Second Chance at Saving Them {Harry Potter}

The Quidditch Cup

Hey guys, I'm sorry about the lack of updates, my parents have been on my butt about not helping out around the house enough. But they aren't here at the moment, so I have time. Let's do this.

Chapter question (which only one person will win) is:

Who portrays Voldemort in a majority of the Harry Potter films?

Also:

What are something's you want to see in my upcoming 200+ follower crackfic I'm writing?

Luna left for the Quidditch Cup a week before the others left, and had been updating them to the goings-on of the campsite. At least three Muggles had been Obliviated already and two fights had broken out between the Ireland and Bulgaria supporters, which landed one Bulgarian in the medical tent.

The night before they left, Harry and Ron were helping Mrs. Weasley pack food for the campgrounds, while Ginny and Hermione were making sure that Mr. Weasley didn't forget anything. Bill, Percy, and Charlie had gone to bed early, but the quartet was long accustomed to working on less sleep than most, so they had volunteered to help out. They had just finished putting the last of the food in the bag when Hermione and Ginny walked back inside, Mr. Weasley right behind them.

"Don't stay up too late, we're all getting up early." Mr. Weasley called after them as he put the bags by the front door.

"Yes, Mr. Weasley."

"Okay, Dad."

After he left, Hermione sighed, "He nearly forgot the tent. He did think to put an undetectable extension charm on the pack, however."

"Most bloody useful charm out there." Ron muttered, and Harry nodded with a chuckle.

"Anyway, we should probably go upstairs now. I don't want to go on less than three hours of sleep if I don't have to." Ginny said, rubbing her eyes. Hermione nodded as she yawned, leading the way up the stairs while Harry said goodbye and made his way back home.

Everyone was up before the crack of dawn, trudging up the hill towards the old shoe Portkey. The Diggorys had met up with them about halfway, and it was the first time any of them had been face to face with Cedric, most of them, especially Harry, had avoided him for the most part. Harry still felt guilty for the graveyard, even though the more rational part of him knew it wasn't his fault, and none of them had any reason to reach out to him in the first place. It was a slightly awkward trek, but Harry and Ron filled it with talk of Quidditch while Hermione and Ginny kept their conversation between themselves. They got to the Portkey without incident, and they were dragged to a grassy field, everyone except the twins landing on their feet.

Harry barely listened as the very conspicuously dressed wizard directed them to their lots. Harry had to help Mr. Weasley with the Muggle money before they made it to their campsite. Sirius and himself had the site right next to the Weasleys, so they spread out across the two of them. Mr. Weasley tried getting them to make a fire by hand, like the Muggles, but Sirius pointed out that most Muggles just used electric stoves now and he consented to use the stoves built into the tents. He did send the trio for the water because he refused to believe the Muggles had figured out running water outside of homes. He was right, of course, but that hadn't stopped the others from trying.

On the way there, they passed the young child who had taken his father's wand and the young girls who were riding the toy brooms before running into Dean and Seamus. Seamus greeted them enthusiastically, after ensuring they were rooting for Ireland. None of them dared to tell him they would be okay with either team winning, as they had become good friends with Viktor (at least, in their past life they had). They did still have loyalty to Ireland though, so it wasn't a total lie. They met his mother, to whom Harry was careful to emphasize his sanity and non-attention hogging nature. He wasn't sure if it worked, but he was also hoping it wouldn't be necessary, though he still wasn't sure how he was going to end this all. When they got to the water pump, they couldn't help but laugh at the man in the woman's nightgown, and the poor Ministry employee being forced to deal with him.
