It was a beautiful day on the grounds of Hogwarts and all the students were outside having a great time. Harry and Ginny were sitting in the Transfiguration Courtyard, studying. They were in different years but that never stopped them from using the excuse that they had to study together. Hermione and Minnie were on the other side of the courtyard.
"Hermione." Minnie said as she looked over at Ginny. "Do you think that they are spending to much time together?" She shook her head and turned to Hermione.
"No they are boyfriend and girlfriend now, so it is only right for them to spend time together." Hermione answered without taking her face out of her potions book.
"Well it is not right they are never apart." Minnie was looking over at them with disgust in her face.
"What are you two ladies talking about?" Ron walked over to them and sat down beside Hermione.
"Well if you have to know we are discussing how wrong it is for Harry and Ginny to be spending so much time together." Minnie looked over at Ron who had just seen Harry kiss his sister.
"No Minnie you were saying how wrong it was. I think that it is perfectly fine." Hermione smiled while she slowly looked out of her book.
"Hermione I have to agree with Minnie. I hardly see Harry anymore he is always with my sister. I think they need to stop also." Ron smiled at Hermione.
"You two are so much alike and you do not even realize it." Hermione closed her book and looked at them.
"What is that suppose to mean? I am nothing like Ronald." Minnie spat.
"Well in this case you are, because you are both jealous of Harry and Ginny spending so much time together. It is because they are not spending it with you." Hermione smiled and walked away.
"She is a piece of work." Ron left, he turned away and shouted. "By the way Minnie I am nothing like you!"
Minnie smiled and went to the viaduct entrance where Draco usually hung out. She got there and the only ones there were Crabbe, Goyle and Pansy.
"Hey have you guys seen Draco?" Minnie walked over to the group.
"No he was in Potions class last time I seen him." Pansy gave Minnie a cold stare.
'Oh ok can you let him know that I was looking for him, when you see him." Minnie gave Pansy a snooty grin and strutted off.
The last task was upon Harry and he was worried about what he might have to do. The night of the task Harry was unable to sleep.
"Harry why are you still awake?" Ron tried to sneak in the room without anyone seeing him.
"I can't sleep with the task tomorrow and all. It is really stressful." Harry smiled at Ron. "Where were you?" Harry sat up in his bed.
"Nowhere just working on some last minute homework." Ron crawled into his bed.
The next morning came and Harry was working on only three hours of sleep. When he went down to the common room the others had a banner that read 'Good Luck Harry'.
"What is all this?" Harry smiled when he seen Ginny sitting there.
"We are having a small good luck party for you. So good luck." Minnie ran over and hugged Harry.
"Thanks everyone, so I will have to eat breakfast quick and then head to the Champion tent to get prepared for the task so I will so you all later." Harry went over to Ginny and kissed her.
Ginny, Minnie, Ron and Hermione were all on their way to the Quiddich Pitch where Harry was about to start the third challenge. They were all thrown back and knocked unconscious, when they woke up they were in some sort of maze.
"Where are we?" Minnie asked as she sat up and looked around.
"We have no idea, it looks like some sort of a maze." Hermione stood up to look around.
"Look!" Ron shouted and made them all jump.
"What? Ron what is it?" Ginny stood up.
"It is the Triwizard cup, this is the third task we are in the third task. We will have to sit here and wait for one of the Champions to came so we can touch it and it will get us out of here." Ron sat back on the ground and the girls stared at him in shock.
"How did you know that ?" Minnie asked.
"I studied everything on the tournament and that is usually what happens at the end they have to touch the cup to win." Ron grinned, because he outsmarted the girls.
"What is with that really weird grin?" Hermione asked with a laugh.
"What do you mean?" Ron looked at her.
"I think that he is smiling like that because he knows something that we did not. Ron but the only thing is we really don't care about the cup." Ginny gave him a evil smirk and sat down.
They waited in the maze, and every chance they had they made fun and teased Ron.
"You guys really have to grow up." Ron was getting frustrated with them.
"Look it is Harry and Cedric they are coming and it looks like they are tied." Minnie sat up, the rest followed.
Harry and Cedric came running towards the cup, when they seen the others they stopped dead in their track.
"What in the bloody hell are you four doing in here." Harry's face was in shock.
"We have no idea we were waiting for one of you guys so that we could touch the cup and get out of here, so lets do it." Minnie looked at everyone.
They all circled the cup and put their hands on it. They all spun around and landed with a loud thud on a dark cold ground.
