"Was it..Go fish?" Penelope asked Charlotte as the friend group sat around a table.

"Yeah! You're getting the hang of the game!" Charlotte cheered.

"And go fish means that I don't have the card you asked for?" Penelope clarified, and was rather pleased when she was answered with a nod.

Charlotte picked up and a card and nodded towards Cedric, gesturing that it was his turn.

"Kathy, do you have a 7?" He asked politely.

"No" she said firmly, "oh! I mean, go fish"

Charlotte grinned at the correction before a loud explosion was set outside, seconds later Mr Diggory rushed inside.

"We need to leave to the port key!" He exclaimed, the teens hurried and grabbed their bags and shoes before running out to see the damage.

Fire and screams were filling the once vibrant scene and dark masked people marched through, shooting spells left and right.

Kathy felt a shiver go down her spine before grabbing Charlotte left hand and giving her a comforting squeeze.

"Cedric! You have to watch after the girls!" His dad ordered before he rushed towards the mayhem.

"Ced?" Penelope asked the frozen teen.

He jolted as Charlotte touched his arm and turned to see a Forrest, "you girls run in the direction towards the port key, I'm going to help on any way I can"

Charlotte let out a sob and Penelope grilled Charlotte's other hand.

Kathy offered him and nod before tugging at the girls so they could run, which they did quickly.

They ran as fast as they could do they could escape the danger, away from the horror and disaster that was going on.

When they reached the hill with the port key Charlotte dropped with a sob and Penelope after her, and they wrapped their arms around each other.

Kathy held out her wand just in case anyone was to attack them.

A twig snapped so she turned her wand that way, only to see the Weasley twins and Ginny.

Charlotte let out a breathe once she realised they were safe, and ran over to hug them.

Ginny plopped down on the floor next to Penelope as Kathy didn't lower her wand just in case.

"Relax, Woods. It's over" One if the Weasley twins announced before they fell on the floor with his other half and Charlotte.

Kathy nodded sharply before turning her attention on her friends.

She threw a knitted jumper at Charlotte, who sunk into it quickly.

Then, Kathy turned to Ginny and grabbed her ankle gently.

Ginny winced as Kathy poured water onto a burn, but at least it cleaned it out.

Kathy smiles at the young girl to offer some comfort before turning to a silent Penelope.

She leaned her head on Penelope's shoulder, and sadly looked at the Forrest that lay in front of them.

"Do you think cedric's alright?" Penelope broke the silence.

"It's Whiskers, he's lived through worse" Kathy offered a small joke, which Charlotte excepted in a giggle.

The group turned their heads when they heard voices, and there the two fathers and remaining teens were.

Penelope, Charlotte and Kathy and jumped up and ran towards Cedric.

They engulfed him in a hug and he groaned in pain.

"Told you, I'm always going to come back" Cedric reminded them with a small grin on his face, trying to cover up the whine.

They pulled away and then Penelope smacked the boys head.

"What the bloody hell were you thinking?! Going off like that! You know one day you're going to be seriously injured-or worse!!" Penelope started to lecture him, Charlotte tried to stop her with calls of a small 'stop it!'

Kathy watched her friends with a smile before shacking her head and walking towards the port key.
