Past Life Gamer

Chapter 32 Maze? More like Labyrinth

I followed the students to the new challenge aria. I've done nothing but practice controlling the amount of mana I produce, read books on interesting creatures and daily necessities. I learned that no one can raise the dead in this world. I wondered if it was something about their magic type or it cost their life in order to fulfill the resurrection.

I rubbed my chin as I walked the fairy sitting on my shoulder, she seemed board as she fiddled with her blond hair making it into a braid. As she finished, I looked away to follow the students I then felt something pull at my her I tried to turn to see who was pulling at my hair but a tiny hand was placed on my cheek as she tried to prevent me from turning. I stopped trying and focused back on where I was going as my hair continued to be pulled. I then felt small braids form on my head as she moved onto another section.

"So that's what you decided to do to relieve your boredom?" I asked and got two yanks in return. "Ok well have fun but make sure you watch what I do because I may have to move in an instant." I warned her and got another two yanks.

I walked into the stands and sat down in the front row so I could see everyone. I tuned out the people in the crowd and focused on the 4 contestants and their supervisors. None of them talked about anything of importance and then Dumbledore walked into the center of them.

"Welcome to the final game of the Tri Wizard cup. We will be deciding who gets the cup this year and who will get second place with this event!" He announced. "As such Eclipse has already obtained first place and has agreed to let us fid the next placed winner. She has also given permission for us to give the cup to the second-place winner." He continued. "Now with the firing of the cannon-" He said but was interrupted by the cannons fire and glared at Mr. Filch

The contestants turned and walked into the hedge maze and the maze closed!? "Its more like a labyrinth than a maze." I mumbled. "All its missing is monsters." I whispered to the fairy who had made it to the other side of my head. She came in front of me and nodded. "So, do I look pretty?" I asked her to mess with my now braided hair. She nodded and sat on my head.

I cut off my sight as I focused on listening to the sounds of the contestants as they wandered through the labyrinth. One of the contestants sounded strange though I couldn't put my finger on it I listened closely to every sound he produced until I found it a minuet later.

"Shit the man is under a spell." I cursed as I listened to his almost robotic movements.

I listened to him stun the female contestant and almost attacked Harry but walked away from him. I sighed when he did then another contestant knocked him out. The girl was rescued by a wizard and the man was brought by his supervisor. I watched as the supervisor waved his wand and removed the spell. I narrowed my eyes at the mand in suspicion but didn't say anything about it. then I heard a loud thump and both of the contestants disappeared. I looked for their appearance but as a few minutes passed they didn't show up.

"Dumbledore!" I hissed.

He turned and walked to me. "What do you need?" He asked.

"Is the teleportation device suppose to take them here?" I asked him.

"The port key is geared to take them here." He told me.

"Then we have a problem." I replied.

"What do you mean?' He asked.

"Their gone I can't find them anywhere in the labyrinth." I whispered.

"That's not good can you find them anywhere?' He asked.

"No wherever they are its outside my hearing range and keep an eye on the man over there." I said pointing to the man that was currently removing the spell.
