final task

Harper Potter

I was with all my friends as we awaited the final task. I was really nervous for Harry wondering what the future held for him. I leaned my head on Draco's shoulder as we waited for everyone to come out. What can I say I'm just tired I swear!

All the champions began to walk out. Dumbledore announced Harry and Cedric were going in first, second was Krum, and lastly Fleur. The first person to touch the cup wins.

Cedric hugged his father and Harry looked up at me and smiled. I made a heart with my hands to show that I was still there for him. I mean if something goes wrong I don't want him thinking I hate him you know. Still mad, but it can wait.

Everyone enters the maze and it was about a few minutes before anything happened. Fleur lost first, then Krum. After we were just waiting. It was between Harry and Cedric.

All of a sudden, I got a massive headache. I literally couldn't think. I was holding my head and hissing in pain. What the hell was happening.

"Harper, what's wrong." Draco said with concern in his voice. I couldn't respond as I couldn't even form a sentence. Someone called over Dumbledore and before I knew it I passed out.

I woke up in a sketchy graveyard. I looked and Cedric was there, but he wasn't moving. So was Harry and he was held captive. There was some bald scary dude and bunch of other scary dudes. Was I dreaming? I felt like if I didn't move no one would see me.

"Finally, there you are," The bald guy muttered looking directly at me. Shit.

"What do you want, who are you?" I said to him.

"Oh you know me more than you think. I am the dark lord," Voldemort said. He cast a spell at Harry and he was knocked out cold.

"You see, I don't need Potter here finding out your secret just yet. Come closer my child," The dark lord said. I got up slowly from where I was and moved closer as he requested.

"What secret do I have that you know of?" I asked.

"It's time you come home. You were put in Slytherin for a reason. You are no Potter. The truth is that you have the Riddle blood in your veins," Voldemort stated.

"What the actual fuck," I managed to get out at a loss for words.

"What what, so I wasn't saved by Sirius?" I questioned trying to make sense of this.

"Sirius is a Death Eater, Harper. Death Eaters work for me. He is astray yes, but he didn't save you. I gave him to you per my request. This has been our plan all along. It's time for you to come home, daughter," Voldemort said looking directly into my soul.

I hung my mouth open in shock. There's no way this was true.

The dark lord snapped, "You. Bring it." One of his followers brought him a sort of card. Attached was a picture and a certificate of sort. He grabbed it and handed it to me. I read it and there it said 'Harper Riddle' born with my initial weight and height I was as I baby.

I memorized it because thats all I had from my previous years, but it said Harper Potter not Riddle. The picture was of me. The same one I had framed in my childhood bedroom.

"What the fuck," I muttered in shock.

"Darling, I know you need to process, but just know you will be called upon soon. It's almost time for the world to know who you are. I hear you have been making an impact as 'Slytherin Queen' I can say I'm not surprised. The world will know your name. Until then, no one can know," Voldemort stated.

My dad? Or the dark lord or Voldemort. Whatever the hell this guy is, reached out to me. He grabbed my arm and pressed his wand against it. I hissed in extreme pain. I even begun to cry because of how much it hurt. I cried out and hoped it would be over.

It was over before it started. I looked at my arm and there it was. The mark that changed everything. I was just 15 and I had been called to the dark side.

"If you are to be named my daughter, you must be stronger than this. I will not have a weak child to be known," He strictly ordered.

I looked down not wanting to make eye contact.

He lastly added, "No one will see. No one will know. If you are called you come. ALWAYS. Those are the rules daughter. Till then!"

I pulled my sleeve down immediately. My brother or I mean Harry woke up and made a way for the cup. He called out to me to come so I ran towards him and before I knew it I was in the infirmary.

Maybe it was just a bad dream. I'm sure I passed out and just had a terror. I pulled up my sleeve slowly and there it was. The dark mark embedded in me. I heard something coming so I quickly pulled my sleeve down. Draco.

"Oh my god, thank the heavens it's you," I quickly expressed as I hugged the blonde boy.

"Gosh are you okay?" Draco asked me.

"What happened?" I asked.

"Well you passed out and started seizing. I called over Dumbledore and they called Madam Pomfrey. Your heart rate was extremely high they thought you were having a heart attack or something, but everything seems to be back to normal now it's really weird," He explained.

"Yeah, I'm ok now I promise," I hugged Draco again.

"Wait who won? Harry or Cedric?" I asked forgetting what I saw at the graveyard.

"Harp.. Cedric. He um- he didn't make it. Harry is okay though," Draco said to me.

"No. no. no. that's not-he's not? Oh gosh," I stumbled over my words before crying.

"I know, I'm sorry Harper," Draco replied.

"I'll be okay. Just don't leave please," I tried to keep myself together.

"Of course not," He replied slipping his hand back into mine reminding me of recent days.

Little did he know, just a few inches up was the dark mark. Something that changed everything.

Till next year💋
