I was in the great hall sitting by Hermione and Ron. The goblet of fire was lit, I hope for once that I will have a quiet year.
"Now the moment you've all been waiting for, the champions selection!" Dumbledore declared. Everyone was looking at the goblet eagerly. The flames of the goblet turned red as a piece of paper came out. "The Durmstrang champion is Viktor Krum!"
Viktor got up and headed for the trophy room. He seemed very serious and determined, Durmstrang is known for the Dark Arts.
"The Beauxbatons Champion is Fleur Delacour!" A girl with silver blonde hair got up from the table that ravenclaw was sitting at and went through the same door that Viktor went through to get to the trophy room.
"The Hogwarts Champion is Cedric Diggory!" I watched as Cedric got up from the Hufflepuff table and headed for the trophy room. Looks like for once I will have a quiet year. The goblet of fire flashed red again, a piece of paper came out. Oh no not again!
"You gotta be kidding me." I say, quietly. Hermione looks at me confused then realizes that there was another piece of paper released from the goblet. She leaned over and whispered in my ear.
"I know you didn't put your name, Ron will probably be jealous. But if he is your true friend then he won't turn his back on you." She whispers. There's at least one person who believes me.
"Harry Potter!" Dumbledore declares. All of a sudden the other champions come running back into the goblet room. I feel my magic connect with the other champions, my body started changing. My muscles became more defined, I grew 5 inches. My magic started to change, it felt darker, I felt like a second person was in my head. That because I am in your head, you see you are part of a prophecy that has been long forgotten. I am one of your ancestors, go to the goblins to learn who I am. Anyway there is a prophecy you need to know about. The dark four shall become one, when the flame is ignited once more. The firebird shall help the scarred one love again. Dark one shall show the scarred one what darkness truly is. The one of loyalty shall show the scarred one his true heritage. Together the kings and queen of darkness shall rise and restore the balance that was lost by the pretenders.What? I will tell you more later, now go. I felt the second person, who has a female voice, leave. Slowly I started walking towards the door to the trophy room. Fleur was looking at me shocked, Cedric was looking at me concerned, Viktor was looking at me impressed. Once I entered the trophy room, with everyone else following behind me. Dumbledore came running at me, he looked at me shocked. "Harry did you find a way around the age line?"
"No, sir I did not." I answered, coldly. All the teachers were looking at me concerned.
"Did you ask an older student to put your name in?" Dumbledore asked. Why would I do that? Someone is trying to kill me each year, one is the older students could be one of Voldemort's spies.
"No, sir." I say, slightly annoyed.
"Potter, watch your tone." Snape sneers at me. In time my descendant, he will learn his place.
"That boy is lying." Madame Maxime commented, furiously.
"I demand to resubmit all of my students." Headmaster Karkaroff demanded.
"Can anyone tell me, why I felt a bond with the other champions?" I asked, hopefully. Everyone looked at me surprised, headmaster Dumbledore looked at me worried.
"Harry, you don't know what just happened?" Cedric asked, amazed. I noticed the champions were all wincing in pain, my magic was calling me to them.
"No." I answer, confused.
"Your magic guardian should have told you." Fleur remarked, with a thick French accent.
"What's a magic guardian?" I asked. All of the sudden the room became silent and everyone looked at me amazed.
"You don't know about your magical status in the wizarding world!" Viktor asked, furiously with a thick German accent.
"I was raised by my muggle relatives." I remarked, bitterly. As I started thinking about how they were treated, I started thinking about Uncle Vernon telling me my parents died in a car crash. They died as loving parents protecting their son.
"Harry, the bond you feel with the other champions is a soul bond. Basically you are now married to them." Dumbledore explained.
"How dare you put him with those filthy muggles!" Viktor yelled. I wonder why he is so upset about me living with my relatives. He isn't the only one, 'arry. Wait, Fleur how is this possible? When you started thinking about your relatives we all saw your memories of them. Wait, you're saying you know about how they treated me? Oui
"I am confused, what is so important about where I live?" I asked, puzzled about what is going on.
"Harry, get over now!" Cedric ordered. I noticed that all of the other champions were in pain. Fleur looked at me and motioned for me to come over to them. As soon as I was close enough to all three of them, they hugged me and held me tightly.
"I believe that we have all had enough surprises for the night." Dumbledore announced. "Tomorrow we will inform you all of when the first task is."
"Sir, what about sleeping arrangements for the night?" I ask, worried. My descendant, I have already arranged sleeping quarters for all four of you. Just tell your greater good headmaster Ut dici colubris ad latera in tenebris illi regiae maiestati, in iure praedae. In English that translates to I claim the snakes chambers for dark royalty, through right of conquest.
"You can all sleep in your respective quarters." Dumbledore answered. All the other champions were looking at him displeased.
"No, I will not allow you cause them to suffer. Ut dici colubris ad latera in tenebris illi regiae maiestati, in iure praedae." I say, protectively. All of a sudden I feel where the Basilisk bit in the chamber of secrets start to hurt again. I noticed headmaster Karkaroff started to pale at me saying that. So did Snape, maybe they know about the prophecy.
