Hey people I'm back! Miss me? Well, I hope so because I been working really hard on the next few chapters. So here's how it's going to go. The next chapter will end fourth year and I will be trying to get that to you in the next little while. Then I will go further and start fifth year, because I have some really great ideas for it. And I'm really sorry if you find any mistakes such as rushing a little bit or grammar because I am a grammar/spelling freak and my mom asks me how to spell words she doesn't know.
Anyway before I start babbling like an monkey on a banana high/rush (chuckles) I know that makes no sense. But like I said I want to thank narugirl2003 for taking her time and looking over this chapter, and others.
Disclaimer: I don't own the Harry Potter characters. I do however own my own ideas that came with this story.
So without further ado here is chapter 4
Love Above All
Chapter 4
Bold: Quotes from the movie/ book
After the ball Harry had the same dream he had over the summer before this year. He was looking at a graveyard, and then was taken to a house. Most likely the Riddle House but he wasn't sure. He started walking up the stairs, and he heard Voldemort's voice talking to his servants. He was in a chair, Nagini on the side or on the arm rest. The guy to be exact was Barty Crouch Jr. Yet he didn't know quite then.
"Let me see it again" Voldemort said in a raspy voice.
Barty lifted his shirt sleeve up, and Lord Voldemort said "At last the time is close."
Back at Harry his head moved slightly when Voldemort said "Harry at last."
Wormtail came to the door, and Voldy said "Step aside Wormtail, so I can give our guest a warm greeting."
Wormtail stepped aside, and then a green light flashed in Harry's eye. He woke up from the dream, and saw Neville standing in front of him.
"Are you alright?" He asked. "I just got in." He added.
Neville started to dance around.
~Before the Second Task~
Hermione's P.O.V.
After the Yule Ball the next couple of months was great but tense for Harry; however I was able to calm him down most of time. A few weeks before the second task I was helping him with the clue. He was stressing really bad. To relive him from stress I kissed him.
"Harry, you're stressing too much on the egg and it's stressing me out" I said to him.
I had an idea at the moment, but it was mad. Really mad.
Two days before the task I confronted him on the bridge in a calm mannered way and said "Harry, you told me you'd figure this out weeks ago. The task is two days from now."
He looked at me with a raised eyebrow.
"Really, I had no idea." He said sarcastically.
"You told me I was stressing out too much and I should lay back." He added.
I knew that was true but he agreed and put it off. "You were the one to agree with it."
He nodded dutifully. I realized he was trying to figure it out while I studied.
"You are trying to figure this egg out aren't you?" I said.
"What's that's supposed to mean?" He came back with.
I sighed "These tasks are supposed to test you, in the most brutal ways that seem cruel, and…..I'm worried about you." I turned to him and said "You beat the dragon on nerve; I don't think that will help you this time, Harry."
Harry heard Cedric calling him and I went back to the common room after.
~With Harry in the Prefects bathroom~
After turning on the showers there were three colors coming out of several spouts the first was yellow, next was red, and the last or the top was blue. There were many bubbles in the overly large bath tub. After Harry took off his robe he sat down in the water. There was a picture of a mermaid that came to life and the mermaid faced him while moving her long hair.
He looked at the gold egg and said "I must be out of my mind" before he opened the egg the second time since he got it.
A loud screech came out and hurt his ears then quickly closed the egg and looked at it again.
"I'm definitely out of my mind" He said. He then heard Moaning Myrtle.
"I'd try putting it in the water."
Harry called out "Myrtle!"
She was in a toilet and had both of her hands on both cheeks sighing happily.
"Hello, Harry. Long time no see." She said.
Harry started bringing bubble closer to him. Myrtle came out of the toilet, and started floating about.
After she told him what she saw he asked "Did you say try putting it in the water?"
She nodded "That's what the other boy did, the handsome one, Cedric."
After she told him to open it he did as she said and placed it under water and opened it, then submerged himself in to hear it. It then started singing "Come seek us where our voices sound, we cannot sing above the ground an hour long you'll have to look to recover what we took, but past the hour the prospects black too late, it's gone, it won't come back."
