Cedric Diggory and his father, Amos Diggory walked out from under the stands, then Victor, Fleur, Harry and Dumbledore. They walked over the the front of the maze. Then Dumbledore started to speak, "Silence! Earlier today, Professor Moody went deep into the maze and placed the Triwizard Cup there. Only he knows its exact position. Now, since Mr. Diggory and Mr. Potter, tied for the first place, they will be first." Amos took Ced's hand and raised towards the sky, Cedric looked straight at Iris with such embarrassment as he took his hand down. Iris giggled. "Then Mr. Krum will go in the maze, and then Miss Delacour. First person to touch the cup, will be declared the winner. I have instructed the staff the patrol the perimeter, if you are in trouble or hurt, you must shoot out red sparks with your wand." Dumbledore finished. Amos hugged Cedric and mouthed good luck, at least that's what Iris thought he said. The cannon went off and the band started playing, so all the champions started heading towards the maze.
Iris felt butterflies in her stomach. She felt a little too nervous for this one. Everyone started cheering as they waited for the champions. "I'm excited!! What about you guys?" Ron exclaimed. "Yeah I am very excited, just a little nervous that's all." Iris said. "Me too Iris." Hermione said.
Everyone saw red sparks emit from the maze. It was. Fleur Delacour. Iris had no clue what had happened to her, but she was glad they got her. This made her a bit more nervous for Ced. "They should have found the cup by know yer think?" Alastor Moody whispered to Dumbledore. "I would think." Dumbledore responded. Everyone was looking out in the maze to see something, all of the students were cheering and having a great time.
Iris' head raced with all of her memories of Ced. She loved him dearly. She wasn't took scared of him dying, she was just scared he would die before she got to tell him she loved him one last time or that she didn't get to give him one last kiss. Harry and Cedric arrived back.
Only, Cedric was l-laying down.
Everyone figured he was just tired because Harry was laying down with him as well. Fleur screamed. The band stopped playing. Everyone stopped cheering, and Iris ran towards him. She knew something was wrong, "C-Ced?" Iris said to him. Everything went silent. Dumbledore looked at her and said,"He's home now." Iris broke down. She felt so numb inside, she didn't know what to do. Cedric laid there, dead and cold. Iris cuddled and hugged him as she broke down. Amos was right there cupping Cedric's face screaming, "That's my son! That's my boy!" Everyone could hear the pain in their voice.
