Chapter 9: The Muggle Knight

We all gathered at the Great Hall for Cedric's ceremony. I couldn't beleive that he is dead and it's all Voldermorts fault and partly mine. I should have known that he would do something like that. I guess I was to stupid to think that he wouldn't do such a thing.

"Harry," Hermione whispered.

I looked and I saw that Hermione had saved a spot for me. I sat next to my friends and we listened to Dumbldore's speech. Through out the speech I tried not to cry so I wouldn't look like a whimp. I didn't want to cry especially when it was my fault that Cedric was in the graveyard.

After the speech we all slowly left the Hall. Most of the girls were crying and all of the guys were trying to cheer them up.

"Harry?" Ron asked.

"Yes."

"So what are you going to do about that trattourus wh-"

"Don't," I growled.

"But what arey you going to do?" Ron asked.

I turned my face. I had no idea what I was going to do with Sonya. I didn't even know if I could face her not knowing if it was some sort of trap. "I don't know. I'll figure out something."

"Do you want us to help you?" Hermione asked.

"No. I've put you guys thorugh enough," I said walking away from them.

"Yeah right," Ron said.

I stopped to listen.

"Harry we have been with you from the begining. I think you owe us a lot more credit then that," Ron said.

"He's right Harry. Let us help you," Hermione begged.

I listened to what they were saying. In all honesty they were with me from the begining but I wanted to face this alone. I turned around to face them. "Look you guys I know you want to help but I think I should at least do this on my own. That much I should do. Besides I think I should practice talking to girls that I like insead of having my friends get there hands dirty."

"You got us there mate," Ron said.

I was a bit cheered up. I turned around and walked back to my dorm.

I finally came home to Surey the one place I wasn't welcomed to and know that I found out that Sonya might be a Malfoy I felt less welcomed. For the past two weeks of summer I mostly sat on my bed thinking how I would approch her and how the heck I would help.

XxXxXxXxXx

I went for a walk in the park wondering how I was going to approch Sonya still. I haven't seen her the whole summer and it was almost time to head to Hogwarts in two weeks. This summer seemed a bit slow without Sonya talking to me. I smiled as I saw the park remembering how she would dance around using all of the tools nessacary for her graceful dancing.

I sat on the swing looking at the Daily Prophets. There wasn't much to read about just that things at the ministry is going hairwire.

"Hey Potter," I heard my cousin say. I looked up and I saw that it was his crew who beat up little kids and are on the wrestling team. That was just so pathetic.

"Hey Big D. Beat up another 10 year old?" I asked.

"This one deserved it," he smirked.

"Yeah," all of his friends cheered.

"5 against 1 very brave," I smirked.

"Well your one to talk. Moaning in your sleep every night," he said. "At least I'm not afraid of my pillow." All of his friends roared in laughter.

"Shut up."

"Don't kill Cedric," Dudley said.

"Shut up."

"He's going to kill me mom," Dudley said.

"Shut up."

"Where is your mom? Where is your mom Potter? Is she dead?" Dudley's friends said O's at the burn he just gave me. "Is she dead?"

I grabbed my wand and ran infront of him pointing my wand at his neck. All of his friends laughted the threat. Before I could do anything the clouds overhead started to turn gray.

"What are you doing?" Dudley asked.

"I'm not doing anything," I said as the winds blew harder.

"Come on Dudley," his friends said.

They all started to run and me and Dudley started to run.

We came to the alley that lead to Surrey. As we walked down the lights started to flicker and the room started to get cold. I looked around to see what was going on. Next thing I knew skeleton claws wrapped around my throat. I knew what creature this was. A Dementor.

"Dudley run," I said with what little air I had.

Dudley started to run but slipped on ice. Then another one came and started to suck Dudley's happiness. The one holding me was doing the same. As the Dementor feed on my happiness I got my wand and stabbed him. He dropped me but my wand fell out of my hand. I walked back to get my wand and did the spell. The Dementor flew away with the hit and I did the same to the dementor over Dudley.

I ran over to him but something came around my neck. I felt the same hands but this one was struggling to kill me. I tried to use my wand but it knocked it out of my hand.

As the air was leaving my lungs I saw someone come through the the alley way that we were trying to get to. The person was wearing a black tank-top, leather pants, and this person had their hair down that came down to her back. She held a sword infront of her. The color of the sword was white that looked like a white sun.

She came charging at me and stabbed the Dementor in the face. The skeleton hands let me go as the person stabbed deeper into the dementors face.

I feel to the ground taking in some air. I turned around to see the dementor slowly evaporate as the person cleaned their sword.

"You were lucky," the person said in a girl voice.

"Thanks for your help," I grudged to say.

"Just be carful from know on," she said. She started to walk where the park was.

"Wait," I barked. She stopped. "What is your name?"

"Just call me," she said turning her head to face me. "The Muggle Knight." She walked away. What an interesting name? I thought. I turned around to help Dudley when Mrs. Figg arrived.
