Chapter Three: Fourth Triwizard Champion?

CEDRIC'S POV.


Cedric entered the second chamber, Fleur Delacour jumped when she saw him enter, but when she realized who it was she gave him a dazzliling smile. Cedric, who really had no idea what to do, gave a small smile back before walking over to the fire. All three of them were standing around the fire, Krum was leaning against the fireplace, staring at the floor, standing farther away from everyone else. Cedric nocited Fleur had stepped closer to him, and he nervously tugged at his school tie. He wasn't sure wether he should sit down or not so he just stood there awkardly, hands in the pockets of his robes, staring into the fire.

The door opened again and Cedric turned his head slightly towards the door, not turning it completly so he could get a better look at the person who had entered, Fleur, however, turned around and looked at the person.

"What is it? Do zey want us back in ze hall?" Fleur said, brushing a piece of slivery blonde hair off the sleeve of her robes. Cedric still didn't look the vistor properly, Krum hadn't looked up either, his eyes darted up towards the door when he'd heard it open, but qucikly darted back to the floor (which suddently appeared very interesting to Cedric as well) as if he hadn't been looking up at all.

The person hadn't answered. Cedric turned his head and saw a boy a good five inches shorter them himself, with jet black hair, and brilliant green eyes. Cedric didn't need to look at the boys forhead to know who it was. Harry Potter was standing, more awkardly then anyone else in the room, clearly not knowing how to explain his situation. It wasn't a tough question to answer, did they want them back in the Hall or not? A question, Cedric thought could be simply answered.

The door burst open and the familar sound of scurrying feet filled the room, and Lundo Bagman enterned the room. He walked directly over to Harry and took his arm and led him to the center of the room. Krum's attention was now fully on Bagman and Harry, Cedric turned to the side, so he could look at them without looking over his shoulder, his neck already hurting from craining to see who had entered the room.

"Extradinary!" Bagman muttered, giving Harry's arm a squeaze. "Absoluetly extradinary! Gentleman-" He said looking for a moment between Cedric and Krum, then his eyes fell on Fleur, who looked slightly offended "-lady." He added, nodding to her, and walking closer to the fire, clearly addressing Cedric, Krum and Fleur. "May I introduce----incredible thought it may seem- the fourth Triwizard champion?"

Krum striaghtend up, surly face darkening as looked at Harry, he must have been thinking 'Are you kidding me?', Cedric stood nunplussed, looking from the beaming Bagman to the awkard Harry, who was standing there, avoiding everyone's gaze, eyes fixed on the floor, hands in his pockets. Cedric was sure he had misunderstood, he liked Harry, but Harry must have been no younger then fourteen, he was too young, surely there had been a mistake. Fleur, however, laughed lightly and tossed her long hair over her shoulder, laughing softly once more, before throwing Bagman a smile and said, "Oh very funny joke, Messter Bagman."

Bagman looked positivly bewildered. "Joke?" He said, just as bewildered as he looked. "No, no, not at all! Harry's name jsut came out of the Goblet of Fire!" Bagman looked at Krum and Cedric, as if telling one of them to explain this to Fleur, who was frowning. Krum's eye brows contracted, only sligthly, and Cedirc looked polietly bewildered, this made no sence, Harry's name couldn't have come out of the Goblet, there was only supposed to be three champions, one from each school, Cedric made a mental note to possibly re-read the rules.

"But evidently zair 'as been a mistake," Fleur said contemptuously, still frowning, looking at Harry with an un-readable expression, her eyes snapped to Bagman. " 'E cannot compete. 'E is too young." She said, looking at Harry as if she was his babysitter and he was three wanting to watch a movie made for people thriteen and over.

"Well...it is amazing," Bagman said, rubbing his chin and looking thougthfully and the top of the fireplace, avidoing everyone's gaze. (well everyone but Harry's who was still looking at the floor as if it was the most interesting thing in the world) Then he looked down at the top of Harry's head and smiled. "But, as you know, the age restriction was only imposed this year as an extra safety measure. And his name's com out of the goblet..." He stopped to make sure the three of them were following what he was saying. Cedric didn't need to be reminded of the rules, he needed someone to come and striaghten this out, because heaven knows Bagman was not helping him at all. "...I mean I don't think there can be any ducking out at this stage...It's down un in the rules, you're obliged...Harry will just have do the best he-"

The door opened once more, and a large amount of people and spilling over the threshold: Professor Dumbledore, who was closey followed by Mr. Crouch, Professor Karkaroff, Madam Maxime, Professor McGonagal, and Professor Snape. Before McGonagal closed the door, Cedric could hear the hundereds of students talking or whispering, some even yelling across the Hall to friends at other houses, about what had just happend.

"Madam Maxime!" Fleur said, tossing her hair (which promptly hit Cedric in the face) and striding over to her headmistress. "Zey are saying zat zis little boy is to compete also!" Little boy? Thought Cedric, yes Harry was about three years younger (four in Krum and Fleur's case) then him, but it wasn't as if Harry was five and his name had come out of the Goblet. Her comment, made Harry's head snap up and give Fleur a very angry look (not that anyone but Fleur would blame him for)

Madam Maxime drew herself to her full height, and Cedric and Krum backed away from her slightly, clearly scared of what she might do. She said in her deep, low and rumlbing voice, "What ze meaning of zis, Dumbly-dorr?"

Karkaroff stepped foward on Dumbledore's left side, and through the corner of his eye Cedric saw Krum step foward once more, but not looking at his headmaster. Cedric's eyebrow contracted together in confusion at this.

"I'd rather like to know that myself, Dumbeldore," Karkaroff said. He had a stealy smile on his face, and his blue eyes were as eyes, Cedric even shivered a little at this. Was it just him or had it gotten just a little bit colder in the room then it was a few moments before. "Two Hogwarts champions? I don't remeber anyone telling me the the hos school is allowed two champions--- or have I not read the rules carefuly enough?" He gave a short, nasty laugh. Cedric sighed and leaned on a chair. This was not going to be a nice short little chat. He prepard himself for a very long discussion.
