Chapter 22: Voldemort's resurrection
I watched as the man was starting a ritual. He dropped the body in the cauldron. First, he added a bone in the cauldron. "Bone of the father, unwillingly given," The man said. "Flesh from the servant," He said as he cut his own hand off. I watched with disgust as the hand dropped in the cauldron. The man looked at us. "And the blood of the enemy..." he said. He went over to Harry and made a cut in his arm. Harry cried out in pain. "Dad!" I said. "Forcibly taken," The man grunted. I tried breaking free from the ropes as the man walked over to me.
"Back off!" I cried. He didn't listen to me and placed the knife on my arm. He made a cut on my arm. I screamed in pain as he cut my arm. My arm started bleeding. The man then went to the cauldron and tapped the knife as the blood dripped in the cauldron. "The Dark Lord shall rise again," The man said. Harry kept screaming in pain as the fire was bursting from the cauldron. The man ran away from the cauldron as black smoke appeared from it. In place of the cauldron was forming a man. A man with black robes, and a snake-like face. I recognized this man. He was Lord Voldemort.
I watched with fear as Voldemort looked at his new body. He had grey skin, red eyes, a snake-like nose, and wore black robes. Voldemort chuckled. Harry and I were still in our restraints and I kept trying to escape but the ropes that held me down were too tight on me. Voldemort walked up to the man. "My wand, Wormtail," Voldemort said. Wormtail bowed and gave Voldemort his wand.
"Hold out your arm," Voldemort said. "Master...Thank you, master." Wormtail said. "The other arm, Wormtail," Voldemort said. Voldemort grabbed Wormtail's hand and poked his wand into his hand. Dark clouds surrounded us as we heard howling in the distance.
Smoke on the ground appeared and people in dark clothing and masks appeared. Voldemort greeted his followers."Welcome, my friends. Thirteen years it's been and yet...and yet here you stand before me as though it were only yesterday." Voldemort said. "I confess myself disappointed; not one of you tried to find me." Voldemort said. One by one, he began removing the masks from his followers. All of them were laying on the floor. "Not even you...Lucius." Voldemort said as he removed his mask. "My lord, had I detected any sign, a whisper of your whereabouts," Lucius said.
"There were signs my slippery friend, and more than whispers." Voldemort said. "I reassure you, my lord. I have never renounced the old ways. The face." Lucius said. Lucius explained to the dark lord how he returned. "I returned," Wormtail said walking up to them. Voldemort walked up to him. "Out of fear, not loyalty. Still, you have proven yourself useful these past few months, Wormtail." Voldemort said. Voldemort gave Wormtail a new hand. "Thank you, master, thank you," Wormtail sobbed. Voldemort walked over to Cedric who was lying dead on the ground.
Voldemort then touched his face with his foot. "Such a handsome boy," Voldemort said. "Don't touch him!" Harry shouted. "Harry. Oh, I'd almost forgotten you were here, standing on the bones of my father." Voldemort said. "Yeah," Harry whispered. I tried getting free of the ropes again but I couldn't because they were still too tight on me. Voldemort went over to me and lifted my chin up. My body was shaking with fear.
"And who is this special guest we have here?" Voldemort said with a smirk. "She's my daughter. Do anything to her and I'll kill you." Harry said in a dark tone. Voldemort walked up to Harry. "I'd introduce you. But word has it, you are almost as famous as me these days. 'The boy who lived'. How lies have fed your legend, Harry.
Shall I reveal what really happened that night? 13 years ago? How I truly lost my powers? Yes, shall I? You see when dear, sweet, Lily Potter gave her life for her only son, she provided the ultimate protection. I could not touch him. It was old magic;
Something I should have foreseen. But no matter, no matter, things have changed. I can touch you...now." Voldemort said. Voldemort reached his hand to Harry's forehead and touched his scar. Harry was screaming in pain. "Dad!" I cried. I had a few tears in my eyes and I was sobbing. After Voldemort removed his hand from Harry's hand, Voldemort spoke up. "Astonishing. What a few drops of your blood will do, eh Harry?" Voldemort said. Voldemort then released Harry. "Pick up your wand, Potter," Voldemort said. Harry fell to the ground, hesitant to get up.
Voldemort grew angry. "I said pick it up! Get up! Get up!" Voldemort yelled. Harry did as he said and stood up and picked his wand up. "You've been taught how to duel I presume. First, we bow to each other." Voldemort said. He then bowed down.
"Don't," I said. Voldemort got angry with me and with a wave of his wand, a gag appeared around my mouth to keep me from talking. "Don't you give me orders, young lady. A punishment for you will be in place after I finish off your father. Come on now, Harry. The niceties must be observed. Dumbledore wouldn't want you to forget your manners, would he? I said bow." Voldemort ordered. He used his wand and forced Harry to bow down. "That's better, and now," Voldemort said as he pushed Harry to the ground. Harry grunted in pain. I was shaking in fear as I was watching Harry being tortured. "Crucio!" Voldemort shouted as he pointed his wand at Harry. Harry was screaming in pain as the curse hit him.
After the curse was let loose Harry gasped for breath. "Atta boy, Harry. Your parents and your daughter would be proud. Especially your filthy muggle mother." Voldemort said. I got angry when Voldemort insulted my grandmother. I wanted to cuss at him but I couldn't because I was gagged. Harry tried to shoot a spell at Voldemort but Voldemort pushed him to the ground again. "I'm going to kill you, Harry Potter. Your daughter is going to watch as I kill you.
I'm going to destroy you after tonight; no one will ever again question my power. After tonight, if they speak of you, they will only speak of how you begged for death. Get up!" Voldemort yelled as he forced Harry to get up. I was really scared for my dad right now. Harry ran away to hide from Voldemort as he shot the killing curse on him but Harry dodged it. "Don't you turn your back on me, Harry Potter! I want you to look at me when I kill you! I want to see the light leave your eyes!" Voldemort yelled.
Harry came out of hiding and faced Voldemort. "Have it your way," Harry said. Harry shot the expelliarmus curse on Voldemort and Voldemort shot the killing curse on Harry. They blocked each other's spells. I saw green and red flashes coming from their wands. I tried my best to escape again but I could not. After a while, Harry broke the spell and quickly ran to the cup and took a hold of Cedric's body. "Don't worry! I will be back for you, Lana! I promise!" Harry shouted as he disappeared.
Voldemort screamed in anger when Harry escaped.
Harry's POV:
I have escaped from Voldemort but my daughter is in danger and Cedric is dead. I carried Cedric's body back as he requested me to do. People cheered when I returned but then they noticed that I was sobbing. The music stopped when Fleur screamed. "Harry!" Professor Dumbledore cried as he ran up to me. "No! No!" I cried as he was pulling me off of Cedric. "No! Stop!" I cried. "Harry, where is my wife?" Cato said when he ran up to me.
"He's back. He's back. Voldemort's back. Cedric asked me to bring his body back. I couldn't leave him, not there. And..." I choked back a sob. "He took my daughter. He has my daughter." I sobbed. I cried as Professor Dumbledore comforted me. "It's all right, Harry. It's all right." Professor Dumbledore said.
"He's home. You both are. And don't worry, we will get your daughter back, I promise." Professor Dumbledore said. "Keep everybody in their seats." Professor Dumbledore said. "The body must be moved, Dumbledore. There are too many people." A man said. "Let me through, let me through. That's my son! That's my boy! It's my boy!" Amos cried. As Amos was crying for his son, Professor Moody picked me up and dragged me out of the arena.
I continued sobbing. "It's okay, I got you, easy now." Professor Moody said as he continued dragging me.
