Standing Alone

Part 13

Harry's final challenge was coming up and he was more skittish. He didn't want to talk about it and I respected his decision.

"Ready Holly?" Ginny asked as we get ready to leave

"Not even a little" I admit

We head down to the quidditch field to watch the final task. We sit with Ron and Hermione. I have Ginny's hand and Hermione's hand. Sitting here I was becoming severely overwhelmed with anxiety and this building fear that something bad was happening.

Dumbledore leads the champions out onto the field. I couldn't focus on the task I just watched over Harry. I suddenly felt like I had been here before. My hands begin to shake.

As Harry enters the maze, I notice Moody leave, he was shaking and taking a shot from his flask again. Then it hits me like a train.

Polyjuice potion. Of course! He wasn't Moody at all, whomever he was he put Harry's name in the cup and has been keeping him alive.

"I'll be back" I tell Hermione and Ginny

I slip away and follow the false Moody. He leads me away from the crowd.

"I was hoping you'd follow me" he says smirking

I didn't say anything and before I could do anything, I'm in a cemetery.

I'm alone and scared. I looked around and realize that I have been here before in my nightmares. I quickly hide behind a gravestone and remain completely still. I try and keep myself calm.

Then I hear a crack and see Harry and Cedric. I remain hidden.

I notice Harry recognize the Cemetry.

"I've been here before" I hear him say

"Someone's coming! Stand Back!" Cedric yells to Harry

"No, Cedric!" Harry screams and I see a flash of green

I cover my mouth to keep silent and let the tears fall.

"CEDRIC!" Harry cries

"Do it now!" I hear a raspy voice command

I stay behind the headstone completely still and silent. I didn't know what to think or even what to feel.

"Little girl, where are you?" Peter calls for me

"I need you Holly!" He calls more

I try hard to remain hidden from him but he finds me and drags me from my hiding spot. Peter traps me up next to Harry.

Peter starts to perform some sort of ritual. I cringe when he cuts of his hand.

Then he cuts Harry's arm and drops in the blood, he come up and does the same to me

Both Harry and I are screaming in agony and anger. The cauldron boils and bubbles and soon a skeleton of a man emerges. He looks slimy like a snake; he even appears to glide when he walks.

"My wand Worm tail." he hisses

Voldemort grabs Peter's arm and presses the wand on the dark mark. Within seconds dark figures circle around the snake.

Harry and I look at each other and realize the danger that we've witnessed.

Neither of us really paying attention to the snake who murdered our parents. It wasn't until Voldemort put his foot on Cedric when Harry shouted for him to leave him alone.

"Ah Harry and Holly" he hisses at us

He looks at me with a devilish gleam.

"Holly Potter as beautiful as your muggle mother." he hisses
