The One Thing He'll Miss
(Still, Chapter 26 - The Second Task)
"Come in, Miss Chang." Professor Flitwick motioned Cho to his office. "How are you doing today?"
"I'm fine, Professor," she replied. "I've been working with Lisa and she's doing very well."
"Yes, I've been seeing a lot of improvement with her Charms work. Thank you so much. You have been a great help, as always," Professor Flitwick said, beaming at her. "But that isn't why I called you in. Our school needs your help in the Tri-Wizard tournament."
Help in the Tri-Wizard tournament? She asked herself, confused.
Professor Flitwick continued, "You see, in the second task tomorrow, each champion will take back from the merpeople the one thing that's very important to him, the one thing he will miss."
"Miss Chang, it's no secret here at Hogwarts that the one thing Cedric Diggory will miss the most is you."
Cho felt the color rising to her face.
"But you are under no obligation to take part in this, I assure you of that."
"What do I have to do?" asked Cho.
"Oh, not much." The head of the Ravenclaw house explained, "Professor Dumbledore will perform a spell that will put you to sleep. You will then be taken to the merpeople at the bottom of the lake, along with the other champions' - er - 'hostages'. No harm will come to you. You will wake up the moment are back above the water."
-----------------------------------------
"Girl, where have you been?" asked Crystal as Cho entered the fifth year girls' dormitory. Her three friends are now clad in pyjamas getting ready to go bed.
"I just went to see Professor Flitwick," replied Cho. "By the way, I won't be sleeping here tonight," she continued as she changed into warmer clothes.
"Oh boy, you're up to something, are you?" teased Pam, her eyes twinkling. Jane was now giving Cho a meaningful look.
"Look, it's not what you think it is," said Cho. "I can't tell you everything right now. I just came here to change and to tell you not to go looking for me tonight." Indeed, she had instructions from Professor Flitwick not to tell anyone.
Soon enough, she was headed towards Professor McGonagall's office as Professor Flitwick has told her. She stepped into the Deputy Headmistress' office and found a little girl with blonde hair (who bears a striking resemblance to Fleur Delacour) and two familiar faces, Hermione Granger and the redheaded boy who she assumes is Harry Potter's best friend.
Before she had the chance to introduce herself, Professor Dumbledore had walked into the office.
"Ah, there you are. I think we have everybody in," said Professor Dumbledore. "I believe everything has been explained to all of you." All four students nodded. "I will perform a spell that will put you into deep sleep. I assure you that you will all be safe."
As soon as Professor Dumbledore performed the spell, Cho started to feel relaxed, an overwhelming feeling of ease has overtaken her. Soon, she has fallen asleep.
----------------------------------------------
She was in a graveyard. It was dark, except for a little ray of light coming from a distance. She walked towards the light and saw a man, short and bald, holding a bundle like a baby, wrapped in shabby pieces of cloth. The man held his wand up and bellowed what sounded like an incantation. A flash green light came, so bright it was almost blinding. When all the green light had gone, she saw sprawled on the ground was Cedric.
"Cedric, Cedric!" she cried.
"Cho, wake up! Are you alright?" It was Cedric, holding her as he tried to stay afloat. He still has the Bubble around his head.
Cho then realized where she was. They were in the middle of the lake and Cedric was pulling her back to shore. She was crying, she can feel the tears from her eyes. Cedric may not have noticed as her face was all wet. He had just pulled her to the surface of the lake.
Before long, they were back at the shore, with Madam Pomfrey giving them Pepperup Potion and wrapping them in thick blankets
"Cho, are you alright? Did they hurt you?" Cedric asked anxiously.
"No, I'm not hurt. The merpeople didn't do anything to us," she replied.
"When we got above the water, I thought you were -- crying," he said. He seemed extremely concerned.
"No." She lied. She knew she was crying when she woke up. Now she was trying to remember what happened. A dream. She dreamt about Cedric. What it was about, she tried to remember -- a blinding flash of light, and Cedric lying on the ground. What does this mean?