Harry then got out of the water and started spitting out water. Myrtle did the same thing with a girlier tone.
Harry asked her "Myrtle there aren't any merpeople right?"
She looked at him like he was crazy "Of course there are. It Cedric a long time to figure it out. All of the bubbles were pretty much gone."
She got closer to him, but he kept scooting back bringing bubbles with him.
~In the Library with Harry, Ron, and Hermione~
Hermione was helping Harry figure out the meaning of the song and what they said.
"Harry, tell me again" She said.
He had his chin hitting against the book he was looking at when he said "Come seek us where our voices sound"
Hermione came back with "The Black Lake, that's obvious."
She heard Ron snoring so she pushed the egg to him.
Harry then said "An hour long you'll have to look."
She sighed. "Again obvious, though it's potentially problematic"
Harry lifted his head to look at her. "Potentially Problematic? When was the last time you held your head under water Hermione?" He said.
She sighed, sat down next to him, "Look Harry, we can do this. The two of us can figure this out." She said leaving Ron out of the discussion.
Professor Moody then came and interrupted there concentration and told Hermione and Ron that Professor McGonagall wanted to speak to them. Ron left, and handed Harry the egg. Hermione then followed Ron. Professor Moody told Neville to help Harry put his books away. Neville then told him about the Gillyweed plant after hearing Harry talk about plants that would help him breathe under water for an hour.
~Second Task~
Harry's P.O.V.
I was heading to the Black Lake when I thought Hermione would be right beside me but she wasn't there. When we got there Professor Moody told me to put the gillyweed in my mouth. As much as I want to tell you I won't but to make things short I was in pain and it was hard to swallow. I felt Professor Moody push me into the water so I can do the task. Once I figured out what I became I did a flip and came out of the water for a short time and dived back in. I swam in an area full of seaweed and merpeople swimming around like they were guarding something or someone. I started swimming closer, and saw a big arch like building swimming much closer I saw Hermione with a bunch of other people. I then saw Cho. Cedric then comes by, and saves her and clicks his watch with his wand. I saw Ron too, and thought of saving him since he was my friend but then a bunch merpeople held a trident to my neck, and around in a circle.
I told them "But he's my friend too."
They hissed, and said "Only one."
Then a shark like man comes, and grabs Ron.
I thought about it and said to myself. "They have been close friends. No wonder."
I then grabbed Hermione, and pointed my wand to the other person chain like seaweed. I broke it to apart. I grabbed them both and started to swim up. Then merpeople start to grab on to me so I did the only thing left I had in mind. I let my girlfriend and the other girl free so they can get to safety, and fight the merpeople myself. After fighting a ton of merpeople I casted a spell at them. Then I felt like I was drowning so I casted ascendio to lift myself to safety. I flew to the balcony like safety. I started coughing and felt people putting towels on me.
Fleur came to me with her little sister, and said "You saved my little sister even though she wasn't yours to save. Thank you."
She kissed both of my cheeks, and then saw Hermione.
"You helped also."
Hermione had a slight blush, and said "Well yeah a bit, I didn't want her to drown."
Fleur hugged her tightly. She pulled away and left with her sister.
Hermione then saw me and said "Harry! Are you okay? I was so worried about you. You must be freezing."
She put her towel around me. "Personally, I think you paid admirably."
I thought I finished last. "I finished last, Hermione."
Suddenly she kissed me and said "Next to last, Fleur never got past the grindylows."
There were a lot of people cheering for Krum. Professor Dumbledore then came up and tried to get everyone's attention. Once he got the attention, he announced the winner; Cedric. With the determination I had I was awarded second place.
Hermione gasped, and said "Second place."
Igor wasn't to please of Professor Dumbledore. As we were walking to Hagrid's, I heard him say things about Hermione, Ron, and I. I then felt my scar hurt like crazy. I saw Mr. Crouch lying on the ground lifeless. Was he killed? Of course no wonder why I heard part of the Dark Mark.
So like I said next chapter will start with Harry going to Dumbledore's office and then it will end the fourth year.
Please R&R, Thankies!
