Ludo Bagman shouts excitedly as he watches this all happen, "OH MERLIN! HE JUST SHOT THE SWORD AT THE DRAGON!" the sword clanks loudly off of it's scales but not before piercing a couple inches and drawing a thick droplet of crimson blood. "I DON'T KNOW WHAT POTTER WAS AIMING FOR BUT IT SEEMS TO HAVE FAILED! Now he's only angered the dragon!" he shouts, thanking Merlin that he'd not bet on Harry when given the chance.
Harry himself threw his fist in the air when he saw that he had actually drawn blood but quickly had to duck into cover as a stream of searing flames flew over his head, courtesy of the furious dragon. Now that he'd managed to injure the dragon all he had to do was wait for the venom to do it's work, hopefully it'd be effective against dragons and work fast enough for him to escape being crushed.
The Swedish Shortsnout quickly climbs up to the rocky area where Harry had previously been and pokes it's head over to spot the ant that'd attacked it. It sees nothing and it shoots flames from it's nostrals in anger. It quickly turns it's attention towards it's eggs and walks over to protect them but... It's movements starts becoming sluggish... It tries to lift it's front arm to continue moving but finds it unable to, this continues to spread until it falls face first onto the floor, not being able to move at all.
Ludo "MERLIN! HARRY POTTER MUST HAVE POISONED IT! I HAVE NEVER HEARD OF POISON THAT CAN EFFECT A DRAGON! MARVELLOUS!" He shouts excitedly as the dragon closes it's eyes and ceases to breathe.
Harrry pokes his head up from cover and throws a rock at the large beast to see if it's still awake... It doesn't move which gives him the confidence to run forwards and collect the golden egg, he grabs it and raises it into towards the sky while the crowd roars with excitement. Ludo "HE'S DONE IT, THE FIRST CHAMPION HAS PASSED! Oh! What is this? The dragon handlers are rushing to the Swedish Shortsnout!" he quickly says.
Harry's almost knocked off of his feat by Charlie Weasley as the young man tries to attend to the dragon, he feels around it's neck and chest with a grim look before fiercely looking at Harry.
Charlie "You've killed her!"
Ludo hears this and screams, "Harry Potter as slain the dragon! SOME ONE SO YOUNG HAS NEVER DONE THIS BEFORE!"
Harry shrugs to Charlie who's glaring at him, "It was me or it Charlie! I'm sure you would love to see your beloved Dragon tear me apart but I'm not so weak as to let that happen!" he shouts, accio's the sword of Gryffindor and briskly walks towards the exit, almost being pounced on by Madam Pomfrey who quickly goes about and starts checking various things on his body.
Harry "Pomfrey the dragon never even touched me!" he exclaims to try and escape the woman's "Tender care".
Pomfrey "Nonsense! I will check you over as many times as I can before I am satisfied with your health!"
Harry can only grumble excuses while we makes him drink a couple of nasty tasting potions, eventually he's spared from any more and he's almost tackled by a brown blur.
Harry "H-ermi-one! Let-me-breathe!" after choking this out his best friend reluctantly releases him from the tight hug.
Hermione "You did so well Harry! You might even be in first place after that!" she says quickly, never releasing her grip from him.
Harry "Thanks, but I doubt I would have gotten through this without Reima, or you." he says with a smile. This only causes her to pounce on him yet again, except this time with a few kisses to his cheeks by the flushed Hermione.
Reima still sits in the audience while Hermione "comforts" Harry, he felt no need to cockblock him after such a good showing, plus he was still waiting for when Ciri would be showing. He was happy the sword in his hands would finally see some use as he never really used it in all his years in Lordran.
*BANG!*
Ludo "Let's see out next champion!" he shouts after hearing the cannon go again, a large green dragon is released and curls itself around it's eggs protectively.
Fleur Delacour walks in timidly at first but when she hears the cheers of the audience her back straightens, her gaze travels over the audience until she spots Reima, she smiles at him before turning her attention to the task at hand. She walks up to the highest point in the stadium and looks over where the green dragon is, as soon as she spots it she ducks low in attempt to evade it's notice. Once hidden she points her wand to her throat to amplify her voice and starts singing.
Ludo "Woaah! Miss Delacour wishes to soothe the Dragon! I have no idea if this will work but if it does it could gain her a great advantage over the other champions!" His voice rumbles over her soothing song but doesn't disrupt it, Fleurs brows furrow slightly as Ludo's voice almost ruins her plan but she continues nevertheless.
Soon people in the audiance start to fall asleep, starting with the magically weak ones then moving towards the ones who are not guarded against it. Ludo manages to keep his eyes open for a few minutes but eventually succumbs to the song, as it happens, the Green Dragon yawns, feeling less threatened as the sound of the audience slowly fades away as more and more people fall asleep.
Reima himself isn't even slightly affected and continues to watch on with interest in how this spell works.
Suddenly her voice halts and the girl quickly sneaks towards the dragon, grabbing it and slowly walking away. She glances up at Reima and sends a smug smile, not noticing the dragon snoring next to her feet. Flames burst from it's nose lighting her trousers on fire and causing her to quickly pat them out, luckily without waking the dragon.
