romeo and Guido had to try and keep Remus from jumping over and killing the beast. Segio and Nico were trying to calm Sirius down and Lord Caffaro and De Falco were also holding children.
Henrique was on top of the dragon's head, still holding the egg. So the only 'logical' thing that he could do was... blind the dragon. So he drove his foot into the Dragon's eye and then jumbed and surfed on it's back and tail. He jumbed over each colon and made it to the exit. he whistled at the dragon and bowed to the audience.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Valentino bursted into the tent and grabbed his son. "Sei radicato per sempre! Questo è tutto giovanotto! Non uscirai mai di casa! Mai più. Morte ho quasi avuto un infarto!" *You are grounded for ever! That's it young man! You are never leaving the house! Ever again. Death I almost had a heart attack!*
Henrique chuckled at his papa. And then he was hugged by a teary eyed Sirius who was again saying that he would be grounded for the rest of his life. Remus pulled him into his arms and started sniffing to make sure he was alright. Then he felt a slap on his face and a couple more on his head. "Tu stupido stronzo! Pensavo che fossi morto! Cos'è stato?! A cosa stavi pensando! Non lo eri ovviamente. Ti ucciderti!" *You stupid arsehole! I thought you died! What was that?! What were you thinking! You weren't obviously. I am going to kill you!* Beatrice kept hitting and cussing him out, until he grabbed her and kissed her.
He was again hit on the head by a very angry Sandiago. Henrique shighed. "I'm sorry?" Sandiago pulled him over and kissed him "I'm still mad at you. You stupid fuck!" he said as he hugged him. "Never do anything that stupid, do you hear me? NEVER. Or so Kronos help me I will tie you up!". Henrique laughed "Now that is kinky love!"..... That earned him another slap on the head.
"Honestly are these British Wizards insane? DRAGONS?! WHO IN DEATH'S NAME THOUGHT DRAGONS WERE A GOOD IDEA?? THESE ARE CHILDREN AND NOT ONLY THEY HAD TO FACE FUCKING DRAGONS BUT MOTHERFUCKING NESTING MOTHERS??!!" Valentino was pissed, he was going to rip whoever thout this was a good idea to pieces!
"Now Mr De Castella there is no reason for you to yell. This was pure entertainment, wasn't it?" Said the oblivious Ludo Bgman, who apparently had no self reservation. Valentino smirked and clicked his fingers. Bagman found himself on his knees infront of the man, with a dagger on his neck, a gun on his back and a wand at his chin. "First of all you spineless worm is DON De Castella. Second, you just put MY SON in danger and almost cost him, his fucking life and you have the fucking audacity to call it ' entertainment'?! Tell me, if I threw you out to face that dragon, would you survive?" Bagman was looking at the Mafia King and finally realised he fucked up.
"You know, the only reason you are still alive, is because I'm not in the mood to start a war with the British. But let me make this clear to you, your Ministry, Hello Cornelius and to the rest of the British Wizarding World. If anything happens to my son, I will make your Voldemort look like a harmless kitten. Capisce?" Bagman noded, while shaking. This man was dangerous and he just almost killed his son. Merlin help him because the next tasks would be even worse. Maybe they should just cancel the turnament. Why did he had to listen to that pink toad?!
Valentino looked at the rest of the judges and the people in the tent and locked his eyes with Dumbledore's. The Headmaster paled but noded. "Excellent! Now if you'll excuse us. Me and my famillia are going to go and celebrate the fact that you did not killed my son. Ciao!"
The family exit the tent leaving behind a few terrified wizards. A Headmaster who was wishing he never had met him and a man thinking about firing a very annoying pink toad.
