Emily was fed up. She was fed up being bullied for something she didn't do. She was fed up with not being sent letters by her father, though Harry received countless and even saw him talking to Sirius in the fire. She was especially fed up with the golden trio, who bullied her, even though they knew that Sirius Black wasn't a murderer. 

That morning, Emily burst, "Hey! Black! Where is your murder tool? I thought you were going to stand around the corner to hit me!" Potter exclaimed. Cedric wasn't there to calm her down, he was on a romantic walk (bleh!) with his girlfriend Cho. Emily breathed heavily through her nose, "I have a question. Why aren't you in Slytherin? You would fit in perfectly!" Potter shouted. A person from the Slytherin table shouted, not caring about Emily's feelings, "Because we don't want her!" Emily was done. She was done with the bullying.

"Shut up! Everyone! Who cares if my last name is Black, I didn't do anything bad to you, did I! Why am I shunted around, kicked around and bullied by people that don't know me, thinking that I they know me just because of my last name! Well, guess what? I am nothing like him! The only similarities are our eyes and house! He abandoned me as a baby, and then you think that I will follow in his footsteps! I am done! I am done with the prejudice, I am done with being bullied, I am done with BEING SEEN AS LESS IMPORTANT! WHY ME? WHY NOT POTTER?" Emily exclaimed ferociously. "Because he saved the wizarding world, and your father killed Peter Pettigrew and all those muggles!" a Ravenclaw girl said with a 'duh' tone.

"Do you hear your self. My supposed FATHER, murdered those people, NOT ME! WHAT HAVE I DONE TO YOU THAT MAKE YOU THINK THAT YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO MAKE MY LIFE HELL!" Emily shouted.

Long story short, Emily got detention for punching Harry, Ron and Hermione, and that person in Slytherin and Harry, Ron and Hermione also got detention for bullying. Emily was lucky she had it with McGonagall, who just gave her lines, while the other 4 kids cleaned and did other dirty stuff.

That was 1 month ago. It is now the day of the first task, and strangely enough, Emily didn't only feel nervous for Cedric, but also for the black haired, green eyed boy who she has punched just a month ago. Cedric knew that he was going to have to fight dragons, because of Harry. He somehow got to know that they were going to fight dragons, so Emily helped Cedric train, together with Cho.

Emily sat in the stands, waiting impatiently for Cedric to come in. He had the Swedish short snout. After a lot of oohs, and aahs from the crowd, Emily decided to look, and Cedric had gotten the egg and ran into the champions tent. 5 minutes later, Emily and Cho had arrived there too, hugging him fiercely. Emily was softly crying in his chest. Cho sitting next to them, and Madam Pomfrey tending to his wounds. Harry was last, and somehow Emily was relieved to see that he didn't die, even though she would have been sad about it a month ago.

Emily was extremely happy to know that the second task was on February 24, ages away. Cedric had enough time to figure out what the egg meant, and to solve it, and prepare for the task ahead. Emily walked out of the tent, leaving Cedric and Cho together. Emily just walked around absentmindedly, accidentally bumping into someone. It had to be Potter and Weasley. "Oh, you're back with Weasley again I see, Potter," Emily noticed. Harry nodded, and was confused at why she noticed this, and Emily saw the question coming, "I noticed because I look at my surrounding, and remember things, like Granger being an owl between you two, and between us, that wasn't really nice *fake cough*." Emily said, and she walked of, leaving Ron and Harry looking perplexed. 'Wow, she was smart' Harry thought, and he was really happy that Ron wasn't able to read minds. For some reason, Ron hated Emily more that Harry did, but they both had no reason to hate her. Emily however, had every right to hate him, and Harry took her father away from her, and Ron was friends with him and they bullied her. Enough reasons for someone to hate another.