"Harry, you can't sleep there with your soulmates." Dumbledore remarked, in his grandfather's tone.
"Actually I can, since I am not a part of Hogwarts for the duration of this tournament. Since my name came out of the goblet of fire without a school listed." I reveal.
"Therefore, Harry doesn't have to listen to your sir because he isn't your responsibility anymore. He is our's and in the eyes of the ministry he can be considered an adult because the goblet emancipated him." Cedric added. Dumbledore seemed annoyed at this, but let it go.
"Very well then, however I expect all of you to act accordingly." Dumbledore commented.
"Of course, we will all be in the grand hall for breakfast tomorrow morning. Then we can continue this after we all have had a good night's rest." I replied.
"We will both report to our headmaster/headmistress before breakfast." Fleur and Viktor said in unison. Headmaster Karkaroff and Madam Maxime nodded their approval. I turned and left the trophy room and headed for the perfect's bathroom on the second floor. The champions followed me, I could tell they were deep in thought about something. Maybe Fleur is talking to both of them through the mind link. Finally when we arrived at the perfect's bathroom, I could tell that they were confused.
"Harry, why are we in the girl's perfect bathroom?" Cedric asked, confused.
"Remember when people were getting petrified my second year. The same year that the entire school thought I was the heir of Slytherin?" I asked, thinking about what is probably still down in the chamber.
"Yes, why?" He asked, confused.
"Well, the chamber of secrets does exist but only a Parselmouth can open it." I revealed. Cedric was looking at me amazed, they are going to be surprised with what they see down there. When you are in the chamber say in Parseltongue the prophecy of the dark four has been bonded by the flame. We seek chambers free from those loyal to the pretenders. One's worthy for dark royalty. Thank you, ancestor.
"Wait, the chamber of secrets exists?" Cedric asked, amazed. I nodded my head yes.
"Open." I hissed, in Parseltongue. The sink moved and revealed the tunnel. I wonder if I hiss stair, will some appear?"Stairs"
A set stone slab stairs appeared, and I started walking down the stairs. The other champions followed behind me, as we went further down it got colder. Finally we arrived at the bottom of the stairs. I walked down the corridor that leads to the chamber. Say restore Slytherin's founder's legacy once more in Parseltongue. I can't wait to finally know who you are.
"Harry, the passageway is blocked." Viktor commented. I looked at him and grinned.
"Restore Slytherin's founder's legacy once more." I hissed. The pile of rubble starts going back to where it belongs. Finally the pile of rubble was cleared. I walked over the door that leads to the chamber. "Open."
Finally, the door opened and revealed the carcass of the Basilisk. I started having flashbacks of the night that happened. That night I found out that Lord Voldemort is actually a half-blood who's real is actually Tom Marvolo Riddle.
"Harry, did you kill the basilisk?" Viktor asked, impressed.
"Yes, with the sword of Gryffindor. I did get bitten by it but luckily Fawkes Dumbledore's phoenix saved me by crying tears." I answered, gladly. The champions started looking at one another alarmed.
"Harry, did you think it was odd that Fawkes appeared right after you were bitten." Cedric remarked, carefully. Yes, it was odd that appeared right after I was bitten.
"Yes, it is odd however we can continue talking once we have our chambers ready." I say. As I walked into the chambers. Now say what I told you earlier. Okay, give me a minute.
"the prophecy of the dark four has been bonded by the flame. We seek chambers free from those loyal to the pretenders. One's worthy for dark royalty." I hissed. All of a sudden a black smoke filled the chambers. Everyone started to tense up as the smoke filled the chambers. Tell your soulmates to cast the spell abscondam a nobis ignotas, a periculo defendat, custodiat nos da nobis omne quod opus est vinculum. Tell them to cast the spell like the spell Expecto Patronum. Instead of thinking about your happy memory. Think about the bond you now shall and how you want to protect it.
"Harry, what is going?!" Fleur yelled, worried.
"It's hard to explain, everyone get ready and on my count cast this spell: abscondam a nobis ignotas, a periculo defendat, custodiat nos da nobis omne quod opus est vinculum. The only wand movements you need to do are the same as the spell Expectco Patronum. Also you need to think about the bond we now share and how you want to protect it." I explained. Everyone grabbed their wands and pointed it at the smoke. It started getting closer to us. "3..2..1..now! abscondam a nobis ignotas, a periculo defendat, custodiat nos da nobis omne quod opus est vinculum!"
A sliver blast came out of all of our wands, the smoke started to clear. As it cleared the chamber looked cleaner and it now had statues of knights standing by four black doors. I walked towards one of the doors, and opened it. Inside was a massive bedroom with a sitting area by a fireplace, a mini kitchen, a bed that all four of us could sleep together on. It seemed all of our things were already in our new sleeping quarters.
"Wow, this is amazing." Cedric commented. As he looked around the sleeping quarters. It was a combination of all of our styles, overall it felt very homey .
