A month had passed and it was time for the final round of the Triwizard Tournament and everyone was sitting on the bleachers, cheering for the competitors. While Hermione, Ron, and Greta were trying to find a spot to sit, Greta saw Draco waving excitedly at her from a few rows away. Greta waved back eagerly, a wide smile on her face.
"Who're you waving to?" Ron asked.
"Uh, just that third year I was talking about," Greta lied.
"ATTENTION ALL STUDENTS!!" Dumbledore spoke through a magical megaphone. Greta, Ron, and Hermione all sat down on the bleachers. "WHO'S READY FOR THE FINAL CHALLENGE OF THE TRIWIZARD TOURNAMENT??"
Everyone cheered loudly.
"NOW, IT'S TIME TO MEET OUR COMPETITORS: VIKTOR KRUM, FLEUR DELACOUR, CEDRIC DIGGORY, AND HARRY POTTER!!"
More cheering followed. Greta clapped and cheered for Cedric and Harry. All four competitors stepped out onto the field and waved at the crowd. In front of them stood a humongous labyrinth that towered over everyone. The competitors stood next to each other on a white line near the entrance to the labyrinth and waited for permission to go.
"ON YOUR MARKS, GET SET… GO!!"
The four dashed into the labyrinth as quickly as they could. The crowd went wild. Then, a giant screen with a map of the labyrinth popped up in front of the crowd. Pictures of the competitors were moving in all sorts of directions. A few minutes had passed, but Viktor and Fleur weren't doing so well. Turns out the labyrinth was alive and it trapped the two in certain spots on the map. Luckily, Harry and Cedric were in the lead.
A half an hour had passed now and it appeared that Harry was in the lead with Cedric at second. Then, the map showed Harry and Cedric neck to neck, getting extremely close to the Triwizard cup. When both had reached it, their pictures disappeared, which seemed a little bit suspicious.
"Hey, where did their pictures go?" Greta asked Hermione. "They just… disappeared."
"I'm not too sure myself," Hermione said looking bewildered.
"Something about this doesn't seem right," Ron added. "Let's wait and see what happens.
Everyone in the crowd waited quietly with no way of knowing what would happen next.
Several suspenseful minutes passed until Harry and Cedric appeared in front of the crowd. While everyone cheered, Greta sensed that something wasn't right. Cedric was laying on the grass very still and Harry was leaning over him, panicking. Harry was hitting Cedric's chest and calling out his name. Then it hit Greta.
Cedric was dead.
Greta clutched her chest and started to hyperventilate. She stood up and ran away from the stadium.
"Greta, where are you going?" Hermione yelled.
Greta didn't listen to Hermione and kept running until she reached a tree to hide behind. Still clutching her chest, Greta's vision became blurry as her eyes filled themselves with tears of grief. Her stomach began to feel nauseated and she started to take short, small breaths as she silently cried. Greta was panicking severely and her head ringed.
Suddenly, she felt a gentle hand on her shoulder. "Hey, are you ok?"
Greta jumped and turned her head to face Draco. She shook her head and whimpered. More tears fell.
"Why're you crying? Did something happen in there?" Draco questioned with concern.
"He's dead," Greta stated bluntly. "Cedric's dead."
"How can you tell?"
"I just can. The way Harry leaned over him, how still Cedric was, and how panicked Harry looked. He's dead, Draco!"
