The goblet of fire

"Alastor Moody."
Moody turned towards the board and began to frantically write his name on it.
"Ex-Auror "
The room was filled with the aggressive sound of chalk meeting the front board.
"Ministry malcontent..and your new Defense against the Dark Arts teacher.I'm here because Dumbledore asked me.End of story..."
His voice rose
"Goodbye.The end.Any questions?"
Silence.Nobody dared to make a single sound.Moody scanned the room with his eyes preparing for what he was about to say.
"When it comes to the Dark Arts"
Almost whispering now
"I believe in a practical approach."
Y/n furrowed her eyebrows.
"Practical approach?"
She thought and looked over to Hermione next to her and they started communicating with facial expressions.
Y/n gave her the "What the hell is that supposed to mean" look.
Lejla behind her also sensed that something was completely off.Clearly everything was off.Her brother wanted to basically attempt suicide and her professor was just weird.
"But first,which of you can tell me how many Unforgivable curses there are?"
"Awesome",Lejla thought.
"Now Dad's going to be left childless.One child death because of the Triwizard tournament,the other during her first defends against Dark Arts lesson,while approaching the unforgivable curses in a practical way.How great."
She looked at Y/n and gave her the
"This man has lost his mind" look.
"Three,sir"
Hermione said now completely uncomfortably,breaking the silence that filled and sealed the room.
"And they are so named?"
He took the chalk again
"Because they are unforgivable-"
Hermiones voice now trembling
"The use of any of them will-
Will earn you a one-way ticket to Azkaban.Correct"
He finished her sentence now even more aggressive than before and so,his voice rose again,but for longer.
"The Ministry says you're too young to see what these curses do.I say different!"
Now screaming
"You need to know what you're up against!You need to be prepared.You need to find another place to put your chewing gum besides the underside of your desk.Mr.Finnigan!"
All eyes were on Seamus.
"No way,the old codger can see out of the back of his head"
That was a mistake.
Moody threw the chalk that was left at Seamus.
"And hear across the classrooms!"
Luckily he calmed down and talked in an almost whispery-tone again.
"So,which curse shall we see first?"
Moody waited for a moment.
Suddenly he roared
"Weasley!"
"Yes?"
Ron clearly frightened.
"Stand"
And on command he stood.
"Give us a curse."
"Well,my dad did tell me about one"
Moody nodding reassuringly.
"The Imperius Curse."
"Oh,yeah,your father would know all about that.Gave the Ministry quite a bit of grief a few years ago."
Moody started getting ready to get back to his desk.
"Perhaps this will show you why."
Y/n and Hermione now furious.
Moody opened a what looked like jar full of worms and insects.
"Hello.Lovely little beauty."
He took a spider like creature into his hand.
"Engorgio.Imperio!"
Now bigger and under the influence of Moody the spider guided by Moody's hand jumped onto Neville's and Dean's desk.
Some students started gasping and some laughing.
Oh,yeah,now they were definitely laughing,cause Moody made the spider jump into Crabbe's face.
"Don't worry.She's completely harmless." But the laughter faded away rather quickly,cause the ones laughing got punished by them having the spider in their face.
Or on their hand,like Padma Patil,gasping for breath as the spider crawled up her arm.
Now the spider was guided towards Ron.Moody looked delighted as he hovered the spider over Ron's head.
"If she bites....,she's lethal"
Now Mad-eye laughed maniacally as he dropped the spider on Ron's head,who in turned looked like he was about to fall over.
Draco in particular seemed to have enjoyed watching Ron suffer,but he rejoiced too soon.
"What are you laughing at?"
And Moody directed the spider directly towards Draco,where it the crawled onto his nose,with all its long hairy legs spread all over his face.The whole classroom burst into laughter,clearly enjoying the picture.He made frantic movements and asked Goyle for help,who didn't now what to do either.
"Get off!Get off!"
Maybe Y/n liked Moody after all,she thought as she grinned.Ron looked a thousand times happier now and Harry clapped with great satisfaction.
"Talented isn't she?What should I have her do next?"
He aimed his wand towards the window,but the spider hit a magnifying glass halfway away.
The laughter began to quiet down.
Directly under the magnifying glass was a jug filled with water.
"Drown herself?"
The laughter stopped.The students started watching,transfixed,as the spider shrieked and tried to refuse to drown itself.Moody released the spider back onto his hand.
