You were eating dinner with Cedric, but he was barely eating. "Ced, you need to eat something." You consoled to him. He just looked at his food and mumbled, "I'm not hungry..." You held his hand and pleaded, "Please Ced. For me?" He gave in and started to eat the food on his.
*hours later*
The champions stood at the entrance of the maze. Mr. Diggory hugged Cedric and wished him luck. You hugged the other champions to wish them good luck.

You walked over to Cedric and he brushed his forehead against yours. "Promise me this, Ced." you spoke. He looked at you and you continued, "Just come back safely." and he smiled at you and kissed you gently, "I will (y/n)."
You sat with your friends and the task started. The champions entered the maze and the entrances closed.
*Cedric POV*
Holy shit! (HoW daRe yOu Say THat in The Minecraft CHRistian SerVer?!) This was a lot worse than I thought it would be.
I'm constantly going down pathways and it feels like i'm going to the same places. As I was running, I crashed into Harry by accident. "I'm sorry! I didn't see you!" I exclaimed as I helped him off the ground. "Don't worry." he said as he brushed dirt off of his shirt.
We stood there for a couple seconds but then the pathways were closing in and we saw something glowing. We ran towards it but got stopped when something grabbed hold of my leg.
*Your POV*
You were laying on the stands, with your head on Hermione's lap. She was running her fingers through your hair to comfort you. "It'll be fine (y/n). He promised after all." she smiled. The twins gave you some candy to cheer you up. You smiled at them and thanked them.
*Cedric's POV*
"Harry!!" I shouted and struggled. The plant that caught hold of me started to wrap around me and pull me back. Harry ran back and shouted, "Reducto." and broke me loose. We ran off to the glowing Cup and argued over who takes it. I thought that he should've taken it because he saved me, but he insisted that we both take it and we did.
Instead of taking us back to the entrance of the maze, it took us to a graveyard. "I know this place, I've seen it in my dreams." Harry said as he looked around. We saw a man and a voice said, "Kill the boy." and he attempted to cast the killing curse on me, but Harry pulled me out of the way and told me to hide. I hid behind a statue.
*Harry's POV*
After saving Cedric and telling him to hide, Death Eaters were coming in. I recognized the man and saw that it was Peter Pettigrew. I got pinned to the statue and struggled to get loose. Peter took a knife and cut my arm. I screamed in pain as he went back to the cauldron. There I saw, Lord Voldemort rise from the cauldron.
I heard shouting and saw a death eater come out, holding Cedric hostage. "Leave him alone!" I shouted, but they didn't let him go. They pushed him to the ground and inflicted the torture curse on him. His screams and laughter were the only thing that I could hear. "Somebody help me!!!!" Cedric cried out in pain.
I shouted and pleaded for them to stop but they sat there laughing. "Leave him alone!! Are you deaf or something??!" I shouted at them again.
They all looked at me and Voldemort released me from the statue's grip. "Why don't we have a little duel?" And he cast a spell at me. I cast one back and I saw ghosts emerge and stand beside me. 2 of them were my parents.
"We will distract him while you and your friend flee." My mother spoke. "Let go. Sweetheart, are you ready?" I let go and they surrounded him, giving me and Cedric time to run to the Cup and it took us back to the entrance of the maze.
*Your POV*
You were asleep and your head was still on Hermione's lap. "(y/n)! Wake up! Cedric and Harry are back!" You quickly sat up and saw them.
You saw Harry crying and rushed down the stairs of the stands and ran over to him. "What happened?" You asked him as you crouched down next to him. He hugged you and exclaimed, "He's back! Lord Voldemort is back! I saw him with my own eyes!" You hugged and said, "It's alright Harry. You're home now." you rubbed his back as he cried in your shoulder.
Mad-Eye walked over to you and said that he needed to speak with Harry as he pulled him up from the ground. You rushed over to Cedric and Professor Dumbledore and told them that Mad-Eye took Harry. The three of you including Professor McGonagall and Snape went to Mad-Eye's office and Madam Pomfrey took Cedric to the Hospital Wing.
You kicked the door opened and Dumbledore cast a spell at Mad-Eye that knocked him back. You rushed over to Harry and kept him behind you. A chest opened and the real Mad-Eye was trapped in there. The fake one started to change back into his real form. He lunged towards Harry and you grabbed the man's shirt, threw a couple punches at him, and pushed him back into the chair.
The man revealed his dark mark that looked exactly like the one you saw at the Quidditch World Cup. Dumbledore took Harry's arm and showed a cut mark that was still bleeding. The man smirked and chuckled, "You know what this means? He's back. Lord Voldemort is back." Dumbledore ordered Snape to take him back to Azkaban as you were walking Harry to the door. "I'll be welcomed back like a hero! And Voldemort will kill the boy who lived!" You stopped in your tracks and slowly turned your head to look at the man, "What... the hell did you just say?" he didn't say anything and you marched over to him, "You have a mouth and you know how to use it. Now what did you say?" You grabbed the collar of his shirt and glared at him. "Voldemort will kill the boy who lived." the man said again. You threw a couple punches at his face and knocked him to the ground, "You'll see smart ass. He will NOT and Harry WILL defeat him." you walked over to Harry and took him to the hospital wing.
*Time-Skip*
You sat on Harry's bed in the hospital wing and he held your hand for moral support. "Thanks for standing up for me (y/n)." he spoke with a soft tone. You smiled and replied, "It's what friends do for each other." he hugged you and you said goodnight to him and walked to the your dorm room.
