Fallen rose (Book #1)

First task

Everything had settled down with me punching Jason in the nose but I knew next year I was not allowed at durmstrang next year. But! Dumbledore was happy to take me in.
 
   Cedric and I had gotten closer as friends and when I was alone I would practice with the wand I had found. But it was the day of the first task. I didn't know what it was but I was ready for anything.

I had gotten ready and had headed down to the great Hall. "Lauretta! Over here!" A voice came from Hufflepuffs table. I smiled seeing it was Cedric and went to take a seat at the table.

"Ready for the task?" He asked me.

"As I'll ever be. Just wondering what the task is." I told him. His faced paled at my words.

"You okay Ced?" I asked him.

"Uh..yeah..yeah just nervous is all." He said quickly taking a swing of pumpkin juice.

"Alright." I said shrugging it off and beginning to eat.

Professor sprout came up to Cedric and I and said we were needed by Hagrids. We got up and walked down there and waited for the others to show up.

When everyone arrived we were guided to a tent and Barty crouch was there along with the headmaster's. Alright!

"Champions gather round." Crouch said. We all gathered around him and he held a bag. "For this task you are to retrieve an egg to be able to move on to the second task. But be warned every egg is guarded by a beast. Now ms.delacour please grab a dragon from the bag." He said holding it out to her.

She picked a dragon up and looked at it "the Welsh green." Crouch told her.

"Ms.potter you next." He said holding the bag out to be.

I stuck my hand in the bag and picked out a white dragon...shit...

"The Antipodean Opaleye. Good luck Ms.potter." he told me guilt in his eyes. Uh...

I've read about them and it said they aren't the most aggressive but killed a lot of kangeroos in the 1970s so..why the guilt?

Was this one of the more agressive? Krum was next. He pulled out the Chinese fire ball. "The Chinese fire ball! Ooo~." Crouch said.

"Mr.diggory you next." He said. Cedric stuck his hand in and pulled out a sweedish short snout.

"The sweedish short snout." Crouch said.

Harry was next and I could've sworn he mubled something.

He pulled out a black dragon that had horns all over it. The Hungarian horntail..

"The Hungarian horn tail." Crouch said folding the bag up.

"Alright! Now when the cannon blast mr.diggory you will head out, then Ms.delacour, then Ms.potter, Then Mr.krum, and finally Mr.Potter. Now on the sound on the cannon-" the cannon went off before crouch could finish.

"Be careful." I said giving Cedric a quick hug.

"You too." He said heading out.

After a while Cedric had finished his task and fleur headed out.

Then it was my turn. The cannon shot rang out and I headed out to the stadium. The terrain was all messed up already. I stepped out a foot and flames shot out past me. I whipped my wand out but I had a back up wand, the one I found, just in case. I ran out and dove behind a rock getting the spell ready. I mumbled the spell twice and stood up pointing it at the dragon. It restrained to the ground and I went to the egg.

But the dragon broke free of the spell and clawed a rock. It came flying at me causing screaming to ring through the stadium. The rock smashed against my arm sending me flying into the wand sending my wand across the stadium.