„Scores of witches and wizards have claimed that they only did You-know-Who's bidding under the influence of the Imperius Curse.Bit here's the run:How do we sort out the liars?"
Silenced filled the room again and Moody spaced out until he remembered,he had a class to teach.
"Another!Another!"
he ordered forcefully.
Many hands went up and he encouraged several more to come forward.Like Neville.
"Up!up.Come on.Longbottom,is it?Up."
Neville slowly stood up.
"Professor Sprout tells me you have an aptitude for herbology."
He nodded slightly
"There's the...The Cruciatus Curse."
Moody reacted with such astonishment that one might think he had forgotten that he asked for the Unforgivable Curses.
"Correct,correct.Come,come."
He shooed Neville forward,who was rather unsure about the whole thing.
"But he won't use the spell on him now?"
Lejla whispered worryingly in Y/n's ear.But Y/n just looked forward at poor Neville.
"Particularly nasty.The torture curse."
Moody whispered again and set his sights on the spider.Y/n was now relieved that Lejla's fears had not come true.
"Crucio!"
But when Moody tortured the spider,it look like Neville felt the pain himself.
Y/n's relief vanished into thin air and was displaced with disgust.The animal's squeaks became louder and the painful expression on Neville's face became clearer and larger.
Y/n had to say something
"Stop it!Can't you see it's bothering him?"
Hermione chimed in
,,Stop it!"
Moody looked at the spider as if spellbound until he noticed Hermione,he immediately stopped.Neville closed his eyes and Moody walked with the spider towards an angry Y/n and Hermione.
He laid the spider in front of Hermione.
"Perhaps you could give us the last Unforgivable Curse.Miss Granger?"
Hermione shook her head in refusal.
"No?" Moody pouted
"Black?"
He tilted his head and looked at her intently.
"Avada Kedavra,"
she said coldly.
"Avada Kedavra!"
Moody cast the spell and the spider laid dead in front of Y/n and Hermione.
"The killing curse.Only one person is known to have survived it and he's sitting in this room."
He went to Harry and stared almost threateningly into his eyes even as he took a sip from his strange bottle.
ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ
Y/n did definitely NOT like this man,after all.
"What is in his bottle?"
She couldn't think of anything other than his strange obsession with his drink as she and her friends streamed down the stairs.The main thing was to get out of this classroom.
"Brilliant,isn't he?"
Y/n poked Ron angrily in the ribs.
"Completely denied,of course,and terrifying to be in the same room with."
Ron looked to see if Y/n was still listening as he spoke quietly to Harry
"But he really has been there,you know?He's looked evil in the eye."
Y/n may not have heard him,but Hermione sure did
"There's a reason those curses are unforgivable.To perform them in a classroom..."
She shook her head in disbelief
"I mean did you see Neville's face?"
But Harry shook her to signal that a devastated Neville was right next to her.
Y/n walked up to Neville and squeezed his shoulder
"Neville?"
But Moody also came towards Neville and Y/n scowled at him angrily.
"Son?You all right?Come on.We'll have a cup of tea.I want to show you something."
And then they left.And Hermione,Y/n and Lejla set out to warn Eva,who is a year below them.She now had Moody in her next hour.

"What do you think Fred and George are going to do to get their names into the goblet of fire?"
Y/n and Hermione had made themselves comfortable around the Goblet of Fire with a few books.
Hermione peeked out of her book.
"Something stupid."
She smiled a little more empathetically
"And what are YOU going to do so that Cedric does NOT throw his name into the Goblet of Fire."
Y/n looked up in shock
"I don't have any claim to him.So far we've had two small,harmless conversations."
Hermione raised her eyebrow
"Okey,during the last conversation,I snapped at him and made him feel stupid.But honestly-"
She held both of her hands up
"-he can do whatever he wants"
And with a satisfied smile she went back to her book and tried to concentrate on it,but Hermione looked at her demandingly.And finally,Y/n gave up.
"Hermione,I don't want him to throw his name in there."
she whined
"Listen to me,he gives me the feeling that something might develop and I don't want my potential boyfriend-"
She paused and looked Hermione's mischievous grin
"Potential"
Y/n emphasized with her finger raised
"So you're considering it?"
"Potential"
Y/n insisted
"You're considering it"
"Potential"
"You're going to get married."