"This is not the Quiddich Pitch." Cedric stood up and looked around.
"No it isn't. Where are we then." Ginny asked as she grabbed Harry's hand.
"Look, it is the Dark Lord. Harry he brought us here." Minnie pointed at the hooded figure in the distance. Harry jumped in front of them all.
"You mean he-who-must-not-be-named?" Ron's eyes widened with fear.
"Yes Ronald. He is the only one named Dark Lord." Hermione answered.
The hooded figures came towards them.
"I thought I told you Harry and Minnie were to touch the cup. What is with the others Igor." Voldermort's cold voice ran threw everyone.
"Igor, he is the head of Drumstrang, he was suppose to be ill today." Cedric whispered to the rest.
"Hi there, you all probably know who I am. The only thing is I do not know who all you guys are?" Voldermort smiled and faced them. They all jumped back in sight of him. "So you are all afraid of me?" He laughed. "So who are you all?" He asked.
They were silent. "Well answer the Dark Lord." Bellatrix came out of the darkness.
"You know who I am you fools!" Minnie snapped and stood beside Harry.
"Yes you foolish girl I know Minerva Snape and Harry Potter. Who are the ones that are behind you guys." "I am Ginerva Weasley." Ginny came and stood beside Harry.
"Oh a Weasley, nice. You are Harry's girlfriend to." He smiled.
"I am Cedric Diggory." He came forward beside Minnie.
"You are the one in the Tournament with Harry." Voldermort kept getting closer and closer to them.
"I am Ronald Weasley." Ron stood beside Ginny.
"You are her brother, right. I really do not like Arthur and his blood traitor family. What about you?" He looked over at Hermione.
"I am Hermione Granger." She slowly went beside Ron.
" You are the mud blood…." Voldermort's eyes lit up.
"… do not call her that you scum." Ginny interrupted.
"You are a feisty one also. Well that will not be good for you." Bellatrix gazed at her.
"Well let's see." Voldermort looked at all of them. "Crucio." he hit Hermione and threw her backwards she hit her head and became unconscious. "Well that rids of the mud blood."
Ron ran over to Hermione and grabbed her. The rest were in shock and did nothing.
"So I wonder who is next?" He looked at all of them standing there.
"None of them." Minnie went towards him, Harry grabbed her arm. "You want me take me just leave them alone. They have nothing to do with this." Minnie pulled away from Harry and was now standing in front of Voldermort.
"Really you would give yourself for your friends?" He put his wand to her neck and smiled.
"Yes, they do not need to be hut just do what you need to do and let them all go." Her eyes were filled with fear.
"You are a very brave girl willing to die to protect your friends." Voldermort looked into her eyes, he could not see into her mind. "Your father has taught you how to close your mind. Very smart." Voldermort sneered. "But that will not stop me from doing this Crucio!" He hit her with the spell.
She fell to the ground and screamed in pain, he held the cruse for a few moments then broke the hold when Harry ran over and knocked his wand out of hand. Cedric pulled Minnie over where they were all at.
"Harry Potter you stupid boy. Accio wand." Voldermort's wand flew into his hand. "See I am to powerful for that you will not beat me at the mere age of 14. I am much better then that."
"Expelliarmus!" Harry shouted.
At the same time Bellatrix shouted. "Avada Kedavra!"
Harry and Bellatrix wands met each other. James came out of the light that was produced from the wands hitting each other.
"Harry when I tell you to let go of the wand do so and touch the cup. I can hold all of them off for a few moments so be quick. Harry do it now." James looked at his son.
Harry broke the hold they all ran to the cup. Ron grabbed Hermione, Harry pulled Ginny and Cedric was carrying Minnie who was shaking and in tears. They all touched the cup and arrive back on the Quiddich pitch all of the people gasped.
"Harry, Cedric? What is going on? How did they get into the maze?" Albus ran to them h was in shock.
"We were knocked out and when we woke up we were there." Ginny answered for them.
Snape and Lily came running out of the audience. When Severus realized that it was his daughter that was in hysterics. He tried to grab her but she would not let go of Cedric.
"No! don't touch me! Leave me alone!" Her voice was shaky and her face was buried into Cedric's chest.
"Minnie it is Daddy. Everything is ok now. Come here." he pulled her off of Cedric. She latched onto her father and was still in tears.
"Daddy!" Her voiced jumped.
"It is ok Minnie. Just breath." He kissed her head and she dozed off.
