Dominique's POV
I was so scared for Victoire and Emma , if we don't find them soon they might as well be dead as well as Teddy, Damian, Hanna, and Caleb. After we read the letters, they flew out of the window and when we tried to tell the adults they didn't believe so we took matters into our own hands. We all left Hogwarts to find them.
We split into 2 groups and we each went a certain way. I was with James, Louis, Roxanne, Lily, Natalie Finnigan (she started crying when we were leaving so we had to take her with us.) and Alice Longbottom (she was best friends with James and Louis so she came along)
We headed down a path and walked and walked until we saw a giant.... stadium I guess. We walked into it and the floor opened up and we flew through it.
We all fell into a narrow corridor with two pathways. We had to split up again. Roxanne took Lily and Natalie since they were both young and though she was a big prankster she was good under pressure and I couldn't deal with kids so I took my brother, James, and Alice.
We walked down a corridor until we came to another fork. We couldn't afford to split up anymore so I had no clue which way to go. I noticed a little blood on one pathway so we followed that one. Body parts were over and we reached a doorway with.... I screamed and I thought Alice would faint but James held her up. Caleb's head was up on the doorway. We opened up the door and I saw Roxanne shaking her head at us and Natalie and Lily sobbing before I saw someone swinging something at us. The last thing I remember before hitting the ground was a girls victorious voice saying "This shall make the game so much more fun."

Victoire's POV
Emma and I were chained to a wall watching on a magical wall what was going on. Emma and I were both still crying from the death of Hanna, but I couldn't belive my eyes when I saw my cousins and siblings enter. All of them in a small cage. I had a bad feeling about what really would happen at midnight. I didn't know if Emma and I would really be rescued.
Teddy has known everything because he was basically part of my family and knew me my whole life. It wasn't Damian's fault Caleb was dead, he was about to die anyway we heard Alison and Luke discussing it. Speaking of the devil guess who just walked in.
Luke walked in and unchained me.
"I'm going to make you make a choice sort of like Sophie's Choice. Luke said. "Except no one will die. One will be free from my torture thing though. I'm going to do that with all of your cousins and siblings. And I already returned Natalie Finnigan to Hogwarts, I might be evil but even I won't kill an innocent little girl. One by one, one will be safely locked in a room until the end but the other will be part of my scheme.
First he brought out little Lily and Hugo. How was I supposed to choose. They were both so young and innocent but I realized I had to make Lily be a part of this because she was always brave even as a seven year old. I chose Rosie over Albus because she was already tortured at the beginning of the year. That's also why I chose James over Louis to go to safety.
At the end Hugo, Rosie, James, Fred, Lucy, and Alice ended up in safety and Lily, Albus, Louis, Dom, Roxie, and Molly ended up part of Lukes scheme. I felt so bad.
Emma comforted me while I cried and I realized she was crying to. We both sobbed on each other and suddenly the floor started going down.
Alison stuck is to a pedestal and then left. Emma and I were both very confused when suddenly the doors burst opened and Teddy and Damian ran in and crashed into... and invisible barrier. Alisons voice rang out. "You didn't think it would be that easy did you? If you did well then your stupid. You've made it here before Midnight sure... but we'll there is one more task you have to complete. And when I say you I mean all four of you. What's more fun than... a maze. We got that idea from the Triwizard tournament except now the prize is your freedom. The room spun and they all were in first of an entrance of the maze. If they could find the exit they were free. We all got ours wands back but we could only use it for defense not to find the exit or anything or we are trapped forever.

Teddy's's POV
I was so excited to be able to finally save Vic. I came across my first challenge; a giant scorpion, which I would easily be able to take down except for the fact it had an unconscious Lily strapped to its back I had to find a way to get her off safely before attacking it. In a sudden burst of adrenaline I grabbed Lily and Stunned the scorpion before killing it. I had no idea what to do with Lily though. I couldn't just leave her here, defenseless.
Alisons voice rang through the maze. "If you have rescued a child write the child's name on the ground with magic and a chute the size of them will appear. Slide them down it and they will be safe. You try to go down it and well.... I can't say the same for you.
Eventually every child was rescued but Vic, Em, Damian, and I were still trapped here. I had definitely broken my ribs and there was poison going through my body and I had to lay down. I crawled around the corner and saw Damian and Emma lying on the ground, Emma all bloody and Damian's arms and legs didn't look like they should be able to bend like this. I layed down next to them. "I guess it's up to Vic to save us.

Victoire's POV
I saw Teddy, Emma, and Damian all looking dead. I ran and ran until I actually found the exit. I was finally free! I found a note outside stating that all my siblings and cousins were safely at Hogwarts.
Around 2 hours later I had arrived at Hogwarts. I ran up to the Hospital wing. I burst in and my mother ran to me. "Vicky I thought I would never see you again! Where are your friends? " She looked at what I was wearing and almost screamed. "What are you wearing? What happened.
I walked over to a bed and lied down. "Teddy, Emma, and Damian are trapped in a maze and severely injured. Find them before they die. Caleb is dead. And Luke make me wear it. I'm scarred. How have you been? Where's Hanna?" By now I was just blubbering and I crashed onto the bed.

I was bruised all over and had so many scars. I think I was mentally scarred to. They had rescued Emma, Teddy, and Damian and all our injuries had been healed. Hanna was really sick and she had a 5% chance of living. I couldn't fall asleep without Teddy and I often had night terrors and it was the same with Emma.
Luke and Alison had escaped narrowly. I was glad to be home even after all this craziness.

A/N only one or two more chapters to go.
What do you think?
I am making a sequel about Teddy and Victories life after Hogwarts. He will be 19 and she will be 18. I have everything panned out and don't worry, it'll be much more planned out than this book. Next chapter is epilogue and I am excited. It's going to be crazy.
