Pheobe turned back for a look. It was the fourth Champion in this competition...
Harry Potter... somehow using some magical gizmo, had now become Hally Potter...
"Why didn't you dry yourself off?" Kayson speechlessly tossed his coat from the side to Hally, telling her to wrap herself in it first. Then he snapped his fingers, and the fireplace beside them suddenly roared to life.

Your teacher... is borrowing the two of you!
