Daughter of Power
J.K. Rowling owns Harry Potter.
Devon walked towards a bridge. Harry and Hermione were talking. "Harry!" Devon called, walking closer to them. Harry turned to face her and Hermione left. "How are you?" Devon asked. "Fine." Harry replied. "Water. Take a bath in the Prefects' bathroom. Bring your egg. Cedric told me." Devon informed then walked away from him, hoping Harry would listen.
Devon lied on her bed, thinking about what to do for the second task. Then she remembered, she can breathe under water. Naturally.
The ice cold water of the Black Lake burned Devon's skin when she jumped in. "Bad idea to wear a bikini in the freezing cold." Devon whispered to herself. She reached the bottom of the lake soon enough. There were five people, frozen. Fleur Delacour's sister, Cho Chang, Hermione, Stella, and Ron. She freed Stella and wanted to save the others. Harry had come and gotten Ron free but he stayed. Cedric and Viktor had come and gone. "Where's Fleur?" Harry asked. "I have no idea." Devon replied. They took out their wands and saved Fleur's sister. The two started swimming up. Harry stopped. He was being attacked by octopus-like creatures. Devon sent the three statues up. She cast a spell to make the ugly creatures go away. Harry started to sink. Devon grabbed him. "Ascendio!" She said holding her wand up. The two shot out of the water and onto the wooden platform, Devon on top of Harry. She sat up. Someone handed her a robe. I know those hands, Devon thought. She grabbed the person's hand and brought him forward, intro her sight. "Draco." Devon breathed.
Dumbledore announced Cedric as the winner and Devon AND Harry were in second place for "outstanding moral fiber". Devon's arm started hurting more than it usually did. It was overflowing with names. "Bartimus Crouch Junior, Severus Snape, Igor Karkaroff, Lucius Malfoy" appeared under the spell she's used to hide her dark mark for this task. "Lucius." Devon's head snapped up, searching the crowd. She cast her eyes on him, then got up and ran as fast as she could.
Devon was in Snape's personal potions closet with Igor and Snape himself. Igor was trying to convince Snape that Devon's father would return to power. Devon had turned part-snake again, by her own will this time. "Even I know it Ssseverusss. And I never thought he would." Devon hissed. Snape's door opened. Harry was standing outside of it. Igor walked out. Devon stayed hidden, hopeful Harry didn't see her.