"Before going to sleep for the night, I presume you all would like an explanation about everything as well as a discussion of our soul bond?" I asked. They all looked like 'yes, and don't be so surprised about it'.
"Harry, how did you know all of those advanced spells?" Viktor asked, intrigued. You can tell them about me since tomorrow we are all going to you may begin preparing for what's coming. Are you sure?yes, now stop arguing with me.
"When my name came out of the goblet of fire. My body changed and grew into the body that I should've had for someone my age. However my magic became darker, but that isn't the most interesting thing that happened to me. I heard a female voice in my head that told about a prophecy that has been long forgotten. So have any of you heard of the dark four prophecy?" I explained, calmly. My life at Hogwarts is never calm. But now I won't have to feel so lonely anymore. Fleur looked at me surprised and Viktor looked at me coldly.
"Yes." Viktor and Fleur answered. Cedric looked at me confused.
"How do you know about it?" I asked.
"Durmstrang is known for the dark arts, the prophecy is mentioned in our history books." Viktor answered, calmly.
"Harry, I am a Veela. The prophecy of the dark four is important to the Veela community. I grew up hearing stories about the day that prophecy is fulfilled." Fleur explained, nervously.
"Harry, what is the prophecy they are talking about?" Cedric asked, confused.
"The dark four shall become one, when the flame is ignited once more. The firebird shall help the scarred one love again. Dark one shall show the scarred one what darkness truly is. The loyal one shall show the scarred one his heritage. Together the kings and queen of darkness shall rise and restore the balance that was lost by the pretenders." I answered. Everyone was looking at me shocked.
"What are you saying Harry?" Fleur asked, intrigued.
"The prophecy first part of the prophecy has been fulfilled." I revealed. "You, Fleur are the firebird. Viktor is the dark one, Cedric is the loyal one."
"You are the scarred one." Viktor commented. I nodded my head in agreement.
"It makes sense because Veela can do fire elemental magic, Durmstrang is known for the Dark Arts, which means Viktor has an understanding of that kind of magic. That Hogwarts and all of the british magic world has basically outlawed the magic. I am in Hufflepuff which is known for it's loyalty. Harry has fought the dark lord who I think is one of the pretenders the prophecy talked about. From those confrontations he received a scar that has made him into a celebrity. That scar came at the cost of his parents' life. In order for this prophecy to be fulfilled, we must all help Harry. Because I believe that this bond was formed because we could help Harry in some way. Plus in the prophecy Harry was mentioned three times, which is the second most magical number. Something tells me that this tournament will greatly affect the outcome of our bond." Cedric commented, while deep in thought.
"I think that you're right Cedric because there are three tasks. Each will test in a different way but because of the soul bond. I think it will test us, in our trust, strength, and unity." Fleur agreed.
"Igor had us read about the Tri-wizard tournament before we came here. I found out that the first task tests your bravery, the second is an object, the third is a test of your mind." Viktor commented.
"I think you all are correct, you all bring up an interesting point about the tasks. Now that I think more about bravery doesn't always mean physical strength. Which makes me think the first tasks may involve us playing to our own personal strengths. The second task may involve us getting an object, and trusting one another to ensure our own safety. The final task may test how well we know each other, and how we approach challenges." I explained. I am pleased to see you thinking about this carefully. Since the soul bond now changes a lot of things, however remember to trust them. Tom Marvolo Riddle is no longer yours to defeat, it is now theirs as well. "Anyway, the voice that I heard is one of my ancestors. She has been helping me cast those complicated spells. Tomorrow, she would like all of us to go to Gringotts."
"This is a lot to take in." Cedric commented, amazed.
"I am not surprised about us bonding because you all are immune to my allure." Fleur remarked. "I will need to reach out to my family to inform them about the prophecy because it affects all Veela and what your country call half-breeds."
"That aside, how do you feel about the soul bond?" I asked, nervously. They probably are annoyed about being bonded with me.
"I am glad that we're bonded, because it is nice to be around people who actually want to get to know me for who I am. For once it doesn't have to do with how I look." Fleur commented, joyfully.
"I am glad to be bonded to people that understand the struggles of fame or in a similar way."Viktor commented, while smiling slightly.
"I don't know what to think. So far I think I am going to enjoy this." Cedric answered.
"I am going to warn you all now, trouble always has a habit of finding. Every year I have been at Hogwarts, my life has been in danger somehow." I remarked, carefully. Fleur looked at me possessively, so did Viktor.
"You are ours, 'arry. We will protect but let's make one thing clear you have to tell us when something is wrong." Fleur ordered. Feathers started growing from her neck.
"I will be training you and Cedric in the dark arts, since it is clear to me you are both lacking. Given from what I have heard about the British ministry of Magic." Viktor commented, coldly. Viktor is scary, when he is possessive.
"Do I get any say in those conditions?" I asked, hopefully.
"No!" All of them said. Things are going to be interesting for now.
Who is Harry's ancestor?
