Here's a new chapter for the story that has the most chapters I have ever done!
Some of you reviewers have told me to do the "Wizards face their worst fears" for the fifth task. So, I'll do that. The poll has been deleted so I know what I want to do for the fifth task. This time though, I'll show the entire wizards' POV's so then you'll know what their fears are.
Thanks DefyingGravityElphaba for giving me Harry's fear. Sorry if I didn't give Harry the seeker job in the Quidditch match, though. I just thought that Bella could do it.
And, with that, we may now begin.
Chapter 18
Harry's POV
Edward, Lily, Oliver, Diane, Marie and I all walked onto the field where Professor Dumbledore would announce the fifth task. Everyone in the stands cheered as we entered. Edward asked me if I have seen where Bella and Nessie were, but frankly, I haven't seen them all morning.
When we stopped by Professor Dumbledore, the crowd went silent. "Now it is time for the fifth task. Our wizards have all come very far. So far, Mister Cullen has taken first place so far, with Mister Potter and Miss Moonpetal in a tie for second. Mister Masstidoff has taken third place, with Miss Deufloura coming close to him, but taking the fourth place mark. Unfortunately, Miss Malgrey is in last place at this time.
"Onto more important matters. This task for our champion is where they'll face worse fears. We have placed port keys behind the champions," Professor Dumbledore paused and gestured behind us. We looked and saw that there were indeed, six port keys that looked like glowing trophies. "So that the port keys will take them to their own fears. There, they must defeat their fears by using spells and charms the help them finish the task. Once they are finished, they'll be transferred back here. Whichever wizard or witch gets back here first will once again a head start on the sixth and final task." Professor Dumbledore ended his speech and turned towards Edward, Lily and I. "Since your team won in the last task, you three get a head start on facing your fears."
We nodded and walked over to our port keys that Professor Dumbledore directed us to. I looked between Edward and Lily, and then, we grabbed our port keys at the same time and soon, the crowd, the other champions, Edward and Lily- everyone disappeared from me.
I looked around and saw that I was alone, in a dark tunnel. My only light was my lit wand that was in front of me. I turned every direction I could find, but there was no where to go. Suddenly, it got unbelievably cold in the tunnel. I exhaled from the breath I was holding, and it came out in front of me.
Then, a Dementor materialized in front of me, floating. I glared at it, but when I tried to shout the Expecto Patronum charm, the Dementor ghosted forward. I turned on my heels and sprinted down the tunnel, as my feet slapped loudly against the wet concrete below my feet.
I didn't dare turn around to see whether how close or how far the Dementor was. All I did was stare straight ahead and never stopped running. I finally came to a corner where I can go in a different direction. I turned down that way and kept on running.
I stumbled, but I caught myself before I could fall forward. I bumped into the concrete walls that were around me, pushing my legs forward. I did the mistake of looking back and saw that the Dementor was still ghosting after me, getting closer and closer as I ran.
I turned in many directions, running and never stopping. I ran in the maze, with the Dementor still after me. Unfortunately, to my dismay, I came to a dead end.
I slammed into the wall, thinking that there would be a door on the wall, but except, there wasn't any doors or exits in front of me. I yelled in rage and pounded on the wall once, and turned around, facing the Dementor who was floating in front of me. I held up my wand as it got closer to me and thought of all the good and happy times I have shared with them.
With those thoughts fueling me, I shouted, "Expecto Patronum!" at the top of my lungs. The white shield blasted forward and it attacked the Dementor, causing it to disappear. I smiled and soon, the scene changed back to the field, where the cheering crowds were waiting.

Lily's POV
I fell to the ground as I fell through the air. I jumped to my feet and took in my surroundings. I was in a forest that smelled rather like the old Forks. I turned around again and again, trying to find something that looked familiar. I walked out of the meadow that I was in, and ventured into the forest.
I heard no sounds at all as I walked. I heard no passing animals, no breeze, no water trickling from any nearby streams. I could only here the crunching noises my feet made as I walked through the forest.
Finally, I came to a clearing which made me gasp in horror as I saw what was before me.
