I wasn't able to sit with Draco and Pansy because the Beauxbatons delegates were going to be performing for the third and final task. 

"Good luck, Fleur!" I bade to her and gave her one last hug before the first canon blew off. Viktor was the first to step into the maze. When the second canon blew off, Fleur entered the maze. And on the third canon, both Harry and Cedric entered the maze together. 

Everyone was cheering for their own champion. Everyone from the stands had their own face paint with their colors and slogans being raised to show their support. As all four of them entered the maze, I made my way through a crowd of people and sat besides Draco. 

"I can't believe you're leaving tomorrow." Pansy says, making her way over to me and then clinging herself onto me. 

"I can always visit London when I'm on my break." I said, smiling assuringly at her. 

"Your english is getting better, Carpentier." Blaise grins. 

"It was all thanks to ma cherie!" I beamed, turning to face Draco as I planted a kiss on his cheek, but he turned to face me quick, making it look like we both pecked on our lips. 

"Did they just?!" 

"Merlin!" 

Most of the people in his house started to tease us. Howling even. I could even feel the deadly glares most of the females were giving me. But as if that was ever my fault. 

It was at that very moment, a bright light shot up through the sky. Signalling that someone has been hurt. And upon looking back down on the maze, Fleur was escorted outside. 

"Excuse me for awhile." I said, pulling myself away and making my way through the crowd of people to get where the other delegates are. Sitting besides Fleur as I gave her an assuring pat in the back. 

"What happened to you?" Asked Madame Maxime as she stood in front of Fleur. 

"Someone attacked me in the maze. It was a man. And then all I remember was me screaming before being pulled by those vines." She spoke in horrorific tone, her breathing ragged. 

"Was he one of the champions?" Madame Maxime asked. Fleur hesitantly nodded her head. 

It had seemed like forever until the next one to come out of the maze was Viktor. But his situation was different. Igor rushed to his side, Viktor looking visibly pale. 

Whatever was happening inside the maze wasn't good. Only two remained inside. I quietly made my way back to where Draco and company are. 

"What happened to Delacour?" Draco asked as I sat back down beside him. 

"She was attacked. But she didn't say who." I told him. I heaved a deep sigh before resting my head on his shoulders. 

I closed my eyes for a moment. And all of a sudden, Fleur's screaming. I quickly opened my eyes and looked at the direction to where she is looking. 

It was Cedric laying down on the field with Harry clutching on his side. They were both covered in sweat. But Harry was mostly covered in dirt and blood too. 

Cedric wasn't moving at all. He didn't even blinked. 

Then it dawned onto me that he was dead. 

Tears started brimming down my cheeks, I was almost about to fall on ground when Draco caught me in his arms, pulling me into a tight hug. 

For whatever is happening out there, it surely wouldn't be good.
