The Other Chosen One (Harry Potter x Reader)

4th year: Chapter 22 2nd task

~February 24 1995~

It was the day of the 2nd task around 9:00 and it was going to began in few minutes

Fred and George we're yelling at people for them to bye their stuff but nobody paid attention to them

Harry and Neville were walking to the black lake ready for the task to begin "Are you sure about this Neville?" asked Harry as Neville gave him the gillyweed

"Absolutely" said Neville putting his hand back on his pocket "For an hour?" Harry asked

"Most likely" said Neville not making eye contact with Harry "Most likely!" said Harry worried

"Well there is some debate among herbologist on the effects of fresh water vs salt water" said Neville

"Your telling me this now, you must be joking!" said Harry whisper shouting at him

I- I just wanted to help..." said Neville having trouble speaking while having a sad face

"Well that make you right like Ron and Hermione. Where are they anyway?" Harry asked while looking around

"You seem a little tense Harry" said Neville looking at Harry's face "Do I?"

~20 minutes later~

Everyone was at the stands on the black lake waiting for the task to finally begin

While people were cheering on who they were going for. The Champions got ready to go in the water

"Welcome to the 2nd task" Dumbledore begin to announce "Last night something was stolen from our champions, a treasure source"

"These 4 treasures, one for each champion now lay on the bottom of the black lake"

"In order to win, each champion needs to find their treasure and return to the surface. Simple enough"

"Put that in your mouth" said Moody dragging Harry to the front. Harry put the gillyweed in his mouth

"Except for this they would have one hour to do so and one hour only" Dumbledore gave all the instructions

As Harry swallowed the gillyweed. Harry seemed to chok on it or wanted to spit it out

While Harry was having trouble everyone else raised their hand. Moody hit him on the back for Harry to stop choking

The cannon was released. Everyone dived into the water but Harry was still on the surface so Moody pushed Harry into the water

The gillyweed was penetrating his body able to start the effects allowing Harry to breathe under water

"What's the matter with him?" Seamus asked Dean who was right next to him "I don't know, I can't see him" said Dean

Neville who was behind them, hearing their conversation. He turned around putting his hands on his head "𝘖𝘩 𝘮𝘺 𝘨𝘰𝘥, 𝘐'𝘷𝘦 𝘬𝘪𝘭𝘭𝘦𝘥 𝘏𝘢𝘳𝘳𝘺 𝘗𝘰𝘵𝘵𝘦𝘳"

Harry then came up from the water and did a backflip "Yeah!!!" Harry shouted of excitement

People cheered for him and Seamus and Dean were laughing. Neville turned around confused on why they were laughing

Everyone was trying to look for their treasure. Fleur was looking around but she heard noises

She looked back but saw nothing

As then Fleur looked back in front, she was dragged down to the bottom

She screamed throughout her bubble- head charm. Time was running out for everyone
