I'd really appreciate it if you left a review :) Thanks
It Has Begun
I want to apologise sincerely for writing what I did about Krum last time. I was really annoyed at him and what Skeeter had written, but I never really wanted anything bad to happen to anyone.
Cedric Diggory is dead. He was killed in the third task. It's all just happened and I feel in shock. I don't know what is going on and everything is all a bit hazy. All I remember is Harry landing back with the Triwizard Cup and Diggory's body. At first, we were all really excited that it was two Hogwarts Champions returning, but then we realised something was wrong. Diggory wasn't moving.
That was when it sunk in. Someone had been killed and Harry was announcing that he was back. You Know Who is back. All the signs have been pointing to it and it is true.
Harry saw him with his own eyes. Harry fought with him. Harry saw the Death Eaters. It's terrifying. I don't want him to be back. I don't want to live in fear of being killed all the time.
The worst part is that the one who put Harry's name in the Cup was someone I have admired all year. Moody. He turned Malfoy in to a ferret for us, he helped Harry in the first task. We thought he genuinely wanted Harry to win (which I guess he did), but it was all for a different motive.
Moody (well, Mr Crouch's son in disguise) made the Cup a Portkey. It was all planned out. The Portkey would take Harry to a graveyard, where Pettigrew was waiting to use him to help him restore You Know Who. And it all worked. Moody/Crouch did all this right under Dumbledore's nose. No one had any idea.
He has been helping Harry all year, but no one said anything. I should have noticed. Someone should have noticed, but no one did.
No one expected Diggory to be there, though. They touched the Cup at the same time. Of course, it didn't bother someone like You Know Who. He just killed him. I never should have wished anything bad to happen to anyone. If I had known this was going to happen, I wouldn't have said anything.
Yeah, I wasn't Diggory's number one fan, but I didn't want him to die. It's horrible.
Harry is all a bit dazed at the moment, but what he has managed to tell us is that Pettigrew was there with You Know Who and he needed Harry's blood to regenerate him. Well, it worked and soon he was almost fully human again and he summoned his Death Eaters.
Obviously, I don't actually know what happened there, but I think it is safe to say You Know Who tried to kill Harry and failed again. It's amazing how most people die when they come within one hundred yards of You Know Who, yet this is like the fourth time Harry has escaped. I'd be really angry too!
In his confused mumblings, Harry mentioned something about their wands connecting and his parents protecting him. I have no idea what that means, but somehow he was luckier than Cedric Diggory (only because You Know Who wanted to kill Harry personally, I think).
I still can't believe that Diggory is actually dead. His parents were devastated. I just couldn't imagine what it would be like to have that happen. All my family are still alive and if anyone has ever died, it's only been of old age.
But I guess it's just a reminder that the darkest wizard of all time really is back. People are going to start to panic...if the Ministry tells them that is.
Apparently they are refusing to believe Harry's story. Dumbledore believes it and heaps of people heard Crouch Jnr confess under a truth potion. Isn't that what those potions are for? To get the truth? And it came out. I can't understand why they won't listen when You Know Who's most faithful supporter proudly confessed and gave a reason for everything that has happened this year.
All of it led to trying to get Harry to that graveyard.
Again, I am only going off what I have heard Dumbledore and Harry say, but apparently Crouch Jnr wasn't really dead (forgot to mention that earlier). He was being kept my Mr Crouch under the Imperius Curse for many years. It was his mother who had died (she was in disguise-Polyjuice Potion).
He had been sitting right behind us at the World Cup and it was him who set off the Dark Mark. I don't know how we all didn't see it. It was so obvious. He was at Hogwarts the whole time.
All those strange things I have mentioned...it was all him. He tried to kill Harry! He did kill Mr Crouch and indirectly got Cedric Diggory killed. I don't understand...I can't comprehend why anyone would wish bad things to happen to someone.
And how did Dumbledore not realise? I thought he was the type of person to be aware of these things, but it doesn't seem he is. It's worrying me, you know. If a Death Eater can get past Dumbledore, then what chance do the rest of us have?
Now that I think about it, he has actually let You Know Who or a supporter of You Know Who in to Hogwarts every year since I have been here.
First there was Quirrell, who was walking around with him on the back of his head. Then there was all the Chamber of Secrets business. Sure, he was just a memory, but people were being petrified. Hermione was petrified. Then Sirius Black was roaming the grounds last year. Yeah, so it turns out he wasn't as bad as we all thought he was, but still...he was there when we all thought he was a supporter.
And now someone has used Polyjuice Potion to infiltrate Hogwarts and a student has ended up dead. I'm starting to really doubt Dumbledore's ability to know these things, but without him, I don't feel safe.
And after all this, it turns out Crouch Jnr was keeping the real Moody in his trunk this whole time. I feel sorry for the bloke. Been kept alive only so you can have your hair ripped from you every day. I think I would prefer to be dead.
Dumbledore was so angry. I have never seen him so mad before. He was furious with Fudge for refusing to believe Harry's story. They had a huge screaming match just outside the hospital wing not so long ago. It was crazy. I doubt he would have been so angry if everything hadn't happened before.
Maybe he was upset about Diggory being...killed. I mean, it was a bit of a shock. No one saw it coming, but I suppose we should have. After all, I have been saying all year, the evidence pointed to You Know Who returning. It was only going to be a matter of time.
Oh, and on a side note, I am so glad I don't have to keep the secret about Sirius being alive anymore. It was starting to get on my nerves. Mum and dad carrying on about him still being out there...I just wanted to tell them he wasn't dangerous.
But they all know now, which is a relief. And it could be a sign that Sirius mightn't have to stay on the run for much longer now. I hope so. He doesn't deserve it and I suppose the streets won't be safe anymore. Nothing will be safe anymore. Not since You Know Who is back. Someone has already died and he's been alive for less than twenty-four hours.