Aiden was on the ground, withering in pain as Jane smiled evilly at him. Aiden looked up from the ground and making choking noises, while he pulled out a shaking/trembling hand towards me. "Aiden!" I cried out. I sprinted forward and shielded Aiden from Jane. When I looked back up, I gasped again.
Not only was there one Jane, but there was six of them, all not smiling anymore. I pulled out my wand and screamed "Reducto!" at all of them. Each one exploded as fake after fake disappeared. Only the one and remaining Jane stood before me.
"Well, hello Lily. Nice to see you and Aiden again." Jane said in a sickly sweet voice. I snarled at her. "Now, let's see that talent at hand, shall we?" Jane then ran off, leaving me alone with a still withering Aiden. I sighed and closed my eyes, placing both of my index and middle fingers on both of my temples.
I saw Jane running around trees and saw she was coming back, from behind me. I whirled around in direction she was coming and raised my hand, just in time she came in contact with the powerful shield. The shield rippled into the view and shimmered blue, as Jane bounced back and out of view.
I smiled and bent down to help Aiden up.
**********************************************************************************************************************************
Edward's POV
I fell to the ground, landing on my feet. All around was darkness, except for the light coming from my lit wand. The small bubble of light around me was all I could see. I turned in every direction, trying to find another light, but nothing was there.
I grunted in frustration and walked forward, hearing my footsteps echoed on the ground. Suddenly, I heard Bella speak. "Edward?" I gasped and turned in every direction, trying to find her. When I looked back in front of me, I saw Bella under a light, holding Nessie on her hip. She was smiling, with Nessie giggling beside her.
I smiled and ran forward, until I was standing directly in front of her. "Daddy!" Nessie squealed. I hugged both of them, kissing both of their heads. They both giggled and kissed my each of my cheeks.
Suddenly, I was ripped away from them. A stabbing pain erupted in my back as I cried out. My back arched and I stumbled back. "Edward!" "Daddy!" both of my girls cried out as I withered in pain. I looked back at them and I yelled in rage. Both of them were being swallowed up by darkness. Nessie was crying and screaming, tears rolling down her pale cheeks, while Bella held onto her for dear life, screaming as well. Ignoring the pain from my back, I bolted up and flashed to their sides, taking them in my arms.
Bella threw her arms around my neck, crushing Nessie between us. I pulled one of my arms away from them and pulled out my wand, shouting "Reducto!" at the top of my lungs. The darkness around us burst and suddenly, we were surrounded by blinding light.
***************************************************************************************************************************************************
Marie's POV
(and now I'll make up the rest of the fears)
I looked around me, gasping from each tree branch that scratched me. I winced when I felt the branch cut into my skin as well. I stumbled my way blindly through the dark forest, tripping over tree roots.
Suddenly, I heard something snap behind me and I gasped, whirling around. Nothing was there, and I turned around again. Suddenly, a giant spider was hanging from a tree. I screamed and ducked under it, sprinting away from it.
I stumbled over many tree roots as I ran, gasping and screaming as more and more spiders appeared. And every time a new appeared, I screamed and ran away.
Finally, I fell into a clearing, where thousands of little spiders were everywhere. I screamed as loud as I could and pulled out and screamed out a spell that I couldn't remember what it was.
That only caused more spiders to appear before me. I screamed again and again, shouting out spells that made some spiders disappeared, while some of them kept coming forward.
Suddenly, the spiders shot out their thread at me, tying my feet and legs together. I went down to the ground with a thud and screamed as all of the spiders crawled over me. Next thing that I knew, as the spiders completely covered me, a blinding light appeared.
(I'll skip the other POVs because I couldn't come up with any other fears for them.)
Third Person POV
The crowd waited silently as they watched Harry, Edward and Lily grabbed their port keys and disappear before their eyes. Then, after a few minutes of waiting, Oliver, Diane and Marie went to their port keys and disappear as well. Now it was only the other students and the professors.
"I wonder what their fears are…" Ron wondered out loud. He was sitting by Hermione and his siblings and other friends as they waited for someone to return. "Why do you ask, Ron?" Hermione asked him. Ron only shrugged.
"Well, we all know Harry's fear is fear itself. So, he would probably be facing a Dementor right now." Ginny told us. The group nodded. "But what about the others?" Neville asked. "Oh, that's easy." Emmett boomed from behind them. Jasper and Alice nodded as Rosalie rolled her eyes at her husband.
