The Girl Who Remembers

Chapter 30

Dahlia's POV

The four of us were sat around in the Library, trying to figure out Harry's riddle for the next task; which was tomorrow, I was resting my head against Harry's shoulder, trying my hardest not to fall asleep,

"Granger, Black. Dumbledore has requested that you go to his office immediately" Moody asserted making me jolt up, I pressed a kiss on top of Harry's head before following Hermione out of the library,

"What do you think it's about?" Hermione asked,

"No idea... I mean we've done no wrong, not that I can remember at least" I replied before we entered Dumbledore's office to see Gabrielle and Cho also stood there, "Why do I feel like this is to do with the task tomorrow..." I trailed off, Gabrielle bounced over to me and tackled me with a hug, "It's good to see you again, Gabrielle" I smiled,

"You're not wrong Miss Black" Dumbledore commented making us all look towards him, "The four of you are important to our Champions, therefore we're going to be needing your assistance with the second task" He explained,

"And what would our assistance be?" Cho questioned,

"We comatose you all and place you at the bottom of the Lake for the Champions to receive" He answered, all of our eyes widened as we stared at him,

"Let me get this right; you want to comatose us for the task?" Hermione repeated, he nodded we all exchanged a look with each other,

"We don't have a choice, do we?" Gabrielle asked, he shook his head

"Very well...let's do this" I sighed.

I gasped for air as I surfaced the water, Gabrielle began coughing next to me as she struggled to stay above the water, I grabbed a hold of her and kept her above the water as we swam towards the stands,

"Gabrielle!" Fluer sighed in relief as she stood at the edge of the stand, I pushed Gabrielle on to the stand before pulling myself off, "Thank you" Fluer smiled as she gave me a hug before taking Gabrielle to warm up,

"D!" Valeria and Aurora exclaimed as they wrapped me in towels and took me away from the waters edge, I stared out at the water noticing Harry hadn't resurfaced and it had been over the hour, I shrugged off the towels and pushed through the crowd, "Dahlia!" They yelled as I dove back into the water, giving myself gills and a tail before swimming over to where we surfaced, I dove deeper to see Harry sinking, I grabbed him and swam towards the surface, I jumped out of the water landing on the stand, shifting back to normal as Harry coughed up water making me sigh in relief as I tackled him with a hug,

"Don't ever scare me like that again!" I scolded pulling away, he gave me a weak smile then a quick kiss,

"Is that enough for you to forgive me?" He asked before the twins bombarded us both with towels and robes, I laughed at their rambling as they fussed over the two of us, Fluer came over and kissed Harry's cheek

"Thank you! She wasn't yours to save but you did so anyway!" She exclaimed, Gabrielle gave me a tight hug before they wandered off somewhere, we stood up and huddled together trying to get some warmth, the twins huddle around us, producing more body heat,

"Attention!" Dumbledore bellowed making everyone cringe and cover their ears as we dropped quiet "In joint first Mr Diggory and Mr Potter! Second goes to Mr Krum! And Miss Delacour is in last!" He announced, I smiled as the twins put Harry on their shoulders making me laugh

"Hogwarts! Hogwarts! Hogwarts!" Every Hogwarts student chanted while dancing around.