"Woah!Back to the topic at hand."
Y/n couldn't help but laugh and Hermione warmly joined in.
She took Y/n's hand
"Y/n you have a crush on Cedric-
Now don't try to deny it"
She quickly said as Y/n was already ready to open her mouth to disagree with the statement
"And he has a crush on you as well.Every blind person can see this.Just let yourself get involved with him.What's the worst that can happen?"
That's the encouragement you need in your life.And Y/n made new decision.
Not only would Cedric and her talk but she would seek out the conversation.
"Speaking of the devil."
"Come on,Cedric.Put it in!"
Y/n's heart skipped a beat and she began to smile getting ready to go take to him,till she saw him going into the circle to throw his name into the Goblet.
Her heart dropped.
The people applauded has the name was thrown into the goblet and Cedric was welcomed warmly by his friends.
"Now or never?"
She asked Hermione
"I wouldn't worry about that?"
"What?"
"Y/n?"
Cedric had already come to her.
"Can I please talk to you?"
Hermione gave her a reassuring smile and Y/n relaxed a bit
"Of course"
Y/n stood up and they began to walk for a bit.
"So..."
Y/n awkwardly started
"So."
Cedric joins her.
"You're really obsessed with that eternal glory thing,aren't ya?"
Y/n tried to laugh but it just made things more awkward.
"I'm doing it because of you."
"Because of me?"
Y/n stopped abruptly.
"Because of you."
However,Cedric continued walking,which naturally forced Y/n to follow him.
"I'm debunking your theory.I will be the first person whose name at least one person remembers."
"So you're seeing this as a bet?Except the prize is your life?"
"My life,or for me,your recognition."
"You've lost your mind."
Y/n was already in her way back to Hermione
"Go on a date with me."
Y/n stopped and slowly turned around to get closer to Cedric again
"Tomorrow,Friday,Hogsmead,6:00 p.m."
"I have homework."
Cedric looked at her questioningly
"A lot"
"Oh well-"
Y/n was almost relieved that Cedric gave up so quickly.
"Then you'll probably have to do your homework earlier."
Cedric proudly strode away,leaving Y/n with a shocked expression in her face.
"So?"
Hermione asked excitedly.
"I have a date."
And even though Y/n was fed up with Cedric a few seconds ago,she never felt happier about meeting up with someone.
( ' ▽ ' ).｡ｏ♡( ' ▽ ' ).｡ｏ♡( ' ▽ ' ).｡ｏ
"And the thought it would work?"
Y/n looked at the bearded and old looking twins Fred and George at the Gryffindor table.
"Yep"Eva replied,shaking her head
"But you know what's even more exciting."
Y/n looked at Eva
"Hermione and Krum."
"What?!"
"Mhmmm"
Eva nodded happily
"She didn't tell me anything."
"Me neither."
Eva shrugged and Y/n rolled her eyes
"Then how do you know that something is going on between them?"
"I saw it.They exchanged the most intense looks."
Eva glared at her innocently and Y/n laughed in disbelief at this girl.
"Sit down,please."
It started
"Now the moment you've all been waiting for:The champion selection."
Dumbledore dimmed the lights and slowly walked over to the Goblet of Fire and touched it till the blue flames turned red and spit out the first name.
"The Durmstrang champion is Viktor Krum!"
Loud applause rang out through the hall and Y/n looked directly at Hermione,who was gazing shyly at the floor.
"I told you."
Dumbledore shook Viktor's hand and he disappeared behind the stands.
Next was Fleur Delacour for Beauxbaton.
Y/n smiled at her encouragingly.
Now it was turn for the Hogwarts champion and Y/n's heart stopped.
"The Hogwarts champion,Cedric Diggory."
Y/n slumped her tense shoulder and smiled sadly at him.
"Don't worry"he mouthed as he too walked forward and disappeared behind the stands.
"Excellent!We now have our three champions.But in the end,only one will go down in history.Only one-"
Crouch brought forward an object wrapped in a blanket
"-will hoist this chalice of champions..this vessel of victory"
Dumbledore turned around and at the same moment the blanket disappeared from the object
"...The Triwizard Cup!"
Everyone was amazed and clapped.
But the Goblet of Fire changed colour again and spat out another piece of parchment.
Dumbledore took the piece worryingly
"Harry Potter"