"Really? Do you four know what Edward's and Lily's fear is?" Luna asked them.
They all nodded. "Lily's fear is finding Aiden dying on the ground, with Jane killing him, while not being able to help him." Alice told the group; they nodded. "Edward's fear is obvious of course. His fear is that if Bella and Nessie are in danger, and he can't do anything about it." Jasper told them. Again they all nodded.
"And from what Edward has told us about her, Marie is afraid of spiders." Rosalie added. "Kind of like you, Ron." Fred and George snickered at their younger brother. Ron glared at them as they laughed.
Suddenly, everyone heard a muted thud and an, "ow…" that followed after it. Everyone looked towards the field and saw Harry getting up from the ground. Almost simultaneously, another thud was heard. Next to Harry on the ground, was Edward, holding Bella and Nessie close to him. He stood up with them and buried his face in their hair.
The crowd cheered as they both came at the same time sort of. They all smiled. During the cheering, Oliver appeared, with dust all over him. Then, Diane appeared, soaking wet from head to toe. She shivered and a teacher handed her a towel. Finally, Marie appeared, shaking to the bone.
"Spiders… Spiders… Everywhere…" was all she was muttering as her Headmistress led her away. "ATTENTION!" Professor Dumbledore shouted into his wand as it was amplified.
"Thank you. Now, Mister Potter and Mister Cullen has come in at the same time. So, in the final task, they will both get a head start. Miss Moonpetal has come in third yet again, and Mister Masstidoff in fourth. Now Miss Malgrey will be in fifth and Miss Deufloura in last place. Only the first three have conquered their tasks, but Mister Masstidoff and Misses Malgrey and Deufloura have failed to conquer their fears.
"The sixth and final task will be held soon sometime as we let our champions rest from their hard day." Professor Dumbledore announced. Before anyone could leave, all of the Cullens told them to stop. Each of them turned to the far side of the field.
Suddenly, five pale figures hopped over the hedges. There were three females and two males as the walked forward. "Hello, Tanya, Kate, Eleazar, Carmen, Garret." Carlisle greeted them.
The girl was strawberry curls stepped forward, her golden eyes twinkling. She wore a lavender blouse and dark jeans with black boots. "Hello Carlisle." Tanya greeted him. The next girl, who had dark hair and golden eyes as well, stepped forward. The man with red hair pulled back into a ponytail and dark orange eyes stepped with her. Both of them were wearing t-shirts and jeans. "Ah, Garret. It seems you are transforming well." Carlisle amended the vampire. Garret smiled.
The last two stepped forward, both with dark hair and golden eyes. The woman wore a red blouse and dark jeans with no shoes while the man wore a dark t-shirt and dark jeans with no shoes as well.
"Any new discoveries on abilities, Eleazar?" Carlisle asked the man. Eleazar shook his head while Carmen laughed.
Carlisle introduced the vampires to the students and professors. But, after the introductions were done, Edward pulled Bella and Nessie away, just as Tanya called out, "Edward, Bella, Nessie!" Edward paused, cursing quickly under his breath, before turning to the blonde vampire. "Hello, Tanya." Edward greeted through his teeth. Bella sensed he was uncomfortable and rubbed her hand up and down on his arm. Tanya smiled, although glancing at Bella and her smiled slipped.
"So, how are things?" Tanya asked Edward directly. "Good thank you. Bella, it's time for Nessie to sleep. Let's go back to the school and tuck her in." Edward said briskly. With that, Edward and Bella turned on their heels and disappeared from the group.
Once at the school, Bella and Edward helped Nessie in bed and kissed her goodnight. As they shut the door from her dorm, Edward pulled Bella to him and kissed her passionately. Bella threw her hands on his hair, locking them in place.
Once they pulled away from each other, Bella asked, "So Tanya stills stubborn and she still wants you?" Bella asked him with a giggle. Edward nodded. "But, she won't tear us apart." Edward said. With that, he kissed Bella again.
I'm sooooooo sorry if this chapter is soo rushed and short.
I just really, really want to get to the final task really quick!
Not much to say, so bye!
