Nobodies POV

Graveyard.

Harry and Cedric have ported to a graveyard. "You ok?" Cedric ask "Yeah, you?" Harry ask

"Where are we?" Cedric ask "I've been here before." Harry says "It's a portkey. Harry the cup is a portkey." Cedric says

"I've been here before in a dream. Cedric, we have to get back to the cup? Now!" Harry demands

"What are you talking about?" Cedric ask

Harry lets out a shout and holds his head, he is in pain. "What is it?" Cedric ask "Get back to the cup!" Harry yells

We see Wormtail and Voldemort nearby.

"Who are you? What do you want?" Cedric ask, raising his wand in defence. "Kill the spare." Voldemort demands

Wormtail casts a spell and kills Cedric.

"Cedric!" Harry yells

Cedric lays dead on the ground.

Wormtail grabs Harry, a status grabs hold of Harry and traps him. "Do it, now!" Voldemort demands

Wormtail drops something into a cauldron, Harry watches on. "Bones of the father, unwillingly given." Wormtail says

A bone hovers in the air under Wormtail's control, he drops it into the cauldron. "Flesh of the servent willingly sacrificed." Voldemort says

He takes a knife and slashes his arm over the cauldron. "Blood of the enemy forcibly taken." Wormtail says

He takes the knife to Harry and cuts at his arm. Harry shouts. Wormtail takes the knife over to the cauldron and lets the drops fall into it.

"The dark lord shall rise again." Wormtail says

The cauldron bursts into flame and a reformed Voldemort emerges. "My wand Wormtail." Voldemort demands

Wormtail hands him the wand and bows deeply. "Hold out your arm." Voldemort demands

"Master. Thank you master." Wormtail says "The other arm Wormtail." Voldemort demands

Wormtail looks concerned, but does it anyway. Voldemort sticks the wand into Wormtail's arm. The sky changes, others have been summoned.

"Welcome my friends. Thirteen years it's been, and yet you stand before me as though it were only yesterday. I confess myself disappointed, not one of you tried to find me." Voldemort says

Voldemort begins slashing angrily at the hooded figures.

"Not even you, Lucius." Voldemort says

"My lord. Had I detected any sign or even a whisper of your whereabouts." Lucius says

"There were signs my friend, and more than whispers." Voldemort says

"I assure you I never renounced the old ways. The face I have been obliged to present each day since your absence, that was my true mask." Lucius says

"I returned." Wormtail says

"Out of fear, not loyalty. Still you have proved yourself useful these past few months Wormtail." Voldemort says

Voldemort grants Wormtail a new hand. "Thank you master, thank you." Wormtail says

To Cedric's corpse. "Oh, such a handsome boy." Voldemort says

"Don't touch him." Harry says

Harry struggles to get free.

"Harry! I'd almost forgotten you were here. Standing on the bones of my father. I'd introduce you but word has it you're almost as famous as me these days. The boy who lived. How lies have fed your legend Harry. Shall I reveal what really happened that night thirteen years ago? Shall I divulge how I truly lost my powers? It was love. You see when dear sweet Lily Potter gave her life for her only son she provided the ultimate protection. I could not touch you. It was old magic, something I should have forseen. But no matter, no matter. Things have changed, I can touch you now!" Voldemort yells

Voldemort puts his hand on Harry's head and he screams.

"Astonishing what a few drops of your blood will do eh Harry? Pick up your wand Potter. I said pick it up, get up. Get up! You've been taught how to duel I presume yes? First we bow to each other. Come on now Harry the niceties must be observed, Dumbledore would not want you to forget your manners now would he? I said bow!" Voldemort yells

Voldemort forces Harry to bow with magic.

"That's better. And now..." Voldemort says

Voldemort casts at Harry and he wriggles in pain.

"Atta boy Harry, your parents would be proud. Especially your filthy mongrel mother. I'm going to kill you Harry Potter, I'm going to destroy you. After tonight no one will ever again question my powers. After tonight if they speak of you they'll speak only of how you begged for death, and I being a merciful lord obliged. Get up." Voldemort demands

Voldemort pulls Harry to his feet, Harry begins to move away.

"Don't you turn your back on me Harry Potter I want you to look at me when I kill you, I want to see the lights leave your eyes." Voldemort says

Harry takes steps toward Voldemort.

"Have it your way." Harry says

They both cast and their streams of magic meet. They both struggle.

"Do nothing. He is mine to finish. He's mine!" Voldemort yells

Suddenly shapes form in the surrounding magical energy. We hear James voice.

"Harry when the connection is
broken you must get to the portkey.
We can delay it for a moment to give
you time but only a moment, do you understand?" James ask

"Harry take my body back will
you? Take my body back to my father." Cedric says

"Let go. Sweetheart you're ready. Let go! Let go!" Lily yells

The connection breaks, Harry runs over to Cedric's body and summons the cup over to them. In an instant the port out. Voldemort looks angry.

"No!" Voldemort yells
