Y/N was in his room looking at the board with everything he had pertaining to Daphne and Harry's names ending up in the cup. Bellatrix looked at him.
"You could let me interrogate Moody, he is your prime suspect isn't he?" Bellatrix said as Y/N nodded.
"No. Bellatrix, we can't risk you having a relapse." Y/N said as Bellatrix looked at him. "Speaking of which, I think I know how I can help you."
Bellatrix's eyes widened.
"You do?"
"Your guilt over what happened, over what they made you do, that's eating you up from the inside out, tearing you apart. So, we have to face up to the source of that guilt." Y/N said as he kept looking at the board. "We face the source."
"What do you mean?"
"Neville Longbottom. You need to talk to him, tell him what exactly happened." Y/N said as Bellatrix looked shocked.
"Are you insane? You haven't even told your girl about me and you now want me to go and tell the son of two people who I tortured to insanity exactly what I did to his parents?" Bellatrix said as Y/N nodded.
"That's exactly what I'm saying. Confront this guilt at the centre. That's the best way to deal with it." Y/N said as he looked at the board before turning to Bellatrix.
"Tell him what happened to you. What Riddle did to you, then tell him about his parents, and what would have happened if you didn't do it, tell him exactly why you did it. Give him the closure he wants, and help yourself get rid of that guilt." Y/N said as Bellatrix thought for a moment. "I can set up the meeting, make sure that he won't report you."
"Y/N, you know the risks if we do this."
"I know, if you go down, I go too, so believe me, I know. But if we don't do this then those bastards in the ministry will use you as a scapegoat, they'll just keep destroying your name, you don't want that, nor do I. You want your life back... I want my Auntie to live free without having to look over her shoulder." Y/N said as Bellatrix paused for a moment. She smiled at him.
"Harry, you told me you and Daphne had figured the eggs out weeks ago. The task is two days from now." Hermione scolded as she and Harry spoke on the wooden bridge.
"Really? I had no idea...I don't suppose Viktor's let on about anything has he?" Harry asked as Hermione shrugged.
"I wouldn't know, we don't really talk about the tournament. Actually, we don't really talk at all. Viktor's more of a physical being." Hermione said, there was a brief moment of silence before they both realized how that sounded and let out a laugh together. "I just mean, he's not particularly loquacious."
"Mm-hm." Harry teased.
"Mostly, he watches me study. It's a bit annoying actually." Hermione admitted. "Well, when he does it anyway, he just stares intently at me."
"You and Daphne are trying to figure this egg out aren't you?" Hermione said.
"What's that supposed to mean?"
"It just means that these tasks are designed to test you, in the most brutal way. They're cruel. And, um...I'm scared for you, both of you. You got by the dragon mostly on nerve while Daphne got by through...well a bloody miracle. But I'm not sure it's going to be enough this time." Hermione said as she saw Cedric approaching.
Y/N was with Daphne, in the great hall they were eating their breakfast, with Y/N actually deciding to eat a full English breakfast, something that caught Daphne and Draco off guard, Y/N usually only going for a small breakfast like a bowl of cereal or a plate of toast.
"Big breakfast today Y/N?" Draco asked as Y/N nodded.
"Yes, I'm hungry."
"Late night activities?" Draco asked with a smirk as Y/N looked at him.
"Draco, our mother loves you, keep going with that line of inquiry and she'll be mourning you." Y/N said as he looked at his brother who smirked. "I mean it."
"Okay. Okay." Draco said as he went back to his own food.
Y/N looked at Daphne who was eating while reading when she saw Cedric approaching.
"Take your egg to the prefects bathroom."
"Does it work underwater?"
"How-"
"Educated guess from your hint, still, thank you for the help." Daphne said.
"Yeah, bright idea Batman." Y/N said as Cedric smirked.
"Daphne'll need a the password, its 'Pine Fresh'." Cedric said as Y/N looked at him.
"Thank you Cedric." Daphne said as the boy walked away. She turned to look at Y/N. "I'll go later for now I'm studying."
