The Hogwarts Games
Chapter 5, The DeathMatch
I went to bed quickly that night. I woke up and the day was bright and sunny. None at all of what the day was going to be like. Me, Ariana, and Chris all met in the Great Hall. We all looked at each other. Knowing that only one of us could live. We marched down to the Forbidden Forest with Headmaster Donaldson. None of us said a word on the way there.
Finally we came across a small clearing with a supply table full of muggle weapons.
"Today is the DeathMatch. You will be using muggle weapons and not your wands. Hand your wands over to me. Thank you. Go get your weapons and find positions. You have five minutes. When your time is up I will shoot a jet of purple light into the "Headmaster Donaldson said.
I ran to the supply table. I grabbed a sword and sheathed it. I grabbed a Bow and a quiver full of arrows. I grabbed a dagger and ran to find a hiding place. After searching for a minute I finally found a clearing full of busshes. I went and hid in them, my bow ready and an arrow notched ready to shoot. After the jet of purple light shot into the sky I kept the defense. After a while I got out of my defense position. I started walking around with my sword. It ended up falling into a stream and I thought it best not to stop and retrieve it.
Finally I saw Ariana running and Chris chasing her. I heard her scream and an arrow being shot. He ran the other way still not seeing me. I ran to her body and knelt down beside her. He chest had an arrow stuck in it and blood was streaming from the wound and her mouth. I kissed her and she kissed me back.
"I love you"She muttered.
"I love you too" I said tears running down my face. And she gave her last breath and died. I stood up with my arrow notched in my bow prepared to shoot. I finally saw him run past and shot. The arrow remarkably hit him in the leg. He buckled and fell to the ground. I ran over to him and pulled out my dagger. I held it to his throat.
"Thank you"I said.
"For what"He choked in agony.
"For not making me kill her"I said tears still running down my face.
"Your welcome. Congratulations by the way" He said.
"Thank you. I'm sorry I wish I didn't have to do this, you did nothing to me" I said.
"It's ok I understand, just do it quick"He choked.
And I sliced his throat and stood up. Blood was streaming from his throat and he died finally. I raised my wand to the sky and shouted:
"Periculum". A jet of red sparks shot from my wand and hit the sky. I had won The Hogwarts Games.
