I was breathing heavily as Hermione came back.
"Is the game starting?" Ginny asked as she tugged my cloak.
"Yes," I said as the Hufflepuff Quidditch team and the Gryffindor Quidditch team came out on the court. I could see Harry Potter biting his lip.
"Here we go," Ron Weasley muttered as Wood and Diggory shook hands. I saw Diggory give Wood a smile, but Wood merely nodded.
"GO WOOD!" Ron shouted, shooting his umbrella out.
"RON!" Hermione and Ginny yelped as Hermione pulled him down and I grabbed his umbrella and threw it to Ron.
"Git," I snapped at him.
"Sorry, Selene," Ron said still smiling. Madam Hooch's whistle blew. I could feel Ginny jump. The Gryffindor Quidditch team flung their legs around their brooms and flew.
In about three minutes, I couldn't see any players.
"What's happening?" Ginny whispered.
"I dunno," I said thickly. I heard Madam Hooch's whistle blow.
"Time out," I whispered before Ginny asked.
"I need to go," Hermione said as she saw Wood wave his lighten wand.
"I'll come with you," I said to Hermione. I handed the umbrella to Ginny. I and Hermione rushed to Wood.
"I asked for a time out!" Wood roared to his team.
"What's the score?" asked Harry.
"We're fifty points up. But unless we get the Snitch fast, we'll be playing into the night."
"I've got no chance with these on," Harry said waving his glasses.
"I thought Hermione fixed your vision," I said to him.
I pointed my wand at Harry's glasses and said, "Impervius!" I sighed in relief.
"Good," Wood said praisingly. "Okay team, let's go for it!"
I waved as Hermione and I went into the crowd.
As I sat down, the game started again.
"HARRY!" came Wood's yell from the Gryffindor goal-posts. "HARRY, LOOK BEHIND YOU!"
Hermione and I looked at each other. I saw it. Cedric Diggory was following Harry.
"HARRY!" Ron yelled as he stood up and his umbrella toppled.
"Ron!" Hermione snapped again. Suddenly, in the middle of the field, there were hoods. Ginny shrieked.
"DEMENTORS!" Hermione yelled.
"Dementors? N-no!" Ginny said as she hugged me. I saw someone move down faster than anyone on a broom. Hermione, Ron, and I stood up abruptly.
"Harry!" Hermione called, scared. I saw Diggory catch the Snitch and sighed, but he looked back at Harry. Harry's broom, twisted and hit - oh my god - the Whomping Willow. The Whomping Willow was a very violent tree that stood alone in the middle of the grounds.
Then I saw Dumbledore point his wand and say something that sounded like, "Expecto Patronum!" What looked like a phoenix burst out of his wand. The dementors seemed to expel from it. I gasped.
"Harry!" I said. "Harry! Harry fell!"
