CHAPTER 22
AUTHOR'S NOTE: Hey, everybody, New chapter. Please leave your comments and reviews ...Thank you!
Hazel giggled, as Mulciber fell on top of Voldemort. All the death Eaters stumbled to get Voldemort up.
"What's happening now?" The group was joined by Professor McGonagall.
"She is not connecting!" Harry said,
"WHAT!?" Ron screamed, "Is she...did she uh?" Ron tried to say something, but he couldn't say it.
"No, you idiot!" Hermione punched him.
"Harry, come on," Sirius was anxious, "Concentrate, connect with her, what's happening, give me a location!"
"Relax, Padfoot!" Remus said reasonably, "If she was hurt, we would know," He pointed to Harry.
Harry tried to focus, his mind was concentrating on his sister, her image appeared in his mind.
"She's...she is in front of Voldemort. A duel."
"A duel?" McGonagall cried, "The girl is fourteen!'
"She's happy,"
"Sh'e what?!" This time it was Hermione,
"Yes, She is smiling, she has her wand." Harry still had his eyes closed, "She is using your spells." He turned to Sirius, "The ones you showed her over the summer."
"Crucio!"
"Protego!"
The curse was thrown back in Voldemort's direction, and Voldemort pushed Wormtail, as a human shield. Wormtail's screams echoed the cemetery as Hazel felt a wave of happiness.
'Do nothing!' Voldemort shrieked to the Death Eaters, who were moving forward, 'Do nothing unless I command you!' Voldemort shouted to the Death Eaters.
"Aveda Kedarva!"
"Expelliarmus!"
The wands connected. And then an unearthly and beautiful sound filled the air … it was coming from every thread of the light-spun web vibrating. It was the phoenix singing.
"Don't break the connection." Harry was whispering, he was connecting, Hazel was responding to him. They always knew what was going on with the other. The magic bond their mother made, they felt what the other felt. They knew what the other was thinking, only when the other allowed invasion.
"What is happening?"
"Say something, Harry!"
"What is it?"
"Mr Potter..."
Everyone was asking him questions, but he was focusing harder then ever,
"I won't!" He received what he wanted, Hazel was responding back.
'Don't let go, now!' she cried, and her voice echoed like Cedric's, as though from very far away. 'Don't let him get you.'
"I won't, I must not." Hazel thought herself,
Suddenly after Bertha Jorkins, a man came from the end of Voldemort's wand.
"Harry," She whispered, she was weak, and not able to concentrate much longer.
The man shook his head, looking deep in to her eyes. She recognized the color. It was Hazel.
"Daddy?" She whispered,
The man nodded his head, The wand was wavering.
"Focus, Hazey, focus!" James Potter said for the first time. Tears in her eyes she held the wand with more power.
A few moments later, a woman, stood in front of her, right next to James Potter. They both shared a striking resemblance.
"Mom?" The shadowy form of herself, with green eyes was walking closer.
Voldemort, his face now livid with fear as his victims prowled around him, could not hear …...
"When the connection is broken, love, we will only linger with moments." Lily was standing closest then all of them.
"You must take the portkey, Hazey, and go back, you understand!" James was kneeling beside her. "Go back, back to Hogwarts."
"Yes, I understand." She struggled to keep the connection for a little longer.
"Hazey, let your Godfather know, thank him for everything." Lily Potter was smiling. "That we knew, he wouldn't do such a thing."
Hazel nodded.
"Tell your brother we love him!" James wanted to say it.
"Take my body back, will you?" Cedric's voice said.
"I will." Hazel said.
"Ready to run, Hazel." James looked on to her.
'NOW!'
Hazel ran, like she had never run before, from the sides, and ran towards Cedric's lifeless body. Not before stunning Pettigrew.
"Stun her!" Voldemort screamed, as Death Eaters prowled after her,
"Reducto!" She yelled.
The jinx hit one death eater and stopped the flow of the other's coming. The death eaters were holding him.
Get her!" Voldemort screamed and shrieked.
'Just one more, and it'll clear my way.' Hazel thought to herself. "Stupefy!"
The Death Eaters were blasted a few feet. She sat next to Cedric's body, and said, "Accio!"
The cup came flying to her, and she disappeared as the world around her started to revolve around her. It was not just the portkey. But her head was splitting with a pain.
"Stand aside, she is mine, I am going..." She heard a high pitched sound.
"She is here!" Harry stood up, and ran, he ran as he felt his head splitting with pain.
The rest of them ran after him, as they saw Hazel Potter emerge from the entrance of the maze. Standing next to a hedge, leaning against it. Cedric lying next to her and the cup in her left hand. She let go of the cup, and threw it a few feet from herself. It rolled over and lay in front of the stadium. The deafening sounds of applause and screams were making her head hurt even more. Tears streamed down her face, leaving streaks on her face.
She saw Harry running towards her, Followed by Sirius, Remus, and Ron and Hermione. Harry hugged her,
"What..." Hermione looked at her, she was crying, Hermione had never seen Hazel cry, ever.
"Survivor's guilt." She let out a pained laugh,
"What?"
Hazel pointed a few feet behind her. Her eyes were now seeing two of them. She was walked a few steps back, and sat on the floor. She held Cedric's hand,
"Sirius?"
"Yes!" Sirius stood right next to her, held her in her arms.
"I saw dad, I saw mom." She was whispering. "I saw them."
She heard a lot of noise and cries now. And that was last she heard.
