Chapter 14

The Last Task

Disclaimer: I don't own Harry Potter.

Finally! It's the Third Task day… I also read the Daily Prophet about us in the Triwizard Tournament

I found my dad after I finished breakfast in the Great Hall at the entrance of the side chamber.

He hugged me and found Harry. Dad said, "There you are, are you!" "Bet you're not feeling quite as full yourself when Cedric caught you up on points, eh?"

Harry didn't know how to answer so he just said, "What?"

I glared at my dad and told Harry, "Ignore him. He's been angry about Rita Skeeter's article, you know, when she pointed out you were the only Hogwarts champion."

"Didn't bother to correct her, did you?" Dad said. I looked at mom coming towards our way.

I talked with mom, not bothering to listen to Mrs. Weasley's and dad's conversation, more like an argument though.

Mom then stopped Dad from talking to Mrs. Weasley. I was so pleased.

In the evening, Dumbledore said, "Ladies and Gentlemen, in five minutes' time, the Third Task shall begin! Champions, please go with Mr. Bagman."

We followed Mr. Bagman and I felt quite nervous about this.

My dad at my side asked me, "How you doing? Nervous? Don't worry! You can beat Harry Potter! You can do it!"

I rolled my eyes.

When we're in the stadium, I found myself standing near a twenty foot high hedge.

Wow, they really made a good job about this.

"On your marks, Harry and Cedric first! Ready, get set, GO!" Dumbledore said.

Both of us ran in to the maze. It was quite dark and scary but we still ran.

Then we went to separate ways.

I hit a dead end so I used the Four Point Spell, "Point Me," I said. The wand told me to go northeast.

I headed there and saw Harry again, I also heard other footsteps, they must be from Fleur and Viktor.

"I'll take the left, see you!" I told Harry. Harry went right.

I ran and went right and saw a Blast-ended skrewt! It was humongous! I tried, "Stupefy!" It didn't work, it just ricocheted off its armor. "Stupefy!" I shouted again. Nothing serious happened to it. But it flamed on me and my sleeve got burned, "Aguamenti" I said, pointing at my sleeve, at least no major injuries.

I said, "Impedimenta!" It slowed the Blast-ended skrewt down.

I left it and then ran away.

I saw Viktor Krum coming towards me, I was about to say "Hi" when he pointed his wand at me.

"W-what did I do?" I held my hands up. "Cru-" he said. "What the heck are you doing?" I shouted at him.

Then he said it… the unforgivable curse. "Crucio!" said Viktor. It was the first time I felt extreme pain, even more than the extreme heat in the campsite of the Quidditch World Cup.

I screamed in pain and horror!

I heard a voice that said, "Stupefy!" It hit Viktor and he dropped down.

It was Harry Potter who saved me, I owe him. "Hey thanks man, I owe you!" I told him. "No problem, let's send red sparks for Krum," he said. "He might get eaten by the Blast-Ended Skrewts."

"Serves him right," I muttered, but I still sent red sparks. "Blast-ended skrewts are nasty."

"Yeah, I know!" he said.

We saw the Triwizard Cup near us, I didn't want to let him get it, so I grabbed his sleeve and ran towards it.

I felt conscientious and looked at Harry. He looked at me and said, "Take the cup."

"No," I simply said. "You take it, you saved my life and those clues."

"Take it! Come on, you need it more!" he said.

"No! You told me about the dragons!" I said. "Well you told me about the egg, okay, that's fair, but just take it!" Harry impatiently said.

"You saved my life!" I said. "I don't care about that, alright then, together!" he said.

"One, two, three!" we both clasped on to the Triwizard Cup.

I felt a jerking feeling. It was like the feeling when you touch a portkey.

We landed on this unknown ground. I never knew what this is. "Is this part of the task?" I asked Harry.

Harry said, "I don't think so, and I do have a bad feeling about this!"

There was this hoarse whisper and then green light. I felt no pain but I felt my spirit going out of my body.

I could see my body and Harry Potter and an ugly guy!

I also saw some fellow ghosts and Harry's mom and dad. I couldn't believe it but yeah, you know what I am now, a ghost!

Harry and You-Know-Who were fighting. There was a beam of light between their wands and then I knew Harry can see me.

"Harry, please… take my body back!" I pleaded to him. "I will, don't worry, I will!" he said.

After their fight, I went up to a place called… Paradise!
