Part 25: Task 3

>EDITED<

A few weeks have past and the third and finally task, can I just say I'm about to faint from nervousness. I pace in the common room waiting for Hermione to arrive so we can go to the arena.

It's an understatement to say I'm scare, I'm SERIOUSLY SCARED. How am I going to cope if one of them dies?! I love them all so freaking much!!

Hermione arrived and pulled me into a hug "They'll be fine, they have all trained hard and well for this." She soothed me while tears filled my cheeks.

I literally dragged Hermione to the stands where we would be watching them nervously.

I tap my feet on the floor and start biting my lip. Then I hear it, the hissing. Nagini. But how can I hear him, he is alive?

I gasp as the pain shots through my scar but when I see the four competitors I notice Harry is fine. Voldemort is targeting me. But why?

I know why! He wants me again! No way in hell !!

**

I don't know how long it's been since they entered but it feels like centuries. While I sit here nervously looking out at the long maze that stretches further than I can see.

I'm scared to think what is in the horrid misty darkness that takes over thee air of the maze. I let in a deep breath before calmly breathing out, I'm so nervous that I haven't spoken this whole time.

Red sparks were shot into the air a while ago which sent me into a panic frenzy. But it was only Fleur but apparently Harry sent them up.

I felt a whirring sound in my head and everything started changing. The buzzing sound of the crowd started fading and I saw grave stones.

What's happening? I'm confused. Suddenly a cold gust of wind flew up my top. I'm in a completely different place.

I instantly thought of the best thing to do, but stupid but oh well. Deal with it! I felt my bones shrink and crack, feather grew out of my skin and a beak grew from where my nose was.

In a matter of seconds I was in my owl form. I flew behind a gravestone for safety and instantly felt relief fly threw me but it was soon gone.

Where am I? How the hell did I get here? This really isn't funny. Is this a joke because I don't think it's a good one!!! Could this be Fred and George messing with my mind?

Suddenly a thud was heard from the other side of the gravestone. I changed into my human form and held my jumper close to me.

"It's a port key." A familiar voice said, Cedric. Suddenly a pain struck through my scar making me hiss in agony, I stood up and noticed it was happening to Harry as well.

I grabbed Cedric and pulled him behind a gravestone, Harry is trapped by - no. It can't be. Wormtail. Oh I'll kill him, he will die.

My blood boiled and I felt anger shoot through my body. "What the hell are you doing here Lott?" Cedric whispered to me.

I glared at him because he is being loud "I don't know!" I whispered back feeling annoyed, who brought me here. I looked over the gravestone to see Wormtail cut off his own hand.

I gasped and Cedrics hand clamped over my mouth "shhh!" He whispered. I guess Wormtail must of been in too much pain because he didn't capture us.

Wormtail is speaking to Harry but o can't hear him. "So," I whisper to Cedric "Got a girlfriend to worry about yet?" I asked with a wink, I'm just trying to take my mind off Wormtail.

"It's more of a crush," he said fiddling with his fingers "but I have to worry about her all the time." I raised an eyebrow at him.

"Do I get to meet your crush?" I asked wiggling my eyebrows making him silently chuckle, his chuckle is super cute. "You already have." He replied with a smirk.

"Have I?" I asked and furrowed my eye brows in confusion. Who could it be?

"Luna?"

"No." Oh.

"Ginny?"

"No." Damn.

"Hermione?"

"No. Close." Grrr.

"Me?"

"Yes."

"Padma? Parvati-"

Wait what!? I stopped when it finally processes though my brain, he has a crush on ME?! Oh god, I have a huge crush on him.

"I have a crush on you too." I say quieter then I was meant too. He smiled at me "Then you won't mind if I do this." He said shuffling to me.

His lips met mine and before I can even process what I'm doing, I kiss him back. We pull away breathless "lovely place for a kiss." I said with sarcasm.

He chuckled silently, he wrapped his arm around me and pulled me closer. "Something's happening!" He said hurriedly.

I shot up and looked at where Wormtail is whimpering, Harry is trapped and all I want to do is save him. He is my brother!

Suddenly a black sort of blob cloudy thing came from the cauldron, which disappeared leaving this disgusting looking creature floating in mid air.

It made my stomach flip, I instantly felt like throwing up. Me and Cedric made sure no one could see us behind the gravestones. We watched curiously but I can feel myself shake in fright.

"This isn't good!" I said as a tear escapes my eye. The creature in black starts growing and I know who it is. This is going to be scarier than I expected.

I looked back to Harry who was desperately trying to get out of the stick around his neck. I felt angry but I'm way too scared to go help him.

I mean the last thing I heard of Wormtail is that he is working for You-Know-Who. If that's true than he is dangerous and could kill me in a matter of seconds.

"Do you know what's happening Little Lott?" Cedric asked with worry laced in his voice, I love how he can call me by my nickname at a time like this.

The black bundle becoming clearer and I let out a quiet gasp. I turn to Cedric with tears staining my cheeks, this can't be happening.

He brushed my cheek with his hand before looking at me directly in the eye. "Voldemort is back." I whispered.

Hope you enjoy this chapter! But of drama. But come on, that is cute with her and Cedric even though they are in a graveyard.

Sorry I haven't updated sooner, I've had writers block. Which is annoying and super frustrating.

I will update again soon.

Also I wanted you to send me some story covers for this book because I don't like the one it has. I'll pick one and make it the new story cover.

I'd love for you to do this for me because you mean everything to me <3
