Episode 16- Hope and Glory

- May I have your attention please.

It was Michael Dumbledore, director of Melodihogwarts and a living pop legend.  It was not necessary to say what he said.  Everyone in the room remained in silence.

- Ladies and gentlemen, I have the pleasure to announce the beginning of a new edition of Melodihogwarts Tournament.  


- In a few minutes the international delegations will come with their champions and the musical battle will begin.  But for the new students I’ll talk a little bit more about the Melodihogwarts Tournament.

Every year, a champion is selected from the most important schools of the whole Europe.  The champion will take the coup and all the eternal glory of being recognized as one of the best artists in the continent and will also be awarded with a music contract and a sign in the walk of fame.

Tonight, the champions will arrive but before the battle begin we’ll made our international selection. 

All the students have the right to participate but only a brave artist will win the Melodihogwarts tournament so beware before you decide to join because the fight to be the number one European artist will be hard and some of you may not be able to come to the end.

Owww- Director Michael Dumbledore screamed with excitement making one of his classic pop movements

Eric Potter felt like he was daydreaming.

Some people around him gave him advices, some others took his shoulder.

- Potter will you be a candidate for Melodihogwarts!

- Of course he will.  He is Made of Pop

But on the other side of the table, there was as much expectation as on Eric’s house.

A blond handsome boy smiled with confidence.

- Of course, where do I have to sign- Danny replied to one of his friends.  - I am going to participate on Melodifestivalen and I will erase that stupid smile on Erc Potter’s face.

Erik and Mattias laughed so hard at Danny’s sentence

- I am going to participate- Eric Potter suddenly said

- But

- All the boys and girls that want to participate on our internal selection have to put their names into consideration in this calyx- Professor Dumbledore announced showing a magnificent goblet that was put in the middle of the dining room.

In the calyx base it reads: “Fredrik Kempe’s honorific goblet”.

- Are you conscious of all the risks you have to take Eric Potter?- Alexander whispered to him. - This is not a kids game.  You have to be wise and cautious to win the competition or at least to survive.  You have to be... like me.

Eric wanted to laugh but he couldn’t.  It was something serious to laugh about it.

- I know it’s dangerous. If you fail you could not live to tell.  But if you win, you take all the hope and glory.  And I won’t let Danny take it from me!
